205: Addiction Nest 139 205: Addiction Nest 139 “Oh, you’ve t Young Master Ruan?”
Fang Zhixing’s eyes twinkled, and he suddenly beca interested, “What kind of person is he, and how skilled is he in martial arts?”
As soon as he asked this question!
Xigou couldn’t help but tense up, quickly raising his head to take a deep look at Fang Zhixing.
Whenever Fang Zhixing started to inquire about soone!
Xigou couldn’t help but worry.
There was no helping it.
He knew Fang Zhixing too well, from a bent tail, he could tell what kind of “shit” he would pull.
Provoking the likes of Fang Zhixing, a vindictive person, no one had a good outco.
That’s just this damn guy’s nature.
The old man answered, “Young Master Ruan, ah, he’s very magnanimous, and he pays generously for the services rendered, and his martial arts are also very high.”
Fang Zhixing asked intently, “Exactly how high?”
The old man raised his hand up high, vaguely saying, “Well, it’s just very high, three to five n couldn’t beat him alone.”
Fang Zhixing understood and nodded, “You may go.”
The old man, like pardoned from death, ran off with his legs.
Fang Zhixing’s eyes suddenly turned blood red, he looked around, then, with a swift movent, he moved close to the old man, imprinting his palm on his back.
[Burst Skill · Heavenly Slaughter Palm]
The old man’s body shook violently, he was sent flying into a nearby drainage ditch.
Pong!
The old man’s body exploded, blood and flesh flying everywhere, forming a sticky blood mist that floated into the ditch.
Seeing this scene, Xigou exclaid, “Why kill him, he’s just a common man?”
The blood in Fang Zhixing’s eyes faded, he responded, “He knew that Huagui was dangerous, yet he kept luring passersby there, doesn’t he deserve to be killed?”
Xigou was speechless.
In his view, the old man was actually innocent, he was just performing paid tasks, the real culprit should be Young Master Ruan.
But Fang Zhixing treated everyone equally, the old man was an accomplice, and thus had to be killed.
Fang Zhixing turned around and walked back, mounting his horse.
“Let’s go—”
The horse hooves thundered, swiftly passing through the apricot forest.
Xigou ran along frantically, looking at the direction they were moving, and transmitted his voice, “Where are you going?”
Fang Zhixing replied, “First, to the camp there.”
“What are you doing at the camp?”
Xigou couldn’t help but shiver in shock, astounded, “No way, are you really planning to take revenge on Young Master Ruan?”
Fang Zhixing replied, “Let’s see the situation first.”
Xigou couldn’t resist reminding him, “The Ruan family may be a minor noble family, but no matter how minor, it’s still a legitimate noble family, not sothing you can provoke as you wish.”
Fang Zhixing turned a deaf ear, showing an indifferent attitude.
Seeing this, Xigou clicked his tongue, “How much stronger have you beco with this latest advancent, to dare disregard a noble family like that?”
Fang Zhixing was silent for a mont, “Which dog eye of yours saw disregarding the noble family?
I’m just going to investigate a bit, I didn’t say I must kill them outright.”
“Enough of your bullshit!”
Xigou snorted coldly, “If it were before, at the first whiff of danger, your first reaction would definitely be to run, the farther the better.”
Fang Zhixing glanced at Xigou, with disdain, “Is it you who has eight lives, or is it ?
Why does it seem the more lives you have, the smaller your courage becos?”
Xigou’s eyes widened, his expression serious, “Let make it clear, if you’re going to provoke Young Master Ruan, I am definitely not going to risk my life with you.”
“Whatever, suit yourself!”
Fang Zhixing shook his head disdainfully.
Shortly after, they returned to the camp.
Fang Zhixing entered a restaurant.
“Honored guest, please co inside,” greeted the enthusiastic waiter.
Fang Zhixing chose a table and sat down, ordered several dishes and wine, then inquired, “Waiter, I’ve heard a rumor, there’s a Young Master Ruan at Mirror Water Villa, known for being very generous and likes to make friends in martial arts, is that true?”
The waiter gave a thumbs up, smiling, “That Young Master Ruan is famous far and wide; he is known for being righteous and charitable, and he likes to make friends with all kinds of heroes and good fellows, possessing a reputation for chivalry.”
Fang Zhixing queried, “What’s his na, how old is he, what’s his cultivation?”
The waiter replied, “His na is Ruan Yingchen, probably not yet twenty-five years old, and as for cultivation, it’s said he’s a Five Beasts Realm master.”
Fang Zhixing nodded knowingly, pressing further, “What’s his status within the Ruan family?”
The waiter spread his hands, “I can’t really say clearly, so say he’s a direct descendant of the Ruan family, others say he’s just a bastard.”
Fang Zhixing took out so change and stuffed it into the waiter’s pocket, asking, “In the camp here, who knows the most about young Master Ruan’s details?”
The waiter thought for a while, then suddenly slapped his thigh, replying, “In the camp, there’s a loafer everyone calls Old Yu.
His wife works as a maid in Mirror Water Villa, definitely understands the details.”
Fang Zhixing imdiately ordered, “Go invite Old Yu over, I’ll treat him to a drink.”
The waiter took the reward money, happy to help.
Soon, he summoned Old Yu, a middle-aged man with frost-tipped temples, a short beard, and a black mole near his mouth with a long hair on it.
Old Yu sat down with a genial smile, had three shots of strong liquor, his face flushed, and he carefully explained, “Ruan Yingchen is a collateral relative of the minor noble Ruan family, and this collateral branch seems to be dwindling, apparently he’s the last one left.”
“The last one?”
Fang Zhixing pondered briefly, curiously, “Mirror Water Villa is the Ruan family’s sumr retreat, right?
Since Ruan Yingchen has been living there continuously, it indicates that his relationship with the family must be quite good.”
Old Yu smiled, “My wife ntioned, Young Master Ruan doesn’t interact much with the main family.
That Mirror Water Villa was built by Young Master Ruan’s father and has no connection with the main family.”
Little interaction…
Likes to make friends in Jianghu…
Fang Zhixing keenly caught these keywords, imdiately asking, “How strong are Ruan Yingchen’s martial arts skills?”
