Yaaaaak!!!
"I won't give up!"
Bang!!! Bang!!! Bang!!!
For the first pair of maneuvers, the two of them only fought within the time of two incense sticks before the winner was decided, which was a young generation from the Crescent Rabbit Clan who had the advantage of speed and astuteness in attacking the opponent's blind spots with his precisive blows.
After the first pair was ended, the second, third, and fourth pairs were maneuvered in sequence. And each pair ended in the same amount of time. Until now, the fifth maneuver pair was between a junior from a mid-level half-monster clan and a junior from a low-level human clan who had only recently moved into the city. But it was a clan that was famous and had enough power to be invited to join the banquet.
And the young generation from the human clan did well. Not only did he not speak much, but his punches were also heavy and powerful.
'As expected of someone from the Demon Sect or Devil Sect. He can control energy in his attacks very well. That prevented the true energy wave from being revealed. It seems that the real person beneath that body is definitely an advanced Deity Soul stage great skilled martial master.'
Zheng-Fu kept an eye on this pair with particular interest. Because the youth who had been announced as being from the human clan was one of the five people staring at him. This person was a young man with a tall body and a fierce and crazy face. But his actions were not as fierce and crazy as his appearance. He was very calm and collected while fighting.
That made Zheng-Fu guess that the true identity beneath that body was definitely a high-stage great skilled master. Otherwise, he would not be able to control the flow of energy waves that well.
But no matter how well he controlled it, he could not escape Zheng-Fu's gaze. Actually, he could already catch their identities from the moment they were just sitting there. When he fought and unleashed his energy like this could not hide his true identity from Zheng-Fu. But even if he knew, Zheng-Fu remained silent and pretended to be enjoying the maneuver.
"Isn't that an excellent maneuver, sir, Young Master Zheng-Fu?" A sweet, familiar voice suddenly sounded.
Hah!
"Young Miss Niao-Zhu-Qi!" As Zheng-Fu turned around, he found that Niao-Zhu-Qi had already approached. So, he replied, "Excellent, Young Miss Niao-Zhu-Qi. The young generations of each clan fought to the best of their abilities. Although some of them are only good at using force. Hmm, if you don't mind, please sit and watch the maneuver with me."
"Thank you, Young Master Zheng-Fu! But you can just call me Zhu-Qi. No need to call me Young Miss like that. It sounds so distant. Since we already know each other, it's better to just call me by my name." The young woman hurriedly sat down without refusing. Because she had already intended to get close to Zheng-Fu.
Umm!
"Then I'll call you Miss Zhu-Qi. After all, you're the Young Miss of the Scarlet Fire Bird Clan, which is the major clan of this city. And the two of us had just met each other for a short time. It's probably better to call it that, right?" Zheng-Fu knew what the young woman wanted. So he built a small wall to keep some space without making it feel too distant.
"All right! Then may I call you Zheng-Fu?" the young woman responded and smiled. She was not a stubborn, self-centered person. She, therefore, accepted Zheng-Fu's idea easily. Just this made her and him already seem closer.
"No problem! It's up to you to call. I don't mind," Zheng-Fu replied, before turning to continue to watch the maneuver. But at that time, the previous round of maneuver had ended and a new pair had taken its place.
"Eh! You seem to be very interested in the muscular young man from the previous pair, Zheng-Fu! I saw you smile at him too. It's not like... You like him!?" The young woman saw that Zheng-Fu was a little disappointed that the previous pair's maneuver had ended. So, she playfully teased Zheng-Fu.
"Yes, I like him! But what I like is the way he fights. It's very different from his appearance. I find it interesting." Zheng-Fu was not embarrassed or displeased by the young woman's question. He answered her straightforwardly but towards the end explained the real reason, making his response a playful one in return.
Umm!
Of course, at first, Zhu-Qi almost believed him and thought that Zheng-Fu really liked men. Because he did not care about any young woman. Her face suddenly turned red in embarrassment when she heard his last sentence. She felt that Zheng-Fu was also teasing her.
"Oh, it's exactly like that! I'm sorry, I thought you liked him. So, what kind of woman do you like, Zheng-Fu?" The young woman tried to hide her shy expression before asking this question.
"The kind of woman I like? Well... someone from Half-monster Race, good-natured, good at talking and understanding my feelings. And most importantly, she must be a woman who is good at... taking care of me," Zheng-Fu replied immediately. He did not pretend to say it to make Zhu-Qi feel good. But all of these were the qualities of Qi-Er.
"Really!?"
Of course, Zheng-Fu's answer made Zhu-Qi smile happily. Because she knew she had all those qualities. Or if she did not, she could make herself have them all for him. Only if he told her what he wanted, she would quickly do that without even complaining.
"Really, Miss Zhu-Qi. Because all I said is what my wife is. She is a nice young woman from Half-monster Race, has a good personality, speaks well, and understands all my feelings. And she's also good at taking care of me," Zheng-Fu told her about his wife Qi-Er early on. Because he knew what the young woman was thinking.
Wife!?
"You already have a wife!?" Zhu-Qi's face turned sad upon hearing that. She thought that Zheng-Fu was interested in her and was talking about her. She could not imagine that Zheng-Fu was talking about his wife.
"That's right, Miss Zhu-Qi. I have a wife. We love each other very much. It's just that we encountered some misfortune that temporarily separated us," Zheng-Fu answered her with a serious expression.
"I feel sorry for you about that! I hope you and your wife can be reunited soon," said Zhu-Qi, quickly changing her sad expression back to her original state. She sincerely blessed Zheng-Fu. She could feel the love that was filled in Zheng-Fu's words. Even though she had never had true love before, she did not want to hinder or interfere with anyone's feelings.
"Thank you, Miss Zhu-Qi. I also wish you to meet someone you truly love." Zheng-Fu noticed that she had suddenly changed. Zhu-Qi also changed. Her feeling of love and desire had just now disappeared. Instead, it turned out to be the feeling of a friend who wished well for her friend. So, he blessed her as well.
"Thank you! But are you going to leave the city tonight? Why don't you just stay here for another night? You can go stay at my tavern if you want. I guarantee that I'll drive all those messy people away to prevent the noise from disturbing you when you're resting!" Once the two of them had truly talked, Zhu-Qi also regarded Zheng-Fu as a comrade. It made it easier for her to speak to him more smoothly. Even though she was several years older than Zheng-Fu,
"At first, I thought of leaving tonight. But it seems that something has caused me to change my travel plans. And besides, tonight might not be very safe. I think you should stay as close to your father as possible." Zheng-Fu also felt like Zhu-Qi was one of his comrades. So, he indirectly warned her to be careful.
Hah!?
"Will it be very serious? When will it happen?" Zhu-Qi was not a fool. She immediately understood what Zheng-Fu wanted to convey to her and asked for more details.
"Very serious. As for the time, I don't know for sure." Zheng-Fu could not answer much because he was afraid that he would make the enemy realize it first. Just his warning to her had already caused many people to start looking at him. But his words could be about the maneuver in the arena, so they just let it pass.
Inside a house away from the event area...
"When we receive the signal from our people, we'll take action immediately," a voice filled with killing intent sounded inside the hall of the house. Around the person who spoke, a large group of men and women had gathered together.
"I never thought that a good opportunity would come so soon! It was all thanks to the Deity Treasure incident that happened. And thank you to that idiot who arrogated to be a hero. Otherwise, we wouldn't have the chance to deal with those important people all at once like this."
"True! They were so arrogant and cocky. They even fraudulently portrayed a stranger as a city's savior hero. Shih! After all, there's no way anyone can stop the Deity Treasure crisis without using the Deity stage identity to deal with it."
"What if the person they praised as a hero really has his talent?"
Hah!?
"So what! Even if he really has talent, he is only at the Half-deity stage. We also have three Half-deity stage people supporting us. No matter what, they'll be defeated!"
"All right! You all must prepare everything. Once we receive the signal, we'll seize this city and possess the Deity Treasure!"
Umm!
These people all unleashed killing intent through their eyes, which was mixed with greed. Their main target was the Deity Treasure beneath the ancient ruin.
If anyone in the city saw the faces of this group of people, they could probably tell right away who these people were. But at this time, most people had started to close their houses and go to sleep. Only the area where the banquet for Zheng-Fu was held was still bustling. So no one in the city knew what this group of people was doing.
But there was one thing they could not expect. That was, the five spies hidden in the banquet were already discovered by Zheng-Fu. Moreover, Zheng-Fu had already secretly used a spell talisman to block the area, without letting anyone know.
The reason he had to use a spell talisman to block the area was to prevent people within it from communicating or sending messages to the outside. However, using a spell talisman had a disadvantage in that the quality of the spell was inferior to casting spell characters himself. If the enemy used a special communication jade, they would be able to send out a message anyway.
