Chapter 57: Chapter 40: Duel Outcome, Exaggeration, Truth?

Translator: 549690339

In the blink of an eye, it was the 25th of May.

That afternoon, Lu Yuan invited Sun Siwen to the tavern in town for a drink.

It had become a new habit for the two of them in recent days.

The main reason was that Lu Yuan wanted to gather more information in the tavern.

Keeping an eye on the trends in Jianghu was one of his preparations.

With the start of the duel between Eagle King and Iron Sword, no one knew how the waves in Jianghu caused by the Black Wind Gang would turn out.

But one thing Lu Yuan was sure of was that this duel, even if it ended with a victory or defeat, would not be the end of the chaos but the beginning of a greater turmoil.

“After all, the duel seems to be between Black Wind Gang and Iron Sword Sect. But the real game behind it is the martial arts world of South Sea Prefecture and Yuzhang Prefecture.

The South Sea Prefecture wants to expand northward, while Yuzhang Prefecture wants to defend its territory.

This chaotic fight is just the beginning, and it’s still a long way from the end…”

During this time, Lu Yuan had grasped some clues and figured out some truths behind the chaos caused by Black Wind Gang after sorting through various pieces of news, real or fake, that had circulated from all over the place.

He figured out that the martial arts struggle between Yuzhang Prefecture and South Sea Prefecture was happening.

As for whether there was a deeper secret behind it, it was unknown due to the limitations of the current news and intelligence.

With these thoughts in mind, Lu Yuan and Sun Siwen arrived at the tavern.

As soon as they reached the entrance, a waiter saw them and immediately greeted them warmly.

“Lord Lu! Scholar Sir!”

The county of Dayu was a small place with a small population, and everyone was familiar with each other.

Previously, Lu Yuan had repelled Scarface from the Black Wolf Gang in the county town, which happened directly at the bustling entrance of the market. On that day, countless people had come and gone, including two people from Yangmei Town.. freewebnove(l).com

When the two people from Yangmei Town saw Lu Yuan’s heroic deed, they were amazed and spread the news when they returned to the town.

The Black Wolf Gang was the largest gang in the county, and in the eyes of the common people, they were like the government, the sky in Dayu County. If Lu Yuan could force them to retreat, wouldn’t that mean he was as powerful as the heavens?

Almost overnight.

By the time Lu Yuan reappeared in front of the townspeople, their gazes contained not only closeness but also a touch of awe.

The title of “Lord Lu” spread at this time.

As for Sun Siwen?

After obtaining the Scholar’s Degree, he was now a semi-official figure.

Facing the ruling class, the town residents who had once looked down on him now feared and flattered him, and the shout of “Scholar Sir” became the norm.

“We have reserved your usual seats in the tavern. Would you like the usual?” The waiter led the two to a corner table inside the tavern, wiped it clean, and asked.

This tavern had three specialties. The first was Green Plum Wine, which was a specialty of the town. The second was braised pig’s feet, made with the tavern’s unique recipe and a taste that was absolutely superb. The third was sour plums, a great appetizer.

Whenever the two of them visited, they always ordered these three. 𝙛𝙧𝓮𝓮𝙬𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝓮𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝙢

“Yes,” replied Scholar Sun in a reserved tone.

After passing the scholar examination, Scholar Sun maintained his usual friendly and approachable attitude towards Lu Yuan, but he had a different face when dealing with ordinary townspeople.

Although he did not consider himself above them and saw them as mere ants, he no longer thought of himself as one of the common people.

As Lu Yuan and Sun Siwen were regulars at the tavern and always ordered the same dishes, the tavern had already prepared their meal before they arrived.

A few minutes after ordering, steaming hot pig’s knuckles and sweet and sour plum dishes were served with warmed Green Plum Wine.

It was around 11:30 in the morning, when the lunch rush had just begun but was not yet at its peak.

At this time, there were only two rich men in the tavern besides Lu Yuan, leisurely having a drink.

The chaos caused by the Black Wind Gang had deeply affected the peace and prosperity of the various places in Luling Prefecture. Many business deals and businesses had been halted or dwindled as a result.

So, many wealthy merchants who ran shops and businesses began to pay attention to the decisive battle on Fairy Maiden Ridge.

These days, Lu Yuan had often heard the town’s rich men cursing and condemning Eagle King Fang Tianying in the tavern, hoping for his death at the hands of the Iron Sword Sect leader and removal of this scourge. In a sense, Iron Sword MO Baichuan was now the popular choice, coming with the momentum.

Unfortunately, this kind of verbal support would not affect the outcome of the duel.

The landlords could only curse secretly in the tavern and then, like Lu Yuan, listen obediently to the news brought by passing merchants and travelers, in order to learn the outcome of the battle.

“Yesterday was the 24th, the day of the scheduled battle. By now, the battle on Fairy Maiden Ridge should have a result, and it will soon be known.. I wonder, what could be the outcome of this battle?”
