Douluo: The Thousand-Faced Angel in Dragon King

Chapter 54: Using money to rescue people, two people compete

Gu Yuena's eyes lit up when she heard this. Since she transformed, she had fallen in love with shopping for some reason, especially with Qian Mo, so she immediately agreed.

The two of them strolled from day to night, trying on clothes, buying jewelry, and eating delicious food along the way, having a lot of fun.

At night, Qian Mo and Gu Yuena were buying seafood skewers at a small stall in the brightly lit night market when Qian Mo suddenly received a call. After answering the call, his expression suddenly became strange.

Gu Yuena was eating some delicious grilled squid. Seeing this, she couldn't help but ask, "Who's calling?"

Qian Mo suppressed the corners of his mouth, his eyes full of smiles, "It was Li Zhi. He said he was eating out and didn't bring any money. The store owner held him there and asked me to bring money to rescue him."

Gu Yuena burst out laughing, "No, there really are people who eat out without money!"

"Let's go and rescue him."

Qian Mo brought Gu Yuena to a seafood restaurant. As soon as they entered, they saw Ye Xinglan and Xu Lizhi squatting against the wall like prisoners, and the restaurant owner was staring at them closely.

"Don't worry, boss. My friend will be here soon and will definitely pay for the meal today!" Xu Lizhi said to the restaurant owner with a big smile on his face.

After saying that, Xu Lizhi caught a glimpse of Qian Mo and Gu Yuena entering the room, and quickly waved and shouted, "Brother Mo, Sister Na, I'm here, come and save me."

The guests in the restaurant were attracted by the shouting and couldn't help but look over here. Ye Xinglan, who was next to Xu Lizhi, turned her head away consciously. She really wanted to find a crack to crawl into.

Qian Mo tried hard to control the corners of his mouth, but they still rose slightly, and his whole body was shaking uncontrollably from trying to hold back his laughter.

"Pay for his meal!" Qian Mo handed the black card to the restaurant owner and looked at Xu Lizhi and Ye Xinglan who stood up with a smile on his face.

Ye Xinglan's pretty face flushed red, her head almost drooped to her chest, and she rubbed her toes back and forth on the ground, as if she was trying to dig out a three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment.

Xu Lizhi looked at Qian Mo helplessly and said, "Brother Mo, laugh if you want to!"

Qian Mo burst into laughter and said, "Hahaha, Li Zhi, as Shrek Academy students, we shouldn't be short of money, right? How come you don't even bring money when you go out to eat, and neither of you does?"

Xu Lizhi said aggrievedly, "Someone invited me to dinner, so I didn't bring any money. But I didn't expect that person to run away under the pretext of going to the restroom."

"No, it doesn't make sense that someone would treat you to a meal and you wouldn't bring any money." Gu Yuena couldn't help laughing and teased with her hand covering her mouth.

Qian Mo patted Xu Lizhi's shoulder and said earnestly, "Be more careful next time and bring enough money with you when you go out."

"Come to think of it, who treated you two to dinner? How can you run away?" Gu Yuena asked curiously.

"It's a friend Xu Lizhi made through some unknown means, his name is Tang Wulin." Ye Xinglan raised his head, his eyes blazing with fire. He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth as he spoke, "I'm going to make him pay!"

……

The next day, Qian Mo and Gu Yuena decided to come and watch the Tianhai Alliance competition. As soon as they entered the stadium, they saw Ye Xinglan and Tang Wulin confronting each other.

"Brother Mo!" the sharp-eyed Xu Lizhi shouted.

"What is this for?" Qian Mo asked in pretended confusion.

Xu Lizhi said helplessly, "Because Wu Lin ran away yesterday, we were almost left to wash dishes in the restaurant. Sister Xinglan was so angry that she specially entered the competition to fight Wu Lin."

"Come and persuade Sister Xinglan," Xu Lizhi requested.

Elsewhere, Tang Wulin also noticed Qian Mo's arrival. He quietly looked him over. Qian Mo, now dressed in a white windbreaker, had lost the edge he had worn on the competition stage the previous day. His aura was even more holy and noble. He even sensed a hint of warmth from Qian Mo beside him. Qian Mo naturally noticed the look in Tang Wulin's eyes and nodded slightly, finally meeting the Chosen One from the original novel.

Gu Yuena beside him said nothing, lowered her head, and her amethyst-like eyes were full of disbelief.

How could it be, how could that boy have that guy's scent, and it's so strong?
"Okay, very good. I want to see how capable you are!"

Ye Xinglan hurled harsh words at Tang Wulin, then turned and walked towards Qian Mo. Qian Mo stepped forward and nodded, "You can compete, but be careful. I think this Tang Wulin is no ordinary man."

"Hmph! Ah Mo, you're only trying to boost his morale and destroy your own prestige." Ye Xinglan wrinkled her nose and said arrogantly, "How could a young spirit master from a remote village be so extraordinary?"

"A golden phoenix can emerge from a mud nest. Don't underestimate the heroes of the world!" Qian Mo said meaningfully.

Gu Yuena's heart trembled slightly. Did Qian Mo see something? Then wouldn't she also...

Ye Xinglan and Qian Mo exchanged deep gazes for a long while before finally letting out a sigh of relief. He whispered, "I know, Ah Mo. I think I'll give it my all and won't underestimate the opponent."

Qian Mo nodded with satisfaction, because he often discussed swordsmanship with Ye Xinglan. She is now much stronger than at this time in the original novel. As long as he doesn't get careless, if he could defeat her in the original novel, it would be even easier to defeat her now.

"Oh, Brother Mo, didn't I ask you to persuade Sister Xinglan? Why did you let her take it seriously?" Xu Lizhi said with tears in his eyes.

Qian Mo rolled his eyes, "It's just a one-time competition and it's over. It's nothing!"

At this moment, Tang Wulin's surprised voice suddenly rang out.

"Dance teacher!"

Qian Mo turned around and saw a cool and handsome man in white clothes and blue hair walking towards him.

An important supporting character in the early stage of the original novel, wearing white clothes and holding a blue sword, dancing in the sky with ice and snow.

Just at this moment, Wu Changkong's gaze swept over. Qian Mo raised the corner of his mouth and said in a deep voice: "Perhaps, I should call you Senior Wu."

Upon hearing this, Xu Lizhi and Ye Xinglan looked at Wu Zhangkong curiously. He had actually studied at Shrek Academy.

"You know me?" Wu Zhangkong's eyes flashed with doubt. Considering Qian Mo's age, he probably didn't know about his time studying in the inner courtyard.

"I studied under Master Zhuo for a period of time and heard him talk about you." Qian Mo explained.

"Master Zhuo misses you very much," Qian Mo said softly, looking at the silent Wu Changkong.

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Zhangkong's body trembled slightly, a hint of sadness flashed in his eyes, and his fists hidden in his sleeves were clenched tightly, as if he was enduring something.

"Let's go watch the competition," Qian Mo said goodbye politely and pulled Gu Yuena towards the competition stage. Ye Xinglan and Xu Lizhi followed closely behind.

"Teacher Wu," Tang Wulin said worriedly, keenly aware of Wu Changkong's sadness.

Wu Zhangkong said in a muffled voice, "I'm fine. You should prepare well for the competition and don't bring shame to Class Zero."

"I understand, Teacher Wu!"

Not long after, it was Tang Wulin's turn to fight Ye Xinglan.
