Going Out for a Stroll, Meeting Big Shots Again
After single-handedly defeating the Ming Yu Sect, the Shrek team did not linger at the arena and returned directly to the Mingyue Hotel.
Since there weren't many teams worth paying attention to in this morning's matches, Tang Sect's match is in the afternoon, while Sun Moon Team, Holy Spirit Sect, and Body Sect have all been scheduled for tomorrow.
The second round of Elimination Match will be completed in the next two days.
In fact, Zhou Huan didn't care too much about who his opponent was, since he couldn't beat him anyway.
Whether or not I go to watch the game live depends entirely on my mood.
Since entering Mingdu, in addition to observing the safety of the surrounding environment, Zhou Huan has mainly been doing one thing: sending his Ant Army and Cockroach Army to search for the Sun Moon Empire's armory.
There are over a dozen level -Level Nine Soul Tool Shell there, as well as thousands or even tens of thousands of level-five and level-six Soul Tool Shell.
This stuff can't be wasted.
If it were to follow the original trajectory and Huo Gua, it would truly be against the natural order.
Zhou Huan also didn't want to see more than a third of Mingdu destroyed; there were too many innocent civilians killed or injured.
An enemy country is an enemy country, and war is war. Zhou Huan wouldn't care how many people died or were injured on the battlefield, but it's hard to justify going to someone else's capital and bombing civilians.
Even if Huo Gua were unintentional, it doesn't mean they can be forgiven.
Therefore, now that he had come to Mingdu, Zhou Huan still wanted to try his best to avoid the possibility of Mingdu being bombed.
Moreover, Zhou Huan had his own plans for moving this batch of Soul Tool Shell.
Therefore, after returning from the East Suburb Arena, Zhou Huan, unusually, did not go to find Zhang Lexuan, but instead returned to his room to continue using his "Heavenly Eye" to investigate Mingdu.
By noon, based on his knowledge of Mingdu from the original novel and his continuous exploration over the past few days, he finally pinpointed the exact location of the Mingdu armory.
However, it's impossible for me to become a kind-hearted porter right now.
I have to do this right before I leave Mingdu.
After withdrawing his gaze, Zhou Huan was in high spirits. If he could obtain these Level Nine Soul Guidance Cannons, his trip to Mingdu would not have been in vain.
So, to celebrate finding the armory, Zhou Huan decided to go to the Fragrance Filled Pavilion for a big meal with Zhang Lexuan.
Unfortunately, it was lunchtime, Mingdu is already crowded, especially during the competition, so there were even more people coming and going. Without a reservation, we couldn't have a meal at the Fragrance Filled Pavilion.
A little disappointed.
At this moment, Zhou Huan thought of the two powerful figures in Wang Qingya's family.
As expected, having money and power makes things much easier, and one can eat and drink without worry.
Zhang Lexuan, standing to the side, said nonchalantly, "Forget it, let's just find some small restaurants to eat at, or we can eat back at the hotel."
Zhou Huan took Zhang Lexuan's hand and said, "Let's go for a walk, since we're already out."
What's it like having a girlfriend who doesn't like shopping?
Anyway, Zhou Huan felt that besides having more carefree days in the future, it seemed like there was a lack of dating shows right now.
There's nothing we can do about it; there's nowhere to watch a movie here.
The two quickly found a small restaurant with seats, ate a hearty meal, and then continued strolling Mingdu hand in hand.
It must be said that although Mingdu is a metropolis with towering buildings, resembling a steel forest, it also has its unique scenery.
At this very moment, Zhou Huan and Zhang Lexuan arrived at a huge artificial lake with a diameter of about five or six hundred meters.
The lake is shaded by willow trees, and lotus flowers bloom throughout the lake. There are also about a dozen viewing pavilions built on the lake.
Furthermore, the artificial lake is surrounded by colorful Soul Guidance Lamp, which shows considerable attention to detail for a free recreational area.
It's midday now; it would be even more charming if we came in the evening.
Even during the day, there are quite a few people visiting this place.
In the dozen or so viewing pavilions on the lake, there were only two or three tourists scattered around.
Zhou Huan and Zhang Lexuan randomly picked a pavilion and walked over, thinking, "Since we're already here, we should at least take a look."
Although there are no empty pavilions, everyone can just look at their own space; it won't cause any problems.
However, when Zhou Huan approached the pavilion, he was taken aback when he saw a man and a woman inside.
This... this is just too damn coincidental!
It's true what they say, you can meet big shots anywhere in life!
We even had dinner together last night!
The young couple before us... uh, no, this seemingly perfect couple, who else could they be but Wang Qingya's parents?
What?
Why didn't Zhou Huan check who was in the pavilion beforehand? But what normal person would do that?
Does accompanying your girlfriend shopping mean you have to constantly check who's around?
Living like this is so boring.
However, now is not the time to think about that. Having met real big shots like Wang Tizhou and Ling Suzhen, Zhou Huan naturally had to greet them respectfully, "Uncle Wang, Aunt Ling, what a coincidence."
Wang Tizhou was also somewhat surprised. Less than 24 hours had passed, and he had already run into the little guy again. So he smiled and said, "It's quite a coincidence. I heard from Little Ya'er that Shrek had a match today, didn't they? It's over so quickly?"
Zhou Huan nodded and said, "Yes, it's over. It was the first match, so it ended relatively early."
At this moment, Ling Suzhen noticed that Zhou Huan was still holding the hand of the girl beside him, so she said, "Why are you two so busy talking? Zhou Huan, aren't you going to introduce this girl?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Huan scratched his head and smiled, saying, "This is my girlfriend, Zhang Lexuan. She's the Senior Disciple Sister of Shrek Inner Court."
Then, Zhou Huan looked at Zhang Lexuan and said, "Sister Lexuan, Uncle Wang and Aunt Ling are Qingya's parents."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Lexuan's gaze flickered slightly. From the beginning, she had found it somewhat strange that Zhou Huan would call such a young couple "uncle" and "aunt."
Moreover, Zhou Huan's attitude was very respectful. Others might not have noticed anything, assuming it was just respect for an elder, but how could his girlfriend not have noticed at all?
Now that Zhou Huan has explained it this way, Zhang Lexuan finds it even more amazing. These two people don't look like Wang Qingya's parents at all; you'd be more like Wang Qingya's older brother or sister.
However, Zhang Lexuan was a worldly girl after all, so she quickly and politely said, "Hello, Uncle Wang, hello, Aunt Ling."
According to seniority, she is of the same generation as Zhou Huan and Wang Qingya.
Therefore, Zhang Lexuan could only address the couple, who looked to be around her age, as "Uncle" and "Auntie."
However, given her personality, she didn't see anything wrong with it.
Looking at the gentle-spoken and beautiful girl in front of her, Ling Suzhen seemed to have a good impression of Zhang Lexuan, and smiled as she said, "Girl, you are really beautiful."
She doesn't just judge people by their appearance; most importantly, she values their character and demeanor.
Clearly, Zhang Lexuan fits Ling Suzhen's aesthetic perfectly; she has the look of a well-bred young lady.
Unfortunately, she couldn't cultivate this kind of temperament in Little Ya'er from a young age; it just goes to show that some things are truly innate.
Hearing Ling Suzhen's sincere praise, Zhang Lexuan felt a little shy and could only smile gently, feeling that the aunt's gaze was a little too enthusiastic.
Zhou Huan, standing to the side, didn't think anything of it. After all, his girlfriend was very beautiful, so wasn't it normal for others to compliment her?
Afterwards, Zhou Huan and Zhang Lexuan chatted with the two big shots for another ten minutes or so. The conversation mainly revolved around Wang Qingya's life at Shrek, which the two big shots listened to with great interest and sighed repeatedly.
After all, the college life I hear from my daughter is definitely different from the observations I hear from her classmates.
Most children living away from home tend to report only good news and not bad.
Even with their High God-level cultivation, Wang Tizhou and Ling Suzhen couldn't possibly observe Wang Qingya every moment, as such behavior would clearly be disrespectful to their daughter.
Everyone needs privacy.
Therefore, these two bigwigs only had protective measures in place for their daughters.
As for spying on my daughter's life, that's impossible.
Therefore, when Zhou Huan talks about Wang Qingya's interesting stories from college, Wang Tizhou and Ling Suzhen, as parents, also find it very interesting.
After a long and pleasant conversation, Wang Tizhou and Ling Suzhen, this perfect couple, finally left.
Now that only the two of them were left in the pavilion, Zhang Lexuan finally asked the question that had been on her mind, "Uncle Wang and Aunt Ling seem to be very nice people, and their speech is also quite refined, but your behavior is different from how you treat others. Even when facing Xuan Zi and those elders of the Sea God Pavilion Elder, you didn't have this attitude, did you?"
Zhou Huan smiled helplessly and said, "Is it that obvious?"
Zhang Lexuan shook her head. "It's not obvious. You've been very subtle. People who don't know you well definitely won't notice anything, and Uncle Wang and Aunt Ling naturally won't find anything amiss. But how could I not see through your intentions?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Huan gently hugged Zhang Lexuan and said, "It's alright, Sister Lexuan naturally understands me."
Zhang Lexuan leaned comfortably on Zhou Huan's shoulder. "Is there something wrong between Uncle Wang and Aunt Ling?"
Zhou Huan simply waved his left hand, instantly shielding the entire pavilion with the Floating Pagoda, before transmitting his voice. "It's not that it's wrong, but rather, Uncle Wang and Aunt Ling are both experts at the God level or above."
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhang Lexuan looked up in a daze, staring at Zhou Huan, who was serious and not joking, and remained silent for a long time.
