C106 water and fire tolerance
As expected of the most bustling street of Xiangyang City, it was worthy of being called the business center of Xiangyang City. The streets were bustling with people, cars, horses, and the streets were bustling with activity. Restaurants and tea shops lined both sides of the street.
This bustling scene was exactly the same as the one in Beijing, the three of them walked and watched along the street leisurely. They were quite at ease, if only their time had been so peaceful and harmonious, everyone would have thought at the same time. However, everything could not be as he wished, because there was no eternal peace in the world. There was also no eternal chaos. These two situations existed as opposed to each other.
Unknowingly, the three of them had arrived at the place where the Groom Search Competition was held yesterday. The arena was still there, but it was no longer as lively and noisy as it was yesterday.
Just as the three were about to turn back, the figure of a young girl caught their attention. She was standing by the side of the stage, staring at the stage with a lifeless look in her eyes, as if she was still reminiscing about yesterday's golden age.
Seeing this person, Lan Feng's heart trembled. Wasn't this the big miss of the 'Eastern Ocean Green Dragon Gang', Yan Yuping? How could she stand here? And for what?
Lan Feng's heart was filled with confusion. In the blink of an eye, he said to Shao Jian: "Senior Brother, I know that woman. She is Green Dragon Gang's Eldest Miss Yan Yuping.
Shao Jian smiled and nodded: "Ok." After speaking, the three of them walked towards Yan Yuping who was standing dumbfoundedly at the side of the stage.
Yan Yuping, who was deep in thought, suddenly heard the sound of footsteps, and slowly turned her face. When she saw Shao Jian and the others, she could not help but be startled.
After a few people came to her front, Lan Feng smiled and said: "Miss Yuping, I never thought that we would meet again.
Yan Yuping's face became ugly, she forced out a faint smile and said: "It's nothing, who are these two?"
Lan Feng laughed embarrassedly: "I forgot to help you introduce me, so this is my senior brother Shao Jian. This beautiful big sister is called Zhang Wudie, you can also call her Big Sister Wu Die, hehe."
Yan Yuping smiled faintly at Shao Jian. After the two greeted each other, Yan Yuping's gaze stopped on Lan Feng, and asked faintly: "Why are you here again, is there a problem?"
Lan Feng said: "Nothing, just now, walking with my senior brother and the Big Sister Wu Die, unknowingly we arrived here, hehe, why are you here too? Seeing that your complexion isn't good, are you sick or is there something on your mind? "
Just as Lan Feng walked to Yan Yuping's side, he felt that something was wrong with the other party's expression, and there was even a hint of sadness on his face, so he hurriedly asked with concern.
Yan Yuping lightly shook his head and said: "I'm fine, thank you."
Just then, Zhang Wudie, who was standing at the side, looked at Shao Jian's handsome face and laughed mysteriously.
Shao Jian was baffled by her smile, and asked: "What's wrong, why are you laughing?"
Zhang Wudie rolled her eyes and said: "You're so stupid, don't you think that Miss Yuping and Lan Feng are compatible? "Wood is just wood, hehe."
Shao Jian said: "This kind of thing cannot be randomly said, otherwise, if there is a misunderstanding, it will be troublesome."
Zhang Wudie snorted, she raised her head and looked at Shao Jian: "The rotten wood cannot be carved, haven't you heard Lan Feng said he had saved the Miss Yuping, and he won the martial arts competition yesterday, are these not enough?"
Shao Jian chuckled: "Women are the most meticulous, you saw through all of this."
Zhang Wudie curled her lips and said: "Are you praising me or cursing me? From the looks of it, you seem to be scolding me. " Shao Jian smiled and did not speak …
And just like that, Lan Feng and Yan Yuping stood opposite each other for half an incense's time. Shao Jian and Zhang Wudie stood to the side and looked at the two of them, they could not help but laugh.
After some thought, Lan Feng asked: "How is Chenghai, are you still angry at me? I clearly told him yesterday that it was a misunderstanding, but I didn't expect him to be so stubborn. "
Yan Yuping said: "My senior brother is such a person, you don't have to mind him too much."
Originally, Lan Feng was very angry with Zhao Chenghai for what he did yesterday, but now it was difficult for him to voice the grievances in his heart. He was afraid that he would cause unnecessary trouble for Yan Yuping, and thus cause the two of them to enter a deeper stalemate.
Smiling, Lan Feng said: "Nothing, I presume this Chenghai was muddle-headed." He always had a smile on his face when he spoke, with a carefree look, completely different from his senior brother Shao Jian.
After pausing for a moment, Lan Feng continued: "The reason I came out this time is to look for my senior brother, and now that I have found him, we will be returning to Wu Dang tomorrow, I hope that you can take care of me, and that Chenghai will treat you better in the future." With that, he gave his blessings to Yan Yuping in his heart, hoping that she would be as happy as she was carefree.
Upon hearing that, Yan Yuping's heart suddenly froze, as though she was pierced by needles. She couldn't breath, because she felt that the first time she saw Lan Feng, she couldn't forget him, and the scene when she saved her along with the heroic aura she gave off yesterday in the martial arts competition, they appeared in her mind every single moment. She suspected that she might have some feelings for Lan Feng, and maybe Lan Feng was the person she would rely on for her entire life, but she didn't think that she would hear such words from him.
Seeing that she did not say anything, Lan Feng smiled slightly, waiting to speak.
At this moment, a voice could be heard from not too far away, "Junior Sister, why did you come here by yourself? I've been forced to look for you everywhere." In just a few moments, the person who spoke was already in front of them. It was Zhao Chenghai.
Zhao Chenghai coldly glanced at the few of them, and in the end, his gaze landed on Lan Feng's body as he coldly said: "Lan Feng, weren't you amazing yesterday? Why did you leave without saying a word? Why did you come all the way here today?"
Lan Feng saw that it was Zhao Chenghai, and that the other party was speaking in such a harsh tone, he restrained the anger in his heart and said: "Chenghai, I think you are mistaken. I have already told you the whole story clearly, if you don't believe me, I can't do anything about it."
Zhao Chenghai coldly snorted: "Misunderstanding, there is no such thing as a misunderstanding between us, don't think that just because yesterday's match was won by my junior would fall for you. Let me tell you, you are not qualified." With that, he stared at Lan Feng fiercely.
Yan Yuping saw that his senior brother had the urge to attack Lan Feng the moment she saw him, and immediately pulled Zhao Chenghai along to advise him: "Senior brother, speak less, this is all a misunderstanding."
Yan Yuping's kind words had severely hurt Zhao Chenghai's already weak heart, she looked at Yan Yuping blankly, then suddenly laughed out loud, and said: "Junior Sister, I never thought that you would actually help an outsider to deal with Senior Brother, did you forget that we were childhood friends? Junior Sister, you have changed. You have truly changed. All of this you have done was for the sake of an outsider. "
At this moment, Yan Yuping could no longer hide the excitement in her heart, and shouted at Zhao Chenghai: "Senior Brother, the one who has changed is you, not me, if you continue to make trouble like this, I'll immediately go back and tell my father."
Zhao Chenghai never thought that his most beloved Junior Sister would always be speaking up for others. In extreme anger, she actually laughed: "Good, good, you dare to use the Clan Master to pressure me, I can't help it."
Zhao Chenghai was close to going crazy, and his eyes immediately revealed a fierce light, as he looked at Lan Feng and roared loudly: "Lan Feng, remember this: the person Junior Sister Yuping loves is me, don't you dare lie to her."
"Zhao Chenghai, I already said that this is just a misunderstanding. I never thought that you would ignore it like this, if you continue babbling like this, then you will walk your own path, I will walk my own bridge, and we will not meet each other, and pretend that I don't know anyone else."
Zhao Chenghai laughed out loud: Good, we already have no feelings for each other, this time it's even better, when we meet again, it will be in a hostile manner, other than that your big sects are already amazing, with your current status in the martial arts world, you are nothing more than a clown, you are still so arrogant, acting like you are acting all high and mighty, wouldn't the people of the world laugh at you?
It seemed that if he did not appear right now to stop this, a great battle would immediately erupt. Hearing Zhao Chenghai's undisguised nonsense, Shao Jian frowned and said indifferently: "Zhao Chenghai, this matter shall end here. If you continue to stir up trouble like this, don't blame me for not reminding you." Even though his tone was very gentle and did not carry a single trace of killing intent, it was filled with arrogance and an irresistible might.
As expected, Zhao Chenghai did not dare say anymore, and only fiercely clenched his teeth, because he knew in his heart that his own strength was far inferior to Shao Jian's. Although the two of them had never fought before, he was still wary of the fact that the other party had forced the Five Toxics's Protector back with just a few moves.
As he coldly stared at Lan Feng, Zhao Chenghai continued, "Lan Feng, remember this well, there will be a day when I will make you lose to me. Then, without waiting for a reply, he turned and walked away.
Lan Feng looked at the sad face Yan Yuping and said: Miss Yuping, I am truly sorry. I never thought that such a thing would happen.
Yan Yuping nodded her head: "It's all my senior brother's fault, I'll cover for him like you guys, I hope you won't mind." As she spoke, she wanted to apologize to Shao Jian and the others.
Shao Jian hurriedly stepped forward to stop his, "Miss Yuping, there's no need to be like this. The one at fault is not you." After thinking for a moment, he said his inner thoughts that he shouldn't have said, "Miss Yuping, if you trust Lan Feng and me, then you should guard against your senior brother more. In my opinion, after this incident, his personality has greatly changed, and he could do anything, but it would be for the best if your senior brother could wake up."
Yan Yuping said: "Thank you, I will pay more attention."
Shao Jian slightly smiled and said: "Then, take care, we will take our leave first."
