In the carriage, Shang Yuan sat on the innermost seat. The soft cushion and comfortable backrest made it so that even though the carriage was a little bumpy, it did not feel uncomfortable.
On the two sides of the carriage, Zhou Fu and the old man sat opposite each other.
"Kid, don't think that you can sit back and relax just because you've swindled my young master's trust. Hmph!
When my young master wakes up from your bewitchment, I'll let you know what cruelty is. "
Facing the old man's cold words, Zhou Fu opened his eyes and grinned. He did not reply and closed his eyes again.
At this time, he was recalling the feeling of using Firefly in his mind.
In his sea of consciousness, the ten fingers of the Buddha's shadow were constantly flashing as hand seals flowed out.
In between Zhou Fu's eyebrows, there was a trace of coolness.
His understanding of [Firefly] was increasing.
As long as he was given time, he would be able to convert this understanding into battle strength. Then he was confident that he could fight against a First Blood Transformation Realm expert.
This was not a sneak attack, but a direct confrontation.
"Kid, what is the meaning of this?!" The old man's face darkened and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
He was already unhappy with Zhou Fu and had endured for the entire journey in the carriage. When he could no longer bear it, he mocked him.
He knew that Zhou Fu did not dare to be sarcastic, but he did not expect Zhou Fu to laugh at him.
This laugh was instantly filled with sarcasm.
Hearing the old man's tone that was about to explode, the Buddha's shadow in Zhou Fu's sea of consciousness stopped forming seals. Its pale golden eyes were half-open, and rays of golden light were rotating in its translucent body.
Zhou Fu looked at the old man and said, "Junior thinks that senior is right."
"You …"
This one sentence made the old man speechless.
Shang Yuan, who was sitting on the cushion, laughed out loud.
This was the first time he saw the old man suffer, and he felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.
At the same time, he looked at Zhou Fu with some surprise.
Perhaps the old man could not feel it, but Shang Yuan felt it clearly.
Just now, Zhou Fu's Qi and blood had emitted a strange fluctuation.
He was very familiar with this fluctuation. It was Firefly.
Shang Yuan did not expect that the student he took in by accident would have such an understanding of Firefly.
He originally thought that it would take at least two months for Zhou Fu to reach this stage.
"That's enough. Zhou Fu is my student. He can be considered half your master. Don't be rude," Shang Yuan said.
Upon hearing this, the old man's face turned pale with anger. He stared blankly at Zhou Fu, who was also Shang Yuan's half-master.
Because the person who spoke was Shang Yuan, the old man did not dare to refute.
His chest was filled with anger, and his Qi and blood almost stopped circulating.
The carriage was quiet for a while.
The old man said to Shang Yuan, "Young Master, if your family finds out that you've taken in a disciple outside …"
Without waiting for the old man to finish, Shang Yuan looked at him with a faint smile on his face. However, there was a cold expression on his young face.
He interrupted the old man. His tone was a little angry and cold. "I won't tell anyone about this. Even if Zhou Fu did, he wouldn't be able to pass it on. You tell me, who can?"
The old man shuddered and rolled down from his seat. He lowered his head and said, "Young Master, this is a serious matter. I …"
"Shut up!" Shang Yuan's face was red with anger.
It was the same again. Throughout the journey, the old man had been treating him like this, and it made him feel very depressed.
The old man lowered his head and did not say anything else.
After a moment of silence, the old man was about to get up when Shang Yuan said coldly, "Kneel."
"Yes."
The atmosphere in the carriage became solemn.
As the carriage shook, Zhou Fu half-closed his eyes again. The Qi and blood in his body slowly vibrated. At times, they slowly scattered into blood-colored spots, and at other times, they condensed into a ball.
"Sir, we've arrived at the restaurant."
The coachman's voice could be heard from outside the carriage.
The three of them alighted from the carriage. Under the guidance of the servant, they arrived at a quiet courtyard.
Zhou Fu said, "Teacher, let's rest here tonight. Time is tight, and the things here are a little crude."
Shang Yuan looked around with interest and nodded. "It's fine. You have to hurry up with the task I assigned to you."
Just as Zhou Fu was about to nod, a guard hurried over.
"Sir, there's news about the person you're looking for."
This speed surprised Zhou Fu. Just as he was about to speak, a figure appeared in front of the guard.
The guard was startled. He knew that the person in the room was an important person. Therefore, he turned to look at Zhou Fu.
After Zhou Fu nodded, the guard said, "Someone saw that girl at the pier. She was taken away by Blind He's men."
"Who is Blind He?"
The guard looked at Zhou Fu again.
Zhou Fu said, "His orders are my orders. Speak."
"Yes!"
The guard looked at Shang Yuan in astonishment and said, "Blind He is a human trafficker at the east pier."
When the words' human trafficker 'entered Zhou Fu's ears, he knew that something bad was going to happen.
Shang Yuan asked again, "What's a human trafficker?"
"Young master, a human trafficker is a human trafficker. They trade people as goods."
After hearing the explanation, Shang Yuan got angry. "I was the one who took a liking to that girl first …"
The guard opened his eyes wide and looked at Shang Yuan in disbelief.
Damn, how old is this kid? The smell of milk on his body hasn't dissipated, and he's already snatching people?
Zhou Fu sighed in his heart. He knew that Shang Yuan didn't mean it this way, but he didn't intend to explain.
He ordered the guard, "Gather 50 people and follow me to meet this Blind He."
After receiving Zhou Fu's order, the guard didn't turn around and leave as usual. Instead, he looked at Zhou Fu with a troubled expression.
"Sir … this Blind He has some background. He's a member of the Red Sea gang."
"Red Sea gang?" Zhou Fu frowned. "Since when did the Red Sea gang become a human trafficker?"
"This … I don't know."
"Forget it. Don't bother about the Red Sea gang. Find this Blind He's lair and himself."
The guard said, "Sir, we've already investigated.
Blind He brought a batch of 'goods' and went to the Red Sea gang's base.
And that little girl is inside. "
Red Sea gang …
Zhou Fu sighed again. This was really a case of enemies meeting on a narrow path.
He planned to make a move against the Red Sea gang and the Iron Tiger in a few days.
It seemed that he couldn't wait until then.
Zhou Fu said, "Gather everyone and go to the Red Sea gang's base!"
"Yes!"
After the guard received the order, he turned around and ran out.
Zhou Fu said to Shang Yuan, "Teacher, I'll be back soon."
Shang Yuan nodded and said, "Okay."
… …
"Sir, the carriage and the men are ready."
Jin Peng came to Zhou Fu's side and said. There was still some hesitation on his face as he asked, "Sir, are we really going to break ties with the Red Sea gang today?"
Zhou Fu knew that Jin Peng was hesitating. After all, this was a matter between the two biggest gangs on the East Pier. As long as there was a conflict, it wouldn't be a small matter.
As long as they fought this time, it wouldn't be as quiet as the previous time.
"Break ties?
How is that possible? I'm just going to find an old friend to drink tea and reminisce about the past. Let's go! "
