At noon, the aroma of cooking meat in Old Cang's yard was getting stronger and stronger, drifting far away with the wind.
The squint-eyed youth who was cursing at the door swallowed his saliva due to the aroma.
"It smells so f * cking good!" Tie Yong, who was standing next to the squint-eyed youth, couldn't resist the temptation of the aroma and kicked the door open. "What are you shouting at the door for? Let's go in!"
Tie Yong was tall and sturdy. His arms, which were exposed by the leather vest, were tanned and muscular. There were three long scars on the left side of his face. He didn't need to pose, but he naturally had a fierce aura.
He was the youngest son of the Iron Blood Army's Thousand Commander, Tie Feng. When he was ten years old, he went out to hunt. Last year, he could already kill a green wolf by himself.
With such courage and his father's support, Tie Yong had always been rude and unreasonable.
Old Cang was just a butcher who sold meat, so Tie Yong didn't care about him at all.
Under Tie Yong's lead, more than ten youths rushed into Old Cang's backyard.
"That's him," the squint-eyed youth pointed at Gao Zhengyang and said with a face full of hatred, "Boss, you have to help me vent my anger."
Tie Yong's triangular eyes glanced at Gao Zhengyang, then turned to look at the blade in his hand.
The blade in the ebony scabbard was slender and elegant, but it didn't look like an ordinary blade.
Tie Yong's family background was good, but he couldn't use such a good blade. Tie Yong immediately became excited at the thought that it would be his if he snatched it.
Compared to the blade, the fragrant pork was nothing.
Tie Yong took a few steps forward and looked down at Gao Zhengyang. His triangular eyes were full of ruthlessness, "Give me the blade, and I won't kill you."
Gao Zhengyang glanced at Tie Yong, then looked away. Four pairs of eyes looked at each other to see whose gaze was more ruthless. That was something only children would do.
He was thinking about how to solve the problem. If Lin Ye and the others were biting dogs, then Tie Yong was a man-eating wolf.
The savagery in Tie Yong's eyes was not feigned. Only those who had killed and seen blood could have such disregard for life.
Gao Zhengyang was in a difficult position. His current problem was that his Strength was too low. It was not difficult to win, but it was difficult to beat his opponent into submission.
Moreover, judging from this person's personality, he was ferocious and fierce. There was no way he would admit defeat.
Not to mention a tribe like the Tielin Sect, even in a developed world like Gao Zhengyang's previous world, a fool with a good item would attract all kinds of covetous eyes.
Tie Yong was only fifteen years old. He wasn't considered an adult yet, so he could shamelessly rob her.
If he wanted to settle this once and for all, killing him with a single slash was the best way.
Gao Zhengyang was not afraid of killing people. It was fine for him to steal things, but it would be troublesome for him to kill people. Especially when he had a good father.
Besides, it was a bit exaggerated to kill someone over such a small matter.
However, Tie Yong just stood there arrogantly. His footing was very steady and stiff. A horizontal slash could definitely cut open his stomach.
It was like a girl with her legs spread wide open. If he didn't go up and have a go, he would be letting down this posture.
Gao Zhengyang lowered his eyes and said, "After saying so much, you just want to steal my saber!"
In Tie Yong's view, Gao Zhengyang avoided his gaze entirely because he was afraid.
He was even more disdainful of such cowards. Just as he was about to speak, the squint-eyed youth beside him suddenly said, "We're not stealing, we're just borrowing it for fun …"
Tie Yong glared at Tie Jun. Not only did this guy have slanted eyes, but his mind was also slanted.
Gao Zhengyang was just a coward. There was no need for him to play any mind games.
Tie Yong was a little displeased with Tie Jun's self-righteousness, but he didn't say much.
It was good to have an excuse. If others questioned him, he would have a reason to refuse.
"I won't borrow it."
A cold voice came from behind, directly refusing Tie Yong.
Tie Yong was furious. As he turned around and was about to vent his anger, he saw Yue Qingxue.
She stood there quietly, her snow-white face cold and indifferent, without any expression.
The anger on Tie Yong's face froze. After a moment of bewilderment, he forced a smile and said, "Moon Priest, why are you here?"
Though Yue Qingxue was young, she was already an official priest of the praying hall. She had a high status in the Tielin Sect.
No matter how rude and unreasonable Tie Yong was, he didn't dare be rude to Yue Qingxue.
Yue Qingxue looked at Tie Yong with her cold and deep blue eyes, saying nothing.
Tie Yong felt embarrassed being stared at, so he quickly looked away. "I just wanted to borrow your saber for some fun," he explained dryly.
The other young men didn't dare say anything. They all lowered their heads, not daring to look at Yue Qingxue.
Even Tie Jun, the most eloquent of them all, was behaving like an obedient child.
Yue Qingxue waved her hand, motioning for Tie Yong and the others to leave.
The other young men felt lucky. They lowered their heads and slipped out quickly.
"All of you are useless," Tie Yong cursed under his breath. Tie Yong was quite displeased to be sent away like this. But he didn't dare show it.
On the surface, Tie Yong nodded to Yue Qingxue politely before leaving.
On his way out of the door, Tie Yong turned around and glanced at Gao Zhengyang, his eyes fierce.
"Wait, wait."
Gao Zhengyang didn't want to be meddlesome, but looking at Tie Yong, he knew this wasn't over. To avoid trouble, he said to Tie Yong, "If you want this saber, it's easy. Just defeat me."
One of Tie Yong's feet was already outside the door when he heard this. He turned around and said to Yue Qingxue proudly, "Moon Priest, he challenged me first. Don't blame me."
In Tie Yong's eyes, he couldn't see Gao Zhengyang at all. He only cared about Yue Qingxue's reaction.
"Since Moon Priest is here, she can witness the duel." Tie Yong laughed.
Yue Qingxue glanced at Gao Zhengyang and didn't say anything. She didn't agree with Gao Zhengyang, but she wouldn't interfere with Gao Zhengyang's decision. It didn't matter how stupid the decision seemed.
The Tielin Sect valued warriors and worshiped the strong.
It was a fair duel witnessed by the priest. They didn't need to be responsible for killing or injuring others.
Yue Qingxue didn't object, which made Tie Yong happy. He waved his hand at Gao Zhengyang and said with a nasty smile, "I'm starting to like you. Come on, I won't beat you to death."
Gao Zhengyang waved his hand and said, "Don't be hasty. Not today."
Tie Yong's smile froze. "Are you kidding me?" he demanded sternly.
"I'll find you in seven days. It'll be a fair duel. If I lose, I'll give you the saber," Gao Zhengyang said unhurriedly.
Tie Yong's face was filled with hesitation. Seven days was too long. He wanted to get the saber right now.
But Yue Qingxue was here, so he couldn't use force. After some thought, he said reluctantly, "Fine, we'll meet in front of the praying hall in seven days. If you dare lie to me, I'll chop you into pieces and feed you to the wolves. "
As Tie Yong was about to leave after making the threat, Gao Zhengyang said, "Wait a minute."
"What do you want?" Tie Yong turned around, his eyes red. He couldn't control his anger any longer and was on the verge of exploding.
"What will you do if you lose?"
Gao Zhengyang asked solemnly, as if he didn't notice the twisted and hideous expression on Tie Yong's face.
"How can I lose?!" Tie Yong was even more furious. If Yue Qingxue weren't here, he would have smashed that annoying face of Gao Zhengyang.
"Are you a sore loser?" Gao Zhengyang mocked.
"Fine, I'll give you anything you want if I lose," Tie Yong replied while gritting his teeth.
"You can give me two fat pigs if you lose. Can you give me anything else? "
Gao Zhengyang waved his hand disdainfully and said, "Fine, you can leave now."
Tie Yong wanted to say something, but he was interrupted by Gao Zhengyang. He wasn't good with words, so he couldn't say anything when he was provoked.
"Bang …" Tie Yong, who was almost suffocated to death, fiercely punched the broken wooden door, creating a large hole in it.
Tie Yong clenched his blood-stained fists and left without looking back.
"This little bastard, how dare he vent his anger on my door …"
After Tie Yong left, Old Cang popped out and cursed with a very angry look on his face.
Gao Zhengyang and Yue Qingxue didn't pay attention to him. When Tie Yong barged in, he didn't dare to make a sound. After Tie Yong left, he became arrogant again.
Old Cang felt bored and ran to the side to fiddle with the braised meat.
Yue Qingxue said to Gao Zhengyang, "Tie Yong was born with strong muscles and bones. Although he hasn't opened up his spiritual orifices, his strength isn't inferior to a rank 1 warrior."
Her voice was as cold as ever, and her dark blue eyes were clear and calm. There was no trace of worry or worry, and she didn't blame Gao Zhengyang for acting on his own.
It was as though she was simply stating a fact and didn't have any other intentions.
Gao Zhengyang nodded and said, "I'm not afraid of him."
Yue Qingxue looked deeply at Gao Zhengyang, as though she wanted to see through his thoughts.
Gao Zhengyang had a smile on his face, and his dim yellow eyes were shining, looking unusually confident and calm. This made Yue Qingxue feel a little unfamiliar.
She looked down and said, "I'm going back."
"It's all thanks to your help today." Gao Zhengyang said in a serious tone.
Gao Zhengyang was able to deal with Tie Yong, but Yue Qingxue's words saved him a lot of effort and bought him precious time.
Especially in this sinister environment, Yue Qingxue's help was even more precious.
Gao Zhengyang was truly grateful for Yue Qingxue's help.
"Oh right, since you're here, try the braised meat. Old Cang's cooking isn't bad."
Gao Zhengyang invited enthusiastically.
Old Cang hurriedly came over and smiled apologetically, "Yes, yes, Moon Priest, try it …"
Yue Qingxue shook her head slightly and walked away.
Gao Zhengyang waved his hand and watched her leave.
Old Cang followed behind Yue Qingxue, nodding and bowing as he saw her off.
Gao Zhengyang didn't care about him. He found a big bowl and scooped two big pieces of meat from the pot.
The pork was stewed in the soup, and the skin had a red color. The fat and lean meat were clearly layered, and it carried a rich aroma.
Such a piece of meat was enough to increase one's appetite just by looking at it.
For a young body that didn't have enough to eat for a long time, this was the best delicacy in the world.
Gao Zhengyang took a bite, and the hot and fragrant juice filled his mouth. The taste of the pork and the thick fat completely satisfied the needs of his tongue.
Without much chewing, the meat fell into his stomach.
In just a few bites, the two pieces of meat, which were about half a catty, were all eaten by Gao Zhengyang.
"Wow …"
Gao Zhengyang let out a long sigh of satisfaction. These two pieces of fat made him feel happy and happy.
If it was in his previous life, Gao Zhengyang wouldn't even look at this kind of fat. But here, it was undoubtedly the highest enjoyment.
With something filling his stomach, Gao Zhengyang changed to slowly chewing and swallowing.
Wolfing down food like that was not good for the body.
"How about it? My cooking is amazing, right?"
Old Cang proudly boasted from the side.
Gao Zhengyang slightly curled his lips, "Barely passable." He didn't mean to belittle it, but this kind of cooking was nothing.
If it was in his previous life, he wouldn't even bother to look at this kind of coarse stewed meat.
Old Cang was a little dissatisfied, and he rolled his eyes, "The gate was broken, so you have to compensate me."
"What does that have to do with me?" Gao Zhengyang didn't care about Old Cang's request.
"My gate was broken because of you. Who else should I look for if not you?"
