Legend of the Fighter (2)
Chapters... 110: A Deal
Zhou Fan was in a tavern along with Heng Biyu, he had to hear a story from that woman that was even doubtful of the truth.
"You live a very life, not even the responsibility of spending a lot of money. Who would believe that your life is so sad." It wasn't that Zhou Fan couldn't believe it, it was just that the story was said to be like a theatrical play.
"You must know that there will soon be a competition between great clans."
Zhou Fan nodded, he heard this news through Ciu San. "So what can I do?"
Helping Heng Biyu was also fine, as long as the ice element beast crystal belonged to him.
"You have to fight on behalf of the Heng Clan."
Hearing this Zhou Fan squinted, "I still don't understand where your grief lies, it's completely unrelated."
Heng Biyu wiped his eyes with one hand, "Of course this is related. Many did not know that the true purpose of this competition was to fight over the mineral mines located in the center of Hong City."
Zhou Fan narrowed his eyes, he really only found out about it.
However Heng Biyu was not finished yet, he took a deep breath then continued the explanation. "Through competition five representatives of each clan will fight for first place and will bring home the rights to the mine."
"The right will last up to two years and with the help of the mine the clan will benefit a lot. The Heng clan was in a difficult situation, therefore it had to get first place in the competition."
"This still has nothing to do with you," Zhou Fan said flatly.
"Because of the state of the clan's deterioration, several elders including my father found a husband for me. But who would have thought that all of them were men in their thirties. Then I left the residence and intended to find a husband of my own."
Hearing Heng Biyu's statement, Zhou Fan smiled wryly. "Good, you made me a shield."
"If you're willing to be my husband, I don't mind either." Heng Biyu brought his face closer, making Zhou Fan pull back his body.
"The shield is fine too" said Zhou Fan, who made Heng Biyu pout his lips.
Zhou Fan looked at Hrng Biyu at a glance, now he knew that this woman was not who he had thought she was. Fortunately, he did not say anything that did not happen to him.
"All right, I gotta go. But you have to remember that ice element level eight beast crystal, or else I won't cooperate with you." Zhou Fan got up from his seat, but Heng Biyu quickly stopped.
"Since you have agreed, we will return to the residence of the Heng Clan. It was done so that everyone would believe that you were my future husband."
Zhou Fan just remembered, that the one who can represent the clan in the competition is the descendant of the clan itself or who has a marriage relationship. So does he have to play the part of being this woman's fiancee?
However this was also the way to obtain the ice element beast crystal. There is nothing between them, only a profit-based relationship.
"I'll come with you, but after seeing two of my colleagues."
Heng Biyu nodded, "Alright, I'll drop you off."
Then Zhou Fan returned to the inn, where he intersected with the Two Twin Axes who had just returned from the task his young master had given him.
"You guys stay here, maybe a couple of weeks. I'll go with him, in that time." Zhou Fan took out several bottles of ninth level pill, among them were recovery pill and there was also a moon pill.
Without asking the two nodded, then handed the two rather large bags to Zhou Fan. "Young master, all the materials you asked for are inside."
Zhou Fan stuffed the bag into the storage ring, then passed away with Heng Biyu.
"Sister, isn't the young master too lucky? Wherever he goes, there are always beautiful women swarming around." Ciu San looked at the back of his young master who slowly vanished from sight
"In the Shao Empire there's Miss Lan Ning, then here's miss...what's her name, do you know?" Ciu San stroked his chin, then scratched the nape of the head.
"Either whoever it is, they're obviously not ordinary women." Ciu San smiled, imagining what if he was in a similar position.
Zhi Long who saw the expression of the elder brother patted his shoulder hard. "Sister, you don't fantasize too much. See how you look. Already old, dark skin, spooky face, fat body. Hem... Only an insane woman would want to be with you."
Zhi Long's words were quite sharp, making Ciu San's face turn black. "Try repeating, I'm hearing less."
"And plus less hearing, the more perfect your ugliness." Zhi Long smiled, then darted into the room.
He who was always calm was still holding a grudge for Ciu San's attitude yesterday in the forest. Now that he had the chance, he wouldn't miss it.
"From you, I'm gonna slap you in the face as spooky as I am." Ciu San banged on the door, but there was no reply from within, making him very upset.
...
While on the other hand, Zhou Fan along with Heng Gitu crossed every existing village and arrived at the residence of the Heng Clan after sunset.
"Young lady, you back?" A gatekeeper exclaimed excitedly, without further ado the man darted inside.
Before long an old man came along in a hurry. "Yu'er, where have you been?"
"Would you if the Jing noble family has come in the past few days? They came to propose to you, to marry their eldest son to you." The old man said angrily.
Heng Biyu snorted softly, "Dad, I already said I won't marry the man. He is already thirty-eight years old, too old compared to me who is twenty-four years old."
"You know what, this is also for your good, the good of the clan. Although he was already three-headed, he was undoubtedly the strongest within the forty-year lifespan range. In the competition thirteen more days, the Heng Clan must have obtained first place."
"Isn't he still in the senior fighter, why is it overstated?" Heng Biyu remained adamant.
Yet Heng Biyen-Dad Heng Biyu smiled sneering. "He has risen to be a holy warrior, now what can you say about this?"
"No, I won't accept this marriage. After all I have obtained a future husband, he can represent the Heng Clan in the competition between great clans."
Hearing the princess' words, Heng Biyen turned to the young man whom she thought was only a bodyguard. Nor was it his fault that Zhou Fan's all-black outfit looked like a gatekeeper.
"She, what can she do?"
Zhou Fan who had been silent since then could not bear to keep quiet. "As a parent you force your daughter to marry someone she doesn't want to marry. Then if you ask me what can I do ...."
"Put out your weapon and fight with me!"
