“Healing? Was he hurt?” Zhang Zixi was shocked upon hearing what Lu Zimingsaid. Isn't Ye Fan the strongest person on earth? Could it be that there's someone capable of hurting him?
“Didn't your grandpa tell you?” Lu Ziming was stunned. Back then, what happened to Ye Fan shocked the whole martial arts world. I thought everyone knew about it? But then again, perhaps it was because of what Zhang Jiuling did.
“It seems like your grandpa was determined not to let his future generations get involved in the martial arts world.” Lu Ziming smiled and shook his head.
Since Zhang Jiuling decided against telling Zhang Zixi about it, Lu Ziming didn't reveal much to Zhang Zixi as well.
Instead, he merely said, “The thing is, Mr. Chu is like a legend. Zixi, if you wish to excel in the martial arts world, you should learn from him. I've seen plenty over the years, but I've never met someone as talented as Mr. Chu. Besides, I bet there won't be someone like him again.” “Okay.” Zhang Zixi nodded profusely. With a determined look in her eyes, she said, “I want to be someone exactly like Mr. Chu. However, Mr. Lu, there's something I can't figure out. Why did someone as incredible as Mr. Chu make an ordinary woman his wife? Before this, I've sounded Mr. Chu's wife out. She's a weak and ordinary woman. Hence, I can't wrap my mind around why did a man with such power fall for an ordinary weakling.”
Ever since she met Qiu Mucheng, Zhang Zixi had been pondering over it.
Initially, Zhang Zixi always thought only the strong were worthy of the strong. How is a weakling like her worthy of someone as strong as Mr. Chu?
Upon hearing that, Lu Ziming was taken aback. “What? What did you do to her? Are you insane?”
“I've only tested her out. It's not like I've harmed her or anything,” Zhang Zixi explained.
“Still, you shouldn't have done that!” Lu Ziming looked very worried.
“You're such a silly girl! No wonder your grandpa always said you're impetuous! Why did you mess with his woman when you know how capable Mr. Chu is? Luckily for you, Mr. Chu is in solitary training.
Otherwise, if Qiu Mucheng complains to Mr. Chu about you, you'd be dead in Nanquan by now.” Lu Ziming was so frightened that his face was ghastly white when he warned Zhang Zixi.
However, Zhang Zixi was oblivious to the seriousness of the situation. She gave him a brusque response, “You're overreacting, aren't you, Mr. Lu? I was just testing her. Mr. Chu can't possibly decide to have a fallout with the Zhang family over such a trivial matter, can he? Besides, I think he still needs the Zhang family in Jiangbei.”
“What do you know?” Lu Clan retorted anxiously. “Do you know what caused the Lu Clan to tumble? It's all my unfilial son's doing! He offended Mr. Chu's wife, Qiu Mucheng. When Mr. Chu found out about it, he stormed into Jiangbei. Starting from Westlake, he went on a killing spree. My poor dad was killed by Mr. Chu on the first day he got the Supreme title. After that, he wiped out the whole Lu Clan. In despair, I brought my son with me and headed toward Mount Yan to hide in War God Castle. In the end, that maniac slaughtered his way toward Mount Yan! Did you know he wanted to fight against Sword Saint just because he wanted to kill my son? If he dared to mess with War God Castle, what makes you think he'd be afraid of your puny Zhang family? In your mind, you'd think that he needs the Zhang family to secure Jiangbei. As far as he's concerned, Jiangbei is just another worthless place. In fact, his vision had exceeded China. He's more interested in the other countries in the world.”
While Lu Ziming was telling Zhang Zixi about the past, she was utterly frightened!
She turned pale and was so frightened that she couldn't say anything in response.
Obviously, she didn't expect Ye Fan to be willing to go up against the whole of China for such a weak woman. One could only imagine how much the other women envied her.
“Indeed, he's a legend.” Zhang Zixi shook her head and sighed. While she was jealous of Qiu Mucheng, she couldn't hide her disappointment. I guess this is the most romantic thing one could do for the other in the martial arts world. He was willing to go against the whole world just to avenge a woman he loves. If only I'd met him earlier. If I did, I'd do anything to win over him because he's absolutely my type. Not only is he powerful, but he's also a romantic.
After a short moment of silence, Zhang Zixi turned around and headed down the stairs.
