However, Lu Mei Sha didn't care much at the moment. Let alone just a little bit of temperament, she had seen countless real martial artists.

Among the martial artists of Wushan Prefecture, there were many who pursued her.

"This Music Tower is half owned by one of my best friends. It's relatively safe for you to come here, but try not to compete with those shady young masters."

You've just arrived here and haven't settled in yet. If you suffer any losses or anything, my brother will definitely blame me again.

Lu Mei Sha continued her introduction, her attitude slightly distant.

"Also, there are three families in Wushan Prefecture that you must not offend. If you see them, address them respectfully as brother or sister."

People will give you face if they know you're from your brother's Commerce Affairs Office.

"Which three?" Zhang Rongfang had only been listening casually at first, but now he became a little interested.

"Yue, Huang, Shangguan."

"Yue was actually the family of the prefect."

Huang is the leader of the Wushan Prefecture Carving Association and owns a significant portion of the Wu Mountain industry; it can be said that they have businesses in many places.

The last Shangguan Family, the Shangguan family, is the Prefect's family. However, they are usually very few people, so it's rare to run into them. Therefore...

As Lu Mei Sha was explaining, she suddenly saw First Squad people slowly walking towards her.

The leader of that group was a boy who was no more than fifteen or sixteen years old.

This man had red lips, white teeth, and delicate skin; he was clearly a young master from a wealthy family who had never practiced martial arts or experienced the elements.

Upon meeting, Lu Mei Sha took the initiative to greet her with a smile and a wave.

"Brother Yuan Dong, weren't you supposed to be stuck at home practicing calligraphy today? How come you have time to come out and play?"

"The new tutor we hired at home doesn't know anything, so I'm too lazy to argue with him. I was bored, so I came out for a stroll." The young man's gaze swept over Lu Mei Sha's face and then fell on the tall Zhang Rongfang standing to the side.

Who is this?

"This is my younger brother, Zhang Rongfang. He's from the countryside and doesn't know any better. Please don't take offense, brother." Lu Mei Sha quickly gave Zhang Rongfang a push.

"Quickly call him Brother Yuan!" she whispered, reminding him.

Zhang Rongfang glanced at the other person, who wasn't even as tall as his neck and was clearly younger than him. How could he possibly say that? He was almost nineteen! At least two or three years older than this kid. And he called him "brother"??

Although Zhang Rongfang had made up his mind to live a quiet life for three years, he meant three years of peaceful living, not three years of living a subservient and repressed life. "My name is Zhang Rongfang. May I ask your name, little brother?" He was too lazy to pay attention to Lu Mei Sha and simply cupped his hands in a respectful gesture.

Even if you look down on these kids, you still need to have basic manners.

Little brother?!

The moment this title was uttered, the unexpected tone in the voice became immediately apparent.

Not only did Lu Mei Sha's heart skip a beat, but the other young men and women following Yuan Dong were also stunned, and their gazes all turned toward them.

Yuan Dong glanced at Zhang Rongfang, then subtly looked away.

"Let's go, didn't you want to come see the newly popular singer Ying Hongjuan who's been on fire here?"

He walked right past Lu Mei Sha and Zhang Rongfang, hands behind his back, as if he had never encountered them at all.

"Let's go, let's go."

"Haha, following Brother Yuan means you'll get to eat meat!"

"Brother Yuan is so generous, spending money like water!"

First Squad people followed happily. As they passed Lu Mei Sha and Zhang Rongfang, some of them gave Lu Mei Sha a gloating look.

Lu Mei Sha's face flushed red, her Baozi face clenched her teeth, and her dimples appeared in anger.

After the person left, she turned her head and stared at Zhang Rongfang.

"Don't you know any better?!"

"Didn't I tell you before? You're new here and don't know anything. Just do what I tell you to do! That way you won't offend anyone! Why didn't you listen?"

Zhang Rongfang smiled.

These past few days, since arriving in Wu Mountain, his sister Zhang Rongyu and brother-in -Suda Heqi have been very kind to him.

Buy him clothes, give him gifts, and arrange for someone to show him around the area where he can eat, drink, and have fun.

He gradually accepted the care he received from his predecessor's older sister.

After all, it also incorporates the memories of its predecessor.

Lu Mei Sha was the person her older Elder Sister and Brother-in-law arranged to show her around.

Actually, the girl herself is only nineteen years old. She doesn't understand many things and is still not mature enough.

These days are different from the information age of the previous generation. The teenagers here are exposed to things that are far less mature than those young kids who are glued to their phones and tablets.

So he didn't bother arguing with the other party.

"Don't worry, I won't cause you any trouble. I'll handle it myself." He casually tossed out the words and slowly walked downstairs.

Lu Mei Sha was immediately furious.

"You're going to handle it? What are you going to do? Bang your head against it? In the end, you'll just have to go to my brother!"

At first, she got along very well with Zhang Rongfang.

I never expected her to be so disobedient at such a crucial moment! Before, when she told her best friend that she was going to take her sister-in-law's younger brother around, her friend had reminded her that Zhang Rongfang had run away from home and hadn't come back for so long, but now he suddenly came to stay with his sister.

It's very likely that they couldn't make a living outside and had no choice but to come here to stay with relatives.

This kind of person probably has character and temperament issues; tell her to be careful.

She didn't think much of it at the time, but little did she expect that it would happen in just a few days?

"Don't worry, I won't be a burden to your brother."

Zhang Rongfang walked slowly downstairs with his hands behind his back, found a seat on the first floor, and listened to a Blonde Woman playing the cello diagonally opposite him.

Lu Mei Sha followed him down, fuming. Since she had promised her brother, she wouldn't leave Zhang Rongfang alone.

"You mustn't do that again! Otherwise, I'll tell my brother when we get back! You're really offending people!"

"Okay, okay," Zhang Rongfang replied perfunctorily.

In terms of actual age, he's almost old enough to be Lu Mei Sha's father. Naturally, he wouldn't stoop to the level of a little girl.

I listened to the music while organizing my thoughts.

His Attribute Panel has now been restored to full Life Attribute.

After a month of accumulation, the Attribute Points have increased to three.

He hadn't made a move before because he was worried that the experts at the Golden Wing Tower might notice something was wrong.

Throughout the journey, he refused to accompany anyone. He came to Wu Mountain alone with the Escort Agency.

Now that the Heavenly Maiden Tong Zhang and the Silver Masked Cicada are no longer around, he can finally continue to improve his Civilian Skill.

Even now, when he practices the Golden Roc Secret Record, he can still feel a stinging pain in his internal organs, which clearly shows that the Breaking Limits of his grade is still there.

However, the Heavenly Maiden Tong Zhang gave a suggestion: one could practice martial arts without Breaking Limits.

Many martial arts techniques that do not Breaking Limits do not have the additional effect of exercising internal organs.

Therefore, it becomes the first choice for many low-level Jianghu to defend themselves.

For example, Iron Sand Palm.

This skill only trains the palms and not the internal organs, so it naturally won't put a burden on them.

There's also the Iron Throat Skill, which was created to weaken one's own vital points, and it also doesn't have Breaking Limits.

Many of these martial arts techniques that focus on training specific limbs and only pursue lethality are considered harmful to outsiders, as they do not train internal organs.

However, for Zhang Rongfang, whose physique was abnormal, the Heavenly Maiden Tong Zhang suggested that he could cultivate these techniques appropriately to make up for his weaknesses.

This is also the path chosen by many masters.

Grandmasters are mostly geniuses, skilled in both literary and martial arts. Their physiques are also often incredibly strong. Many also practice martial arts with Breaking Limits.

As he was pondering this, Lu Mei Sha suddenly patted his arm.

"Yuan Dong is in charge of the City Guard and order in the entire Wu Mountain. I just inquired and found out that they have opened a small hall on the second floor for entertainment."

"Come with me later to offer a toast and apologize, and that'll be the end of it. Otherwise, Yuan Dong is petty, and if you embarrass him, it might cause trouble later."

Lu Mei Sha took responsibility; while Zhang Rongfang was listening to the music, she specifically sought out the manager of the Music Tower to inquire about the situation.

"A toast?" Zhang Rongfang shook his head slightly, only then realizing that the first thing a person needs to do to live a peaceful and quiet life is to bow their head.

In life, we have to bow our heads in every situation. Now, even when facing a little kid we've just met, we have to bow our heads.

"No need to go. If it's just a title, it will cause trouble. I told you I'll handle it."

He couldn't show off his strength, after all, it had only been two or three years, and no matter how talented Zhang Rongfang, it was impossible for him to have mastered a high level of martial arts under normal circumstances.

Low-ranking martial artists have little deterrent effect on these sons of powerful and wealthy families.

Therefore, the only way to resolve this is by relying on the power of the Golden Wing Tower.

This requires confidentiality regulations.

"You!!?" Lu Mei Sha was immediately furious.

At first, she thought Zhang Rongfang's bad temper was just a rumor, and that he was actually quite nice to get along with. But now she really knows him.

"By the way, you mentioned before that your brother is in charge of business matters here. Has he encountered any trouble or obstacles?"

Zhang Rongfang suddenly asked.

His purpose in coming here is to recuperate, accumulate Attribute Points, and find a way to break through to the Super Grade, or even higher.

Since that's the case, he'd be even more determined to help his Elder Sister and Brother-in-law deal with their troubles.

In order to create a more stable environment.

"No, my brother never talks to me about these things," Lu Mei Sha replied reluctantly, as he changed the subject.

"Are there any people studying ancient scripts here?" Zhang Rongfang asked again.

He couldn't understand the Scripture Silk he had received before, so since he needed to recuperate this time, he decided to prepare in advance and start learning the Locked Script first.

"Maybe we can find it at the Academy."

"Hmm." Zhang Rongfang nodded, seemingly lost in thought.

"Mei Sha!" Suddenly, a person slowly walked up from the side.

The man was a Tall Thin Youth, followed by two bodyguards. He wore a black brocade robe, held a white paper fan, had sunken cheeks and dark circles under his eyes, and looked like he was completely Essence, Qi, and Spirit.

"It's been a while since we last met. You've become even more beautiful, Mei Sha?" the young man said with a grin.

"Come on, I'm annoyed right now!" Lu Mei Sha said irritably.

"What? I heard you brought your brother's brother-in-law out to broaden his horizons? Why are you getting annoyed again?" the young man laughed.

"He won't listen to me!" Lu Mei Sha rolled her eyes at Zhang Rongfang, who was standing right next to her, completely disregarding the fact that he was there.

"That's not right." The young man smiled, looking puzzled. "I've met his sister before. She's very sensible. Those legs, those breasts, hehe, no wonder the merchant is so infatuated with her."

"Watch your mouth, are you not giving me any face?" Lu Mei Sha said with dissatisfaction.

But the displeasure in his words was only expressed through a symbolic retort.

"Oh dear, how could I dare? But you can just deal with this casually, right? Your brother spoils you so much anyway."

The young man said with a grin. He then looked at Zhang Rongfang standing to the side.

"Hey buddy, how about hanging out with me, Lao Fang? My treat." He waved his hand.

"I don't want any other reward from you. Isn't your sister quite the player? When the Minister of Commerce gets bored, she can come out and keep him company."

"If you say another word, I'll tear your mouth apart."

Zhang Rongfang suddenly said softly.

Although his voice was soft, Lu Mei Sha and the three thin young men heard it very clearly, which was strange.
