Under One Person: Please Call Me Golden Flash

Chapter 170 Zhao Zhen's Popularity

With the addition of Lü Ci and his brothers, Zhao Zhen's group grew considerably.

After leaving the Lü family, Zhao Zhen made a detour to the Sanyi Gate and summoned Lu Jin and Zhuge Dan as well.

To be honest, if the Sanyi Sect hadn't recently undergone a major upheaval and still relied heavily on Zuo Ruotong's leadership, Zhao Zhen would have wanted to invite "Da Ying Immortal" out of the mountains as well.

As I said before, when it comes to saving lives, if Zhao Zhen claims to be second, then absolutely no one dares to claim to be first.

Zhao Zhen had originally planned to invite Zhang Zhiwei along, but considering that the guy was still training down the mountain, Zhao Zhen decided not to bother him.

Even without the Celestial Master's Mansion, this number of people would definitely be enough.

After doing all this, the Tang Clan members had a completely new understanding of Zhao Zhen's popularity in the industry.

"Good heavens, the Lü family, the Wang family, the Lu family, the Sanyi Sect, the Celestial Master's Mansion, Zhao Zhen's connections are really extensive!"

"I used to think he was bragging, but now I see that he really wasn't exaggerating at all."

"But the problem is, according to the rules of our Tang Clan, outsiders are not allowed to interfere during missions, right? Wouldn't Zhao Zhen's actions be breaking the rules of our Tang Clan?"

"Nonsense, rules are rigid, but people are flexible."

Even the sect leader didn't say much, so why are we worrying about this for no reason?

"Too."

Listening to the conversation between Yang Lie and the other two, Lu Jin also looked at the three members of the Tang Clan with great curiosity.

"Old Zhao, you really can't seem to stop anywhere you go..."

They just turned our Sanyi Sect upside down, and now they're causing trouble on Tang Sect's territory.

"What do you mean by causing trouble? How did I cause trouble?"

Zhao Zhen rolled her eyes, looking annoyed.

If it weren't for me, the Sanyi Sect would probably be scattered by now, okay?
"Do you think I want to keep running around like this all the time? I'm just forced into it."
"If I could live like you, spending my days happily in the mountains, do you think I'd still be running around like this?"

"If you ask me, Brother Zhao's way of surviving on the edge of a knife is what makes a real man. Someone like Lu Jin, who spends all his time cultivating in the mountains like a woman, is living a meaningless life!"

Lu Ci suddenly interjected.

This guy has been at odds with Lu Jin since childhood; they're the kind of people who can't stand each other no matter what they do. So, Lu Ci naturally wouldn't miss any opportunity to mock Lu Jin.

"Lu Ci, if you don't speak, no one will think you're mute!" Lu Jin said with a displeased expression.

"I've already spoken, what do you want from me?"

"I……"

Seeing that the two were about to start fighting at the slightest disagreement, Zhao Zhen quickly stepped in to mediate.

"Gentlemen, with a major battle imminent, shouldn't we think about how to survive then?"

"Humph!"

Lu Jin snorted coldly, then asked, "Where are we now?"

"We're almost in Shandong."

"There are still seven days until the agreed date, so we should be able to make it. There's an inn up ahead, let's stop there and rest for a while."

"Ah."

As they spoke, the group arrived at the entrance of the inn.

Just as Lü Ci was about to go in, Zhao Zhen and Lu Jin suddenly stopped.

"Brother Zhao, what's wrong?"

Lu Ci frowned and asked with some doubt.

Zhao Zhen didn't speak, but instead looked at the group of people sitting at the table by the door. "It's you, Wugensheng!"

Lu Jin gritted her teeth, her eyes filled with rage as she looked at Wu Gengsheng.

Lu Jin naturally had no good feelings towards this Quanxing demon who almost caused his mentor's death and the disintegration of the Sanyi Sect.

To take it a step further, Lu Jin could completely blame Wu Gensheng for this calamity of the Three Kingdoms!
After all, if Wugensheng hadn't led Li Muxuan into the mountains, their Sanyi Sect wouldn't have suffered such a calamity!
"Rootless?!"

Upon hearing this, Lü Ci's gaze towards the seemingly harmless man at the table suddenly turned somewhat shocked.

"He's the leader of the Quanxing Sect, Wugensheng?!"

At this moment, Xu Xin and Dong Chang looked at Wu Gengsheng with incredibly complex expressions.

They recognized him at a glance; this was the "oddball" they had met briefly when they assassinated Huang Fang, the Golden Hook.

An "outsider" who not only didn't kill them when they were seriously injured, but instead notified the Tang Clan to rescue them.

Unlike Xu Xin and Dong Chang, Lu Huizhong and Yang Lie narrowed their eyes slightly, looking at Wu Gengsheng as if they were sizing up a special "prey".

Especially Lu Huizhong, the moment she heard the words "Wugensheng" from Lu Jin's mouth, her eyes visibly brightened.

"Wow, what a coincidence, so many familiar faces."

Wugensheng laughed heartily, showing no awareness whatsoever of being suddenly surrounded by so many disciples of righteous sects as the leader of Quanxing Sect.

On the contrary, Gao Gen and Gu Jiting, who were standing next to him, tensed up immediately after sensing the faint killing intent emanating from Lu Huizhong and Yang Lie.

"Haha, come, come, everyone sit down. It's fate that we met, so this meal is on me."

"Waiter, please bring two more tables of fine wine and food!"

"Okay~"

Zhao Zhen gave Wu Gensheng a deep look, then turned to Lu Huizhong and instructed her:

"Sister Lu, now is not the time to cause trouble. We need to hurry up and meet with Master Tang."

After hearing Zhao Zhen's words, Lu Huizhong clicked her tongue.

Although she was somewhat disappointed, she knew that Zhao Zhen was right.

As a disciple of the Tang Clan, one should always prioritize the mission.

"Don't worry, we won't do anything reckless."

"If I'm not mistaken, these people should be friends of the Tang Clan, right?"

The moment Gao Gen and Gu Qiting heard the words "Tang Clan" from Wu Gensheng, they both froze in their drinking motions.

Tang Sect?!

A bead of cold sweat appeared on Gao Gen's forehead. He held the wine glass halfway up his hand, unsure whether to drink it or not.

Knowing that someone from the Tang Clan was sitting next to them, who would dare to touch the food on the table?

Especially since he is currently still a member of the Quanxing Sect, if the Tang Sect takes action, they won't give him any chance to explain.

By the time you realize you've been infected, you might already be close to death...

"Oh? How do you know?"

Lu Huizhong smiled slightly, then winked at Gao Gen and Gu Jiting.

"Don't worry, gentlemen, we haven't poisoned this wine."

This woman...

Gao Gen gritted his teeth. He could tell that this woman was deliberately flirting with them!
