Chapter 81: Gu Yun

Upon hearing Du Fei's words, Bai Yi and Zhu Le's eyes twitched slightly.

To be fair, although these two were not top-tier figures in Buyue City, there were probably only a few people who dared to speak to them like this, and Du Fei was likely the only one.

Moreover, they were well aware that even if they joined forces, they might not be a match for Du Fei.

Du Fei's methods had long made them wary. Without mentioning anything else, the consequences for those from the Lian family who had provoked Du Fei had already put them on high alert.

No one wanted to lose their life in a moment of anger.

Therefore, although this time it was intentional, when Du Fei appeared, both of them felt a jolt in their hearts. After a moment, their expressions returned to normal.

Taking a deep breath, Zhu Le said coldly, "Young Master Du, I'm afraid your words alone aren't enough to make us give you any explanation."

"Is that so?" Du Fei smiled, his expression extremely pleasant. "No problem, let's give it a try, shall we?"

"Who is he?" A cold gaze focused on Du Fei, and after a moment, Gu Yun sneered and spoke coldly.

"Ha ha, Brother Gu, this one is the current top young talent of the Du family, Du Fei... and also the 'young master' that this little Ai girl keeps calling out..." Bai Yi hesitated for a moment before speaking in a low voice.

"Du Fei?"

Many people who had been secretly shaking their heads for Little Ai drew in a sharp breath upon hearing this name. Their gazes then fell on Gu Yun and the others, filled with a hint of pity.

Many had heard of Du Fei's methods, and now, these few people were likely in deep trouble... "Is this the Du Fei?" A hint of surprise flashed in Gu Yun's eyes, and the anger he had felt instantly dissipated. He stared at Du Fei for a moment before his face showed a thoughtful expression. "Not bad, indeed a remarkable person. No wonder you all are so afraid of him!"

Hearing this, Bai Yi and Zhu Le's eyes twitched again. They naturally knew that with Gu Yun's skills and background, he wouldn't look up to them, but they didn't expect him to be so disrespectful.

Hearing Gu Yun's words, Du Fei also smiled faintly. At this point, he had to admit that this suddenly appearing person was not simple. Could it be that the Bai family, Lian family, and Baiyi Sect had specially found someone to deal with him?

Smiling faintly, Du Fei casually kicked the man on the ground away and then his gaze fell on Gu Yun. He smiled and said, "I haven't had the pleasure of your acquaintance... who might you be?"

"Gu Yun, just a minor character, not worthy of Young Master Du's attention!" Gu Yun also smiled faintly, speaking calmly.

"Is that so? A minor character, yet Bai Shao and Brother Zhu have to follow like dogs. It seems the Bai family and Baiyi Sect are becoming more and more out of line..." Du Fei shook his head and sighed repeatedly. "I was planning to set up a banquet to apologize, but since you both admit your identities, it seems the apology isn't necessary... and don't worry, although I'm not a good person, I do consider the owner when dealing with a dog. So, let's call it a day, and you can scram."

Hearing Du Fei's words, the onlookers couldn't help but laugh. With Bai Yi and Zhu Le's status, who would dare to scold them like this? Although the Bai family and Baiyi Sect were not overly high-profile, they had done some things that had angered the heavens and people, causing much resentment. With this opportunity to watch a show, no one would miss it.

The laughter around them made Bai Yi and Zhu Le's faces turn extremely ugly. If not for Du Fei's skills, they would have attacked in anger long ago. Even so, their gazes at Du Fei were like those of someone ready to kill.

Du Fei's words also made Gu Yun narrow his eyes slightly. After a moment, he stared at Du Fei and smiled faintly, saying, "Young Master Du... you understand the principle of considering the owner when dealing with a dog... so, should you also give me an explanation? Even if it's my dog, only I have the right to discipline it, not others!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Yi and Zhu Le's faces changed again! Growing up, when had they ever been so humiliated? Although they knew Gu Yun looked down on them...

Hearing this, Du Fei was also slightly taken aback. After a moment, he sneered. Now he understood that Gu Yun was likely a person of significant background, and probably sent by those people to deal with him. However, it seemed Gu Yun also looked down on those people.

And today's incident? Could it really be a coincidence? Fortunately, he happened to pass by today; otherwise, Little Ai might have... Thinking of this, Du Fei's eyes turned cold, and his gaze lingered on Gu Yun for a moment before he smiled faintly and said, "Brother Gu Yun, I don't think an explanation is necessary... but if I'm not mistaken, you seemed ready to make a move on my Little Ai?"

"What? Want to give Little Ai to me? If so, I can pretend nothing happened!" Gu Yun smiled.

Du Fei patted his forehead and sighed, "Brother Gu Yun, wake up. Dreaming in broad daylight isn't a good thing... if you really haven't seen women, there are a few wild horses in my stable. If you're interested, I can have them sent to your residence!"

"Heh, Young Master Du is quite different from what I've heard. Your sharp tongue is no better than a shrew's!" Gu Yun's face changed slightly, and he said calmly.

Du Fei clapped his hands lightly, "Mutual! We're both half a pound, eight ounces! However, I think we've talked enough... Young Master Gu Yun, don't say I didn't give you a chance. I'll only say this once... if you kowtow and apologize, I'll pretend I didn't hear anything. Otherwise, heh..."

Hearing this, Gu Yun's face twitched slightly. After a moment, he also sighed regretfully and a sinister smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Kid, I didn't want to act so soon, but since you're asking for it, I can't be blamed!"

"Many people have said that to me, but they seem to be dead and gone. You can ask the two beside you; they probably feel the same!" Du Fei smiled faintly and said slowly.

"Master!" Little Ai looked worried. "Let it go. Since they're provoking you, they must be prepared... how about..."

Hearing this, Du Fei smiled and gently tapped Little Ai's head, then smiled faintly, "You little fool, even if you let it go now, what about the future? Troubles should be dealt with immediately. I don't have the patience to wait!"

Saying this, Du Fei lightly stepped forward, his figure sliding a few steps forward and slowly landing in the center of the scene. His strange gaze swept over Gu Yun, "Young Master Gu Yun, if you're afraid, feel free to have everyone attack together!"

"Deal with you! No need!"

Gu Yun also smiled faintly, and his figure flickered, instantly appearing in front of Du Fei. Then he formed a claw with his right hand, and in an instant, true qi formed a blade-like edge at his fingertips. As he moved, he struck down at Du Fei's head.

Standing still, Du Fei squinted his eyes, secretly admiring Gu Yun's skills.

An expert's move reveals their skill!

Gu Yun's skills were far superior to the two behind him, even surpassing Du Han!

However, that was all!

Du Fei's figure flickered, and he fell to the left. Just before hitting the ground, he slapped the ground with his left palm, causing his body to bounce up. His right elbow then struck hard at Gu Yun's chest.

Gu Yun's figure suddenly turned, and his right hand drew a strange arc in the air. Then, his true qi-infused claw collided with Du Fei's strike.

"Bang..."

A dull sound echoed as the two true qi forces spread out, causing both to retreat.

This impressive scene drew cheers from the onlookers.

Although it was just one exchange, it showed that both were extraordinary.

As they retreated, Du Fei did not back down. Instead, he smiled coldly, stomped his right foot, and his left foot flew up, striking hard at Gu Yun's face.

Seeing this fierce strike, a hint of disdain flashed in Gu Yun's eyes. He swung his hand, and a wave of true qi instantly struck Du Fei's foot.

"Bang..."

Du Fei's body trembled slightly, and he almost slid backward, his left foot twitching slightly.

"True qi outside the body!"

"Is this the mark of an Eighth Rank Warrior?"

"Could this young man actually have the strength of an Eighth Rank Warrior? That's truly monstrous!"

Seeing this, the crowd was in an uproar, and their faces turned strange.

Gu Yun's current display of strength was already on par with an Eighth Rank Warrior. Such strength would secure a position as an elder in any faction in Buyue City!

While Du Fei was powerful, according to rumors, he was only a Ninth Rank Warrior.

If only considering warrior strength, it seemed Du Fei was not just slightly inferior!

For a moment, everyone's gaze focused on Du Fei. If they remembered correctly, Du Fei's greatest strength was as an alchemist. But if the other party wanted to deal with him, wouldn't they know this?
