"Why are you all looking at me like that?"
Xu Wuzhou glared at these people and shouted.
Xie Guangping could no longer tolerate this disgusting person and said to Shi Sheng, "Give him!"
Shi Sheng instructed someone to fetch a thousand taels, and with a grim expression, he threw it to Xu Wuzhou, "Get lost!"
Xu Wuzhou did not care about his attitude, took the thousand taels, and thought that the Governor Vessel could now be unblocked without any problem.
"I have received the advance payment. I will take her home first to observe her. If her injuries worsen, I will notify you again."
Xu Wuzhou did not forget the professional qualities of a fraudster.
His words made the Shi family members even more displeased. Did he mean to extort them again from time to time?
"What a humiliation!"
A member of the Shi family could not contain his anger and slapped the stone table beside him hard, instantly shattering it.
Seeing this, Xu Wuzhou, without hesitation, suddenly drew his long sword, enveloped in qi and blood, and slashed at him fiercely and brutally, aiming to split him in two.
Shi Sheng, who was guarding against Xu Wuzhou, saw him make a move and his face changed. He burst with strength and directly blocked Xu Wuzhou.
"Clang!"
Xu Wuzhou's long sword was blocked, and sparks flew as the weapons clashed, both weapons now bearing notches.
"Xu Wuzhou! Do you really want to fight to the death today?"
Shi Sheng was now completely enraged. He did not want to continue the commotion with Xu Wuzhou in the Shi family. This was his family, and if a real battle to the death were to happen, many people in the Shi family would die. Therefore, Xie Guangping stepped forward to challenge Xu Wuzhou, and he was happy to see it happen.
But... since he did not give in, he had no choice but to lead the Shi family into a battle to the death.
The Shi family member was now completely terrified, standing there in a daze, sweating profusely.
He never expected that Xu Wuzhou would suddenly go crazy and attack him for no reason.
The others were also stunned. This guy had just reached an agreement with Xie Guangping for a duel in a week, and now he was breaking it. Was there any integrity left?
However, at this moment, they heard Xu Wuzhou angrily say to the Shi family member, "Who gave you the nerve to break things in my house?"
Everyone was taken aback but quickly reacted, looking at Xu Wuzhou with strange expressions: This guy was treating this mansion as his private property. Was he so confident that he could win Xie Guangping?
Xu Wuzhou did not care what they thought and said to Shi Sheng, "Guard my house well. I will come to collect it in a week. If anything is damaged, don't blame me for demanding compensation."
After saying this, Xu Wuzhou did not wait for Shi Sheng's response and left, holding Qin Qingmou's hand. Shi Sheng stood there, his fists clenched, veins bulging, his face alternating between green and white.
The surrounding young nobles, looking at Xu Wuzhou's back, fell into a dead silence.
This guy... was too arrogant! "Remember this trick. When you go to Chaoge in the future and break things at someone else's house, you can use this to win a lady's heart."
Yu Feng, watching from the side, wrote it down in his notebook. Seeing Xu Wuzhou approach, he quickly avoided him.
He had not found a place to stay for the night and did not want to leave the banquet.
He could not be too close to Xu Wuzhou, or he would have to spend the night alone.
... Inside the Shi family's inner courtyard.
Mao Yongliang angrily said to Lin Qingci, "Do you know what you are doing? If it weren't for you pushing Qin Qingmou, we could have crippled her.
Qin Qingmou entered the Dao through literature and will soon master the Dao's intent.
At that time, by nurturing weapons, the quality of the Qin family's weapons will have an absolute advantage, and the plan that the Mao and Li families have been preparing for a long time will fail. Do you understand?"
Lin Qingci looked at Mao Yongliang and said, "What does it have to do with me whether your plan succeeds or not?"
Mao Yongliang frowned and said, "Aren't you also trying to deal with Xu Wuzhou and Qin Qingmou?"
"I have my own plans. I don't look up to your low-level methods."
Lin Qingci sat there, her long legs crossed, accentuating her fiery curves, her long legs and slim waist, extremely alluring.
"You don't seem to have much better methods."
Mao Yongliang sneered, "Xu Wuzhou is so strong. Be careful you don't mess up."
These words provoked Lin Qingci. She couldn't help but think of the scene where Xu Wuzhou pinched her thigh, her eyes flashing with a cold light as she stared down at Mao Yongliang from a height, "I don't know if I will mess up with him, but I can definitely mess up with you. Do you believe me?"
"You..." Mao Yongliang glared at Lin Qingci but was stopped by Xie Guangping.
"Qingci, our enemies are the same. If you want to do something, you can tell us, and we will definitely fully cooperate!"
Xie Guangping smiled at Lin Qingci, his eyes involuntarily sweeping over her long legs, this was also a woman who could make a man's body heat up.
"No need! You should be more worried about whether your title as the First Young Master will be taken away.
I don't want him to really become the First Young Master."
After saying this, Lin Qingci left the Shi family without caring what these people thought.
"Bitch! After we deal with the Qin family, we will come for your Lin family."
Mao Yongliang, seeing Lin Qingci leave, cursed viciously.
Li Qingfei also spoke up, "What does Lin Qingci mean?
What does she want to do?"
Xie Guangping said, "Although this woman wants to deal with Qin Qingmou and Xu Wuzhou, she is not on our side."
"I just don't understand her purpose. She clearly wants to deal with these two people, but she makes it so complicated, pretending to be best friends and acting as if she was forced. What is she playing at?"
Li Qingfei asked.
Xie Guangping frowned; he also couldn't understand.
But one thing was certain: she wanted to deal with Xu Wuzhou and Qin Qingmou, and this was definitely not wrong.
As for her purpose, it was very strange.
But for now, he wouldn't worry about it.
"Let's not talk about Lin Qingci for now. Think about how to deal with Xu Wuzhou.
Brother Xie, with your peak Later Heaven strength, why didn't you kill him on the spot, but instead agreed to a duel in a week?"
Mao Yongliang asked, not understanding.
"Xu Wuzhou has hidden his strength. I estimate he also has peak Later Heaven strength.
Otherwise, he wouldn't dare to be so arrogant and provoke me repeatedly."
Xie Guangping said.
"That's impossible."
Mao Yongliang swallowed, feeling his mouth dry.
"There is a possibility. He dared to act like this in the Shi family, so he must be confident he can defeat Nephew Xie."
Shi Sheng said, "Otherwise, how could he be so angry over a woman's minor injuries? Could you do that for a woman?"
Both Mao and Li shook their heads.
"Exactly! Getting angry for a woman is a story in a book. A truly mature man would never act without considering the consequences.
He must have planned this carefully.
Even if we hadn't sent people to cripple Qin Qingmou, he would have found an excuse to get angry. We can only say that this was a timely opportunity."
Shi Sheng sighed.
"What does he mean, then?"
Mao Yongliang asked.
"He is probably targeting me."
Xie Guangping said at this point.
Mao and Li were puzzled and did not understand why Xie Guangping said this.
Moreover... Mao Yongliang voiced his doubts, "Does Xu Wuzhou even know we are in the Shi family?"
