1165: Chapter 375 Yixiao (Added for Alliance Hierarch Quan Jiang Ben Wang!) 1165: Chapter 375 Yixiao (Added for Alliance Hierarch Quan Jiang Ben Wang!) Zhao Rucheng has encountered many won in his life.
He didn’t need to do anything; a single glance was enough to easily capture their hearts.
Sotis, he didn’t even need that; rely removing his mask was enough to attract won like moths to a fla.
He never invested his emotions.
In this world, nothing is permanent.
From individual people to entire nations, from enmity to love, nothing is an exception.
He only wanted to live his life lightly intoxicated.
Not too drunk to forever forget past events, people, or mories…
And not too sober…
How could he continue living like that?
Human capabilities have their limits; the more intelligent one is, the clearer they see the true nature of the world, and thus, the more pessimistic they beco.
In a small town, making a few friends, the most successful among them might just beco the town’s City Lord.
Perhaps working at the Procuratorate, teaching at an academy, or serving in the City Guard Army…
If there were so troubles, he would quietly handle them.
With inexhaustible wealth in this small town, maintaining moderate cultivation, drinking and visiting brothels, fighting Mountain Thieves.
Occasionally being arrogant and overbearing, but sotis also acting chivalrously by “supporting the weak and punishing the strong.”
This was how he wanted to live his life, peacefully and joyously with these people.
That’s what he thought, and that’s what he did.
But, soone did not agree.
So people…
damn, wouldn’t even agree to that!
Zhao Rucheng’s beautiful face, hidden beneath a bronze mask.
His emotions, concealed within those peach blossom-like, beautiful eyes.
These were affectionate eyes.
Though he lacked deep feelings.
At this mont, he was looking at Helian Yunyun.
Watching Helian Yunyun’s smile.
He had t many won, and he would et many more.
But maybe there would never be another smile like this one that made such a deep impression on him.
Maybe it was just because tonight…
He was too vulnerable!
“Can it be done?” Zhao Rucheng asked.
He rarely looked at Helian Yunyun so earnestly, “I an, Jinge is the son of Jin Yandu, the leader of Iron Cavalry.
Yuwen Ze helping , it’s like their internal competition.
If you intervene, will it destabilize the Iron Cavalry?”
Helian Yunyun smiled back at him playfully, those grey-blue eyes as if piercing through the heavy bronze mask: “You look really good when you’re serious, I an…
very profound!”
Zhao Rucheng: …
“Um…” Yuwen Ze erging from the tent: “Actually, about this matter…”
Helian Yunyun cast a light glance at him.
“Take your ti to discuss this matter.” Yuwen Ze swallowed his words, leaving with a naively cheerful smile: “I’m quite busy.
I’ll take my leave first.”
As swift as the wind under his feet, he disappeared as soon as his words faded.
Only then did Helian Yunyun, still smiling, look back at Zhao Rucheng, and then ask: “Do you care about ?”
Zhao Rucheng was skilled at handling these situations, of course not enough to be bashful.
But he wasn’t in the mood to go with the flow either.
He hinted subtly, “I’m just worried you’re too naïve, seeing so matters too simply.
Although your status is noble, not all tasks can be rashly undertaken.
You certainly don’t have the freedom that Yuwen Ze does.”
Helian Yunyun’s eyes twinkled with amusent: “From now on, you appear even more lovely in my eyes.”
She stepped closer to Zhao Rucheng, looking at him with hands clasped behind her back: “There are so things I still can’t tell you now.
But what I can tell you is that replacing Jinge at the Yellow River Gathering won’t negatively affect our Helian Clan.
Of course, the precondition is that you truly are stronger than Jinge.”
Zhao Rucheng looked deeply at her before saying: “I think, my confidence, is as plentiful as yours.”
Helian Yunyun said, “Then why not pick any day that cos…”
Having fought in the Border Wilderness for so long, Zhao Rucheng was not the least bit daunted by battle.
He was indeed prepared to fight Jinge and imdiately stepped out.
“Let’s set our engagent today!”
Zhao Rucheng almost tripped.
Helian Yunyun covered her mouth and chuckled: “Just kidding.”
Zhao Rucheng sighed in relief and continued walking out.
Helian Yunyun quickly caught up and said, “As the Imperial Princess of Da Mu Empire, of course I cannot casually set an engagent.
You should at least bring ten thousand cows, ten thousand sheep, ten thousand bolts of cloth, and invite a few heroes to accompany you to greet in a grand manner, right?”
Zhao Rucheng: …
All he wanted now was to have a fight with Jinge.
“Alright, alright…” Helian Yunyun beckoned like coaxing a child, “Co on, Princess will take you to find Jinge.”
In the river breeze of July at Guanhe Platform, the two walked side by side.
After tonight’s diversion, they seed to have beco a bit more familiar—previously, it was only Helian Yunyun being overly familiar on her own.
Zhao Rucheng always buried his emotions deep, trying hard to appear normal.
It was no different tonight.
He casually asked, “By the way, how did you co here today?”
Helian Yunyun smiled and said, “I had business with Yuwen Ze.”
Of course, she wouldn’t say that she ca over to catch Zhao Rucheng “cheating” with Yuwen Ze when she heard that Zhao Rucheng was drinking with Yuwen Ze.
Zhao Rucheng said, “Then…”
“Now it’s no issue!” Helian Yunyun obviously was in a good mood, her voice cheerfully ringing like a silver bell in the wind.
Almost outrightly saying—”My only reason for finding Yuwen Ze was you.”
“I have a question,” Zhao Rucheng quickly moved past the topic and asked, “Princess Yun, with such a noble status, do you not have much to do every day?”
“I, of course, ca to find you after I finished my tasks!” Helian Yunyun said proudly, “Rest assured!
Helian Yunyun harbors great ambitions and is not a person obsessed with beauty.”
Zhao Rucheng looked at her…
Indeed, she seed to have great aspirations.
“Let’s talk about Jinge,” said Zhao Rucheng.
“Sure!” Helian Yunyun was very cooperative.
“What kind of person is he?”
“He’s much less handso than you!”
“…How about sothing I don’t know?”
“Shall we talk about Cang Ming then?”
The Current World Divine Envoy Cang Ming, indeed a legendary and mysterious figure.
As the number one prodigy under thirty in the Shepherd Empire, Zhao Rucheng had mingled with the troops of Shepherd Empire for so long, yet he had never once encountered this person.
He was just shifting the topic casually and did not intend to extract any information about Jinge.
He wanted to secure this position through sheer strength, so as not to owe Helian Yunyun too much.
Therefore, he said, “That works too.”
Helian Yunyun imdiately said, “He’s a bit better looking than Jinge, but not as handso as you.”
Zhao Rucheng was slightly exasperated, “Princess Yun, could we discuss sothing more concrete?”
Helian Yunyun thought for a mont, and said, “Cang Ming is probably about eleven Yuwen Ze’s better looking than Jinge, but thirty-one to thirty-three Yuwen Ze’s less handso than you.”
That was indeed very specific…
And even included so margin!
Zhao Rucheng was sowhat at a loss for words.
But…
He followed Helian Yunyun, walking forward in the night.
Placing his hand gently over his chest.
The heartache inside him seed, slightly alleviated.
