Chapter 304: Young Master, what great talent!

~7 min read 1,359 words

"Ah?"

The Seventh Princess was instantly stunned, unable to react.

The fourth residence at the end of Vermilion Bird Street in the East City?

Wasn't that the address of that pair of orphans and widows from just now?

Come to think of it, that woman was indeed very delicate and pretty. Leaving her address before leaving must mean she had a good impression of Xu Que and also wanted to show gratitude.

But didn't this guy just say he wouldn't go?

Didn't he say he wasn't that kind of person?

Why is he asking about this now?

I invited him for tea and a gathering, yet I can't even compare to an ordinary woman? Are all men really such hypocritical, well-dressed beasts?

The more the Seventh Princess thought about it, the angrier she became, her expression gradually turning cold.

Having lived deep in the palace for many years, the Seventh Princess detested hypocritical, lustful, and flirtatious people the most. She had always disdained the young masters of noble families she came into contact with.

However, the Seventh Princess didn't expect that the Xu Que before her was actually this kind of person; it made her feel so disappointed.

Xu Que, however, said with a straight face: "Actually, I just remembered that I forgot to give those cumin powders, chili powders, and such to that great mother. Although they have tens of thousands of taels of silver to live on now, life still needs to be colorful, right? Occasionally, when they have a craving, the mother and son can still roast chicken wings to eat. Don't you agree?"

"Ah?"

The Seventh Princess was stunned again, once more unable to react, completely unable to keep up with the various changes in Xu Que's train of thought.

So he wasn't going to take advantage of someone's precarious position, but wanted to help them to the end by delivering ingredients for roasting chicken wings!

It was I who misunderstood him!

Thinking of this, the Seventh Princess couldn't help but feel deeply self-reproachful in her heart.

"What are you 'ah-ing' about? Why is your complexion so poor? Are you sick? How about I examine your body? It's not that I'm bragging to you, but actually, what I'm best at isn't roasting chicken wings or stinky tofu, but... gynecology! You understand? The one known as the Divine Hand of Gynecology is none other than yours truly..." Xu Que asked with concern.

The Seventh Princess hurriedly shook her head, saying with a hint of apology: "Young Master Xu, I... I am not sick. Just now, I... I misunderstood you. I am truly sorry! You are so open and aboveboard, so warm-hearted; I truly used the heart of a villain to measure the belly of a gentleman!"

"No worries, no worries. I just said it, I've traveled the world these years, upholding justice, and I've long been accustomed to all kinds of misunderstandings! Geniuses, after all! They will only walk further and further under the flowery misunderstandings of others, and then step into the peak of the world, enjoying the loneliness of being at the top! Loneliness, ah!"

Xu Que waved his hand, his expression deep. Suddenly, he looked up at the night sky at a forty-five-degree angle, his gaze firm and full of courage, saying sonorously:

"However, all of this will never hinder my pace of continuing to save the world, but will only make me stronger and stronger. Because... 'Still strong despite a thousand blows, letting the winds blow from east, west, north, or south!'"

"Still strong despite a thousand blows, letting the winds blow from east, west, north, or south!"

As soon as the two lines of poetry came out, the Seventh Princess instantly opened her small mouth in surprise, very shocked.

These two lines of poetry were simply superb!

How much determination and spirit must one have to compose such poetry!

Unexpectedly, beneath his seemingly unreliable appearance, he actually hid such a great side!

In order to save the common people, he is not afraid of these rumors, not afraid of misunderstandings from outsiders; it is truly admirable!

"Young Master Xu... truly has great talent. For the world to have someone like you is definitely the blessing of the common people!"

Looking at Xu Que, the Seventh Princess said sincerely.

Vaguely, it seemed as if a scene appeared before her eyes: in the howling wind, Xu Que still stood tall and upright, unwavering, helping the common people do things!

Instantly, the Seventh Princess felt deeply moved, and her good impression of Xu Que increased greatly.

After all, in this cultivation world where everyone is a cultivator and everyone follows the principle of "let fellow Daoists die, not me," someone who can pay so much for the common people is absolutely unique.

"Ding! Congratulations to host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting cool, gaining 200 Acting Cool Points!"

"Ding! Congratulations to host 'Xu Que' for acting a shameless cool, gaining 500 Acting Cool Points!"

Listening to the system notification sounds echoing in his mind, Xu Que looked humble, waved his hand lightly, turned around, put his hands behind his back again, and continued to look up at the sky.

The next moment, he recited: "The road ahead is long and far, I will search high and low!"

The Seventh Princess's body shook. "Good poem, Young Master truly has high talent!"

"Ding! Congratulations to host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting cool, gaining 200 Acting Cool Points!"

Xu Que moved his body slightly, facing the other side of the night sky, and recited deeply: "A time will come to ride the wind and cleave the waves, I will set my cloud-white sails and cross the vast sea!"

"Young Master Xu is truly stunningly talented. With such lofty ambitions, this young woman truly admires you!"

"The sharpness of a sword comes from sharpening, the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold!"

"Young Master... amazing!"

"An old steed in the stable still aspires to gallop a thousand miles; a hero in his twilight years still has lofty ambitions!"

"Young Master... truly amazing!"

"A youth does not know the preciousness of essence, in old age, one sheds tears in vain at the sight of a 'B'!"

"Young Master is truly... ah?"

The Seventh Princess was full of confusion.

At this moment, she was actually a bit frightened and stunned. Xu Que kept bringing out these famous poems, which she had never heard before.

For her, this was simply a huge shock.

So much so that she now didn't know what to use to praise Xu Que; she was becoming somewhat numb from praising him.

As a result, Xu Que suddenly popped out an inexplicable poem, making her stunned again.

The Xu Que before her seemed like a huge mystery, making the Seventh Princess feel deeply attracted and also have an indescribable curiosity.

She truly wanted to know what this young man, who didn't look very old, had experienced to be able to grow to such an awe-inspiring and admirable level.

"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"

Just as the Seventh Princess was lost in thought, several sounds of breaking through the air suddenly came from the night sky.

Everyone turned their heads to look, and it was actually the Eighth Elder of the Fragrant Sky Valley from before who had returned.

And this time, he was not alone; he had brought seven or eight young male and female disciples with him, travel-worn, landing on the ground.

Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, the Eighth Elder was anxious, leading his disciples through the crowd, shouting repeatedly: "Young Hero, this old man has returned. I ask that you show this old man some respect and give each of my disciples a bowl..."

Before he could finish speaking, the Eighth Elder had already seen clearly that the person standing in front of the oil pot was no longer Xu Que, but a black and white dog, fiddling with the stinky tofu in the pot!

And beside it were several princes, each already spraying a bowl of stinky tofu, picking it up and putting it into their mouths.
