With the conflict between Jiu You Palace and Blood Eagle Hall set aside, the meeting returned to normal. Jiu You remained silent throughout, until the meeting finally ended.
After the meeting, Jiu You immediately left the hall with Liu Bai and the Tang sisters, leaving Blood Eagle King, who had been planning to mock them a little, with no chance to do so. This put him in a foul mood.
But compared to his irritation, Xu Qing beside Asura King was even more disappointed. He had finally worked up the courage to speak with Jiu You, only for her to leave right away.
On the way back, Liu Bai looked at Jiu You and teased, "Why did you leave so quickly? I saw Xu Qing staring at you the whole time. He seemed to have gathered a lot of courage to come talk to you. Aren't you crushing him by leaving like that?"
Jiu You shot Liu Bai a knife-sharp glare and said coldly, "If you want to die, keep talking..."
Liu Bai: "..."
The Tang sisters watched the two bicker from behind and could not help covering their mouths as they snickered.
Jiu You gave a soft snort and withdrew her gaze. "I've already given you the opportunity I promised. Whether you can seize it depends on you. Also, it would be best if you settle your Supreme Dharma Body before the Great Luo Golden Pool opens. Otherwise, even if you win and enter the Great Luo Golden Pool, what use will that be?"
"Don't worry. Two months is more than enough!" Liu Bai patted his chest, brimming with confidence.
"Good luck."
Tang Bing and Tang Rou exchanged glances before softly offering Liu Bai their encouragement as well.
Their nearly identical beautiful faces held the same hope and anticipation.
