Return to the manor to rest?
This clearly ans he doesn’t want to see anyone.
Luo Yushu really has it rough; even at this ti, he’s still resented by his own father.
The number of Common People gathering in the streets for the excitent was increasing, as the deploynt of so many Brocade Guards in the Capital City was no small matter.
The Common People, watching the scene unfold before them, couldn’t help but be curious.
Xu Nian also struggled with the gazes from the Common People and nodded, "Let’s go, it’s ti to return to my own residence."
Several Princes had their own villas in the Capital City.
Except for the Crown Prince, who needed to stay In the Palace, the others didn’t have that necessity.
Sun Buwei, leading a multitude of Brocade Guards, was also clearing the way for Xu Nian and the others.
Brocade Guards clearing the way?
The Common People thought a major figure had arrived.
After all, more than a year was enough to make many people forget about this Seventh Prince.
But there were also so sharp-eyed ones who recognized him at a glance as the Seventh Prince who had disappeared for a year.
Xu Nian’s villa was located Near West Street, a place where Jianghu People gathered most in the Capital City.
Previously, Luo Yushu, due to his decent martial arts Talent, had intentionally arranged his villa here.
Now, walking along the street naturally drew the attention of many Jianghu People.
"Who is this person, to have a Commander of the Brocade Guard clear the way?"
"Keep your voice down, this is none other than that rumored Seventh Prince. Don’t drag us into your death wish."
"Sothing doesn’t feel right, where have I seen him before?"
"Damn it, isn’t that the Sect Leader of the Profound Yellow Sect? And the kid behind him, he was the one who slaughtered the strange beasts alone during the Nine Dragons Secret Treasure event, I rember that kid!"
...
Among these Jianghu People, many had made it out alive from the Nine Dragons Secret Treasure.
Their entry and exploration in the Nine Dragons Secret Treasure were made possible thanks to the Detoxification Pills from the Profound Yellow Sect. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have had that chance.
But now, seeing Xu Nian here, and also as the Seventh Prince, many Jianghu People were filled with puzzled expressions.
What exactly is the situation?
The Sect Leader of the Profound Yellow Sect is actually the Imperial Court’s Seventh Prince?
「Xiaoxiang Villa.」
Sun Buwei, leading his n to escort them to the door, then bowed and said, "Your Highness, I have other matters to deal with, so I won’t accompany you any longer. If Your Highness needs anything, feel free to contact the Brocade Guard."
Xu Nian nodded gently.
Then he watched as Sun Buwei led the Brocade Guards away from the area.
Dung Beetle and the other two looked around at this villa, never expecting their Sect Leader to live in such a fine place.
They had walked close to the walls all the way here just now.
How much space does it take up?
If this were in reality, wouldn’t the real estate prices claim our lives?
"Turtle! This is my first ti coming to such a place!"
"Who has so extra silver? I see there might be a Brothel over there; let’s go explore it first."
"Feel like partying, can we party inside the Brothel?"
...
The words of the three made Xu Nian’s face darken.
As expected.
Taking these three fools out was indeed just asking for trouble.
What are these antics?
Can’t they hold back even a bit?
Couldn’t they at least endure a few more days, get a feel for the situation in the Capital City, before playing around?
"Sect Leader, I’m going to buy so Tofu and will be right back."
Dung Beetle spoke first.
Without waiting for Xu Nian to respond, he turned and ran towards the distance.
Hero Xu Xian and the Top Archer in the National Server exchanged glances, and both, in perfect unison, looked towards the distant Brothel.
"Let’s check it out, too!"
Both voiced simultaneously.
They were then seen running straight towards the Brothel.
Xu Nian, standing alone at the entrance of the villa, didn’t know what to do for a mont.
After a Half a Mont, he finally sighed.
He pushed the door and entered.
The entire villa had three compounds, taking up who knows how much land, but as far as Xu Nian could see, he had only observed the first courtyard.
Even so, this place had everything from artificial mountains and lakes to pavilions.
He had once visited the Nine Heavens Alliance and was extrely envious of Cui Shengshu’s house.
It didn’t seem so enviable anymore.
This place seed to have been ticulously cleaned, and it looked like it hadn’t been long since the last cleaning.
The only pity was the solitude.
Xu Nian, used to the noise of players, now felt slightly uncomfortable.
He still hadn’t given the players Li Baiyang’s Task.
Currently, as the situation in the Capital City wasn’t settled, Xu Nian was unclear about the eventual outco, so he wasn’t rushing the matter.
The key now was to get a clear grasp of the situation in the Capital City.
Then to handle the Task based on the situation.
Shen Rongyin could be left as Fish Bait for now. The big fish would bite sooner or later, and he wasn’t in a rush about that.
"System, can we open a Respawn Point here?"
"Please select the specific location."
As the System responded, Xu Nian also looked around.
The Front Courtyard definitely wouldn’t work. There were too many Jianghu People Outside, and they could easily attempt to pry.
Only the Middle Courtyard would do.
Xu Nian briskly crossed the corridor and arrived at the Middle Courtyard to find a Room, finally setting up the Respawn Point inside an inconspicuous room there.
This would allow players to reach this spot faster.
Of course, there was no rush now.
News of his return to the Capital City must have reached many by now.
Naturally, so restless souls would take it upon themselves to co and pay him a visit.
These were the targets Xu Nian had in mind.
After handling the Respawn Point, Xu Nian went back to the Front Courtyard and sat alone in the Pavilion, quietly waiting.
"Help, Brother Xu, save !"
Just then, the door to the villa was flung open.
Dung Beetle ca rushing in, breathless, with several hefty won wielding kitchen knives hot on his heels.
"We barely make any money selling Tofu, why would you co and steal our Business?"
"Is that even Tofu you’re selling? The pigsty at my house slls better than your Tofu!"
"Look what you did to my child, vomiting so much he turned pale!"
"My daughter was about to go out with Young Master Wang, but she vomited directly on him after slling that, what do we do now?"
...
Xu Nian watched this scene with a grim expression.
He had thought the first troublemakers would be Hero Xu Xian or the Top Archer in the National Server.
Who would have thought that Dung Beetle would be the first to stir up trouble?
Didn’t he say he was going out to buy Tofu?
Why was he selling it instead?
"Sect Leader, save !"
Dung Beetle ran behind Xu Nian, panting, "They... they’ve gone mad!"
Heh.
This sudden stench caught Xu Nian off guard.
Even he couldn’t help but retch.
Imdiately, he kicked Dung Beetle into the Lake behind him.
"Go wash off that sll on you!"
He said sternly and then turned to look at the Common People who had followed him in.
"Ladies and gentlen, my Disciple is ignorant. I apologize for any offense caused."
As he spoke, Xu Nian pulled a gold piece from his sleeve and handed it over.
At the sight of the gold piece, the Common People were instantly silenced, each fixing their gaze on it.
The leading woman, quick to react, snatched the gold piece and said with a smile, "It’s alright, it’s alright. Just don’t let him sell Tofu anymore. What he makes isn’t Tofu; it’s making us all vomit!"
Xu Nian humd indifferently.
To him, matters that could be settled with money were trivial.
If money couldn’t settle it, then not enough was being offered.
Don’t the Common People of the Capital City also need silver to live?
Fortunately, providing that was not a hardship for Xu Nian.
This group of older won, now laughing and holding the silver, left the villa without even realizing where they had intruded.
Only after walking so distance did they turn back to look at the villa’s signboard.
Xiaoxiang Villa?!
The four big characters were glaringly prominent.
They had been too busy chasing after soone to notice what this place was.
It seed they had stirred up big trouble now!
"Isn’t this the Seventh Prince’s villa? How could there be people inside?"
"I heard that the Seventh Prince returned today. That young man in the Pavilion is probably the Seventh Prince, right?"
"We took his money. Will the Brocade Guard arrest us?"
"Nonsense, that money was compensation from the Seventh Prince himself. If you all don’t want it, I’ll take it myself!"
...
As soon as the money was ntioned, the crowd quickly changed their tune, each following the leading woman to share the money.
After sending these people away, Xu Nian turned to look at Dung Beetle struggling in the water.
"GLUB... help... I can’t..."
Xu Nian was filled with exasperation.
This guy doesn’t know how to swim?
How did he even survive in the cold spring within the Nine Dragons Secret Treasure?
Reluctantly, Xu Nian had to leap up and skim over the Lake as if stepping on water, flying swiftly.
He grabbed Dung Beetle, who was nearly drowned, in one swoop.
After landing on the Opposite Shore, Xu Nian said, "Don’t sell your Stinky Tofu Outside anymore, and don’t bother Ordinary Common People."
With that, he turned and walked back toward the Pavilion.
"I’m saved..."
Dung Beetle lay on the ground, gasping for air. "I almost wasted a Contribution Point, thank goodness the Sect Leader was tily."
Just after resolving the trouble Dung Beetle had caused, Xu Nian hadn’t even reached the Pavilion when soone else ran into the villa’s entrance.
This ti, it was not a commoner, but a mber of the Brocade Guard.
"Seventh Prince, you should check out the Tower of Hundred Flowers. Soone you brought with you is fighting over there."
The Brocade Guard said awkwardly, "Several n have been beaten up by your Disciple!"
Oh great, more trouble?!
"What happened?" Xu Nian asked with a darkened face.
These three troublemakers.
Why had I been so foolish as to bring these three along?
"Reporting to the Seventh Prince, your Disciple has been very generous at the Tower of Hundred Flowers, giving lots of money to geishas for performing songs, and even suggesting everyone party with him."
The Brocade Guard nervously explained, "Then so Young Ladies at the Tower of Hundred Flowers, seeing the money, abandoned their custors to join him. So Jianghu People couldn’t stand it and tried to intervene, but they were beaten up by your Disciple..."
