Since Shen Zhenyi said that the other party was not a bad person, the three female disciples were not worried at all.
They were skilled and bold, and with their master around, they had nothing to fear. Cynanchum Chinense stepped forward and said with a smile, "Don't worry, we're just passersby."
Passersby?
The other party did not let down their guard at all.
This was not a safe place in the city, and it was not even an official road for normal people to pass through. Who would dare not worry about a chance encounter in the wilderness?
Standing in the air was a woman with hidden divine light. Her expression was cold, and she was dressed in yellow. Her beautiful eyes were vigilantly looking at the four people in front of her.
"The wilderness is extremely dangerous. Since you're passing through here, you must not be nameless. Why don't you tell me your names?"
Those who dared to enter the wilderness were definitely powerful masters. The people in front of her did not look shocking and had a sense of leisure, but it made people even more afraid to underestimate them.
"Abandoned Sword Villa, Shen Zhenyi, Zining Jun, Cynanchum Chinense, and Princess Long."
There was nothing to hide, so they told her frankly.
The woman in yellow frowned. She had never heard of these people's names. Their divine light was restrained, so she couldn't see how high their cultivation was. Just as she was about to ask, someone beside her exclaimed, "King City's Abandoned Sword Villa?"
There was even a hint of fear in the voice.
The Abandoned Sword Villa's reputation in the Southern Region was already extremely terrifying. Although it had not spread to the Central Plains, there were still people who had heard of it.
"This person colluded with the Ferocious Beasts and slaughtered the Suzerains of the nineteen cities in the Southern Region!"
"How … how dare he!"
"He actually dares to speak so bluntly!"
Although only a few people knew about it, it immediately became a terrible storm when it spread a little.
Slaughtering the martial artists of the Southern Region!
— — -This title was truly frightening.
The woman was stunned and wanted to ask more, but someone pulled her and whispered to her about the horror of the Abandoned Sword Villa. "Miss Yuan, we have a big matter to attend to. These people are extremely vicious, so it's better not to provoke them."
The person who spoke had a rough appearance, and there was impatience in his eyes.
"Uncle Kong."
The expression of the woman who was called Miss Yuan changed slightly. She bit her lips and said, "I'll leave it to Uncle Kong."
The man said casually, "Don't worry, I will take care of it. Although the Abandoned Sword Villa is famous for its ferocity, in the end, it is only a murderer from a desolate place in the Southern Region. We don't need to be afraid of it, as long as we don't cause any trouble. Sit down, I'll handle it. "
He reached out to put his hand on Miss Yuan's shoulder. Miss Yuan's expression changed slightly, and she shrunk back quietly. The man touched nothing and smiled embarrassedly. He floated up and cupped his hands toward Shen Zhenyi and the others. "Gentlemen, Miss Yuan of the Xuan Tian City's Bureau of Ten Thousand Sages is here. We've just met by chance, so let's mind our own business."
This person's tone was irritating, revealing a sense of arrogance. Cynanchum Chinense was too lazy to pay attention to him. She curled her lips and said, "Well water doesn't interfere with river water. It's you guys who are oversensitive. What does it have to do with us?"
"Bureau of Ten Thousand Sages?"
Shen Zhenyi nodded slightly. He glanced at Miss Yuan and asked indifferently, "Nothing, is Mr. Yuan Tianshuang still here?"
— Well, as expected, you know him again.
Cynanchum Chinense sighed.
It had become a fixed understanding that her Master knew everyone. Since this person's elder was acquainted with her Master, she couldn't be too rude to him.
Miss Yuan trembled and asked in surprise, "Young Master, you know my late father?"
She hesitated for a moment and felt that something was wrong. Mr. Yuan had passed away many years ago. How could he know a young man from hundreds of thousands of miles away in the Southern Region?
Maybe this person had only heard of her father's name.
Unfortunately … after her father's death, the Bureau of Ten Thousand Sages was only a name. Otherwise, she wouldn't be where she was today.
She sighed softly.
Contrary to her expectations, Shen Zhenyi nodded and said, "Back then, I had a chance to meet Mister Yuan. Has he already passed away? What a pity. "
It was always a pity that a talented person had withered away.
— It was a pity that since ancient times, no one could live forever in this world. No matter how amazing a person was, he or she couldn't escape from death. Yuan Tianshuang was known to be omniscient. Not only was his martial arts excellent, but he also knew everything about medicine, divination, astrology, and so on. But now, he was just a handful of yellow soil.
"Humph!"
Uncle Kong snorted. He naturally didn't believe a word Shen Zhenyi said.
How could a master of a villa in a remote place in the Southern Region have never been to Xuantian City in his life? How could he know Mr. Yuan, who didn't go out but knew everything in the world? This person came up to make friends with him. He probably had some ulterior motives!
He had a guilty conscience and gauged the heart of a gentleman with the yardstick of a villain.
To avoid being involved, he went forward and whispered, "Miss, you don't have to believe him. It's better to speak less."
They had serious business to do. If they were involved in this trouble, God knew what kind of accident would happen.
It would be difficult for him to succeed in his scheme.
Miss Yuan hesitated for a moment. She looked at Uncle Kong, then at Shen Zhenyi, and then at the people around her who were following her in fear. Then, she made a decision.
"My late father passed away many years ago. Thank you for your concern. Young Master, please go ahead. We'll part ways here. "
— Now that they were in trouble, it was better not to implicate others. Whether the other party was a good person or a bad person, good or bad, it was better to part ways here.
Uncle Kong nodded. He couldn't wait for Shen Zhenyi and the others to disappear quickly.
Shen Zhenyi was not in a hurry. He glanced at the crowd and said casually, "Mr. Yuan also asked me to take care of his descendants. Since we met on the road, if you have any difficulties, you can tell me. If I can help, I will reach out and help."
This was the first time they met, and he was calling her niece?
Cynanchum Chinense glared at him with dissatisfaction. Miss Yuan was very surprised and even a little at a loss.
Uncle Kong's face turned cold.
"Third Young Master Shen, don't push your luck. It's not up to you people from the Southern Region to interfere in the affairs of the Wan Xian Bureau!"
He had suspected that this group of people suddenly appeared and was quite unusual. He didn't believe that it was a coincidence that they met in the wilderness. Now that Shen Zhenyi spoke, he almost prejudiced that Abandoned Sword Villa wanted to intervene, so he refuted it without hesitation.
"So, you really have a problem?"
Shen Zhenyi's eyes flashed silver. He ignored him and only stared at Miss Yuan.
Miss Yuan was stunned and looked at Uncle Kong at a loss. She didn't know how to answer.
Today, the Wan Xian Bureau had encountered a great event. If it weren't for the desperate situation, how could she, the daughter of the Wan Xian Bureau, take the risk and enter the depths of the wilderness?
She used all the connections left by her father to ask Uncle Kong for help. If she could get through this difficult situation, she was afraid that she would have to pay a high price.
Who was this Third Young Master Shen who offered to help?
Did he really have a friendship with her father?
Miss Yuan was confused for a moment, but also had a sense of urgency.
