Chapter 19: Huangmu: Come, Slash Me Head‑On!

"That… uh…"

"It's not because I heard, Huangmu, that you were injured in your fight with that wicked woman Mao Zhihua!"

"So I'm especially worried about your health, which is why I came over specifically to check on you…"

Zaitou Bulaobusi, after hearing Huangmu's words, tilted her body slightly, trying not to face Huangmu directly!

It seems that, at the moment, Zaitou Bulaobusi dares not look straight into Huangmu's eyes; she appears very afraid of revealing something she shouldn't to Huangmu…

You can see Zaitou Bulaobusi, who had tilted her body, twirling a strand of violet hair that had fallen to her chest at some unknown time, while fidgeting and speaking to Huangmu.

"Eh?! This guy is completely different from just now…"

"Hey, hey, hey! You weren't this gentle with us just now!"

"She's so easy to read! She basically writes all her thoughts on her face."

"Honestly, she's just one step away from sticking the word 'like' on her forehead!"

The Guard Court 11th Squad members, battered and bruised by Zaitou Bulaobusi, looked at the Zaitou before them—who seemed a completely different person from earlier—and muttered complaints in their hearts.

"Um, uh…"

"Since I see you're still alive, I'll leave first."

Zaitou Bulaobusi surveyed Huangmu from head to toe, and after confirming he was uninjured, let out a sigh of relief while muttering a curse at some black‑skinned bastard who had fed her false intel, then prepared to retreat.

"So was our fight just a waste then?"

The Guard Court 11th Squad members, lying on the ground with their faces upward, couldn't help but twitch their eyelids after hearing Zaitou Bulaobusi; it turned out she really only came to see Huangmu!

They had thought Zaitou Bulaobusi came to mock Captain Mao Zhihua after hearing of her defeat, but now it seemed that wasn't the case…

"Since you're here, let's leave later!"

"Coincidentally, I was just about to look for you…"

Huangmu, of course, wouldn't let Zaitou Bulaobusi walk away; he swept his arm, stopped the departing 'Xiao Baishu', and said with a smile.

"Hm? Y‑you also plan to look for me?"

Upon hearing Huangmu's words, Zaitou Bulaobusi's light‑purple twin tails twitched up and down.

Just as the 11th Squad members said, Zaitou Bulaobusi's mood was impossible to hide!

"Yes, right now there's something only you can help me with."

Huangmu spoke earnestly to Zaitou Bulaobusi.

"Only I can help you…"

Zaitou Bulaobusi's pupils flickered slightly at the words.

"Ahem…" Zaitou Bulaobusi cleared her throat lightly, then said to Huangmu, "Since you ask so sincerely, I could consider helping you."

"Let's go~"

Huangmu had no intention of idle chatter with Zaitou Bulaobusi; as old friends, every 'proud or coquettish' remark of hers automatically translated into Mandarin in Huangmu's mind.

So Huangmu simply lifted Zaitou Bulaobusi off the ground and headed straight for the 11th Squad's swordsmanship hall.

"Hm, wait! Put me down, and I'll walk…"

At this, Zaitou Bulaobusi's handsome face suddenly looked a bit uneasy, and she shouted loudly at Huangmu. Of course, she only shouted with her mouth; while she kept saying 'no, no', her body was honest and offered no resistance to Huangmu.

As Huangmu and Zaitou Bulaobusi departed one after another, before the vast 11th Squad headquarters only the Guard Court 11th Squad members remained, their eyes reflecting endless shock.

A moment later, the Guard Court 11th Squad members finally couldn't hold back any longer.

They whispered into the empty air, their voices buzzing like a mosquito's wings, cursing Huangmu: "What gives him the right? After flirting with Captain Mao Zhihua, his relationship with Captain Zaitou is so intimate…"

"And look at it, Captain Zaitou clearly likes our Captain Huangmu! Captain Huangmu is literally a scumbag!"

"Damn! Our new captain— isn't he just a bit more handsome, stronger, with better background, higher EQ and IQ than us?!" another squad member complained, "Why is his woman‑charm so good? It's not enough that he tangled with our former captain Mao Zhihua; he also went after Captain Zaitou of the 6th Squad, and even the Captain Lu Qu of the 8th Squad, he won't leave them alone!"

"Shh! Stop talking, lest a word become a prophecy! Even though our Jingling Court is vast and the Guard Court 13th Squad is strong, there are only three female captains in total…"

"Especially now that Captain Mao Zhihua was defeated by Captain Huangmu! In the Guard Court 13th Squad, there are only two female captains left, and Captain Zaitou's relationship with our newly arrived Captain Huangmu is already unclear! How dare you curse Captain Lu Qu?!"

Compared to the ruthless, love‑unaware killer Mao Zhihua, Zaitou Bulaobusi is the epitome of sharp‑tongued, tsundere perfection…

Being tolerant and all‑encompassing, when compared to Zaitou Bulaobusi's 'Ba Qian Liu' of Mao Zhihua, she seems gentle, caring, and exceedingly virtuous…

At the same time, as a three‑zero, big‑bust cutie, the 8th Squad captain Lu Qu Ba Yun Zai is literally the white moonlight in the eyes of every male member of the Guard Court 13th Squad~

If even Captain Lu Qu were to be won over by Captain Huangmu, then not only the Guard Court 11th Squad members but also members of other squads would have to address Huangmu with the title: "The Underworld's Most Passionate! Jingling Court's Scumbag Patriarch!"

On the other side, at the Guard Court 11th Squad's swordsmanship hall.

Huangmu flung the Zaitou Bulaobusi he was shouldering across to the opposite side.

"Hm?!"

Zaitou Bulaobusi was still completely bewildered, having imagined many possibilities, but never expected Huangmu to bring her to the swordsmanship hall.

"Come, draw your waist‑mounted Soul‑Cutting Blade and slash me head‑on!"

Huangmu curled his finger toward Zaitou Bulaobusi, signaling her to swing at him.

"Haah?!"

Zaitou Bulaobusi's expression froze; Huangmu's words once again caught her off guard.

"I don't know what you're trying to do, but since you let me draw my blade, don't expect me to go easy."

Zaitou Bulaobusi shook her head vigorously, scattering the random thoughts in her mind.

Then Zaitou Bulaobusi gently drew the Soul‑Cutting Blade at her waist; the moment she grasped the sword, she seemed to become a different person, killing aura radiating! The original Guard Court 13th Squad's entire killing cohort is no empty boast…

Second shift!
