Chapter 302: Dark Female Pearl and Dust Formation (2/2)
”Chief Wang, Her Royal Highness has something to discuss with His Excellency Zhou. It's none of your business!” After a short confrontation, finding that Wang She had no intention of making way for her, the girl in pink finally spoke in a very cold and very dissatisfied tone.
Instead of immediately answering, Wang She looked at the girl in pink, and glanced at the carriage, then replied, ”Shui Hongyan, I don't care what you come here for, but the accounts between us have to be settled!”
”Yes, the accounts have to be settled, but not now!”
”Now that the princess is here, you should know I'm here, and you dare come. If you're not going to settle accounts with me, what are you doing?” Wang She's voice was bitingly cold, a chilling light glowing in his eyes, and a faint trace of killing intent looming over him.
Just then, the sedan curtain opened, and a sublime face appeared in front of the crowd, ”You must be Chief Wang of the Tian Long Taoism. Here are tributes from Yan-er!”
When Wang She saw Yan-er, the muscles on his face twitched slightly, but he just nodded, ”Princess, you really came. Please forgive me for being rude!”
”Chief, you're being too modest!” Yan-er smiled and gracefully stepped out of the carriage, ”Chief Wang, I don't know the grievances between you and elder sister Shui. But this time she came with me for my business. Please for my sake, don't embarrass her! As for your grievances, how about you two putting them aside until my business is over?”
Wang She winked and looked at Yan-er with a strange look. When he was about to say something, he saw a jade pendant that Yan-er was slowly raising from her waist, and then he was stunned for a moment. Once more, he looked at Yan-er carefully, and finally looked up at Shui Hongyan. He, however, gently moved aside to make way for a passage.
”It's not like you!” Hiding his spirit with the Snake-like Breath Holding Skill, Zhou Bao passed his voice to Wang She and laughed.
”Humph, boy, don't be too excited! This princess is not a girl to trifle with, be careful!”
”Be careful? I don't care what kind of person she is. I don't want to see her now!” Hidden in the dark, Zhou Bao sneered, ”I know she's not a girl to trifle with, so I'll never see her before I resolve the matter with Kunlun Mountain!”
”That's a good idea!” Wang She smiled, and turned suddenly, snapping, ”Wait!”
The carriage stopped again. ”What's the matter, Wang She, you changed your mind?” Shui Hongyan asked in a very cold voice.
”No.” Wang She grinned, ”You're here to find Zhou Bao, right?”
”Yeah, we came here to find His Excellency Zhou. So what?”
”Nothing, I just forgot to tell you, Zhou Bao is very nervous now because he's gonna fight with the experts of Kunlun Mountain. He has been in closed-door training and won't exit training until the opponents come. So you can't find him now!”
Shui Hongyan's gaze suddenly froze. Not knowing whether it was true or false, she turned her eyes to Jiang Xiao and the other people, who were standing at the gate of the town centralization.
”If I'm not mistaken, you must be His Excellency Zhou's right-hand man, Jiang Xiao, His Excellency Jiang!” Yan-er once again stepped out of the carriage, and approached Jiang Xiao and the other people, asking with a smile, ”Please tell me where he has been doing his closed-door training?”
”This...”
Jiang Xiao and the other people were tongue-tied. For a moment, they didn't know what to say.
Zhou Bao had been in closed-door training?
Nonsense, they just saw Zhou Bao this morning. Expose him on the spot? They dared not. Wang She was a Level Nine expert, and few could defeat him. In addition, he had a good relationship with Zhou Bao. If they exposed his lies on the spot, they would suffer.
If the question was not posed by her, even if by Shui Hongyan, the girl in pink, they would answer it without hesitation by following Wang She's meaning.
However, the beautiful girl in front of them was not an ordinary person, but the princess!
The princess, the Emperor's daughter!
A God's favored, honoured girl!
In this world, to experts like Zhou Bao and Wang She, the majesty of the royal family was nothing, but to people who grew up in Jin and later served as officers in Jin's army, like Jiang Xiao, Zhu Ba and Wang Cheng, the majesty was unrivaledly immense.
In spite of the fact that they had followed Zhou Bao in recent years and done many things that seemed to be dismissive of Jin's imperial power, for a while, they did not dare to lie when they were really facing the royal bloodline, the present princess.
Temporarily, they were caught in a dilemma.
Looking at their expressions, Yan-er smiled and then turned to Wang She, ”Chief Wang, you're the Chief of the Tian Long Taoism, the most famous expert in the world. Unexpectedly, you lied to a weak girl!”
”I lied to you? Heehee, that's a joke!” Wang She just laughed grimly, ”Believe it or not!”
Yan-er caught sight of both Wang She's confident expression and the bewilderment of Jiang Xiao and the others. After giving it a thought, she understood the basics. Although her cultivation was not high, she knew that experts, such as Zhou Bao and Wang She, could conceal their spirit and communicate in the dark, while ordinary people could not detect it.
However, she was not resigned to leave now.
Her aim was to persuade Zhou Bao before the people of Kunlun Mountain came, rather than after.
After the people of Kunlun Mountain came, no matter whether Zhou Bao was winning or losing, it was meaningless.
At the thought of it, she felt depressed. She had heard that Zhou Bao was hard to deal with, but she did not expect that he refused to meet her, not giving her any chance. It really frustrated her.
She gently gritted her slivery teeth and looked up at Wang She with a smile, ”Chief Wang, His Excellency Zhou is in closed-door training, and no one can disturb him. But I don't think that includes you!”
”What do you mean? Let me call that guy for you?” Wang She gave her a look and laughed, ”Princess Yan-er, you're really from the Yan Family! You really dare to do everything and think everything! I have a good relationship with Zhou Bao, but he's in trouble now. I'm afraid he really has no mood to meet you. You'd better go back!”
”I come here just for this business!” Yan-er said, ”I know you came here for the same reason. You pissed off Kunlun Mountain, and created a big grudge. Although this grievance isn't easy to resolve, it's not necessary to settle the issue with fighting and killing!”
”Really?” Wang She slightly raised his eyebrows, and knew Yan-er was not only talking to him, but also to the hidden Zhou Bao, ”You mean, you can help this guy to resolve his grievance with Kunlun Mountain?”
”I'll try my best. As for details, I'd like to talk to His Excellency Zhou in person!”
”Talk to him in person? Then I can't help!” Wang She helplessly spread his hands, ”Why don't you let these guys take you to look for him and see if you have any luck. Maybe Zhou Bao might just happen to have exited training!”
”Then, I'll have to bother you, please!” Yan-er smiled and looked at Jiang Xiao and the other two men.
”We really don't deserve this honor!” The three repeatedly replied. Then they led Yan-er and Shui Hongyan into the town centralization.
Seeing them off, Wang She pulled back his gaze.
”What do you think, boy?”
”I have no idea. I'm in closed-door training. Even if the Emperor comes, I won't meet him, not to mention her!” Zhou Bao responded with a sneer. He might have met her if they had come before he asked Green Spirit for advice. Now that he had decided to use the Yin and Yang Dust Formation, and he almost had full confidence to overcome Ning Bo, the First Elder of Kunlun Mountain. In such circumstances, he wished the enemy to come early and fight early. Thus, how could he listen to the princess and reconcile with the enemy?
”Hey, what's the background of the princess? Even you had to give her face.”
