220 Let Me Guess
One night, the moon rose and the sun set.
Zhang Haoyue waited until noon the next day, but he still didn’t hear a sound.
‘This master… He’s not even eating?’ He suddenly had a bad feeling.
Meanwhile, Feng Xiaochuan was cursing from afar as he walked over.
!!
“What’s up with this Zhang Haoyue?” He then happened to bump into a servant who came to deliver food. “I’ll deliver this meal.”
Feng Xiaochuan didn’t listen to the servant boy’s explanation and threw over a banknote worth three hundred taels to snatch the plate of food. Then, he strode to the front of the room.
“Master, it’s already morning. Come out and have a meal,” Feng Xiaochuan shouted lazily. “If you don’t want to see that grandson Zhang Haoyue, I’ll help you chase him away!”
“Brother Feng, that’s too much.” Zhang Haoyue smiled and looked at Feng Xiaochuan.
After standing outside for an entire night, it would definitely be a lie to say that there was no fire in his stomach.
“Look at this master. He hasn’t even replied to you for the entire night. He definitely doesn’t like you.” Feng Xiaochuan chuckled, not the least bit afraid. “I’ll help you go in and take a look, in case the master has fainted from anger.”
After Feng Xiaochuan said that, he pushed open the door without a word.
Zhang Haoyue, who was beside him, did not stop him. He really did not want to wait anymore. That master didn’t move at all, which made him feel a little uneasy.
Squeak~
The door was pushed open by Feng Xiaochuan.
“Oh…”
Feng Xiaochuan stood still in the room, the smile on his face stiff.
“What’s wrong?” Zhang Haoyue stepped over the threshold and saw a black robe and a bamboo hat neatly folded on the table.
There was no one on the bed.
“Where’s Master?”
Thump thump thump …
The young man from the Twin Extreme sect also walked in quickly. He was also shocked by the scene in front of him.
“Tsk tsk…The three of us have been in the martial arts world for so many years. I’m afraid we’ve been beaten up by a little punk this time~”
After Feng Xiaochuan was stunned, his eyes were filled with smiles. In any case, he had won that rare weapon. With that master gone, the county governor’s mansion would still be the one to profit the most.
Of course, what made him even happier was…
“To be honest, in terms of financial resources, I admit defeat this time. Brother Haoyue is so generous. He can even give out 150,000 taels of silver without even blinking… Such a demeanor is worthy of being praised by the people of Lingjiang! I admire you! I really admire you!” Feng Xiaochuan said firmly.
“Indeed, Brother Haoyue has a good reputation for spending thousands of gold,” the youth from the Twin Extreme sect also teased.
“It’s just 150,000 taels. It’s nothing to the Nine Dragons sect.” Zhang Haoyue smiled. “To be able to use this 150,000 taels of silver to buy a lesson is not considered a loss.”
He was calm as if nothing had happened. “Since that so-called Grandmaster has disappeared, I won’t stay here any longer. There are still many important matters in the sect that I need to deal with.”
Zhang Haoyue cupped his fists at the two of them and bowed to many of the spectators present. From beginning to end, he was amiable.
He turned around and walked into the distance.
Feng Xiaochuan continued to size up the room. “Tsk tsk, to be able to play with people from the three major forces, this kid sure has some skills.”
However, compared to the silver needle hook that he displayed at the auction house, that master seemed to have a deeper understanding of the poison path.
He also had the means to mark that master, and it was even attached to his flesh.
But now…
He had also lost his target. Clearly, his methods had been easily erased by the other party and had even been transferred to this black robe.
He paced around the room. Suddenly, he frowned and looked at the bed. There seemed to be a dust mark.
Feng Xiaochuan grabbed the headboard and shook it. In an instant, the entire bed was torn into pieces.
Crash…
The door to the side room was also violently shaken open by Feng Xiaochuan’s jolt. Sand and soil piled up in the room with a bang.
Then, the hole under the bed was revealed.
“There’s a secret passage?!” Feng Xiaochuan exclaimed.
Whoosh!
A strong wind blew around him.
In the blink of an eye, a green-robed figure appeared. It was Zhang Haoyue who had returned.
He looked at the tunnel without any hesitation and instantly went in. The white dragon protected his body and used both his hands and feet.
Like a swimming dragon, he reached the end of the tunnel in just a dozen breaths.
Bang!
He broke the cover and jumped up from the ground. ‘The slums?’
However, at this moment, Zhang Haoyue was no longer as calm as before. His eyes were red, and his killing intent was like a tide as he looked at the crowded streets on both sides.
“Bastard!” Zhang Haoyue slammed his palm on the wall.
The entire wall that had experienced many vicissitudes of life collapsed under Zhang Haoyue’s furious attack.
150,000 taels of silver! A whole 150,000 taels of silver! He could buy two of those damaged artifacts with this money!
“Don’t let me know who you are. Otherwise, I, Zhang Haoyue, swear that I will tear you into pieces! ” Zhang Haoyue gritted his teeth.
…
...
“Brother-in-law, Brother-in-law…”
Li Buhu dashed into Qin Huai’s courtyard.
“What’s the matter?” Qin Huai raised his eyes and looked at Li Buhu, whose mouth was about to crack to the back of his head.
“Can you guess what happened when Zhang Haoyue went to Fengxing Auction House today?”
“Let me think.” Qin Huai pinched his fingers together, his expression solemn. Immediately, he opened his eyes. “I know now. Zhang Haoyue spends money like dirt, but he has achieved nothing. ”
Li Buhu was stunned. “Brother-in-law, you know how to read the heavens?!”
He looked at Qin Huai as if he had seen a ghost. “There was a bejeweled weapon grandmaster in the popular auction. Then, Zhang Haoyue spent 150,000 taels of silver to buy that power stone and presented it to the grandmaster, hoping to rope him in… Who would have thought that the master would run away after getting the power stone.”
