Chapter 75 Rules of Jianghu

Brother Zhou?

Among the few people Xu Han knew, Zhou Zhang was probably the only one who could be called Brother Zhou.

That was a true personal disciple. Did Tong Tiexin dare to tear down Zhou Zhang's house after eating Xiong Xin Leopard? Xu Han did not understand, but he could not sit idly by.

He immediately exchanged glances with Song Yueming , not caring about this delicious meal. He hurriedly left the courtyard with Chu Chouli and headed towards Zhou Zhang's residence at the top of the mountain.

Xu Han vaguely guessed that Tong Tiexin had offended Zhou Zhang because of him, but he really couldn't figure out who gave him such courage. "Then what exactly is Tong Tiexin's background? How dare an inner sect disciple bully Zhou Zhang? Could it be that no one in the sect can take care of him?" Xu Han looked at Song Yueming and asked.

"Brother Xu don't know, although brother Zhou is nominally the exquisite pavilion heavy moment peak personal disciple, but it is not relying on his ability to go to that step, also not as talented as Hongjian martial uncle. It was as if something had happened to his family, and he was close to someone from the Martial Uncle generation in the sect. That was why he thought of a way to recruit him into the sect. All these years, the disciples of the sect had not participated in the competition with Brother Zhou. The people in the sect were shameless towards him. They thought that his cultivation was inferior to others, so they didn't dare to make a fool of him. However, the identity of the personal disciple was placed there. The inner disciples did not dare to provoke him, and the personal disciples did not dare to associate with him. Song Yueming said slowly with a calm brow.

Hearing this, Xu Han frowned. He did not expect that Zhou Zhang, who normally looked like he was greeting everyone with a smile, would be in such an unsatisfactory situation in the Exquisite Pavilion.

"You also said that he is a direct disciple. How could this Tong Tiexin dare to touch Brother Zhou?"

"Brother Xu, you really don't know anything about the world. Senior Brother Tong's inner sect disciples won the top spot in the competition. He has already advanced to become a direct disciple. He is under Martial Uncle Qingruxi of Zhongju Peak." Song Yueming said unhappily. She was obviously a little surprised that she didn't know such a big thing about Xu Han.

Hearing this, Xu Han probably understood a little. He didn't say anything at the moment, but his expression was gloomy as he hurried forward.

…

When they arrived at Zhou Zhang's residence.

"Here, right, right, here, move those out as well." Meng Shuge was standing in front of Zhou Zhang's courtyard and shouting. Following his orders, several young men dressed as inner disciples moved out of the courtyard, one shelf after another filled with books.

Tong Tiexin stood at the side with a man and a woman who looked like they were twenty-eight or twenty-nine, their expressions proud as they talked happily.

Xu Han had seen how Zhou Zhang cherished these books. Even if he couldn't put them on the bookshelf, the extra books would still be tidied up by him, and he wouldn't be careless.

However, at this moment, these books were casually thrown out of the courtyard by the inner sect disciples along with their bookshelves, scattered all over the ground.

As for Zhou Zhang, he was squatting on the ground and silently picking up the scattered books. His expression was indifferent and he did not know whether he was happy or sad.

Seeing this scene, Xu Han hurriedly walked forward to Zhou Zhang's side.

"Brother Zhou." He called out softly, his expression gloomy, just like the snow that was paved all over the ground.

"Brother Xu, are you here?" Hearing this, Zhou Zhang raised his head to look at Xu Han. A smile appeared on his indifferent face. "This snow is wet, and books are easily soaked in ink. Brother Xu came at the right time. Help me tidy up." Zhou Zhang said in such a relaxed tone that he could not hear the loneliness or indignation of being chased out of the hospital.

"Oh? Isn't this Young Master Xu ? Why aren't you working on the Xuanhe Peak ? Why are you here in my courtyard?" Not far away, Tong Tiexin and the others also noticed Xu Han's arrival at that time. A trace of joy appeared on his face when his scheme succeeded. Then, he spoke loudly and walked towards Xu Han with an eager expression.

A man and a woman who had just talked happily with him also cast their gazes at Xu Han at that time, seemingly curious, but with an undisguised disdain.

"Those two are also direct disciples of Qingru Stream Sect. The male is called You Lingqu and the female is called Bai Fengyi ." Seeing this, Song Yueming hurriedly whispered in Xu Han's ear. He could roughly see the anger in Xu Han's heart at this moment, so he kindly reminded him that he was afraid that Xu Han would irritate the three of them. At that time, with their strength, they probably wouldn't be able to defeat these people.

"Your courtyard?" "Isn't this Brother Zhou's courtyard? I'm ignorant. In the past, I've only heard that Jiu likes to occupy the Magpie Nest and dogs like to chase after people, but I don't want Big Brother Tong to have such a hobby. It's strange, strange!" Xu Han asked with a puzzled expression.

"You!" Hearing this, Tong Tiexin's expression instantly changed as anger rose to the tip of his eyebrows. He originally wanted to provoke Xu Han with the matter of Zhou Zhang, so it was best for him to make a move first. Then, in the name of self-defense, he tried to teach Xu Han a lesson, but he didn't want Xu Han to be sharp-tongued. Just a few words made his heart burn with rage, and he almost couldn't help but make a move. Fortunately, the two senior brothers and sisters standing beside him had managed to wake Tong Tiexin up even though they had reached out to stop him.

"Brother Xu's mouth kung fu is good, It's just that I'm not making things difficult for Brother Zhou, "The rules of the Linglong Pavilion are like this. The closer the Chongju Peak is to the peak, the more abundant the spiritual energy of heaven and earth will be. It is a long-established rule for personal disciples to determine their residence based on their strength. I feel that Senior Brother Zhou's residence is not bad, so I want to challenge Senior Brother Zhou. However, Senior Brother Zhou doesn't dare to fight. I am only following the rules, right?" Tong Tiexin , who had calmed down, quickly adjusted her mood and looked at Xu Han. However, the provocative tone in her tone was not concealed.

"Nonsense! Senior Brother Zhou lives in the outer perimeter of his personal disciple's residence. Where do you want to live? You must come and snatch Senior Brother Zhou's residence. I think you are deliberately looking for trouble." Hearing this, Song Yueming , who had originally wanted to persuade Xu Han not to be impulsive, immediately blew up. He didn't want to pass it on to the inner sect. He pointed at Tong Tiexin 's nose and scolded.

" Song Yueming , I see that you are young and ignorant and don't have the same knowledge as you. I will follow the rules and live wherever I want. If you continue to speak nonsense and ruin my reputation, I will take you to Martial Uncle Ding of the Sword Hall to have a good discussion!" Tong Tiexin 's expression sank as he shouted.

"What are you guys waiting for? Move it for me!" Behind them, Meng Shuge and the others were also attracted by the commotion and stopped for a moment. Tong Tiexin turned around and shouted at them. Meng Shuge regained his senses and his expression became even more serious. He had successively suffered defeat in Xu Han's hands several times. Today, he had finally found an opportunity, so he was naturally complacent in his heart.

He winked at the disciples who were in charge of transporting the bookshelves. Those disciples knowingly threw the bookshelves on the ground harder and harder. Immediately, the books scattered all over the ground, appearing to be in a mess.

Seeing this scene, Song Yueming 's face instantly turned purple. He looked at Tong Tiexin and the others with a face full of resentment and extreme anger.

"Brother Xu, Brother Song, Big Brother Chu , don't be angry. Junior Brother Tong also acts according to the rules of the mountain gate. I, Zhou, am not good at learning." On the other hand, Zhou Zhang spoke at that time with a calm expression on his face. There was actually not the slightest bit of dissatisfaction on his face.

After saying that, he lowered his body and began to slowly tidy up the books on the ground.

He did it very seriously. Every bit of snow on every book was cleaned up by him. If some pages were soaked in snow, he would mark them and put them aside. He thought that they would be ready to dry.

Song Yueming couldn't bear to watch anymore. He knew that even Meng Shuge wouldn't be a match for his own cultivation, not to mention Tong Tiexin 's three direct disciples. Therefore, he could only glared fiercely at the arrogant Tong Tiexin , then crouched down and helped Zhou Zhang sort out the scattered books on the ground.

"Brother Song, Brother Zhou."

At this moment, Xu Han, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke.

His voice was very deep, as deep as a thousand-year-old tree or a ten thousand-year-old well.

Zhou Zhang and Song Yueming were stunned. They turned to look at Xu Han, only to see that the youth's expression was ice-cold. It was as if there was a layer of wind and snow covering him. He did not reveal his face, but it was bone-piercing.

"What? Is Young Master Xu dissatisfied with the rules of our Exquisite Pavilion?" Tong Tiexin , who seemed to have noticed Xu Han's peculiarity and was afraid that he would swallow his anger, hurriedly asked.

He impatiently waited for Xu Han to make his move. At that time, he would be able to teach this underestimated enemy a lesson.

With his cultivation at the Three Origin Realm, it seemed to him that it would be a piece of cake to take care of Xu Han, whose meridians were completely severed. As long as he grasped his limits and didn't cause any casualties, even if the Sect Leader were to pursue the matter, he wouldn't be afraid. Thinking of this, Tong Tiexin 's lips curled into a cruel smile. He seemed to have seen Xu Han kneeling at his feet and begging for mercy.

At that time, Song Yueming regained his senses. He was afraid that Xu Han would fall for Tong Tiexin 's trickery on impulse, so he immediately wanted to remind him.

"But I'm a little dissatisfied."

However, at that moment, Xu Han's deep voice sounded again. He slowly put down the black cat on his shoulder and stood straight. His gaze was cold as he looked straight at Tong Tiexin in front of him.

"Is that so? It's easy." The smile on Tong Tiexin 's face became even more intense. "Senior Brother Zhou is unwilling to bully me and not fight with me. Then Young Master Xu will fight with me on behalf of Senior Brother Zhou. How about it?"

"That's exactly what I meant." Xu Han stretched out his hand to brush off the snow stains on his clothes and replied almost as soon as Tong Tiexin made this suggestion.

Xu Han's straightforwardness far exceeded Tong Tiexin's expectations, but seeing her plan succeed, Tong Tiexin had no time to think about the reason behind it.

He took a step forward and looked at Xu Han provocatively. He smiled sinisterly and said, " Young Master Xu , don't worry, you are the guest sect master. According to the rules of my Exquisite Pavilion, I will act appropriately."

"Hmm? The rules of the Exquisite Pavilion? I, Xu, am not clear about the rules of the Exquisite Pavilion. I only know the rules of Jianghu." Xu Hanyan said with a smile on his face. " Big Brother Chu , tell me about the rules."

The bearded middle-aged man grinned.

"Jianghu is a matter of Jianghu."

"The grudge dissipated with a single sword strike."

"Life and death are at stake."
