Chapter 703 A Win-win Deal
Chapter 703 A Win-win Deal
Yue Xincheng lies on a haystack. The smell of blood permeates the air. There are corpses everywhere. This place is like a living hell. His Slaying Dragon Broadsword is tightly held by his hand, along which the blood is dripping.
Biting a straw, he is staring at the dazzling sun with narrowed eyes.
“As a saying goes, in the world, there are two things one cannot look steadily at. One is the sun and the other is the man’s heart. However, now I can’t find anything special about the sun!”
Horn Dragon standing aside leans against the haystack with half of his body, looking into the distance quietly. He is still thinking about where he should bring Yue Xincheng to. He feels that he has underestimated Yue Xincheng’s capability. Within a few days, eight cultivation schools were eradicated by Yue Xincheng. As it appears, not only Gao Ge is unbelievably capable but also Yue Xincheng is quite astonishingly impressive.
Having spent some time with Horn Dragon, Yue Xincheng looks much more muscular now. He looks like a replica of Horn Dragon.
After all, Horn Dragon is teaching Yue Xincheng the saber method. The paths they cultivate are quite alike.
Suddenly, Yue Xincheng sits up.
“Before I took action, I heard a piece of news.” Yue Xincheng stares at Horn Dragon.
“Say it.”
“It’s about Song City,” Yue Xincheng grins and says, “Don’t tell me you don’t know it.”
Horn Dragon frowns and straightens up, saying, “It has nothing to do with you.”
Yue Xincheng thinks about it and feels that there is nothing wrong with Horn Dragon’s words. It has nothing to do with him indeed.
“No, you are wrong!” Yue Xincheng walks two steps forward following Horn Dragon and seems to think of something. He stops and touches his chin, saying, “That Xia Lu is marrying has nothing to do with me but it has something to do with my boss! In this case, it has something to do with me, too! Half-master, am I right?”
Horn Dragon turns around and glares at him.
“I’m going to Song City,” Yue Xincheng says.
“Are you courting death?” Horn Dragon asks with a frown, “Or do you think you are capable enough to deal with Xia Shengtang?”
“Well… I don’t think I can but my boss can! If my boss can’t, he will be dead if he goes. I can be of help more or less,” Yue Xincheng says.
Horn Dragon sneers, “Even you know that he is no match for Xia Shengtang. Can Gao Ge not know that? He is not a dumbass. How can he go there to get himself killed?”
With the corners of his mouth lifted, Yue Xincheng says with certainty, “It seems that you really don’t know anything about my boss. He will go anyway.”
“Oh?”
Yue Xincheng thinks about it and then repeats, “He will go.”
Seeing Yue Xincheng’s confident look, Horn Dragon shakes his head and says, “If he really does, it won’t be a good thing.”
“So, I must go too,” Yue Xincheng says.
Horn Dragon suddenly turns around and kicks Yue Xincheng in the belly.
Yue Xincheng is thrown onto the haystack again.
“No way.”
Yue Xincheng gets up again and stands on the haystack. He looks down at Horn Dragon, his eyes glittering with determination and calmness. Yet, his words sound unquestioned.
“I must go.”
Horn Dragon punches Yue Xincheng, sending him flying away again.
Yue Xincheng gets up from the ground and flicks the dust off his clothes. Instead of getting angry, he laughs happily.
“I must go.”
Horn Dragon is speechless.
He didn’t feel that Yue Xincheng was a tough guy. Every time Yue Xincheng complained about something, he would change his mind after being beaten by Horn Dragon, saying that a wise man should submit to fate.
Nevertheless, Yue Xincheng looks a bit different from before.
“I must go. You can kill me now. Otherwise, I would go regardless even if I had to climb there through gritted teeth,” Yue Xincheng says with a grin, “Would you like to break my teeth now?” After saying that, he also knocks his teeth with his right index finger slightly.
Horn Dragon says nothing anymore.
…
In Song City.
In Fenglai Hotel.
In the living room of Room 666 on the sixth floor of Building Six, a man wearing a black gown is making tea.
There is a piece of Pu’er tea cake beside his hand. Anyone who knows a little about tea can tell from one glance that the tea has been reserved for at least ten years.
That’s what Pu’er tea cake is like. Reserved as a tea cake, it will grow more valuable as it is kept longer. Of course, it is not easy to reserve a piece of Pu’er tea cake.
He cuts off a small slice of the tea cake and sniffs it. Then, he gives an intoxicated look.
“The tea is quite nice,” Wu You nodded his head lightly and looks at the middle-aged man, saying with a smile, “Please express my thanks to Mr. Xia.”
“Not at all.” The middle-aged man looks humble with his back slightly bent and a smiling face.
“Oh right, please tell Mr. Xia that I will go to propose marriage tomorrow,” Wu You continues saying.
“Okay.” The middle-aged man stands up and gets out.
After the middle-aged man leaves, another two young people walk over.
“You, why do we have to wait until tomorrow? Can’t we do it today?” A man who looks a bit above 20 years old sits next to him and says.
“Hmm, what do you know? We are from the blessed spot. We should put on airs anyway. Otherwise, the Xia Family would think that I was eager to marry Xia Lu.”
“You are right.” The other girl also nods and sneers, her arms around her chest. “The Xia Family really think they are great. If it were not for the fact that the Xia Family is deeply rooted in Song City and Xia Shengtang is quite capable, You wouldn’t agree to marry that woman at all. However, if we can get the Xia Family and Xia Shengtang to work for us, it won’t be difficult for You to become the master of the Wu Family. In that case, the Xia Family will gain benefits too. I guess this is a win-win deal?”
“Actually, it shouldn’t be put that way,” the young man says with a grin, “I’ve heard that Xia Lu is quite pretty. You, you are so lucky!”
“Haha. I’ve slept with so many women. Li, listen. No matter how pretty a woman is, she can only be appreciated at home. Don’t take her too seriously or she will get cocky. Understand?” Wu You talks as if passing his wisdom to Li.
Li hastens to nod his head, “Yeah, you are right. Ahem. You, well… How about having fun tonight?”
“Emm… Do you really want to?” Wu You stands on tiptoe and asks. “Fine. You are an adult now. It’s not a big deal to hang out but you must keep this in mind. You can only goof around rather than fall in love. If a man really falls for any woman, he will be doomed.”
“Hey, You, Li, you two…” The girl stamps on her feet with fury and blushes.
“Haha, Jinxiu, do you want me to take you to meet some handsome guys?” Wu You suddenly says laughingly.
“Of course not. You two filthy rogues…” Then, the girl just runs out in a hurry with a red face.
