Chapter 272 Gao Ge’s Guess
Actually, it is not difficult to guess the young swordsman is Xia Shengtang.
It completely depends on the silence of Xia Lu.
A young swordsman that can keep Xia Lu silent. Apart from Xia Shengtang, Gao Ge can’t think of another man.
“He came and left?”
“Yes.”
Gao Ge finally manages to take out the core of Briar, to which a soft and strong power is attached. Instantly, he feels a sense of achievement.
He starts to gouge the core of Bramble again. He must be careful while cutting it open so as not to ruin the hide of the snow bear.
Now Gao Ge becomes like a skillful professional hunter and dressmaker.
“This is yours.” Gao Ge passes a core of beast to Xia Lu, “Anyone who is at present gets one. Here you are!”
“The two bears were killed by my brother. These should be mine!” Xia Lu says disgruntledly.
Gao Ge grins, “That’s why I said anyone who is at present gets one!”
Xia Lu rolls her eyes and doesn’t bother arguing with Gao Ge.
“As to the hide, you and I each take one. And the bear’s-paws, we can grill them and have a good meal.” Gao Ge says with a serious face.
“We must!” Xia Lu says, “People always say the bear’s-paws taste good. I haven’t tasted them before and since the paws belong to the bears in the secret realm, I think it will be greatly helpful for cultivation.”
Gao Ge drags the corpses of the two bears back to the cave and thinks for a while. He suddenly thinks of something and looks at Xia Lu, asking in a low voice, “You told me that the two bears were furious to see the hide on me?”
Xia Lu nods her head. She just mentioned that not long ago. Of course she remembers it.
Gao Ge’s facial expression gets a bit weird. He says in a low voice, “Is it possible that the hides were theirs?”
“Theirs?” Xia Lu is surprised, asking, “We found the hides in the cave...”
Before finishing her words, Xia Lu immediately takes a tumble, saying implausibly, “You mean the two bears were the owners of the cave?”
Gao Ge nods his head and points at the wall, “I noticed some claw prints here, which should be left by the two bears. They regarded us as the thieves.”
Xia Lu suddenly becomes guilty, “In this case, we are the faulty one. We stole their things and killed them...”
Gao Ge snorts, “Then are you going to eat the bear’s-paws or not?”
“Yes!”
Gao Ge bursts out laughing, “I may as well take the corpses of the two bears out of this place. There is no seasoning here so the meat won’t taste good after being cooked. We had better eat it after we get out of the secret realm.”
“Take out?”
“Let me show you a magic show. Close your eyes first.”
Xia Lu is rather in doubt. She closes her eyes and then deliberately opens her eyes quickly.
She wants to see what trick Gao Ge is going to play on earth.
To her surprise, in the blink of eyes, the two bears’ corpses are gone.
“Where are they?”
“In my belly.”
“Hem.” Xia Lu snorts, “Fine. After all, some of the bear’s-paws are mine.”
Gao Ge sighs.
What’s wrong with the world? Why does no one believe him even if he is telling the truth?
“With the two cores of beasts and the meat of the two bears, it is a worthwhile trip for us.” Xia Lu sighs.
By now, Gao Ge uses the word—corpses.
However, Xia Lu refers to them as meat.
Maybe in her eyes, the corpses of the two bears become braised meat in soy sauce, braised meat, steamed meat...
He can’t help trembling with fear.
After running the Star Rotating Method for a while, Gao Ge stands up and walks out of the cave with Xia Lu.
“Do you think Lord Fire Dragon will catch my brother?”
Gao Ge turns around to look at Xia Lu, saying, “In terms of your brother’s capability, do you have to worry about him?”
Xia Lu thinks for a minute and gives a proud smile, “You are right. My brother is rather awesome now!”
In fact, in Gao Ge’s eyes, Xia Shengtang has been quite awesome.
He was awesome too in Jiangnan City.
Gao Ge thinks it over and guesses that the young swordsman who fought with Earth Dragon outside the secret realm must be Xia Shengtang too.
He is very curious why Xia Shengtang can break through to such a level of cultivation within a short period of time.
Earth Dragon has reached the realm of Master but he didn’t take any advantage in the fight with Xia Shengtang. Judging from the tone of Earth Dragon, he seemed to have been beaten.
How strong must he be to give the beating to the strong man at the realm of Master?
As to the current Gao Ge, it is unimaginable for him.
When he saw Xia Shengtang in Jiangnan City, Gao Ge knew that he was no match for Xia Shengtang. However, at that time, Xia Shengtang was not as strong as now. Otherwise, he wouldn’t leave with his body severely injured after having a fight in the Ning Family. Isn’t it easy for a strong man at the realm of Master to handle a small family in Jiangnan City?
Therefore, he doesn’t even dare to believe this.
Is the young swordsman who fought with Earth Dragon really Xia Shengtang?
After thinking for a while, he shakes his head reluctantly.
He can’t get the answer until he meets Xia Shengtang.
Moreover, there are so many lucky chances in the world. It is impossible that all the chances are taken by him. Xia Shengtang must have acquired great lucky chance to facilitate his cultivation within a short period of time, which is not hard to understand.
“Lord Fire Dragon is running after my brother, right?” Xia Lu suddenly says.
Gao Ge has no idea how to react.
It goes without saying.
“Do you think whether my brother is on the opposite side of the Dragon Court?” Xia Lu says.
Gao Get thinks it over and shakes his head, saying, “I think your brother shouldn’t be so silly.”
Xia Lu rolls her eyes and says impatiently, “I’m trying to have a conversation with you.”
Gao Ge turns around to look at her, asking in confusion, “Why do you think I am not having a conversation with you?”
Xia Lu sighs and says, “I am worried whether my brother is targeted by the Dragon Court, for he has done something bad.”
Gao Ge doesn’t answer Xia Lu’s question and falls into thought.
This time, the Dragon Court disclosed the matter of the secret realm to expose those people hiding behind the Heaven School in this way and kill them under the promotion of Gao Ge. It remains unknown whether the plan can work and what those people are up to. Gao Ge is worried whether Xia Shengtang’s rapid progress within a short period of time is related to those people.
Or...
Is Xia Shengtang one of those people?
If Gao Ge’s guess turns out to be true, it is obviously not a good thing. At least Gao Ge doesn’t want to rival against Xia Shengtang. After all, he is Xia Lu’s elder brother and does favor to them for many times.
He heaves a long sigh.
It is not his problem to worry about but he hopes that the situation is not as bad as he thinks.
