Chapter 584: Poetic Title

~12 min read 2,303 words

Wu Pifu was eating hot pot and listening to music when he was surrounded by a group of underworld figures... no, wait, he was surrounded by a group of black-road figures.

Since obtaining the Dragon-Elephant Prison-Suppressing Scripture and one of the twelve Predestined Secret Treasuries of the Buddhist Secret Treasury, Wu Pifu had completely let go of his worries about the next battle. That kind of bitter and deep-seated hatred state really didn't look like him. Anyway, if he died, he died; if he didn't die, he would live for ten thousand years. He lived, fought, and died. He completely let go of his heart's knot and began to enjoy himself in this world with Huang Rong.

Although he had experienced quite a few Dream Worlds, this was truly the first time he had played so freely without thinking about anything.

Moreover, Huang Rong was ice-snow intelligent and had a secret love for Wu Pifu. The two were not short of money. They flew all the way from the Western Regions back to the Central Plains, and they had a lot of fun with all kinds of pranks.

About ten days after returning from the Western Regions, Wu Pifu and Huang Rong finally arrived in the Jiangnan area of the Central Plains.

Compared to the North, outside the pass, and the Western Regions, the Jiangnan of the Central Plains was Huang Rong's home field.

Although she was from Taohuadao, she hadn't always stayed on Taohuadao. She often came to the Central Plains with Huang Yaoshi when she was a child. She was most familiar with the famous scenic spots in Jiangnan. After returning to Jiangnan, Huang Rong's smiles became more frequent.

After returning to Jiangnan and playing for about ten days, today, the two enjoyed the scenery. Anyway, Wu Pifu could fly, so they didn't have to suffer the hardships of travel. At noon, they found a famous restaurant nearby, booked the most high-end guest room on the top floor, ordered the restaurant's signature dishes, and ordered a few pots of the most expensive top-grade Huadiao fine wine.

Huang Rong smiled happily and kept putting food into Wu Pifu's bowl, while constantly introducing the historical allusions, flavors, and literary interests of these dishes to Wu Pifu, and kept pouring fine wine for Wu Pifu.

At this time, the sun was bright, and it was a crisp autumn day. A breeze blew through the wooden window behind them, neither hot nor cold. Blowing on people, it only felt incomparably comfortable. At the same time, there were bird calls and human voices, but it wasn't noisy, just giving people a sense of the market atmosphere of life.

Wu Pifu and Huang Rong were both physically and mentally comfortable. Sitting in this high building looking at the scenery, eating delicacies, and tasting fine wine, they both wished this beautiful time would slow down a bit.

Suddenly at this moment, there was a clamor of human voices on the lower floor of the restaurant, a burst of clattering bowls and chopsticks, followed by the shouts of diners, the running of crowds, and the clashing of swords, sticks, and clubs. Huang Rong immediately looked at Wu Pifu with worry.

Wu Pifu shook his head slightly at Huang Rong, "I won't kill anyone, don't worry."

Huang Rong smiled and coquettishly said, "Brother Pifu, don't talk about yourself like a murderer. Those you killed were not humans; they were all non-humans who deserved to be killed."

Wu Pifu said seriously, "That's exactly it. Unfortunately, many people don't understand that humans and non-humans are two completely different things. They must be carefully distinguished."

Huang Rong smiled and nodded repeatedly, but she sighed in her heart.

The two ignored the chaos on the floor below and just continued to eat and drink, talking about scenery and play.

It was just that the sound from the lower floor was getting louder and louder, and it started to climb to the upper floor.

"Yang Kang! You beast, recognizing a thief as your father! I thought you at least had a little conscience. I didn't expect you to be so mad! Today, in this Zuixian Restaurant, I must take your beastly life to sacrifice to Brother Yang!"

"Brother Yang, did you really lead the pursuers here!? Why? Why recognize a thief as your father? And where is Miss Mu!?"

"Rebellious disciple! Rebellious disciple! Hero Ke, everyone, this agreement is my, Qiu Chuji's, loss! I am the blind one, unable to distinguish good from evil, unable to distinguish loyalty from treachery! Today, I must kill this rebellious disciple! Later, I will definitely admit in front of the martial arts colleagues that this bet was my, Qiu Chuji's, loss!!"

"You say the Father King is the enemy who killed my father? But for these eighteen years, he has treated me like his own flesh and blood, with fine clothes, good food, power, and status. When has he ever treated me unfairly? I, Wanyan Kang, am the Little Prince of the Great Jin Kingdom. How could I have anything to do with you martial arts grass-roots! Great Masters, go ahead!"

"We won't let this group of thieves run away. However, this battle still needs to rely heavily on Young Master Ouyang Ke. But I don't know if Senior Ouyang Feng has come?"

"My uncle naturally won't let go of the news of the *Nine Yin Manual*. Guo Jing, and your blind master, if you tell the whereabouts of the human skin of the *Nine Yin Manual* now, I will take charge of abolishing your martial arts and letting you go, how about that?"

This series of words reached Wu Pifu and Huang Rong from the lower floor. Huang Rong's little ears moved a few times. She had no interest in the others, but she took the words "*Nine Yin Manual*" to heart. Firstly, she hoped to obtain another supreme martial art for her lover, and secondly, this *Nine Yin Manual* also had something to do with her mother's death and her father's depression for more than ten years.

Wu Pifu was speechless. He asked Huang Rong, "Is this restaurant Zuixian Restaurant?"

Huang Rong said in confusion, "Yes, it's a very famous restaurant here in Jiaxing."

Wu Pifu sighed.

He had avoided going to the Jin Kingdom, but he still encountered the main characters of *The Legend of the Condor Heroes*, especially Guo Jing... Because he snatched Huang Rong, and with Huang Rong until now, naturally, he couldn't follow the original plot. However, he felt as if he owed Guo Jing something...

Just at this moment, a handsome and evil young man struck a pair of arms with a "supporting heaven" move, hitting a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, causing him to crash through the floor and jump up. At the same time, a group of martial arts figures also followed and fought up. The high-end guest floor was beaten into a mess. Seeing that the young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes was about to have his throat torn by the handsome and evil young man, Wu Pifu finally sighed and flicked his finger.

The evil young man's arm shook, and his whole person was flicked two meters away. His face was immediately horrified. It wasn't just him; the people fighting in the field were also shocked and retreated, dividing into two camps. One side included the young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, totaling five people. They were a Taoist priest wearing a dark green Taoist robe with a long sword and a wine gourd on his back; a blind man, thin but with a straight back, holding an iron staff; a scholar-dressed man with a refined face, thin eyes, and long eyebrows, holding a fan; and a woman with a beautiful face, wind and frost on her face, holding a long sword.

The other side was the handsome and evil young man, also holding a fan; a young man in brocade clothes, also handsome and tall; a short and fat man with a fierce face, his ten fingers thick and rough; another tall man holding water-parting daggers—it was Sha Tongtian, whom Wu Pifu had seen; and a white-haired old man with a ruddy face like a baby, hanging a red-skinned gourd at his waist.

At a glance, Wu Pifu roughly knew who the two camps were. It was nothing more than Guo Jing's side, with Qiu Chuji, Ke Zhen'e, Zhu Cong, and Han Xiaoying. The other side was estimated to be the Jin Kingdom's royal palace force, that is, Wanyan Honglie, the foster father of Yang Kang, who triggered the beginning of the story of *The Legend of the Condor Heroes*. Except for Ouyang Ke, the others should be Peng Lianhu, Sha Tongtian, and Liang Ziweng, all of whom were characters who appeared in the original book.

Wu Pifu showed a hand, and both sides were shocked and stopped fighting. Han Xiaoying immediately ran to Guo Jing, who had fallen, and helped him up to look at him carefully. The others all looked at Wu Pifu and Huang Rong. Seeing the two sitting there without surprise or movement, they immediately knew that these two were either of extraordinary status or extraordinary martial arts. Looking at Wu Pifu's sturdy figure again, they all knew that the person who made the move just now must be Wu Pifu.

Everyone felt awe in their hearts. Only Sha Tongtian knelt down with a *thud*. Beside him, Ouyang Ke just opened his mouth: "Truly a fairy... Ah? Mr. Sha, what are you doing?"

Everyone looked at Sha Tongtian in confusion, each not understanding. But Sha Tongtian was full of sweat, just kneeling on the ground and kowtowing constantly: "Immortal is in front of me, Immortal is in front of me. I, Old Sha, have always kept the Immortal's instructions in mind and never dare to move against any ordinary people again. Heaven and earth can testify, heaven and earth can testify!"

Wu Pifu sensed the emotions slightly and nodded, "You did what you said, which is not bad. Then you can go."

Sha Tongtian was like receiving an amnesty, not daring to delay, and even more not daring to say a word to the people around him. He lowered his head and turned to leave, actually ignoring everything.

Seeing this, everyone around secretly thought it was bad. Ouyang Ke immediately said respectfully, "I am Ouyang Ke, the Young Master of the White Camel Mountain Villa. My uncle is Ouyang Feng, the Western Poison, one of the Five Greats of the world. May I ask who the Senior is?"

Wu Pifu still sensed the emotions slightly, and his face immediately became serious. Beside him, Huang Rong immediately pulled Wu Pifu's sleeve, "Brother Pifu, don't get angry, don't get angry."

Wu Pifu shook his head slightly, "I have to be angry. If it were just thinking about something in the heart without action, that would be fine. After all, actions are more important than thoughts. But he really did something, and more than once..."

While speaking, Wu Pifu raised his hand slightly. Ouyang Ke was terrified. Others didn't know, but as soon as Wu Pifu raised his hand, he immediately felt a terrifying aura that was unimaginable enveloping him. He couldn't even say a word. Watching Wu Pifu's palm about to fall, although it was at least five meters away, he still knew he was going to die.

Between life and death, he roared with all his internal energy: "Uncle, save me! Uncle, save me!!"

The voice was sharp like a whistle, and a huge toad sound suddenly sounded from far away. Qiu Chuji's face changed drastically, "Not good, the Western Poison is coming, we must..."

In the next second, Ouyang Ke exploded, turning into a pool of meat. Everyone around was stunned, not to the point of vomiting, but their faces turned blue and white.

"Fine, since the killing has started..." Wu Pifu stood up from his chair.

Huang Rong was so scared that her face turned pale. She hung on Wu Pifu's arm and shouted loudly, "Brother Pifu, Brother Pifu, this is my home, this is my home!!"

Wu Pifu looked at Huang Rong speechlessly, "No, I'm not a murderer. Don't worry, I have a sense of proportion."

While speaking, he waved one hand toward a wall of the Zuixian Restaurant. Suddenly, the entire wall shattered. Everyone saw him lift and pull with one hand. In the blink of an eye, a man with a high nose and deep eyes, sunken eye sockets, pale skin like snow, slightly curly hair, and eyes as sharp as a falcon was captured out of thin air from thousands of meters away, standing motionless in mid-air.

Then Wu Pifu was about to cup his hands, "Ouyang Feng, the Western Poison, you are also a Grandmaster of this world. You should have some face. Although I could slap you to death, I also..."

Huang Rong heard Ouyang Feng, Western Poison, and these things. She immediately turned her eyes and shouted loudly, "Brother Pifu, poetic title, poetic title!! What about the poetic title I worked so hard to think of for you!?"

Wu Pifu's face stiffened, and he was immediately full of embarrassment. But seeing Huang Rong's full expectation, and thinking of the effect of the "Great Might Heavenly Dragon" title, this kind of embarrassment might accompany him for a long, long time. So he could only sigh and cup his hands.

"The mayfly shakes the tree, going against the sky. The eternal night sinks into frost, proving the lonely star. The tiger roars in a thousand mountains, burning the desperate situation. A hero's anger cuts through the long darkness."

"I am Wu Pifu, greetings!"
