Martial Arts: After ten years of sword-drawing, the Sword God must bow his head when he sees me

Chapter 133 I'm going to seek revenge.
Having already gone this far, how could the others not understand Shen Ping'an's meaning?
Zhang San Niang and the others all had a dark expression, and a strong killing intent surged in their hearts.

Zhang San Niang gritted her teeth, her tone carrying a hint of murderous intent: "I never expected that the renowned Wuhen Gongzi would actually be a womanizer."

All three were women, and as women, they naturally abhorred flower thieves.

Even if they met on a normal day, given the personalities and ways the three women acted, they probably wouldn't let it go easily.

Not to mention that today the other party has even poisoned them.

The three women's murderous intent toward Young Master Wuhen at this moment can be imagined.

Seeing the three women's gritted teeth, Shen Ping'an gently shook his head.

"I hadn't thought much about the nickname of the Traceless Gentleman before, but now it seems that the Hundred Knowledge Pavilion's choice of this nickname for him was already quite meaningful."

Following Shen Ping'an's words, the group thought of Wuhen Gongzi's alias, "Spring Dream Without a Trace".

Thinking back to Shen Ping'an's explanation of the effects of the "shougongxiang" (a type of incense), the group quickly realized the meaning behind the nickname.

Qu Feiyan asked in astonishment, "Does the young master mean that the Hundred Knowledge Pavilion already knew that this Wuhen Young Master was a womanizer?"

Shen Ping'an said softly, "The intelligence network of Baixiaoge is the result of hundreds of years of operation and accumulation, which is difficult for even the imperial court to match."

"What Young Master Wuhen has done in the martial world over the years is difficult for others to find out, but it is not difficult for Baixiaoge to find out with its capabilities."

Finally, Shen Ping'an unconsciously tapped his fingertips lightly on the table.

He was neither fond of fame nor fortune, like a hermit, yet he never did anything to punish evil or eliminate wickedness, and he didn't have many enemies.

"This is the kind of person who possesses the rare poison 'Gecko Incense' and is usually elusive."

"How could this be the case without some special reason?"

Shen Qingshan muttered to himself, "Like a dragon whose head is seen but not its tail, could it be that it's trying to harm those women and then make it impossible to trace them?"

The others remained silent, but they knew that if Young Master Wuhen was indeed a womanizer, it was necessary for them to keep their whereabouts secret.

Otherwise, wherever he goes, two girls will be harmed. It might be fine for a short time, but as time goes on, people will inevitably find out the truth.

At this moment, Yaoyue asked, "When did you discover it?"

Shen Ping'an didn't hide anything and said truthfully, "When I walked past them, the four women behind that Wuhen Gongzi smelled of bewitching powder."

"It seems that these four people are not Wuhen Gongzi's maids, but rather their minds have been controlled by the bewitching powder and they have been forced to stay by his side."

Yaoyue looked puzzled and asked, "Since you discovered that he was secretly poisoning you and guessed that he was a womanizer, why didn't you take action and let him leave?"

Shen Ping'an said softly, "Tomorrow is the day Liu Zhengfeng retires from the martial arts world. There are people from the Five Mountains Sword Sect and the Sun Moon Sect hiding in Fuzhou City. If we make a move suddenly, it will inevitably be seen as alerting them."

"Moreover, since he secretly placed this 'ghost incense', it means that he will follow the scent tonight."

"If that's the case, why should I be in such a hurry?"

Moreover, it is said in the martial arts world that the "Rain of Flowers and Money" technique of the Wuhen Gongzi is unparalleled.

Shen Ping'an also wanted to see if the Wuhen Gongzi's money-scattering move was really as powerful as rumored.

Finally, after glancing at the group, Shen Ping'an said, "Don't worry! I've already poisoned him. Even if he doesn't come today, he'll have a hard time surviving past midnight tonight."

Regardless of the other party's identity, secretly poisoning someone is, in Shen Ping'an's eyes, an act of suicide.

Shen Ping'an's decision not to act immediately does not mean he will truly allow Young Master Wuhen to leave unharmed after poisoning someone.

Upon hearing Shen Ping'an's words, the group looked at him in astonishment.

Clearly, they hadn't expected that Shen Ping'an had secretly poisoned the other party.

Zhang San Niang said with a hint of surprise, "I never expected that Young Master Shen would be so skilled in using poison. I admire you."

Shen Ping'an smiled slightly in acknowledgment. Seeing that Shen Ping'an didn't intend to elaborate, the three women didn't continue the discussion on this topic.

After an incense stick had burned, and after everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, the group returned to their respective carriages.

Before long, three carriages slowly began to travel through the city.

However, this time, the carriages were not heading towards the inn in the city.

Instead, after wandering around, they arrived at a house in the north of Fuzhou city.

Amidst the respectful greetings of the disciples of Yihua Palace, the group stepped into the residence.

The house wasn't very big; it was just a typical three-courtyard house.

In addition to the front and back yards, there is also a garden at the back.

The environment is quite elegant.

After entering the house, Lianxing said, "Time was short, and this was the only house my men could find. I hope Young Master Shen will not find it unpleasant."

In response to Lianxing's words, Shen Ping'an shook his head and said, "Being able to stay in such a courtyard instead of an inn is already quite good. How could I possibly have any complaints? Palace Master Lianxing is overthinking it."

By this time, it was completely dark.

It was only because of the lanterns hanging all over the house that it felt brightly lit even in the dark.

While Qu Feiyan and Shen Qingshan began tidying up Shen Ping'an's room, Shen Ping'an and the others sat in the courtyard.

Perhaps bored while waiting, Lianxing looked at Shen Ping'an and asked, "After Grandpa Feiyan's matter is resolved tomorrow, what are your plans, Young Master Shen? Are you planning to return to the Shen family or..."

As the question was posed, Zhang San Niang and Yao Yue beside him also looked at Shen Ping An.

After a moment's thought, Shen Ping'an replied truthfully to Lianxing's question: "If nothing unexpected happens, I will go to Shenjian Manor after tomorrow's business is settled."

"Divine Sword Manor? Is Young Master Shen going to visit Senior Xie to catch up?" Zhang Sanniang asked.

Shen Ping'an shook his head and said, "If it were a few months ago, I could have had a chat with Senior Xie and even exchanged ideas on swordsmanship when I went to Shenjian Manor, but this time, I am going to seek revenge."

Upon hearing the words "seeking revenge," the expressions of Zhang San Niang and the other two changed.

Seemingly knowing what the three women were thinking, Shen Ping'an said softly, "The Celestial Realm expert who broke into the Shen family that night was from the Xie family."

With just one sentence, the three women instantly understood why Shen Ping'an was going to Shenjian Manor to seek revenge.

Zhang San Niang frowned and said, "Why would the Xie family send someone to harm Young Master Shen for no reason? Could there be some hidden reason behind this?"

Shen Ping'an said in a gentle voice, "There is no hidden reason. It's just that my existence has threatened the status of the Divine Sword Manor as a sacred place of swordsmanship."

None of the three were naive newcomers to the martial arts world.

Feuds and killings arising from fame and fortune in the martial arts world are already commonplace.

Therefore, although Shen Ping'an's explanation was simple, the three women quickly understood the reason behind it.

For a moment, Zhang Sanniang couldn't help but sigh, "Divine Sword Manor is a top-tier power, yet it revealed its murderous intent just because of Young Master Shen's sword talent. This is rather despicable."

Shen Ping'an chuckled and said, "Sometimes in life, one has no choice but to be burdened by fame. It may be unexpected, but it is also reasonable."

At this point, Shen Ping'an sighed softly and said, "It's just a pity that Divine Sword Manor chose the wrong target this time."

However, at that moment, Shen Ping'an suddenly spoke up as if he had sensed something: "The people have arrived."

As soon as the words left her mouth, the eyes of the three women, including Yaoyue, narrowed slightly.

Even Qu Feiyan and Shen Qingshan, who were inside the house, rushed out immediately upon hearing Shen Ping'an's words, looking very interested.
