It's clearly a crossover game, but the system insists it's a pirate game.

Chapter 119 Zhu Wushi: No, we can't wait any longer.

"Master Zhou—"

A tall, slender man dressed in white and wearing a golden mask suddenly appeared, as if by teleportation, standing less than three zhang behind Zhou Ye. He spoke slowly and deliberately, "I've heard that your divine skills are unparalleled. I've come here for no other reason than to exchange ideas with you."

My fishing mood vanished instantly.

Zhou Ye reeled in his fishing rod, then looked at him and said, "Exchange? Sure, I'll only use one move. If you can catch it, you live; if you can't, you die."

The word "death" had barely left his lips when Zhou Ye appeared behind the other person and swung his large hand to slap their face.

The masked man, or rather, Gongzi Yu, had come very well prepared for this trip, but even so, he was still taken aback by Zhou Ye's speed.

He didn't take Zhou Ye's palm strike head-on, but instead dodged it with a flash. However, when he had flashed to a distance of five zhang and hadn't even landed properly, he found that Zhou Ye's palm was still there, and it was less than a foot away from his face.

Now there was no way to dodge it. He could only gather his inner energy and swing both palms at the same time towards Zhou Ye's slap, trying to take the blow head-on.

"Sizzle!"

Gongzi Yu's palms met Zhou Ye's slap, but he quickly realized something was wrong; his internal energy was deflected.

And the immense force was not weakened; instead, it pushed his hand back.

We can't hold on any longer!

Gongzi Yu's internal energy softened, and he prepared to use the force to bounce away, but his speed was not as fast as the speed of the slap. In the end, he was still slapped in the face and flew away in a spinning motion.

Zhou Ye was somewhat surprised: "How did it fly so far?"

I didn't use much strength this time, only about 80%.

The head of the Azure Dragon Society, if you don't use enough force, it's disrespectful to people!

I never expected it to fly further and further away—good bastard, he ran away without even saying a word, really.

Zhou Ye packed his things and then leisurely headed towards the nearby town.

He didn't go into the city; it wasn't very interesting. So, after arriving, he found an inn in a small town outside the city and stayed there. He would leave at dawn with his things and wouldn't return until it was almost dark.

Because he was approachable and down-to-earth, the innkeeper could joke with him a bit. When he saw him return with an empty fish basket again, the innkeeper laughed and said, "Master Zhou, you didn't catch anything again? Why don't you take my advice? There aren't many fish in that river. You should go fish in the river to the south; there are more fish there."

Zhou Ye smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll try it out tomorrow. How about vegetables for dinner tonight?"

The innkeeper smiled and said, "A whole cow feast!"

Zhou Ye gave a thumbs up: "Great! It's delicious! I'll reward you handsomely!"

"Thank you for your kind offer!"

Zhou Ye was very generous and didn't book the entire inn. He wasn't picky about the food either, as long as it was meat. Everyone from the innkeeper to the waiters was very attentive to such a distinguished guest.

He put his things back in the room and sat outside waiting for food. Just as he was getting bored, Zhuge Zhengwo led three people into the inn and immediately found Zhou Ye, who was waiting for his meal. He then smiled and led the group to sit opposite him.

"You've come at just the right time! Today is a whole cow feast, you're in for a treat."

Iron Hand chuckled sheepishly. When Zhui Ming heard there was good food, his eyes narrowed immediately. He placed the fine wine he had brought on the table. Leng Xue was still the same as always, as if the whole world owed him two taels of silver. He sat next to Iron Hand with a stern face and didn't say a word.

If these people came together, it definitely wasn't just for a meal; they must have something to do. But Zhou Ye didn't want to get too close to them. He had his own things to do and had no interest in helping the Divine Marquis's Mansion solve cases.

The dishes arrived quickly, all meat, and Zhuge Zhengwo only ate a few bites before stopping. Then came Zhui Ming, who also couldn't eat much meat: "Can't you get some vegetables to cut the greasiness?"

Zhou Ye didn't speak, but instead picked up a clove of garlic from the small dish in front of him and popped it into his mouth right in front of him.

Zhui Ming was convinced.

Because of the ruthless relationship, this wasn't the first time he had eaten with Zhou Ye, but he was always impressed each time. He simply couldn't accept treating garlic as a vegetarian dish.

But to everyone's surprise, Leng Xue was still eating. He'd take a bite of meat, then a bite of cucumber. Iron Hand, sitting next to him, was astonished: "Where did you get that cucumber?"

"I brought these over in advance. I'm having dinner with him, so I need to bring my own vegetarian dishes."

"hiss!!"

Zhuiming took a deep breath of the alcohol fumes: "So, you didn't even warn us?"

He ignored him and continued eating, but he stopped after a short while because he simply couldn't eat anymore.

Next, it was Zhou Ye's turn to perform. He ate all the meat, bite by bite, and even drank a large pot of meat soup.

Seeing that he had finally finished eating, Zhuge Zhengwo had just chuckled twice when Zhou Ye interrupted him: "I came here to relax, not to cause trouble. Don't come to me if you have any problems; I can't help you."

Zhuge Zhengwo's words caught in his throat. He knew Zhou Ye was petty and the matter from last time was still fresh in his mind, so it seemed he couldn't ask for help this time. But just as he was about to change his mind and ask Wuqing to come back, Zhuiming suddenly laughed: "Divine Marquis, I told you it was useless, didn't I? Alright, this matter really wasn't something Old Zhou should be involved in. As for Wuqing..."

Girl, don't even think about it anymore. You've quit, and that's it.

Tie Shou nodded as well. To be honest, if he and Zhui Ming had known that Zhuge Zhengwo was bringing them to find Zhou Ye, they would never have come.

Leng Xue got up and left. He only just realized what Zhuge Zhengwo meant by bringing them here. If he had been told earlier, he wouldn't have come.

Actually, I didn't want to come either, but I had no choice. Zhu Wushi seems to be convinced that the emperor is going to take action against the Dragon Guard Manor, so he's been making a lot of moves lately, so much so that anyone with eyes can see what he's up to.

But what good will it do to know?

It's unstoppable!

Based on Zhu Wushi's abilities, he really had no confidence that he could stop him. As for uniting with other departments in the court, they all ignored him.

He invited Zhou Ye to be his last resort.

Of course, Zhou Ye didn't know, but even if he did, he wouldn't agree. He didn't need anyone's help to deal with Zhu Wushi. If he wanted to get rid of him, he could have done it long ago. The reason he waited until today was to mentally torment him a bit.

Sikong Zhaixing and Lu Xiaofeng's first mission failed. Although they successfully infiltrated the eighteenth level of the Heavenly Prison, they triggered a mechanism when they entered the nineteenth level, making Zhu Wushi, who was already on edge, even more nervous.

Although Sikong Zhaixing and Lu Xiaofeng had already run away when he arrived, his face turned dark and gloomy when he saw the mechanism that was half destroyed.

He couldn't wait any longer. No matter who was targeting him, he had to take action. Otherwise, his power would be slowly eroded away, and then he wouldn't be able to revive Su Xin.
