The sword light was like a fleeting shadow, disappearing in an instant. Before anyone could react, Lin Yuantu had already retracted his sword.
Bai Zhantang's pupils suddenly constricted. As the former God Thief of Jiangnan, his eyesight was essential.
Among everyone present, only he had truly seen that sword move clearly.
Bai Zhantang's hand slowly reached out to the bowl in the middle of the desk. With a light touch, the bowl, which seemed to be unscathed, shattered into four pieces.
Lin Yuantu had already struck out two swords, one vertical and one horizontal, in that split second that no one could react to.
Moreover, the strength of each sword was just right, perfectly not revealing a trace of power. As a result, the sword edge had already retracted, but the porcelain bowl had not cracked.
This kind of power was not something that ordinary people could possess. At this moment, Bai Zhantang truly paid attention to Zhu Houzhao and his group. He knew that the nameless swordsman alone was strong enough to suppress Ji Wuming.
" Little Guo, they…" Bai Zhantang wanted to ask.
Guo Furong looked at the faint smile on Zhu Houzhao's face and said helplessly,"Although this scum is not a good person, the people under him are still capable. With him around, Ji Wuming did not have to be afraid.”
After saying that, Guo Furong rolled her eyes, threw the broom away, and went back to her room.
No one knew Zhu Houzhao's identity better than she did. Therefore, no one was more assured than her about Lin Yuantu's strength.
To be able to protect the Crown Prince, let alone one Ji Wuming, even if there were ten Ji Wuming attacking together, they would not be able to do anything to him.
Zhu Houzhao smiled slightly and did not care about Guo Furong's attitude towards him. He paid the hotel fee and booked three rooms.
After spending some money, he hired a professional doctor in Qixia Town to diagnose Hoodlum's pulse and perform acupuncture. He also boiled some medicine and fed it to him. It was already midnight when Hoodlum finally woke up.
"You saved me?" Looking at Zhu Houzhao, who was sitting by the bed with a smile on his face, the 15 or 16-year-old Hoodlum's face was filled with indifference. There was not a trace of childishness that his age should have.
"Yes," Zhu Houzhao said with a smile.
" I'll pay you back," Hoodlum said calmly.
"How?" Zhu Houzhao's smile remained.”
Ah Fei was stunned. He didn't expect Zhu Houzhao to be so straightforward.
It was simple, pure, and straightforward. Hoodlum seemed to like such a simple way of talking.
Hoodlum's gaze softened a little, but his expression was a little awkward.
How could he repay the favor of saving his life?
Hoodlum wasn't someone who could afford to owe a favor. He wasn't even willing to owe Li Xunhuan a glass of wine, let alone a life.
How could he return this favor?
" I will save your life in the future," Hoodlum said firmly.
The smile on Zhu Houzhao's face became more obvious.""If you want to save me, then you should be by my side when I'm in danger.”
" No one knows when they will encounter fatal danger," Zhu Houzhao continued.
Hoodlum was silent for a long time before he opened his mouth.""So, I have to follow you until you are in danger. Only then can I have a chance to save you?”
" I have an expert by my side, an expert who is even stronger than you. If I encounter danger that I can't resist, you won't be able to save me!" Zhu Houzhao said.”
" You can take back my life," Hoodlum stared at Zhu Houzhao and said calmly," I can't follow you forever.”
Hoodlum's words were cold and emotionless. He was an indifferent person who didn't care about anything, including his life. If he was willing to become a sword in someone else's hand for the sake of saving his life, he wouldn't care.
This wasn't Hoodlum's true intention.
"Why can't you follow me all the time?”Zhu Houzhao seemed to have predicted what Hoodlum wanted to say and smiled.
" Because I want to be famous," Hoodlum said." I want to be the most famous person in the world, not a servant."”
"Famous?" Zhu Houzhao smiled." Everyone wants to be famous. At least you're more honest than others.”
"I'm different from others. I have to become famous. If I don't become famous, I'll die!”Hoodlum's words were firm and filled with grief and indignation, as if he was hiding many secrets.
His background was a mystery, but it was obviously filled with grief and misfortune. Perhaps, the fame he wanted was related to his background.
" A dragon that follows a divine dragon may not necessarily be lowly, and a lone wolf that walks alone in the wilderness may not necessarily be noble," Zhu Houzhao said calmly." Follow me and you'll get the fame you want.”
Hoodlum's eyes flashed.""Really?"
" Three years," Zhu Houzhao said with a smile." If you follow me, I will make you famous in the Ming Dynasty and the world within three years. If you can't do it, the kindness I owe you for saving your life today will disappear in three years."”
Hoodlum fell silent.
At this moment, time seemed to have stopped. Even Zhu Houzhao, who had planned everything, could not help but feel a little nervous because the relationship was too big.
Finally, Hoodlum nodded under Zhu Houzhao's expectant gaze.""Three years?"
" Yes." Zhu Houzhao smiled and vowed," Three years."”
Three years? Zhu Houzhao's lips curled into a smile. How was that possible?
