Shen Jingzhe stopped, his gaze full of impatience as he looked at Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao paid her no mind. He smiled and said, "I've got to step out for a bit. I'm counting on you to protect my wife!"
"Hmph, you make it sound as if I don't have to protect her when you're here!"
Damn it. This woman is indirectly calling my cultivation trash. But she's not wrong. Compared to her, my cultivation really is trash.
However, her words solidified Lin Xiao's resolve to reclaim his cultivation as soon as possible. Seeing her displeased look, Lin Xiao gave her a thumbs-up and turned to leave the villa.
「」
Just as Bei Kuang finished preparing the food and drinks, Lin Xiao appeared before him.
"Dragon Lord, the food and drink are simple. I hope you won't mind!" Bei Kuang said with a laugh.
"No need to be so modest, old man!"
Bei Kuang laughed heartily. "Dragon Lord, please have a seat!"
