"So?"
Yang Guyun asked.
"So we just haven't figured out yet how much love we should have and how much power we should have."
Yang Guyun's mouth twitched slightly, as if he wanted to suppress his smile, but couldn't hide it.
"You laughed!" Zhou Qiubai teased, his eyes full of joy.
"No."
"Definitely laughing."
"My face is paralyzed."
"..."
The two walked side by side in a teahouse, and the storyteller inside was telling a wonderful story, "Speaking of which, the swordsman White Clothes beat the snow, One Sword From the West, and the autumn leaves Xiao Xiao fell from the sky! Have you ever thought that the devil actually took three steps back, and the steel sword in his hand broke with the sound!"
Applause came from the window.
Zhou Qiubai paused slightly and took a peek through the half-open window lattice.
"Did you hear that?" he asked softly.
Yang Guyun nodded, with a hint of longing in his expression.
This is the case in Jianghu, stories always move faster than people.
Your sword in the ring today will become a legend in the tea house and restaurant tomorrow.
It's real and fake, and you add more fuel and jealousy to it. In the end, even you can't tell how amazing that sword is.
It doesn't need truth, just legend.
"Let's go." Zhou Qiubai looked away and said in a relaxed tone, "First fill your stomach, and then think about making money."
When they returned to the inn, it was already dark.
When the shopkeeper saw them returning, a smile broke out on his face, "Young Master Zhou, Young Master Yang, you came back early today!"
"Shopkeeper, please send two meals to the room." Zhou Qiubai handed over a few Soul Copper Coin, "Plus a pot of tea."
"Okay, please wait!"
Zhou Qiubai did not rush back to his room, but followed Yang Guyun in.
Yang Guyun took off his coat and hung it up, turned around and looked at Zhou Qiubai with a serious expression. "What do you want to say?"
"It's about money." Zhou Qiubai sat at the table, "Heaven Dou Auction House..."
"The risk is high." Yang Guyun answered quickly, with a hint of caution in his tone.
"The benefits are also huge."
The two looked at each other for a moment.
Heaven Dou Auction House, not only rare treasures circulate there, but also all kinds of shady information, and even human lives.
Auction House is naturally open to all comers to Spirit Bone. Although his age is not high, it is not impossible for him to be regarded as the finale.
"That's it."
Zhou Qiubai made the decision.
"Just decide what you want." Yang Guyun said, opened the door and invited Zhou Qiubai out.
He doesn't want to talk nonsense with him now.
······
At the same time, Blue Tyrant Academy is deep.
Liu Erlong was sitting on the main seat, with the tea set in front of him, but he didn't take a bite. The delicate features on his face were full of anger.
Flender and Yu Xiaogang sat under her, and the atmosphere became extremely dull.
"Sister Erlong, please don't get angry yet." Flender pushed up his glasses and tried to ease the tense atmosphere, "After all, those people can't afford to offend."
"Impulsive?" Liu Erlong sneered, with anger flashing in his eyes, "In front of so many people, you dare to bully Xiao Gang. Do they want to die?"
Yu Xiaogang's face was gloomy and his lips were pursed tightly.
However, he did not refute.
It's not that I don't want to, it's that I don't know what to say.
There is almost no reason to refute what Zhou Qiubai said.
There is no waste Martial Soul, there is only waste Soul Master
He has been saying this all his life, but deep down in his heart, he himself is the one who doubts it the most.
Luo Sanpao and Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon failed to mutate and are stuck at level 29 for life.
If this sentence is true, then wouldn't he Yu Xiaogang...
"Okay Erlong." Flender sighed, "Things have already happened, and it's useless to talk about it now. As for Zhou Qiubai, we have to figure out his origins, and Xie Ru and Chen Xuan..."
At the mention of these two names, Liu Erlong's anger seemed to have subsided a little.
She picked up the teacup and took a sip of the cooled tea, her voice still filled with anger. "Boss Fu, you just came to Heaven Dou City, you don't know the depth of this place, Xie Ru... that's not someone we can mess with."
"Is he really that strong?" Yu Xiaogang finally spoke.
He only knows that Xie Ru's literary talents are everywhere in the world, and most of the literati in Heaven Dou Star Luo Empire claim to be his students.
But Soul Master cultivation base...
Never heard of it.
"Qiang?" Liu Erlong glanced at him, "Xiao Gang, do you know 'Blood Moon Incident' ten years ago?"
Flender frowned slightly. "I heard a little bit. I heard that a group of Evil Soul Master attacked Heaven Dou City, and were finally repelled by a mysterious strong man..."
"It's not repelling." Liu Erlong interrupted him, "It's total annihilation. Seven Evil Soul Master, three Titled Douluo level, four Soul Douluo level, overnight, no bones left."
She paused and said word by word, "Only one person took action, and it was just Soul Douluo."
Yu Xiaogang's pupils suddenly narrowed.
"Impossible." He subconsciously retorted, "Although the gap between Titled Douluo is huge, if Soul Douluo is to defeat one against three, they will all be wiped out..."
"Sword Douluo Chen Xin, afterward personally came to ask for a sword." Liu Erlong continued, "The two of them stayed at Back Mountain for a stick of incense. When they came out, Chen Xin only said one sentence."
"What words?"
"I am not as good as this sword."
The hall fell into dead silence for a moment.
Flender almost dropped the tea cup in his hand, while Yu Xiaogang froze in place, with all the blood drained from his face.
Sword Douluo Chen Xin, level ninety-six Titled Douluo, recognized as the leader of Sword Dao, even he considers himself inferior...
So what level should Xie Ru's sword reach?
"As for Chen Xuan." Liu Erlong said in a slightly slower tone, "He is the nephew of Xie Ru, and he is also the most mysterious one among the younger generation of Heaven Dou City. No one has ever seen him take action, but everyone who provoked him... disappeared in the end."
Not dead, but gone.
Not even the bones can be found, it seems like they have disappeared from the world.
"So." Liu Erlong looked at Yu Xiaogang, with rare tiredness in his eyes, "Xiao Gang, listen to my advice. Don't provoke them again. Just pretend this never happened."
It's true that she is a love brain, but she still has a bit of sense.
Putting aside the mystery of Chen Xuan, the influence of Xie Ru alone is enough to kill them.
Yu Xiaogang's lips moved.
He wants to say that his theory is correct, that Zhou Qiubai is just a fluke, that...
But in the end, all the words got stuck in my throat.
Because he saw the worry in Liu Erlong's eyes and the solemn look on Flender's face.
He is now Yu Xiaogang, level 29 Soul Grandmaster, Yu Xiaogang who relied on the protection of his friends to gain a foothold in Heaven Dou City.
"I understand." He lowered his head and temporarily suppressed his inner unwillingness.
Just wait...
When Xiao San becomes famous, that's when he will wash away everything.
Flender breathed a sigh of relief, walked up to him, and patted his shoulder gently. "Xiao Gang, I'm not blaming you. It's just that Heaven Dou City... the water is too deep. We finally reunited, and I don't want anything to happen to you again."
Yu Xiaogang raised his head and met his eyes.
Liu Erlong smiled, and that smile was particularly moving under the candlelight, "Okay, you have been tired for a day, so go and rest first. We will talk about the college affairs tomorrow."
Having said that, how could the love-minded Liu Erlong not help Yu Xiaogang find his place?
