Starting from Douluo Continent, I've become a god through daily check-ins.

Chapter 610 Letting Go

Seeing the gaze directed at him, Jing Chen's eyes narrowed slightly beneath his black robe. Judging solely from his expression, one could sense that Jing Chen remained completely calm. Beneath his black robe, without making any further movement, Jing Chen gently exhaled.

Thinking about it, Jing Chen didn't really need to get angry with a little girl. He had traveled through so many worlds and experienced so much; his youthful impetuosity was long gone. To put it more aptly, he had a soul that had lived for hundreds of years inside the body of a teenager.

Even though he had harbored resentment towards Nalan Yanran for a while, whether due to a system-issued task or a momentary outburst of anger, the inexplicable anger and hatred in Jing Chen's heart seemed to vanish instantly upon their reunion. He was no longer young and impetuous, and besides, he wasn't the one who had been jilted; so, to say he felt humiliated wasn't really so.

Having figured everything out, Jing Chen finally came to her senses and said softly to Hai Bodong beside her, "Let's go."

Jing Chen's current understanding of everything doesn't mean he'll hold back in the upcoming battle. On the contrary, after starting all over again, he sees Nalan Yanran as a formidable opponent, a decent whetstone to test his recent path of rebuilding and arduous training.

With a slight frown, Hai Bodong looked at Jing Chen beside him, who was sometimes angry and sometimes calm. His gaze swept around and finally settled on the woman in the moon robe at the door. It seemed that all the confusion had been vaguely understood in that moment.

Shaking his head helplessly, Hai Bodong quickly followed after Jing Chen, walking towards the gate one after the other.

Watching the two mysterious figures, completely shrouded in black robes, slowly emerge from the gate, Nalan Yanran blinked her long, slender eyebrows with interest, her gaze lingering on Jing Chen for a moment. For some reason, she felt a strange familiarity with this mysterious figure in black robes. This familiarity wasn't the kind between men and women, but rather a subtle, almost primal feeling of being destined rivals.

She gently rubbed her forehead, banishing the somewhat absurd thought from her mind. Turning her head to look at Ling Lin beside her, she chuckled, "So, these two are the ones you offended yesterday?"

Ling Lin nodded somewhat awkwardly, glancing furtively at the backs of the two men in black robes. She knew perfectly well that in the eyes of such powerful figures, her status was utterly ordinary. Perhaps, to these two, she was no different from any other common person? Even if they killed her in a fit of rage, it probably wouldn't cause them any trouble.

Seeing Ling Lin nod, Nalan Yanran turned her gaze back and asked Ge Ye in a low voice, "Uncle Ge, can you see through the identities of these two?"

"Miss, you overestimate this old man's abilities." Hearing this, Ge Ye shook his head with a wry smile. His cloudy eyes, like those of an eagle, stared at the two people slowly approaching, and he sighed softly, "I can't see through either of these two. It's obvious that their strength is above mine."

Suddenly, Jing Chen paused, glancing at the young man who had just arrived and begun chatting with Nalan Yanran. Through their conversation, they had come to know each other; the young man before them was named Mo Li. Clearly, he was a member of the Mo family. As for Mo Li's hidden thoughts, Jing Chen saw right through him. These so-called young talents, unsurprisingly, were all cut from the same cloth.

"Hehe, gentlemen, I am Mo Li of the Mo family. I heard that my younger sister accidentally offended you two yesterday. My father sent me here today to apologize." Mo Li's smile remained unchanged, appearing quite sincere. "Today happens to be a joyous occasion for the Mo family. If you two don't mind, would you do me the honor of coming for a chat?"

Beneath the black robe, Jing Chen narrowed his eyes, sizing up the young man named Mo Li. It must be said, Mo Li was quite adept at interpersonal relationships. His speech was impeccable, easily winning over others. It was just a pity that Jing Chen already harbored considerable dislike for the so-called Mo family before coming here.

Thinking of this, a hint of mockery appeared in Jing Chen's eyes. How would he feel if he knew that the person he called "Master" would turn the Mo family upside down at the upcoming birthday banquet?

A slight smile played on Jing Chen's lips as he raised his head slightly and said calmly, "No need for invitations. We've come here precisely to make our way to the Mo family. I'm sure Young Master Mo will be able to see us there soon."

After saying that, Jing Chen led Hai Bodong past Mo Li, and the two slowly walked out of the gate and disappeared into the bustling street.

Standing at the gate, Nalan Yanran felt slightly flustered. Why did she feel that the voice of the man in black robes was somewhat familiar? It was as if she had heard it somewhere before.

Somewhere in the city, Xiao Wu, with Shen Yu by her side, looked down at the two men in black robes who had just emerged, shaking her head helplessly. Shen Yu, standing beside her, also sighed softly, saying, "What a coincidence that they had to run into each other."

Xiao Wu smiled and said, "That's not bad at all. At least, my brother already knows what's going on. I'm sure it won't be long before the Hundred Flowers Palace will be able to openly and legitimately contribute to my brother's cause."

Hearing Xiao Wu's words, Shen Yu fell silent. "Is that so? I hope that day will come."

Xiao Wu gently placed her hands on her lower abdomen and said with a wry smile, "It's really not easy for me to conceive a child, brother."

"If only it were that easy. Maybe when we came out of Douluo Continent, there wouldn't be only a few people left in the Hundred Flowers Palace," Shen Yu said with a hint of helplessness.

"Well, that's true." Xiaowu smiled helplessly, then said softly, "I don't know if it's because I'm pregnant with your child, but when I look at you now, I feel like you're almost completely bound, and there's also a huge vortex surrounding you, with no way of seeing what's at the bottom."
