Congratulations, you have defeated your mortal opponent, Liu Changsheng, and due to your opponent's self-surrendered strength, Lucky Bag [Silver] +1."
A prompt sounded in Zhou Heng's mind.
It was a bit of a surprise to him.
He hadn't expected that such a contest would actually be rewarded with a lucky bag.
Originally, he had been prepared to have nothing at all.
This was a pleasant surprise.
He was beginning to look forward to what this Silver Lucky Bag would open to?
Come to think of it, the Silver Lucky Bag he hadn't opened yet with a luck-busting tip.
However, he didn't have the time to open the lucky bag now.
Thousands of gazes were now focused on him.
Liu Changsheng's question just now had lifted the spirits of everyone present.
Everyone was confused.
Yes.
How did you do that!
What the hell just happened?
Why did Willow end up being shocked and retreated so far back when she could have dodged that slash just now?
"Cough."
Just at this time, Steward Wang behind Liu Changsheng suddenly coughed softly.
"Huh?" Liu Changsheng was stunned at first, then his face changed slightly, he was busy turning his words around and smiled at Zhou Heng: "Haha, it was my slip of the tongue, a moment of excitement! Forget the Jianghu rules.
"Then this matter is settled, go to your restaurant and inn, I'll have Steward Wang and Zhao Yuan and the others connect with your side later One down."
You may not ask your opponent's move secrets in public.
This is the rules of the Jianghu.
Liu Changsheng had always been a self-proclaimed jianghu, and agreed with these rules and would follow them in his daily life.
But just now, Zhou Heng's move was so incomprehensible and shocking that he couldn't help but ask questions.
After the reminder of Steward Wang's cough, he immediately realized that he was wrong and changed his words.
But he still felt a bit overwhelmed.
After all, he was the one who had broken the rules of the Jianghu in the first place, and he always felt apologetic in his heart.
Shouldn't some compensation be given?
When Zhao Yuan and the others saw that Liu Changsheng suddenly stopped asking questions, they all came back to their senses, and the three of them looked at each other, hurriedly stepped down from the high platform and arrived in front of Zhou Heng, arching their hands in compliment.
"This Mr. Zhou I've been hearing about for a long time, I didn't expect you to be more powerful than the rumors! Hahaha!"
"That's right, when I heard that you defeated Sun Zhengping, I was very curious, but now that I've seen you, I know that you're really a hero! Awesome!"
"In time, Duke Zhou will be able to make a name for himself and have a bright future!"
The three of them were extremely complimentary to Zhou Heng.
It was a diversion to help cover up his Meng Lang actions just now from Liu Changsheng, as well as to show the attitude of their own martial school.
Although it wasn't a big deal, but if this spread out, after some hearsay, it might have to become-.
Shocker!
The Five Element Sect's true disciple Liu Changsheng, along with his three subordinate martial arts schools' masters, and four Seventh Grade masters forced an unbegotten apprentice to explain the secrets of his moves in public!
Is this a perversion of human nature, or a moral bankruptcy!
A rumor is a lie, a rumor is a lie!
If it really came to that, the reputation of both Liu Changsheng and the three martial arts schools would be damaged.
It would be better to make a good relationship early on to avoid trouble.
Zhou Heng also understood what they meant, so he smiled and responded.
This voice of congratulations and bragging, but the Yu He on the side was stunned, he never dreamed that he would see such a scene.
These three people, Zhao Yuan, could be big figures in Huangtongfu City, and they were usually complimented by others.
Now they were actually complimenting Zhou Heng!
Yu He's heart and mind couldn't help but feel some emotions.
This good friend of his had, at some point, actually reached such a height.
That's amazing!
At this time, the place was in a happy atmosphere, filled with cheerful air all around.
Only the Qian treasurer was at the side with his head bowed, his fists clenched and his teeth clenched, and he was very unhappy inside.
Why is this happening!
Zhou Heng was just an uninitiated apprentice, how could he repel Liu Changsheng!
"What's the point of asking? It must be fake!"
A slight, seemingly hallucinatory voice suddenly sounded in the mind of the Qian treasurer, it had no source, and although it was fleeting, it completely exploded the emotions in his heart.
That's right!
False!
This must be a fake!
Don't talk about the rules!
If he won't explain his moves in detail, he's obviously got something on his mind!
Moneymaster came to his senses, feeling that he had seen all the truth.
It had to be this way!
Absolutely!
This Zhou Heng must have discussed it with Liu Changsheng in advance!
The final choice was actually already internalized!
It was definitely an act just now, and Zhao Yuan and the others were cooperating!
They've joined forces to suppress me!
Get in the shade!
That's right!
That's it!
Master Qian's emotions were now completely up in the air.
Completely unaware of the difference in status between Zhou Heng and Liu Changsheng, there was actually no possibility of cooperation between the two, nor was there a reason for them to jointly suppress him.
This made his heart grow more and more resentful and angry.
"I've worked hard to start from scratch, endured the pressure of being criticized, operated my restaurant and inn in imitation of the Sun family, and strived to be better!
"And I've had Sun's cooks come to me to get better pay and make better food meals, either way, my side should be better!
"I paid a lot of money for this, and I desperately need this list for working capital, which would have been a ten-to-one deal, so why is that?
"Why didn't you choose me, why!
"I'm not convinced, I'm not happy!"
Shopkeeper Qian roared in his heart, but in reality he didn't dare to say a word, and even had to force a smile as he took his leave.
He didn't dare to offend Liu Changsheng.
This was a true disciple of the Five Elements Sect, the son of a fourth-grade expert, he couldn't afford to provoke him.
This made him feel even more suffocated, and resentment grew in his heart.
.....
Wow!
The rain was pouring down like a downpour!
The sky became dark and the shops along the roadside were hung with lanterns.
The road was illuminated dimly.
Qian Budo hadn't brought rain gear and was drenched on the spot on his way home from Wuxiang Martial Arts Center, coinciding with this heavy rain.
This made him think of Zhou Heng and Yu He, who had been retained by Wu Xiang Martial Hall to have lunch together, who definitely wouldn't be caught in the rain and were probably idly watching the rain fall!
Damn it!
"Ahhhh! Why!?" Qian Budo roared at no one in particular, swinging his fist to the sky and venting his anger, only to feel as if he was disgusted by all things in heaven and earth.
But he didn't notice that in the rain, in the dim light of the shops by the roadside, his shadow didn't follow his movements and swing his fist.
Rather, it was as if it was detached from him, independent.
Static-like, motionless!
.....
Chambudo returned home.
Without a word, he burst into his bedroom, didn't even change out of his wet clothes, and sat directly in front of a brass mirror, lit up the light, and watched it shine out.
Wretched!
Soaked to the bone, hair disheveled, rain dripping, a wretched mess.
He grabbed his hair and slowly and slowly lowered his head.
He was trembling all over, and his heart was filled with anger.
To Zhou Heng.
And to Liu Changsheng.
But besides resentment and resignation, what could he do?
He was only a ninth grade martial artist himself.
Can't do anything!
"Aren't you glad?"
Suddenly, some wispy voice rang out, the same one that had been ringing in his head earlier.
"Who is it!?"
Qian Budo was struck with a jolt.
He looked around and found that he was the only one in the bedroom, which puzzled him.
But when he turned back, he looked at the copper mirror again.
But suddenly, he found that-.
In the mirror, I can't believe you keep grabbing your hair and bowing your head!
!!!?
Qian Budo's pupils narrowed abruptly.
Pop!!!
He knocked the brass mirror right over and scrambled to his feet.
"No! What's going on! No, me, where's my shadow!?"
Qian Budo was alarmed.
He even turned around, trying to find his shadow.
But when he turned around, he found that the mirror he had just knocked over had actually returned to its original position!
Only this time, the mirror was empty.
There was nothing left.
Qian Budo hesitated slightly and leaned closer to the copper mirror again, intending to see what was going on.
This time, he saw his own face inside.
It was indeed the exact same face as his, and there didn't seem to be anything unusual.
But then, in the image reflected in the copper mirror, another face identical to his slowly crawled out from behind his left shoulder!
Immediately, this face suddenly grinned, revealing thirty-two white teeth.
"Reluctantly?
"I'll help you!"
