Invincible from Seeing the BOSS's Health Bar

Miss Zuo Lv arched her eyebrows slightly, lowering her voice a bit.

”Have you heard that, you too have been grounded?”

The word ”also” was cleverly used.

Ever since the gathering at the Bonfire Gathering, Miss Zuo Lv had been grounded at home by the family elders because of the incident.

Only during large gatherings like today could she find a legitimate reason to step outside.

Upon seeing how obedient Hei Ao was today, she sensed that he, just like herself, must have been grounded.

After all, they both experienced the Bonfire Gathering incident together and got involved in matters concerning the Absolute Sect. Both the Hei Family and the Zuo Family would likely share a similar stance towards the Absolute Sect.

The Absolute Sect was not to be taken lightly, significant enough to gain attention from the Five Great Families. Naturally, they would not allow the younger generation to act recklessly and invite trouble.

However, the Absolute Sect was involved with the Bonfire Gathering, which was entangled in the chaos between the Lin Family and the Li Family. When it comes to provocation, what the Absolute Sect was doing was already inappropriate.

Despite being grounded, she still managed to stay well-informed.

Miss Zuo Lv’s trust in the Absolute Sect was waning. The sect, known in the rumors for continuously battling demons, didn’t seem so pure after all.

Indeed, seeing is truly believing.

Today, the Absolute Sect disrupted the Lin and Li Families. Maybe tomorrow, they could start meddling with the Zuo Family.

Unfortunately, the elders at home held no suspicions towards the Absolute Sect, still stuck in the stereotypical impression that the Absolute Sect was a unique sect solely opposed to demons and indifferent to all other matters.

It was critical for the elders to realize there was a problem with the Absolute Sect and to begin an investigation!

Miss Zuo Lv, being a child of the Zuo Family, naturally considered the family’s overall situation.

However, she was unsure what Hei Ao was thinking.

If Hei Ao shared the same thoughts, the two of them might cooperate, finding a way to secretly investigate the matter. With Diao Deyi supporting from the outside, even without leaving home, they could still arrange strategies from afar.

Yet the current Hei Ao seemed a bit reluctant to engage with her.

He averted his gaze from Miss Zuo Lv and closed his eyes.

”What grounding? I don’t understand what you’re talking about. These days, I’ve been diligently practicing at home, just too lazy to go out.”

At this moment, what’s the need for pretense??

Miss Zuo Lv glanced around; a group of people whispering towards them was irksome.

More importantly, she overheard some far-fetched whispers.

”That would be Miss Zuo Lv, the jewel of the Zuo Family, she is incredibly beautiful!”

”When did Miss Zuo Lv start getting involved with Brother Hei Ao? The relationship between the Zuo Family and the Hei Family seems average, not much interaction on normal days.”

”What do you know! They’re a match of talent and looks, not for you to nitpick! I often hear from the elders, ’Don’t judge a book by its cover’. Today the two of them standing this close, isn’t it clear that there’s intention for the Hei and Zuo Families to join forces? Marriage is just the beginning of breaking the ice!”

Merely a bit of interaction led to malicious speculation.

Both being prominent figures, wherever they went they were the center of attention, naturally they couldn’t avoid such gossip.

Miss Zuo Lv frowned slightly, speaking while gently tapping on the table.

”Starting to chase now, isn’t it a bit late? That guy definitely concealed his true strength that night, and didn’t exert his full capabilities.”

The tabletop rippled strangely, expanding a few lines, and as Hei Ao’s hand rested on the table, his palm immediately felt a frictional noise as if someone was writing something in his palm.

With a sweep, Hei Ao opened his eyes.

”Knowing shame is close to valor. Our talents, resources, far surpass that guy. By settling down, we will inevitably catch up and surpass him.”

Saying this, Hei Ao rose and passed by Miss Zuo Lv, heading outside.

”And about the things you mentioned, I’m not interested.”

Unlike the little material Miss Zuo Lv obtained.

In the Bonfire Gathering, Hei Ao got the Black Phoenix Blood from Fang Yu.

Now every minute, every second, he was researching how to control this power to increase his own strength.

It can be said that if the encounter that night recurs, besieged by many demons, just by unleashing the power of the Black Phoenix Blood, he wouldn’t need Fang Yu’s assistance to handle the enemies on his own!

This is the domineering cultivation technique of the Hei Family, paired with the terrifying strength enhancement of the Black Phoenix Blood.

Times have changed, he has already risen to a higher level and is still climbing up. The potent power of the Black Phoenix Blood reinforced his physique, also lifting his cultivation progress to a higher level.

It could be said that since returning from the Bonfire Gathering, Hei Ao has entered a rapid period of strength growth and is still growing!

Although there was some notion of being grounded by the family elders, he himself was indeed in rigorous practice. Even if not grounded, he wouldn’t go out.

What’s more, the grounding command from home was a soft command; if he truly wanted to go out, there were few people at home who could stop him.

Different from Miss Zuo Lv, Hei Ao was the third young master of the Hei Family, his status within the Hei Family was completely different from that of Miss Zuo Lv in the Zuo Family.

Hei Ao, being the beloved of thousands in the Hei Family, while Miss Zuo Lv, at best, stood out only due to her talent in the arts of the Zuo Family among many siblings.

”Hei Ao!”

Seeing Hei Ao about to leave, Miss Zuo Lv instinctively reached out and grabbed his wrist.

Had she not grabbed it, it wouldn’t have been an issue, but with her grab, the people around immediately gasped.

”She, she grabbed him!”

”Bad! Brother Hei Ao is going to explode!”

”Today, the Brewing Pavilion is going to see blood!”

”The family elders are in the upper layers of the pavilion, even Hei Ao wouldn’t dare to make trouble, right...”

”Do you know what you’re talking about? That’s Hei Ao, the third young master from the Hei Family!”

Those present were all children of the Five Great Families; everyone knew well that the famous Hei Ao had a volatile temper.
