Chapter 469: Chapter 468 You Have to Cover for Me

Having understood the condition of his body, Su Yang was reminded of another matter.

In fact, not long ago, Su Yang wasn’t far from the Immortal Herbs. During those days in Beiguan Town, he was mostly with Ye Wantong, very close to the Immortal Herbs.

Logically, if the Immortal Grass Fruit could guide the power of the Immortal Herbs, he should have absorbed the power of the Immortal Herbs long ago.

However, he hadn’t been able to absorb the power of the Immortal Herbs for such a long time; instead, it was tonight, after driving for a short while, that he directly absorbed the power, which was very strange.

Su Yang certainly didn’t believe this was due to his own luck; everything must have its reasons.

After careful thought, he had fought Chen Benhao and Ye Jiansheng consecutively tonight.

The fight with Chen Benhao was not worth mentioning. Although it was intense and exhilarating, it didn’t put much pressure on Su Yang. Moreover, Chen Benhao eventually lost on his own, sparing Su Yang a lot of effort.

The truly dangerous fight was the one with Ye Jiansheng. When Ye Jiansheng’s longsword bore down, Su Yang truly felt the fear of death.

It was this fight that fully sparked the power within Su Yang’s body. Even the power of the Immortal Fruit was stimulated.

Although Su Yang had consumed the Immortal Grass Fruit before, it only healed his internal organs without being fully absorbed by him.

Ye Jiansheng’s strike earlier completely stimulated the power of the Immortal Fruit. Later, when Su Yang was driving and got close to the Immortal Herbs again, that led to the current circumstances.

Thinking about it this way, was the complete absorption of the power of the Immortal Herbs and Immortal Grass Fruit, and such an improvement in strength, all thanks to Ye Jiansheng?

Looking at the ashes of the Immortal Herbs in his hand, Su Yang was at a loss for words; this was something he had not anticipated at all. Would Ye Jiansheng even think of this?

Sitting back in the car, Su Yang casually picked up the cell phone from the car seat, which had over thirty missed calls, mostly from Ying’er. There were also two other calls, one from Fatty and one from an unknown number.

Su Yang called Ying’er first. The moment Ying’er answered, she let out a sigh of relief, "You finally returned the call. I thought you were beaten to death by Wan Tong’s dad!"

"..." Su Yang was speechless: "The matter with Ye Wantong has been settled. I forgot my phone in the car last night and didn’t see it."

"It’s settled?" Ying’er asked excitedly, "Really? How did you manage that? Did you beat up that Chen Benhao and chase him away? How long will that last? What if Wan Tong’s family keeps forcing her to marry? Then what?"

"It’s completely settled. Her dad agreed not to make her marry," Su Yang said.

"Really?" Ying’er was very surprised, "How is that possible? The marriage was arranged by her dad, and he just changed his mind?"

"It’s hard to explain over the phone; you should ask Ye Wantong about it later," Su Yang said. He couldn’t explain to Ying’er about the Su Family matters, or the Law Enforcers from heaven. These were things that couldn’t be explained.

After hanging up, Su Yang called Fatty, only to find out that this guy was asking about the lunch arrangements. That dead Fatty, after settling his family affairs, went back to his usual lavish and indulgent lifestyle, mainly preoccupied with thinking about food.

Su Yang had Eight-Faced Yama arrange it for them, and finally, he called the unknown number.

When the call connected, Chen Benhao’s voice came through, "My gosh, your phone is really hard to get through to!"

Su Yang was surprised, wondering how Chen Benhao got hold of his number.

"Is there a matter?" Su Yang asked.

"Nonsense!" Chen Benhao said, "I’m not leaving until tomorrow, and the marriage with the Ye Family has fallen through. It’s not time for dinner yet, so tell me if there’s anything going on!"

Su Yang was speechless for a moment, realizing that Chen had come to freeload a meal.

"Alright, I’ll arrange something for lunch," Su Yang said.

"No need for lunch, let’s do dinner," Chen Benhao said. "Even though the marriage is off, I still need to visit the Ye Family at noon to get the betrothal gifts back."

"Alright then, let’s plan for dinner!" Su Yang laughed. "Is there anything specific you’d like to eat?"

"There’s nothing specific I want to eat, and I don’t know what’s good around here; you decide," Chen Benhao paused, emphasizing his words, "But it better be expensive; I won’t eat if it’s cheap!"

"Hahaha..." Su Yang laughed heartily. "No problem, I’ll get you a few diamonds for dessert tonight!"

"Good, I’ll take them to go if I can’t finish!"

After hanging up the phone, Su Yang couldn’t help but chuckle again. Although Chen Benhao was known as the Monster of the Chen Family, he had a personality very much to Su Yang’s liking. It was rare to see someone like him, and having such a friend was nice.

He drove back, and since he didn’t need to have lunch with Chen Benhao, he decided to continue spending time with his own friends.

Eight-Faced Yama personally came forward to greet Fatty and the rest. Su Yang joined them for lunch; in the afternoon, he strolled around the city with them. As dusk approached, he had Eight-Faced Yama arrange for a car to send them back, considering that school was starting tomorrow.

When they were about to leave, Zhao Qiu Peng held Su Yang’s hand, looking reluctant to let go, and said, "Xiao Yang, the college entrance exams are about to start. You’ve got to come back and take at least one!"

"Why?" Su Yang wondered.

Zhao Qiu Peng’s eyes were brimming with tears as he said, "If you don’t take the exams, there will be no one to score lower than me; I don’t want to be the last one in the ranking!"

"Get lost!" Su Yang said, shaking off his hand. "If I take the exams, I won’t be satisfied unless I get the top score in the entire city; otherwise, I’d be embarrassed to say I ever went to school."

"Pfft!" The people from Destiny Martial Arts all gave Su Yang the finger.

"That’s some pretty tall talk there!" Fatty chuckled.

Su Yang said, "You guys might not believe me, but I just don’t feel like taking them. If I did take the exams, I bet I could even be the top scorer in the whole province!"

Everyone looked at him with disdain as Fatty said, "Sure, you can say whatever you want since you’re not taking the exams anyway. As long as you’re happy, that’s all that matters!"

"Come on!" Su Yang gave Fatty the finger in return and said, "It’s impossible to have a conversation with uneducated people like you. Just get lost!"

After seeing everyone off, Su Yang tidied up a bit and headed straight for Heavenly Food Garden.

Heavenly Food Garden was an old, established restaurant in the provincial city, known for its particularly high prices and absolutely high-end consumption. Most importantly, the prices here were elevated due to the impressive taste of the food.

The prices at Eight-Faced Yama’s villa were also high, but that was mainly due to the service provided; having seven or eight beauties accompany you in a private room for a meal inevitably led to those high prices, which was a different story compared to Heavenly Food Garden.

Therefore, dining at Heavenly Food Garden and entertaining at Eight-Faced Yama’s villa had become a consumption habit among the wealthy people of the provincial city.
