Since Ji Hao had made a move, there would naturally be no casualties.
Zhou You thought so and continued to eat his own food.
The Old Dog found it amusing, "You say that Xue Meiniang is chasing Yao Si so closely, what is she after? If there really were ancient treasures, would he carry them on him? It couldn't be that he dug up her family's ancestral grave, could it?"
He laughed and laughed, then stopped laughing.
Because...
It wasn't funny anymore.
If that were truly the case, Yao Si and they were together, and by extension, they could be labeled as Yao Si's criminal gang.
Xue Meiniang was a person of the Dynasty, and she could completely report the matter, then issue a warrant.
At that time, both the Demon Subduing Division and the Exorcist Bureau would take action upon seeing it.
This didn't even include other forces of the Hua Xia Dynasty.
"This is bad."
The Old Dog slapped his thigh, "Young Master, we must distance ourselves from Yao Si. Even if someone asks, we can only say we didn't know he was a tomb raider."
Zhou You glanced at the Old Dog, "I knew, that's why I brought him along, preparing for an adventure."
The Old Dog said anxiously, "You could lie!"
Zhou You frowned, "Are you teaching me to lie? I never lie."
The Old Dog was dumbfounded, "But... but..."
As they spoke, Xiao Jing and the others found them.
"They're... they're fighting!"
Zhou Xian gasped, "Xue Meiniang said, she said Yao Si dug up her family's ancestral grave."
Zhou You let out an "Oh," his expression unchanged.
Zhou Xian quickly said, "Second Master, aren't you going to do something?"
"What am I going to do?"
Zhou You glanced in the direction Xue Meiniang had left, "I can't even fly, where am I going to manage?"
Lu Renjia hesitated, "Second Master, if something goes wrong, someone might die."
Zhou You shrugged, "Then you guys go manage it."
Lu Renjia chuckled dryly, "We don't have that ability."
Ou Ye also said, "But this matter, we simply can't get involved. After all, he dug up someone's ancestral grave."
Zhou You thought for a moment, "That's very reasonable, isn't it? He's a tomb raider, whose grave wouldn't he dig? Do you believe that if I die before him, he'll even dig up my grave?"
Everyone fell silent, somehow feeling it was quite reasonable?
Tomb raiders digging graves, that's their profession.
Ultimately, Yao Si was just a dedicated professional, wasn't he?
"Don't think about such useless things."
Zhou You said, "I'm really sleepy; let's find a place to sleep."
Rejecting internal friction, starting with me.
Besides, the matter here was resolved, so it was time to move to another place.
He had already paid for the disaster relief, so there was nothing to linger for.
As for Ou Ye's Little Rabbit, he had no desire to meet her.
After leaving the town, Ou Ye stopped and cupped his hands towards Zhou You, "Young Master Zhou, I need to stay a bit longer."
Zhou You nodded, "Understood, you want to accompany your Little Rabbit."
Ou Ye smiled, "Thank you for your understanding. If you ever need anything in the future, feel free to find me."
Zhou You found it amusing, "Who would be able to find you?"
Ou Ye laughed loudly, "We will meet again; I look forward to our next encounter."
He was known as the 'Thousand Faces,' and if he wanted to hide himself, he was truly difficult to find.
However, he was accustomed to traveling alone and temporarily had no plans to join any group.
Zhou You waved his hand, "Then take care of yourself."
The Old Dog whispered, "Young Master, letting him leave is like releasing a tiger back into the mountains."
He thought for a moment, then corrected himself, "It's like releasing a fox back into the mountains."
Ou Ye was extremely cunning; he would sell out swindlers without batting an eye. How could such a person not be terrifying?
Zhou You smiled, "Freedom."
He spoke two words, and the Old Dog understood.
Everyone loved freedom; some things should not be forced.
Ou Ye watched the group leave, feeling a sense of loss.
Overall, Zhou You gave off a good impression, even a very good one.
This person was simply more casual, occasionally slow to react, but when it came to serious matters, he was not careless at all.
After leaving Hongshan Town by only five li, Zhou You's eyelids were already starting to droop.
Eat well, drink well, and then sleep.
He had eaten and drunk very well today; all that was left was to sleep.
Zhou Xian, being quick-witted, immediately made a bed for Zhou You out of tree branches, and Zhou You fell asleep without another word.
At this scene, everyone was somewhat silent.
Zhou You's drowsiness was also reasonable; after absorbing so much spiritual power from the Ju Ling Fish, plus the previous Flood Dragon demon core, and then being tormented by Xue Meiniang, it would be fake not to be sleepy.
...
Boom!
About ten li away from Zhou You and the others.
Yao Si coughed up a mouthful of blood and fell onto the hard dirt, his eyes filled with terror, "I was wrong, I was really wrong. I'll fix your ancestral grave, and apologize, will that be enough?"
He was quite old, and now he was crying like a teary mess.
At the same time, he secretly resented, if he were at his peak, why would he be so passive?
What bad luck!
It was all Zhou Quan from the Zhou Family's fault; if he hadn't instigated him, he wouldn't have gone to kill his second uncle.
If he hadn't killed his second uncle, he wouldn't have been beaten by Ji Hao like a grandson.
One trap after another, screwing him over.
What now?
Had fate woken up just to torment him?
Xue Meiniang's face was grim, her eyes filled with killing intent, "You dug up my ancestral grave; I won't rest until I kill you!"
Yao Si trembled, "I've reformed myself; as the saying goes, a prodigal son's return is worth more than gold."
"I don't care what you're worth!"
Xue Meiniang pulled out a short sword from her waist, "Today I'll dissect you alive!"
Thud!
Just as Xue Meiniang made her move, Ji Hao landed heavily between the two of them.
Xue Meiniang narrowed her eyes, "You want to protect him?"
"No."
Ji Hao shook his head, "I need him to take me on an adventure."
"Adventure?"
Xue Meiniang raised an eyebrow.
Ji Hao nodded, "I never lie; it is an adventure."
Xue Meiniang said coldly, "What if I insist on killing him?"
Ji Hao thought for a moment, "Then wait until after our adventure to kill him; at that time, I won't care about him anymore."
Yao Si's face turned ugly; after building up so much favorability, he was still going to die?
Xue Meiniang activated her spiritual power, "Apologies, but I must kill him today."
"Impossible."
Ji Hao raised an eyebrow, "Though you, a Za Yu, are very beautiful, I never go easy on women."
"Then try it!"
Xue Meiniang was furious; she felt the other party was simply unreasonable.
He actually wanted to protect a heinous tomb raider!
Suddenly, a gust of wind rose from the ground, swirling dust and withered leaves, filling the sky.
Ji Hao revealed his black saber, unyielding. "In that case, prepare to die!"
Suddenly, a strong gust of wind struck Ji Hao.
Ji Hao quickly swung his saber to block, but was forcefully pushed back.
As a colorful figure descended, Ji Hao's expression changed dramatically.
Xue Meiniang exclaimed in surprise, "Fairy Yun Ni!"
A major figure, a top-tier major figure!
Ji Hao's face instantly twisted, and he roared, "You old woman, are you ever going to be done with this? Did I kill your whole family, or dig up your ancestral grave? Why are you still clinging to me?!"
