Chapter 837 Head to the Compound
The Dragon Court is faced with a notable problem.
Heaven Dragon, the No. 2 master of the Dragon Court, is at the realm of Grand Master while Dragon King is at the realm of Expanse.
It means that the Dragon Court has suffered a succession problem.
A strong cultivator at the Ancient Martial Arts Natural State is missing.
In fact, some powerful blessed spots have strong cultivators at the Ancient Martial Arts Natural State.
Putting aside the others, the sovereign of the Celestial Master Sect is at the middle stage of the Ancient Martial Arts Natural State. This is also the main reason why the Celestial Master Sect can become the top Taoist school. Even the Maoshan Sect and the Taoist Sect are inferior to it.
Hence, it is because of Dragon King that the Dragon Court can become the order manager of Huaxia. Yet, Dragon King has deteriorated to this extent, who cannot hang on for much longer. Once Dragon King perishes, a sea change will happen to the situation in Huaxia. This is why the Dragon Court attaches so much importance to Gao Ge.
This is what the situation is like. The Dragon Court will be faced with a desperate situation. Gao Ge has become the only man to help the Dragon Court out of the situation. Besides, Gao Ge is rather resolute in his original aspiration. The Dragon Court also trusts him very much. On the contrary, Xia Shengtang is different. This man is also a genius who breaks through at an amazingly fast speed but no one knows what he is thinking about. If he is made to join the Dragon Court randomly, he may not be able to become the future backing of the Dragon Court. Instead, he can even be the first blade to stab the Dragon Court.
As such, the Dragon Court adopts a wait-and-see attitude towards Xia Shengtang. Since he started to mingle with Dragon Killers, the wait-and-see attitude becomes a defensive attitude.
Actually, Gao Ge also knows about this.
He has never thought that he must be a teammate of Xia Shengtang. All he wants is that they had better not be enemies.

In SKP Shopping Mall of the capital.
Meng Jing is holding Gao Ge’s arm affectionately. As to Xia Lu, she has been back in Song City. After all, the Spring Festival is around the corner so she also needs to go back home.
Actually, Gao Ge has thought about taking Xia Lu to the Dragon Court Compound for the Spring Festival but Xia Lu rejected his invitation.
She is also worried that Gao Ge’s parents have acknowledged Meng Jing as their daughter-in-law and won’t accept her.
Besides, Meng Jing’s parents are also in the Dragon Court Compound.
If Gao Ge really takes her home, what will it be like?
Meng Jing’s parents may think that Gao Ge is a douchebag who takes the other woman home to show off.
Xia Lu’s refusal actually makes Gao Ge relieved.
After all, Xia Lu’s concern is his too. He is also worried about whether or not his parents will have difficulty accepting Xia Lu. Even if they can accept her, what about Meng Jing’s parents?
They must fly off the handle.
“Hey, Gao Ge, what do you think I should buy for your parents?” Meng Jing asks.
SKP Shopping Mall is the luxury shopping mall in the capital. One can find luxury goods of different brands here including Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Dior, etc.
Since they are going to the Dragon Court Compound, they cannot go without anything. Meng Jing needs to buy some presents for Gao Ge’s parents. Likewise, Gao Ge also needs to buy something for Meng Jing’s parents.
As to ordinary Spring Festival holiday purchases, Gao Ge doesn’t have to worry about that. The Dragon Court has sent the things over in advance.
Besides, although Gao Ge’s and Meng Jing’s parents live in the Dragon Court Compound, they are still allowed to go out, except that they are guarded by the members of the Dragon Court. Moreover, wherever they want to go, they need to check in with the Dragon Court beforehand and then make full preparations. Not everyone can be treated in this way. There are not many people in Huaxia who can enjoy such treatment.
There is a large number of members in the Dragon Court but not every member will be targeted by the outsiders–unless he or she is like Gao Ge.
As a cultivator, both Gao Ge and Meng Jing are rich. Apart from that, Meng Jing also helped deal with the Ghost Sect, for which she has gained a big bonus from the Dragon Court. In Meng Jing’s eyes, it was her duty but she still didn’t decline the bonus. The bonus is more than one million yuan. Actually, the money is nothing to Meng Jing. A spiritual jade is worth a lot of money. Anyone may be short of money but a competent cultivator can’t. After all, capability means resources. Without resources, Meng Jing cannot develop to this extent at her age.
Probably because the Spring Festival is around the corner, quite some people are shopping in the mall. The luxury stores also start to limit customer crowding. Some people may feel discontented. Yet, this rule is quite understandable. After all, these stores need to create a good shopping environment. If too many people go into the stores, the stores will become too crowded and the shopping assistants won’t be able to attend to all the customers, which will inevitably make the customers feel neglected.
In this case, it is better to limit customer crowding from the very beginning.
Gao Ge and Meng Jing both have little knowledge about luxury products. In the end, based on the shopping assistant’s introduction, they buy two female bags and two leather belts.
Actually, the shopping assistant’s attitude is quite nice. She doesn’t feel impatient or just muddle through her work because Gao Ge and Meng Jing are too young and barely wear any luxury items. Not all salespersons are snobbish. Especially in this kind of shopping mall, a shopping assistant must be professional to some extent. Of course, there are also some snobs working in a perfunctory manner but comparatively, the number of them is relatively much smaller. Particularly, the capital is a place where there are lots of low-profile big shots. They can be some second-generation rich people or from a political family, who just have to remain low-key.
The shopping assistant would rather work in vain than make mistakes.
Carrying several bags, Gao Ge and Meng Jing get out of the shopping mall and drive the car of the Dragon Court towards the Dragon Court Compound.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGao Ge has been in the Dragon Court Compound once so he is kind of familiar with the way. However, when the car arrives at the gate, they are stopped.
“I’ve been here once,” Gao Ge says to the member of the Dragon Court at the gate.
The man actually has recognized Gao Ge by one glance. He replies with a smile, “Hello, Mr. Gao. I know who you are but you still need to call the relevant people. Without a permit, I cannot let you in...”
Gao Ge nods and doesn’t want to make things difficult for him.
After all, the more strictly guarded the Dragon Court Compound is, the more reassured he feels.
If he is allowed to go inside like this, the Dragon Court Compound won’t be that safe as he expected.
When he is making a call, a beep suddenly comes from behind him.
“Dang. Will you go inside or not?” The owner of the Audi car behind sticks out his head and curses.
Gao Ge turns around to take a glance and grins, “I’ll go away now.”
The member of the Dragon Court at the gate frowns and then glances at the owner of the Audi car. Actually, he also knows the man. The man is neither a cultivator nor a member of the Dragon Court but it is very lucky for him to have a capable grandpa who is an old accomplished member of the Dragon Court. Supposedly, even his grandpa is not qualified to reside in the Dragon Court Compound. Nevertheless, his grandpa has offended a big cultivation school during his mission, which enables him to live in the Dragon Court Compound for better protection.
Others don’t know about Gao Ge’s identity but he does.
Although Gao Ge is no longer a member of the Dragon Court now, considering the relationship between Gao Ge and the Dragon Court, he is not different from a member of the Dragon Court at all.
Apart from that, Gao Ge is really capable.
