Urban All-Round Master-Chapter 1677 - 1711: Nangong Bing Breaks Through to Sub-Saint Fifth Layer Heaven
"Alright, alright, I’m still here by your side, aren’t I? Don’t cry and turn into a little panda, it’s not gonna look good later on," Nangong Shui said, teasing with a pampering smile.
"Ugh, it’s annoying! It’s just the two of us here, there’s no one else, so even if I cry and ruin my face, nobody will see it," Nangong Bing said, showing a rare glimpse of a little lady.
"Hehe, that’s not necessarily true. That kid is right outside, and if he comes in and sees you like this, I can’t guarantee he won’t make fun of you."
"What! He’s—he’s outside? Then—then why hasn’t he come in yet?" Nangong Bing exclaimed. Luckily, Huahua and Tangtang were attending promotional activities for Huayu Group today. Otherwise, her father’s appearance would certainly draw their curiosity.
"It’s just because he’s afraid of seeing you with a face like a crying panda, otherwise he would’ve come in long ago," Nangong Shui lightly tweaked her nose.
Making Nangong Bing roll her eyes repeatedly.
"Father, can you tell me what happened exactly? Haven’t you already..." Nangong Bing still thought she was dreaming, not fully understanding.
"Ah, it’s a long story. Have you ever heard of the legend of the Blazing Angel?" Nangong Shui heaved a sigh.
Nangong Bing nodded; she had heard Lin Zifeng mention it, knowing a bit.
"I am one of them, the Blood Angel."
"The disappearance back then, actually..."
To prevent his beloved daughter from being confused, Nangong Shui recounted all the secrets from the day of his disappearance.
She listened, sometimes surprised, sometimes horrified, especially when hearing about the dangerous process of escaping from the Dark Prison, making her secretly break into a cold sweat...
......
Soon, Lin Zifeng brought Jia Zhengjing and the old man inside from outside the villa. Pushing the door open, they saw the father and daughter on the sofa sharing their family feelings. Talk about awkward!
"So... you guys keep chatting like we’re not even here," Nangong Bing turned her head and first saw the sleazy face of Jia Zhenjing, almost screaming out loud.
Then she saw another old man with tousled white long hair; though his face was very weathered, his body was quite muscular. The old man’s body used to be weak, but recently it had grown a lot of muscles...
"It’s you! Jia Zhengjing!"
Nangong Bing exclaimed with surprised eyes. Jia Zhenjing had been a security guard at Huayu Group for over a decade. She had a deep impression of him but didn’t expect him to be the Dark Angel of the Blazing Angels!
"Hehe, should I call you President or niece then?" Jia Zhenjing casually plopped onto the table, swinging his legs, grabbing a red apple, and took a big bite.
The old man showed no courtesy either, walking to the fridge, opening it, his eyes went round.
"Oh! Osiba~ I haven’t seen a fridge for so many years, damn! The modern fridge can do this now!"
Not to mention the old man, he lived a life deprived of sunlight in the Dark Prison, becoming dumbfounded when he escaped.
It’s like he’s years behind the world now...
Seeing the fridge and the food inside, you can’t describe the expression on this old guy now. He opened his arms and embraced all the food in the fridge into his chest, laughing heartily while humming: "Haha, so much food, it’s all mine. It’s all mine now."
Then, going even more hilarious, this old guy hugged the food and drank into a corner to enjoy it alone...
"I..."
Nangong Bing felt helpless. The security guard of over ten years turned out to be the Dark Angel from the Blazing Angels, and that old man was a powerful angel too, yet now in such a pitiful state. What unspoken secrets have these Blazing Angels experienced?
"Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. Your father is back now; I believe you’re very happy, aren’t you?" Jia Zhenjing smiled, quickly realizing his apple had been eaten, glanced at the old man in the corner, and reluctantly went to look for food...
"Oh my~"
Nangong Bing felt her head was overwhelmed now.
"Kid, come here," Nangong Shui beckoned to Lin Zifeng.
"Listen, I entrust my daughter to you now. If you dare do anything to let her down, don’t think I’ll let you off. Even the Dark Prison and the old man can’t protect you!"
"Humph?!"
In the corner, the old man twitched his ear, grunting in displeasure: "Hey, hey, hey, Nangong Shui, don’t always involve me, alright. With you threatening my disciple like that, believe it or not, I’ll drag you out and fight three hundred rounds!"
"..."
Nangong Shui was speechless, glaring at him in frustration.
"Father, I—I have something to tell you." Seeing so many strong individuals, Nangong Bing certainly wasn’t naive; she closed her pretty eyes, communicating with the Star Ring, drawing it from her chest, and delivered it to Nangong Shui.
"Father, do you know the origin of this?"
Questioning.
"Hmm?!"
"What is this?"
Nangong Shui looked carefully, his eyes immediately lit up with fascination. He could sense the item’s extraordinary nature.
"What do we have here! Let me take a look!"
The old man noticed, seemingly feeling the Star Ring in Nangong Bing’s hand wasn’t ordinary, instantly abandoning his beloved snacks to look at the Star Ring.
"Osiba! It indeed is a treasure!" The old man recognized its unusual quality.
"Where did you get this thing?"
Jia Zhenjing pouted, finding it remarkable too.
"I cut out an Emerald from a gambling stone field in Macau, then had it crafted into a ring, naming it the Star Ring," Lin Zifeng said.
"Emerald? That’s the finest of jade! I recall an Emerald from Australia was worth over ten billion years ago! The United States nearly launched military power to snatch it, could this be the same piece?"
"Were there any anomalies with it?" the old man asked. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
"Yes! It altered my physique, and often it would levitate at night, glowing green, with two ancient steles appearing within the green glow. The steles were engraved with mysterious characters..." Nangong Bing shared all the anomalies with them.
Especially mentioning when Lin Zifeng was in peril, when Nangong Bing erupted, transforming into blood-red Nangong Bing, that combat power was almost unimaginable!
"Given her condition then, could you guess the level of her cultivation?"
After hearing, Jia Zhenjing frowned, feeling the Star Ring was more frightening than the Magic Bracelet.
"Compared to the past, it might be hard to estimate, but after meeting the Taihuang Demon, I guess it must be at least at Sub-Saint Fifth Layer Heaven!"
Lin Zifeng recalled.
His strength wasn’t high at the time, so it was hard to judge Nangong Bing’s combat power; but now reflecting on it, it definitely rivals the Taihuang Demon.
"Sub-Saint Fifth Layer Heaven! That’s equivalent to the Taihuang Demon’s cultivation!"
The old man was astonished, glaring wide, and looking at the surprised Nangong Bing, a premonition surged in his heart. If Nangong Shui’s precious woman truly grows, would she be even more terrifying than the Taihuang Demon?
"Osiba, what’s become of the world? How come all the women I encounter are so terrifying!"
The old man lamented repeatedly; the Iga Family’s female Family Head was immensely strong. The Taishang Sect’s Holy Daughter Taihuang Demon wasn’t simple either, and now encountering another seemingly weak woman, but with Sub-Saint Fifth Layer Heaven combat power!
"You mean to say, if my daughter gets mad, she possesses Sub-Saint Fifth Layer Heaven combat power too?"
Nangong Shui wasn’t sure whether to feel happy or uneasy. Instead, it left him feeling conflicted.
