Chapter 111 - 1300 Gold Coins In The Pocket

nZhao Luo with a sincere smile on his face watched the disciples who were bowing to him as they showed him their gratitude.
n
"Brother, have you forgiven me too?
"
nZhao Luo heard a disciple saying.
n'Nod.'
nZhao Luo nodded but the situation didn't end there.
nAfter a moment, the disciples would come up to him one by one and speak to him just to confirm if Zhao Luo didn't hold anything against them.
n
"Yes, yes, it's okay.
"
nZhao Luo kept on telling them but there was no end.
nEveryone wanted to confirm for themselves.
nAfter the 40th person coming up to Zhao Luo just to confirm that Zhao Luo was annoyed to the brink of explosion.
n'Shwaa.'
nZhao Luo brought out his sword from his storage space.
nHe had chosen Blackey for this occasion.
n
"The next one who walks up to me will have his head fall to the ground.*Ting*. I already said I won't hold any grudge against you so stop bugging me.
"
nZhao Luo snapped his finger on the dark and shining blade of Blackey as he held it while facing it towards the disciples.
n
"We are sorry.
"
nThe disciples hurriedly clasped their hands as they started leaving Zhao Luo.
n
"So, Brother Zhao Luo can get mad too.
"
n
"He is always mad at me. What are you talking about?
"
nHong Ling and Might started commenting on the frowning Zhao Luo.
n'Gulp.'
nMight who was talking about Zhao Luo being mad always felt coldness enveloping his body as he looked at Zhao Luo who was glaring at him through the sides of his eyes.
n
"Stop annoying him.
"
nYan told while looking at Mite as Zhao Luo walked back to them.
nZhao Luo looked around and found something amiss.
n
"How many hours were we inside the capsule world for?
"
nZhao Luo asked his friends.
n
"Around 30 hours.
"
n
"No, it was for 25 hours.
"
n
"No, we were on the Dragon Road for 32 hours.
"
nWu Yang, Mite, and even Feng Mei had joined the argument.
nA simple question had turned into a discussion of life and death.
n'Pat', Zhao Luo had put his hand on Feng Mei's head gently.
n
"Stop it.
"
nZhao Luo stopped them from arguing.
n
"We may have been in here for around two days but look around, it's still morning here.
"
nZhao Luo said as the sun was still shining brightly on the training hall.
n
"The Fu Zi world is indeed a mystical relic. Not more than thirty minutes have passed outside but in there we were in the Dragon Road for so long.
"
nWu Yang explained to them as he also looked amazed.
n
"We should go back.
"
nZhao Luo suddenly said right after Wu Yang finished explaining.
nThus after Zhao Luo said that, along with the other disciples who were leaving the training area, they also went towards the exit of the training area.
nWhile walking Zhao Luo had Feng Mei on his right who was holding his hand and Wu Yang on the left side while others were walking three steps behind them.
nEveryone had gotten close while completing the Dragon Road so they were talking without focusing on Zhao Luo.
nZhao Luo took this chance to question Wu Yang.
n
"The three missions are done. I think we all can become outer disciples. Is the last mission that important?
"
nZhao Luo knew that even those around him were able to advance to outer disciple right away but he still had the last mission left.
n
"You need to complete the last mission too for the greater good.
"
nWu Yang answered him with a mysterious look on his face.
nZhao Luo stared at Wu Yang for a moment but couldn't make anything out of it as the word 'greater good' kept on ringing out in his mind.
n'I just have to find the secret disciples.'
nZhao Luo wondered that just finding out the identity of the disciple that he had to defeat would be the hard part. Once he found out who the secret disciple was,
n
"I will defeat him.
", Zhao Luo mumbled as he clenched his fists.
nThis would be the last mission that he had to complete before he could advance to an outer disciple.
nWhile these thoughts kept on popping up in his mind, Zhao Luo went towards the Hut Zone.
nThe only thing he wanted to do now was to rest in his room.
nAfter a long day or to be precise, a day which felt long but wasn't, there was nobody who wouldn't want to chill alone.
nAs they entered the Hut zone, Su Shi and Feng Mei were the first to leave the group.
nThis continued till only Zhao Luo and Wu Yang were left alone.
n
"Let's complete the last mission tomorrow.
"
nZhao Luo told Wu Yang as the one who had been like a guide to him all this time was Wu Yang.
n
"There won't be any need to complete it tomorrow.
"
nWu Yang whispered to himself as they walked towards Zhao Luo's room as it was the Hut that came before Wu Yang's.
n
"Did you say something?
"
nZhao Luo had a feeling that Wu Yang was talking to him but he couldn't quite get it.
n
"No, I didn't.
"
nWu Yang lied straight out of his face while his expression remained the same.
n'Hmmm.'
nZhao Luo wondered as he didn't dwell on the fact that Wu Yang was acting weird.
nAfter walking for a while.
n
"My destination is here, mister driver. Thank you for dropping me off.
"
nZhao Luo suddenly notified Wu Yang cutely who was walking behind him.
n
"What?
"
nWu Yang was confused by Zhao Luo's sudden attack which was filled with cuteness.
n
"Ba-dump.
"
nWu Yang's heart started beating faster as he clenched his fist.
n
"Did you fall for me just now? Hahaha.
"
nZhao Luo laughed as he messed around with Wu Yang more.
nBut the truth was that Wu Yang hadn't fallen for Zhao Luo but he felt that Zhao Luo's acting was so cringing that Wu Yang felt his blood pressure rising and his heart throbbing while telling him to punch Zhao Luo. But Wu Yang barely stopped himself from doing so.
n
"As if.
"
nWu Yang added while looking away from Zhao Luo and loosening his fist.
n
"I am going in now.
"
nZhao Luo told him as he opened the door of his hut.
n
"Zhao Luo.
"
nWu Yang suddenly called him out.
nZhao Luo turned around to look at him.
n
"Yeah.
"
nZhao Luo replied.
nUnder the shining sky of the day, Wu Yang who was looking embarrassed for some reason and hesitant, Zhao Luo did not doubt that it was 'that'.
n'He is going to confess.'
nZhao Luo thought as he grinned.
n
"Meet me at the training area at 12.
"
nWu Yang told him before racing away from outside of his hut.
nZhao Luo was left speechless by Wu Yang's weird request which felt more like an order to him.
n'It's 2 now.'
nZhao Luo felt relieved as he could still train for more than 9 hours.
nAfter a short while, Zhao Luo was already lying on his bed while looking at the ceiling of his room. Many things were going around in his mind.
nBefore Zhao Luo would just enter his mental world, the dark space to train but not today.
nHe had gone through a lot in the last hour that was equal to around some thirty hours in the Fu Zi World.
nThe one image that kept on appearing in his head most frequently was the time when he and Yan were going to kiss each other.
nWhile the other one was the moment the third elder had turned around and he finally saw the half battlefield zone on the third elder's head.
nThe moment he got betrayed.
nThe fight with the monwolf...
nThe reward pouch...
n
"The pouch.
"
nZhao Luo instead of entering his mental took out the leather pouch from his storage.
nHe opened the pouch and flipped it on his bed. The pouch having its open area facing the bed starting dropping the contents inside it.
n
"Ting, Ting, Ting.
"
nZhao Luo's room was filled with the sound of coins hitting coins as the pouch kept on throwing out more and more coins.
nThere were so many coins that came out of the pouch that Zhao Luo's bed, now had a small pyramid made out of coins on it.
n
"1..
"
n
"2..
"
n
"3..
"
n
"Huff, huff
", Zhao Luo's breathing hastened as he kept in counting the coins.
nHe wasn't a greedy man but there were just too many **ing gold coins in front of him.
n
"18..
"
n.
n.
n
"78..
"
n.
n
"147..
"
n.
n
"300..
"
n.
n
"490..
"
n.
n
"1300..
"
n
"I am rich.
"
nZhao Luo shouted as he threw the coins up while feeling pure bliss.
n
"If there were so many coins in the pouch then why did the disciples fight?
"
nZhao Luo wondered as he couldn't understand the reason behind the falling out with each other.
nBut it didn't take long for him to realize the truth as he looked at the shining gold coins that were scattered around his room.
n
"There were just too many that's why.
"
nZhao Luo said as he fell backward to lie on his bed again.
n
"Sigh.
"
nInstead of entering the dark space, Zhao Luo fell asleep.
nBut before falling into a deep sleep, he did felt that he was forgetting something important.
n
