48 The Capitals Young Master (2/2)

”Such a stupid woman, to think she could not even see Mount Tai in front of her!”

”She is just a brainless idiot, to think that she did not consider her future at all!”

”She might look good, but something is wrong with her mind to turn down Elder Brother's offer.”

”I am more enraged about that young man who dared to go against Young Master!”

Everyone had been busy discussing Luo Zhirou and trashing her, but the moment the last voice spoke, everyone quieted down.

A dangerous gleam appeared in the eyes of the young man, and suddenly all his companions exploded with noise.

”Yes, who does he think he is?!”

”To think he had the guts to stand up against our hero!”

”Elder Brother will become a Primordial Beast Hunter as great as Xiao Lei in the future, who is he to stand against him?”

”Does he not respect the authority of the capital?! Does he think that because he is some noble-born child from some backwater place, he can do whatever he wishes here in the capital and act so unbridled in front of our elder brother?!”

The more they spoke, the worse the light within the young man's eyes turned. He clearly became more and more agitated, yet on the surface, on his face, not even one of his emotions were shown.

Shen Mu was in an awkward position. He wanted to enter the inn already, but he was aware that if they started leaving now, then that would be even more insulting than what he had done previously.

To the side, Xue Wei was standing casually, leaning against the fence of the road leading into the inn, a slight smile on his face.

Xue Wei's uncle was renowned throughout the entire Heping Kingdom. When it came to having a background, no matter how great the background of this young lord was, it could not compare to his.

Although this highborn boy was a ninth layered Ordinary Warrior, it had still taken him around four years to reach this rank, while Xue Wei had entered the ninth layer Ordinary Warrior rank after roughly half a year.

So regarding talent, Xue Wei towered over this child. And when it came to strength, Xue Wei had never feared anyone at the same rank as himself. He did not fear this child either.

While the group belonging to the young master still had yet to notice Xue Wei, the experienced experts had already seen him, and their eyes were twinkling with excitement.

Xue Wei had a calmness that none of the other youngsters possessed. It was clear that he had something backing him, as to whether this was strength or an outstanding background, these people did not know, but they could not wait to see what was happening.

Xue Wei looked at Shen Mu, who turned around and looked at him at the same time. There was a helpless look in Shen Mu's eyes. Seeing this, Xue Wei decided that it was time for him to make a move.

He straightened his back and coughed so hard that all of the people who had been speaking were silenced instantly.

”How audacious!” someone exclaimed, shocked from the group around the young master. ”To think you have the gall to interrupt us!”

”That is a good joke,” Xue Wei laughed as he looked at the speaking person right in the eye and released a sliver of the killing intent that he had suppressed deep within his body.

The moment this young boy looked into Xue Wei's eyes, he became tongue-tied. He said nothing, his eyes opened wide and sweat pooled on his face.

He was frightened. He felt that he was standing in front of a Primordial Beast in its original shape that was just waiting to gobble him up. He was so scared that he peed himself and lost consciousness right away. The illusion brought forth by the killing intent was indeed too frightening for him.

The young master frowned, surprised at heart, when he saw that Xue Wei knocked one of his men out with a mere glance, but he was not the only one who was surprised.

”What a dense killing intent! This kid must have climbed out through a cave of corpses!” one of the experts exclaimed in shock, and the others nodded their heads.

”So the killing intent can be used this way,” Xue Wei thought to himself, full of surprise by how useful this hard to control emotion truly could be to him.

The youngsters who had come with Xue Wei were not surprised. Xue Wei had created miracle after miracle in front of them, so to make a sixth layer Ordinary Warrior collapse with a glimpse was not too shocking.

”You there, young master,” Xue Wei looked at the young master. Although he had at first thought this boy was similar to Li Jian, he had realized that this young master had some principles that Li Jian did not. Where Li Jian would have forced himself onto the woman on the street, this young man would never do something that obvious.

Still, it was clear he was itching to teach Shen Mu a lesson from talking back to him, and this alone was reason enough for Xue Wei to step in.
