Chapter 782: Scheming From All Sides

The stream was murmuring, and the breeze was blowing. Two men were sitting on the exquisitely carved wooden bench, drinking tea and chatting comfortably.

” I heard that Zhao Yu from the countryside stole Huo Ying’s Azure Dragon Spear?!”

He Jing Hua said in a frivolous tone with a contemptuous expression.

“Yes, Huo Ying did not dare to let his sister know. He found a fellow among the old citizens and wanted to get the spear back through a bet again…”

Wu Yue Dong looked excited. He seemed to be interested in these things. ” Brother Hua, why don’t we go and take a look? The old citizen that Huo Ying found is called Huang Zhe. It’s said that he’s the strongest among the old citizens among the second tier fighters. He has the potential to break through to King Slayer Rank Four…”

“Haha!”

He Jing Hua sneered, “Huo Ying is really embarrassed us the new citizen’s fighter. Even with the Azure Dragon Spear, he lost to a guy from the countryside just arrived at our city…”

“Yeah, if I had the Azure Dragon Spear, I would be invincible in the second tier!” Wu Yue Dong was also dissatisfied when he heard this news from his underlings.

He felt that since Wu Fan was part of the Wu family, such a divine weapon should not have been given to an outsider.

Unfortunately, the precious materials used to forge the Azure Dragon Spear were all found by Wu Fan himself, and had little to do with the Wu family.

“I don’t know much about this Huang Zhe. Do you think he can win?!” He Jing Hua, although appearing calm and indifferent on the surface, was clearly intrigued by the competitors.

“The possibility is very high!”

Wu Yue Dong quickly shook off his bad mood and said with a smile, “I asked around about that countryside guy who just came here…”

“His name is Zhao Yu. When he was in Black Stone Town, he was arrogant and not much liked him as he caused a lot of troubles. I heard he even killed some King Slayer Rank three fighter…”

“Of course, those are minor details. The important thing is that this person, when he was in the first tier, consumed multiple immortal medicines, awakened a special ability, and developed a physique that can quickly restore qi blood energy…”

“I also heard that Wu Liu lost to this Zhao Yu, but it hasn’t been confirmed yet.

I suspect Wu Liu might have gone easy on him…”

“WuLiu?!”

He Jing Hua’s expression became serious. He put down his teacup, turned his head, and asked solemnly, “Are you sure Wu Liu lost to that guy from the countryside?!”

“That’s the word from the family. I don’t get along with Wu Liu, as you know. He’s from a side branch and only has a good relationship with Wu Qiang, never interact much with the rest of the family…” Wu Yue Dong shrugged. Although they all shared the surname Wu, the Wu family was simply too large, with tens of thousands in the younger generation alone, making it impossible to know everyone well.

“If Wu Liu didn’t go easy on him, then this Zhao Yu is indeed something!” He Jing Hua thought for a moment.

He calculated in his mind that if he were to fight Wu Liu, he wouldn’t necessarily win easily. Since Zhao Yu could defeat Wu Liu, it showed he had some real strength.

“What about this Huang Zhe’s strength?!”

Wu Yue Dong smiled and said, “Brother Hua, you don’t follow the old citizens much, so you wouldn’t know that Huang Zhe has quite a reputation…”

“Not long ago, a cousin of mine was married off to Huang Zhe. According to the family, if Huang Zhe were in our generation, he could rank in the top ten…” “Top ten?!”

He Jing Hua was a bit surprised and opened his mouth. “Are you sure your family’s analysis is correct?!”

“I’m sure!” Wu Yue Dong confirmed, “Back then, a younger brother from the family was unwilling to accept this and challenged Huang Zhe. He was knocked down in three moves…”

“So, where would this Huang Zhe rank in your Wu family sequence?!” He Jing Hua asked seriously.

“Well…”

Wu Yue Dong pondered for a moment and revealed, “He should be able to rank fifty-one or fifty-two at that time…”

“So high?!”

He Jing Hua was surprised.” Only one or two places lower than you?!”

“Yes!”

“I watched Huang Zhe’s battle with our cousin. This person not only reached the level of Third Tier long ago, but he also cultivated an Earth-Level High Rank technique to a profound level, at least to mastery, possibly even near to minor success at that time…”

“Of course, that’s not the important part. The important part is that he has also studied multiple battle techniques and has long since mastered them…”

“Right, and there’s one more thing. It’s said that in the old world, this person was a disciple of an ancient martial arts sect, so he already has a solid foundation in martial arts…”

“I see!”

“Given this, Zhao Yu and Huang Zhe should have a good fight!” Wu Yue Dong nodded slightly.

“If that’s all there is to it, Huang Zhe might not necessarily win. After all, Zhao Yu did defeat Huo Ying, who had the Azure Dragon Spear…”

“Even with the Azure Dragon Spear, I can’t say for sure that I could definitely win against Huo Ying…”

Thinking of that divine weapon, Wu Yue Dong’s face turned grim, a hint of jealousy flashing in his eyes, though he hid it well and smiled, “I inquired about the battle details. Zhao Yu’s victory relied entirely on his talent for rapidly recovering qi blood energy…”

“Do you know what stake Huo Ying placed in this challenge?!”

“What?!”

He Jing Hua was also curious. Though they spoke disdainfully of Huo Ying, they knew he possessed many valuable items and that his strength was comparable to theirs.

“The Qi Gathering Ring!” Wu Yue Dong said proudly.

“What?!”

He Jing Hua sat up abruptly, looking at him in shock, “Is it the one Wu Fan had back then?!”

“Exactly!”

Wu Yue Dong laughed, “That kid, after losing the Azure Dragon Spear, he was afraid his sister would find out, so he secretly stole the ring from home to use as a wager…”
