The Immortal Cultivation World of Male Inferiority and Female Supremacy-Chapter 88 - : 88. Hero Saves the Beauty
Chapter 88: 88. Hero Saves the Beauty
Many bystanders were present, yet no one was willing to speak up for the young girl; it was a scavenger who stepped forward.
Fang Zhou originally thought that Guo Baomu, with her thievish brows and rat-like eyes, did not seem like a good person, but it turned out he had wronged her.
Guo Baomu stopped the ruffian’s tugging, walked over and separated the two: “Everyone, in public like this, is it seemly to be tugging and pulling like that?”
“Guo Baomu?”
The ruffian clearly recognized Guo Baomu, showing a surprised look, he gritted his teeth and said, “Even if it’s you, you can’t let me suffer for nothing.”
“Of course, nothing escapes the discernment of these treasure eyes of mine, Guo Baomu. The value of this ancestral item, just one look and I’ll know.”
Guo Baomu said proudly, then turned to ask the young girl, “Don’t panic, I will help you identify if she’s deliberately asking for an exorbitant price.”
The young girl was already on the verge of tears, and seeing someone willing to help, naturally nodded her head repeatedly in agreement.
Guo Baomu squatted down, picked up a piece of porcelain fragment, and after examining it for a moment, clicked her tongue and said, “Indeed, it is an antique. Although it’s not the exorbitant price she claims, it is still a valuable item.”
The young girl grew anxious again, “Then, what should I do?!”
Guo Baomu pondered for a moment, her gaze landing on the longsword the young girl carried on her back, and said in a deep voice, “Ah, to help is to help to the end, who calls me the most fond of helping others out of trouble? How about this, I’ll offer a high price to buy your weapon, then add a bit of my own money to compensate her, how’s that?”
The ruffian said immediately, “Good, I’ve always admired Guo Baomu’s sense of fairness. I accept your proposal.”
Thus, Guo Baomu and the ruffian both turned their gazes to the young girl, waiting for her to decide.
The girl was completely dumbfounded, “This… this…”
The watching Fang Zhou was about to vomit from watching; this was clearly a scam to trap outsiders. And here he thought Guo Baomu was a good person, but she turned out to be scum, too.
Indeed, Fang Zhou had seen right from the start; that person, with her thievish brows and rat-like eyes, was no good.
Don’t these scammers fear that the person they swindle might pass the trial to enter the Heavenly Sword Sect and come back for retribution?
Looking at the alone and helpless young girl, Fang Zhou hesitated. He didn’t want to cause trouble, but his sense of justice was stirring.
Before he could make a decision, a voice filled with righteousness suddenly rang out: “Stop!”
A brocade-dressed young lady leapt out from the crowd, pointing at the two and said, “Under the broad daylight and the heavens, you dare to swindle together?”
The crowd of onlookers, which had been about to disperse, suddenly came back together, not expecting such an exciting twist.
The faces of the ruffian and Guo Baomu instantly darkened; someone dared to ruin their scheme.
It seemed that the reputation of the Cloud Sea Gang wasn’t loud enough.
The ruffian spoke viciously, “Where did this stupid woman come from, get lost, it’s none of your business here.”
But the brocade-dressed young lady maintained a righteous expression, “When seeing injustice on the road, I draw my sword to assist, this is the spirit of us cultivators.”
Her words slightly moved Fang Zhou, as if seeing a hint of Yan Chixia in her. Of course, this person couldn’t be Yan Chixia; Yan Chixia hasn’t been dead long, even if the Underworld expedited the case to allow her reincarnation, at most, she would only now be a tadpole.
The brocade-dressed young lady shouted directly at the swindled silly girl, “Stop being foolish, they are all in cahoots, duping you together.”
The girl showed a look of shock, “So that’s how it is; I knew something was off.”
She immediately glared at Guo Baomu and her accomplice with a hostile gaze.
Guo Baomu slapped her jade fan fiercely and said in a harsh tone, “Very well, how dare someone slander my reputation, Guo Baomu. Today I must seek justice from you.”
With that, Guo Baomu charged straight at the brocade-dressed young lady.
The brocade-dressed young lady excitedly drew the sword she carried: “Bring it on, I, Chu Yunfei, shall uphold justice today.”
The two immediately engaged in battle, with Chu Yunfei in the minor accomplishment of the Qi Refining Realm and Guo Baomu of the same realm, they were unexpectedly evenly matched.
However, in Fang Zhou’s eyes, they were just like chickens pecking at each other. If he stepped in, it probably wouldn’t take a second to lay them both flat.
Fang Zhou suddenly realized something at this moment—was the Qi Refining Realm really this weak? No wonder they’re just cannon fodder.
Wait, am I also from the Qi Refining Realm?
The girl who got tricked saw Chu Yunfei make a move and immediately drew her sword to fight back: “I’ll help you!”
But there was still a ruffian nearby, who quickly put his finger to his lips and whistled loudly.
Accompanied by the whistle, a bald head, no, several bald heads, burst from the crowd, belonging to muscular women.
These two really had accomplices, no wonder the onlookers didn’t dare to help from the start.
Neither Chu Yunfei nor the girl had the ability to fight multiple opponents, and the two were quickly pinned down to the ground.
Guo Baomu stepped on Chu Yunfei, sneering: “Imposing justice on behalf of the heavens? I’ll let you witness today what it means to truly impose justice on behalf of the heavens.”
At this point, she no longer concealed her connection with the ruffian and his gang.
Fang Zhou silently picked up a few pebbles from the ground, preparing to show this sly-looking guy, what it means not to show off, for those who show off are struck by lightning; Heaven doesn’t need you to impose justice on its behalf, let alone for you to show off pretending to be it.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—
A few pebbles shot out from the shadows, striking the smug-faced Guo Baomu and knocking out her teeth, her mouth full of blood.
“Who? Who dares to ambush me?”
Guo Baomu covered her mouth, her angry gaze sweeping around, finally landing on Fang Zhou.
The reason she could spot Fang Zhou out of so many people at a glance was mainly because his simple mask was too conspicuous, leaving a deep impression on Guo Baomu.
The crowd swiftly parted, revealing Fang Zhou and the pebbles in his hand.
Fang Zhou: ?????
It wasn’t me who threw them, although I wanted to throw them, I haven’t thrown them yet.
Who the hell is framing me?
Fang Zhou was dumbfounded; he had just picked up the pebbles when someone else used stones to ambush Guo Baomu, and now even if he jumped into the Yellow River he couldn’t clear his name.
“So it’s you!”
Guo Baomu, furious, charged towards Fang Zhou.
Fang Zhou let out a slight sigh; he hadn’t intended to get involved, but now it seemed he couldn’t avoid taking action.
Fortunately, it was just a bunch of nobodies, easy to deal with. The main concern was that fighting the small fries might draw out their bosses, one wave after another, which would be tiresome.
However, before Fang Zhou could make a move, a surge of powerful energy came flying, hitting Guo Baomu and instantly knocking her to the ground.
The energy didn’t dissipate but instead twisted and turned, swirling around, knocking down more than a dozen bald women.
Then, a woman dressed in dark blue long robes descended from the sky, landing in the center of the crowd, just so happening to step on Guo Baomu’s back.
This woman was very beautiful, with long hair casually tied with a ribbon, her demeanor casual and elegant, like a celestial being exiled from heaven.
“It’s Master Xuan Ling!!”
“As expected of a True Disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect.”
“Master Xuan Ling, look this way!”
The onlooking crowd played the part of a chorus, letting out waves of fangirl-like gasps and praise.

Fang Zhou also clicked his tongue in admiration; look at her, that’s how you show off. Guo Baomu, that was just acting foolishly.
Before Fang Zhou could finish his contemplations, he saw the woman in blue turning towards him, with a flippant smile she said: “Little brother, you’re not hurt, are you?”
Fang Zhou was momentarily stunned, damn it, so you’ve come not just to show off, but also to flirt.
