Zhuge Gang forced himself to calm down.

Having roamed the world for many years, he has also experienced many crises.

He knew he could do the same technique of shooting coins, but it would never be as easy.

Even if you know you're not as skilled as others, you can't lose face.

"Impressive tactics," Zhuge Gang's voice deepened. "Who are you? Why don't you show your true face?"

The yellow-shirted man's mournful howls on the ground stopped abruptly, like a duck whose neck had been suddenly torn off.

Inviting the moon's black shoes were removed from his broken neck.

"So noisy!"

Her deep, masculine voice already carried a hint of anger.

It's estimated that he wasn't just speaking to the corpse, but also responding to Zhuge Gang.

Afei's heart sank.

This design of the game caused Yaoyue to lose face completely.

As the mistress of the palace, she was actually plotted against by a villain.

Not only did they make a wasted trip, but they were also outmaneuvered by their own "prey" halfway through the journey.

Even though no one else discovered her identity except herself.

However, if Yaoyue easily kills Zhuge Gang in a fit of anger, their focus will still be on themselves afterwards.

Instead, we should shift their attention to Zhuge Gang.

Given this man's treacherous and cunning nature, his actions are bound to provoke the two women, Xingyue and the other woman.

In that way, the two sisters shifted their focus to him, creating an opportunity for themselves to escape.

Zhuge Gang's face twitched a few times.

He was truly uncertain, because he had absolutely no idea what the two men in black were all about.

Even the boy seemed increasingly mysterious.

Ah Fei suddenly laughed:

"Every master has their quirks, so what's a little face covering? But no one wants to be bossed around."

He said to Zhuge Gang:

"If we want to attract talent, we need to be more friendly. How about we sit down and have a drink together?"

If these words were spoken by a teenager, they would probably just be taken as a joke.

However, Lianxing's previous finger-flicking skill had intimidated Zhuge Gang.

This will surely make Zhuge Gang take him seriously.

How could someone who can sit at the same table as a peerless master be simple?

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Gang remained hesitant.

He has already lost face. If he backs down now, wouldn't that tarnish his reputation as the "Sweeping Across a Thousand Armies" Zhuge Gang?

If word gets out, he will never be able to hold his head up high, either in the martial arts world or within the gang.

But then I thought about it again, and it turned out to be an opportunity.

If force doesn't work, try a softer approach. If that still fails, then seize the opportunity to ambush the three of them.

The reason is that if these people's superb martial arts skills cannot be used by the "Money Gang", they will become an obstacle on its path to rise.

We must eliminate the hidden dangers first.

What he can't have, he'll destroy!

With this thought in mind, he calmed himself and stepped closer.

Zhuge Gang smiled kindly again and said:

"My subordinates and I were indeed impolite just now, please forgive us."

He then said to A-Fei, "Young hero, you are exceptionally talented and full of vigor. Your future achievements will surely be limitless."

"May I ask your name, young hero?"

After thinking for a moment, Afei said, "Just call me Afei."

He sighed inwardly, thinking that Zhuge Gang was indeed a man of deep cunning.

He could still laugh and joke even when his subordinate died right before his eyes.

Judging from the speed of his change in expression, it was as if that subordinate had nothing to do with him.

But he must have had a more important purpose, which is why he changed his mind so quickly.

Just as Zhuge Gang was about to sit down, he suddenly heard Yaoyue snort coldly.

"Did I tell you to sit down? What right do you have?"

A slight frustration rose in her heart, simply because she had spent two days trying to find out Ah Fei's name.

Even after sending Lianxing out, Afei still kept him at arm's length.

But now, he said it so easily.

The important thing is that it wasn't her or Lianxing who asked.

This made her feel inferior.

Afei raised an eyebrow and glanced at Yaoyue's bronze mask.

This older sister is indeed about to cause trouble.

It seems that Zhuge Gang's actions really displeased her; killing a subordinate was not enough to quell her anger.

There's probably also an element of resentment towards oneself involved.

Just because I interrupted, she insisted on going against me.

He found it amusing, but said to Yaoyue seriously:

"Since he has admitted his mistake and you have vented your anger, we martial arts practitioners should be more magnanimous."

He said with righteous indignation, "One should also broaden one's mind, don't you agree, brother?"

I deliberately emphasized the words "heart and mind" and "open-minded".

If one is narrow-minded, then another test might be needed.

He thought to himself secretly.

Suddenly, Yaoyue took a deep breath.

His hands, hidden under his sleeves, were trembling with anger.

She seemed to see herself having that "friendly" meeting with Ah Fei again.

Ever since Ah Fei escaped from her grasp, the image of that moment has flashed through her mind from time to time.

This made Yaoyue feel somewhat dazed.

Fortunately, I wore a mask on this trip, so no one noticed anything unusual.

But even with her anger fueled, she still had to exercise extreme self-control.

Even if she were facing teenagers, she would never want to give them anything to talk about.

Even if she hasn't been recognized yet, she has to patiently put on a magnanimous act.

Lianxing glanced at her eldest sister, assuming she was angered by Zhuge Gang.

She was completely unaware of the previous entanglement between Yaoyue and Afei.

Although the "Wedding Dress Divine Skill" has been proven to be fake, she became increasingly curious about A-Fei in front of her.

Why did the older sister react so strongly to him?

Why is he so mature at such a young age?

What kind of experiences shaped this person?

From Afei's calm expression, she seemed to see herself being forced to grow up.

Little did Lianxing know that when a woman becomes curious about a man, danger ensues.

She just really wanted to know what Ah Fei's purpose was.

When faced with someone who seemed to have had similar difficult experiences to her, she wanted to go along with him and take care of him.

But when it comes to matters between men and women, once you give in the first time, you'll want to do it again.

Having lived in the deep palace for so long, Lianxing naturally had no experience with this.

So she surprisingly changed her attitude and spoke up for Ah Fei:

"If I am not mistaken, this person should be the legendary 'Sweeping Through a Thousand Armies' Zhuge Gang with his Vajra Crutch."

Lianxing spoke to Yaoyue in a soft, charming, and slightly mischievous tone:

"This man became famous more than a decade ago. Why don't you do him a favor, brother?"

More than a decade ago, she and Yaoyue were just little girls in their early teens.

By then, Zhuge Gang's name was already well-known in the martial arts world.

It wouldn't be an insult to them to sit at the same table with such people.

He gave a cold snort and said nothing more.

It seems that he agrees with what Lianxing said.

But she knew in her heart that the bigger reason was actually what A-Fei had said unintentionally.

I actually think she's narrow-minded, even though I've seen it before!

She was wearing a mask, so Ah Fei didn't recognize her.

Then let Ah Fei know that she is actually a magnanimous woman.

After their chance encounter at the inn, Yaoyue found herself constantly going against Afei.

I just don't want him to have his way.

Zhuge Gang had already sat down, still wearing a gentle smile.

He seemed completely oblivious to Yaoyue's anger and disgust.

Old and cunning, he knew very well that he couldn't speak rudely now, otherwise he wouldn't be able to get close to this group of people.

He poured the wine himself and did not let his subordinates do it for him.

He knew that would make him seem aloof and superior.

"This cup is an apology for disturbing you all," he said, raising his glass. "I'll drink a penalty cup first."

Then he poured more wine, and just as he was about to pour wine for Yaoyue, Lianxing raised her hand to stop him.

"No need for that, my brother and I have never touched a drop of alcohol."

Lianxing said with a smile.

Zhuge Gang looked at the wine that Afei had poured for Lianxing earlier.

His eye twitched.

The wine that Ah Fei poured for me was fine, but I wouldn't drink it if he poured it for me?

Although they were sitting at the same table, they still didn't take him seriously.

Killing his men was one thing, refusing to let him sit at the table was another, and now they won't even give him face when he lowers himself to pour him wine.

It's outrageous to make fun of him time and time again.

Although he smiled gently, his anger was burning fiercely inside.

Since his debut, no junior has ever dared to humiliate him like this.

However, Zhuge Gang had already achieved his goal of getting close to the three of them.

He was confident that he could severely injure the three of them in one fell swoop by launching a sneak attack at such close range.

Therefore, even if they beg for mercy later, he will definitely kill them to vent his anger!
