Chapter 3: The Sentiments of Youth
Luming Town remains Luming Town, bustling with activity at the morning market, where people come and go, and the flow is unceasing
Luming Town is that small, and events such as Zheng Ming marrying a celestial-like wife spread faster than Zheng Ming's journey home
Fu Yuqing! The three simple words are a response to Zheng Ming's question
Just now, while walking with Zheng Ming, Fu Yuqing, who was full of vigor, at this moment seemed to have transformed into a different person, gently saying like a young bride: "Your brother just said he wants to marry me, so I should be your second sister-in-law! As for Xiao Xuan, I believe she will be even more beautiful than me in the future."
One day, I will stand at the top of this world!" Zheng Ming shouted loudly while looking at the big tree
I must let the world know that I, Zheng Ming, am undoubtedly the person standing at the pinnacle of the world
Lying on his own bed, feeling the still existing prestige value of one in his heart, Zheng Ming felt somewhat despondent
The woman looked carefully at Zheng Ming for a moment and found that he spoke with a serious expression, which did not seem feigned. Her evaluation of the young man rose a few notches in that instant
They felt that the usually kind Second Young Master of the Zheng family was now exuding a murderous aura, presenting an attitude that warned others not to provoke him
As for this journey of bullying men and dominating women, can it be considered a success? Or has it not succeeded?
From Fu Yuqing's words, there is no trace of sarcasm, nor is there any hint of mockery; what Zheng Ming can perceive is a sense of aloof disregard.
The woman cannot bring herself to act, and the man is too old, yet she still cannot bring herself to act. This one is quite robust, but over the years, he has always greeted himself with a smile, and they are somewhat familiar with each other. If she were to directly go up and give him a beating, it seems inappropriate.
Just consider me as someone who starts and abandons things!" Zheng Ming gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice
Without discussing how Wu Bansian explained it over there, let us speak of Zheng Ming, who cast a cold and stern glance at an individual in the morning market.
He knows that there are two words in this world: momentum. His father, Zheng Gongxuan, although the strongest person in Luming Town, possesses little in the way of momentum.
Seeing the restaurant owner, who resembled a mountain of meat, Wu Bansian felt an overwhelming urge to cry. Before he could even discern the situation, seven or eight more people surrounded him, each glaring at Wu Bansian with anger.
Without speaking to Fu Yuqing, Zheng Ming stepped away from the grove; that damned reputation value, he must increase it today!
The youthful sentiments are always poetic!" It was as if he spoke softly to himself, and Fu Yuqing casually turned his head away.
At this moment, Zheng Ming felt a sharp pain coursing through his body. However, he paid no heed to the pain and instead looked at the leaves that had merely fallen gently with a look of unwillingness on his face
Zheng Ming glanced at the woman who was gently strolling behind him, and he couldn't help but feel that he was the true victim of this incident of bullying and oppression.
Fu Yuqing, resembling a new bride, was taken away as if she were the leading lady, while Zheng Ming remained in a state of disarray at that moment
He is aware that he is neither a good person nor a bad person; he can perform good deeds for the sake of reputation throughout the town, and he is equally capable of giving a beating to the swindler Wu Banjian.
Zheng Ming looked at Fu Yuqing, whose expression changed in an instant, feeling a wave of frustration in his heart. However, when he regained his composure from the frustration, he discovered that the two adults and one child at his doorstep had transformed from strangers into lively conversation partners.
Just as he was pondering how to escape this calamity, eight-year-old Zheng Xiaoxuan had already bounced over to Fu Yuqing, full of curiosity, and said: "Sister, are you my second sister-in-law? You are truly beautiful. I hope that when I grow up, I will be half as beautiful as you are."
The extremely frustrated Zheng Ming discovered that his reputation value was still 1 at this moment. It seems that apart from Master Wu Bansian, no one in the entire town still fears him
This shout expresses his unwillingness, it conveys his persistence, and it reveals the determination that he has concealed beneath his calm demeanor over the years
The young woman looked at the boy who was rubbing his hands, and the smile in her eyes instantly increased by three points. She chuckled softly and said, "Are you really going to abandon me after starting something, my husband?"
Duan Yangying, with a beaming smile, said to Fu Yuqing: "As for Zheng Ming's nonsense, you need not take it to heart! Of course, if you can find my son suitable, when he is a bit older, it would not be impossible for you to arrange things between you."
However, he soon comforted himself, saying that no matter what, he had already achieved a breakthrough of zero, and at worst, he could go and beat someone up tomorrow
This is truly an ancient injustice
Regarding Fu Yuqing, although Zheng Ming had long planned to keep a respectful distance, her words at this moment still provoked Zheng Ming
In order to obtain his damned reputation points, I have no choice but to go all out!
Upon arriving in this world, Zheng Ming may not be able to calmly observe the blooming and withering of flowers, but he is able to maintain his true self and remain indifferent to the idle gossip of others
The pedestrians in Luming Town all cast astonished glances at the woman following behind Zheng Ming, and some even began to spread the amusing tale that the second young master of the Zheng family had married such a celestial beauty at the first opportunity.
"Wu Bansian, you old immortal, what exactly did you say to the Second Young Master yesterday? How did a perfectly fine person end up like this!" Wu Bansian, who was carefully swallowing the last mouthful of porridge, was suddenly grabbed by the collar and shouted at.
Before reaching his own doorstep, Zheng Ming saw his mother, Yang Ying, standing at the entrance waiting for him, accompanied by his younger sister, Zheng Xiaoxuan, and several servants
Forget it, just choose a goal!
Her descent from the mountain this time was aimed at engaging in worldly practice in order to break through the shackles that currently trouble her. However, despite having traveled to many places during this foray into the world, she still finds it difficult to integrate into ordinary life
Your qualifications, even if you were to obtain the Nine Dragons Golden Elixir, would at most allow you to cultivate to the level of a Seventh-Rank Warrior; you are far from the pinnacle of the world
Fu Yuqing gently shook her head. Although she greatly admired Zheng Ming's confidence, the world is not as simple as just having confidence.
Looking into the unwavering eyes of Zheng Ming, which contained boundless determination, Fu Yuqing felt a flicker of uncertainty rise within her heart
This bamboo board was a prop that Duan Yangying used in the past to scare Zheng Ming. However, now, looking at his mother's face in this life, Zheng Ming feels a sense of foreboding about a significant matter.
He does not know the background of this woman, but he cannot bring trouble to his own family. This woman has an unknown origin, and there may be some difficult dangers lurking behind her
"Generally, those who indulge in promiscuity and abandon their partners will meet a terrible end!" The woman's voice was indifferent, yet at that moment, a palpable aura of murderous intent enveloped Zheng Ming.
Although his bear hug technique has not made any progress over the years, Zheng Ming has never ceased practicing the bear hug technique.
The iron bear crashed into the tree! Zheng Ming's body collided heavily against a tree trunk as thick as a bowl, causing the branches to shake wildly and a few scattered leaves to fall down
"Elder sister, this is truly a misunderstanding!" Looking at the woman walking behind him, who exuded an air of a queen on a procession, Zheng Ming finally made up his mind
So it was just a joke. Such jokes, my husband, it would be better for you to refrain from making in the future, lest I lose my composure... What would happen if I lost my composure? The woman did not elaborate, but her chilling words caused a tremor in Zheng Ming's heart.
In no time, the saying that good people are rewarded began to spread throughout the town.
As a girl, how can you manage on your own? If you don't mind, you can stay at our home. Although our family may not be as affluent as those big households outside, we will certainly ensure that you are not wronged.
If the Bear Hug technique breaks through the second level, then this impact can definitely shake off all the leaves from the big tree. If the Bear Hug technique breaks through the third level, one can generate internal energy within oneself and strike the big tree to split it into two segments
No, it is you, the esteemed elders and fellow villagers, who should make a sacrifice! Just as Zheng Ming had made up his mind, a commotion arose ahead!
However, those who were about to greet Zheng Ming, upon seeing him at that moment, swallowed all their words of greeting.
Adhering to the principle that a wise man does not suffer immediate losses, Zheng Ming had no choice but to wave his hand at the woman and say: "How could I bear to abandon you, my sister? That was merely a joke just now!"
Fortunately, Zheng Gongxuan, the head of the town, went yesterday with Zheng Heng, Zheng Ming's elder brother, and some guards to the family in Qingchuan County to pay this year's tribute. Therefore, after passing the Duanyang Ying threshold, no one spoke to Zheng Ming again
In that case, if Wu Bansian does not provide an explanation, you shall not escape from this dining table today
At this moment, in the hands of her younger sister, Zheng Xiaoxuan, there was still a bamboo board that was three fingers wide.
In a calm voice, Fu Yuqing, dressed in a long white gown, appeared strangely not far from Zheng Ming. At this moment, although she had not made any effort in grooming, she appeared even more slender at the waist like a willow, standing gracefully.
"Then just wait for me to be your wife!" Zheng Ming's words were calm, yet filled with confidence
By defeating five individuals in a day, one should be able to accumulate the required prestige points within a month
At this moment, Wu Bansian had tears welling up in his eyes. It was clearly an inexplicable beating he had received, yet these foolish village women still placed the blame on him, the victim.
"May I ask your surname, esteemed lady?" As they approached the doorstep, Zheng Ming turned his head once more to address the woman.
However, the words that Zheng Ming intercepted sparked a flicker of inspiration in her heart, leading her to perceive this as an opportunity that was about to unfold in her own life
However, this lofty disdain, this indifference, ignited a fire within him. This fire was not solely directed at Fu Yuqing; rather, it transformed into a form of ambition!
And this woman, relying solely on her imposing presence, is able to make herself tremble; it seems that this time, I have truly struck gold!
However, she is not an ordinary person, and she instantly returned to normal. Thinking that she had been intimidated by a boy who was not even a martial artist, a sense of competitiveness surged within her: "Don't say you stand at the pinnacle of the world; as long as you can break through to the first rank, I will truly make the bed and fold the blankets for you as your wife"
After a personal veto, Zheng Ming discovered that he had already walked halfway down the only street in Luming Town.
The Sixteen Styles of Bear Hug technique was executed meticulously by Zheng Ming, whose fair forehead was ultimately completely covered in sweat
Under this atmosphere of impending danger, Zheng Ming felt his heart trembling
On the second day, as soon as dawn broke, Zheng Ming did not immediately proceed to execute his villainous plan, but instead went to the small woods outside the town to practice martial arts
What if I could stand at the top of this world
