Chapter 2509 — You're Wei Zhao?
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"Ah! Someone's causing you trouble? Is it serious? Do you need my help?" Yang Qiqi asked instinctively. The man before her was Wei Zhao, and this realization brought about a subtle shift in her heart.
Yang Qiqi's change of attitude left Wei Zhao even more at a loss for words. This girl was suddenly concerned about him? Wei Zhao shook his head and smiled. "It's nothing. Just look after yourself."
"Oh..." A sudden sense of unease came over Yang Qiqi, a feeling of gain and loss. For some reason, the hatred she had felt toward Wei Zhao a moment ago had vanished all at once... Could it be that she had feelings for him? Impossible, surely? She was steadfast in her love for Brother Xiao Yi—how could she give her heart to another? Impossible. Absolutely impossible!
That was it. It must be because he had given her the earth-element Heaven-rank spirit-beast blood. For the sake of saving Xiao Jiu, she had let him off and treated him a little better. That had to be it.
"I'm off." Wei Zhao stayed no longer, for he had noticed that Han Xiaohu seemed to have run into a bit of trouble over there as well.
That trouble came from You Pan'gao of the hidden You family. At that moment You Pan'gao was pointing at Han Xiaohu and Yu Xiaoke with a swaggering, arrogant air: "Who was that person sitting with you just now? Don't tell me you don't know him! Tell me, and I'll only go after him—I won't do anything to you."
"You guessed right, actually—we really don't know him." Han Xiaohu had followed Wei Zhao for some time now, and his bearing had long since been transformed. He was no longer the timid, cautious Han Xiaohu of the hidden Han family. Although the hidden Han family still could not be mentioned in the same breath as the hidden You family, so long as Wei Zhao stood by the hidden Han family, the hidden You family would not dare touch them.
"You—" You Pan'gao flew into a rage. He had not expected this fellow before him to be so tactless as to actually talk back to him: "Do you know who I am?"
"I know. Aren't you called You Pan'gao? Mr. Lu has said it plenty of times—you're from the hidden You family!" Han Xiaohu said flatly.
"If you know I'm from the hidden You family, then why do you oppose me?" You Pan'gao demanded furiously.
"So what if I oppose you? I don't mind telling you—you're really no match for me." To Han Xiaohu, You Pan'gao, who could do nothing but refine pills, was an easy opponent to handle.
"Who are you?" You Pan'gao was both alarmed and enraged.
"Enough. You're looking for me, aren't you? What are you shouting for? I haven't run off—I just went to collect the pure yellow jade." Wei Zhao clapped You Pan'gao on the shoulder and said mildly.
You Pan'gao had been fuming, and the sudden clap on the shoulder from behind gave him quite a start. The reason he had gone to Han Xiaohu and Yu Xiaoke in the first place was his fear that Wei Zhao would slip away, but now that Wei Zhao had returned, there was no need to trouble anyone else. He turned to face Wei Zhao directly: "Why did you hit me? Do you know who I am?"RQ
