Look at the ragged state of your clothes; how embarrassing would it be for me if we go out?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Nian had thought of retorting, but then he thought better of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His storage ring was filled with clothes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn't taken them out simply to avoid suspicion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, he didn't expect to be so disdained by Hua Gesang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, Hua Gesang picked out a rather nice piece of clothing for Xu Nian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Xu Nian changed into it, he actually stunned Hua Gesang for a few seconds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She then realized how handsome the young man before her was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially the aura emanating from him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if he was naturally elegant and carefree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hua Gesang even began to doubt if she had recognized the wrong person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Didn't expect you to be such a pretty boy. You looked so sloppy before, with your tattered clothes and unkempt appearance. Now that you've changed into a new set of clothes and combed your hair, you actually look presentable. Taking you out now, this missy can appear with some dignity.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walking out of the clothing store, Hua Gesang circled around Xu Nian, then smiled and patted his shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Nian just smiled wryly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look like a human, sort of like a dog,\" indeed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hua Gesang really knew how to choose her words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he wasn't angry; after all, he had gotten to know Hua Gesang's temper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had a tough exterior but a soft heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We've been around for a day now, time to head back?\" Xu Nian suddenly frowned and said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, we've pretty much been everywhere, it's time to go back, let's go!\" Hua Gesang nodded and then turned to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, before Hua Gesang had taken more than a few steps, she was stopped by someone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Four burly men dressed in black battle attire were staring coldly at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hua Gesang's brow furrowed, clearly sensing ill intentions from the newcomers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Nian's expression also tightened slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cultivation of these four burly men was not low, they were all of Battle General Level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And from the looks in their eyes, it was clear they were battle-hardened mercenaries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obviously, their target was Hua Gesang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, with Xu Nian's strength, no one would be foolish enough to send people of Battle General Level against him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Xu Nian was somewhat puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hua Gesang had just arrived in Rom City, how had she managed to provoke these men?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who are you? What do you want?\" Hua Gesang asked warily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, she retreated to Xu Nian's side and whispered, \"Run, go find my father.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Xu Nian stood still as if frozen, foolishly remaining in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This infuriated Hua Gesang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had the boy been scared witless?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Nian was certainly not scared witless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He simply did not want to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, these people had come for Hua Gesang, if he left, she would likely be in danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We are from the Iron Blood Mercenary Group. Our leader wishes for the lady to accompany us to Tianhua Restaurant for a talk.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of the burly men spoke and without waiting for Hua Gesang's response, they blocked the way for both Hua Gesang and Xu Nian, making a gesture to invite them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that the situation was not good, Hua Gesang did not resist and reluctantly followed them in the direction of Tianhua Restaurant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Nian naturally followed closely behind Hua Gesang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why didn't you run when I told you to? Now who will save us?\" Hua Gesang glared at Xu Nian fiercely and whispered angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Nian just gave a naïve smile and did not reply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Xu Nian's expression, Hua Gesang couldn't help but seethe with anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there was no help for it, the four men were watching her closely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if she wanted to escape, it would be impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, Xu Nian and Hua Gesang were brought to a very luxurious restaurant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the escort of the four men, Xu Nian and Hua Gesang finally met the leader of the Iron Blood Mercenary Group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was a muscular man with a beard and a slanting scar across his nose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first glance, he gave off a very ferocious impression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What surprised Xu Nian even more was that the leader was a Nine-star Body King level powerhouse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Nine-star Body King, in this remote region of Beimo, was definitely a dominant force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Iron Blood Group Leader looked at Hua Gesang, a faint smile on his lips, his eyes carrying a hint of lascivious amusement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your chest is a bit small, but your face and legs are nice. Little beauty, would you like to be my woman?\" the Iron Blood Group Leader said bluntly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pah!\" Hua Gesang immediately displayed a look of contempt, anger welling up in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hadn't expected this middle-aged man to say such a thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Hua Gesang's disdain, the corners of the Iron Blood Group Leader's mouth curled into a cold smirk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He started to walk toward Hua Gesang step by step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hua Gesang quickly drew her sword and attacked the leader.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as soon as her sword was swung, the leader caught it between two fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hua Gesang tried to pull her sword back, but found it was as immovable as if pressed down by a mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With your level of strength, you think you can kill me? It's just like throwing an egg against a rock. I advise you to submit quietly, or else you only have a death sentence waiting for you. Someone has offered ten million Gold Coins for your life,\" the Iron Blood Group Leader said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, the Iron Blood Group Leader exerted force in his fingers, and Hua Gesang's curved sword snapped in two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Hua Gesang was sent reeling back by the force of the blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Nian quickly supported Hua Gesang.\u003C\u002Fp>",1355,"2026-05-30T07:13:59.209Z","2026-06-01T04:30:36.922Z",1,"novelbin.me","af03a1fd3679fbe93b93d0e01fbb25eda4f89cd110ede6883f8bec4ce690034f","divine-king-of-honour-chapter-523","divine-king-of-honour-chapter-521",1916,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdivine-king-of-honour-cover.jpg"]
