“What? Lu Shaoyou wants to duel with Wang She?” Zhou Bao blinked, not realizing what had happened right away. Yan Yunfei smiled and explained the ins and outs of the incident to him. Zhou Bao finally understood what was going on.

It turned out that after Wang She entered the Mysterious Realm, he began to cause trouble for Lu Shaoyou. Whether it was intentional or unintentional, it had been entirely aimed at Lu Shaoyou. Lu Shaoyou was not a person who could be trifled with either. Although his teacher, the Master of Golden Lights Cave, had been beaten badly by Zhou Bao and thus didn’t dare exit the closed-door training, he still had the School of Five Virtues to back him up. Undoubtedly, he would not show weakness. The two of them had fallen out with each other.

“Well, is there a deep hatred between Wang She and Lu Shaoyou?”

“Why would you ask that?”

“Because the whole thing was stirred up by Wang She. He provoked Lu Shaoyou first. Furthermore, lately, in the Jianghu, rumor has it that when you attacked the Mingyi School, Wang She snuck into the forbidden area of the school and dug up the grave of the Man of Honor Ji Zhongtang’s beloved wife. This is another factor in why Lu Shaoyou wants to fight with him!”

“Beloved wife? Haha, haha…!”

Hearing “Ji Zhongtang’s beloved wife”, Zhou Bao burst out laughing. In this world, apart from Ji Zhongtang, Lu Shaoyou, and Wang She, Zhou Bao was probably the only one who knew how Ji Zhongtang’s wife had actually died. While Zhou Bao was attacking the Mingyi School, Wang She had taken his mother’s remains, but Zhou Bao felt there was nothing wrong with that. On the contrary, it was worth pondering how this Jianghu rumor had come out.

“It seems that Wang She is ready to make things clear and bring this matter to an end with his father!” Zhou Bao contemplated some more and soon understood. However, this was someone else’s private matter. Since no one knew the truth, he felt it was inappropriate to explain it to Yan Yunfei. He just smiled and said, “I can’t miss something so interesting. When will they fight?” …

“Three days from now, at the top of Dragon Gate!”

“Dragon Gate?” Zhou Bao was slightly confused. “What on earth is that?”

“It’s Ji Zhongtang’s hometown. It is exactly where Ji Zhongtang exchanged Lu Shaoyou with his own son and also where his wife was killed. I guess the reason Lu Shaoyou chose this place is he wants to avenge Ji Zhongtang’s wife’s death. After all, Wang She destroyed her remains!”

“I see. Dragon Gate, interesting. This is a good drama. Yunfei, would you like to go with me and watch?”

“Sure, in any case, I have nothing to do now!” Yan Yunfei happily agreed to this proposal. For so many years since they married, Zhou Bao had always gone wherever he needed to go alone. No matter what he did, he had never thought of taking her out with him. Of course, she was overjoyed to hear him putting forward such a suggestion now.

“Well, pack up your things. We will set off tomorrow and look around on the way. You must be bored staying in the Lord Mansion all these years!” Zhou Bao said with a smile. He looked at Yan Yunfei whose eyes were shiny.

The next day, after handing the affairs of his territory over to others, Zhou Bao left the Wuyang Region with his wife. He broke the void and arrived close to the Dragon Gate in Jin.

A distance of hundreds of thousands of kilometers was a piece of cake for him.

Dragon Gate was a market not so prosperous. It was even a little bit shabby. Ji Zhongtang was somewhat famous in the martial arts world in those days, but his strength had only reached the Expert Realm. He lived here with his wife and son, wanting to enjoy a peaceful life. Unfortunately, his peaceful life had been ruined.

Zhou Bao wore a cyan robe and carried a Green Bamboo Stick in his hand. From time to time, he hit the ground and looked around. The two hammers behind him clanged, attracting some attention.

In fact, what really attracted people was not the tinkling sound that the two hammers made, but Yan Yunfei beside him.

Yan Yunfei was a beauty in her own right. Since marrying Zhou Bao, she had given birth to two children. Furthermore, she possessed unparalleled strength and was a Level Nine Expert. She held an air of dignity that only Level Nine experts could carry. Moreover, as a young woman in the Wuyang Region, she was delicate and charming. When all these factors were added together, only the words “unsurpassed beauty of a generation” could describe her.

Followed by an eccentric scholar in cyan, such a gorgeous beauty appearing in a small town like Dragon Gate… If it was an ordinary time, it would definitely have caused a sensation throughout the entire town. However, since the White Blademaster Lu Shaoyou and Wang She were due to fight in two days, Dragon Gate had long been crowded with all kinds of people. A month ago, all the inns in the small town were fully booked, and so were all the residences. Some residents even moved out of their houses and rented their houses to Jianghu guests who came to watch the scene at a high price. It was only because Zhou Bao’s Anyuan Store was very powerful, that it could acquire a house with four yards for him and Yan Yunfei to settle down.

As soon as they arrived at Dragon Gate, rather than resting, they went out shopping together. Although the marriage between them could be called a typical political or arranged marriage, Yan Yunfei was still very satisfied with him. Marital life over the past few years had also caused the affection between the two to grow deeper and deeper. Nevertheless, under great pressure, Zhou Bao had always been on the go for so many years. Never had the two been so idle in the streets as they were today. From time to time, they stopped on the street to buy trinkets for fun.

Yan Yunfei was very happy, and her face revealed her satisfaction.

She was a gorgeous woman by nature. Now the smile on her face came from the depths of her heart, enveloping her in endless charm. The street in Dragon Gate was bustling with people everywhere. It was already very crowded. When Yan Yunfei smiled, people found it even harder to move forward. Countless pairs of eyes stared at her, with saliva dripping to the ground.

Zhou Bao was annoyed. He raised his eyebrows and snorted coldly. An invisible ripple emanated from his body hitting the spirits of her admirers.

BOOM!!!

The men staring at Yan Yunfei froze as if they had been struck by lightning.

Zhou Bao knew how far to go and when to stop. He only frightened their spirits; he did not hurt them.

“Yunfei, let’s go back. If we continue wandering on the street, all the men of Dragon Gate will come out!” Zhou Bao suggested helplessly after frightening the onlookers.

“All right!” Yan Yunfei covered her mouth with her hand and smiled.

Zhou Bao took Yan Yunfei away from the bustling streets, but they did not return. Yan Yunfei obtained a veil out of nowhere and put it over her face to cover her appearance. The two of them again wandered about in the suburbs of Dragon Gate.

After strolling for a while, Zhou Bao frowned his eyebrows slightly. Yan Yunfei also seemed to be aware of something; her expression changed as well.

“Interesting, it seems his target is us!” Zhou Bao said to Yan Yunfei, suddenly smiling.

Someone was secretly approaching them. The attacker had a very good cultivation and was a Level Five Expert. For Zhou Bao and Yan Yunfei, Level Five Experts were nobodies. However, in the Jianghu, a Level Five Expert was also a local ruler and famous character. Zhou Bao couldn’t remember when he had offended such a guy. Even if he had offended him, who would have the guts to cause trouble for him?

“Perhaps he’s attracted by your beauty?” Zhou Bao glanced at Yan Yunfei with a mischievous grin.

“Hmm!” Yan Yunei cast a sharp glance at Zhou Bao and fiercely raised her hand. A ribbon rose up in the air and stretched 100 feet away. Obviously, the person in the dark did not expect Yan Yunfei to have martial arts skills, never mind martial arts skills that were so unmeasurable. There was no room for him to resist at all. He was entangled in the ribbon and brought before them.

“Who are you? Why did you approach us secretly?”

Zhou Bao looked at the man in front of him with a sullen face.

“Who, who the hell are you?”

The man was in his 30s and looked quite dignified, but at this moment, there was a look of sheer terror on his face. Yan Yunfei’s moves were really quite strange. He was a master at Level Five and not too old, thus, he was very confident in his own strength. He did not expect that he would not have the power to fight back in front of this woman.

“Who are we? Interesting, who are you then?”

“I’m the Leader of the Wuyi Sect of Dragon Gate. You’d better let me go, otherwise, you will suffer the consequences!”

“The Wuyi Sect?” Zhou Bao looked blank. He had never heard of this sect. However, he had not heard of many sects in the martial arts world.

“The Wuyi Sect is the largest sect in Huangzhou. Its Master is a Level Eight expert who is very influential in Huangzhou, a man of his word!” Yan Yunfei put in beside him.

“You know quite a lot about it!”

“Humph!” Yan Yunfei let out a cold snort from which great dissatisfaction was revealed. Zhou Bao immediately shut up; the look on his face was somewhat embarrassed. In recent years, he had been engaged in the closed-door training, and thus, the important matters in the Wuyang Region and Anyuan Store were all decided by Yan Yunfei. Of course, she knew much more than he did.

“Is the Leader of the Wuyi Sect really something?” Zhou Bao curled his lip. “Come on, why on earth did you approach me and my wife in secret?”

“I came here under the orders of my Young Master!” While saying this, he looked up at Yan Yunfei.

Zhou Bao blinked and glanced at Yan Yunfei too. He understood what the man had come for. Yan Yunfei was flushed with embarrassment. She understood what was going on.

“Alas, people in this world are tempted by beauty too easily. Yunfei, it seems that this is the trouble you caused!”

“Humph, what should I do?”

“What should you do?!” Zhou Bao sneered and said in a high-sounding tone. “Just look at what he has done, I can infer that his Young Master is not a good guy, without even knowing how many people have been harmed by him. I wouldn’t care if I hadn’t encountered this matter personally. Now that I’ve encountered it, it is inevitable for me to enforce justice on behalf of heaven!”
