In his half-conscious state, Guo Shan kept looking at the figure who threw him away like garbage with a big puzzle in his mind.
"How...? Just how...? How could that unknown man defeat ? How could soone from the outer region break my scale? Just how?" Guo Shan kept muttering those words.
The words Heero spoke to him did not enter his ears at all. What was bothering him was how Heero could beat him. As for his daughter, he could take her back after he got rid of Heero.
"Xing District" As Guo Shan wondered Heero's true identity, a na flashed in his eyes. At the entrance, Xing District was written, "It sounds familiar"
He felt he had heard the na sowhere and it left a deep impression upon him. Then, he rembered another when he tried to recall where he had heard about Xing District. A na that ca into his mind was Sun Zhou Yi.
"Yes, I rember the new guy is living in the Xing District!" It was his friend who told him about the Xing District. At that ti, they were away for a mission and his friend told him about the mysterious district called Xing District.
The tales of the thunder dragon's descended, the tales of Huo Liang Xun's defeat, and even the tale of Sun Zhou Yi's mysterious master. Those tales involved one district but never crossed in his mind that the Xing District was located in the outer region.
He thought the district should be in the inner region at the least. As he was aware that he just entered the legendary district, he was also aware of sothing. He was being used by the Feng Family.
Yes, everything started with the Feng Family. Guo Shan ca here under the Feng Family's offer, it was to take his wife back. Shen Family also agreed as this was a chance for them to build a bridge between them and a force from the core region.
Even though the task was weird, Guo Shan accepted it for the tempting reward. The confused and furious Guo Shan cald down after the dot after dot connected.
"Why didn't I think about it? They must want sothing from Han Ying, but what is it? It seems I have to do a little investigation and search for this district!" After he collected his thoughts, Guo Shan stood up.
"Heh, you Feng Family wanted to use ? Okay, I am willingly being used, but I will use you for my revenge too! Just you wait, I will co back with your doom!" A deep hatred could be seen from Guo Shan's eyes as he gazed back at the district.
Then, he walked to a car he parked outside the district. As he walked to the car, he made a call, "Get all information regarding Xing District. By the ti I return, I want everything ready on my table!"

anwhile, Heero was heading back to the shop with worrying thoughts. It was regarding the power of the Hero League.
"They are just too weak too weak" Heero muttered in a low voice. He had heard Guo Shan was a Gold Class Hero - Rank 17. If the rank 17 was that weak, what about the lower rank?
He could not imagine what would happen to the city if a horde of specters attacked. Even though he did not like the Hero League, these guys were in charge of protecting the city after all. If the Hero League fell, then his retirent would be ruined.
"It seems the Hero League can't be trusted to take care of the Shadow Fang" Heero let out a sigh, "Hah In the end, I have to make a move myself! Fortunately, I have established the academy, I can train a bunch of heroes too"
Yeah, it was fortunate as it seed the number of the specter was not that much. If the specter had an overwhelming number, then without a doubt they could take over the city a long ti ago.
"I still have ti, but it seems I need to hasten my academy establishnt" As he headed back, Heero called Kang Seo-Yeon, asking about the progress of the academy establishnt.

Guo Shan's visit caused a big change in Shen Miao. The little girl just did not expect to see the bad side of her father. Though Shen Miao was not as cheerful as Lan Lan, she beca a lot quieter since her father's visit.
What's making it worse, Han Ying told the little girl about why her father left her. Yes, apparently, Guo Shan only told her that the separation between her father and her mother was temporary. Her father promised her to bring her mother back with him later.
Making things worse, Han Ying told Shen Miao everything was lies. She told the truth behind her separation with Guo Shan. Everything from her mouth was sothing bad about her father who she always admired.
The shock the little girl received doubled. Her father was her number one idol in her heart, causing a little quarrel between the daughter and the mother.
Approaching the night, Shen Miao still had not co down from her room. While taking care of the order, Heero approached Han Ying and said, "Should we close the shop early?"
"Anyway, Sister, should you tell Miao Miao about that bastard's true nature now?" Hong Yu did not know what was on her sister's mind. She could tell about that later after the little girl cald down.
"The earlier she knew better, so she can accept her father who is not as good as her imagination!" Han Ying firmly told her reasons.
"Yeah Yeah The earlier she knew better" Heero tried to ditate the two sisters and opened a new topic, "We better find a way to comfort Miao Miao. Is there sothing she especially loves?"
"Heh, now... now... now... you are siding with your new wife. I know, there's no way I can win, one against two" Hong Yu refuted with a sly smile as a tinge blush appeared on Hong Yu's cheeks.
Hong Yu's words just reminded her of the bold action of kissing Heero in front of Guo Shan. Heero hit Hong Yu's head with a light hit and said, "What are you talking about? Back to work! Back to work!"
Even Heero also embarrassed about that. Though he acted naturally as Han Ying's husband, now he did not know how to face Han Ying. He understood the reason behind Han Ying's action of kissing him, it was to infuriate Guo Shan who acted overboard.
Heero imdiately went back to his station, dissolving the awkward atmosphere between him and Han Ying. Hong Yu rely snickered at her husband before going back to her station.
Right at that ti, his disciples were back from their training. Hirata, Zhou Yi, Dong-Wo, Xu Lingxun, and Butcher Wang imdiately went to the counter.
"Master, I heard you beat a guy in the morning? Do you need to teach that guy a lesson, so he will not dare to cause any trouble here?" Hirata asked Heero with his usually serious deanor.
He only needed Heero nodding his head, then he would do everything to make everything was done. However, there was no way Heero would agree to this.
Heero shook his head and waved his hand toward his disciples, "This is not sothing you can ddle with. This is my family affairs! Just go take the dicine bath already, you are disturbing my custors!"
Musashi Hirata nodded in acknowledgnt and he headed to the rooftop with the others afterward. As he climbed up, he made an unexpected remark about Heero, "Master is still too soft"
"What? But I think Master is right, this is his family's affairs, we can't ddle into it!" Sun Zhou Yi comnted.
"I did not say we have to ddle into Master's family affairs, but people like Guo Shan or the people from the inner or the core region. They just won't give up unless we implant fear upon them. I believe that guy will co back with more sches later!"
"We have to show what we can do and make them fear us. If not, they will just co back again and again, bothering Master from ti to ti! We have to be more arrogant to beat those arrogant pricks! But Master is just too soft to do this!" Hirata poured everything in his mind.
This ti, no one refuted him as his words contained truth.

Heero thought he was saved from the awkward situation between him and Han Ying as the night arrived. When the shop closed and right after tidying the shop, Hong Yu made a shocking statent.
"Good, I will sleep with Miao Miao tonight! You two can share the bed!"
"What!?""What!?"
Heero and Han Ying exclaid in shock simultaneously.
