Chapter 488: Chi Guyan as a bedwarmer?

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

“Do you really think that my cultivation has been ruined?” Fang Zhengzhi smirked as he looked at Chi Hou.

“Am I… mistaken?” Chi Hou hesitated as he stared at Fang Zhengzhi, a faint glow in his eyes.

He suddenly realized that no one had verified this information. After his duel with Canyang, the consensus was that his cultivation was likely to be ruined…

But…

Since no one had verified it, Fang Zhengzhi may still have his powers!

He was stunned when he thought about this.

Still had his cultivation?

If he could duel Canyang over a year ago, how powerful would he be now if he could still cultivate?

Terrifying!

That was the only way Chi Hou could describe it. Of course, the even more terrifying thing was that Fang Zhengzhi was still below 18.

He wasn’t 18 yet…

The Double Dragon Roll Champion would shock the world!

“Haha, I was just kidding. I’m sure you didn’t take me seriously!” Fang Zhengzhi chuckled and began butchering the beast on the rack.

He cut through it slowly because of the toughness of the hide. This seemed to require a lot of effort and he didn’t use any powers to help him butcher the beast.

Then, he placed the meat in pre-prepared bowls and handed one to Chi Hou.

“Please try it.”

“Sure, I heard from Chi Guyan that your skills are excellent! I will not hold back now!” Chi Hou nodded and looked away from Fang Zhengzhi. He was extremely excited. However, in his excitement, his hands shuddered and a piece of meat fell out of his chopsticks…

And onto the floor.

At the same time, Chi Hou looked at Fang Zhengzhi.

Fang Zhengzhi’s hands moved.

They moved the moment the meat fell to the ground. He thrust his knife at the piece of meat, his movements fluid.

Chi Hou’s eyes glimmered and he flicked his fingers.

“Clang!” The knife hit the meat, but it was almost as if it had clashed with a resistive force.

Then…

The meat fell to the ground and became contaminated by dirt.

Fang Zhengzhi shook his head when he saw the piece of meat on the ground. However, he didn’t say anything. He simply passed Chi Hou another piece of meat.

Chi Hou didn’t say anything when he received it. He held it with his chopsticks. He didn’t drop it this time.

He bit into it.

His mouth was filled with that intense flavor.

“Hahaha… Chi Guyan was right! This meat is exquisite! It is one of the best I’ve ever eaten!” Chi Hou chuckled.

“It is a pity that we wasted one piece.” Fang Zhengzhi shook his head lightly as he looked at the piece of meat on the floor.

“Waste?” Chi Hou squinted as he looked at that piece of meat. Then, he smiled, “When I was fighting the barbarians, I ate everything, including tree bark! What is a little bit of dirt?”

Chi Hou extended his hand.

The piece of meat on the floor appeared between his chopsticks. He put it in his mouth without hesitation. He didn’t even wipe the dirt off the meat.

Fang Zhengzhi didn’t stop Chi Hou. All he cared about was cutting off another piece of meat for himself.

“Actually, we can’t finish so much meat either. Even if we drop one piece on the ground, it’s not much of a waste.” Fang Zhengzhi explained.

“You rascal. Enough of your nonsense. When do we return to the capital?” Chi Hou didn’t wait for Fang Zhengzhi to carve out another piece for him. He simply tore a chunk of meat away with his hands.

“My lord, if you are in a hurry, you can leave first.”

“Leave first? You rascal… what do you mean by that?” Chi Hou hesitated.

“I do not plan on returning to the capital with you.” Fang Zhengzhi replied.

“You don’t plan on returning to the capital with me? According to my intel, the Crown Prince’s men are already on their way. Without me, you will not be able to get to the capital! The people around you are not enough!” Chi Hou asserted.

“That might be the case, but I have no intention of pledging allegiance to King Duan. How can I have you escort me in that case?” Fang Zhengzhi replied.

“You… rascal! Other then the Crown Prince, King Duan is the only person you can pledge allegiance to. Are you really going to align yourself with the Crown Prince?” Chi Hou’s expression changed.

“Can I choose neither?” Fang Zhengzhi asked.

“No!”

“Okay then… if that is the case, I have a condition of my own.” Fang Zhengzhi waved his hands when he saw Chi Hou’s expression.

“I knew that you would have some conditions. Tell me, what do you want? Money or treasure? I will give you whatever you need within my abilities.” Chi Hou replied.

If Fang Zhengzhi didn’t take this opportunity to get something for himself, he wouldn’t believe that Fang Zhengzhi was going to be loyal to King Duan.

“Let Chi Guyan be my bed warmer.” Fang Zhengzhi replied.

“What?! You rascal… that’s impossible! I wouldn’t even let her marry you, much less be a bed warmer! I can’t make decisions for her! Ask me for something else!”

Chi Hou nearly dropped the piece of meat in his hands when he heard this request.

“I don’t have any other conditions.” Fang Zhengzhi shook his head in disappointment.

“Fang Zhengzhi, I am a rank one official and general of the Great Xia! I marched for 48 hours straight to get here when I heard you returned. I have given you more than you deserve! Don’t push your limits!” Chi Hou fumed.

“Are you going to flip out on me?” Fang Zhengzhi seemed to panic when he saw this.

“Aish… even though we got off on the wrong foot when we first met in the Divine Constabulary, I do not hate you. Furthermore, with all that you had done for the Great Xia in the war, I do not want you to die!” Chi Hou sighed and shook his head.

“I chose the path myself, and I will keep walking it. Since you can’t make Chi Guyan my bed warmer, I will have to do it myself.” Fang Zhengzhi nodded.

“You are telling me that you can make Chi Guyan your bed warmer?” Chi Hou was stunned to hear this.

“Mm.” Fang Zhengzhi nodded.

“You rascal, don’t bite off more than you can chew!” Chi Hou squinted as he exuded a domineering aura.

“Three months. Three months from now, I will have her tell the whole world that she will be my bed warmer!” Fang Zhengzhi replied casually.

“Are you for real?” Chi Hou’s eyes were on the verge of popping out of their sockets.

“Of course!”

“And if you can’t do it?”

“Then I will do as you say and stay in the courts for three to five years. I will get back my rank three post.” Fang Zhengzhi waved him off.

“Okay, I will give you three months!”

“And if I manage to do it?”

“Hahaha… then I will follow you! I will listen to you and follow your orders!” Chi Hou chuckled scornfully.

“Follow my orders? What if I asked you to rebel?”

“Rubbish! How dare you speak of such things?!”

“Haha… I was just kidding.”

“You rascal, if you can really make Chi Guyan your bed warmer, I will follow any of your orders as long as they don’t involve rebellion!” Chi Hou replied.

“It’s a deal!”

“Okay, I will give you three months. I will protect you in the meantime. If you try to play me, I will not show you any mercy.”

“Thank you, my lord.” Fang Zhengzhi nodded.

“Mm, since everything is out in the open, when do you plan to return to the capital?”

“Soon. I am just waiting for a friend.”

“A friend?”

“Did you really think that I grilled such a huge beast for the two of us?” Fang Zhengzhi’s lips twitched as he looked at the roasted beast.

“Oh? I heard that the leader of the Shadow Sect is a female. However… I’ve never seen her in person. Maybe it’s a good thing for me to meet her today.” Chi Hou responded.

“Haha…” Fang Zhengzhi chuckled but didn’t say anything else.

At that moment, two figures appeared in the distance. They traveled quickly, and they exchanged blows as they ran over.

The glow of the swords was clear for all to see…

A wave of iciness clashed with a pale blue glow. The duel sent plumes of dust skyward, almost like two ravenous wolves fighting it out.

This was Qingyi and Li Jingfeng.

Chi Hou frowned. He knew that Li Jingfeng would not fight with Qingyi unless he had a good reason to. Li Jingfeng was a soldier.

A soldier follows orders.

Even a verbal exchange could not cause Li Jingfeng to go against direct orders and enter the village.

There was only one possibility.

There was something urgent that even Li Jingfeng didn’t dare to handle himself.

“What’s happening?” Chi Hou waved his arm and a thin aura flew in between Li Jingfeng and Qingyi.

The fighting stopped.

“My lord, there is a squad of soldiers two miles away and heading towards the village. Intel puts their numbers at about 3000. They are traveling quickly and in formation. They must be a trained force!”

“An army? A trained one? Do we know who they are?” Chi Hou was stunned.

This was the Northern Region! The only trained army here was his!

“No, they are all wearing veils and their armor is being covered by black cloaks! Furthermore, they are quite aggressive and feel powerful! However, we can’t tell who they are by their appearance!”

“Aggressive and powerful? Are they the barbarians?”

“Probably not. Their aura is similar, but the barbarians cannot possibly be this well trained. Intel tells us that this squad is even faster than the Red Pinion Squad. They are also able to maintain formation throughout. My guess is that they are not weaker than the Red Pinion Squad!” Li Jingfeng shook his head.

“Not weaker than the Red Pinion Squad?” Chi Hou’s expression changed.

He trusted Li Jingfeng’s judgment. However, there were few squads that were on par with the Red Pinion Squad. The Mountain Breaking Army was one of them, as well as a couple of other elite squads in the constabularies.

Or maybe some of the larger noble families.

But…

None of them should have been able to come up to the Northern Regions!

Who is it? The Stabilization Constabulary?

Impossible.

Chi Hou rejected that idea almost immediately. Even though the Stabilization Constabulary had interacted with Fang Zhengzhi during the war…

They wouldn’t come up here to find him.

Xing Yuanguo was a principled man. If he planned to enter the Northern Regions, he would have sent a letter to Chi Hou.

Even if time was of the essence…

He would not bother to disguise himself and hide his identity. The Stabilization Constabulary didn’t need to mask themselves!

This was definitely not the Stabilization Constabulary!

The fact that they were veiled meant that they didn’t want to be recognized.

Were they trying to hide their movements?

Definitely not!

The movements of 3000 soldiers traveling in formation were impossible to hide! The only reason must be that they wanted to conceal their identity!

The Crown Prince?!

How did they get here so quickly?

Chi Hou turned to Fang Zhengzhi when he thought about this.

Then, he realized that Fang Zhengzhi’s expression didn’t change when he heard what Li Jingfeng said. In fact, there were traces of surprise on his face.

Could it be…

Chi Hou squinted, “I never thought that the Shadow Sect had grown to become such a formidable force in the past year! I have underestimated Wu Yuer!”
