Fifteen li later, the lush green mountains brought them into the vicinity of the Kunwu Training Camp. Huang Qian-er was not allowed to enter the training camp.
Thus, Wang Chong intended to bring her to the Deflecting Blade Manor.
East of White Tiger Peak, east of the training camp, a magnificent building with overhanging eaves stood on the peak of the mountain. Even from afar, one could feel a strong sense of visual impact from it.
This was Wang Chong's Deflecting Blade Manor.
This wasn't Wang Chong's first time seeing the Deflecting Blade Manor, but this time, he felt something different.
"What's going on? Why is it so noisy?"
Huang Qian-er frowned as she glanced at the mountain peak. Then, she turned to look doubtfully at Wang Chong, confused as to what was going on.
Wang Chong had said that this was his territory, but from the looks of it, the mountain peak seemed to be in a state of chaos.
Wang Chong fell silent. At this moment, he was even more confused than Huang Qian-er.
Deflecting Blade Manor was his private territory. Not only so, the entire mountain was his private territory. Without his permission, no one else was allowed to enter.
This was especially so after Deflecting Blade Manor had built up a great reputation in Shenwei, Longwei, and Kunwu.
Furthermore, he had left Deflecting Blade Manor to Wei Anfang, and he had others assisting him from the side. Everything had always been in order, so why was there a huge commotion at the top of the mountain?
"What's going on here?"
Wang Chong urged his steed forward, leading the way up the mountain.
The closer they got to the mountain peak, the louder the commotion became. Amidst all the commotion, there was a coarse, thunderous voice that was particularly loud.
The other voice that was arguing with it was cold, arrogant, and filled with a sense of superiority. It exuded an aura of superiority, and it could even be said to be overbearing.
However, in the face of that rough voice that was like thunder, it seemed to be completely useless.
"Princess Ni Huang?"
Wang Chong frowned. He could tell that the second voice belonged to a young lady, and it was Wang Chong's nemesis, Princess Ni Huang.
As for the first voice, Wang Chong had never heard it before. Moreover, Wang Chong was certain that there was no such person on Deflecting Blade Mountain.
"What the hell is going on?"
Wang Chong was getting more and more confused. The first voice was clearly that of a troublemaker, but Wang Chong was truly surprised that Princess Ni Huang would help the Deflecting Blade Manor.
Gallop! Gallop! Wang Chong urged his horse forward. In front of the mountain gate of Deflecting Blade Manor, a commotion broke out. Everyone was focused on those two, and no one noticed Wang Chong and Huang Qian-er, except for one person.
"Young master?"
Nie Yan's eyes lit up as he looked down the mountain in surprise. Standing at the side of Deflecting Blade Manor, he noticed that someone was approaching. He had only taken a casual glance, but to his surprise, it was actually Wang Chong.
Without the slightest hesitation, Nie Yan turned around and galloped toward Wang Chong, as though he had found his savior.
"Young master, you're finally here. I'll call Gao Feng and Wei Anfang over!"
Nie Yan rushed up to Wang Chong's horse with a delighted look on his face.
"Calm down!"
Wang Chong waved his hands to stop Nie Yan.
"Tell me what's going on first. How did the Deflecting Blade Manor end up in such a state? "
Honestly speaking, Wang Chong was a little disappointed that the Deflecting Blade Manor had fallen into such a state during his absence.
"This …"
Nie Yan was taken aback. He scratched his head awkwardly.
"This … Actually, we don't know either. Around two days ago, a fellow suddenly appeared at the foot of the mountain. His strength and physique are inconceivably powerful. As soon as he arrived, he said that he wanted to meet young master, and his mouth was filled with vulgarities. A few of our brothers in the courtyard couldn't stand by and fought him, but they weren't a match for him at all. Even if all of us worked together, we still couldn't defeat him.
"We already told him that you're out on a mission, and we told him to come back in a while. But he just refused to leave. He even said that he wanted to tear down our Deflecting Blade Manor. On the first day, he caused a huge ruckus inside, and on the second day, he caused even more trouble, such that even the Chess Hall was unable to continue operating. Today, he's gambling on the gates, unable to enter or leave.
"I've reported this matter to Brother Zhao Jingdian, and he came to take a look. He said that this fellow is simply too powerful, and that we aren't a match for him at all. It's best not to provoke him for the time being. Everything will have to wait until young master comes back. — — Young master, you don't recognize him either? "
Nie Yan looked at Wang Chong.
He had thought that everything would be fine once Wang Chong returned, but from the looks of it, it seemed like Wang Chong didn't recognize him either!
The surroundings were quiet, and even Huang Qian-er turned to look at Wang Chong.
Even though this was a matter of the Wang Clan, it had nothing to do with her. But this was simply too much of a blunder. Someone had come knocking on their door, yet they didn't even know who the other party was.
Wang Chong fell silent. Upon hearing Nie Yan's words, Wang Chong's first thought was that the Yao Clan and King Qi were up to no good, intentionally picking a fight with him. However, he quickly rejected the idea.
It hadn't been long since the ambush on the official road happened, so the Yao Clan and King Qi should have restrained themselves a little. If they were wise, they wouldn't cause a ruckus at this moment, let alone in such a crude manner.
But if it wasn't the Yao Clan and King Qi, who could it be?
Even if Wang Chong was beaten to death, he couldn't think of any enemies he had offended.
"Let's go and take a look!"
Without alerting anyone, Wang Chong urged his steed forward, heading toward the center of the conflict.
"You bastard! Hurry up and get out of my way! I'm a princess! Aren't you afraid that I'll punish you? "
"Hehe, you're trying to scare me! So what if you're a princess? Since when did the laws of the Tang dynasty state that blocking a gate was a crime? Tell me, I'll broaden my horizons! "
"You're truly infuriating me! You bastard, to think that you don't even have any respect for the royal family. Just based on this, I can send you to the borders and exile you for three thousand li! "
"Hmph, go ahead and do it then. I'd be more than happy to do so. Do you think that I wanted to come here? … "
…
Seated on the back of his horse, Wang Chong was able to see far into the distance. With a glance, he saw a muscular man with bulging arms blocking the entrance of the Deflecting Blade Manor.
His arms were spread open, forming a '大' shape, blocking most of the entrance.
Wang Chong had never seen such a tall and muscular man before. His entire body was massive, and his muscles bulged like steel, making him look incredibly sturdy.
Everyone else standing before him seemed to have shrunk in size, like a child standing before an adult.
"He's tall!"
Upon seeing the muscular man, Wang Chong couldn't help but jump in excitement. It wasn't as if Wang Chong had never seen a muscular man before. The leader of the Iron Cloak Highwaymen, Iron Cloak Li, was one such figure.
But even Iron Cloak Li felt like he was a head shorter than the other party.
"2.1 meters, no, he's at least 2.2 meters tall! He's really tall! "
Wang Chong was astonished.
The Tang dynasty was vast, and there were plenty of men who could grow up to 1.7 meters tall. 1.8 meters tall was already rare, and 2.2 meters tall was practically unheard of.
This was a colossus, and coupled with his imposing aura, it was truly a daunting sight to behold.
As for the person opposite him …
Glancing at Princess Ni Huang and the old nanny beside her, Wang Chong finally understood why Princess Ni Huang was so kind as to help him this time.
Princess Ni Huang had made up her mind to follow him closely so that she could find out the reason why he knew of Li Yichao's defeat and dig out the non-existent intelligence network under him.
However, as a noble princess of the royal family, there was no way she would go on such a dirty, tiring, and exhausting mission.
Thus, she had to occupy a seat in the Deflecting Blade Manor and report in every day.
It was no wonder that Princess Ni Huang would fly into a rage when the gigantic man stood in her way.
"Gongzi!"
Suddenly, a voice sounded from the crowd. Wei Anfang's eyes lit up. He immediately noticed Wang Chong, who was a head taller than the rest, on the back of the steed.
Weng!
Wei Anfang's words of 'gongzi' swiftly caught everyone's attention. Hualala, it was as though a pebble had been thrown into a calm lake. From all directions, countless gazes immediately followed Wei Anfang's line of sight.
"Gongzi!"
"Gongzi!"
"Gongzi!"
"Great! Everyone, look! Gongzi is finally back!"
…
In the surroundings, the eyes of the enraged crowd lit up in excitement at the sight of Wang Chong on horseback.
Even Princess Ni Huang and the gigantic man, who were at the center of the conflict, turned to look.
In an instant, Wang Chong became the center of attention.
In the Deflecting Blade Manor, Wang Chong was the undisputed leader of the group. After being tormented by the burly man for the past few days, everyone was overjoyed.
"Brat, you're finally here!"
Harrumphing coldly, Princess Ni Huang moved to the side without any hesitation. Since that brat was here, she would let him deal with him himself. She didn't want to be his shield.
"Your Highness, it has been a long time."
With a bitter smile, Wang Chong knew that he couldn't hide it any longer. Thus, he leaped off his steed. The others behind him followed suit.
"Hahaha, brat, you're finally here! — — "
At the same time, a thunderous voice echoed. At the entrance of the Deflecting Blade Manor, the eyes of the gigantic man lit up. He left the entrance and strode toward Wang Chong.
"Hua!"
Seeing the burly man walk over, the surrounding crowd hurriedly retreated as if they had encountered the plague. In the past three days in the Deflecting Blade Manor, they had come to understand how formidable the burly man was.
When a group of people went up, none of them were a match for him. None of them were a match for him. Every single one of them had been beaten black and blue.
Seeing him walk over, no one dared to stop him.
A moment later, the crowd opened up a path for Wang Chong.
"Hehe, you must be Wang Chong, right? I don't care which clan you come from. Since you transferred me here from the northwest, I won't let you off! I, Li Siye, will never serve as a dog slave for scions like you! "
