Jiang Ya saw that Fang Yuan had the intention to leave, and quickly stopped him, "Lord Fang Yuan, a wise man knows better than to fight when the odds are against him. This Man Shi is very strong, he was once able to escape from Bai Ning Bing's hands, he cannot be underestimated. "
"Publicizing his defeat as glory, what is there to fear from such a person?" Fang Yuan laughed lightly, and pressed his hand on Jiang Ya's shoulder, "Just sit here and drink."
"Lord …" Jiang Ya opened his mouth, wanting to persuade him again, but met Fang Yuan's cold gaze.
The coldness in Fang Yuan's eyes made his heart shudder.
He was tongue-tied, and was at a loss as to what to do as he was pressed back onto his seat by Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan took a few steps, going around the screen and into the hall.
At the center of the table, a Rank two Gu Master had one foot on the bench, and the other on the table.
His body was short, but his waist and arms were thick and strong. A thick black beard extended down from his cheeks, converging at his chin. His whole body seemed to be emitting a fierce aura.
On the ground nearby, there were broken wine jars. Most of the wine had seeped into the ground through the cracks between the bricks.
Only two to three puddles of wine were on the surface of the bricks, or in the broken wine jars.
The old man, who was the shopkeeper, hung his head very low and apologized while trembling with fear, "Sir, please don't be impatient. If you are not satisfied with this jar of wine, I will give you another jar of our best wine for free!"
"Hmph, I don't want wine! Your wine is so disgusting, why are you still opening a tavern. Compensation, you must compensate! I was originally in a good mood, but you guys ruined it just like that. You have to compensate at least five hundred pieces of Yuan stone! "Man Shi demanded an exorbitant price.
"This is already the third time, it seems this tavern has offended someone."
"Sigh, I better not come here to drink anymore."
"Leave, leave quickly. When Gu Masters fight, we mortals suffer. "
The surrounding people left their seats, and only a few Gu Masters sat still, chatting.
"I heard this tavern is Fang Yuan's. Who is it that doesn't like him? "
"Oh! She was the one whose parents had died. The kid who inherited the inheritance and became rich overnight? "
"No wonder some people don't like it. Even if it was me, I would also be jealous. You see, we're working so hard just to earn these riches. To live a peaceful life. Fang Yuan is just a newbie. What right does he have to obtain these things? "
"Not bad. Even if it was his ancestor's sinister intentions, that was then and this was now. The family's resources were limited. Everyone was only given a small amount. How could he, a mere C-grade talent, enjoy so much wealth at such a young age? How preposterous! "
"Man Shi isn't trying to provoke him into betting, is he? If it's really a Gu battle, I might really be able to get a piece of fat meat. "
Someone shook his head. "Hey, do you think those elders are fools?"
Someone nodded. "But that might not be the case. Haven't you all understood the family's policies after all these years? In a way, it is tacitly allowing us to fight. Powerful people deserve more resources, don't they? If the weak couldn't keep their property, they could only part with it. Everything is for the family's strength! "
"Hmm, that makes sense. But let's watch first. This water is a bit deep. It is said that Man Shi has a retired senior behind him. "Someone lowered his voice and said.
"What are you leaving for, stop right there, no one can leave!" On the table, Man Shi suddenly shouted.
Those mortal drinkers were already at the door. They didn't dare to disobey the Gu Master's words and immediately stood there in silence. Many passersby also noticed the commotion here and stopped at the door to watch.
"As expected, they are purely here to cause trouble!" Fang Yuan looked at this scene with an indifferent expression. His eyes flashed with a cold light.
Man Shi noticed him.
"Hmm? You are that Fang Yuan. Junior, you opened a good tavern, but you're trying to swindle my money. But seeing that you are a newbie, I will give you a chance to apologize in front of everyone. Otherwise, people will say that I, Man Shi, used my status as a senior to bully a junior like you. Hahaha! "
Man Shi laughed: "As long as you apologize and bow, I will let this matter go. I am a man of my words! "
He beat his chest so hard that it made a loud thump. He showed a forthright attitude, but his intentions couldn't be hidden from the surrounding Gu Masters.
"Man Shi's move is sinister."
"That's right. If Fang Yuan really apologizes, he won't be able to raise his head in the future. Anyone would rush over, step on his head, and bully him for his weakness. But if he doesn't apologize, this is disregarding his seniors, arrogant and unruly, he will be ostracized by the entire circle. "
"That's right, he is in a dilemma … oh my, fuck!!"
The Gu Masters whispered, and suddenly, someone's mouth opened wide enough to swallow a duck egg.
The other spectating Gu Masters were not much better off.
Someone's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
Someone spat out the wine in his mouth.
Someone looked on with incomparable shock, like a statue.
They had been staring at the scene, wanting to watch a good show.
In the end, not only did Fang Yuan fulfill their wishes, he even gave them a huge 'surprise'. The young man waved his hand and a moonblade flew out.
Swoosh!
This was the Moonglow Gu's moonblade!
The eerie blue moonblade flew in the air, as big as a washbasin. Along the way, a square table was sliced in half like tofu.
"Huh?!" Man Shi's laughter stopped abruptly. His pupils shrunk as the moonblade grew larger in his eyes.
In the blink of an eye, the eerie blue moonlight shone on his face, revealing every strand of his beard.
A strong aura of death assaulted him. At the crucial moment, Man Shi lost his composure and shouted: "Monolith Gu!"
Immediately, his whole body shone with a dark grey light. His skin bulged, growing into rock skin.
But before the rock skin had fully grown, Fang Yuan's moonblade had already imprinted itself on his chest.
With a soft sound, the rock skin split open, and a long, slanted wound appeared on Man Shi's chest. Blood spurted out like a stream.
"Ah —!" An intense pain assaulted his nerves, and Man Shi screamed in fear, his voice filled with shock and disbelief.
He had never expected that Fang Yuan would attack without saying anything.
He really dared to attack!
In the village, he directly used a Gu worm. Against his own clansman?!
Not to mention Man Shi, even the other spectators were flabbergasted. A look of disbelief.
"What's going on, is this kid crazy?!"
"He didn't say anything and just attacked! He's not afraid of killing Man Shi. He was rejected by the punishment hall, and now he has to pay with his life? "
"Young people are so impulsive."
"Did you see that moonblade just now? That is not the Moonlight Gu, but the Moonglow Gu. To think that Fang Yuan has already refined the Moonglow Gu. "
"Fang Yuan, what the hell are you doing?!" Man Shi stood on the square table, shouting with a malevolent expression, his voice like thunder.
His skin bulged, growing into a rock skin and becoming even thicker. The wound was also covered by the rock skin. However, large amounts of blood still flowed out, but it was no longer gushing out like before.
Fang Yuan's expression was cold and indifferent as he slowly walked over. He did not speak, or more accurately speaking. To be precise, he did not speak.
He responded to Man Shi with a movement.
Another moonblade!
Swoosh.
The Crescent Blade flew across the short distance.
"You!" Man Shi did not have time to speak, and quickly raised his arms to protect his head and chest.
Both of his arms were covered with thick, dark gray stones, as if they were carved from stone. They were thick and strong.
The moonblade imprinted on his arms, creating a deep wound. A deep gash was carved out, and countless small stones splashed out.
The moonblade's strength caused Man Shi's body to lean backwards.
His body was covered in thick rocks, causing his weight to increase sharply. Finally, the square table he was stepping on could not bear the weight, and with a crack, it completely collapsed.
Man Shi could not stand steadily, and fell to the ground, revealing a flaw in his defense.
Fang Yuan walked slowly, his eyes flashing with a cold light. Grasping the flaw, he shot another moonblade.
The moonblade cut through the air, creating a whistling sound.
Man Shi quickly stretched out his hands, but he underestimated Fang Yuan's battle experience. Although the moonblade was a straight line attack, it was slanted at a crafty angle, not completely perpendicular to the ground.
Man Shi's arm blocked half of the moonblade, but the other half was imprinted on his chest.
Immediately, his injuries worsened, and large amounts of blood flowed out of Man Shi's chest.
"Is, is he going to kill someone?" The Rank two Gu Masters who were sitting on their seats could not sit still, and stood up.
The mortals did not even dare to breathe. They looked at each other in fear and excitement.
The Gu Masters killing each other had triggered something in their hearts that had been suppressed for a long time.
Man Shi breathed roughly, trying to get up, but it pulled at his wounds. The intense pain caused him to fail, and with a bang, he fell down again.
Fang Yuan walked over slowly.
Man Shi had lost a large amount of blood, his face pale. He looked at Fang Yuan in fear. Fang Yuan's cold and slow steps approached him, giving him a huge pressure.
"Fang Yuan, you can't kill me! If you kill me, you will be arrested by the punishment hall!! "Man Shi's legs scraped against the ground, moving backwards.
His blood flowed out, following his body, drawing a bright trail on the green brick floor.
Everyone was silent.
Everyone was stunned by Fang Yuan's cold aura, holding their breaths as they watched. No one felt that Man Shi was useless, without any style. If it were them, they would not be any better than Man Shi.
Fang Yuan walked in front of Man Shi, raised his leg, and fiercely stomped on the wound on Man Shi's chest.
Man Shi sucked in a breath of cold air from the pain.
Fang Yuan stomped on the ground again, and Man Shi felt like he was being rammed by a wild boar, trampling on his body as it continued to trample over him.
He could not bear it anymore, and screamed in pain. Even with the protection of the thick rock skin, his chest was being crushed by Fang Yuan, and blood flowed out of his wound.
More importantly, Fang Yuan's right hand was covered in a layer of eerie blue moonlight, condensed and not released.
This was the sign of the moonblade's attack. Man Shi was anxious, and did not dare to move.
"You, you can't kill me!" He stared with his eyes wide open, and shouted with difficulty.
"I won't kill you." Fang Yuan said his first words since he appeared.
His tone was very calm. In the dead silence of the wine tavern. His words clearly entered everyone's ears.
"But I can cripple you, break one of your arms, or one of your thighs. According to the clan rules, I will have to compensate you with a large amount of Yuan stone, and I will be imprisoned. But you, you can only spend the rest of your life in bed, your disability has greatly reduced your battle strength. You can no longer go out to carry out missions. Do you think this kind of result, can you accept it? "Fang Yuan looked down at Man Shi, and said slowly.
A cold voice entered Man Shi's ears. It made his heart stop, and his body trembled.
He opened his mouth, and gasped for breath. His mind became even more chaotic. The power of Fang Yuan's foot made him feel like he was being pressed by a huge rock, and he felt that breathing was becoming more difficult.
"Damn it, damn it! If I had taken precautions, if I hadn't been caught off guard, and been seriously injured from the start, how could it be ….. eh! "
Man Shi's voice stopped abruptly, because his gaze met Fang Yuan's eyes.
He laid on the ground, and looked up.
Fang Yuan's eyelids were half closed, and his dark eyes were looking down at him.
What a pair of eyes.
If it was filled with killing intent, Man Shi would not be afraid. But this pair of eyes. It was filled with a kind of coldness.
This coldness was arrogance towards reality, it was disdain towards the people of the world, it was trampling on life, and it was abandoning the rules!
"This pair of eyes. This pair of eyes … "Man Shi's pupils shrunk to the size of a needle, and the deepest memories in his heart surfaced.
That was the nightmare of his life!
Two years ago, a moonlit night in the bamboo forest.
A white clothed youngster, similarly stepping on him.
"Damn it, damn it! If I had refined the Monolith Gu, how could you have broken my defense? "Death was approaching. He screamed hysterically, filled with unwillingness.
"Oh, since it is like this, I will not kill you this time." The white clothed youngster's lips curled, showing an interested smile, "After you return to the village, cultivate well, and refine the Monolith Gu, then we will fight. Hehehe, I hope in the future, you can add some excitement to my life. "
Saying so, the youngster lifted his foot, letting him go.
Man Shi breathed roughly, lying on the ground. He did not expect such a sudden turn of events.
He stared blankly at the white clothed youngster.
The youngster looked at him like he was looking at an ant, speaking indifferently, "Still not scramming?"
Man Shi's body trembled, and he quickly got up, stumbling as he escaped.
This white clothed youngster was none other than Bai village's number one genius, Bai Ning Bing. Back then, he was only Rank two, but he could already kill a Rank three clan elder!
Man Shi managed to escape with his life, and thus his reputation rose.
In these two years, Bai Ning Bing's face had already become a blur in his memory. The only thing he remembered was his eyes.
That pair of indifferent and indifferent eyes, high and mighty, hid a pride that mortals could not hope to understand.
To think …
To think!
To think that he would see this pair of eyes in his own village!
At this moment, Man Shi's heart was filled with fear, the unwillingness and anger in his heart disappeared, and he had no fighting spirit left.
Man Shi's change in expression was seen by Fang Yuan.
The youngster was slightly surprised, not expecting this Man Shi to be so useless.
But, forget it … he is just a coward.
Fang Yuan had already achieved his goal, and he loosened his foot, "You can scram now."
Man Shi seemed to have heard the voice of an immortal, and with a pale face, he stumbled out of the tavern.
Everyone was speechless.
Fang Yuan stood on the spot, looking around.
The surrounding Gu Masters, some Rank one and some Rank two, all avoided his line of sight.
The shopkeeper and the waiters looked at him with shock, excitement and worship. Who doesn't want a strong backer?
Behind him, Jiang Ya was dumbstruck.
He heard the commotion and ran out, only to see the scene of Fang Yuan chasing Man Shi away.
That was Guyue Man Shi …
He was extremely shocked, and his gaze towards Fang Yuan had already changed.
Jealousy had already disappeared.
At this moment, Jiang Ya suddenly understood why Fang Yuan had such achievements.
"Because he could not keep up, he was not the same type of person as me!"
