Chapter 532: Chapter 532: Strike While He’s Down

On the way back to Yuquan Bar, Bei Meiyin said, "My car is on Si Ju Road. Please take me there."

"I’m afraid that’s not possible. You are now my girlfriend. When you go home is up to me!" Liu Zixuan teased with a grin.

"In a month, do I have to be in a hurry this time?" Bei Meiyin retorted, not in the best mood. "My dad keeps a close eye on me. If he finds out I’m with you, there won’t be another month. He’ll keep me locked up at home every day!"

Liu Zixuan raised an eyebrow: "You make it sound like I’m afraid of your dad!"

"You’re not, but I am. He would really keep me locked in the house for six months to a year without letting me step foot outside." Bei Meiyin smiled wryly: "So you should let me go. Anyway, there’s still a month ahead!"

"Alright then." Liu Zixuan pouted helplessly, thankful that it had been extended to a month. Otherwise, with just one day, he would feel a great loss, as if he hadn’t done anything in that day!

Reluctantly, he took Bei Meiyin to Si Ju Road, then drove towards Yuquan Bar.

In Celestial Capital, whatever he does, Liu Zixuan prefers to do it alone. Even when accompanied, it’s usually by Qin Si’s group, so he plans to settle Huzi at Yuquan Bar first. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Upon arriving at Yuquan Bar, Liu Zixuan parked the car.

Smiling, he said, "You’ll be staying here for some time."

"This place is nice, like a palace." Huzi laughed broadly, carrying his bag of money. "City life is different. Back in the welfare home, having three brick rooms would make you a big shot!"

"So your dream is to return and live in a big tile house?" Liu Zixuan teased.

"Not at all. With the money I have, I could live in that village for a lifetime. But one shouldn’t choose comfort during the age of struggle. I want to earn lots of money out here and go back to turn the whole place into such a palace!"

Liu Zixuan gave Huzi a thumbs up: "Great ambition. Work hard, and that day will come!"

"Haha, I’ll stick with Brother Xuan from now on. Don’t worry, I don’t eat as much as Zhao Yi!"

"Hahaha!" Speaking of Zhao Yi, it reminded him of the first time they had a meal with him, where Zhao Yi ate enough for several people.

They laughed and went up to the second floor. Since it was daytime, there weren’t many people around, and Sister An San was playing pool with Luo Xi.

"Back so soon?" Sister An San’s gaze landed on Huzi. "Weren’t you out with a pretty girl? Why’d you bring back a man? Or have our Brother Xuan’s tastes changed?"

"Go away!" Liu Zixuan immediately shot a glance at Sister An San: "This is Huzi. Sister San, find a place for him."

"Your man?" Sister An San asked, suggestively.

"What? My man can’t be in your bar?"

"You’re never serious." Sister An San rolled her eyes at Liu Zixuan, then gestured for a burly man to come over and take Huzi downstairs.

Liu Zixuan cheerfully walked over to Luo Xi: "Weren’t you shopping? Why are you playing pool now?"

"Just came back a little while ago." Luo Xi raised her head, about to speak more, but noticed the strong scent of perfume on Liu Zixuan, immediately showing a jealous expression: "Were you on a date with some beauty?"

Liu Zixuan was momentarily stunned: "With a great beauty like you at home, how could I be on a date with someone else!"

"Then why do you smell like perfume all over?"

"Huzi has this peculiar hobby; he loves wearing perfume!" Liu Zixuan blinked a few times, quickly changing the topic.

"Sister San, did you receive the invitation?"

Sister An San smiled: "The one from Old Master Diwu?"

"Yes."

"Got it." Sister An San nodded slightly: "They say it’s a birthday banquet, but who knows what it really is. Among the top ten influential families, the Diwu Clan is the most low-profile. A grand feast at this time would be strange without reason!"

"Oh? Seems like tomorrow’s banquet won’t be simple!" Liu Zixuan mused, rubbing his chin.

"I suspect something big will happen tomorrow."

Seeing Sister An San’s mysterious smile, Liu Zixuan probed, "Sister San, if you know anything, give us a hint."

"I don’t know much, just speculations and rumors. People say that the old Master Diwu is preparing for Diwu Yuntian to take over his position as he’s getting older."

Sister An San leisurely said from the side: "But if that’s true, once Diwu Yuntian takes over, East and West Cities will really be in chaos!"

"Aren’t they already chaotic now!" Liu Zixuan scoffed.

"This chaos is in the shadows. Everyone tacitly knows that there’s a bit of ambition in Master Qin Si, and they recognize your arrival, Liu Zixuan, but no one’s really torn their facade. Tomorrow will be different."

"How so?" Liu Zixuan asked.

Sister An San looked at Liu Zixuan with a peculiar gaze: "Think about it. Old Master Diwu, being one of the top ten figures, held authority that deterred many people. But if he suddenly steps down and that unknown Diwu Yuntian from Celestial Capital rises, will anyone accept it?"

"Let alone other medium families and powers; even among the top ten figures, there will be dissent. It’s simple, over the years, there have been minor clashes, hoping for one of the families to fade, so they can take its place."

Sister An San paused, then smiled: "What do you think of my Yuquan Bar?"

Liu Zixuan paused, a bit surprised by the sudden mention, and after some thought, said, "Located between East and West Cities, it’s in the best geographical spot and in an area with the highest foot traffic. It’s definitely a prime piece of real estate!"

"Exactly. Each of the top ten figures holds one or more of such prime pieces. If one of them suddenly weakens, what do you think will happen?"

Liu Zixuan realized sharply, "Then everyone would fight for it! During the transition of the Diwu Clan, they’d strike, even if they don’t get the main piece, they can at least get a share."

"That’s what it means to kick them when they’re down!"

Sister An San chuckled: "Of course, all this is just my guess. I don’t know if it will happen tomorrow, but the day when East and West Cities descend into chaos is not far off!"

"Chaos is good!" Liu Zixuan grinned broadly. The more chaotic it is, the more chances he has to seize what’s his. With the approach of the Seven-Star Tomb and the Ghost Gate Needle, even if chaos erupts, it has little to do with Liu Zixuan!

However, Sister An San unhappily muttered, "Chaos, my foot! I just want to peacefully be a beautiful woman!"
