This method of fighting was very bold, but it was also very clever. All along, when facing an opponent with a strength similar to his own or even stronger than his, Shen Kai had always been able to win. It was not because he was unrivalled, but because Shen Kai was not only a prodigy in martial arts, but also a genius in battle. He could grasp every little detail of the battle and think of the best way to battle and grow in every battle and competition.
"His strength may be slightly inferior to mine, but he's very smart. I don't know how long I can keep an intelligent person like him a secret." Yi Wu said worriedly.
"The damage is not enough to destroy him. I can take it, and he can, and if not, take it. From that day onwards, he is destined to walk the same path as me. " The mysterious man's face was hideous, as if he had recalled some painful memory, and his eyes turned crimson.
The night was late.
Shen Kai sat alone on the roof of the Xianhua House. Although the winter had passed, the wind of late at night still made people shiver. The rooftops of Xianhua House allowed one to view the scenery of the imperial capital of Yangzhou City. At night, Yangzhou City was not bustling with noise, with no one coming and going, only full of stars and moonlight, with only myriad of lanterns.
Shen Kai liked to be quiet. He sat there quietly and thought about it quietly.
The sound of the roof pulled Shen Kai's train of thoughts back to reality. Someone came up, and when he looked back, he saw Jin Miaowan tiptoeing towards him.
"You don't know martial arts, if you are a little bit careless you will fall down." Seeing Jin Miaowan crawling unsteadily, Shen Kai asked worriedly.
Sure enough, just as he finished speaking, Jin Miaowan's legs went soft and his body was on the verge of collapsing to the ground.
Shen Kai, who was constantly watching her, acted quickly. With his light movement technique, he pulled his into his embrace, because it was too sudden and Shen Kai did not think much of it.
"They said it was dangerous!" Shen Kai frowned and berated.
Jin Miaowan was so frightened that her face turned pale, and then, she was scolded by Shen Kai. In an instant, she was so wronged that she wanted to cry.
"Because of me?" Shen Kai laughed bitterly, and even pushed the blame onto himself. Seeing Jin Miaowan's wronged look, Shen Kai did not continue the topic.
When Jin Miaowan stabilized her stance, Shen Kai gently released his hand. But just as his hand was about to leave, Jin Miaowan grabbed onto his sleeve again. I... "I'm afraid."
Shen Kai, who didn't know whether to laugh or cry, could only let her hold him. He was worried that if she accidentally fell down again, he was here to protect Jin Miaowan. If something were to happen to Jin Miaowan while she was on the roof, then Shen Kai, the Escort guard, would become the laughingstock of the entire Escort Realm.
"What are you doing up here?" Shen Kai asked.
"I want to talk to you about Yi Wu." Jin Miaowan said.
"Yi Wu?"
"Yes, she insisted on following you, perhaps because she had a purpose to get close to you." Jin Miaowan said.
"Purpose? I am extremely charming, and she has only fallen before my heroic bearing. What is her purpose? " Shen Kai feigned narcissism as he spoke, only showing the whites of his eyes when he heard this.
"In my opinion, this matter isn't that simple." Jin Miaowan said in a serious tone.
Shen Kai naturally knew that it was not that simple, but it was as if he was looking at the clever Jin Miaowan who could guess anything, so she pretended not to care, and said: "Then tell me, what is her motive?"
"I …" Jin Miaowan was at a loss for words, unable to answer.
"Don't overthink things. We'll deal with it when it's time to do battle, and we'll deal with it when the time comes. This is not something that you need to worry about. Don't forget that we still have five Taixing Escort Office s hiding in the dark. " Shen Kai consoled. Although he said it easily, he did not look down on Yi Wu that much.
"You didn't say that because you were bewitched by her beauty, did you?" Jin Miaowan looked at Shen Kai's deep eyes, trying to find some clues.
Shen Kai was so angry that he did not know whether to laugh or cry. I comforted you out of good intentions, and you even doubted me.
"If you don't say anything, then it's silent. You really are confused by her." Jin Miaowan acted as if she was grabbing onto Shen Kai's tail.
"If it wasn't for you insisting that I enter the arena, would this have happened?" That day, Jin Miaowan had let him go up to the competition arena in Qinwu Pavilion, and that was what happened afterwards. Now, he was blaming himself for being bewitched by Yi Wu.
Jin Miaowan was rendered speechless by the retort, and continued in a delicate voice, "I didn't ask you to go up onto the fighting stage to pick apart the flowers and grass, you provoked her, so you are responsible for whatever happens to her. "Humph!"
Jin Miaowan's coquettish words made Shen Kai speechless. No matter how smart a girl was, it didn't make sense to argue with her.
On the second day, the Xianhua House released news that Yi Wu and Liu Xuxu were going to perform together and play the guqin, causing Yi Wu to resonate with them.
When this news came out, the Xianhua House became the center of attention once again. Every single one of the Eight Existences of Huai Ye s were all rare beauties, and in the past, a family of flowerbed s had attracted countless people who had a beauty like her as their Courtesan Belle. There had never been two Courtesans performing together, and the release of this news by the Xianhua House naturally shocked the men of the imperial city.
Of course, the only ones who were shocked were not just the wandering men, because the main customers of Xianhua House were not only the men, but also the renowned and powerful families. There were many famous and rich girls in Yangzhou city who were unsatisfied with the Eight Existences of Huai Ye's beauty, but that was the ranking list set by influential people, they thought themselves to be noble, and naturally did not compete with her in public. Hearing that Yi Wu and Liu Xuxu would be performing in the Xianhua House, they could not help but come over to take a look.
The Xianhua House was already packed with people, including nobles, renowned courtesans, hedonistic sons, and profligate literati … There were people of all statuses, and all sorts of people. This had to surprise Shen Kai and Liu Xuxu's charm.
In the anticipation of the crowd, Liu Xuxu carried the zither and stepped onto the stage, lightly nodded her head, then sat down to touch the zither. The zither music sounded out, and as the red shadow slowly fell from the sky above the Xianhua House's hall, it was accompanied by a few women carrying baskets of flowers and scattering red petals all over the second floor, causing the red shadow to fall slowly like a fairy in a painting.
As the zither music flowed, the beautiful woman twisted her waist and danced with the red caltrops.
This was the first time Shen Kai had seen Yi Wu dance. Although Shen Kai did not know how to dance, with just a glance, he was deeply attracted by the dance and found it hard to look away.
Even Shen Kai, who had an astonishing self-control, was in such a state, not to mention the normal people, even the Golden Maiden, who originally wanted to compete with Yi Wu, felt ashamed upon seeing her excellent dancing skills, and no longer had the heart to compare.
Seeing Shen Kai staring at the dancing figures on the stage, Jin Miaowan became angry, gritted her teeth and said angrily, "Hmph! "You're still saying that you're not being bewitched by it? Just watching it makes your eyeballs drop to the ground!"
"His strength may be slightly inferior to mine, but he's very smart. I don't know how long I can keep an intelligent person like him a secret." Yi Wu said worriedly.
"The damage is not enough to destroy him. I can take it, and he can, and if not, take it. From that day onwards, he is destined to walk the same path as me. " The mysterious man's face was hideous, as if he had recalled some painful memory, and his eyes turned crimson.
