“Zhao Yu, you actually told the envoy…You’re a coward!
Wu Liu couldn’t help but say with a trace of surprise and anger in his eyes.
In his opinion, Zhao Yu’s actions were like two students fighting in private, and the other party turned around and reported the teacher.
However, in Zhao Yu’s eyes, the other party was blatantly provoking him and even treated him as a dog.
He might not be able to beat them now, but if someone could beat them, he might as well let them handle it.
“As expected of Rank 5 fighter, talented!”
A woman who came with Wu Liu said with a smile.
Zhao Yu turned his head and saw a young woman who appeared to be around sixteen or seventeen years old. She had a beautiful face, smooth and delicate skin, and even from a distance, he could catch a faint whiff of her virginal fragrance.
“Are you here to cause trouble for me too?1.
“Don’t misunderstand, I’m not with Wu Liu!” The young woman smiled pleasantly, her eyes curving in a way that made it seem like they were speaking.
“Nice to meet you, I’m He Xiao Xiao. I’m very curious about you, Zhao Yu…” He Xiao Xiao’s beautiful eyes sparkled as she looked Zhao Yu up and down, her expression full of curiosity.
Zhao Yu glanced at her and judged that she didn’t seem to have any malicious intent, so he ignored her.
Then, he looked at Wu Liu and his men again and said, “What about you all?
Are you here to force me to sign the agreement like Wu Liu?!”
“We are not forcing you!”
Wu Liu couldn’t help but emphasize, stepping forward just a bit before Zhao Yu pointed at him and said, “What, even I am also not forcing you. You still want to make a move on me?!”
Wu Liu’s face change again, and he took another step back.
“I’m not with Wu Liu…”
“I’m just here to watch the fun, don’t include me…
Meanwhile, the young men who had followed along quickly distanced
themselves from Wu Liu.
They had originally come to see how Wu Liu humiliated Zhao Yu. Although they had arrived together, they indeed weren’t with Wu Liu.
Zhao Yu naturally knew this, but he asked anyway to avoid anyone else trying to recruit him, which was extremely annoying.
The agreement clearly stated that as a “King Slayer of Rank Five belong to the Holy City,” he wasn’t someone that Blackstone Town or even Moon City could covet.
Yet there were always some people who wanted to try something sneaky.
Didn’t they fear that if the agreement were signed, it would bring trouble to their families?1.
“Make way, make way!”
At this moment, a large group of people violently pushed their way in from outside the arena.
Leading them were five envoys from Moon City, accompanied by the heads and elders of various families.
Their arrival caused such a commotion that the two people in the ring were flustered and didn’t know whether to continue their match. They separated for the time being, each standing at one end of the ring, observing the situation.
Quickly, the group surrounded Zhao Yu.
“Zhao Yu, who tried to force you to sign an agreement?!
The leader, Wu Yong Wei, asked with a serious expression.
He hadn’t expected that in this small place of Blackstone Town, someone would dare to force Zhao Yu to sign an agreement.
Although they hadn’t met Zhao Yu these past few days, they had been keeping an eye on him.
They thought the five major families of Blackstone Town wouldn’t be so unwise. After all, they had treated the previous King Slayer Rank 5 Fighter quite well.
If Zhao Yu was truly forced to sign an agreement, their responsibility would be significant.
Seeing Wu Yong Wei’s arrival, Wu Liu’s face turned even uglier.
Zhao Yu didn’t hesitate and directly pointed at Wu Liu, “Him. He tried to use a second tier divine medicine to make me pledge loyalty to his master and be their family’s dog!”
“What?!”
The whole crowd was in an uproar.
A second tier divine medicine to make a “King Slayer Rank 5” pledge loyalty?
That was too cheap!
What kind of madness was this?!
If it were that easy, the various prominent families would have done it long
ago.
You should know that the value of King Slayer Rank 5 is comparable to that of a Level Four King Beast. It is the core value of the Holy City.
Wu Yong Wei turned his head and saw that Zhao Yu was pointing at Wu Liu, a member of their family.
“Wu Liu, did you coerce Zhao Yu into signing the agreement?!”
“No!”
Wu Liu wasn’t foolish. How could he admit it at this moment?
Zhao Yu sneered, “Do you think everyone here is blind? You came over aggressively, threatening me to pledge allegiance to your master, with a bottle of Tier 2 Divine Medicine. Look at where he’s hanging that medicine…
Only then did people notice a small bottle hanging from a string at the bottom of Wu Liu’s pocket.
This made everyone’s expressions turn odd.
“I can testify. Wu Liu did say that!” He Xiao Xiao stood up with a playful smile, voluntarily backing Zhao Yu.
Some others, who were not afraid of Wu Liu, did the same.
Wu Yong Wei glanced at the others, all juniors from the other four families. “Wu Liu, I ask you again, did you just try to make Zhao Yu pledge allegiance to your master?”
Wu Liu’s face fluctuated between expressions, and finally, he nodded, “Yes!1 He didn’t disdain lying, but he didn’t expect the matter to escalate this far. The eyes of the other four emissaries lit up, as if they had found a good opportunity.
Before they could say anything, Wu Yong Wei quickly inquired, “Was this your personal action, or the intention of your master?!
Wu Liu was also a clever person and quickly understood the meaning behind Wu Yong Wei’s words.
“It was my personal intention. I came back this time because I heard there was a Rank Five King Slayer here and wanted to recruit for my master…
“He didn’t know about this at all. You know he is currently vying for the promotion qualifications of the fourth-year students at Hong Wu Academy and has no time to deal with these things….”
