Chapter 277.3: I Do Not Mean Anything To You At All! Angry!

Zhuge Xiong turned out to be a very good painter where even the pair of eyes that were most striking portrayed the emotions fully, looking extremely lifelike.

And on that painting, who else could it be other than Qing Yu herself?

It was as if Zhuge Xiong had been poisoned, unable to stop thinking of her the entire time since he came back. It was not until he had completed portraying her in a portrait that he felt a little comforted.

Upon seeing the man put the painting back down, Zhuge Xiong was then able to breathe a sigh of relief. He stretched his hand out and was just about to keep the painting away when a large hand with well defined bones suddenly pressed down on his. “This portrait you painted. Who is it?”

Zhuge Xiong was taken aback for a moment, thinking that the man was interested in the young lady as well. His voice immediately became wary as he said: “Why would you suddenly ask me about something like this?”

“I had an old friend, who looks very much like the woman in the painting. I was just trying to ascertain if they are the same person.” The man said.

Hearing those words, Zhuge Xiong then relaxed his guard and opened his mouth to explain: “Then you have definitely mistaken her for someone else. This little beauty here is Qing Luo Yan’s personal attendant and her real person is even more beautiful than this painting, but her temperament isn’t really great I must say. It seems like Qing Luo Yan is very indulgent with her and must have spoilt her rotten, but that kind of a personality can be said to be rather flavourful in another way.”

The man’s interest seemed piqued as he arched up an eyebrow. “What is her name?”

“She’s called Yu Qing, a rather nice sounding name.” Zhuge Xiong chuckled and said.

“Yu Qing…..” The corners of the man’s lips curved up as he repeated that name. “I must say it’s quite a coincidence!”

He had been wondering all this time how that person had suddenly disappeared without a trace anywhere!

So she had been hiding here all along.

Zhuge Xiong was not paying attention to what the man was saying but was carefully awaiting the ink on the portrait to dry completely. He then rolled it up gingerly before he placed it high up onto the shelf, and then turned to say to the man: “What made you come all the way here to look for me?”

“It’s nothing, but just wanted to tell you that I will be going with you on the trip to the Mind Free Peak.” The man said with a smile.

Zhuge Xiong raised an eyebrow. “Didn’t you say that you were not going and would just be getting that subordinate of yours to go in your stead. Why have you suddenly changed your mind?”

The smile at the ends of the man’s lips deepened slightly. “Because I discovered something very interesting, so I think the situation needs me to personally show my face there.”

Zhuge Xiong shoulders shrugged indifferently. “Whatever pleases you. Anyway, we’ve agreed that when we get our hands on the prize, we’ll split it fifty fifty. If you go back on your word, our cooperation will come to an end and you will be then be placed on the Hunters Guild’s most wanted list.”
