"Why is it impossible?" Lou Yi handed the flattened Iron Gall to everyone present to see.
They squeezed it with their hands and chopped at it with their swords, all showing the sa expression as Xu Haoren.
How could this be possible?
"Impossible, this is impossible!" Xu Haoren’s face turned ashen, still growling unwillingly.
However, in the face of irrefutable facts and the many noble family scions present, he could only admit defeat.
Lou Yi laughed heartily, gathered the silver notes, Bone-piercing Orchid, White Dew Stone, and other spoils from the table, and swaggered out.
Of course, he didn’t forget to take the deford Iron Gall with him.
Zhan Weida naturally followed him out.
On the way, he kept asking Lou Yi what kind of Blinding Technique he used, but Lou Yi just smiled without a word.
Today’s haul was indeed substantial.
Not only did he obtain the necessary materials to advance his Breathing Technique and talent, but he also won over ten thousand taels of silver.
Now, it’s ti to return to the Hundred Beasts Mountain Range.
...
Moon Embracing Residence.
The many noble family scions were still imrsed in Lou Yi’s recent ’feat’, and no one spoke up.
"Alright, now I get it!" Xu Haoren suddenly ca to his senses, walked over to the braided girl from Fulin Escort Agency, and angrily pointed at her, saying, "Lin Tianqi, you must have colluded with that guy!
You gave him the broken Iron Gall beforehand, and then he swapped it during the fight, right?"
"Yes, it must be like this!" Xu Haoren’s lips curled into a confident smile, as if he had seen through their trick.
"If you’re sick, you’d better get treated early!" The braided, cute girl Lin Tianqi couldn’t help but retort and left in anger.
Yet, Xu Haoren’s gaze flickered, but he didn’t stop her.
After all, she was the Chief of the Escort’s only daughter, her family background was not much inferior to his.
After Lin Tianqi left, the others present seed to lose interest as well, and they all left one after another.
What was supposed to be a martial arts exchange feast used to socialize with noble family scions ended abruptly.
"I didn’t expect Liu Yi to act so recklessly, upsetting Brother Xu." Jia Hong’s expression returned to normal, she picked up a wine vessel from the table and said apologetically, "I’ll drink three cups as punishnt, please don’t take it to heart, Brother Xu."
Xu Haoren waved his hand, feigning magnanimity: "No worries, I wouldn’t fuss over such a person.
Besides, he is he, you are you, why should Miss Jia bla herself?"
He looked at Jia Hong’s flawless, beautiful face with a fiery gaze.
Jia Hong seed embarrassed under his gaze, lowering her head shyly, making her even more alluring.
Seeing that everyone else had left.
Xu Haoren couldn’t resist reaching for her small hand, but she inadvertently avoided it.
Jia Hong chuckled lightly, stood up, revealing her graceful and slender figure.
"Young Master Xu, we will et next ti."
She turned and left, her steps light and elegant, making Xu Haoren’s gaze grow even hotter.
What he didn’t see was.
Jia Hong’s face had already turned cold, her eyes flashing with rare anger.
...
"How dare Liu Yi ruin my major plan!" In the Extre Fist Sect, the Great Elder Zhou Bufeng, upon hearing his female disciple Jia Hong recount slowly and calmly, flew into a rage.
His bulging muscles, due to the rapid flow of Qi and blood, swelled once more, nearly bursting his black mandarin jacket.
"I must go and have a talk with him!" Zhou Bufeng abruptly stood up, ready to trouble Lou Yi.
"Master, he is Elder Zhang’s disciple..." Jia Hong gently reminded.
"How about Elder Zhang’s disciple, even if he’s a disciple of that old guy Wei Youdao, I will educate him today!" Zhou Bufeng said with a domineering tone.
Seeing this, Jia Hong couldn’t help but show admiration.
Zhou Bufeng arrived at the Martial Arts Arena, glanced around, and then fixed his gaze on Zhan Weida: "Where is this kid Lou Yi?"
Zhan Weida replied, "He has an urgent matter at ho, just asked for leave."
"Hmph!" Hearing that Lou Yi wasn’t there, Zhou Bufeng felt his anger couldn’t find an outlet and had to swallow it down, leaving in anger.
While Zhan Weida stood where he was, his mind couldn’t help but recall what Lou Yi said before leaving.
"If there’s an extrely urgent matter, you can go to Shi Family Pawnshop, they have a way to find ."
’What urgent matter could I have?’ Zhan Weida shook his head, not taking it too seriously.
Besides, even if there was sothing the Zhan Family couldn’t solve, Lou Yi wouldn’t be able to help much.
On the other hand, Lou Yi didn’t rush to leave the main city.
Because the pink-clad maid Xiaoqian suddenly ca to find him.
"Miss wants to see you."
Leaving just this sentence, Xiaoqian puffed up with anger and stood by the carriage’s door, unwilling to talk to Lou Yi.
"Did I offend you?" Lou Yi was sowhat puzzled.
"You tell , you said you’d co find Miss in a couple of months, and you didn’t." Xiaoqian was soone who couldn’t hide anything, and said fiercely, "Do you know how much danger Miss encountered not long ago?"
"If not for a master passing by at the right ti...never mind, I’m not saying anymore, but if I were Miss, I definitely wouldn’t care about you!"
Xiaoqian selectively forgot that Lou Yi did co by before, but they ignored him.
After she finished, Lou Yi understood what was going on.
He then teased her on purpose: "What did that master look like, was he as handso as ?"
At this mont, Lou Yi, wearing the second Human Skin Mask given by Xiaoqian, had fair skin and a handso appearance.
Seeing Xiaoqian’s face redden, she spat: "The master is a noble person, unlike you, being frivolous and lacking decorum."
"By the way, when we get to our Su family, don’t wander around, don’t talk to strangers, don’t enter other rooms rashly..."
Fearing Lou Yi would cause trouble, Xiaoqian continuously nagged him like Lady Xianglin.
The carriage arrived at the Su Family’s gate.
The guards at the door saw them and let them pass directly.
The Su Family estate was large, with pavilions and towers, carved railings and painted buildings, rockeries, and flowing water, showcasing their affluent heritage.
They arrived at a courtyard entrance, the two got off.
The courtyard was filled with various flowers, colorful and blooming furiously.
Several maids in gray skirts were diligently trimming the branches and leaves.
They passed through the courtyard and entered the inner room.
What ca into view was a luxurious screen embroidered with a lady’s boating picture in light blue, and a figure could be vaguely seen behind it.
Xiaoqian led Lou Yi forward, around the screen, and finally t Tian Sush\r
She wore a cyan dress, the skirt hem reaching her ankles, a purple silk ribbon outlining her delicate waist.
Her hair was styled in a high bun, with a white jade hairpin inserted, a few strands of dark hair hanging down, her skin white as jade.
Her beautiful eyes seed to flow with watery light, captivating the heart.
As expected of a noble lady, she naturally exuded a noble and elegant aura.
"Xiaoqian, you may leave now."
The first sentence she spoke took Lou Yi by surprise, as she told Xiaoqian to leave first.
Xiaoqian’s face showed reluctance, but she could only leave.
Before leaving, she glared fiercely at Lou Yi, warning him not to misbehave.
Once Xiaoqian left, only Lou Yi and Tian Suxian were left in the room.
"Little Qian, you may go now." As if sensing Lou Yi’s thoughts, Tian Suxian ordered.
Her first words were unexpected to Lou Yi, she furrowed her brows: "In my Su Family, are you still worried about my safety?"
"Yes." Although Xiaoqian was unwilling, she left.
After Xiaoqian left, the entire room was left with only Lou Yi and Tian Suxian.
"I was betrayed by a servant and accidentally fell into Young Master Xu’s plot recently.
I thought I was certain to be in danger, but a sage appeared and saved ." Tian Suxian began to speak, her voice calm and pure.
"Oh really, Little Qian ntioned this to just now." Lou Yi’s expression remained unchanged, and he replied.
"Is that so? Then why do I feel that the sage seems very similar to you?" Tian Suxian suddenly moved closer, her small nose twitching with satisfaction.
"You don’t know, but my nose has always been sharp, I can sense people’s scents on them."
She leaned so close to Lou Yi that her warm breath brushed against his arm.
And with the fragrance emanating from her, it was impossible to resist, his Qi and blood were boiling, stirring for unknown reasons.
Lou Yi hugged her slender waist that was as soft as nothingness.
"Didn’t you know, curiosity killed the cat?" said Lou Yi with a smile.
Tian Suxian’s body went weak when touched by Lou Yi, as if she had no strength.
Her watery eyes looked up at Lou Yi, filled with a hint of panic.
