Immortality from Taming Elephant-Chapter 86 - 84: Elephant Master!

"My second brother is becoming more and more like my father."

Zhu Zhenzhen spoke the last sentence and fell into silence.

Xu Guang just walked silently beside her.

Everyone has their own growth story, their own code of conduct, and their own things they reject.

Actually, Xu Guang heard the first words Zhenzhen said, but he didn’t want to respond; Zhenzhen was not his type.

As for Zhu Cheng’s changes, he noticed them too. The head of a big family is destined to sacrifice personal feelings.

In this regard, Zhu Cheng did very well.

But ultimately, he changed.

Before leaving, Zhu Zhenzhen suddenly became brave and spoke.

"Before my dad died, he wanted us to get married. Do you think if I had agreed, would you have agreed?"

Xu Guang shook his head expressionlessly.

"Why?"

Xu Guang took a good look at Zhu Zhenzhen and said softly.

"I don’t like women with small breasts. It would starve the children."

Zhu Zhenzhen was at a loss for words.

"You are really shallow."

This matter seemed to end there.

"Regarding the Pill Tower, I plan to move out from the Zhu Family and focus on the Pill Tower from now on."

This was probably the real reason for Zhenzhen’s visit.

So Xu Guang nodded, "Alright."

...

This was just an interlude.

In fact, Zhu Zhenzhen was indeed a very good candidate. Xu Guang had too few loyal people under him, and even fewer who were capable and loyal. The Pill Tower was highly profitable, and Xu Guang naturally didn’t want to entrust it to someone he couldn’t trust.

Zhu Zhenzhen had already reached the Eighth Grade; in terms of capability and character, Xu Guang trusted her.

After Xu Guang visited a few times, he completely hid himself away.

The Pill Tower no longer needed the title of Master Xu.

The Pill Tower was bustling with activity, the city ever-changing like the winds and clouds.

The immense profits from the Pill Tower would eventually attract many people’s attention.

Lately, with more and more outsiders flooding into Qingshuo County, the so-called formidable newcomers were countless.

Xu Guang lived a secluded life, and since General Wei was now not fond of moving around, his presence in the city became increasingly low.

At this moment, in a small courtyard, a hulking man in dark gray clothing was standing there. As he moved, his body revealed dense hair, marking him as a man with some Barbarian Race blood.

He was over two meters tall, with a shallow scar on his face that lent him a somewhat fierce air.

His name was Wu Teng, formerly a bandit, a pure Green Forest person. However, with the chaos outside, he developed a thought of reform and brought some loyal experts under him to Qingshuo County, obtaining the position of a Dharma Protector of the Iron Armor Sect.

Beside him was also an expert, who came from Mingjiang Prefecture, a notorious flower thief there.

Wu Teng originally looked down on such people, but this man named Pan Peak was extremely skilled in the Lightweight Skill and managed to escape to this place during a hunt at Jiufeng Mountain.

Both were from the Underworld and knew each other’s backgrounds well, thus huddling together close in Qingshuo County.

"Brother Wu, this Tie Kuang is no easy character. Why do you think he gave us the Dharma Protector title?"

Wu Teng, with his grassroots background and little education, looked at Pan Peak.

"Perhaps he wants us to do some deadly jobs. Do you think we brothers can do it?"

"What do you mean?" Wu Teng frowned and asked.

"Qingshuo County now has many rich families gathering, why not... do a big heist and leave?"

"Oh?"

Wu Teng was intrigued. Robbery was part of his daily life; though Qingshuo County was peaceful, it ultimately lacked excitement.
