Chapter 1617: Rubik's Cube Beauty (79)

Yi Yingxue ran to Zhai Chenming's side and hugged him excitedly. “Ah Ming, I'm cured. Let's leave this place.”

Zhai Chenming turned to the woman at the counter and asked, “We're outsiders. How can we leave?”

The clerk raised her head and glanced at him before pointing outside. “There are many lottery boxes over there. Lucky people may draw the key they need. With that key, you can open the gates of the Rubik's Cube World and leave.”

“Then let's stay here and have some fun for a few days before drawing for the key,” Yi Yingxue suggested. Naturally, she had no idea that the probability of obtaining a key was so low that it was practically zero, which was why she spoke so casually.

Letting go of Zhai Chenming, she walked over to Tang Guo.

“Tang Guo, let me treat you to a meal. There should be plenty of delicious food here. I want to thank you for taking care of us all this way.”

She didn't mind in the least that Tang Guo wasn't an ordinary person.

All she knew was that her good fortune had begun with Tang Guo's arrival. Whatever Tang Guo's purpose might be, she had never harmed them and had even helped them time and time again.

She still didn't know how to repay that kindness.

Turning around, she looked toward Xie Yun. “Brother Xie, come along too. I owe you a lot.”

“Sure.” Xie Yun agreed with a smile.

Zhai Chenming would likely make his move against Tang Guo eventually. He had to keep watch to prevent anything from going wrong.

Zhai Chenming's expression changed slightly. He glanced at Xie Yun and found him particularly unpleasant to look at.

After all, Xue'er had never spoken so happily to another man besides him.

Could this Xie Yun be coveting his Xue'er?

Of course, the chill beneath Zhai Chenming's gloomy expression flashed by in an instant, and Xie Yun failed to notice.

Tang Guo, who had been secretly observing him all along, caught it clearly.

The group enjoyed a lavish meal in Trading City. Yi Yingxue also repaid the Rubik's Cube coins Tang Guo had once lent her and repeatedly insisted on thanking her properly.

While shopping, she urged Tang Guo to choose a gift.

Tang Guo casually picked out a beautiful dress, and Yi Yingxue didn't insist further.

After settling into a place to stay, Yi Yingxue and the others spent several more days exploring Trading City.

Later, they returned to the counters and bought many items they considered useful.

Women naturally loved beauty, and Yi Yingxue was no exception. However, she also valued strength.

Fortunately, she already possessed a cultivation technique, so there was no need to purchase power. Instead, she bought a large number of protective talismans.

Warned by the mysterious soul, Zhai Chenming already knew that the lottery boxes might not yield a key.

Thus, he spent more than half of his Rubik's Cube coins on improving his strength.

The Yin siblings valued strength as well, but they also cared about appearances. They used half their fortune on those things and reserved the rest for lottery draws and daily expenses.

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye, and Yi Yingxue proposed visiting the lottery boxes.

“You all go ahead. I won't be coming.”

As the group was preparing to leave, Tang Guo opened her door and spoke.

By now, they all understood that she either had no desire to leave the Rubik's Cube World or perhaps belonged to it in the first place. None of them tried to persuade her and simply nodded.

Zhai Chenming's gaze swept across Tang Guo's retreating figure before he led Yi Yingxue toward the lottery boxes.

Fairy Piaomiao and Silver Ring Daoist weren't in any hurry to try their luck.

Ever since arriving in Trading City, the two had been busy shopping wildly and eating all kinds of delicious food.
