Chapter 1764: Protecting Her

"I understand, Mr. Chen." Zhao Ping nodded: "You scolded Chuan Naizi away just now because you wanted to protect her, right?"

"Where did you see that I wanted to protect her? Is it that obvious?" Chen Yu was slightly stunned; he did indeed have that thought. Although Chuan Naizi had a background and was capable, there were always things in this world that she could not touch. If she continued to persist like this, one day she would only harm herself.

"It's very obvious, it's just that she doesn't know it herself." Zhao Ping nodded: "This woman often looks for you, and in the past, she was the one who stepped forward to coordinate and resolve many things. It's clear that she is a person with a strong sense of justice. There aren't many such people in this society, but such people are the easiest to get hurt."

"Why do you say that?" Chen Yu asked.

"Because her sense of justice is overflowing, and she always does things that are beyond her capabilities. She may have a background and backing, but there are always things that the family behind her cannot cover for." Zhao Ping shook his head and said: "So she might get hurt."

"You scolded her just now to keep her away from these rights and wrongs. There are some things she didn't need to get involved in originally, just like the current Songyi Family matter. If she gets involved, she really won't get any good out of it."

"If only she could be as clear-headed as you." Chen Yu sighed slightly: "This woman, long hair, short vision. Although she is from Fusang, there is also the blood of Huaxia people in her lineage, and in this impetuous society today, she can be considered a clear stream."

"You are absolutely right. This kind of person is easily used as a tool by others. If she continues like this and doesn't change her temperament, sooner or later, she will pay the price for her actions."

"Yes, but she doesn't understand it herself." Zhao Ping said helplessly: "I have seen this kind of person; she is just stubborn. Once she decides on something, even eight cows cannot pull her back."

"You scolded her this time, making her feel disheartened, but the next time she encounters something, she will turn around and forget about being scolded."

"Thankless and unrewarding, how can there be such a person in this world?" Chen Yu said with some helplessness.

"Perhaps, this girl wants to get close to you." Zhao Ping gave a cheeky grin: "I'm serious, I could tell from her eyes that she is definitely interested in you."

"Keep your mouth tightly shut, say less, and no one will think you're a mute." Chen Yu glanced at Zhao Ping.

"Alright, alright, I'll shut up, I'll shut up immediately. Come, let's toast this glass of wine to Wu Bo." Zhao Ping changed the subject and picked up his wine glass.

The two raised their glasses and drank heartily. Just as they put down their glasses and picked up their chopsticks, before they had even started to swish a few pieces of meat, Chen Yu's brows locked together again.

"Mr. Chen, has something happened?" Zhao Ping was slightly stunned and couldn't help but become nervous.

Because the aura emanating from Chen Yu was different; it was an extremely vigilant and tense aura. In this world, there are not many things that can make Chen Yu so vigilant and even a little nervous.

From this, it can be seen that someone might have come from outside. Although Zhao Ping did not have Chen Yu's powerful perception, he could tell from Chen Yu's tense expression that a formidable person had likely arrived.

"Someone is here." Chen Yu poured a glass of wine and said slowly: "Friend, since you've come, show yourself. There's no need to hide, right?"

Suddenly, a gust of wind struck, followed immediately by a figure that arrived abruptly and appeared in the small courtyard.

The person who arrived was tall with gray hair. Although in the eyes of others he looked like a twilight old man, it was different in Chen Yu's eyes.

He walked three feet above the ground, with the wind blowing like a tiger; he was definitely a top-tier expert.

This was a God-Connecting Realm expert, and his strength was actually no weaker than a Spirit Rhinoceros Realm powerhouse among Huaxia Dharma Cultivators.

"Who are you?" Zhao Ping stood up with a start; he even suspected he had seen a ghost.

Because this old man arrived silently, without making a single sound, as if he had appeared out of thin air.

The old man was none other than Yagyu Heiichi. He did not answer Zhao Ping's question but just looked Chen Yu up and down with a strange gaze.

"Your Excellency, do not look at me with such eyes; just state your purpose." Chen Yu said indifferently: "If you are a friend, then sit down and have a drink. If you are an enemy, we will talk after I finish this glass of wine."

"This old man is Yagyu Heiichi." The old man smiled slightly: "You are Chen Yu? Hehe, a Spirit Rhinoceros Realm powerhouse, no wonder you can walk sideways here."

"Yagyu Heiichi?" Chen Yu raised his head and narrowed his eyes, staring at the old man. He seemed to have inquired about this old man's name before, and this old guy was a Heavenly Chosen One, advancing extremely fast. When he was in Huaxia, he defeated more than ten experts in a row, and in the end, it was a certain Dharma Cultivator who taught him a lesson.

After being defeated by that Dharma Cultivator, this guy disappeared without a trace, but Chen Yu did not expect to meet him here, which surprised him a little.

Moreover, his current strength had reached that of a Dharma Cultivator near the Spirit Rhinoceros Realm, and this was without any miraculous encounters; this was simply defying the heavens.

Of course, although Chen Yu's current strength was still in the Spirit Rhinoceros Realm, he could kill people two stages above his own, but the fact that this guy could see through Chen Yu's realm meant he had already defeated most people.

"That's right, I wonder if I can sit in this seat and have a drink?" Yagyu Heiichi looked at the empty seat between Zhao Ping and Chen Yu.

"Sorry, this seat is for an elder. He is no longer here, but you cannot sit here." Chen Yu shook his head slowly: "Judging by your posture, you must be an enemy. Don't be impatient; after we finish this meal, I will have a good talk with you."

"I won't wait." Yagyu Heiichi certainly wouldn't stay here and wait. He raised his head and stared at Chen Yu: "Was the Songyi Family matter your doing?"

"It was my doing." Chen Yu admitted it straightforwardly. There was nothing that couldn't be admitted about killing and arson; if it was something he did, it was something he did. It was no big deal.

"Doesn't Your Excellency feel it is too cruel?" Yagyu Heiichi said: "As a Dharma Cultivator, killing unarmed people is like killing ants. Is this really interesting?"

"Cruel?" Chen Yu laughed and stood up: "You have also been to Huaxia. Regarding the crimes they committed in Huaxia back then, do you think it was cruel?"

"They used armored vehicles and machine guns to sweep toward unarmed civilians, women, and children. Is that cruel?"

"Back then, you used the Heaven-Human Realm to kill more than ten of our Huaxia Martial Ancestors in a row. Is that cruel?"
