Just as Fang Yu was about to fall asleep.
Creak.
The door opened.
"Who..." Fang Yu suddenly turned around.
He saw Xu Zhaopei enter in her bathrobe, her hair still damp, and she sat down on the chair beside Fang Yu’s bed, crossing her legs.
As soon as she crossed her legs, both of her legs were exposed.
"Uh..." Fang Yu frowned; this woman, what drama is she playing at now?
Xu Zhaopei lifted her jade hand to her shoulder, purposely skewing her white robe.
"Fang Yu... you traveled all this way to find me, even if you go back to Jiangzhou, my reputation will be ruined. How will I be able to marry anyone? You promised to marry me before, you even made that promise in front of Jiangzhou’s big shots, and then you suddenly said you don’t want me. What do you expect me to think? How can I show my face there?"
As soon as Xu Zhaopei entered, she started chattering non-stop.
Fang Yu shook his head and said:
"Are you holding a grudge?"
"What grudge? You started by not keeping your promise!"
"Alright, alright... If you don’t mind me having a wife, then I’ll take you as a concubine! After all, not many men would complain about having too many beautiful wives." Fang Yu said with a smile.
Speaking this way, carrying a hint of roguishness, he didn’t believe Xu Zhaopei would still agree.
However...
What Fang Yu didn’t expect was,
Xu Zhaopei stood up, saying, "I don’t believe what you say... If you want to marry me, take me today!"
As she spoke, she began to undress!
"Damn!"
It turns out Xu Zhaopei never considered saying no, she was dead set on being with Fang Yu!
Fang Yu raised his palm, and a burst of Primordial Qi emerged.
Whoosh!
A gust of wind blew.
Xu Zhaopei spun around, her clothes wrapping back around her.
"Hmm?"
Xu Zhaopei showed a look of surprise, "Aren’t I of Ordinary Blood? How could this happen?!"
Fang Yu was also surprised.
He couldn’t help but lift his palm and look at it...
Recalling the recent changes, he shook his head and sighed, "Peipei, stop causing trouble..."
Fang Yu paused, then sat opposite Xu Zhaopei and spoke softly: "Honestly... Huaxia is undergoing drastic changes right now. There are many things even I haven’t heard of. You should know my knowledge and experience... are quite extensive..."
"..."
"Don’t look at me like that... You know me well, you should know, every word and punctuation I use are modest. Not to mention other things, just about knowledge... In today’s world, if I say I’m second, no one dares to claim they’re first."
Pfft...
Xu Zhaopei couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh.
Fang Yu coughed twice, saying, "It’s no fun chatting with you like this."
"You keep talking, I’m listening," Xu Zhaopei laughed.
"Nowadays in Huaxia, Spiritual Energy is reviving... many people, after being touched by the Spiritual Energy, begin to mutate. Martial Artists are everywhere... Cultivators’ cultivation levels are rapidly improving. Many ancient races are awakening... Your Ordinary Blood, probably just awakened not too long ago. Sadly... you’ve left Huaxia for too long, causing your blood’s awakening to be incomplete, Europe after all is not where Eastern people flourish, lacking in Spiritual Energy; living here long-term, your Ordinary Blood will grow weaker and weaker, sooner or later you’ll be completely drained by the vampires here!"
Xu Zhaopei was startled; her face full of surprise as she said, "Is everything you said true?"
"Of course, it’s true... Have I ever lied to you? Plus, this place is still Europe. Being far from Huaxia, even though I’m well-informed, it doesn’t mean I know everything in the world... Your Ordinary Blood, I believe many people will covet it."
Upon hearing this.
Xu Zhaopei wondered, "Ordinary Blood is just ordinary... I’m just an ordinary woman, why would anyone covet me? Not everyone is like Fred."
"Wrong, completely wrong!"
Fang Yu squinted his eyes and said, "It’s precisely because of the Ordinary Blood that it becomes a lethal weapon! Imagine, during a battle between two Supreme Heavenly Rank masters, if one side possesses Ordinary Blood, what would the outcome of the fight be?"
Xu Zhaopei was shocked!
Her heart pounded rapidly.
Fang Yu continued:
"Now, do you still dare to stay in Europe?"
Xu Zhaopei fell silent.
After pondering for a moment, as if thinking of something, she asked, "Speaking of which, you say I am Ordinary Blood, but why weren’t you affected by me just now?"
Fang Yu scratched his head and said:
"I don’t know... Up to now, I still don’t know what path I’m on."
Speaking of this,
Fang Yu sighed lightly.
The road ahead is full of thorns, no one knows what the future will become.
Great changes are happening!
Everything is different from before.
Xu Zhaopei nodded and said, "I understand."
After finishing speaking, she turned around and walked away.
Seeing her leaving just like that, Fang Yu said, "Aren’t you going to stay for the night?"
"Hehe... someone who has the desire but not the guts, dares to provoke me?" Xu Zhaopei couldn’t be bothered with him and left the room.
...
The next morning.
The two rented a car and arrived at the place Fred mentioned.
It was a heavily guarded castle.
There were many guards patrolling around from time to time.
Around the castle—
There were various signs warning any potential tourists.
"Peipei, look at this castle... Even the usual princes and nobles don’t have such luxury, right? If it were in Jiangzhou, how much would this house and land cost?" Fang Yu exclaimed appreciatively.
"Quit rambling! You’re here on business, not to lament over real estate prices," Xu Zhaopei was exasperated.
Fang Yu’s nose twitched, he smiled and said:
"I can already smell the scent of the Curse Root... It seems Fred didn’t lie."
"Do you have a dog’s nose? How can you smell that?" Xu Zhaopei said incredulously.
"You... probably don’t understand the glory of my younger days. Your lipstick is from the YSL Star Collection, you forgot to apply perfume today, but you sprayed Guerlain perfume after your shower yesterday. Also... I smell that you have gum in your bag, what... are you planning to kiss me?"
"You—" Xu Zhaopei swung her pink fist at him, but it was completely ineffectual.
Fang Yu chuckled and said, "Seriously, the Curse Root is inside. It was set up by European Shaman Wizards, surrounded by powerful Restriction Arrays... and I, am an outstanding Grandmaster Level Array Master. Every Array shows unusual phenomena. There has always been a dark cloud lingering over that castle... I’m certain, that’s where the Curse Root is located."
Hearing this,
Xu Zhaopei said:
"So what if the Curse Root is here? Do you really have the confidence to destroy the Curse Root amidst all this tight security?"
"That’s because you don’t know your Brother Yu’s strength... Stick close to me. It’s time for you to understand the true terror of a Cultivator." Fang Yu smiled faintly and walked towards the castle.
"My first lesson when I joined the Kunlun Sect was to understand the combat methods of Cultivators."
Saying so,
Xu Zhaopei quickly passed Fang Yu and walked towards the guards at the entrance.
"Hey..."
A castle guard swung his long halberd angrily and said, "Intruder?"
Fang Yu was astonished and said, "My goodness, who told you to rush in so conspicuously?"
