Chapter 116 Baiyue Zhuo Family
Xiao Tianci was planning a trip these two days. He considered that the number of people going to attend the martial arts conference this time was less or more. In addition to himself, guarding Dian Wei was definitely indispensable. At that time, select a few masters from the Demon God Guard. As for other generals, they have something to do now, so they don’t have time to hang out with Xiao Tianci.
Xiao Tianci's trip was scheduled to be in the middle of this month, and the martial arts conference was held at the end of this month. He planned to travel all the way, and it was estimated that the time to reach the Divine Sword Sect would be just right.
Baiyue City, Xingfeng Prefecture, Shangrao Prefecture, Tianfeng Kingdom. This city is the border city of Tianfeng Kingdom, close to Shuozhou of the Ming Empire. Because it is a border city, the business and trade in this city is extremely developed. Many merchants from the two countries come and go here every day, which directly leads to the high prosperity of this city. Various shops in the city are quite frequent, and all kinds of people gather here.
In the east of Baiyue City, there is a residential building with an extremely wide area, including pavilions, pavilions, small bridges and flowing water... All of which show the surplus and power of the owner of this manor.
At this moment, in the martial arts performance venue of the manor, the owner of the manor was looking at the two young men fighting each other with a smile on the court, nodding from time to time, as if he was very satisfied with the two men on the court.
Next to the owner of this manor, there was a beautiful girl with 28 years old, long hair and shoulders, and phoenix eyebrows and white teeth. The little beauty was now angry with her father, and she looked at the two people fighting on the field with bright big eyes, feeling indescribable hatred.
"Yiyi, how about it? Your brother is a good friend? You have a first-class and top-notch skills at a young age. What's even more rare is that this person is very good-looking, polite, and does not have the arrogance of other young talents." The owner of the manor seemed to have not seen the dissatisfaction on the girl's face and said with a smile. He is one of the top big men in Baiyue City, a third-rate family named Baiyue Zhuo family. He has innate mid-stage strength and is known as the Iron Hand Zhuo Sanwang.
"Father, okay, don't think I don't know what you think. I just want my daughter to marry this barbarian. I don't know what good about this person. Since he came to our house, you and your brother have completely changed their personalities. They have wanted to match us all day long. Father, have you ever understood the feeling of being a daughter? I don't like this person at all, and I even hate him very much. Please don't force me anymore, okay, father?" The beautiful girl looked at Zhuo Sanwang with a grievance on her face, her eyes full of helplessness and sorrow.
Zhuo Sanwang looked at his beloved little daughter, and looked at her aggrieved expression. A hint of unbearableness flashed in his heart. However, he quickly suppressed this unbearableness and said with a serious expression: "Yiyi, you must also understand your father. The ten-year martial arts conference is about to be held. This conference is the opportunity of our Zhuo family. For this opportunity, I have been waiting for this opportunity. If I cannot be promoted from a third-rate family to a second-rate family, my father will be really ashamed of his ancestors. I know Yiyi, you don't like this Mr. Hu, but my father has no choice. If you rely solely on your brother this time, it will be difficult to break through the siege at the martial arts conference.
And with this Mr. Hu, it’s different. After all, he is a top-notch master. If he is willing to help our Zhuo family, then our Zhuo family will be very promising to be promoted to a second-rate family this time. So in the past few days, my father and your brother will entertain Mr. Hu so enthusiastically." When he said this, Mr. Zhuo San stopped, glanced at his daughter, a trace of gloomyness flashed across his face, and continued: "It’s a pity that Mr. Hu has been unwilling to agree. My father could see that he likes you and wants to marry you, so he is vague and unwilling to express his opinion. So, for our Zhuo family and for the hope of our ancestors and generations, my father begged you to agree, okay?"
"Father..." Zhuo Yiyi wanted to say something else, but she saw that the two people fighting in the field had already decided to win and lose. Her brother Zhuo Yun was defeated by the young master Hu by a move.
"Brother Hu, his skills are still so good, I'm not as good as me." Zhuo Yun climbed up from the ground, patted the dust on his body, and said with a smile at Mr. Hu.
However, Mr. Hu ignored him because he had already seen Zhuo Yiyi standing on the sidelines. The full name of Mr. Hu was Hu Feng. He was once the eldest master of a first- and second-rate sect. Unfortunately, this second-rate sect was eliminated overnight because of offending powerful forces. The whole family ran out and survived. Because the enemy was too powerful, Mr. Hu also destroyed his revenge and just lived a day. Later, he met Mr. Zhuo who was out and saved his life. He was immediately attracted by Mr. Zhuo as his confidant. This time, he was asked to help with boxing because of the once-ten-year martial arts conference. After the Master Hu came to Zhuo's family to see Zhuo's eldest daughter Zhuo Yiyi, he was shocked and immediately launched various offensives to pursue Miss Zhuo, and even revealed his intention to marry Miss Zhuo as his wife.
However, Zhuo Yiyi, who is born proud, looks down on this person. If you don’t say anything about judging people by appearance, Hu Feng is already pretty, with a triangular eyes and a pockmarked face. I guess if you don’t have an ordinary person, no girl will be more likely to like him.
After seeing Zhuo Yiyi being on the sidelines, Hu Feng's face was filled with a smile, completely ignoring Zhuo Yun who was knocked to the ground by him. He shook his long hair and looked like he thought he was handsome and greeted Zhuo Yiyi with a smile.
"Haha, Sister Zhuo, how about it? I'm good at it, right?" Hu Feng walked to Zhuo Yiyi, and his eyes were full of passion and lust.
"Hmph!" Zhuo Yiyi snorted, glanced at him and walked directly past him, walked to Zhuo Yun, and said carelessly: "Brother, are you okay? Are you injured?"
"It's okay, Brother Hu is already showing mercy." Zhuo Yun grinned and kept rubbing his shoulders with his hands. This guy was holding on. It seemed that Hu Feng had hurt him very seriously just now.
"I said it's okay, look at your hands, they are so swollen." Zhuo Yiyi turned around and glared at Hu Feng, shouting in dissatisfaction.
Hu Feng was a little embarrassed. He didn't expect that this little girl would be so disrespectful to him. However, the Zhuo Sanwang was a mature man. Seeing Hu Feng's face look a little ugly, he smiled and said, "The nephew is really smart. If there is a nephew helping him this time, it will be easy for my Zhuo family to be promoted to a second-rate family."
"Uncle Zhuo is polite. Although my nephew has some strength, he is also a master at this martial arts conference. I am afraid that I can't let my uncle down." Hu Feng's words were hidden in the cotton, and he neither expressed his willingness to help or refused clearly.
"Little Fox." Zhuo Sanwang cursed in his heart, but with a smile on his face, "You have to be polite. You must know that this conference is held in our Ming Empire, which has a geographical advantage. After all, the continent is so big, and there are many sects and families on the mainland. Of course, it is impossible for all sects and families in the mainland to participate in each martial arts conference. Those sects that think they have no hope of upgrading will definitely not send people. In addition, except for those top and first-class sects, most of the other second- and third-rate sects, most of them will not come much.
Just like the one we are going to participate in this session, because it is held in the Ming Empire, it is estimated that at most the second and third-rate sects and families under the Ming Empire and its extremely affiliated kingdom will participate. There should not be many other empires." When he said this, King Zhuo San paused and looked at Hu Feng with confidence and continued: "So you don't have to worry about the second and third-rate sects in the Ming Empire who have the strength to advance, I almost know that with the strength of the nephew, as long as you don't meet the top one or two third-rate families, everything else will be as easy as you can."
"After that being said, uncle and nephew are not justified and have weak hearts." Hu Feng glanced at Zhuo Yiyi on the field and said in a weird tone.
The smart King Zhuo San could not understand his words, and his face was tight. In fact, to be honest, as Hu Feng looked, he, of course, was unwilling to marry his precious daughter to him. However, for the sake of the family and the hope of the ancestors, he had to feel aggrieved Yiyi. Thinking of the King Zhuo's heart immediately hardened, he raised his head and shouted at Zhuo Yiyi, "Yiyi, come here."
"What's the matter?" Zhuo Yiyi walked over and asked with a cold face.
"Haha, Yiyi, the weather is very good today. Nephew Hu has been to our Baiyue City for several days and has not yet gone out to visit. Why don't you take him to go shopping later?" Zhuo Sanwang said with a smile.
"Yes, sister Yiyi, I have heard that the Baiyue City is as prosperous as a brocade. It was just famous before. Now when you are in this city, you, the landlord, have to accompany me to take a walk." Hu Feng rubbed his hands with a smile on his face, and took two steps forward to pull Zhuo Yiyi's hands.
Zhuo Yiyi let out lightly and avoided the man's Green Mountain Claws. A sudden burst of Kurabaya on her pretty face, "Father, I'm tired, I want to accompany you, I'll go back to my room to rest first."
"Random!" Zhuo Sanwang was angry and slapped Zhuo Yiyi's face directly. With a crisp sound, a red palm print suddenly appeared on Zhuo Yiyi's white right face. Zhuo Yiyi covered her right face and looked at Zhuo Sanwang with an incredible look. Tears began to roll in her eyes, and she sobbed in a very aggrieved voice: "Father, you hit me? Since your mother passed away, you have hit me for the first time because of this outsider surnamed Hu? Do you want to sell your daughter regardless of her daughter's feelings?"
Zhuo Sanwang, who slapped his daughter, immediately felt a hint of regret in his heart, but now he heard Zhuo Yiyi say this, and the anger he had just suppressed burst out again. He raised his finger and pointed at Zhuo Yiyi and shouted, "You are my daughter and a member of the Zhuo family. For the Zhuo family, you should endure no matter how much grievance or unwilling you are. Besides, what's wrong with Mr. Hu? He has outstanding character and skill. I think he is more than enough to match you."
"No, I won't marry him. If I want to marry you, I won't marry him even if I die." All the grievances and pain suddenly erupted. Zhuo Yiyi yelled at Zhuo Sanwang and Hu Feng twice, then stomped her feet, turned around and rushed out.
(I woke up after drinking, and my headache was sore. Today is the Dragon Boat Festival. I wish you all friends a happy Dragon Boat Festival!)
