Chapter 139: Best Teammate, Yu Xiaogang?
Outdoor barbecues have their own unique charm.
Kong found a flat spot without any weeds, feeling assured as he set up the specially-made barbecue grill and began his grilling adventure.
Starting a fire in the wilderness? That's a surefire way to land yourself in prison!
Kong was well aware of this.
Raiden Shogun remained silent, quietly eating her food. She was already planning to share her thoughts on the taste of the barbecue with Ei once she returned to the Pure Land.
Ei: "There's really no need for that!"
"Cucumbers are great for beauty and taste sweet. Wife, want to give it a try?"
Cucumbers, in this case, refer to the vegetable more commonly known as "huanggua."
"Hm."
After hearing this, Raiden Shogun nodded and accepted the skewer, beginning to taste it.
"Kong, what does 'wife' mean?"
Shui Yue'er asked in confusion. She kept hearing Kong call this purple-haired woman "wife" and didn't quite understand it.
She understood "Shogun," assuming it must be her name. After all, she didn't really look like a military general.
But the term "wife" was something she truly didn't get!
"Huh?"
Kong was startled for a moment but quickly recovered, explaining truthfully, "Wife means your spouse, as in your bride."
"???"
Shui Yue'er froze on the spot, almost dropping her skewer to the ground.
Goodness! Kong is already married?
Although in the Douluo Continent, polygamy wasn't uncommon—strong individuals could marry multiple people as long as they could provide for them—most still adhered to monogamy.
Kong is even younger than me, and he already has a wife!
Why does this skewer suddenly taste less flavorful?
"Haha…"
Shui Yue'er awkwardly laughed and said, "I see, I understand now."
The falling flower has feelings, but the flowing water is heartless.
Judging by the relationship between Kong and Raiden Shogun, it was clear they were very close. Shui Yue'er could barely hold it together. She had only just begun to feel a spark in her heart, only to lose so thoroughly!
"No way, Yue'er, you can't give up this easily! If it comes to it, just settle for being the second wife!"
Shui Yue'er thought to herself.
At that moment, Kong's brows furrowed, and his hand, which was fiddling with the skewer, paused slightly because he sensed two familiar presences nearby.
Hmm, familiar presences?
That's nothing to worry about.
Soon, Liu Erlong and Flender appeared within view.
Liu Erlong was initially stunned, never expecting that the people "poisoning" the wilderness would turn out to be her half-nephew!
Beside him were two girls... wait, no, one woman and one girl.
Judging by Raiden Shogun's appearance, there was no way she could be considered a girl.
"Isn't that Shui Ningshuang's daughter?"
Both being Soul Saints, women, and sharing an emo disposition, Shui Ningshuang and Liu Erlong had become best friends, despite their contrasting icy and fiery temperaments.
Shui Ningshuang's situation was more complicated—her husband and sister had died in the far northern lands under tragic circumstances.
The entire Shui family relied on her alone, so it was quite normal for her to be emo.
Of course, Shui Ningshuang's outlook was better than Liu Erlong's. After all, Shui Yue'er and Shui Bing'er both had excellent talent, and in the future, they could carry the Shui family's banner.
Liu Erlong, on the other hand, was emo because the man she loved had abandoned her!
"How did she end up with Kong?"
Liu Erlong was filled with confusion as she approached Kong and the others.
Flender hesitated slightly upon seeing Kong, but since Liu Erlong was already walking over, he gritted his teeth and followed her.
This young master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was known to be ruthless (having killed someone over a spirit bone). He wasn't someone easy to deal with.
Flender even suspected that if he hadn't mentioned Liu Erlong's name back then, he might have been killed on the spot.
"Kong, why are you grilling here?"
Liu Erlong sat down next to Kong after approaching him and asked.
"Aunt Erlong, do I need to report my whereabouts to you?"
Kong's good mood faded by half with Liu Erlong's arrival. This person was trouble!
He regretted ever deciding to reveal the truth to Liu Erlong back then.
Liu Erlong's smile froze on her face, and she nodded bitterly. Indeed, Kong didn't need to report his whereabouts to her.
Flender opened his mouth, as if wanting to say something, but hesitated. The words that were about to leave his mouth were swallowed back down.
He still couldn't forget the looks the two Contra-level elders had given him.
Flender was confused. What was the situation between Yu Tiankong and Liu Erlong? Why was there so much tension in the air?
Shui Yue'er, on the other hand, looked completely bewildered. What was going on? Were these people acquaintances?
She didn't recognize Liu Erlong, but Liu Erlong knew her.
"Kong, thank you for helping me see Yu Xiaogang's true colors."
After a long pause, Liu Erlong finally spoke.
Hearing this, Flender was shocked, his eyes widening. He had been wondering why Liu Erlong seemed like a different person lately. Was it because of Kong?
If that's the case, then Kong was his benefactor!
Now that Liu Erlong knew the truth about Yu Xiaogang, didn't that mean Flender's chance had finally come?
Kong's hand, which had been shaking a seasoning bottle, suddenly stopped. His expression changed dramatically as waves of shock surged in his heart!
This doesn't make sense!
How could someone like Liu Erlong come to realize Yu Xiaogang's true nature?
Shouldn't she be deceiving herself as usual?
Something was definitely off here!
Which part went wrong?
Unable to hold back, Kong asked, "Based on what I know of you, once you set your mind on someone, not even eight Titan Giant Apes could pull you away. How could you suddenly realize Yu Xiaogang's true colors? This isn't like you at all, Aunt Erlong!"
Liu Erlong's eyelid twitched. Was Kong praising her, or insulting her?
"Logically speaking, as long as Yu Xiaogang made up a story, even if the truth and evidence were laid out in front of you, you'd still convince yourself that whatever Yu Xiaogang said was real. So this really surprises me," Kong said in confusion.
"Is it possible," Flender pushed up his glasses and said in a low tone, "that when Sister Erlong confronted him, Yu Xiaogang subconsciously admitted the truth?"
Liu Erlong and Kong: "..."
Kong couldn't help but gasp. The strongest assist came from none other than Yu Xiaogang himself?
Goodness! He had been wondering why Liu Erlong had come to her senses. It turns out Yu Xiaogang confessed himself, cutting off Liu Erlong's last lifeline!
In his heart, Kong gave Yu Xiaogang a thumbs-up. A teammate like that—truly terrifying.
After a long silence, Liu Erlong spoke in a somewhat resentful tone, "My dear nephew, won't you introduce these two girls to me?"
She knew Shui Yue'er, but the girl had never met her before.
"This is Raiden Shogun, my wife."
Kong put his arm around Raiden Shogun as he introduced her. Then, pointing to Shui Yue'er, he continued, "This is Shui Yue'er, a top student from the Tianshui Academy."
Shui Yue'er's face darkened. That introduction was a bit too perfunctory, wasn't it?
Though she didn't quite understand what had happened earlier, or who this Yu Xiaogang was…
