Chapter 505: Challenging Great Qian alone, I
"The Wang Zhiwang, could it be the world-renowned Wei Zhuoyi, known as 'Piercing Intestines' who can counter heaven and earth?"
Suddenly, someone exclaimed, their eyes locked on the old man in the center of the Jin Luandian, filled with shock.
Then, a clamor erupted.
"Wei Laoyezi's skill in couplets is supernatural; he is actually an old friend of Zhou Laoyezi!"
"In the way of couplets, Wei Laoyezi is known as invincible across the seven kingdoms; countless great scholars who are well-versed in couplets are not even a match for him, and many have vomited blood!"
"Lord Gao is in danger now!"
Along with Wei Laoyezi's voice, the entire Jin Luandian instantly fell into a clamor.
Wei Laoyezi looked at Gao Yang, his eyes filled with endless arrogance.
Although Gao Yang was strong and had even won the literary battle against the renowned Zhou Laoyezi, and had placed the label of plagiarist on him, he had absolute confidence in the way of couplets!
This was absolute confidence born from his own powerful strength!
Wu Zhao's expression changed, showing solemnity.
But she didn't know much about literature, so she didn't know the specific deeds of Wei Laoyezi, but based on the shock on the faces of some Great Qian officials, she knew this person was definitely very troublesome.
"Wan'er, do you know this person?"
Wu Zhao asked in a low voice, her phoenix eyes landing on Wei Laoyezi.
Shangguan Wan'er looked solemn and said, "Your Majesty, you may not know, but this Wei Laoyezi is not famous for poetry and songs, but in the way of couplets, he is known as the number one person in the seven kingdoms!"
"He started learning couplets at five; at eight, he countered his teacher to the point of vomiting blood; at thirteen, he began traveling through Great Chu, seeking instruction everywhere; at sixteen, he was hailed as the number one person in couplets in Great Chu!"
"At twenty-three, he traveled through the seven kingdoms and was invincible in couplets!"
"His couplets are quite vicious and hidden with sarcasm; some great scholars have been countered to the point of vomiting blood on the spot by Wei Laoyezi, hence the nickname 'Wang Zhiwang, Piercing Intestines'!"
"Lord Gao must not agree to this person, otherwise it will be dangerous."
Hearing this, Wu Zhao's phoenix eyes staring at Wei Laoyezi suddenly changed, filled with emotion; she clearly hadn't expected Wei Laoyezi to be so terrifying!
She couldn't help but feel worried.
Gao Yang looked at Wei Laoyezi and raised an eyebrow.
Zhou Laoyezi had just fallen, and now came a Wei Laoyezi known as the Wang Zhiwang?
The preparations of Great Chu were not insignificant.
Clearly, these hidden methods were all beginning to be revealed to attack him!
But when it came to couplets, if he were to provide the first line, he seemed to be invincible too!
Wei Laoyezi listened to the discussions, his face arrogant; he stroked his beard and said to Gao Yang, "This old man once made a poisonous vow with Zhou Laoyezi: not to be born on the same year, month, and day, but to die on the same year, month, and day!"
"Lord Gao angered my close friend to death; how can I sit idly by? Lord Gao's name is widespread, and his literary talent is amazing; by not responding for so long, are you afraid of me?"
"If you are afraid, then kneel and kowtow to me to perform the apprenticeship ceremony, and this matter will be settled!"
Wei Laoyezi spoke, his eyes fixed on Gao Yang.
Clearly, he wanted to return this humiliation to Gao Yang!
Lu Wen and others looked cold, their eyes flickering.
Scholars value reputation more than life; Gao Yang had just angered Zhou Laoyezi to death, and now Wei Laoyezi was attacking Gao Yang under the guise of avenging his old friend; if Gao Yang refused, he would be ridiculed by the seven kingdoms!
But if he agreed, Wei Laoyezi was not someone to be trifled with!
But before Gao Yang could speak, Wu Zhao stepped forward, "You all came to negotiate, and I, Great Qian, treated you with courtesy, but first Zhou Laoyezi slandered Lord Gao for plagiarism, and now Wei Laoyezi is attacking Lord Gao!"
"Do you think Great Qian has no one?"
Wu Zhao's majestic voice suddenly rang out, interrupting everything.
Gao Yang glanced at Wu Zhao's beautiful legs and her exquisite, breathtaking face, feeling moved in his heart.
Although he wasn't afraid of this so-called Wei Laoyezi and even had a countermeasure in mind, Wu Zhao's protective behavior was still somewhat touching.
Except for this body, there was really no way to repay her!
Wu Zhao's voice rang out, and the officials were solemn.
