Chapter 145

The way Wu Gui looked at Wang Manyun as she attempted to tag along stayed with her ever since. The only thing she could see in his eyes was nothing but a rigid warning, which sent chills down her spine. He signaled that the consequence of her entrance would be beyond her capacity to bear.

Conversely, Lin Xiao even dared to respond to Wang Di's inquiry. At that moment, Wang Manyun painted several pictures of the forthcoming disasters that would befall Lin Xiao.

However, she soon realized that her speculation didn't prove right at all.

Hardly had Lin Xiao's voice faded away when the Furnace Hall's gate opened. Then Wang Di and Wu Gui came into Wang Manyun's sight, looking extremely respectful. That appeared as if Lin Xiao had been the patriarch instead of a regular Taixuan disciple.

Wang Manyun went slack-jawed and failed to come to the terms of what she saw. She wondered, "What's going on? Did they get hit by the furnaces and end up brain-dead accordingly? Or are they blinded by the heat in the Furnace hall?"

Seeing their clothes giving off vapor and faces crimsoning, Wang Manyun attributed it to the second of the above-mentioned factors. She grasped Lin Xiao's hand forthwith and attempted to take him away. She thought they would better off getting out of Wu Gui's sight before he came back to himself.

Nevertheless, Lin Xiao's reaction almost rendered her angry to death he persisted to stay as if he had been deeply rooted there. Instead, he continued to speak, "You are indeed hard-working, but you can't just turn off a little girl just for the sake of pellet production. That's way too rude."

"Okay, it's destined to be his doomsday today. He not only procrastinated and failed to make a timely escape, but also ventured to speak to Wu Gui like that, " Wang Manyun wondered and turned ghostly pale.

However, she soon got thunder-struck again, as Wu Gui and her own brother apologized to her in a respectful tone forthwith, "Martial Sister Manyun, we're dreadfully sorry. Please come in." "Manyun...No, Martial Sister, do come in."

Seeing WU Gui and her brother trying to please her, Wang Manyun went baffled and wondered, "What in the world is all this?"

Since she had no idea about Lin Xiao's status in the eyes of Wu Gui and Wang Di now, it was conceivable that she could hardly understand why they behaved in such a weird manner.

In order to avoid any suspicions, Wu Gui and Wang Di attended the pellet allocation the other day. For their part, the emotional impact posed by the pellet allocation on them was even more powerful than on the other disciples. Apart from that, they got thrilled to the fullest in their life, as it was they who produced the Last Breath Pellets. Though they were unable to sign their names of them, they still felt terribly honored. There was no such thing that could be more exciting than a wide-recognition of the pellets one produced himself.

And all the credit went to Lin Xiao. Without him, they would never have had a chance to experience that. Though they had already held Lin Xiao in high esteem, they worshiped him to an incredible extent on realizing they were able to produce more powerful pellets with Lin Xiao's guidance.

Therefore, they would act on every signal of Lin Xiao, even if he didn't verbalize them.

On hearing Lin Xiao's inquiry, they assumed that Lin Xiao was blaming them on slighting Wang Manyun, hence they hastened to apologize to her in fear and trepidation. And it was funny that Wang Di even dared not to call her sister anymore.

Wang Manyun had no idea in the slightest about the reason why they treated her like that. Neither did Lin Xiao.

Although Lin Xiao boasted supreme intelligence, it never crossed his mind that their respect came down to the pellets. As a matter of fact, the Most Refined Royal Pellets and the Last Breath Pellets were just about average in Lin Xiao's eyes.

Hence, seeing the two fixed their glazed eyes on him, Lin Xiao mocked them as well, "What's got into you? You went nuts because of the pellet production?'

The two felt at their wit's end, not knowing how to respond to that.

"Well. Act normal okay? And leave the pellet production for a minute, I have a word with you," Lin Xiao added.

On hearing that, Wu Gui and Wang Di stood up straight immediately, looking like two soldiers waiting for instructions.

"I wanna study the Fiendish Blockade Method of the Suomo Sect. Any idea where we can snatch up a Suomo disciple?" Lin Xiao asked.

"Martial Brother, that's out of the question!" Wu Gui hastened to respond with agitation on hearing Lin Xiao's proposal. However, Lin Xiao's glimpse soon silenced him.
