The Darling of Heaven Owns a Rip-off Shop

Chapter 936: Chapter 38: Known as the Black Lotus in Jianghu

Dugu Yan stayed behind alone, holding off the pursuing soldiers, while Sheng Yulin led Xu Lang and the others to retreat, and gave the two healing medicines that Tianmiao had given him to Shen Hanshu and Wudang’s chief disciple. After taking them, the two were astonished as their damaged meridians seemed to quickly heal. When they found out the medicine was given by Boss Tian, they weren’t surprised anymore.

"Can Dugu Yan manage on his own?" Tang Fengyue asked worriedly, covering his uncomfortable chest.

"He can. In this world, only he can. Don’t worry; let’s hurry back." Sheng Yulin said confidently.

"I still don’t know what that thing in Bart’s hand was. When the flames surged, I felt a powerful force impacting me. Luckily, Boss Tian gave me this Heart Protection Mirror, otherwise I’d be finished here." Tang Fengyue said with lingering fear.

"I’ve never seen such a concealed weapon either. Luckily, it seemed it could only attack once." Xu Lang chimed in, "Luckily it attacked you. Otherwise, if it were any of us, we’d be dead on the spot. Only you had the Heart Protection Mirror."

"Do you really think it was just coincidence? Why did Boss Tian only give Young Hero Tang the Heart Protection Mirror?" Sheng Yulin suddenly said.

Everyone was stunned.

Was it really a coincidence?

"Sheng Yulin, do you mean Boss Tian anticipated it?" Xu Lang asked.

Sheng Yulin didn’t answer, just tightened his grip on the horse’s belly, increasing speed forward.

Everyone followed quickly, all thinking of returning to Xiangyang City to ask Boss Tian for a clear explanation.

However, when they returned to Xiangyang City, they found the tavern had long been deserted.

Tianmiao was gone, and Kong Hou and Dong Xiao were also nowhere to be seen.

But a few jars of wine were left on the table, as if waiting for them to return in triumph.

"Where’s Boss Tian?" Xu Lang searched the tavern but couldn’t find anyone.

"Gone back." Sheng Yulin pointed towards the sky, said no more, turned to leave, "You’re all back safely, I have nothing else to do. Farewell. Oh, and Boss Tian left a message for you all, to enjoy life and embrace the martial world." After finishing, ignoring the shock of the others behind him, Sheng Yulin left without looking back.

Sheng Yulin left the city and found Dugu Yan rushing back, raising his hand to greet him.

But Dugu Yan didn’t even look at him, speeding up back to the city.

"Stop right there. Are you going to leave behind what Boss Tian left for you?" Sheng Yulin gritted his teeth and said angrily. This cold-faced guy is really infuriating.

Only then did Dugu Yan stop, looked at him, and said coldly, "Give it."

Looking at Dugu Yan’s arrogant demeanor, Sheng Yulin gritted his teeth. So annoying! But he couldn’t beat him, so let it go, patience is a virtue.

Sheng Yulin handed the Jade Scroll to Dugu Yan.

Dugu Yan accepted it, looked at Sheng Yulin, "Did she leave any message?"

"You knew she was going to leave?" Sheng Yulin was now surprised.

"Answer." Dugu Yan didn’t answer Sheng Yulin’s question and said coldly.

"No. I think she probably told you everything she needed to. The goddess truly favors you, I’m so envious." Sheng Yulin snorted, "Nothing else, I’ll be off first." Hey, actually thinking about it, the goddess did give him a permanent youth elixir. Xu Lang got nothing, so at least he’s better than that! Sheng Yulin gleefully rode away.

Dugu Yan stood still, glanced at the Jade Scroll, gently opened it, but strangely, he could only open a part, able to see just the beginning content.
