Chapter Eighty-Five: Wind Chasing Sword

  When Luo Qiushui said those decisive words, the atmosphere on the fifth floor of Wang Hai Tower seemed to solidify. The four young masters had different expressions, and afterwards, their gaze towards Zhao Ji was quite strange.

  With a resolute attitude, she expressed her determination and didn't care about the reactions of the four young masters. Luo Qiushui pulled Zhao Ji's hand and walked towards a table by the window, saying softly: "Brother Zhao, let's go eat, don't mind those few, they're boring to death."

  As she sat down beside the table, Luo Qiushui suddenly realized that she was still holding Zhao Ji's hand. Startled, she quickly let go and a touching blush rose to her cheeks.

  "Zhang, what would you like to eat? Wang Hai Lou has a few signature dishes that taste pretty good."

  She rubbed her hands together, wanting to rub away the strange feeling in her heart. Lu Qiushui hurriedly changed the subject to cover up her awkward emotions.

  "You order the dishes, I'm not picky, most importantly, there must be plenty of meat."

  Zhao Ji pushed the way of yielding.

  The two of them started ordering food and enjoyed their meal, while the Four Great Masters were left frustrated, abandoned by Luo Qiushui. Seeing that she no longer paid attention to them, they hung their heads in shame and dispersed.

  The four masters were divided into two groups. Before Luo Qiushui and Zhao Ji arrived, there was Gu Wanda and Guan Feng at one table, and Lu Feng and Lü Yuan at another table. The four of them clearly couldn't get along with each other.

  Luo Qiushui was generous and ordered almost all the signature dishes in Wang Hai Lou, with around twenty to thirty different dishes, a reasonable mix of meat and vegetarian options.

  Twenty or thirty dishes, almost filled a table, usually five or six people can't finish eating, however, Zhao Ji Ke is not an ordinary person, his appetite is not small, after more than half an hour, all the dishes were swept clean.

  After finishing lunch, Luo Qiushui left Wanghai Building directly with Zhao Ji, without even glancing at the Four Great Young Masters. In the afternoon, the two continued to stroll around Sifang City and went to some special places in the city, such as the Administrative Hall, Trading Square, and Auction House.

  The next day, Luo Qiushui accompanied Zhao Ji to play. Originally, he wanted to go out of the city and take a look around the four-sided city, but was stopped by Luo Chongshan.

  At the critical moment when the five major families of Sifang City were negotiating with the Wind Chasers, it was not safe for important members of the five major families like Luo Qiushui to leave the city, as there might be people from the Wind Chasers outside.

  He had originally wanted to leave the city alone, but Luo Qiushui was unwilling, and under helpless circumstances, Zhao Ji could only stroll around the city again, with a beauty accompanying him, and several guards following behind, he felt like he was experiencing the treatment of a rich young master, and it really wasn't bad.

  On the third day, early in the morning, Zhao Ji followed Luo's team and set out towards Mo Liyuan, accompanied by the forces of four other families.

  The manpower mobilized by the five major families is in the tens of thousands. This is absolutely not a figurative expression, but a truly substantial quantity word.

  The five big families grasped the administration, military and commerce of the four-sided city. With the combined strength of the five families, mobilizing tens of thousands of people is not an impossible task.

  However, among these ten thousand people, not everyone is a martial artist. Most of them are ordinary people, including servants and maids from various families, as well as regular soldiers.

  Of course, among the crowd, there is also a small portion of martial artists, probably about 1%, and if it's to deal with the Wind Chasers, these martial artists are still the most effective.

  The five families set off together, with the Gu family in the lead, followed by the Guan, Lu, and Lü families, and the Luo family bringing up the rear.

  This time, going to Mo Liyuan, the Luo family attaches great importance to it. Both Luo Chongshan and Luo Qiushui have come, while the other four families do not attach so much importance to it. The heads of households did not take action, only sending younger generations as representatives.

  The Luo family's team, with over a thousand people, marched out of the city for several miles, each person carrying knives and swords, exuding a fierce and intimidating aura, while the ordinary teams also walked in an orderly manner, displaying a kind of ferocity.

  After all, the Lu family's armed forces were inferior to those of the Gu and Lu families, but today they deployed a considerable force, with over 300 single-handed warriors.

  A thousand-man army, mostly on foot, only a few had horses to ride, and in the team, there were also several horse-drawn carriages moving slowly forward.

  Several horse-drawn carriages were filled with all sorts of supplies, except for the one that Luo Qiushi and her maid rode in.

  In front of Luo's team, there were more than a dozen people riding horses, including Zhao Ji, Luo Chongshan, Luo Fu and Luo Qingyun, the rest were also not weak.

  "Luoshebo, what do you know about the Wind Chaser?"

  As for his opponent, Zhao Ji believed that at least he should know himself and others. Seeing the grand martial arts event that would take place tomorrow, he couldn't help but want to understand more about his enemy.

  If it were said that three days ago, Zhao Ji wanted to go to Mo Liyuan just to see the excitement and broaden his horizons, now he has unconsciously regarded himself as a member of the Luo family camp.

  This change originated from the day before yesterday on Wanghai Building, Luo Qiushui was not afraid to offend the four young masters of Sifang City, but also to maintain herself, which moved his heart.

  "I've actually done some research, if Zhao Xian wants to know, I can tell you about it."

  The road to Luoshan has a confident and determined attitude.

  The Wind Chaser Gang has been so powerful and rampant in the jurisdiction of Sifang City for more than a decade, it's impossible that the Luo family didn't collect any information about them.

  "Then trouble Luo Shi Bo."

  Zhao Ji was also very blunt.

  "Alright then, I'll say something and you all listen."

  His gaze swept over Luo Fu, Luo Qingyun and the dozen or so people behind him before Luo Chongshan spoke in a deep voice.

  More than a decade ago, the Wind Chasers rose to prominence, with the leader being Xue Feng, also known as Zhuge Feng, the master of the Wind Chaser Sword. It was precisely because of Zhuge Feng's reputation with the Wind Chaser Sword that the group later came to be known as the Wind Chaser Thieves.

  Of course, the Wind Chaser comes and goes like the wind, with an unpredictable trajectory, making it impossible for people to grasp its pulse, which is also one of the reasons why the Wind Chaser's reputation has grown so great.

  Pursuing the Wind Bandit has a scale of over a thousand people, perhaps even more. Almost all of them are first-rate warriors, and above that, there are third-rate and second-rate warriors. Most importantly, the strength of Pursuing the Wind Sword, Zhuge Feng, is unfathomable.

  Rumors in Jianghu have it that Zhuge Feng is at least a top-notch martial artist, and possibly even a super-top-notch one, with profound and unmatched cultivation.

  These rumors, whether they are true or not, when Zhuge Feng was young, he indeed made a name for himself in the Jianghu, otherwise, he wouldn't have had the nickname of Pursuing Wind Sword.

  "The Wind Chasers may have many skilled and powerful members, but the Luo family is not necessarily afraid of them. The only concern is that Zhuge Feng is not easy to deal with. This kind of top-notch or even super-top-notch expert can still escape in a siege of thousands of soldiers."

  Looking back at the information about Chui Feng Dao, Luo Zhongshan couldn't help but feel worried and anxious. He furrowed his brow and said in a stern voice: "This time, I hope that Zhuge Feng really has the intention to negotiate, otherwise, we must eliminate him, lest we leave behind a great disaster."
