Longhua Kingdom, Kyoto, Honglu Temple.
The young monks from the four sects in the northern border were sitting in the reception room, each of them with a worried look on their face.
"Dear guests, please rest here for a while while I submit my report first."
Several officials from the Ministry of Rites called on their subordinates and arranged for these people to be settled.
"Excuse me, sir." Zhou Zhou said with a bow.
"Hey, what are you talking about?" The official from the Ministry of Rites quickly waved his hand, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that he would entertain you all well."
"Xin Zhao and Long Hua are in the same room, so there's no need to be so reserved."
Soon, all the people from the Ministry of Rites left the Honglu Temple, leaving only the subordinates who were there to entertain them.
After a long silence, these monks finally spoke.
"Brother Zhou, when can we go back?" a girl said fearfully.
The cultivator who was speaking came from the Bingpo Sect, one of the four sects. The Dao patterns carved on his face were the characteristics of the cultivators of the Bingpo Sect.
Zhou Zhou shook his head. He was unsure about going south to Longhua Kingdom in the Central Plains this time.
Not to mention the long journey, when Longhua Kingdom learned of their arrival, their attitude was indeed a bit negligent.
If the prince had not intervened, they would still be stuck outside the border.
"I'm not sure, but at least we have to agree on the support." Zhou Zhou said.
"If you ask me, you shouldn't have come here," another male cultivator said with a look of displeasure. "What's the use of demonic cultivators or not? The four sects have united, are you still afraid that you can't defeat them?"
"Brother Mu is right. I don't think there's anything special about Longhua Country and Xuanyu Sect. I don't think they'll be of any use."
The most eye-catching blue-eyed monk among the group also spoke slowly, then looked at Zhou Zhou in silence.
Zhou Zhou understood that the reason he was able to lead the disciples of the four sects was only because he was ordered by Zhao Zimo. Also, it was because the Jiluan Sect was the first to discover the traces of the demon cultivators, and therefore it was considered prestigious among the four sects.
"My fellow Taoists, please calm down first. We will wait for Prince Xin Zhao to come back before discussing this." Zhou Zhou quickly comforted them.
"Fuck! Prince Xin Zhao? He ran away as soon as he arrived in Longhua Kingdom. What's there for us to discuss?" The male cultivator couldn't help but curse.
"Mu You, shut up!" the blue-eyed monk immediately scolded.
"Zang Qing, don't think that everyone is as good-tempered as you," Mu You sneered, "I think you've become stupid from practicing pupil techniques. You can't even tell the difference between good and bad."
"I don't want to argue with you." Cang Qing said with a frown.
The leaders began to quarrel, and the other monks also began to whisper among themselves, and an uneasy mood spread in the reception room.
Zhou Zhou was also extremely anxious when he saw the chaotic scene.
While everyone was still arguing, Zhao Zimo suddenly opened the door, carried a huge axe on his shoulder, and walked in half naked.
"Prince Zhao, what are you doing..." Zhou Zhou pointed at Zhao Zimo's clothes and asked curiously.
Zhao Zimo looked around, and everyone's eyes were focused on him, except Mu You, who looked disdainful.
He snorted inwardly and casually threw the giant axe in his hand to the ground.
boom--
Two terrible cracks appeared in the hard floor in an instant.
"I'm sorry, everyone. I just had a fight with the Crown Prince of Longhua. I've kept you waiting."
Although Zhao Zimo's voice was a little muffled, it was full of confidence and everyone could hear it clearly.
Zhou Zhou looked at Zhao Zimo in surprise, and the expressions of the other cultivators changed slightly.
What's happening here?
He started looking for a fight as soon as he arrived in Longhua Kingdom, and he picked a fight with the prince. How deep must his hatred and resentment be?
People don't have much contact with Zhao Zimo and don't know much about his strength. They only know that he has already broken through the foundation-building stage and is good at using a pair of ancient giant axes.
"What did the Ministry of Rites say?"
Zhao Zimo asked Zhou Zhou indifferently.
Zhou Zhou came to his senses and replied, "They said they had to report to the court first, so they asked us to rest here first."
Zhao Zimo frowned and said, "No more?"
"Gone."
Everyone looked at each other, wondering what Zhao Zimo was thinking.
"Forget it, pack up your things," Zhao Zimo said, "I'll take you somewhere else."
Kyoto, Qianhua Lao
Hongdie never thought that she would meet so many high-level monks in this life.
"Boss, where did you find it from?"
Hongdie stared at these monks in different costumes and was stunned for a moment.
The last time Li Chonglin led the guards to eat, Qianhua made a lot of money. This time, with so many monks coming to eat hot pot, I wonder how much money they will make.
Lu Yuguan's mouth was almost smiling.
Zhao Zimo took out two large gold ingots to eat, his eyes glowing green.
Since we have to eat anyway, we might as well take care of our brother’s business.
"Ahem, these are just suckers... No, they are all distinguished guests from the North," Lu Yuguan said cheerfully. "Eat, eat as much as you want, as much as you want!"
Zhao Zimo felt relieved when he saw that everyone was eating so happily.
"Yuguan, thank you so much."
"Well, what's there to talk about thanking or not?" Lu Yuguan picked up the freshly cooked mutton and put it into Zhao Zimo's sesame sauce dish. "Come on, come on, eat more. You must have been tired after coming all this way here."
If it weren't for those two big gold ingots, I wouldn't pick any food for you!
Zhao Zimo was flattered by the sudden concern.
"No need, no need. I can do it myself." Zhao Zimo said quickly.
"Then I'll pour you some wine." Lu Yuguan said with a smile.
Zhao Zimo looked at Lu Yuguan who was pouring wine, and his heart, which had been tense for a long time, relaxed again.
The situation in the north is not optimistic. For so many days, he has been doing everything himself and there is no possibility of slacking off.
Now he can finally take a breath and enjoy the rare quiet time.
"Yuguan."
Zhao Zimo spoke gently.
"what happened?"
Lu Yuguan straightened the wine jug, then sat opposite Zhao Zimo and looked at him.
"I have something to ask you."
Zhao Zimo's voice was low, as if he was thinking about something.
"What's the matter?" Lu Yuguan's heart tightened.
Zhao Zimo took a deep breath and organized his words nervously.
He grabbed Lu Yuguan's hand and asked, "Yuguan, tell me honestly, did Li Chonglin really bully you?"
Lu Yuguan's heart skipped a beat. He didn't understand what he should say.
"Brother Zhao, why are you asking these questions?"
"This morning in the Prince's Palace, you said you weren't bullied, but I clearly saw the bruises on your body—" Zhao Zimo said indignantly.
"Ahhh!" Lu Yuguan's face turned red. "That's from my training... I've been working out lately..."
"You lied to me." Zhao Zimo's voice became low and even trembled. "Yuguan, why don't you tell me the truth? Do you think I can't make the decision for you?"
Looking at Zhao Zimo's serious face, Lu Yuguan felt an itch in his heart for some reason.
"That's not what I meant." Lu Yuguan replied in a low voice.
"Why is that?" Zhao Zimo refused to give up and continued to ask, "Don't tell me you hate me?"
"Just tell me if I did something wrong."
"I change."
Lu Yuguan looked at Zhao Zimo's angular face and met his affectionate eyes.
Sharp eyes, unexpectedly clear.
