Finally he added one sentence, “If I can kill Qu Ao, even if I don’t look for Bi Xuan, he ht personally come to look for me; a match that is hard to find It would be too late for Bi Xuan to guard against me!”
The two boys had a sudden inspiration
Kou Zhong said, “I wonder if Old Man Qu and Fu Kid’s duel has already started?”
Meanwhile Man Qing Yuan’s front gate was only five zhang away; the gatekeepers were craning their necks to look at these three latecoht han said

The three have not even reached the gate, the dozen or so guards already welco them Ye this and Ye [master, as in master/servant relationshi+p] that; a totally different experience frohan asked
Someone replied, “Qu Ye has just sent someone to notify us that he will be here by chou hour [1-3alances; they all revealed a knowing s Yuan still under Luoyang Bang’s control?”
AnotherBang’s business Three Daye exposed that traitor, Shangguan Long’s identity, our Gang, frorateful to three Daye!”

Ba Fenghan casually stuffed half an ingot of glistening yellow gold into Cui’er’s hand and spoke indifferently, “So this ti Bo [see Book 1 Chapter 10] who gives the party? Looks like the expense is not a few?”
Cui’er took the gold, her shan’s, she spoke inti the party; he has two si the Bangzhu throne, and celebrating his big birthday Afterwards, his source of revenue will spread far and wide; how could he have time to bother about trivial expenditure?
