Chapter 1660 — Crossing Paths Again on a Narrow Road

His alchemical skill might not have been anything impressive, but alchemists were pitifully rare in this day and age. Even among the Hidden Families and ordinary aristocratic families, being able to produce a spirit pellet was already remarkable, let alone a true pill. So Young Master You did have some capital behind his arrogance. Refining low-quality first-grade Yellow Rank pills was not something just anyone could accomplish.
Since Young Master You occasionally managed to refine several pills capable of increasing one's strength, a number of wandering martial experts had naturally gathered around him, all hoping to obtain spiritual medicine to improve their cultivation. Blue Hair was one of them.
In theory, an Earth Rank expert stood worlds apart from a street thug. In their eyes, petty gangsters were no more than filth. Yet, to please Young Master You, they had dyed their hair the same colors favored by those street punks.
"What trouble? Young Master You is going to pick up women. Who said anything about causing trouble?" Yellow Hair offered his counsel. "If the other side starts something first, then it has nothing to do with us. If people from the Hidden Tang Family bully members of our You Family, and we fight back, we'd be completely in the right no matter where the matter was brought up!"
"That makes sense!" Young Master You nodded, then patted Yellow Hair's shoulder with deep approval. "Looks like spending a few days studying at school with me did put some learning in your head. We're going to pick up women. If that brat takes offense first, he can't blame us for showing no mercy!"
"Young Master You, the short one in the middle seems to be Wei Zhao's girlfriend. Let's leave her alone for now and go after the one beside her. She definitely isn't his girlfriend. Otherwise, we'd be in the wrong for trying to poach another man's woman. In a place like this, we can't give anyone an opening to find fault with us." Yellow Hair reminded him.
"As it happens, the one on the side is exactly the one I've taken a fancy to. The one in the middle looks sly and crafty at a glance, the kind of chick with a belly full of schemes, just like that brat. But the one beside her is pure and beautiful, exactly my type!" Young Master You said. "Blue Hair, your eyes are sharp. I haven't come across a top-notch beauty like this in years. If I don't make her mine, I won't be able to settle down. I won't even sleep tonight!"
The closer Young Master You got, the more beautiful Tang Zhi seemed to him. His heart itched terribly, and he was growing almost unbearably impatient.
The two groups reached the restaurant entrance almost at the same time. It truly was a case of enemies meeting on a narrow road. Young Master You strode straight toward Tang Zhi, taking the lead. With Blue Hair, an early Earth Rank expert, at his side, he felt completely secure. Wei Zhao was merely at the peak of the late Mystic Rank; taking him down would be child's play.
The Earth Rank and the peak of the late Mystic Rank were entirely different realms. Though they appeared to be separated by only a single level, the difference in stature was absolute. So long as the Earth Rank expert was not utterly useless, defeating someone at the peak of the late Mystic Rank would be easy and effortless.
"Beautiful, what a coincidence. We meet again!" Young Master You said with a smile to Tang Zhi.
"??" The sudden appearance of the bald man startled Tang Zhi. She had no idea where this thing had come from.
