Chapter 837: Young Master (2)
ng Fusheng’s gaze instantly turned towards that horse carriage. At the sa ti, an elegant figure erged slowly from the carriage.
A handso- and gentle-looking man had stepped off. Even in this mild weather, he had on a thick fur coat over his white clothing. Jet black hair frad his handso face, upon which a humble smile hung. His refinent was a direct contrast to the group of fierce and burly n.
The man slowly walked forward and gave a friendly smile at the grave-looking ng Fusheng. He politely cupped his fists. “I am Gong Zhiyu, here to see Leader ng.”
ng Fusheng’s abruptly paled as Gong Zhiyu announced himself.
Gong Zhiyu was the second son of Gong Qiang, the lord of Zhai Xing Lou. As such, he was the second young master of that city. It was rumored that Gong Zhiyu had been frail and sickly since a young age. He had a tranquil face and differed completely from the other fierce-looking n in Free Valley. Gong Zhiyu was also modest and uncommonly handso, but...
In the entire Free Valley, no one dared to disrespect this chronically ill youth.
“I never expected second young master Gong to co here today. It is really... my honor to have you here.” ng Fusheng gave a stiff smile as he suppressed his anger. Even though they had already drawn arms against Zhai Xing Lou, he dared not act too impetuously before Gong Zhiyu.
“Leader ng is too kind. My body is weak and it is not convenient for to travel. Hence, I seldom get the chance to et with the leaders of the valley. I had long heard of Leader ng’s courage. It is my honor to et you today.” Gong Zhiyu spoke respectfully. It was impossible to tell that he was in any way linked to the savage people of the Free Valley. From whichever angle you looked at, he was the epito of a gentleman from the noble classes.
Cold sweat seeped out of ng Fusheng’s forehead. He was not the slightest bit assured by Gong Zhiyu’s humility. In contrast, it made him go on the high alert.
Gong Zhiyu couldn’t help chuckling as he noticed ng Fusheng’s nervousness. “The previous incident with Leader ng in the Forest of Freedom was a misunderstanding with my father. As such, my father wishes to seek Leader ng for a discussion of that matter.”
ng Fusheng gave a dry laugh as he quietly cursed in his heart.
This Gong Zhiyu had not been in Free Valley for so many years. Why had he suddenly co back!
Gong Zhiyu continued. “The Forest of Freedom belongs to the Free Valley, and we... whether it is Leader ng’s Fu Guang City or our Zhai Xing Lou—we are just temporary refugees in this valley. We are all beneficiaries of the resources left behind by that ancient tribe. The Forest of Freedom is also sothing that the tribe left behind. Leader ng has never entered that forest before and doesn’t know the situation inside. Not that Zhai Xing Lou doesn’t want Leader ng to enter the forest, but... we don’t wish for you to enter it without making the necessary preparations. Otherwise, if you cause damage to the forest, it would be disrespectful to the ancient tribe. As such... if Leader ng wishes to enter the Forest of Freedom, I hope that you can lay down the proper groundwork before doing so.”
Gong Zhiyu’s voice was soft and gentle, and he spoke deliberately and clearly. His words had a certain seductive quality, subtly urging his listeners to subconsciously agree with him.
In fact, the brutal-looking Blood Tribe mbers all felt that Gong Zhiyu’s words were very reasonable.
“Boss, Zhai Xing Lou seems willing to give us the Forest of Freedom. Should we make the necessary preparations first?” One of the Blood Tribe n agreed with Gong Zhiyu’s logic and couldn’t resist advising ng Fusheng.
