Chapter 1654: Chapter 1740: Foreigners
"Okay, this time I’ll join your operation. Don’t worry, Lord Pheasant, with the experience I’ve gained over the years, I’m sure I can open the Dragon Gate for you!"
Di Lingtian said excitedly.
"Yoshi, yoshi, very good yoshi!"
Lord Pheasant was thrilled; he had to make Su Xuan pay dearly. How dare he play tricks on him and make him feel like a fool.
When Su Xuan arrived at this vast grassland, he truly felt helpless. He thought about finding Lord Pheasant’s group’s lair. If he managed to find it, with his skills, eliminating them wouldn’t be too difficult.
Earth Damp 24 is powerful, but it doesn’t form all at once; it needs to be activated first to be effective. Without Earth Damp 24, who would he fear?
Unfortunately, even after a long time, he still didn’t know where Di Lingtian and his group were. Just as Su Xuan was about to head back, he suddenly heard a gunshot. In that instant, Su Xuan was surprised; it seemed the desert wouldn’t stay quiet.
The people from Japan didn’t have guns: firstly, because they were martial artists and might not be skilled with firearms; secondly, Huaxia’s strict gun control meant bringing firearms would be problematic if caught.
Su Xuan quickly flipped off his horse, slapped the ground, and took out his binoculars to adjust the focus. Soon, he saw a group of foreign invaders, about twelve in total. Most of them seemed to be muscle-bound men, probably living on beef every day.
Nine out of the twelve were bare-chested, their muscles hard like rocks. In this cold winter, it was uncertain if they were showing off or what, but they hadn’t even worn clothes, putting their muscles on display.
Leading them was a man about Su Xuan’s age, with charming golden hair. It seemed he was the one who fired the shot earlier.
Besides him, there was a woman with blonde hair and blue eyes, quite beautiful.
"Damn, looks like the foreigners are interfering in this matter!"
Su Xuan leaned against the sand dune, wondering how he could use this to his advantage; this was certainly something he could exploit.
Su Xuan rubbed his eyebrows, guessing this group was here for the Dragon Gate Inn. He should check out what was going on.
He activated Dark Strength, making himself appear dehydrated, and fell into the desert. Soon, the foreigners came over.
"Joseph, there’s someone up ahead!"
Shouted a voice, making the foreigners quickly approach Su Xuan, though they remained cautious.
"Looks like he’s dehydrated in the desert! Peter, give him some water. We lack a guide in this desert; we may need him!"
One of the men said quickly. Soon, Su Xuan was given plenty of water. After a while, he coughed and feigned waking up slowly. When he opened his eyes, he looked at them with confusion.
"Who are you guys, and where am I?"
"Young kid, we are God; we saved you!"
Joseph said proudly, while Su Xuan rolled his eyes furiously, thinking damn, how conceited! You call yourself God, yet I could smack you silly without really knowing what you’d look like.
"Thank you, heroes, for saving my life. Your kindness will never be forgotten."
"Haha, young man, we want to ask you what you’re doing in this desert!"
Joseph looked at Su Xuan, curiously asking. Seeing Su Xuan in the desert did raise suspicions; what was he doing here alone?
"I was captured, just because I’m too handsome. The owner of the Dragon Gate Inn took a fancy to me and wanted me as their Wife!"
Su Xuan said seriously.
"..."
Joseph’s group was instantly speechless, thinking damn, this guy really can brag. Is boasting about his looks any use?
"So you know the Dragon Gate Inn!"
Joseph was more interested in the last part. He knew that although they’d entered the Great Desert, finding the Dragon Gate Inn was difficult. Despite its tall structure, without familiar faces, finding the entrance was hard; Su Xuan knew this better than anyone. If it weren’t for Bu Daming, they would have struggled to get inside.
"I know, I was thrown out by them. Guys, can you imagine how annoying it is! Just because I’m too handsome, the innkeeper’s wife fell for me, and I had a great battle with his daughter. Then, they tossed me out. If I hadn’t met you, I’d be in danger!"
"Damn..."
Joseph’s face twitched, thinking how could someone be so vain?
"Kid, can you lead us to the Dragon Gate Inn? If you can, I’ll help you get revenge!"
Joseph said helplessly.
"Is that true?"
"Of course it’s true!"
Joseph looked as if he was trying to trick a child, implying Su Xuan was just a pretty face without any combat strength.
"Alright, then I’ll agree!"
Then Su Xuan led them in circles in the desert. But he wasn’t doing it intentionally; he wanted to see if he could find Di Lingtian’s Underworld. He planned to use these people’s power to play with Di Lingtian’s group and take a look at Earth Damp 24’s power.
"Hey, kid, are you messing with us?"
Looking at Su Xuan, Joseph was growing impatient; they’d walked a long way, yet found nothing.
"No way! I’m telling you, this Dragon Gate Inn is underground, so finding it is not easy. Though I’ve been here before, the desert looks different every day. You agree, don’t you?"
Su Xuan said seriously.
"What? Is the Dragon Gate Inn built underground? Stop spouting nonsense! Don’t think you can trick me just because I haven’t been to Huaxia! I have photographs!"
Joseph said warily, pointing his gun at Su Xuan. The foreigners had grown suspicious, suspecting Su Xuan of deceit.
"Oh, come on, that’s terrifying! Put that thing away, will you!"
