NOVEL WEB Chapter 51
Gu Cheng walked out of the gate of Qianhu Suo.
He took two steps and felt a strange gaze behind him, like a thorn in his back, silently examining him.
He frowned slightly, turned around, and happened to meet a pair of eyes like autumn water.
"Lord Lin, you are not dumb, just ask if you have any questions."
"..."
Lin Qingyan hesitated for a moment after hearing this, and then asked quietly:
"I heard from others that you were fooling around with the wife of the Song family that night, and happened to be caught by the flower thief."
"You were disturbed and shot the fox demon to death in anger?"
"???"
Gu Cheng's face was immediately black.
"Where did you hear this rumor from?"
"Everyone in the government office says so..."
Lin Qingyan raised her eyes and looked at the young man. There was no impurity in her clear eyes, only a hint of curiosity.
"So... were you fooling around at that time?"
"No!"
Gu Cheng denied it flatly, and glanced at Lin Qingyan in a strange way.
This cold and beautiful lady usually looks calm and cool, why does she look a little innocent today?
Why does she believe all the outrageous rumors?
"I am innocent with that Madam Song, and the rumors you heard before are pure nonsense!"
"Really..."
A trace of suspicion flashed across Lin Qingyan's beautiful face.
She had heard a lot about Gu Cheng's romantic affairs of "hooking up little beauties and breaking into widows' houses at night".
But combined with his recent outstanding performance.
Could it be that all the ridiculous things Gu Cheng did before were just hiding his strength and playing dumb?
"Then why did you suddenly become so powerful?"
Lin Qingyan looked curious.
"Even when Uncle Gu was alive, he didn't have such a strong power as you, right?"
"Well... I naturally had another adventure."
Gu Cheng said casually, turned around and walked forward.
"Like you, I heard from the administrator of the armory that you also have another master, right? I am almost the same as you..."
"..."
Hearing Gu Cheng mention her "master".
Lin Qingyan's eyes flashed with a strangeness, and she consciously ended the topic and followed him.
The two walked quickly along the bluestone path, one in front and one behind.
Just as they were about to cross the moon gate of the inner courtyard.
A young man in a silver-white official uniform came over with four confidants.
Just happened to face Gu and Lin.
The young man had a very young face, exuding a faint noble aura, and at first glance he was a rich young man of extraordinary origin.
Gu Cheng looked up and found that the other person looked very similar to the eldest son of the Zheng family who was deliberately looking for trouble.
Obviously, the identity of the person who came should be the second son of the Zheng family - Zheng Kun.
Zheng Kun was slightly startled to see that the two of them were actually mixed together.
A trace of imperceptible anger flashed in his eyes, but he returned to normal in an instant and greeted with a smile:
"You are General Gu, right? I heard that you killed a fox demon that broke through the mortal realm yesterday? That's amazing!
It is a blessing for these 400,000 civilians to have a master like you in Changle County!"
Zheng Kun started with a string of rainbow farts, praising Gu Cheng severely.
Then he changed the subject and mentioned his brother Zheng Qian.
"Oh... I'm really sorry. My brother has always been eccentric and has caused trouble to you, Mr. Gu.
As a younger brother, I would like to apologize to you on behalf of my brother..."
After saying that, the second son of the Zheng family bowed to Gu Cheng with an apologetic look on his face, as if he was sincerely admitting his mistake.
Although Gu Cheng felt that the other party's behavior was a bit hypocritical.
But as the saying goes, you should not hit a smiling person.
He nodded slightly, which was considered to be accepting the other party's apology.
Zheng Kun turned to look at Lin Qingyan, with a flattering face:
"Qingyan, I went to Tianshui City this time and bought several jars of fine wine from Zuixianlou.
If you are interested, why not come to my house to taste it?"
"..."
Lin Qingyan shook her head silently, and her body moved half a step towards Gu Cheng.
She has always been approachable, but she is surprisingly cold to the second son of the Zheng family.
Seeing this, Zheng Kun's expression froze for a moment, but soon returned to normal.
Then he nodded to the two of them, and left with four confidants.
After the second son of the Zheng family walked away.
Lin Qingyan quietly approached Gu Cheng and whispered:
"Gu Cheng, you have to be careful. With Zheng Kun's petty character, he will definitely not let it go."
"Well, I know." Gu Cheng nodded slightly.
As the saying goes, "A dog that bites doesn't bark."
If this Zheng Kun is like a low-class anti-If he is like a sect, and speaks wildly as soon as he meets someone, then he will most likely not take any actual action.
But he just boasted and apologized awkwardly, and it was obvious that he was secretly planning something behind the scenes.
"In that case, after returning from this mission, find an opportunity to kill Zheng Kun."
Gu Cheng's eyes were cold.
Coincidentally, with the evil skill of "Blood Knife Sutra", he could just open a vest as a remnant of the Blood Knife Sect.
It was perfect to use this identity to do such a shameful thing.
-----------------
The gate of the Hundred Households Office was closed.
Click——
With a crisp sound, an exquisite porcelain cup was shattered in an instant, becoming an innocent victim of its owner's emotional catharsis.
"You stinky bitch! I've been pursuing you for two years, but you've always ignored me!"
"As soon as that pretty boy named Gu showed up, you threw yourself at him, didn't you?"
Zheng Kun was so angry that his face turned pale. Thinking back to the couple standing together just now, he was even more furious.
He smashed everything on the table.
When the second son of the Zheng family calmed down a little, he sat on the chair as silent as a clay statue.
In the room, a mysterious man in black slowly spoke:
"Second Young Master, the master has already issued an order.
That Captain Lin killed two fox demons, which had a great impact on his plan.
To avoid any more accidents, that woman must die!"
"Die! Die! It's better if they all die!"
Zheng Kun looked hysterical, but then he looked suspicious and asked back:
"That bitch is very powerful and full of mysteries. I'm afraid that ordinary warriors in the Broken Ordinary Realm will not be her opponent?"
"You don't have to worry about this. The master has used his connections to invite a master from the [Evil King Pavilion]!"
The mysterious man in black explained softly:
"It is said that... he is a powerful spiritual cultivator who can control several demon servants at the same time and fight together."
"Under his rogue tactics of outnumbering, even a warrior at the peak of the mortal realm will never be his opponent!"
"Oh? Is he a master from the Evil King Pavilion?"
Zheng Kun was immediately refreshed when he heard this and hurriedly stood up from his chair.
Although he didn't know about spiritual cultivators, he didn't know what demon servants were.
But he had heard a little about the Evil King Pavilion, a killer organization that was quite famous in the entire Yunzhou.
It is said that the members of the Evil King Pavilion are all ruthless and have strange means.
It is naturally a sure thing to have such professionals to take action!
"Hmph! Killing one is killing, killing two is also killing!
Since he's here, let's just give him a little more reward and let him get rid of that pretty boy named Gu as well..."
Zheng Kun paced back and forth in the room, and suddenly turned his head and asked:
"By the way, when will the master of the Evil King Pavilion arrive?"
"Within ten days."
"Okay! Then I'll wait another ten days."
The second young master of the Zheng family nodded, and his dark eyes flashed with resentment from the bottom of his heart.
"Ten days later, that pair of dogs and bitches will die!"
