The Legend of the Condor Heroes: From Being Expelled from Peach Blossom Island

Chapter 252 Rotten Peach

This woman wasn't ugly; her skin was a bit dark, and she had big eyes. Individually, all her features were quite good-looking, except for her slightly large nose, which seemed to disrupt the proportions and make the rest of her features look somewhat out of place.

Overall, it deserves a score of 65. If it were made in later generations, using famous makeup techniques such as applying nose contouring to make the nose appear smaller, whitening the skin, and making the makeup more glamorous, it could barely reach 75 points, no higher.

She wasn't very tall, probably less than 1.6 meters, but her shoulders seemed a bit broad, making her proportions somewhat unbalanced.

The only thing worth mentioning is her rather impressive and heavy chest. If I had met her in a nightclub in my previous life, she would have been dressed a little less, the nightclub lights would have been a little dimmer, and Wu Chengyu would have been a little tipsy.

Wu Chengyu might spend some money, but he'll definitely regret it the next morning when he sobers up.

But this woman had practiced martial arts, and her skill level was higher than that of ordinary江湖草莽 (jianghu caomang, meaning rough and tumble martial arts practitioners).

Wu Chengyu first noticed the woman's arms and hands. Her arms were quite thick, while her hands were slightly dark and had calloused skin.

It's obvious that she has practiced external martial arts such as Iron Palm and has already achieved some skill, but her hands are not deformed, which means that she has a proper lineage and has not practiced incorrectly.

Generally speaking, women who practice martial arts tend to have a certain heroic spirit. Just like Yan Chunyu, the Red Maiden, she is absolutely heroic and valiant. Coupled with her tall figure of 1.7 meters, she will attract attention wherever she goes.

This woman also possessed a heroic spirit, but she exuded more ferocity and malevolence, which was why Wu Chengyu disliked her at first sight.

In addition, there was the pungent smell of perfume on her body, her clothes were bright red and purple and very tacky, she wore a lot of gold hairpins and beads on her head but had no manners, and she spoke as if no one else was around and had an arrogant attitude. All of this made Wu Chengyu extremely uncomfortable.

Most importantly, the woman's gaze toward Wu Chengyu was aggressive and possessive. From the moment she walked up to Wu Chengyu's table, she was talking, but her eyes were constantly scanning Wu Chengyu up and down.

Did I run into a female hooligan? How novel! Ever since Wu Chengyu underwent a transformation, she has attracted the attention of young women and wives wherever she goes. But this is ancient times, and women are very reserved. At most, those women would steal a glance and then lower their heads and chuckle.

Unlike the woman in front of him, who was so eager to strike up a conversation, whose words were so offensive and who had such a smug look on her face, Wu Chengyu had never seen such a woman before.

Seeing that Wu Chengyu ignored her, the woman sat down on her own, her eyes still fixed on Wu Chengyu's handsome face.

"I didn't want to come to Jingzhao Prefecture Road, especially Chang'an, where the smell of mutton is everywhere. I was thinking about when I could go back, but I didn't expect to meet someone like you, young master. This city of Chang'an has finally left me with a good impression."

I saw you from afar, followed you all the way, and finally had to step into this place that smells so strongly of mutton, which shows my sincerity.

"Young master, how about we go somewhere else? There are a few restaurants in Chang'an with barely acceptable food. How about I treat you to a drink?"

Wu Chengyu shook her head and said, "A bowl of mutton soup is enough. I don't know you, Miss, so I won't bother you any longer. Please make yourself at home."

The woman seemed not to hear Wu Chengyu's words. Her eyes looked like she wanted to devour him, and she kept chuckling. She had finally revealed her true intentions.

"To tell you the truth, I am not yet married. I have finally found a suitable husband, so how can I let him go? My name is Qiu Qianchi, and I am from Anhui. It is fate that we meet here today. You are so handsome, young master. Why don't you come back to Anhui with me? My family is very wealthy and powerful in the area, and my brother is a local tycoon. Who in the martial arts world are we not afraid of? As long as you submit to me, you will definitely enjoy wealth and honor forever."

Wu Chengyu suddenly realized that Iron Palm Lotus Qiu Qianchi was Qiu Qianren's younger sister. In the original novel, she appeared as an ugly old woman with all four limbs crippled. Not only was she ugly, but her personality was also twisted. She claimed that she was a beauty when she was young and was known in the martial arts world as Iron Palm Lotus.

In retrospect, calling her a lotus flower is a bit of an exaggeration; it was probably just flattery because of her brother Qiu Qianren.

This woman was also a sucker for good looks. Her husband, Gongsun Zhi, was handsome regardless of his character. Even though he was middle-aged when he appeared, he was still very good-looking. Only in this way could Qiu Qianchi fall in love at first sight and marry him into the Valley of Heartbreak.

Who would have thought that she would be chosen by Qiu Qianchi before Gongsun Zhi? The key is that Qiu Qianchi's attitude is that she will not give up until she gets what she wants.

This woman must have come to Chang'an with Qiu Qianren. When she was eavesdropping on the Jin spies, the third one said that the people Qiu Qianren brought had recently caused trouble in Chang'an, making these spies constantly clean up their messes. She was obviously referring to Qiu Qianchi.

Wu Chengyu activated his five senses and quickly spotted a group of people dressed in tight-fitting clothes and carrying weapons outside the restaurant. Five or six of them were probably Qiu Qianchi's henchmen, as arrogant as Qiu Qianchi herself.

There were a few other people hidden in the crowd. Judging from their attire, they were similar to the spies we saw last night. They were the ones responsible for dealing with Qiu Qianchi's troubles.

It seems that Qiu Qianchi was bored today and went to Chang'an City to cause trouble again. She just happened to see me, and this face-obsessed girl immediately started drooling over me and wanted to take me back to get married.

Wu Chengyu doesn't reject romantic advances, but he absolutely dislikes bad ones. Compared to Yan Chunyu, Qiu Qianchi is not even worth a toe.

However, Wu Chengyu was thinking about how to get closer to the Great Ci'en Temple, find out the experts and arrangements inside, and most importantly, get close to Qiu Qianren. He had previously wanted to impersonate the leader of the Jin Kingdom's secret agents, and now it seemed that the opportunity had come.

“I am already married and have no chance with you, Miss. Moreover, how can you, a woman, be so wanton and unchaste in public? Please leave. I do not wish to have any more dealings with you.”

Using Qiu Qianchi's idea, Wu Chengyu only had a fleeting thought before giving up. After all, he was a great hero of China, unparalleled in the land. How could he possibly get entangled with this extremely annoying woman? He couldn't stand the smell of her perfume for even a moment longer.

Qiu Qianchi was not angry when Wu Chengyu scolded her. Perhaps in her eyes, all good-looking men deserve to be forgiven. If it were anyone else, her Iron Palm would have struck down on the spot.

"Why must you keep people at arm's length, young master? Once I, Qiu Qianchi, set my sights on someone, they will not escape my grasp."

"Very well, we've only just met, and it was rather abrupt. I'll take my leave now and come back to see you another day. I'm sure I can win you back."

As soon as she finished speaking, Qiu Qianchi turned and left without any hesitation. However, as soon as she stepped out of the restaurant, she spoke to her subordinates.

"Send a few people to follow this handsome young man, find out where he lives, his background, who his family members are, and that he says he is already married. Find out everything for me."
