Chapter 1605 — Clashing Again
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 2
Watching Shen Yushu's move, Wei Zhao suddenly felt a pang of pity for the bald man — his head certainly wasn't harder than a bowling ball! But after taking two steps, Wei Zhao's expression darkened even further, because he actually recognized this bald man!
"What, no respect? You refuse to dance with this young master, and now you won't even share a drink with him?" The bald man glared at Gu Mengyao, his tone dripping with displeasure. Had it not been for his aversion to roughing up women, he would have had her dragged away long ago.
"No drinks? Then how about a bowling ball!" Shen Yushu swung the bowling ball and smashed it straight into the back of the bald man's skull. He dropped face-first onto the ground, blood streaming from the back of his head!
"Young Master You!" The thugs surrounding Young Master You never expected a wild card to charge in from nowhere and attack him! They were all Profound Tier experts — no small feat by any measure — but their attention had never been on guard duty, and none of them had anticipated a sudden assault!
The reason Wei Zhao hadn't stopped Shen Yushu was that he had already recognized the bald man's identity. This was the so-called Young Master You he'd encountered in the exam hall — the one who had tried to copy Wang Xinyan's paper!
So Wei Zhao wasn't worried that Shen Yushu might kill the bald man. If he died, he died. Clans and Hidden Clans each had their own ways of settling scores.
"Damn it, you're courting death!" The blond-haired thug beside Young Master You spun around, ready to beat Shen Yushu down. He no longer cared whether she was a girl — she dared smash a bowling ball into Young Master You's head, and he was supposed to let her walk away?
But Wei Zhao had already pulled Shen Yushu behind him a beat earlier, staring coldly at the blond thug. "What, you'd like another round of flying through the air?"
"Huh?" The blond thug froze. The moment he made out Wei Zhao's face, his expression turned hideously ugly. He never would have guessed these two girls were connected to Wei Zhao! He'd already gotten the worst of it during the exam, and now — suddenly, his eyes lit up!
He couldn't best Wei Zhao himself, but someone here could! After the incident last time, Young Master You had specifically requested an external-style expert from the family at the late peak of the Profound Tier as his personal bodyguard — and the sole purpose was to deal with Wei Zhao!
So the blond thug shouted in a hurry, "Brother Gun, this kid is an internal-style expert at the late Profound Tier! He's a tough one — you'll have to handle him! He's the one who embarrassed Young Master You last time!"
Brother Gun lived up to his name — built like a hemp stalk, tall and gangly. Unlike the blond and purple-haired thugs, he hadn't dyed his hair; instead, his was a salt-and-pepper gray. Clearly, no matter how hard he tried to look young, he could never pass as a student alongside Young Master You. So a bodyguard like him could only follow Young Master You outside — returning to school with him was simply out of the question.
When Brother Gun heard that Wei Zhao was a late Profound Tier expert, he gave a slight start, but he didn't pay it much mind! He had long been established as a late-peak Profound Tier external-style expert. In his eyes, Wei Zhao was merely a youngster who didn't know how to break through — even if he had some strength, it was probably unstable.
As for Wei Zhao's background, Young Master You had spent half a day investigating after returning home without uncovering anything! He was only a second son of the family, so he couldn't mobilize the full resources of the You clan. He could only inquire here and there whether any Hidden Clan had a member resembling Wei Zhao — but from the reports brought back, no one matched Wei Zhao's appearance at all. So Young Master You put his mind at ease!
