By noon the next day, Li Wanji could no longer stay.
Her personality was as rough as a man’s, and she acted with swift decisiveness. The matter of the Blood Shadow Wolf had already been resolved, and with her injuries mostly recovered, she naturally wanted to set off.
“Second Uncle, Second Uncle.”
Zhou An, however, was full of worry, “If you leave, what about Fierce Tiger Gate…”
Zhou You already had an idea, “Just say what I told you to say. Besides, Qingping City is in the Sixteenth Ring, and we’re only going to the Seventeenth Ring, so it’s not far.”
Zhou An was almost in tears. Was that not far?
Even if it wasn’t far, it was still three hundred li!
To take Xiao Chen, Li Wanji naturally had various ideas, “Senior, you can rest assured. As long as Xiao Chen enters the Demon Subduing Division, even if Fierce Tiger Gate wants to move against you, they will have to think twice. Unless, they are only coming for personal revenge. Moreover, they also have families, and without eliminating Xiao Chen, they would never dare to directly attack you. Unless, they want their own families to be buried with them.”
Zhou An looked at Li Wanji blankly, then at Zhou You.
Did this Guniang misunderstand something?
Shouldn’t the person to be eliminated be his Second Uncle? How did it become his daughter?
Li Wanji’s thinking was very simple and pure: if you touch my family, I will exterminate your entire clan. If you don’t care, then we’ll have a bloody fight and see who cares more.
Zhou Chen couldn’t help but feel a bit more worried, “Father, just follow the explanation Second Master taught you.”
Zhou An nodded helplessly, remembering that when they parted last night, Second Uncle had given him ten High-Grade Spirit Stones and three Six Flavor Emperor Pills.
As long as he could Breakthrough his strength again before Bao Xing’s elder brother arrived, he would at least be able to escape.
Besides, the other party was now hesitant, unsure of the exact situation of the Zhou Family.
The matter between the Zhou and Lin families had already spread like wildfire in Qingping City.
He believed the other party would definitely gather intelligence to determine Second Uncle’s situation.
Thinking of this, Zhou An’s mood immediately calmed down a lot.
“I will be back in a month.”
Zhou You waved his hand, eager to begin his Cultivation plan.
Zhou Chen followed joyfully. If it were in the past, she would never have had such courage.
But now it was different; as long as Second Master was there, she felt that even a Dragon’s Den or a Tiger’s Lair could be ventured into.
Zhou Chen stood in front of the carriage, waving to Li Wanji, “Li Guniang, let’s go.”
Li Wanji forced a smile and strode forward, feeling that taking a Fan Blood Realm and a Tuotai Realm with her, her courage was truly extraordinary.
An hour after they left, Lu Renjia of Yaoguang Sect arrived in a hurry.
Seeing the ruins of the broken gate, he couldn’t help but be stunned.
Finally, his gaze fell on the ‘Zhou Family’ plaque next to it, and he confirmed his location.
Zhou An, who was directing people, couldn’t help but look over, “Young Master, is there something?”
Lu Renjia clasped his hands, “May I ask, is this the home of Zhou Chen, Zhou Guniang?”
Zhou An surprisingly sized up the other party. His daughter hardly ever went out, so how could she know so many people? Could it be from Fierce Tiger Gate?
But that didn’t seem right; the other party couldn’t react so quickly.
Lu Renjia quickly said, “A few days ago, thanks to Zhou Guniang’s righteous action, she saved my life.”
Zhou An realized, “Oh, then you haven’t come to the wrong place. However, Xiao Chen has gone out.”
“Gone out?”
Lu Renjia was surprised, “When will she return?”
Zhou An said, “They went to the front line to kill Yao Beasts, and they just left not long ago. As for the return time, they said it would be in a month.”
Lu Renjia’s expression changed, “The front line, this, this, this…”
Zhou An was puzzled, “Young Master, is there something?”
Lu Renjia quickly said, “I came here to inform Zhou Guniang that the Sixteenth Ring is currently relatively stable. The Yao Beasts encountered before should have just broken through the defense line and leaked in.”
Zhou An naturally knew this, “Thank you, Young Master, for coming to deliver the message.”
As he spoke, another group of people arrived in a grand procession.
The leaders were none other than the three elders from Bi Shui Manor Retirement Home: Ma Shun, Li Ying, and Zhao Gun.
…………
“Second Master.”
“Hmm?”
“Why do I feel like we forgot something?”
“Did we?”
Zhou You in the carriage tilted his head. Logically, he wasn’t old, so he shouldn’t be forgetful, right?
Li Wanji smiled, “It’s normal for people to occasionally forget things. If you can’t remember, don’t think about it.”
Zhou Chen suddenly startled, “I remember! When we were at the Retirement Home, it seemed like we said we were going to discuss things at home, like expelling Yao Beasts?”
Zhou You suddenly realized. It seemed there was such a thing.
Those three old men, he didn’t know them anyway.
Big Brother did mention it, and then he just took on the matter directly.
Li Wanji chuckled, “There are no Yao Beasts, so what is there to discuss?”
Zhou You nodded, “Very reasonable.”
Zhou Chen hesitated, “Should we go back and tell Father?”
Zhou You shook his head, “It doesn’t matter. Anyway, if they come, they will definitely understand the specific situation.”
Zhou Chen said “Oh” and continued to drive the carriage.
Li Wanji looked directly at Zhou You.
Zhou You raised an eyebrow, “Something?”
Li Wanji frowned, “Shouldn’t you be driving the carriage?”
Zhou You chuckled, “Firstly, I can’t. Secondly, I am a Senior.”
Li Wanji gritted her teeth, “On the battlefield, no one cares if you are a Senior!”
Zhou Chen smiled, “Li Guniang, it’s fine, I’ll drive the carriage.”
Li Wanji was already full of anger, and hearing this, she became even more furious, “I just don’t understand, why are you so obedient to him? Is it appropriate for a man to let a girl drive the carriage?”
Zhou You hesitated, “I really can’t.”
Li Wanji angrily retorted, “Then what can you do?”
Zhou You pursed his lips, recalling every day of these past years, and finally gave an honest answer, “I can eat.”
But such a sincere answer, to Li Wanji, was a deliberate attempt to disgust her.
Zhou You’s expression was sincere, radiating the words ‘honest’ from head to toe.
He was telling the truth.
He went up the mountain at nine years old and came down at one hundred and eight years old.
Other than drawing his sword, he truly had been eating the entire time.
Li Wanji’s Right Hand suddenly grabbed out, “Others may spoil you, but I won’t!”
Her Right Hand suddenly paused, and a look of shock appeared on her face.
Her Right Hand, which was grabbing at the other party’s neck, was somehow clamped by the other party’s wrist, and those two fingers were like tiger pliers, clamping her bones as if they were about to shatter.
Zhou You’s tone was indifferent, “Don’t fight with me.”
Fear surged in Li Wanji’s heart. There was no killing intent emanating from the other party, but there was an inexplicable Qi that made her unable to breathe.
In a trance, she felt that the person in front of her was no longer human.
But a killing sword ready to be unsheathed at any moment!
