As he spoke, Chu Qinghe slowly stood up and casually said to the old man smoking a pipe in the corner, "Old man, you shouldn't be smoking a pipe at your age. Let this old gentleman smoke it instead!"
Upon hearing Chu Qinghe's words, a strange light flashed in the eyes of the old man in the corner.
Then, watching Chu Qinghe leave with several women carrying a hundred-tael silver note, the fortune teller couldn't help but clutch his chest.
My heart aches so much I can hardly breathe.
It was as if what was lost was not just a hundred taels of silver, but the whole world.
After Chu Qinghe and his group left, the old man who had been sitting in the corner smoking his pipe chuckled and said, "An interesting young man."
Then, looking at the fortune teller who was clutching his chest and looking pained, the old man holding a pipe shook his head and said, "The dignified Old Man of Heavenly Secrets has been tricked by a young man today. It seems that I should consider whether to move your name from the first place on my weapon ranking list."
If Chu Qinghe and Dongfang Bubai were here at this moment, upon hearing the old man's words, they would immediately be able to identify the identities of these two people.
It was none other than Bai Xiaosheng, the current head of the Bai Xiaoge Pavilion, a name that inspired countless people in the martial arts world to vie for a place on various lists.
And also the Grandmaster-level expert in the late stage, who is equally famous on both the Weapon Ranking and the Grandmaster Ranking under Bai Xiaosheng, Tianji Laoren, Sun Baifa.
Hearing the voice behind him, the old man who had just read Chu Qinghe's fortune, Sun Baifa, said irritably, "Then you'd better move out as soon as possible. It would be best to remove my name from those two lists, so that I, an old man, don't have to live in fear every day, afraid that someone will come knocking on my door one day."
Bai Xiaosheng shook his head and said, "You know, the older you get, the less courageous you become. With your current listless appearance, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to stabilize your Celestial Realm."
Sun Baifa sneered, "You talk as if you've entered the Celestial Realm. You're just a mid-stage Grandmaster. How dare you criticize me like that?"
Then, Sun Bai changed the subject, saying, "What? From what you just said, it sounds like you've taken a liking to that rascal who plays tricks on people and want to recruit him?"
Hearing Sun Baifa's words, Bai Xiaosheng nodded gently.
"That's true, but unfortunately, such a person is not suited to be used by others."
Before Sun Baifa could respond, Bai Xiaosheng explained, "The two people standing next to that young man were Dongfang Bubai, the leader of the Sun Moon Sect, and Yaoyue, the Grand Master of the Yihua Palace."
Upon hearing this, Sun Baifa was immediately startled.
"Those two on the Hundred Flowers Ranking and the Grandmaster Ranking?"
Bai Xiaosheng nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
Upon receiving confirmation from Bai Xiaosheng, Sun Baifa couldn't help but gasp in shock.
"Good heavens, it's actually Dongfang Bubai and Yaoyue?"
Who are Dongfang Bubai and Yaoyue? There are probably few people in the martial arts world who don't know.
And now, these two high-ranking and powerful geniuses have appeared at the same time and are accompanying a man.
Who wouldn't be shocked by this news?
However, thinking of Chu Qinghe's appearance, Sun Baifa couldn't help but scoff: "Tch, being good-looking is quite an advantage."
Then, Sun Baifa continued, "However, the internal energy fluctuations in that little rascal's body are only at the second-rate perfection level. With your methods, it shouldn't be difficult to get him into the Azure Dragon Society!"
Bai Xiaosheng shook his head and said, "The fact that he could tell at a glance that it was my first time smoking this pipe shows that the young master is very observant. And his demeanor was also evident in his conversation with you. He is clearly only at the second-rate perfection level, yet he was able to outwit you, you old mudfish."
"Judging from the way Dongfang Bubai and Yaoyue looked at that young master earlier, they had already developed feelings for each other. To be able to have two such proud and arrogant people as Dongfang Bubai and Yaoyue by his side at the same time, this young master is no ordinary person."
After a pause, Bai Xiaosheng continued, "Moreover, I don't believe you didn't smell the blood on them."
Sun Bai sighed and said, "It's only because I smelled it that I didn't try to extort more money from you!"
Hearing Sun Baifa's words, Bai Xiaosheng couldn't help but chuckle and said, "You're still as cunning and shrewd as ever, always looking out for someone who doesn't know them."
After jokingly scolding Sun Baifa, Bai Xiaosheng looked back in the direction where Chu Qinghe and the others had just left, and said with interest, "I didn't expect to run into such an interesting young man. He does resemble someone quite a bit."
As if sensing the hidden meaning in Bai Xiaosheng's words, Sun Baifa asked with a slightly surprised tone, "You don't mean someone like the big dragon leader in your Azure Dragon Society, do you?"
However, Bai Xiaosheng did not respond to Sun Baifa's question. Instead, he changed the subject and asked, "But is what you said about bringing good fortune to one's wife true or false?"
Sun Baifa said slowly, "If I were truly confident, do you think I would only accept one tael of silver from him?"
Finally, Sun Baifa muttered, "But that little rascal's luck in bringing good fortune to his wife is really a bit abnormal, it's almost eerie."
Listening to what Sun Baifa said, Bai Xiaosheng shook his head slightly, clearly not believing what Sun Baifa was saying.
Then he said, "Have you had enough fun? You can change back into your clothes now! This tobacco is too strong, it burns my throat, I can't stand it."
However, in response to Bai Xiaosheng's words, Sun Baifa snatched the pipe from Bai Xiaosheng's hand and said, "This is top-quality Yunshui tobacco. I didn't even blame you for wasting such a precious resource, but you're complaining about it."
After taking a few puffs of his pipe, Sun Baifa, whose expression had calmed down, suddenly spoke up: "It's rare to see you speak so highly of a junior."
Bai Xiaosheng smiled and said, "I'm just stating the facts."
Noticing the thoughtful look on Bai Xiaosheng's face, Sun Baifa let out a soft "Eh?" and said, "Judging from your expression, you're not thinking of doing something, are you?"
