C676 Martial Kings Everywhere

"Sir, our boss would like to see you!"

Waiting outside the private room was a young girl in a blue dress. When she saw Woo Zhengyang come out, she gave a polite bow and said.

"Who is your boss?"

Seeing someone waiting for him, Woo Zhengyang wasn't too nervous. When he arrived in Profound Heaven Town, he hadn't planned on hiding his identity. He was just surprised that in a place where ancient swords were so popular, no one seemed to care about a real master like him showing up.

However, Woo Zhengyang believed that if any experts were paying attention, they might notice something unusual. So, when he saw someone waiting for him, he figured someone had recognized who he was.

What puzzled Woo Zhengyang was why this girl's boss, who must be a powerful practitioner to recognize him, didn't come personally. Instead, they sent a girl who had just started her training. Weren't they worried he might just leave?

"Our boss is the owner of this Moonlit Tower! Please, sir..." the girl said with a smile, gesturing in the direction they needed to go.

With such courteous treatment, Woo Zhengyang couldn't just turn away. Besides, he was genuinely curious about the owner of the Moonlit Tower.

The Moonlit Tower had a main hall on the first floor and private rooms on the second. The girl led Woo Zhengyang to the third floor, stopping in front of a room that looked quite ordinary.

"Please, sir, our boss is waiting for you inside!"

Woo Zhengyang nodded and pushed the door open.

From the outside, the room looked quite ordinary, but inside, it was exquisitely decorated, predominantly in pink, which took Woo Zhengyang by surprise.

"Could it be that the owner of this place is a woman?"

Just as Woo Zhengyang was pondering this, the wooden door behind him closed on its own. At the same time, he sensed that a barrier enveloping the room had been activated with the door's closure.

Unfazed, Woo Zhengyang continued to survey the room.

"You truly are fearless, Young Master Woo, calm in any situation!" A sultry, captivating voice echoed as a screen in front of him slid aside.

Behind the screen was a pink canopy. Beyond that, a figure lay reclining, dressed in simple, alluring attire. A foot, as pale as ivory, extended beyond the canopy, whether intentionally or not.

"May I ask if you are the owner of this place?"

The woman didn't answer directly. Instead, she casually waved her hand, causing the canopy to part, revealing her shapely figure and a face flushed with a captivating allure.

"Now, do you still care about my identity?" she asked, her eyes seductive, her lips parting slightly.

The woman's meaning was clear: one was about the body, the other about identity. Which one do you care about?

Such an enticing scene, such straightforward expression—if it were anyone else, their heart might already be stirred. Even Woo Zhengyang in the past might have struggled to control his impulses. But now, Woo Zhengyang felt no pressure. Why? He was used to it...

The woman before him was incredibly alluring, but Woo Zhengyang had someone just as captivating by his side. Hongnu's beauty and figure were on par with this woman's, and her allure was even more direct. Woo Zhengyang had grown accustomed to daily temptations...

“May I ask why you called me here?” Woo Zhengyang couldn't ask about the woman's identity; doing so would imply he wasn't interested in her physical allure, which would surely offend someone who prided herself on her charm.

Even though the woman noticed Woo Zhengyang's indifference to her charms, she was still somewhat displeased and pouted, “Young Master Woo, even if you have four fairies and some mysterious princess by your side, you don't have to ignore me like this!”

“You misunderstand, miss. I simply have other matters to attend to, so I can't appreciate your beauty right now.”

The woman pouted again, dismissively saying, “You're just running for your life... You've already reached the outskirts of town, what's the rush?”

Woo Zhengyang smiled slightly, not offering much explanation. Anyone who saw him here would likely think he had escaped from the Profound Heaven Sect.

"If there's nothing else, I'll be on my way," Woo Zhengyang said, finding his own words amusing. After all, she had already recognized him, so how could there be nothing?

But perhaps it was for the best. Since the woman refused to reveal her intentions, Woo Zhengyang couldn't force her hand.

"Of course there's something," she replied calmly, her voice measured.

"Please, go ahead."

"You've heard the situation isn't in your favor. However, I can help you. I've thought long and hard and come up with three options for you. Would you like to hear them?"

Woo Zhengyang wanted to say he wasn't interested and that if she wanted to fight, they should get on with it. But before he could refuse, she began speaking.

"The first option is straightforward: hand over the King Rank weapon you're carrying. With it out of your hands and not with the Profound Heaven Sect, your crisis would be resolved. Even if Liao Qinghua from the Heavenly Martial Sect doesn't want to let it go, I assure you I'll handle it."

The woman finally revealed her aim was the No Life Sword, which didn't surprise Woo Zhengyang. What did surprise him was her confidence. Many desired the No Life Sword, but few believed they could keep it.

In the small town, many martial artists were biding their time, hoping to take advantage of the chaos. Their plan was to quietly snatch the No Life Sword and then vanish to avoid being attacked by others. However, the woman's intentions were clear. If she obtained the sword, she would make it public to alleviate the crisis for Woo Zhengyang and the Profound Heaven Sect. She even intended to suppress the Heavenly Martial Sect. It was audacious, considering even a sect on par with the Heavenly Martial Sect wouldn't dare boast like that.

"You don't need to worry about me going back on my word. You're here with me now; do you think I have any reason to deceive you?" the woman said, exuding a powerful aura.

A martial artist of the highest caliber, this woman was indeed a formidable force. Although Woo Zhengyang had suspected it, he was still shocked. Rumors had spread that Profound Heaven Town was teeming with martial artists of her caliber, suggesting that even a street vendor could be one. Woo Zhengyang had thought that was an exaggeration.

Now, it seemed that while the rumors might have been embellished, they weren't entirely off the mark. He had casually chosen a tavern and encountered a martial artist of such prowess—a woman who appeared delicate and alluring, yet was undeniably powerful.
