Chapter 25: Crash the Party

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The alcohol got to his head, and He Ping became a chatterbox. He pulled Zhou You along and asked him all sorts of questions.

Zhou You was tired of talking to him. After some time, He Ping finally left him alone.

Before he was able to enjoy his peace enough, Zhao Qing walked over, reeking of alcohol.

“Junior Brother Zhou, are you interested in any of these pretty girls?”

Originally, Zhao Qing was so intoxicated by the women around him that he could not find his directions. Unexpectedly, Eldest Senior Brother called him over and tasked him with the mission involving Zhou You.

The mission was very simple. It was to introduce girls to Zhou You.

After some thought, Zhao Qing understood Eldest Senior Brother’s intentions.

Eldest Senior Brother was already 33 years old this year. In the next sect tournament, he would have already passed the threshold of 35 years old and could no longer represent the dojo to participate.

This time, he would not only focus on martial arts like before. Instead, he would start taking over the affairs of the dojo and start a family.

In a few years, when his master was old, he would pass the position of dojo master to his eldest senior brother.

Since Eldest Senior Brother would become the dojo master, he naturally had to nurture his own team. Apothecaries were indispensable.

Master Cheng was about the same age as Lu Chuanfeng. When Lu Chuanfeng retired, he would probably take the opportunity to retire along with Lu Chuanfeng.

The person who took over the apothecary would be his only disciple, Zhou You.

Now, Lu Li wanted to introduce Zhou You to a woman from a good family with close ties to him. If he succeeded, Zhou You would definitely be closer to the dojo in the future.

“Senior Brother Zhao, you must be joking. I’m still young and haven’t graduated yet. How would I dare to have improper thoughts?” Zhou You shook his head and refused.

“Junior Brother, you’re wrong. As the saying goes, men should start a family before starting a career. Family comes first and career second.”

Zhao Qing shook his head. “Besides, although you haven’t finished your apprenticeship yet, you can already refine Blood Strengthening Pills. Also, your income is quite decent. You should have a family and children to strengthen the Zhou family’s bloodline. I’m sure that’s what your parents want.”

Without waiting for Zhou You to answer, Zhao Qing looked around the crowd and pointed in a certain direction.

“Junior Brother Zhou, the tall girl with long legs and flawless complexion on the left, is the eldest daughter of the Liu family, Liu Ruyi. She’s 16 years old and smart. She’s already working in her family’s fabric store.”

“In the future, she would definitely be a good wife. It would be a real blessing to marry her.”

“Junior Brother, what do you think of her? Do you want me to introduce you to her and try to get together with her?”

“The two of you have already started working to earn money. You should have common topics to talk about.”

Zhou You followed Zhao Qing’s finger and looked over. She was indeed a beauty. Her posture was dignified, and her taste in clothes was extremely outstanding among the girls. She looked rather smart.

However, although she was beautiful, she was not his cup of tea.

Besides, he was only fifteen years old this year and his martial arts had yet to break through the Purification Stage. He had no plans to start a family for the time being.

Master Lu valued him so much. If he knew that Zhao Qing had introduced someone to him, would he break his legs?

Zhou You looked at Zhao Qing playfully and rejected him tactfully, “Senior Brother Zhao, I don’t like people older than me.”

Zhao Qing was stunned.

Only then did he realize that Junior Brother Zhou was so young.

It was just that Junior Brother Zhou usually did things with composure. When they interacted with each other, it felt like they were of the same age and not a youth who had yet to come of age.

Perhaps this was how hardships made people grow.

He was not embarrassed. He pointed at another petite girl with baby fat on her face and introduced her to Zhou You.

“This is Landlord Chen’s youngest daughter. She should be thirteen years old this year. One look and you can tell that she’s a beauty.”

“If you’re interested in her, you could get engaged first and marry her in two years.”

“Landlord Chen has a lot of land in the countryside and his family background is okay. However, he has no connections in the city. He could only attend this banquet because of his relationship with Third Senior Brother.”

“If Third Senior Brother puts in a good word for you, I’m sure he won’t say no.”

Thirteen?

Zhou You went speechless.

This age… was simply incredible.

Although he had accepted many things about this time, there were some cultures Zhou You could not condone from this era.

“Thank you for your kindness, Senior Brother Zhao. However, I don’t have any plans to start a family for the time being, so I won’t trouble you.” Zhou You refused again, his tone firm.

Sensing Zhou You’s attitude, Zhao Qing scratched his head and did not introduce any more women to him. After exchanging a few pleasantries, he walked towards a group of women.

He was at the critical Purification Stage, so he had no intention of really finding a partner to use his essence elsewhere.

However, just looking at them was very pleasing to the eye. The words ‘big brother’ were also very pleasant to his ears, making him feel happy.

Finally, it was quiet. Zhou You heaved a sigh of relief. He stood up and walked around. He carried a few snacks back to the corner and prepared to eat heartily.

At this moment, there was a commotion outside.

“The sixth floor is reserved by the Ferocious Tiger Fist Dojo. Stop, or don’t blame me for being impolite!”

“Ferocious Tiger Fist Dojo? Who do you think you are? Get lost!”

“Watch your tongue, or don’t blame me…”

“Watch my tongue? How shameless can you get? What do you plan on doing about it?”

…

The noise outside became louder and louder, and the sound resounded throughout the hall.

The expressions of the disciples of the dojo immediately darkened. Many of them stood up angrily and walked towards the door.

The people outside were so arrogant. They did not take the Ferocious Tiger Fist Dojo seriously.

The disciples treated the dojo as half their family, if not more. They could not tolerate outsiders insulting them.

However, before they could reach the door, they heard a loud crack. The door opened with a bang and a figure flew in from the outside.

Swoosh!

Among all the disciples of the Ferocious Tiger Fist Dojo in the hall, Luo Jin was the closest. He immediately got up and rushed over when he noticed the conflict outside. At this moment, he happened to be at the front.

When he saw the junior brother guarding the door sent flying in, his anger immediately surged. He quickly walked forward and reached out to scoop him up.

As soon as he touched his junior brother’s back, a force that exceeded his expectations came, and his feet were involuntarily lifted off the ground.

Luo Jin’s expression changed. He immediately took a deep breath and shifted his center of gravity downwards. At the same time, he exerted strength in his waist and abdomen. He tapped the ground with his front foot and spun on the spot two and a half times like a top before he could stabilize himself and gently put his junior brother down.

“Cool!”

“Beautiful! Senior Brother Luo has such nimble moves!”

Luo Jin was carrying someone in his arms. His clothes fluttered in the wind, attracting a round of flattery from people outside of the martial arts trade.

However, as soon as the last man spoke, things went quiet. The intruders shot murderous gazes at him. Instantly, he shrunk his neck like a quail and did not dare to say anything else.

Luo Jin felt extremely awkward, but at this moment, he had no time to pay attention to it. He looked at the door with a solemn expression.

The other disciples consciously stood behind Luo Jin, forming a human wall. Their eyes were cold and angry as they looked outside.

The Meng clan disciples lagged behind and watched coldly from the side.

Although the Meng family had paid for this welcome banquet and organized it with the Ferocious Tiger Fist Dojo, the main star for the night was the Ferocious Tiger Fist Dojo.

If someone dared to cause trouble for the Ferocious Tiger Fist Dojo in Full Moon Inn, they would not stand up for them even though they had put the Meng family in the spot.

The Meng family would only demand the other party to apologize later.

The Meng Family was the sky of Mengyang City.

Regardless of the conflict, the Meng family would not be at the forefront.

But in the end, the Meng family would always benefit the most.

This was the Meng family’s way of life.
