When these words were spoken, not only Wang Chuyi, but also Ouyang Ke and the others were greatly shocked. Since Peng Lianhu entered the Prince's residence, he had always been keeping a low profile, showing none of the arrogance and tyranny he was rumored to have. Everyone thought he had been frightened by the so-called Invincible Lone Swordsman. Who would have thought that he would suddenly become defiant and even challenge Wang Chuyi?
Peng Lianhu, however, was inwardly laughing bitterly. In front of that little demon, he wished he could keep a low profile forever. But since the little demon had instructed him to do this, how could he dare to disobey?
He was secretly terrified. Not only was this young prince's sword skills superb, but he was also so ruthless. Wang Chuyi had merely scolded him a few times, and he was already planning to use harsh measures!
Recalling what Su Yi had told him, "Don't hold back, just leave him a life. This time, we must give him a good lesson!"
Peng Lianhu couldn't help but feel a chill. He considered himself ruthless, but compared to Su Yi, who would casually order an attack on his elders, he was far inferior.
Hearing Peng Lianhu's words, Wang Chuyi was first stunned, then his face turned ashen. He coldly asked, "Is this your Prince's idea, or yours?"
Peng Lianhu smiled, "Of course, it's the Prince's idea."
"Fine! We will attend the banquet on time!" Wang Chuyi shouted angrily, "Let's go!"
He pulled Guo Jing and left directly.
Seeing the puzzled looks of the others, they had no idea when Wanyan Honglie had ever invited the high-ranking Taoists of the Quanzhen Sect, let alone the fact that the Prince wasn't even there...
Peng Lianhu was inwardly laughing bitterly, but he showed no sign of it, pretending not to see their gazes, and left directly.
Su Yi escorted Bao Xiruo back to her room and said, "Mother, rest for a while. I have some business to attend to."
"Um..." Bao Xiruo replied, then worriedly said, "Kang'er, be very careful. I don't know why, but my heart has been pounding all day, I fear something is about to happen..."
"Look at what you're saying. If your heart didn't pound, you'd be dead. A stronger heartbeat just means you're healthier than most people. Don't worry, rest well."
Bao Xiruo couldn't help but laugh, then her face turned back to worry.
On the other side, Wang Chuyi and Guo Jing had already used their lightness skills to reach the outskirts of the city. Wang Chuyi was full of surprise, tightly grabbing Guo Jing's shoulder and asked, "You are Guo Jing? Guo Jing from the Great Desert?"
Guo Jing nodded dumbly.
"Wasn't it my eldest master who taught you martial arts?"
"Who's your eldest master?"
"My eldest master is named Ma Yu..."
"Oh..." Guo Jing suddenly understood, "So Daoist Ma is your eldest master. He did teach me martial arts."
"Indeed, it's you...!"
Wang Chuyi, overjoyed, grabbed Guo Jing and shook him hard.
"I didn't expect that although you are rather dull, your talent is so high, and your internal cultivation is so strong!" After witnessing Guo Jing's battle with Liang Ziweng and others, Wang Chuyi couldn't help but sigh. Truly, the younger generation surpasses the older! This child's martial skills may not be excellent, but his internal cultivation is probably not inferior to his own...
Guo Jing was about to say that he had practiced a secret manual sent by Daoist Ma, but he suddenly remembered the young Taoist's repeated instructions not to tell anyone, including the Quanzhen Sect members. He had promised and even sworn, so he hesitated and couldn't speak.
Wang Chuyi smiled in relief and said, "Since that's the case, you should accompany me tonight."
Guo Jing hesitated, "But I feel that their intentions are not good!"
"You silly child, do you know who that young man in green was?"
Guo Jing honestly shook his head.
Wang Chuyi smiled, "His name is Yang Kang. Now you understand, right?"
Guo Jing suddenly understood. He had carried a dagger with Yang Kang's name on it for several years, even though he later lost it, he knew clearly what his relationship with Yang Kang was!
He exclaimed, "Is he the son of my father's sworn brother?"
"Exactly!" Wang Chuyi stroked his beard, "He is the Yang Kang who will challenge you in Jiaxing in the future!"
Guo Jing was stunned, his brain struggling to process the information, "I know he should be my sworn brother, but why do we have to fight?"
"You don't know?"
"I've never heard of it."
"It seems the Seven Heroes of Jiangnan haven't told you yet. Since that's the case, I won't say more..."
Wang Chuyi smiled, "In short, you need to know that your parents made an agreement. If you two were one male and one female, you would be married. If you were the same gender, you would be sworn siblings. Although you haven't sworn yet, he is your close relative, there's no doubt about that!"
"Moreover, this child has lived in the Quanzhen Sect for a while, and I know him well. Although he comes from a wealthy family, he has no airs of luxury and is very approachable. He's a good child. Although we don't know who is behind the banquet, with him there, I believe it will be safe!"
Wang Chuyi concluded, "So let's attend the banquet on time. I feel that this child seems to have become a bit wild after leaving the Quanzhen Sect for two years, and he needs to be disciplined..."
Poor Wang Chuyi, if he knew that Su Yi had no intention of showing up at the banquet, he would probably cry and regret his words. He trusted Su Yi completely, but Su Yi was using him as bait.
...
Shouldn't there be any problems?
Su Yi thought carefully and realized that in the original story, Wang Chuyi didn't have any life-threatening issues, just poisoning. Now that he had instructed Peng Lianhu and communicated with Wanyan Honglie, ensuring that Wang Chuyi's life would not be harmed, they should be safe.
But to use his elder like this... Su Yi sighed, "I am truly a sinner!"
"What?"
"Oh, nothing..." Su Yi cleared his throat and asked, "Did you take care of what I asked you to do?"
The guard standing next to Su Yi patted his chest and said, "It's rare for you, Young Prince, to give us a task. How could we not complete it? Rest assured, the lovely young lady is already in your guest room, waiting for you to enjoy her!"
...
...
Su Yi's mind went blank...
After a moment of hesitation, Su Yi hurriedly asked, "What did you say? You brought the girl to my room?"
"Yes!"
Su Yi asked, "What about her father?"
The guard smiled, "We followed your instructions and didn't hurt anyone. The old man resisted fiercely, but we restrained him and left him there without injuring him... of course... the young lady wasn't hurt either. You can rest assured!"
He winked at Su Yi, "We even had a nanny give her a bath and change her clothes... You can enjoy her anytime~!"
"Enjoy your grandfather!" Su Yi couldn't help but curse, "What did I tell you to do?"
"Bring the father and daughter, don't hurt them, don't alarm anyone... that's it."
"You brought the girl, but where is her father?"
"You want the father too!?" The guard's eyes widened. Holy crap, that's too much.
Su Yi took a deep breath and said angrily, "Of course! I mainly wanted the man. What the hell did you bring his daughter for? Do you think I'm some kind of uncontrollable pervert?"
The guard awkwardly scratched his head and laughed, "We really misunderstood. We thought you were attracted to the girl's beauty..."
Su Yi smiled helplessly, pointed to the gate, and said calmly, "Go and bring the old man back. Remember, don't hurt him, don't alarm anyone, and put him directly in the dungeon! If you don't follow my instructions this time..."
Su Yi took a deep breath and suddenly shouted, "Then you will spend the rest of your life in the dungeon!!!"
"Yes~~~"
The guard, stunned by Su Yi's sudden shout, scrambled to the gate, shouting, "I will bring the old man to you!"
"Really!" Su Yi sighed helplessly. Now, the misunderstanding is huge, and the girl is already washed and on the bed...
"What a mess..." Su Yi sighed helplessly to the sky!
