Yuchi and Wei Qingzhu came together to the Zhou Family; the Zhou Family members already knew Wei Qingzhu, such a beauty is welcomed by everyone. And most of the Zhou Family knew about Yuchi’s matters, but they were all in the same boat, knowing yet not speaking of it. Speaking would mean death. So considering that Yuchi was clearly dead, why was Wei Qingzhu visiting the Zhou Family? The guards looked at Wei Qingzhu with deep suspicion. Their eyes even showed some greed; such a maiden was truly marvelous. Her dress swaying gently, if not for Xun Xian’s protection, a girl like Wei Qingzhu in Jiangzhou City wouldn’t remain untouched for three days. Within three days, some spoiled young master of Jiangzhou City would definitely make a move. And who is this masked fellow beside her? Holding an Immortal Sword with no reason, appearing like some kind of Cultivator? So how could a Cultivator be with Wei Qingzhu? Isn’t Xun Xian the one always at Wei Qingzhu’s side? "We wish to speak with Miss Zhou Xingcai, might we have this opportunity?" Wei Qingzhu stood in front of Yuchi. Yuchi looked at her back, this girl is truly flawless in her beauty, a punch wouldn’t make her cry, but it would break your heart. "Alright... we’ll pass the message, please wait outside for a moment." The servants went inside. They found Zhou Xingcai, who was tossing and turning on her couch, frustrated with her idleness. Mainly because of Yuchi’s matters. Originally, when she didn’t know Yuchi was the chairman, she was still quite interested in acquiring this young man. But after learning his identity, things became troublesome. And after they really locked him up, seeing the fear on his face seemed even more inexplicable. She felt a strong sense of being deceived, yet she believed herself a very clever person. How could a clever person be deceived? "Currently, Yuchi has been missing for a day. He must have already turned into bones." "Even so, the elders of the Cloud Mountain Sect wouldn’t kill within the Zhou Family." "They certainly know how to handle these matters well." Zhou Xingcai tossing around on the couch looked completely disheveled. "Just that with Yuchi now dead, why do I feel such emptiness in my heart?" "That night, I expressed myself so clearly, even went to the dungeon to find him." "I almost had the words ’I want you’ written on my face, yet he still hid in the haystack, afraid to look at me." "Is he truly afraid of me, or is my charm just not enough?" However Zhou Xingcai looked at it, she couldn’t understand. To reason, a normal young man seeing her enjoying herself would at least want to give it a shot. But he just didn’t seem to want to try, displaying a frightened manner. "Am I really that ugly? Then I’ll leave?" Zhou Xingcai was quite upset. She was a simple person, only interested in strong individuals, but the strong had to conquer her. Or perhaps she wasn’t as beautiful as she imagined? Thinking about it, that seemed possible too; Wei Qingzhu also appeared to be quite attractive. But she certainly couldn’t compare to me; she’s just a wildflower, and I’m a true noble descendant. As her thoughts wandered aimlessly, a knock sounded at the door. The voice of a guard came from outside. Upon understanding the guard’s words, Zhou Xingcai became even more puzzled. "How strange, why would Wei Qingzhu bring someone over to see me at this time?" "Yuchi isn’t even in my Wei Family, all traces have been erased by me." "How could she possibly be investigating anything at this point?" "And as for having a Cultivator with her?" "Our Cloud Mountain Sect is a very formidable presence around here; mere Cultivators are not to be feared." Just as her thoughts were jumbled, Zhou Xingcai directly dressed, tidying up her appearance. Then she exited, ready to inquire about their purpose and see if she should directly refuse them. Upon seeing Wei Qingzhu, Zhou Xingcai immediately greeted cheerfully, "Miss Qingzhu, long time no see." Wei Qingzhu had a strong dislike for Zhou Xingcai, finding this woman’s private life to be utterly chaotic. Yet she still spoke seriously, "Miss Zhou, could we have a talk?" "This is my Uncle Bei; we would like to discuss some matters regarding Brother Wei." "Do you have the time now?" "Yuchi?" Zhou Xingcai was displeased. Did they come over again because of Yuchi? What’s so good about Yuchi? He didn’t even want a great beauty like me. So if such a person is dead, then dead he is, why keep coming over to ask? Isn’t it annoying? Thinking this way, she even decided to say it out loud. She appeared to be in a very difficult position, expressing her reluctance, "I’m sorry, Miss Qingzhu." "I have something very important to do later, so I don’t have the time now." "Perhaps you could come again tomorrow, alright?" Zhou Xingcai simply didn’t want to deal with anything related to Yuchi anymore. To know that her own judgments of Yuchi were a complete mess; she couldn’t see through how Yuchi truly was. So why should she concern herself with such matters? The person is dead, the weeds on his grave already three feet high. Facing Zhou Xingcai’s obvious evasion, Wei Qingzhu was even less happy, clueless about what others were thinking. She felt the woman in front of her must be abnormal, certainly she knew about her Brother Wei. Wei Qingzhu suddenly recalled something, wasn’t her Brother Wei right beside her?! Thinking again, she knew about her Brother Wei being locked up. This woman had imprisoned her Brother Wei for several days, and now pretended to know nothing! It’s a good thing she knew beforehand, otherwise there’d be no seeing through it! Thinking this, Wei Qingzhu secretly glanced at Yuchi beside her, pondering whether she should commend her performance. While Yuchi took off his mask. The middle-aged man’s face broke into a gentle and warm smile, holding the Immortal Sword, he bowed. The middle-aged face of the girl-killer appeared. He was kind and gentle. "In that case, Miss Cai’er, we were a bit abrupt." "We won’t disturb your plans, we’ll take our leave." Yuchi put back on his mask, glancing sideways at Zhou Xingcai. Zhou Xingcai’s eyes were staring directly at him, even fixated on the treasure he was hiding. This burning gaze seemed to have a penetrating effect. Yuchi secretly chuckled: gotcha. Thinking of Zhou Xingcai’s performance a few days ago, his heart and lungs felt somewhat uncomfortable. Just as Yuchi thought, Zhou Xingcai immediately changed her previous attitude. Her back instantly heated, and her chest was covered in sweat. "Don’t be hasty, elder, there’s still time to handle this!" "You’ve come from afar, I’ve thought it over, I mustn’t let you leave just like that." "Yuchi... I know Yuchi well!"
