7 min read1,625 words

Xu Wuzhou looked at Xie Guangping, who was protecting Shi Sheng, and asked.

"Xu Wuzhou, causing such chaos in someone else's estate, do you really think you can do whatever you want in Lin'an City?"

Xie Guangping shouted.

"Ha ha!"

Xu Wuzhou laughed, his eyes burning as he looked at Xie Guangping. "Actually, I don't care that you sent people to assassinate me.

But there is one thing I am very unhappy about."

"I didn't send anyone to assassinate you!"

Xie Guangping denied, then asked, "What are you unhappy about?"

Xu Wuzhou glanced sideways at Qin Qingmou. She had long eyelashes and a beautiful eye line, with clear and bright eyes, and she was also staring at him.

"Qin Qingmou being the first beauty of Lin'an City is well-deserved. Since ancient times, beauties have matched with heroes. If she can marry me, it means that the first young master of Lin'an City should be me, and that would be a perfect match.

But why do you deserve to be called the first young master?

Don't people misunderstand?"

Xu Wuzhou glared at Xie Guangping.

Many people wanted to spit in Xu Wuzhou's face: Does Qin Qingmou not know why she married you?

Just because of this, you consider yourself a hero and want to be the first young master? Don't you have any shame! Qin Qingmou was also at a loss, wondering why this guy was taking it so seriously, even getting jealous over this.

"The title of the first young master is a recognition from everyone, not something I claimed for myself."

Xie Guangping stared at Qin Qingmou, who had a round buttock and a full chest, with a graceful figure.

This was the woman he had always wanted to possess.

"Then starting from today, you should change your title.

I think the title of the first wild duck suits you."

Xu Wuzhou said.

Xie Guangping didn't know what "wild duck" meant, but he knew it was an insult.

He said with a dark face, "It's not your place to tell me what to do.

The first young master of Lin'an City will never be you."

"I don't really care about the title of the first young master, but it's really annoying.

If you don't want to change your title, then I'll just kill you. I'll see who dares to call themselves the first young master of Lin'an City."

Xu Wuzhou said with a smile.

"Your tone is getting bigger and bigger."

Xie Guangping looked at Xu Wuzhou.

Xu Wuzhou glanced at Shi Sheng behind Xie Guangping and said, "The weather today is nice, sunny and bright, a good day to kill. I've already killed three people, and I'm not satisfied yet.

What do you think?

Since you want to kill me, and I want to kill you, why don't we see who has the faster sword?"

Xie Guangping's brows furrowed as he looked at Xu Wuzhou, who was standing there with a smile. He was wary: What is this guy relying on to be so confident?

He dared to cause chaos and kill in the Shi family estate, and now he wants to provoke me into a fight.

There must be a trick! This guy must be hiding his true strength; he might have reached the peak of the innate realm.

It must be so; he has endured so much humiliation and must feel strong enough to show his true power.

Although he also has the strength of the peak innate realm, he didn't want to take the risk of a life-or-death battle with Xu Wuzhou.

Unless... he could master that set of combat skills, then he wouldn't fear anyone in the innate realm.

"What do you think?

Since you want to protect Shi Sheng, why don't we have a fight?"

Xu Wuzhou still smiled at Xie Guangping.

"I'm not like you, causing chaos in someone else's territory. If we are to fight, it won't be now."

Xie Guangping thought to himself, I'm not a fool. If I fight you now, you're hiding your strength. Do you think I can't see through it?

Pretending so obviously, do you think everyone is a fool?

Xu Wuzhou still had a smile on his face, but he was actually afraid that Xie Guangping would agree.

He attacked the Shi family without thinking that Xie Guangping and the others would be there.

With his strength, he was not afraid of the Shi family.

But with Xie Guangping, Xu Wuzhou's strength was not enough.

Most importantly, he had to protect Qin Qingmou, which was his true concern.

He wouldn't let those who wanted to kill him off easily.

But... let them jump around for a few more days. I'll take some silver and metal from you before settling the score.

"You don't want to fight, then get out of my way."

Xu Wuzhou was still extremely aggressive, glaring at Xie Guangping with a cold look, and his killing intent was directed at Shi Sheng.

Although Xie Guangping was wary of Xu Wuzhou, he couldn't let Shi Sheng be killed.

Shi Sheng was a loyal supporter of the Shi family. If he ignored it, it would make other supporters lose heart.

"Xu Wuzhou, don't think I'm afraid of you.

If you want to fight, let's fight.

A week from now, on the stone platform for the competition, we will have our battle.

If you win, I'll give you an explanation.

If you lose, you'll have to pay the price."

Xie Guangping said with a snort. In a week, his combat skills should be mastered, and then he would be invincible in the innate realm of Lin'an City.

Xu Wuzhou looked at Xie Guangping and laughed, "What?

Are you preparing for a week?

Fine.

But let me remind you, you still have an advantage now, but I'll be even stronger in a week."

Xie Guangping sneered, are you really so kind to remind me? Where will you be in a week?

Scaring who?

But I can use the treasure to master the combat skill that is just one step away. Then it will be your end.

The people present looked at each other in surprise.

The first waste of Lin'an City and the first young master actually agreed to a battle. Does Xu Wuzhou really want to take the title of the first young master? Where does he get the confidence! Xie Guangping has always been invincible among the young generation, and even in the entire Lin'an City, he is definitely one of the top twenty strongest.

"A week from now, we will have our battle.

But before that, please leave the Shi family estate."

Xie Guangping said.

"Not in a hurry!"

Xu Wuzhou said, "Let's first clarify what you will do if you lose, so you don't back out."

"What do you want?"

Shi Sheng was extremely frustrated, but Xu Wuzhou's strength made him endure.

Xu Wuzhou looked around the Shi family estate, which was surrounded by white walls and green willows, a delicate and elegant residence. He was looking for a place to stay outside.

"Such a quiet and elegant residence is very suitable for a gentleman like me.

I am always magnanimous, so I will take this residence as compensation and not hold you accountable for what you did."

This statement made the Shi family furious.

Xu Wuzhou was being too overbearing, wanting to drive them out of their home.

"I agree!"

Xie Guangping said.

"Nephew!"

Shi Sheng shouted, this was their ancestral home. If they were driven out, the Shi family would never be able to hold their heads up in Lin'an City again, and anyone would come to step on them.

"Do you think I can't win?"

Xie Guangping asked Shi Sheng.

Shi Sheng wanted to say something but held back.

Seeing Shi Sheng's silence, Xie Guangping said coldly, "Now can you leave the Shi family estate?"

"Qin Qingmou was injured in the Shi family estate. Before we talk about compensation, at least pay for her medical expenses to treat her injuries."

Xu Wuzhou said to Shi Sheng.

"How much do you want for the medical expenses?"

Shi Sheng's face was extremely dark.

"Her injuries are so severe that at least a thousand taels would barely cover a course of treatment."

Xu Wuzhou said.

A thousand taels, that's a huge sum. A thousand taels could buy more than one medicinal herb.

Seeing Shi Sheng's silence, Xu Wuzhou said, "Since the incident happened on your territory, I'll put the compensation aside for now. But you won't even pay for the medical expenses?

You can't be so shameless!"

Li Qingfei and Mao Yongliang wanted to spit in Xu Wuzhou's face: You are so greedy, and you still have the nerve to call others shameless. Your shamelessness lives up to your reputation.

"Miss Qin doesn't seem to have very serious injuries."

Shi Sheng said coldly.

"That's because she is strong and is enduring it.

If you don't believe me, I can make her lie on the ground for you to see."

Xu Wuzhou looked at Qin Qingmou and whispered, "Cooperate with me later."

Qin Qingmou's beautiful face turned red as if it were bleeding. How could Xu Wuzhou say such a shameful thing?

Lying on the ground, she couldn't do it.

"I'm telling you, if she faints and lies here,

This matter won't be over. Her injuries are so severe that a residence can't make up for it.

I will be furious, and my killing intent will cloud my mind, leaving no room for reason."

Others were stunned, their understanding of shamelessness was refreshed: To make such a beautiful woman lie on the ground to extort silver?

Do you have any shame?
