In terms of appearance, of all the people Luo Jiujiang had ever met, only Han Qianling could rival him in beauty. However, Han Qianling's temperament was rather aloof, even icy, as if he were detached from the world, completely different from this man's leisurely and smiling demeanor.
The first impression this person left on others was that of elegance, like the gentle humming of the evening breeze through the quiet bamboo forest.
"Mr. Gongyi." You Su saluted.
Luo Jiujiang also followed suit and bowed.
Mr. Gongyi's eyes were full of smiles. He first asked You Su about his recent situation, then turned his gaze to Luo Jiujiang and asked in a gentle voice, "The method you used to kill the fish just now, was it killing with sound?"
There is nothing wrong with admitting this, Luo Jiujiang nodded in agreement.
"Part of the technique you just used was my own creation. I knew it the moment I heard it," Mr. Gongyi explained with a smile before asking, "I only taught this technique to one person originally. I didn't expect to see you using it today. Child, who taught you the art of 'Sound Killing'?"
Luo Jiujiang hesitated for a moment, unsure whether to say it or not.
Just as he was silent, a speedboat approached from a short distance. At the bow stood a Xuanzhu disciple in a green robe, the pattern of his clothing revealing the Yaofeng style. In a matter of seconds, the speedboat stopped right in front of Luo Jiujiang, followed by several other boats, large and small. Their intentions were unclear, but judging by the way they were looking at Luo Jiujiang, they looked like they were just there to watch the fun.
The Yao Peak disciple quickly took out a letter of invitation and handed it to Luo Jiujiang: "Tomorrow at noon, at the top of Cuiwei Peak, our Yin Peak Master invites you."
Luo Jiujiang: "Eh? This is a bit sudden. I wonder what Master Yin Feng means by this?"
The disciple, with thick eyebrows and large eyes, exuded a righteous aura. Upon hearing this, his eyebrows arched in disbelief. "Are you playing dumb? Isn't this the only reason our Peak Master has been inviting us to battle for all these years?"
Luo Jiujiang asked tentatively: "...Because I took his flowers?" But that frost flower tree was given to me by your Lord Yin Feng.
The disciple flew into a rage: "You are truly shameless! How dare you say that!"
Luo Jiujiang: "Wait..." Something seems wrong...
The disciple, however, had already lost his patience and turned the boat around, leaving Luo Jiujiang to be scrutinized by the gazes of the passengers who had followed him. Occasionally, on the breeze, a few words drifted by, such as, "That's Luo..." or "Yeah... He's... so brave..."
Luo Jiujiang: “…” Something is definitely wrong!
That's not all. After hearing this, Mr. Gongyi, who was standing in front of him, suddenly thought about something and said in a tone of sudden enlightenment, "So that's how it is. My friend is a playboy by nature. He must have taught the Yin-Killing technique to some beautiful woman, and it's been passed down through the family. You're so handsome and playful at such a young age. You must have learned the Yin-Killing technique from a lover during your passionate intimacy with a beautiful woman."
This Mr. Gongyi looks like a handsome man, but why does he use such erotic words?
As soon as these words were spoken, Luo Jiujiang suddenly felt that the gazes from the nearby ships on him had increased several times and were several times stronger, almost as if they were looking through him.
Luo Jiujiang: “…”
No! He's not! He didn't! This is so unfair!
