The two of them agreed to meet at a small restaurant. In fact, this restaurant was not small, and the courtyard was especially big. The owner had divided the courtyard into many small rooms. It was lunchtime, so it was noisy and crowded.
Jin Yunsheng had been to this restaurant many times before. Every time he enjoyed the food, he would feel the fragrance in his mouth and cheeks.
However, this time, he was stunned for a long time in front of the restaurant. The past flashed past his mind, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
In the past, he would come here happily with his girlfriend … But today … he was here for a breakup meal.
In the past, he was happy and full of expectations for the future.
But today, he only had a withered mood.
"You're here, Brother Jin." The waiter was very familiar with Jin Yunsheng.
"Yes, is there a room left?"
"Your girlfriend has already booked it. It's the room in the corner on the right."
"The room in the corner?"
Jin Yunsheng smiled bitterly. In the past, he would choose the room in the middle every time he came. Looking at the noisy crowd outside, he would feel a little angry. Even if he couldn't book the room in the middle, he wouldn't go to the corner. He would rather choose the hall …
But today, he booked the room in the corner. It was indeed a breakup meal. It was so different from the past.
What did this mean?
Did it mean … that he had really walked to the corner?
That he had reached the end?
Jin Yunsheng smiled bitterly. "Is she here?"
"Not yet."
"Okay, then I'll go in and wait for her. Give me a pot of … black tea." Jin Yunsheng originally wanted to order the green tea that he often drank, but when he was about to say it, he felt that the word green was like an arrow that shot into his heart. He subconsciously changed his words.
"Okay!"
Time passed slowly …
The sky gradually darkened, and the lanterns were already lit.
On the star map in front of the Third Prince, seven stars had already extinguished, and eight stars were left. In other words, it was less than half of the star map.
As for the precious medicine known as the Heavenly Star Holy Water, he had already drunk four bottles.
The black-robed man wasn't in a hurry. He could only wait patiently. Occasionally, he would comfort and advise Jun Changkong to act according to his ability and not be too hasty. Only when one of the stars on the star map dimmed and a yellow light flashed would a flash of light appear in his eyes.
It had to be said that this Third Prince, in addition to being very afraid of death, was also very eager for quick success. Everyone had told him that he didn't need to finish it in one go. After pouring his blood into extinguishing one star, he could take a short rest. However, he simply didn't listen. Instead, he was impatient to proceed to the next step. It was probably because of this that he had consumed a lot of Heavenly Star Holy Water just to extinguish seven stars.
The black-robed man didn't expect that the Third Prince Jun Changkong would do this because of the Heavenly Star Holy Water's miraculous effects. The four times he stopped to consume it, it actually increased his Returning Profound Realm cultivation, which had been stagnant for a long time, by ten percent. It was truly an unexpected gain and a great benefit. Therefore, he became more and more convinced of the black-robed man's words. Naturally, he wanted to complete the process of collecting the Imperial Fortune as soon as possible!
What Jun Changkong didn't know was that the black-robed man had gone through a lot of trouble to make such a big move. He opened a hole in the Imperial Family's Qi Meridian and extended it here with a formation. He also used a lot of secret medicine to cooperate with the formation. Using the power of the stars, he poured the Imperial Family's fate into the Third Prince's body. This series of actions took a lot of effort.
His ultimate goal was to use the Imperial Family's bloodline as the carrier and use the blood as the medium to extract the Imperial Family's fate and pour it into the star map.
Now that he had reached the final step, it was the most important point. Slow down … So be it.
It was fine as long as he could succeed!
However, this was all thanks to the Feng and Feng Clan of the Dao League. If it weren't for these two clans coming all the way from Baishan City, Jun Changkong wouldn't have been so pressured!
A person like Jun Changkong would never risk his life if he wasn't in a desperate situation.
In contrast, the secret medicine that he had given up was worth it even though it was a waste!
Under the black-robed man's close watch, a large amount of blood mixed with a faint yellow color that Jun Changkong couldn't see gushed out and poured into the star map …
During this process, the two of them didn't speak for a long time.
Jun Changkong was full of anticipation and impatience, while the black-robed man was very calm and steady.
Compared to Jun Changkong's impatience, the difference between the experienced and the inexperienced was even more obvious …
The experienced and prudent black-robed man naturally had a calmness that was far beyond an ordinary person's.
Success was right in front of him. In just a moment, he would be done!
…
On the other side, Jin Yunsheng's girlfriend finally arrived at the restaurant in the courtyard. She came late, but she came with someone else. It was a young man with two bodyguards.
Needless to say, if Jin Yunsheng's girlfriend's character was disregarded, then her appearance was rather good. Regardless of whether it was her figure or appearance, she was extraordinarily exquisite, and she was filled with a delicate and pitiful aura.
If a woman was given a full score of 100 points, Jin Yunsheng's ex-girlfriend would still score more than 90 points for her appearance even though she was just a mortal. If her appearance and figure didn't change after experiencing wealth and wealth, and if she added some graceful and luxurious aura, her score would be slightly higher.
Facing his girlfriend and that young man, Jin Yunsheng didn't feel as restrained as he had imagined. He actually became carefree.
"Please, please take a seat."
Jin Yunsheng said indifferently, "I'll be the host for today's meal. I wish you a happy life in the future."
When Jin Yunsheng saw that his girlfriend had brought this man over, he immediately gave up. However, he also let go of his feelings for him completely.
Now that he had completely let go, he became magnanimous and magnanimous.
Even though they might not be able to meet again, they should still be friends. Now that he spoke sincerely, he appeared even more graceful.
…
In the cubicle.
Li Chenglong sighed and said, "She's beautiful and graceful, but she's the root of trouble. The ancients say that a poor man shouldn't marry a beautiful woman. With Jin Yunsheng's current situation, he won't be able to hold on to such a girl no matter what. "
Zuo Xiaonian said indifferently, "It all depends on the person. As long as this girl can hold on, Jin Yunsheng can. So, the key to this matter is still this girl."
Zuo Xiaoduo's heart stirred, and he reached out to hold Zuo Xiaonian's hand.
Before Zuo Xiaoduo's awakening, even though the situation was slightly different, it was fundamentally no different from Jin Yunsheng and the others.
At that time, Zuo Xiaonian and he were clearly not from the same world, but Zuo Xiaonian had never wavered.
Sensing Zuo Xiaoduo's intentions, Zuo Xiaonian smiled.
For a moment, she felt warmth in her heart, and she clasped Zuo Xiaoduo's hand with her slender fingers. She felt peaceful, happy, and satisfied.
"Boss, is this kid's luck really that good?" Long Yusheng couldn't help but be curious. No matter how he looked at it, Jin Yunsheng was just an extremely ordinary cultivator. At most, he was at the Connate Realm … Such a cultivation level was simply too ordinary in the Astral Souls.
"Right now, he's in the midst of a bloody disaster. There's no way forward to speak of. However, if he survives this calamity, he'll have good luck. It's hard to say how far he'll go in the future, but his luck will definitely be exuberant … Now that we've intervened, the signs of his good luck are becoming more and more obvious. It's considered a lucky hit that changed the trajectory of his life. Since it's already a lucky hit, we might as well give him a chance."
Zuo Xiaoduo said, "Perhaps we can let him join our company or Qiao 'er."
Gao Qiao 'er's interest was piqued. "From what you've said, this kid is valued by you so much that he's caught your eye?"
"Not necessarily. I just admire his decisiveness and foresight." Zuo Xiaoduo smiled. "In the end, it's still just a casual move. However, Jin Yunsheng has good luck in the future. He'll be of great use. "
Zuo Xiaonian, on the other hand, noticed something else. "You have a company? Why don't I know about it? "
Zuo Xiaoduo and Li Chenglong were speechless.
…
Next door.
They were also talking about an old and clichéd topic.
"… It seems like we're indeed from different worlds. The so-called 'matching families' might be an old rule, but it's not necessarily wrong … It's a good thing to separate as soon as possible," said Jin Yunsheng.
The dishes were served one after another.
Jin Yunsheng said indifferently, "I don't have much money, so I'm destined not to be able to treat everyone to better food. This is the best I can do. Please don't mind. After all, from today onwards, we'll go our separate ways. Perhaps we won't meet again in this lifetime."
"I won't say anything resentful, but I can't say more blessings to all of you. Please, please raise your glass."
Jin Yunsheng raised his neck and downed the wine in one gulp. "I only hope that I, Jin Yunsheng, will only eat such a banquet once in my life."
The girl opposite him had tears in her eyes.
Looking at Jin Yunsheng's cold face, the hatred in her eyes grew stronger. She said indifferently, "That's not necessarily true. In today's society, materialism is rampant. Jin Yunsheng, if you don't change yourself as soon as possible, I'm afraid you'll have to eat such a meal many times."
"That's my fate as well." Jin Yunsheng smiled in a carefree manner and wasn't angry at all. He said indifferently, "You don't have to worry about me after today."
The girl said, "I know you hate me. You hate me for being greedy and ungrateful. After all, you paid for all my expenses and expenses when I went to school and learned martial arts …. Now that I've abandoned you, you'll definitely hate me. That's human nature, so I don't blame you."
Jin Yunsheng said, "You're wrong. I don't hate you. Actually, I should thank you. After all, you're so beautiful, and you even spent some time with me. I should be very satisfied because I should have known from the very beginning that we're from different worlds. Being able to spend some time with you is already an advantage for me. Many people probably have the same thoughts, right?"
The girl paused for a moment and said faintly, "Jin Yunsheng, let me ask you a question. If I wasn't beautiful, would you still support me?"
Jin Yunsheng said indifferently, "What's the point of talking about all of that now? But since you've asked, then I'll answer you honestly. I wouldn't."
The girl heaved a sigh of relief and said with disdain, "So you've only taken a liking to my beauty since the very beginning."
Jin Yunsheng smiled and nodded, yet he laughed bitterly and hollowly in his heart. Everyone loves beauty, yet it's actually a crime? But when I first met you, you were wearing shabby clothes, your face was sallow and emaciated, your hair was disheveled, and you were eating vegetables in the market … I really don't understand, how could I have taken a fancy to your beauty?!
I supported your studies, supported your cultivation, and provided for everything you needed in life. A few years later, you finally expressed your gratitude to me, fell in love with me, and wanted to be with me for the rest of your life …. After that, our relationship changed, and we became lovers. That's what happened after that.
At that time, you were just a little girl who had yet to grow up. What right did you have to talk about beauty?!
He just watched calmly as the girl he'd raised and protected with his life had finally shed her cocoon and become a butterfly, yet she was about to leave just like that and never see him again. Even though he was unwilling to part with her, there were still some indescribable emotions flowing through his heart ….
The girl fell silent for a long time before she finally spoke in a hoarse voice, "I'm very grateful for your care and support all these years …. Please forgive me. I … I'm just unwilling to accept this. I'm unwilling. I'm more beautiful than most women, yet I have to suffer and suffer with you. Yes, I'm vain. But I can't wait to fight and succeed by your side. "
"Yunsheng …. I steamed a basket of your favorite meat buns for you before I came. Even if it's …. I don't have the face to beg you. I just hope … that you can eat a bun in front of me. Perhaps I'll feel that I've repaid you a little …. Just as you said, we might not meet again after today …."
The girl's tears finally fell.
"Alright."
Jin Yunsheng didn't hesitate at all. He took the steaming hot bag and opened it. There were six snow-white buns inside that emitted an alluring fragrance.
Jin Yunsheng smiled bitterly and said, "Speaking of which, I was the one who taught you how to make buns back then."
The girl said, "Yes."
Jin Yunsheng smiled as he picked up a bun and put it into his mouth.
…
"The buns are poisonous." Li Chenglong could tell from the next room. He didn't even have to look to guess.
"You know it's poisonous, but you still ate it." Xiang Bing's eyes widened.
"You won't die if you don't eat it. If you eat it, you'll poison your kind heart to death," Yu Moyan said coldly.
Everyone sighed in unison.
In the next room ….
Jin Yunsheng chewed slowly with a smile on his face. Tears streamed down his face as he said softly, "Perhaps … I'll only eat such delicious buns once in my life."
A trace of hesitation flashed through the girl's eyes before she stood up and said, "I'm going to the washroom. Wait for me to come back. I'll drink with you tonight."
"Yes, I'll drink with you tonight." Jin Yunsheng smiled faintly as he watched her walk out. Then, he calmly looked at the three people opposite him. His smile grew wider.
"What are you smiling about?"
"I'm smiling. The poison has been administered, and I've eaten it. She left to create an opportunity for you. What are you waiting for?"
Jin Yunsheng asked with a smile.
