The Legend of Divine Destiny
LTI 67 - Taoyang City Port

“Gege, I can walk by myself-”

“R onward, please listen to my request. Sit quietly and don't refute my words anymore.”

Jia Huaran and Ling Qiuyu held their breaths when they saw Shen Lao and Chi Rong directly arguing.

Chi Rong finally listened to Shen Lao's words and chose silence. This woman from the Blue Moon Palace sat sweetly on the back of the White Tiger.

On the way Shen Lao conversed with the three women who traveled with him. The four of them were talking about an organization that came from the Ma Empire.

‘Genesis in the Suxue Mountains and Peach Flower Tournament Shen Lao thought hard thinking about all the possibilities that were happening in the future.

As Shen Lao was deep in thought he was unaware of Chi Rong and Ling Qiuyu both wearing face coverings.

Unknowingly they continued walking and arrived in a crowded city. From a distance, it was obvious that the city was crowded. Chi Rong no longer rode the White Tiger, but rather walked alongside Shen Lao, Ling Qiuyu and Jia Huaran.

A river stretched its breadth and dozens of ships docked at the harbor. The lively afternoon atmosphere at the port has overwhelmed shipowners because lately many people visit Taoyang City, and most of the visitors rent a boat to reach Taoyang City.

Shen Lao looked at Chi Rong and Ling Qiuyu who were wearing face coverings. In his heart he could figure out the reason why his two wives were wearing face coverings. Of course as a husband of Chi Rong and Ling Qiuyu, Shen Lao was delighted.

The bustling atmosphere of the harbor made Shen Lao feel a little uncomfortable as most of the men who were in the harbor stared at the three women who were with him for quite a while.

“Sucks!” Shen Lao released a murderous aura and made the men in the harbor hold their breath, even partially frightened.

A moment after Shen Lao released a murderous aura, he immediately released the Dragon Monarch Aura. In an instant the people who were in the harbor did not dare to stare much less deal with Shen Lao.

Chi Rong laughed softly from behind the cover of her face as she recalled Shen Lao doing the same while in Qudong City.

At first glance Ling Qiuyu and Jia Huaran smiled as Shen Lao showed everyone that he deserved to look after them. But Ling Qiuyu realized that despite wearing a face cloth, there were still many men who looked at her and Chi Rong with different looks.

“Rongrong, isn't this fabric too thin.” Ling Qiuyu held the covering cloth and said softly.

Chi Rong smiled faintly, “Kakak Qiuqiu, I think this cloth has already covered our faces. I was also most uncomfortable when I saw the eyes of the ordinary who saw the three of us.”

Only Jia Huaran did not wear the face-covering cloth, this girl did not feel disturbed at all. But Jia Huaran was aware of his status as the son of the Jia Emperor, of course Jia Huaran was sure there were some people who had bad intentions to do something to him, he said, but being near Shen Lao made her feel calm and at ease.

Shen Lao's normally friendly face's sharpness now turned cold. Especially as the distance between the four of them and the ship they were about to order grew shorter, Shen Lao saw that the three women who were with him were uncomfortable because many men were looking at them.

“Gege, I'm uncomfortable.” Chi Rong held onto Shen Lao's robe and pulled it gently.

Shen Lao smiled faintly looking at Chi Rong's spoiled attitude. He gently pinched Chi Rong's cheek and said slowly, “Your beauty is still visible even though the cloth covers your face though.”.

Shen Lao silently watched Chi Rong before continuing his words, “Stay beside me, Rong.”.

Chi Rong pinched Shen Lao's stomach slowly and walked beside Shen Lao and Ling Qiuyu. Many people stayed away after seeing this.

When Shen Lao caught a glimpse of a ship that was empty of passengers, he immediately asked the owner for the time of departure.

“Sorry Young Master, but this ship has been ordered by a mysterious woman. He said to me, if there are three more days there will be a man coming to Taoyang City with three women, and this ship is indeed rented for them.” It was clearly the owner of the ship that made Shen Lao shake his head.

Shen Lao had Chi Rong, Ling Qiuyu and Jia Huaran standing beside him. As the three women stood beside Shen Lao, the ship's owner was shocked because however the person who had rented the ship at this high price gave the money for free only to Shen Lao, Chi Rong, and the other members of the ship, Ling Qiuyu and Jia Huaran.

‘I'm sure Grandma Sumei has ordered this ship.’ Shen Lao nodded as he looked at Chi Rong who he thought also agreed with him.

“Please Young Master. By the way who are these three?” The old ship owner asked him.

“They are my wife.” Shen Lao stared intently at the ship owner. There is no bad intention, but it would be better for Shen Lao to listen to the words of the ship's owner.

“Young Master, while in Taoyang City. You should be careful, especially if you meet the child of the Mayor of Taoyang City.” The owner of the ship slowly. Shen Lao nodded his head.

“Have anything happened lately? I think you know something, it's just that you're hiding it..” Shen Lao replied as he stroked his chin.

The ship owner took a long breath. Actually the ship owner had intended to inform the matter of eliminating the girls in Taoyang City to Chi Sumei's entourage, but the ship owner abandoned his intention. This incident has been going on for a week, the incident where many young girls in Taoyang City suddenly disappeared.

Shen Lao who heard the explanation of the ship owner raised his eyebrows, “Then why did you tell me to be careful of the child of the Mayor of Taoyang City?”

“Because I saw for myself how the goddamn mayor's son tortured a young girl who had died. That night I saw him guarded by two warriors.” The owner of the ship showed a puncture scar and an incision in his body, “This wound is proof.”

Upon seeing the wound, Shen Lao learned that the incision and slash scars were still new. He nodded his head briefly and said, “Great also you can live and just get hurt. Most people will die.”

“I myself was also astonished. But at that time I met with a group of warriors from Ancient Flowers. I don't know why the two warriors who were after me were scared, and I was helped by a beautiful girl from the group of warriors.” The ship owner explained.

After quite a long conversation, Shen Lao finally sat down with Chi Rong, Ling Qiuyu and Jia Huaran who were eating together while enjoying the view of the sunset on the Taoyang City river.

As the ship was about to depart, Shen Lao noticed an old man walking back and forth, while beside the old man was a woman standing quietly staring at the ship he was riding on.

“Dad, I think we only need to fly rather than having to cross this river by boat.” The woman wearing the face-covering cloth said. While an old grandfather who walks back and forth still insists on finding his lost money.

“Xiaxia, sometimes we have to duck and not show the advantages we have.” Said the old man while looking at the woman.

“Didn't our travel money, dad spent it drinking wine?” The calm-looking woman spoke and left the old man speechless in a thousand languages.

“True too..” The old grandfather muttered softly.

Just as the old grandfather and the woman were about to leave from the harbor, Shen Lao approached the two and told them to both board the ship that Chi Sumei had hired.

“If you don't mind, senior can board the same ship as me this?”
