301: How could I, the great Lord of Heaven, be so embarrassed?

The two argued endlessly, but in the end, they did not come to blows.

After all, neither of them was willing to give an inch, and at this time, in this place, they could not afford to fight.

Just as the two were complaining to each other, a clear, pleasant, and moving sound suddenly came.

Weng Qinghua looked suspiciously at the person who was rushing towards his girlfriend, then walked with Wang Cao towards where his girlfriend was.

Looking from afar, his girlfriend's best friend was wearing a sexy and charming stepmother dress, with a graceful figure and beautiful hair falling down her back like a waterfall.

Wang Cao and Weng Qinghua walked side by side, chatting all the way.

"Who is that girl?"

"I'm not too sure either."

"That back view is absolutely stunning; I really don't know if she already has a boyfriend."

"Holy cow, you're not serious, are you?"

"Hmph, you already have a girlfriend, what's wrong with this Heavenly Venerate finding a girlfriend!"

"Alright, since you're really interested in her, then I'll—"

"Then I'll ask her to help you set something up."

"Hehe..."

.........

Upon seeing her best friend, his girlfriend happily went up to her, and the two began to chat cheerfully.

Her best friend curiously looked around, then asked with a suspicious expression, "Didn't you say you had an appointment with Weng Qinghua? Where is he?"

His girlfriend pointed to Weng Qinghua and his group, who were walking towards them, and said with a smile, "Look, they're coming."

Her best friend squinted her eyes, trying hard to see clearly in front, but it was still in vain, and she couldn't help but mumble, "Where? Why can't I see anything?"

Only then did his girlfriend realize, slapping her forehead, that she had almost forgotten her best friend's myopia; she couldn't distinguish people and objects beyond fifty meters.

She quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, you'll see them when they get closer."

After speaking, the two women continued to chatter, occasionally smiling at each other over some interesting topic, with a faint blush on their cheeks.

Just then, Weng Qinghua and Wang Cao finally reached a spot not far from the two.

Weng Qinghua observed his girlfriend's best friend's back from afar, secretly praising, "Just by looking at that back, I know she must be a great beauty."

Wang Cao, beside him, was also attracted by the graceful figure in front of him, a hint of admiration in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily curved upwards, thinking that this woman truly embodied both purity and charm.

At this moment, Weng Qinghua joyfully called out loudly, "Hey, what are you two talking about? So happy!"

His girlfriend and her best friend turned around, and in that instant, the originally brilliant smiles on Weng Qinghua's and Wang Cao's faces instantly froze.

They stared with wide eyes, incredulously looking at the woman in front of them—his girlfriend's best friend actually had thick eyebrows like Crayon Shin-chan, bright red lips like flames, and white powder that occasionally flaked off with her movements...

His girlfriend smiled and said, "It's nothing, just private girl talk, it's better if you boys don't ask too much!"

Upon hearing this, Weng Qinghua and Wang Cao could only nod mechanically, indicating that they fully understood and respected the privacy of their girls' conversations.

However, in reality, both of them had long lost any interest or desire to continue asking questions.

His girlfriend's best friend stared at Wang Cao and the others with curiosity for a while, then suddenly exclaimed, "Oh my, you must be Weng Qinghua, right! Then who is this?"

At this moment, Wang Cao was secretly groaning in his heart, wishing he could immediately take off the blindfold Weng Qinghua had placed over his eyes, so at least one eye wouldn't have to face such a terrifying sight.

He bit the bullet and gave an awkward, dry laugh, "Uh... hehehe, this Heavenly Venerate is Wang Cao."

As soon as he finished speaking, his girlfriend's best friend's eyes lit up, and she excitedly shouted, "Wow, so you're Wang Cao! Today I'm finally lucky enough to meet you!"

It turned out that during a previous spiritual energy tide, thousands of ferocious Yao Beasts had frantically poured into Menjiang City, bringing great disaster and panic to the City.

Wang Cao and Weng Qinghua, with their excellent tacit agreement and seamless cooperation, had single-handedly annihilated all the Yao Beasts, successfully protecting the people behind them from harm.

When this thrilling scene occurred, his girlfriend's best friend was deeply shocked and silently remembered the brave and fearless Wang Cao.

When he saw his girlfriend's best friend showing increasing interest in Wang Cao, even walking up to him, Wang Cao felt extremely awkward and confused.

Just as he didn't know how to handle the situation, his girlfriend's best friend broke the silence first:

"Wang Cao, those Yao Beasts were too terrifying, but you were able to defeat them, that's amazing!"

"Wang Cao, what's your zodiac sign?"

"Wang Cao, let me tell you, I'm an earth sign, and I know a lot about zodiac signs! Hurry and tell me..."

Facing a barrage of questions, Wang Cao was overwhelmed, and finally, unable to bear it, he blurted out, "Sorry, this Heavenly Venerate has detected an anomaly in the celestial phenomena and must leave first."

With that, Wang Cao turned and hurried away, leaving his girlfriend's best friend with a bewildered expression.

Weng Qinghua, who had come to his senses, quickly said, "I'm really worried about him going alone; today the sun is bright and the wind is gentle, so I won't disturb your sisterly chat."

Before he finished speaking, Weng Qinghua and Wang Cao dashed away like arrows from a bow, at a shocking speed, so fast that his girlfriend and her best friend didn't even have time to react, only watching helplessly as their figures quickly disappeared from sight.

His girlfriend's best friend looked worriedly at the already vanished Wang Cao, asking anxiously, "They wouldn't have run into any danger, would they?"

His girlfriend gently shook her head and comforted her, "Don't worry, even so many fierce and brutal Yao Beasts were helpless against them before; there's no need to worry too much."

..........

Wang Cao ran wildly to a roadside drink shop, stopping breathlessly, bought a cold drink, and chugged it down, trying to calm his inner tension.

After a short rest, he suddenly heard Weng Qinghua calling his name from behind: "Wang Cao, wait for me!"

Upon hearing the sound, Wang Cao instinctively bought another cold drink and turned to hand it to the hurrying Weng Qinghua.

The two looked at each other silently, seemingly both processing the 'heart-stopping' scene they had just experienced.

After a moment, Wang Cao finally couldn't suppress his inner agitation and broke the silence, saying, "To think that I, a dignified Heavenly Venerate, who has traversed the world and vanquished countless Yao Beasts and demons, have ever retreated in such a disheveled manner! It's truly regrettable!"

Weng Qinghua, seeing this, gently patted Wang Cao's shoulder in comfort and, feigning pity, said, "Brother, seeing you like this, I can't help but feel sorry for you for three seconds..."

Upon hearing this, Wang Cao was instantly surprised, turned to stare at Weng Qinghua, and asked with a suspicious look, "Huh? Why did you run here too? Shouldn't you be with your beautiful girlfriend?"

Weng Qinghua first paused slightly, then gave an awkward smile, scratched his head, and explained, "Hehe, today she has someone else to accompany her, why would I go and meddle? So I just came to find you."

After speaking, he picked up the drink in front of him and took a sip.

And so, the two sat silently side by side, their gazes fixed on the high and deep sky, as if wanting to find some solace from that vast and boundless expanse...
