My cells devour all worlds.
Chapter 29 Gift of Wine
Shen Qingshu's lips moved, but he couldn't utter any convincing words. He could only clench his fists tightly until his knuckles turned white.
What did he say?
He said that Dong Biaotou was no match for Liu Wuzong, and that he himself was being played around in a very embarrassing way. In the end, he managed to hit Liu Wuzong with a knife and turn the tide of the battle.
He himself found it hard to believe, let alone others.
But if we don't say anything, isn't that tacit agreement?
Shen Qingshu gritted his teeth, "Nonsense! My Changfeng Escort Agency operates with integrity and uprightness! I, Shen Qingshu, may have low martial arts skills, but I am by no means a shameless scoundrel who would take credit for others' work!"
"I did kill Liu Wuzong. Whether you believe it or not is up to you."
At this moment, Su Wanqing leaned over and spoke with all her might, "I can testify to this. Liu Wuzong was coming for me. If it weren't for Young Master Shen fighting to the death, I would probably be dead."
Xiao Huan nodded in agreement.
Upon hearing what the two said, Xu Ling not only did not believe it, but stood up and burst into laughter.
He glanced around, a mocking smile on his face. "Our own people as witnesses? Hahaha, what a fine example of 'open and aboveboard'! I've certainly learned something new today."
"Hahaha……"
A burst of laughter immediately filled the hall.
"Shen, the镖头 (bodyguard/escort), had a reputation that lasted half his life, but unexpectedly, it was ruined by his son."
"If you ask me, it would have been much better to choose someone else. Why did they have to pick Liu Wuzong? Everyone knows that Liu Wuzong's lightness skill is unparalleled. Countless martial arts masters have tried to catch him but failed..."
"Perhaps they feel the other people's reputations aren't high enough?"
"This matter deserves a grand celebration..."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Laughter came from all directions, even startling the people in the private rooms on the upper floors, who opened their windows to look over.
"this……"
Su Wanqing's face turned pale. She had originally intended to testify for Shen Qingshu, but she did not expect it to have the opposite effect.
Those words and those gazes felt like a thousand needles piercing my skin.
Shen Qingshu was filled with rage and wished he could go down and fight Xu Ling to the death right now.
But reason told him he couldn't; he was no match for Xu Ling.
Impulsive actions will only have more serious consequences, and will only confirm Xu Ling's statement.
This situation, where he couldn't explain himself or take any action, left him feeling extremely frustrated.
"Qingshu, Wanqing, we don't need to pay attention to him. No matter what we say, he won't believe us."
"Just because you can't do it yourself doesn't mean you can't let others do it, humph."
Su Mingyuan's face was grim. He had wanted to downplay the matter, but Xu Ling was showing him no respect.
Then there's no need for him to fawn over someone who doesn't reciprocate.
Su Mingyuan looked at Nurse Gao with a stern face, "Senior Gao..."
The head nurse stepped forward, his gaze sweeping over Xu Ling like a hawk's. "You don't know what's good for you. My young master respects you as a senior in the martial arts world, so he's giving you some face. If you continue to spout nonsense, don't blame me for being ruthless."
"Oh, so you're getting ready to fight now that you can't win an argument?"
Xu Ling's tone was strange, showing no concern for the threats from the head nurse.
He even clapped his hands and said sarcastically, "No wonder you've been someone else's dog for years, you bark so fiercely."
"You—" Nurse Gao glared angrily.
Upon seeing this, the people in Lanyue Tower were not afraid at all; on the contrary, they became even more excited.
They stirred up trouble without any fear of making things worse, and some even started betting on the spot.
Many people come to Lan Yue Lou specifically for this kind of thing.
Just as Nurse Gao hesitated, the curtains on the roof swayed.
A green shadow suddenly flashed out, fluttering down like a falling leaf, and in an instant arrived on the eaves of the room where Shen Qingshu and the others were.
The newcomer was a woman of eighteen or nineteen, with a graceful figure like a willow and a pair of bright, clear almond-shaped eyes.
Her green dress was particularly eye-catching, making her small face even more beautiful.
The people in Lan Yue Tower were completely stunned. Some stared at the woman's exquisite face and murmured, "That...could that be the Fairy Lan Yue?"
An insider explained softly, "That's Senior Qingli, the maid of the Moon-Embracing Fairy."
Although she wasn't the Moon-Embracing Fairy, Qing Li's appearance made it easy to imagine that this was the Moon-Embracing Fairy's intention.
Could it be that the Moon Fairy is also interested in this matter?
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Qing Liqian flipped her hand, and a white jade pot appeared in her hand.
"By order of the Lord, Young Hero Shen has rid the martial world of a scourge, and Qingli has specially ordered him to bring a pot of Green Bamboo Wine as a congratulatory gift."
She gently placed the wine pot on the window and smiled slightly at Shen Qingshu.
Immediately, he transformed into a wisp of green smoke, soaring upwards and disappearing behind the curtains on the rooftop.
After Qingli finished speaking, the Lanyue Tower fell silent for a moment.
"With Senior Qingli speaking, it must be true that Young Master Shen killed Liu Wuzong."
Qingli represents the Moon-Embracing Fairy behind her.
And who is the Moon-Gazing Fairy? She is the owner of the No. 1 News Tower in the World!
What information is unknown to the other party?
If the other party says it's true, then it's true.
"Hiss~ It seems I misunderstood."
The dark-faced man who had previously mocked Shen Qingshu blushed with embarrassment and poured himself a full bowl of wine.
He picked it up, raised it towards Shen Qingshu, and said loudly, "Young Master Shen, I was blind just now and didn't see it. I apologize to you with this bowl of wine."
After saying that, he tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp, then turned the bowl upside down to show his sincerity.
If there is one, then there are two.
Many people stood up, holding their drinks.
"Young Master Shen, I'm so sorry for what happened earlier. You killed that bastard Liu Wuzong, avenging countless people..."
"I knew it! The young head镖师 of Changfeng Escort Agency is no ordinary person with a reputation for nothing..."
"I will punish myself with three bowls of rice..."
In the hall, almost half the people stood up, although many of them were just following the crowd.
But the changes before and after dispelled Shen Qingshu's pent-up frustration and brought him comfort.
He was speechless and unable to defend himself, while the other party changed his situation with just one sentence.
Shen Qingshu quickly poured himself a glass of wine, first glancing gratefully at the ceiling, then raising his glass in a gesture of respect to everyone in the hall.
"Many thanks to Fairy Lanyue for her generous gift, and many thanks to all my fellow martial artists for your kindness. I was fortunate to succeed, and I dare not take credit for it."
After saying that, he also drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp.
The previously arrogant Xu Ling now had a purplish-red face.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, especially after Qingli made her statement on behalf of Lanyue Tower, there was no longer any room for doubt.
His expression shifted, he gulped down a glass of wine, and gave Shen Qingshu a distant fist salute, his voice hoarse:
"The younger generation is truly formidable; I, on the other hand, have been narrow-minded and ignorant."
After saying that, he lowered his head, threw down the money for the drinks, and walked away quickly without looking back.
Judging by that speed, he probably even used some kind of light-footed skill.
"Get out of here!"
Just as Xu Ling stepped out of the door, a dark figure suddenly appeared at the entrance and casually slapped something.
Xu Ling's figure was suddenly thrown uncontrollably to the side, tumbling several times before he regained his balance.
"you--!"
Xu Ling clutched his aching arm, feeling his blood surging through his body, and he couldn't help but fly into a rage.
He's not someone anyone can just step on!
But looking at the towering figure, at least ten feet tall, shrouded in black robes at the entrance, and the crimson Asura mask looking over, he saw...
He swallowed his words back silently and left without saying a word.
"Your senior's temperament!"
"That slap was truly satisfying; I've been annoyed with Xu Ling for a long time."
"Who is that? He actually managed to send Xu Ling flying with a single palm strike, and Xu Ling didn't even dare to retaliate."
Everyone looked curiously at the tall figure that had just appeared in Lan Yue Tower; some praised him, while others were curious.
"Goodness, this person must be at least ten feet tall."
"An Asura mask, and it's so tall... Could it be the Myriad Laws Asura...?"
"Who has he set his sights on this time?"
