As he left the hospital, Jiang Ziya looked at his injured arm. The bandages keeping his arm in place had already been removed. Actually, it barely hurt anymore. It only hurt a bit when he moved it too much.

He got in a taxi, originally wanting to go straight home. However, he thought it over and was still a bit worried about what was going on with his brother-in-law’s job. If he went on an unannounced inspection right now, would he be able to come across some of the truth?

He had already begun dithering over it in the hospital room, and when the taxi driver asked him for his destination, Jiang Ziya hadn’t even made a decision, yet he blurted the name of the street where his brother-in-law’s company was located.

“Got it.”

The taxi driver responded and began driving. Jiang Ziya could only smile wryly to himself. He really did want to go take a look after all. Currently, he also had his left eye he could use. I should at least be of some use, right?

As the thought occurred, Jiang Ziya grew spirited. This left eye had been a thorn in his side since he was young. Now that it was finally useful, he couldn’t help feeling victorious after all his troubles.

After that, Chen Yanqing stopped coming by. But I didn’t mind this at all. I had already gotten inside, so I had no further use for that guy. Who cares about him? Hehe, abandoning people after using them, I’ve finally corrupted my Mother Teresa complex!

While I sat at the entrance of the tent, I gazed up at the guard tower, appearing as lost as the nearby crowds. But in reality, I was scrutinizing the defense around the base of the tower. The guards stationed there seemed a bit like overkill. Although at first glance it looked like they only had one or two squadrons extra compared to other places, I had spotted hidden alcoves in quite a number of places.

I asked with worry, “Dàgē, there’s such heavy security around that tower. Are you really sure you’d have been able to leave a clue there?”

Jiang Xiaotian frowned, thought for a little, then replied, “Xiao Sha can. He is very good at subterfuge, so he should be able to avoid notice. But for your safety’s sake, he really should have picked somewhere else. Hm, it’s hard to say.”

“Then that’s fine.” I said with a nod, “Dàgē knows my capabilities. He’ll definitely leave a message there.”

Jiang Xiaotian frowned as he nodded and remarked, “But the security here is too strong. Something feels off.”

“Gē, there’s a pretty girl outside looking for you!”

A pretty girl? Could it be Melody… no, Luo Lun would recognize Melody.

“Ji Luo Chu, you went with Ah Ye to the nightclub, right? You’d better tell me exactly what happened that day, not a single word less, unless you want to be fed to the fishes!”

Turns out it’s Ah Ye’s mistress. Fed to the fishes… you’re not going to open your mouth and eat me, right? Isn’t a merperson still a fish?

“Poseidynne-jiě, don’t be like this!” Briar was grasping at Poseidynne’s hand with all her might to the side.

“TELL. ME. Word. For. Word!”

Word for word? Wouldn’t it be enough to mention only the things relevant to Ah Ye? Ah Ye, take your mistress back to your family’s fish tank! I’m busy with work, and I need to be a hero. I don’t have time to raise fish!

Bang!

Luo Lun screamed, “Gē! All of the faucets and pipes in our house have exploded!”

…That day, Ah Ye suddenly wanted to go to a nightclub, so we went to a nightclub called Seaside… Oh, right! That shop’s owner seemed to know you.

Poseidynne furiously shouted, “You’re lying! How could Ah Ye want to go to a nightclub?”

He just wanted to go that day! He didn’t do much there. He just danced with Melody, then sang “Vampire.”

“You’re lying! What about that female drummer?”

What female drummer…

“Gē! The bathtub exploded too!”

My god, Ah Ye, take your family’s fish back, now!

GOD V1C7: The Sword of Sacred White

GOD—Divine Beginning of the End—Volume 1: The First Pet is a Swordsman

Original novel in Chinese by: 御 我 (Yu Wo)

Chapter 7: The Sword of Sacred White—translated by lucathia (proofread by Arcedemius & EvlNabiki)

Time flew. Three months passed by in the blink of an eye. Although Shooting Star felt it would be safer to wait another month or two, even if he tried to stall to the best of his ability, Mannen had already lost all patience. If they didn’t hurry and return his son, he would likely burn down the entire forest.

Shooting Star was still a little worried, but all he could do now was silently eat his food. After this, it would all be up to Bai Saya. He turned his head to look at the guy next to him.

Said guy was covered in filth. Although his hair was pulled up into a ponytail, it stuck out here and there. Whether it was his face, his hands, or his feet, all was covered with a thick layer of grime, practically obscuring the color of his skin. As for the clothes he wore, using them as rags to wipe the floor might even dirty the floor!

The strangest thing was, heavy cloth bags hung from his hands, his feet, and even his back. He was clearly eating, yet he hadn’t removed those cloth bags. He really looked out of place. Even a beggar wouldn’t be as bedraggled as he was.

“Hurry and eat! You’re gonna have to fight Mannen soon.” Shooting Star, who burped after eating his fill, patted that guy’s back.

“Okay.”

This voice was rather familiar. Who else could it be but Bai Saya?

“Nervous?” Shooting Star teased.

“No…” Although he reflexively answered that way, Bai Saya paused momentarily. He took in a deep breath and instead said, “Yes, very nervous.”
