Chapter 391 Nice Place

When Xu Han returned to the inn.

The battle between Chu Chouli, Yan Zhan, and Ning Zhumang was coming to an end.

Chu Chouli and Yan Zhan hooked their shoulders, their faces flushed red as they did not know what they were talking about. However, that intimate expression seemed to wish that they could immediately pledge blood to form a golden orchid for Alliance Righteousness.

Ning Zhumang was still sitting on the side with an indifferent expression, quietly drinking and pouring.

Seeing this, Xu Han shook his head helplessly and sat beside Ning Zhumang.

"How many?" He glanced at the two people who were already unconscious and asked.

"Eight jars." Headmaster Ning's answer was simple and straightforward.

"Where's Master Wei?" Xu Han did not have the mood to carefully investigate why the two of them had carefully planned their strategy to the point of injuring one hundred enemies and damaging eight thousand oneself. He turned around and asked in this manner.

"He hasn't returned yet." Ning Zhumang shook his head.

This answer stunned Xu Han, "Hmm?"

He raised his head to look at the night outside the window. However, because of the snow, he couldn't see the moonlight and naturally could not judge roughly two hours. However, he still felt that Master Wei had returned a little late today.

Thinking of this, his brows furrowed slightly.

Seemingly seeing through his worries, Ning Zhumang drank another mouthful of sake at that time and said indifferently, "Perhaps it was the snow that delayed him greatly. With Teacher's ability, nothing will happen."

"Oh." Xu Han nodded and found a clean glass on the table. He poured himself a glass of sake and raised his head to drink it.

Then, the youth with the white cloth tied to his right arm smiled craftily at Ning Zhumang and said, "I say, Uncle Ning, what kind of romantic debt did you owe to make my Second Martial Niang hate you to the bone?"

Sitting upright, Headmaster Ning glanced sideways at Xu Han and said, "I thought that only the two of them had such thoughts."

"Haha." Hearing this, Xu Han smiled and said, "I'm just curious. I'm just curious."

Finally, Xu Han saw Ning Zhumang's indifferent expression and said, "Actually, this person is not a romantic youth, and Uncle Ning doesn't need to hide anything."

"Is that so?" Ning Zhumang asked, his gaze glancing behind Xu Han. A smile suddenly appeared on his face.

Xu Han also sensed something different from Ning Zhumang's strange gaze. He subconsciously turned around and saw Zhen Yue leading Hu Ma and the others who had already appeared at the entrance of the inn.

The woman in tight clothes gritted her teeth and walked to Xu Han's side. She lowered her head and blushed. She did not say anything, but her delicate daughter's posture was extremely lovely.

At that time, Ning Zhumang stood up and signaled for Zhen Yue to take his seat. Then, he patted Xu Han's shoulder and winked at him mockingly, saying, "Well said, he is not a romantic young man."

…

Master Wei came back a lot later than usual.

He seemed to be in poor health. Xu Han noticed that his face was rather pale. He originally wanted to ask but was perfunctorily dealt with by the other party. Xu Han was not good at investigating further.

On the second day, when everyone set off again, Master Wei seemed to have gotten up a little later than usual. However, because Yan Zhan and Chu Chouli, two big men who had yet to wake up from their hangovers, needed to be taken care of, most of them did not pay attention to this.

At this moment, the four Diamonds that Zhen Yue had brought with him were of use. They helped Yan Zhan, Chu Chou, and Chou Li go on their way in twos and twos.

Today was the New Year's Eve. Master Wei said that there must be a lot more pedestrians on the streets today than before, so he had to feel their next destination, Ding Man City in Yan Zhou, before dark!

After entering Yan Zhou, the main point of the journey, Heng Imperial City, was close at hand. Xu Han had calculated that he would arrive in less than four to five days. The closer he got to the capital of Great Xia, the more prosperous the cities that everyone passed by would become.

This Savage Setting City was considered one of the top ten cities in Great Xia. No wonder Master Wei cared so much.

However, what Xu Han couldn't understand was why an expert at Master Wei 's realm would still value these silver coins.

…

According to the plan, everyone arrived at Ding Man City smoothly before nightfall.

Just as Master Wei had expected, the New Year's Pass was approaching, and there were endless pedestrians coming and going on the streets, almost squeezing the entire Ding Man City. Even the beds in the inn were rather nervous. Everyone ran to several inns before finding suitable accommodation.

Perhaps it was because they drank too much yesterday, or perhaps it was because the New Year was coming, Yan Zhan and Chu Chouli did not pull Ning Zhumang to fight again. Instead, the drunken Chu Chouli talked to the shopkeeper, took the kitchen, bought some ingredients, and personally cooked and threatened to cook a good meal for everyone.

However, Master Wei did not feel at ease enjoying the delicious meal. He hurriedly ate two steamed buns and was about to leave the stall. Xu Han was somewhat worried and went with the other party, saying that he wanted to take care of them. However, Zhen Yue did not know what he was thinking, but actually followed him. This inevitably attracted a burst of ridicule from everyone.

The matter of setting up a stall for Master Wei is not complicated.

It was nothing more than placing the stool that the old man took out from the wooden box and finding a place where he could stand and listen to the guests. Xu Han and Zhen Yue easily solved this problem.

"Ding Man City is a famous bustling town in Great Xia. This old man can do it by himself. The two of you will have a good stroll. It's not a waste of your trip to take a look." After all this was done, Master Wei smiled and said to Xu Han and Zhen Yueyan.

Hearing this, Xu Han pondered for a moment before agreeing in surprise. This action caused the beautiful eyes of the woman beside him to shine brightly.

…

The phrase "mountains of people and seas of people" was most suitable for Ding Man City at this moment.

The shouts of the peddlers echoed endlessly. The children's playfulness and the elders' laughter merged into one, rippling on the streets of Ding Man City.

This is supposed to be a beautiful scenery.

Unfortunately, Xu Han did not have the heart to appreciate it.

He lowered his eyebrows and walked amidst the crowd. It was better to say that he was strolling around than immersing himself in his own world.

Zhen Yue walked beside Xu Han with her hands behind her back. She glanced sideways at the youth beside her. His furrowed brows and tense face carried a sense of serenity that did not match his age.

Zhen Yue couldn't imagine what Xu Han had experienced, but she couldn't help but stare at the youth's face for a while longer.

Until the youth seemed to feel something as he raised his head and met Zhen Yue's gaze.

The woman was stunned at that time and subconsciously wanted to withdraw her gaze. However, at that time, she seemed to suddenly recall something. Her body trembled and she gritted her teeth. She strangely chose not to dodge and not to dodge. She looked straight at Xu Han's gaze.

Neither of them spoke.

Xu Han's gaze was calm, just like the expression on his face, making it difficult for Zhen Yue to peek at the youth's current state of mind.

In the end, she couldn't stand this kind of gaze. After more than ten breaths of time, she was defeated. He and her face flushed as she withdrew her gaze. "Why are you looking at me like this?"

Xu Han did not answer her question. After that, he also withdrew his gaze and walked towards the end of the street again.

Seeing this, Zhen Yue could only follow quickly.

After taking a few steps, Xu Han stopped beside a vendor who was using the excuse.

That was the place to buy and sell some small accessories. Naturally, these items were not for men to use. Apart from Zhen Yue and Xue Ning, there were no other women in Xu Han's group.

It was impossible for Xu Han to give something like this to Xue Ning…

Thinking of this, Zhen Yue, who was standing beside Xu Han, blushed.

She stood quietly at the side and carefully selected the accessories with a serious expression on Xu Han's face. In the end, she took out a bell tied with red threads.

"Does it look good?" He held the bell and shook it slightly in front of Zhen Yue. The bell let out a crisp sound, and the sound landed in Zhen Yue's ears was as moving as the best music in the world.

"Mm! It looks good." Apart from Hu Ma and the others, Zhen Yue, who had never received any gifts from the opposite sex, nodded without thinking at that time, and the blush on her face became even more intense at that time.

Xu Han put the bell in Zhen Yue's hand as if he hadn't noticed her abnormality and paid the shop owner's praise. Only then did he lead Zhen Yue out of the crowded downtown.

After crossing a few more blocks, the two of them turned into a deserted alley.

Xu Han, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped. This caused Zhen Yue, who was holding the bell behind her, to be stunned. At that moment, she also hurriedly stopped.

She looked around and discovered that there was no one around. Her heart immediately tightened. Her gaze towards Xu Han became somewhat terrified, but there was indeed some expectation in her heart.

Xu Han looked at her at that time.

His eyes shone brightly, and his expression was intriguing.

Zhen Yue was so uncomfortable that she subconsciously wanted to avoid Xu Han's gaze. But at that time, Xu Han reached out and took the bell from Zhen Yue's hand.

"Do you like it?" He then asked in an extremely low tone.

At this time, he was extremely close to Zhen Yue, and the hot air he exhaled when he spoke slapped on Zhen Yue's face, causing the girl's face to turn even redder.

"Yes." She nodded, her voice inaudible.

"That's good." Xu Han smiled. It was at that moment that he gently put the bell around Zhen Yue's arm. Zhen Yue, who had never been in such close contact with the opposite sex, was frozen in place at that moment. It was as if someone had cast a Body Stabilization Curse and was unable to move.

"Do you know why I brought you here?" Xu Han's voice sounded again at that moment.

Hearing this, Zhen Yue immediately felt as if her heart was about to jump out of her chest. She could clearly hear her heartbeat and could also feel the burning heat on her face that seemed to be melting her.

"Coming." She thought to herself, but because of the woman's reserved attitude, she shook her head, but her body became even more tense.

"Because" Xu Han's lips leaned against her ears, his tone becoming more and more strange. The hot air hit Zhen Yue's earlobe, making the woman feel numb.

"What a…"

"A good place to kill and silence people!"

At that moment, Xu Han's voice suddenly became cold and filled with killing intent. At that moment, he stretched out his hand and grabbed her neck. Then, under Zhen Yue's surprised gaze, Xu Han lifted her body high up like this…
