C8 Reunion

Shen Xing turned around, "You should go back to your room." He drove Shen Kai away afraid that he wouldn't be able to control his laughter.

Shen Kai inexplicably left Shen Xing's room. His father rarely punished him, but he should not know that when he fought with others, he did not even scold them. This time, Shen Kai was truly at a loss.

It was already late in the night, so Binzhou City had fallen into silence.

The morning breeze blew past the haughty Winter Plum, the biting cold wind had awoken the entire Binzhou City. The busiest day of the year had already come, and people had already gathered at the biggest street in the city. This street was where the Escort Great Assembly was held.

Shen Kai had already followed the rest of the Taixing Escort Office s early in the morning and arrived at the venue. Because the examination would not start until noon, Shen Kai was once again dragged around by Wang Zhengyu.

"Xiao Kai, the examination is about to start. Let's go pick a weapon."

"The Wang Clan is famous for their fist techniques. It seems that they are not good at using weapons. If we randomly use weapons, not only will we not be able to defeat the enemy, it will even become a burden." Shen Kai said.

"Hehe, you might not know this, but last year I followed father on a journey and met a good friend of father. That uncle saw that I was talented and talented, so he loved me and decided to take me in as a disciple, but I was unwilling, because he begged me to let him practice the sword arts with him, saying that it was an absolute art and only I, the young master, could bring it to the fore. I saw that he was old and that he had the traditional virtue of adoring and cherishing children …" When Wang Zhengyu turned back after boasting, he realized that Shen Kai had already walked far away.

In the general assembly of the Escort, most of the participants were from the Escort, but there were also many martial artists from various sects. This was a gathering of the Escort Realm s, and these Escort s had travelled all the way to many different places, so the treasures in their hands were naturally quite rare. Therefore, the Escort's Great Assembly was not only a gathering of the Escort, it was also a gathering of treasures.

"Quick, come and look! A high quality weapon can cut one's hair and cut through iron like mud." Sellers like this could be heard all over the place.

"Xiao Kai, quickly look, that sword is so sharp." Wang Zhengyu excitedly pointed to a sword on a black cloth as he spoke. A sloppily dressed man wearing a straw hat sat on the ground with his hands folded across his chest and leaned on the stairs. Shen Kai looked over, only to see the silver light emitting from the sword, the sword had turned cold, and he thought to himself, This is a good sword.

"Master, how much are you selling this sword for?" Wang Zhengyu asked.

"Kid, you can't afford my sword." That person lazily lifted his eyelids. When he saw that it was a pair of teenagers, he lost his interest and casually said.

"Hey, you're so weird. How do you know I can't afford it without offering a price?"

"50 taels. If you want money, then take it. If not, then leave." Seeing that Wang Zhengyu still wanted to pester him, he did not want to beat around the bush, so he straightforwardly bid, wanting Wang Zhengyu to leave.

"Your sword is made of gold. Fifty silver? "Why don't you just go steal it." Fifty silver! It was directly equivalent to the Tong Xing Escort Office's one month's worth of net income. A single Escort was worth two taels of silver a month, one tael of silver was equivalent to ten taels of silver, and it was worth fifty taels! That would require a one-flag Escort to work diligently for twenty years to be able to afford it! Not to mention asking Wang Zhengyu to spend fifty silver to buy a sword, just taking out a zero made him feel troubled.

"If you can't afford it, then leave. There's no need to say anything more." That person said lazily.

Wang Zhengyu still wanted to say a few more words, but Shen Kai pulled Wang Zhengyu and walked away.

"Xiao Kai, why are you pulling me?"

"Can you afford that sword?" Shen Kai asked.

Wang Zhengyu was speechless.

"Forget it, that person isn't here to sell swords at all." Shen Kai said again.

"Oh? What do you mean? "

"Look, he's dressed sloppily, with dirty hair and dirty face. As for that sword, it is as fresh as new, and even the sword sheath is extremely well maintained. A person who does not care about appearance, yet is able to keep a sword so well maintained; it can be seen that it is a person who loves swords. " Shen Kai had been observing the man for many years, so it was not difficult for him to tell what was happening. Wang Zhengyu could do the same, but his gaze was always on the sword and he did not pay any attention to the man.

"Since she is a person who loves swords, why does she still need to sell that sword?" Wang Zhengyu asked in confusion.

"Believe me, he won't buy this sword." Shen Kai said with a smile, and then, walked forward by himself.

"Ouch." Shen Kai first felt a soft body colliding against his chest, then a weak moan came out.

Fortunately, Shen Kai was quick of eye and hand, he quickly walked over and hugged the owner of the voice, preventing him from falling down.

Dong Yixin was about to complain, but when she saw the handsome youth in her arms, her eyes turned deep and enchanting. She held back the words that she was about to curse out.

With a beauty in his embrace, Shen Kai did not linger too much. Are you alright? " Shen Kai asked.

"No …." "It's fine." This was the first time Dong Yixin was hugged in the arms of a man other than her father.

"It's you again! You sneaked out again today?" Shen Kai recognized Dong Yixin.

"Who …" Who sneaked out again? This Miss, I … "I am just walking around the busy city in the open." Dong Yixin originally did not have a guilty conscience, but after being exposed by Shen Kai, he retorted.

Shen Kai couldn't help but tease Dong Yixin when she saw her cute, stuttering appearance, "She didn't sneak out, why did she leave in such a hurry and hit me?"

"I …" Dong Yixin was exposed by Shen Kai, but she could not refute him, she could only pout her lips and grind her teeth in anger.

"It's fine, it's fine. Anyway, his skin is rough and thick, he can withstand a collision. There's no need for Miss to be concerned about him." Wang Zhengyu looked at Shen Kai who had made Dong Yixin speechless, and mocked him from the bottom of her heart.

Originally, Dong Yixin was not really angry, and adding on that she was amused by Wang Zhengyu's words of "rough skin and thick flesh", she still stuck out her tongue at Shen Kai.

In the end, she was still so beautiful that even she looked good when she was angry, Shen Kai could not help but be shocked.

Wang Zhengyu asked: "Is this lady the daughter of the Hundred Escort Alliance's Alliance Master, Dong Ying Bei?"

Dong Yixin looked at Wang Zhengyu, then looked at Shen Kai, and after confirming that the two did not have any evil intentions, she said: "How do you know I am from the Hundred Escort Alliance?"

"Someone who can make genius Escort Zhang Qing into her follower must be treated like only the daughter of a Hundred Escort Alliance." Wang Zhengyu said confidently.

"Genius Escort? Not necessarily. This follower of yours isn't weak either. "

"Miss, you misunderstand. Xiao Kai is my brother and not my follower. He is the second young master of Taixing Escort Office." Wang Zhengyu explained.

"Isn't he just a follower? "Why is he always so stingy?"

"Miss Dong, Xiao Kai just does not like to speak, he is not an arrogant person, I hope Miss does not mind."

"Oh right, what do you want to buy? I can lead the way. " Dong Yixin did not linger on the original topic, as he patted his chest and said.

"Haha, then I'll be troubling Miss Dong." Wang Zhengyu was not unreasonable.

"No need to call me Miss Dong, just call me Xin Xin. That's what my friends call me." Dong Yixin said. She was lively and cheerful, the moment she recognized a friend, she would no longer be restrained.

Compared to the cold Miss Dong Clan, Dong Yixin was like a completely different person. If she had not met her yesterday, Shen Kai would not have believed that she was the same person.

What Shen Kai did not know was that yesterday, he and Wang Zhengyu had worn out their journey from Hu City to Binzhou, even travelled for a few days without washing up. When it came to Binzhou, they did not even have the time to clean themselves. Under such a unfamiliar situation, Dong Yixin first rejected Wang Zhengyu's attire, then slowly rejected him.

The old saying goes, a man relies on his clothes and a horse on his saddle! The current Shen Kai and Wang Zhengyu, because they were participating in the Escort's Great Assembly, had gone through a series of well-dressed, clean and tidy clothes, and in addition, both of their appearances were extremely handsome, especially Shen Kai. That handsome face of his, with a high nose and neither thick lips, and a pair of deep and enchanting eyes, could easily sink into the crowd with just a glance. The young ladies who had yet to leave the pavilion and were already engaged to him couldn't help but take another glance at him.

Of course, the reason for the change in Dong Yixin's attitude, was that they had gained a little bit of strength and cultivation, but even more so was the change in attitude exchanged by the two of them. If not, Zhang Qing's strength would be extremely outstanding, but he would not be able to match up to Dong Yixin at all, let alone being her guide.

And and Wang Zhengyu did not know about any of these. If the two of them knew that Dong Yixin still had a slight aesthetics, it was unknown what they would think.
