369: Chapter 56: Battle Again (8K Words ga Chapter)_5 369: Chapter 56: Battle Again (8K Words ga Chapter)_5 Gu Shen arrived at the courtyard and looked at the other person, frowning as he said, “Can’t you wait a few minutes?
Without the owner’s permission, how can you just barge in?”
It was their second encounter.
Shen Li seed different from last ti…
he was no longer the ruthless character who ca to fight donning several layers of iron armor; the malevolent air about him had faded substantially, making him appear sowhat gaunt.
“You spoke, only then did I push the door open.”
Shen Li furrowed his brow, slightly puzzled as he spoke.
“What I said was ‘wait a mont,’ not ‘please co in.’
“What’s the difference?
In the end, I would enter all the sa.”
“The difference is…
I rent this courtyard, and now this door has turned into a battered ss, I have to pay extra.” Gu Shen sighed helplessly.
“Why do you consider worldly objects so important?” Shen Li struggled even more to understand this odd fellow.
“Because worldly things are indeed important, especially since it was you who damaged the door, yet I’m the one who has to pay in the end.
In any case…
rember to settle the bill before you leave.” Gu Shen picked around the courtyard, eventually throwing an iron folding stool over, advising, “Don’t ruin it, otherwise, I’ll have to pay for that too.”
There were clearly wooden chairs in the courtyard…
Shen Li raised an eyebrow, looking at the iron chair sowhat exasperatedly.
“I heard from the Federation Security Committee that the fastest soone detained can be ‘bailed’ is in a week.” Gu Shen checked the ti and said, “From when you were taken away to now, only twelve hours have passed.”
Shen Li calmly said, “The man who took away is nad Du Wei.
He really wanted to detain for ten days or half a month, but in reality, he only held for one night because the person who bailed out was nad Bai Chen.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Shen already understood.
Shen Li would not be detained by the Security Committee…
that was a foregone conclusion.
Mr.
Shan had already spoken up at the Taoist School; no matter how reliable Fatty Luo’s friend was, how could he withstand such a high level of pressure?
He sighed lightly and said, “I guessed you would leave, but I didn’t expect it this soon…
nor did I expect that the first thing you’d do after leaving was to co and find .”
What was this about?
“I want to fight again.” Shen Li spoke slowly and deliberately, “Right here, you and .”
Gu Shen was silent for a long ti.
He looked at Shen Li as if watching a fool.
There was nothing more beautiful than waking up to see peace outside the courtyard.
But that didn’t an that Wind Eye had stopped paying attention to him.
Gu Shen was well aware of why Shen Li had co to find him…
a major figure in the prison like Bai Chen wouldn’t bother wasting ti supervising sothing like that.
So without saying much—
It must be so madwoman pointing the way.
It was highly probable Bai Lu was watching him now.
Thinking this, Gu Shen looked up at the sky and slowly raised his middle finger.
“Turn right when you leave, keep walking forward…” Gu Shen said seriously to Shen Li, “Once you leave the Snow Forbidden City and head south, with your stubbornness and speed, it should only take about three days to reach Da Du.”
Shen Li was a bit puzzled.
“I have a friend there, specializing in treating your kind of stubborn head.” Gu Shen pondered, using the word ‘stubborn head’ to describe Shen Li seed utterly appropriate, “Go find him and ntion my na, saying you want to be severely beaten.
By the way…
his na is Song Ci.”
“I’ve heard of Song Ci, the Angel Envoy of Qingzhong, but what you’re saying, what does it have to do with ?” Shen Li frowned, “I don’t want to fight him, I just want to fight you.”
Gu Shen replied, “Let answer you with your own words…
what you’re saying, what does that have to do with ?”
“Haven’t you understood?
…
I don’t want to fight you.”
Shen Li was stunned.
On the way here, he had never even considered this outco.
Because none of the people he knew from Changye Village was like Gu Shen.
Now he really wanted to ask, why?
“See this courtyard?
Aren’t these flowers and plants beautiful?” Gu Shen preemptively countered, seeing straight through what this straightforward fool was about to say, “Since you’re here, why not enjoy so tea and admire the flowers instead of insisting on fighting?”
Shen Li held back many words.
He was silent for a long ti, finally uttering gruffly, “You’re afraid of losing.”
Gu Shen laughed, nodding as he continued to smile.
So Shen Li was even more pained.
This strategy of provoking was utterly ineffective on Gu Shen…
“You seem very eager to fight , why?”
Gu Shen looked at Shen Li, lying on the Taishi chair, soaking in the ancient city’s warm sunlight, smiled and asked, “Is it because you lost to yesterday and your reputation was compromised, or is it simply because you want to fight?”
Shen Li heard this, his eyes sparking with an unusual glow, “Why does fighting need so many reasons?
I only know that if I fight again, I definitely won’t lose to you!”
Hmm…
indeed, a martial fanatic.
Shen Li really didn’t care about his reputation, no wonder he was willing to defy the scrutiny of the Federation Security Committee to co to the Taoist School for a battle.
No wonder too, that Mr.
Shan was willing to step in and contact the high echelons of the Security Committee on his behalf.
On the path of Extraordinary Cultivation, martial fanatics like Shen Li, who are filled with sincerity, often achieve remarkable accomplishnts.
Gu Shen narrowed his eyes, spoke softly, “If you insist on having a fight, it’s not impossible…”
Shen Li’s eyes brightened.
Gu Shen slowly rose from the Taishi chair, smiled and said, “I won’t take advantage of you, if I lose this fight, you have to grant one wish.”
