Pick up a princess to be your wife

As Yang Zhuang walked out of the gate, he saw Li Mu and Zhong Wu standing in front of him.

He was somewhat surprised to see Li Mu. This kid had been hit by two arrows yesterday, yet he could move around freely now.

Yang Zhuang stepped forward and bowed to Zhong Wu.

"General, I am from Yangzhuang of the Tianhe Gang. May I ask why you have brought your troops to book the Jinyulou?"

"Do I need to explain to you what I want to do?" Zhong Wu replied coldly.

"General, let's talk this out. Peace brings wealth..."

"late."

Zhong Wu interrupted Yang Zhuang.

“General, I can take responsibility for what happened yesterday. I will apologize to Lord Li. Please name your price, General,” Yang Zhuang said.

Zhong Wu stopped speaking.

Yang Zhuang felt somewhat embarrassed when Zhong Wu didn't respond.

"Lord Li, there was a misunderstanding yesterday. Could you please withdraw the troops for my sake?" Yang Zhuang said, bowing to Li Mu.

"Why should I care about your feelings?" Li Mu asked indifferently.

"What does Lord Li want to do to appease his anger?" Yang Zhuang asked.

"What was the name of the person who ambushed me yesterday?" Li Mu asked.

“He’s my junior brother, Zeng Guanghua,” Yang Zhuang replied.

"Hand over Zeng Guanghua's head. Also, everyone leave Jinyulou. I'm going to demolish the building; I don't want to harm innocent people," Li Mu said in a deep voice.

"No more talk?"

Yang Zhuang felt very embarrassed.

Although Yang Zhuang is not a top expert in the martial arts world, his peak fourth-grade strength already puts him in the first tier.

While not exactly highly respected, he certainly had some reputation.

"What's there to talk about with you? Why should I talk to you? Who can you represent?" Li Mu said dismissively.

"Lord Li, do you know whose property this Golden Jade Pavilion is?"

"Who?"

"King Tai of Qi".

"Oh."

Li Mu nodded.

"I'm determined to tear down the Golden Jade Tower, and even Jesus can't stop me, I'm telling you!"

Jesus? Who? I've never heard of him in Yangzhuang.

At this moment, Yang Zhuang really wanted to say, "You're clearly being incredibly shameless! You dare to demolish Qi Wangtai's property? Do you even know who Qi Wangtai is? He's the most powerful prince in the entire Great Yan Dynasty, without a doubt!"

"Since Lord Li is unreasonable, there's nothing more to say."

"You think I'm unreasonable? Fine, then I'll explain it to you first. Tell me, why did Zeng Guanghua attack me yesterday when I had a conflict with someone outside Jin Yu Lou?" Li Mu said coldly.

"My fellow disciples and I were invited by Jin Yu Lou to maintain its peace. Since you've caused trouble at Jin Yu Lou, my junior brother naturally..."

"You old fool, is your brain in your ass? Didn't you understand what I said? What I'm doing outside Jin Yu Lou has nothing to do with your Jin Yu Lou."

Your Jin Yu Lou's retainers are nothing but dogs who judge people by their status. Seeing that Hu Fan's son was beaten by me, you run out to take his side?

You dare to lay a hand on me? Who gave you the courage? I just came to see someone yesterday, but you made things difficult for me in every way.

If Zeng Guanghua hadn't ambushed me yesterday, how could I have been injured? You despicable villain, saying I'm unreasonable?

Tell me, do you want to die, or do you not want to live anymore?

This retort left Yang Zhuang speechless.

He had indeed witnessed Zeng Guanghua's ambush of Li Mu yesterday.

They didn't take this small matter seriously. But they never expected that Zeng Guanghua's scheme against Li Mu would cause such a big problem.

"Brother Xingzhou, since he says we're unreasonable, why are we even bothering to reason with them? Let's just kill him too," Zhong Wu said irritably.

He didn't quite like the old man.

In Li Mu's words, this is a typical example of double standards.

The people from Jin Yu Lou came out to take sides and even attacked Li Mu; they were clearly no good.

Upon hearing Zhong Wu's words, Yang Zhuang didn't dare to say that the other party was being too arrogant.

With four or five thousand troops, killing him would be as easy as turning one's hand.

"Get rid of everyone who has nothing to do with Jin Yu Lou," Li Mu said.

"Yes."

At Zhong Wu's command, the archer battalion immediately sprang into action.

Everyone filed in and entered through the gate. Some people gathered in the courtyard, while others went in to drive people away.

Soon after, almost everyone inside Jin Yu Lou was kicked out.

Zeng Guanghua, however, hid inside and dared not come out.

Upon seeing Yang Zhuang return, Zeng Guanghua hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Senior brother, how did the negotiations go?"

“They’re difficult to talk to; they’re determined to kill you. They’re even threatening to tear down the Golden Jade Pavilion,” Yang Zhuang said.

“Why are these people so unreasonable? It’s just a small conflict, is it really worth putting someone to death?” Zeng Guanghua said.

"Junior brother, you probably have nowhere to run today," Yang Zhuang said.

"what?"

Just then, Li Mu's voice came from outside.

"Hand over Zeng Guanghua's head, or you will be killed without mercy!"

"What should I do?"

Zeng Guanghua finally panicked.

"Senior brother, please go and negotiate again."

"I……"

Before he could finish speaking, a hail of arrows rained down upon him.

The people inside the house dodged and weaved.

But the rain of arrows grew denser and denser, soon turning the doors and windows into sieves.

Several people quickly flipped the table over to deflect the stray arrows.

"Senior brother, these people are so unreasonable, we might as well fight them!" Zeng Guanghua said urgently.

Yang Zhuang also realized that there was no way out of this matter.

Li Mu will not rest until he kills Zeng Guanghua.

"Alright! If you and I, fellow disciples, join forces and fight our way out, it shouldn't be a big problem. I refuse to believe that a bunch of scoundrels can hold back three of us fourth-rank experts!" Yang Zhuang said.

"go!"

Yang Zhuang and Zeng Guanghua pushed the table forward with all their might, broke through the window that was riddled with bullets, and jumped off the second floor.

The other worshipper had no intention of fighting them to the death.

The enemy army of several thousand men is in a hopeless situation unless a third-grade expert leads the charge.

He ran straight back, and after going downstairs, he didn't even try to resist; he immediately knelt down and surrendered.

Yang Zhuang and Zeng Guanghua landed in the ranks of soldiers and immediately charged forward.

They're just a bunch of soldiers who don't even know what martial arts realm is. What difficulty could they possibly have in charging out?

However, they had never fought against a regular army and did not understand the principle that even a fierce tiger cannot withstand a pack of wolves.

The archers immediately spread out, forming an encirclement, and began firing arrows wildly at the two men.

Immediately afterwards, countless archers climbed the stairs to the second floor, took up the high ground, and began shooting arrows at the two people in the courtyard below.

In less than a quarter of an incense stick's time, the two men were riddled with arrows by thousands of archers.
