Chapter 637: Old Trees Also Bloomed
"Senior Baihe...why haven't you taken action yet? Are you worried about damaging the tree?"

After hearing these words, Qiu Chan was still at a loss, but Master Baihe...his face suddenly turned red!
The dignified master of Ziqi Xianfeng Temple is now famous!
White smoke seemed to come out of her head, her eyes were as big as copper bells, and her silver teeth ground out a voice as hard as steel: "How! Do! You! Know!?"

"It's expensive, and the cost is high, but it's not like I can't afford it as a junior."

Fu Qingzhou narrowed his eyes and smiled: "After all, you didn't hide your story from others back then... It's just that time has passed and no one remembers it."

An extremely dangerous aura emanated from Master Baihe's body; it was a true murderous intent!
"Yes, Qianfang Baixiaolou?!"

She asked, gritting her teeth.

Qiu Chan's eyes had already lit up, and she was tossing wildly between her master and Fu Qingzhou.

Is there some gossip here that I don't know about?!

Master’s face can actually turn as red as a shrimp!
Baihe Zhenren obviously noticed the gaze of his disciple, turned his head suddenly, and said sternly: "No curiosity!"

Qiu Chan raised her eyes and pretended to look carefully at the white clouds in the sky, but she couldn't hide the smile on her face.

Although she didn't know what secrets her master had, it was obvious that Fu Qingzhou really had her master in his grasp!

"You know that, too."

Fu Qingzhou smiled and said, "As long as the price is high, Qianfang Baixiaolou is willing to sell intelligence - of course, if you want, you can go and cause trouble for them."

Shirakawa looked at him coldly.

After a while, she suddenly smiled sinisterly: "I don't believe it."

Fu Qingzhou raised his eyebrows: "What don't you believe?"

"If you don't believe me, you can buy all the details of this matter." Baihe Zhenren's mood had obviously calmed down a lot. He said lightly: "I paid a high price for this matter and asked Qianfang Baixiaolou to keep it secret. Yes, if you can afford a higher price, they will indeed sell it to you."

"However, you rushed here to grab the bride this time, and you don't have the time or energy to deal with them, let alone negotiate the price with them. Therefore, the most you can know is that this locust tree is very important to me, but about that matter..."

Her sinister smile brought out a hint of charm, but it also made her look even more murderous: "You actually don't know the details at all."

Fu Qingzhou raised his eyebrows.

His expression was very relaxed, so relaxed that...even Master Baihe didn't notice the cold sweat running through his hair.

Master Baihe, you are right.

Fu Qingzhou came here with extremely tight time constraints, and the reason he was able to buy information from Zhao Hao was because Zhao Hao knew about this matter in advance and had prepared some information, just waiting for him to buy it.

But as Bai He said, her information was very expensive, so expensive that Zhao Hao could not take it out intact without a buyer.

Therefore, the only thing Fu Qingzhou knew was this locust tree.

In other words, there is only the brief information that "Master Baihe cherishes this big locust tree very much."

But now, can I be timid?

So, he remained relaxed and smiled calmly: "Is that so? Then how about we make a bet?"

"Haha, what are you betting on?" Master Baihe's smile became more dangerous.

She didn't need to move forward because her aura was already terrifying enough, and this distance was even closer to her.

"Yan Hui Town."

Fu Qingzhou said calmly: "I have written down your story and left it somewhere in Yanhui Town and gave it to someone. As long as this person doesn't see me personally come to retrieve the letter by a certain time, then..."

"That letter will appear all over the country."

He grinned and said, "By then, countless storytellers will talk about your youthful story in the teahouse."

Master Baihe clenched his fist suddenly!

She heard the words "green little story"!
Could it be that he really knew?!

Of course Fu Qingzhou didn’t know.

But even the dumbest person could guess something from the red face of Baihe Zhenren from the beginning. In this situation, he could only cheat.

"Your threats are boring." After a brief moment of tension, Master Baihe once again raised a cold and contemptuous smile: "You don't think that I can't even stop a small letter, do you?"

"Hahahaha~"

Fu Qingzhou smiled indifferently and spread his hands: "Then go ahead and do it. We won't resist."

Master Baihe narrowed his eyes and looked at the young man in front of him carefully.

With her level of cultivation, she could easily judge that Fu Qingzhou had indeed not condensed his true essence at this time.

His heartbeat was strong and fast, his blood flow was also fast, and his breathing was a little rapid, obviously he was nervous.

But in this situation...it's hard not to be nervous, right?
Is he lying?
It is difficult to judge Master Baihe.

Fu Qingzhou is not an ordinary young man.

She knew very clearly what Fu Qingzhou had done in the past year.

He can lie without batting an eyelid and can deceive people who are far superior to him.

So, you want to gamble?
He would take action now, capture him and Qiu Chan, end this matter, and continue with his plan - bet that Fu Qingzhou didn't know his past at all, bet that the so-called letter didn't exist, bet that he didn't have any other backup plan, bet... his story wouldn't be leaked.

If you don't gamble and let them go, you will have two more chances.

With two chances, can you deal with Fu Qingzhou?

Master Baihe sneered in his heart.

Damn it, if I can’t even do this, all these years of cultivation have been in vain!
I will simply change my name to Master Bai Xiu!

So, after a brief thought, she sneered and said, "The same trick can only be used once."

"Of course." Fu Qingzhou felt relieved when he heard this, but he still pretended to be very calm, as if he had expected it: "I will not threaten you with the same thing twice, it's really too embarrassing."

Baihe Zhenren smiled slightly: "Interesting, in view of your efforts, I am willing to give you a chance... Although I know that you have no trump card at all, your performance and your calmness make me feel very interesting. I also want to see what tricks you will come up with next."

Hearing this, Qiu Chan's eyes sparkled, she was extremely happy and excited, she bit her lips tightly, and grabbed Fu Qingzhou's hand and shook it vigorously.

"Then this time..."

Fu Qingzhou asked: "How long?"

Master Baihe raised his head and looked towards the sky.

In the bright sunlight that ordinary practitioners cannot see clearly, in the clouds high up in the sky, a small paper crane hovers and circles.

"One day." She lowered her head and said calmly, "This time, I will give you one day."

Fu Qingzhou clasped his fists, said thank you, and without saying a word, he took Qiu Chan by the hand, jumped on the horse, and rode away.

Their backs moved farther and farther away with the horses' hooves until they disappeared.

Master Baihe remained standing there, watching from afar.

After the dust raised by the horses' hooves had settled, she turned her gaze back to the big locust tree.

"Ugh……"

She sighed softly, walked forward, stretched out her white jade hand, and stroked the rough surface of the tree.

"Fang Lang."

Baihe Zhenren's eyes were dim, as if she saw the distant past through the tree. Her voice also became ethereal and silent: "You had such courage back then, right? Unfortunately, you and I are from two different worlds after all. I can't walk to your side, and you can't break into my world."

"If I was stronger then, would the ending be different?"
