If Qiangu Yunche remembers correctly, the description of the relationship between Xu Jiawei and Dai Hao in the original work is as inconsistent as Schrödinger's Shrek City Lord.
In the early days of Soul Master Tournament, Xu Jiawei and Dai Hao seemed to be as close as one family, but gradually things started to get a bit different after that.
At first Qiangu Yunche was not sure about Xu Jiawei's exact attitude towards Dai Hao, but after today's exchange, Qiangu Yunche already understood.
After thinking for a while, Qiangu Yunche said softly:
Huo Yuhao's hatred for everyone in the White Tiger Duke Mansion is so deep that he doesn't even need guidance from others. He will definitely seek revenge when he is strong enough.
If it were me, I wouldn't deliberately take care of it, but if there is an opportunity to deepen the conflict between the two parties or to provide guidance, I will not miss it."
Xu Jiujiu nodded, "You are thinking the same thing as me. If nothing happens later, this is probably what I will do."
The two walked along the perimeter of Star Luo Plaza for a while, and the street in front of them became increasingly lively. The shops on both sides of the road projected brilliant lights. Most of the passers-by were well-dressed, and many of them were even wearing the uniforms of the college. At first glance, they were members of the college who came to participate in the competition.
After walking for a while, Xu Jiujiu suddenly pulled Qiangu Yunche's hand again, and then pointed in a direction.
"Yun Che, look, are they the brother and sister from the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy over there?"
Qiangu Yunche looked in the direction of Xu Jiujiu's finger and immediately saw the slim girl in the crowd.
Compared to the school uniform she wore during the day, Meng Hongchen put on a white dress at this time. Her long burgundy hair fluttered in the warm night wind, and her big blue eyes looked particularly bright, even more beautiful than the eyes of Xiao Hongchen next to her.
Well, if Xu Jiujiu hadn't been talking about brother and sister, Qiangu Yunche might not have been able to notice the tired look on Xiao Hongchen's face.
But I have to say that women's physical strength and energy when shopping are indeed terrible.
This can be seen from Xiao Hongchen's expression.
Well, Qiangu Yunche had the same feeling when he went shopping with Xu Jiujiu.
There is no doubt that the five-ringed Soul Master and above have a sense of perception. Soon after Qiangu Yunche and Xu Jiujiu stared at the two, Meng Hongchen who was in high spirits and Xiao Hongchen who looked tired also noticed their gazes.
Turning around, the moment their eyes met, Meng Hongchen and Xiao Hongchen had a look of surprise and astonishment on their faces.
But after coming back to his senses, Meng Hongchen's eyes lit up, and then he dragged Xiao Hongchen away from the crowd and towards the two of them.
After a while, Meng Hongchen, who finally stood in front of the two of them, threw away his oil bottle brother, and then said with the most perfect smile:
"Hello, my name is Meng Hongchen. We should have met in the rest area during the day today. I thought you should have noticed us at that time."
Qiangu Yunche and Xu Jiujiu nodded, but before they could speak, Xiao Hongchen, who was behind Meng Hongchen, who originally looked reluctant, suddenly squeezed away his sister, then confidently tossed his hair and said:
"I am Xiao Hongchen, Meng's brother. The two of us are here to challenge you. Just wait, Meng and I will definitely trample you severely in the next competition."
Meng Hongchen:"???"
"Get out of here." Meng Hongchen kicked Xiao Hongchen away, then calmly moved away from his brother, and then said:
"Don't listen to my brother's nonsense. He is used to being a middle school student. If he doesn't brag for a day, he will feel uncomfortable all over. I just want to make friends with you and get to know him..."
Xu Jiujiu said with a smile, "We are members of the Star Luo National Academy, and you are from the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy. Little sister, our positions are different. It seems that we can only be rivals or enemies..."
Meng Hongchen was stunned for a moment when she heard this, as if she didn't expect Xu Jiujiu's position and understanding to be so clear. After a moment of silence, she continued:
"Soul Fighting Tournament is originally intended to promote cultural exchanges between the four countries, and the basic concept of the competition is also to promote Soul Master World vitality and peace on the mainland. Although we have different positions, it doesn't matter if we make friends."
Xu Jiujiu and Qiangu Yunche looked at each other, then smiled and extended their hands.
"Xu Jiujiu, nice to meet you."
"Qiangu Yunche."
After gently shaking hands with Xu Jiujiu, Meng Hongchen was about to shake Qiangu Yunche's hand when Xiao Hongchen, who got up from the ground, suddenly took the lead and took Qiangu Yunche's hand.
"Ahem, Qiangu Yunche, right? The name matches mine. No matter how you say it, I will remember you."
Xiao Hongchen didn't like this boy who his sister fell in love with at first sight, so forget it Xu Jiujiu. After all, the other boy was a girl, so the two girls wouldn't suffer anything if they shook hands and stuck each other, but Xiao Hongchen would never allow Qiangu Yunche to get close to his sister.
Qiangu Yunche raised his eyebrows and felt Xiao Hongchen holding his hand with force, as if he wanted to give him a blow.
And the fact is just as he thought, Xiao Hongchen is not yet fifteen years old this year, but he has already achieved Soul King level cultivation through various means, without leaving too many sequelae, and he has with the blood of mythical beasts. Three-Legged Golden Toad Martial Soul is undoubtedly one of the top Martial Soul in the world. With the blessing of various factors, Xiao Hongchen is extremely confident that it can suppress Qiangu Yunche in terms of strength.
But the idea is beautiful, and the reality is very skinny.
As he continued to increase his strength, not only did Qiangu Yunche's face show no trace of pain, but he still had a smile on his face.
Just when Xiao Hongchen noticed something was wrong and was about to take back his hand, Qiangu Yunche suddenly held his hand instead.
The next moment, Xiao Hongchen's eyes suddenly opened wide, and an imperceptible hiss escaped from his throat.
He only felt as if his hand was sandwiched between two giant beasts. The terrifying force and pressure made him almost breathless.
But in order to take care of his own face, he endured the severe pain as if his hand bones had been crushed and stood there without saying a word.
After a stalemate for a while, Xu Jiujiu and Meng Hongchen finally realized something was wrong.
Meng Hongchen stepped forward and patted Xiao Hongchen's shoulder. Looking at the cold sweat falling down Xiao Hongchen's cheeks, he asked tentatively:
"Brother, are you okay?"
"No, it's okay. I'm just a little acclimated." The confident smile on Xiao Hongchen's face was a little distorted, but he still didn't say a word.
Just when Meng Hongchen was about to ask again, Qiangu Yunche suddenly let go of Xiao Hongchen's hand.
But before Xiao Hongchen could breathe a sigh of relief, Qiangu suddenly reached out and hugged his shoulders, and then smiled:
"Brother Hongchen has come from afar, so we, as hosts, naturally have to express our gratitude. Star Luo Empire's local cuisine is specially designed to treat people who are not accustomed to the local climate. Come on, I will take Brother Hongchen to taste it."
With that said, Qiangu Yunche didn't care whether Xiao Hongchen wanted to or not, so he dragged him away.
Meng Hongchen was confused behind him.
It was clear that just now my brother was displeased with Qiangu Yunche, so why did the two of them end up hooking up in the blink of an eye?
And when will local dishes be able to cure the acclimatization...
No, my brother is Soul King. Hey, how can he be so acclimatized?
When Meng Hongchen figured this out, Xiao Hongchen, who was "held hostage" by Qiangu Yunche, reluctantly turned his head, and then mouthed two words.
The two brothers and sisters had a good understanding of each other. Meng Hongchen could tell at a glance that those two words meant "save me."
Before she could recover from the shock and confusion, Xu Jiujiu behind her smiled softly:
"Don't think too much, Yun Che was just joking with your brother.
It's just that the boys' way of joking is a bit barbaric, but that's it, there won't be any other problems.
Let's leave them alone and I'll take you to have some midnight snacks..."
After hearing Xu Jiujiu's explanation, Meng Hongchen nodded in understanding.
After weighing things up, she waved her hand towards Xiao Hongchen, who was still winking at her crazily, and then shouted:
"Brother, come back early after you finish playing. I have something else to do, so I won't go with you."
She has no interest at all in joining in the fun with her pretending brother, but having supper with a beautiful sister, Miss Meng said, who would she rather have than me!
Seeing the figure of his closest sister leaving with Xu Jiujiu, Xiao Hongchen's expression of being betrayed in the distance completely solidified and he almost couldn't get up without a breath before he fell over. In the end, it was Qiangu Yunche who supported him...
