Immortality Cultivation Era

Chapter 543 The Suspicious Position

The trouble of the He Family in Shanxi has come to an end. It is hard to say whether there will be more problems in the future.

Nevertheless, Gao Ge has confidence in He Youniang.

In his eyes, He Youniang is never a push-over.

Don’t underestimate He Youniang’s explosive power.

Moreover, what He Youniang needs now is to grow. With a little more time, she will quickly grow stronger in terms of cultivation or capability.

This seems to be her natural gift or just an outcome of her being influenced by He Wu for years.

After everything is settled, Gao Ge immediately starts the flying boat and leaves.

He doesn’t stay long in the He Family’s house.

Yue Xincheng, Qingrou and Xia Lu certainly follow him while Zhao Jin stays temporarily. Although Zhao Jin is under the collateral clan of the Zhao Family, he understands the struggle for power very well. He has put forward some suggestions in the He Family’s house, which Gao Ge thinks are rather constructive. Hence, Gao Ge asks Zhao Jin to stay there and help He Youniang reconstruct the framework of the He Family, which is a task for Zhao Jin too.

Zhao Jin was not interested in doing that, but since Gao Ge has given the order, he must take it seriously then.

Moreover, he also knows that He Youniang is important to Gao Ge. If he didn’t care about this student, how could Gao Ge risk his life travelling so far away from Jiangnan City to Shanxi?

Therefore, he is aware that as long as he completes the task assigned by Gao Ge, he can be closer to Gao Ge for He Youniang!

Even if he doesn’t complete the task very well, it won’t matter. He has tried his best and Gao Ge will owe him one.

Having spent the past days with Gao Ge, Zhao Jin has seen through a fact that Gao Ge is open to persuasion, but not to coercion. Hence, even if Gao Ge didn’t want to have any dealings with Zhao Jin at first, but as Zhao Jin keeps badgering with him, they grow even more intimate. After all, he should not hit the one who smiles. Gao Ge cannot kick Zhao Jin out of his own house, can he?

Um...

Therefore, the only one thing Zhao Jin has learnt over the past time is that he must cling to Gao Ge obstinately.

Of course, Zhao Jin can only think about it. If he voices it out to Gao Ge, maybe he will be smashed to pieces with a slap.

Sitting on the flying boat, Xia Lu is a bit worried. Then she asks why the Dragon Killer stopped Gao Ge.

After all, that man didn’t say anything important. Gao Ge directly comes clean.

After hearing Gao Ge talk of the conversation between him and the Dragon Killer, Xia Lu is relieved with a sigh.

“In this case, they won’t make trouble for us within a short time.”

“Yeah!” Yue Xincheng nods his head, “It is a good thing that they want to boost the relationship with us. However, I still feel that we cannot get too close to them. They do want to drag Boss to their side, but if they find that their effort won’t take effect, they may fall out.”

Qingrou and Xia Lu both keep nodding their heads to show consensus on what Yue Xincheng just said.

Yue Xincheng grew up in various fights. He has always been aware that if he wants to survive, he must act as if treading on thin ice. After all, he has been stared at by someone. As such, he is rather gifted but he neglects cultivation. Moreover, he moved out of the Yue Family’s house. He is hailed as a good-for-nothing young man from a wealthy family. Yet, it is not correct to put it this way, because what Yue Xincheng did before convinced Gao Ge that he was a poor and guy, who was not foppish and always scrounged free meals off Gao Ge.

When Gao Ge just learnt that Yue Xincheng was a silver-spoon kid, he was tremblingly furious and felt eager to make Yue Xincheng repay all the meals and snacks.

At that time, Gao Ge felt that his intelligence was seriously insulted...

Due to the past experiences, Yue Xincheng is always defensive in most of the cases. To be more specific, he has no sense of security.

He seems unconcerned in front of Gao Ge and Xia Lu, but it is hard for Yue Xincheng to trust others.

“Actually, Yue Xincheng has made a good point,” Xia Lu looks at Gao Ge and says with a frown, “Gao Ge, you must be discreet when dealing with those people.”

Gao Ge shakes his head and says impatiently, “Forget about it. Upon meeting them, I just try my best to hide away in case that I may get into trouble. Of course I will not deal with them.”

“It’s good.” Xia Lu nods her head and feels relieved.

Gao Ge is telling the truth.

If he confronts the Dragon Killers with toughness, he will be courting death then. As such, Gao Ge cannot get too close to them lest that he is put in the suspicious position.

For the Dragon Court, the Dragon Killers are archenemies. The reverse is also true. Although Gao Ge has quitted the Dragon Court, if he contacts the Dragon Killers frequently, he can hardly defend for himself then. Maybe Fire Dragon and Water Dragon trust Gao Ge, but the Dragon Court doesn’t belong to one or two persons. If too many people suspect Gao Ge, he cannot clear his name.

Even if they misunderstand Gao Ge, when the misunderstanding is addressed, it is more likely that they won’t blame themselves for not finding the truth. Instead, they will believe that Gao Ge doesn’t maintain his personal integrity and he himself should take the blame. Although Gao Ge doesn’t know much about the worldly wisdom or bother to study it, in his last life and this life, he has experienced too much fickleness of human nature. It is literally a fancy to wish the others to believe him forever, even if it is a gentleman’s code not to be angry about not being understood by people. Even a saint may not gain understanding from others, let alone Gao Ge, who has been defamed for so many times.

“I only hope that those people don’t come to me again,” Standing on the flying boat, Gao Ge says with a sigh.

“Boss, do you think those people can really find Meng Jing?” Yue Xincheng sighs.

“I don’t know, but I’m not counting on them. They can look for her as they wish, but the people of the Dragon Court always act in secret. By now, even if I quit the Dragon Court, they still won’t want to tell me. Evidently, the thing must be so huge that they don’t dare to disclose it or leave any obvious traces,” Gao Ge says with a bitter smile.

Upon thinking that it is not easy to find Meng Jing, Gao Ge feels really depressed.
