Chapter 299 Zhao Bao's Interest
Chapter 299 Zhao Bao's Interest
Li Zhi sent all the mosquito monsters out and had them stand outside the room, quietly monitoring the movements around them.
These mosquito monsters are tiny but extremely flexible. They disperse silently, hiding in every corner and monitoring to ensure that Li Zhi will not be disturbed by any external factors in his next actions.
Li Zhi closed the door and quietly took out the things he had hidden in his arms.
A drop of diluted heavenly spiritual water and a fire stone containing fire energy.
Li Zhi didn't even look at it, and put the Heavenly Spirit Water aside. Then, he took the Fire Stone from the exquisite box.
As soon as he touched it, a hot breath spread through his palm and spread throughout his body. The temperature seemed to ignite his soul. Feeling the heat in his hand, Li Zhi couldn't help but feel excited.
This is the fiery temper he has been thinking about day and night!
Li Zhi took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. Without any hesitation, he began to absorb and refine the fire energy in the fire stone.
…
Zhao Bao leaned lazily on the back of the chair. His sitting posture was very casual and he didn't have any image at all.
He was like a lazy cat, stretching his body, as if the rules and etiquette of the world had nothing to do with him and could not restrain him.
Beside him, there were three beautiful women.
They all wore light and cool clothes, and the exquisite tailoring perfectly showed off their graceful figures.
One of the women placed her slender fingers gently on Zhao Bao's feet and beat them rhythmically.
Another woman stood behind him, gently massaging his shoulders with her hands, her movements skillful and gentle.
There was also a woman who was holding an exquisite food box. From time to time, she took out some exquisite snacks from it and handed them to Zhao Bao's mouth, her eyes full of flattery and obedience.
Because the three women were dressed very boldly and coolly, with their light or heavy, up or down movements, a hint of spring light could be seen inadvertently, as if it was a unique "scenery" in the room, but this "scenery" was somewhat ambiguous and charming.
However, Hong Fan, who was sitting opposite Zhao Bao, formed a sharp contrast with Zhao Bao.
He sat upright, like a javelin, standing there firmly.
He did not look away, his eyes were always focused on the void in front of him, as if the tempting scene before him did not exist at all, showing an appearance of being very rule-abiding and cautious.
Seeing this, Zhao Bao raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and chuckled softly: "Don't be restrained in front of me. We are old friends, right?"
His voice was somewhat casual, yet revealed an unquestionable sense of closeness, as if there really was an incomparably deep friendship between them.
When Hong Fan heard this, he was instantly flattered. He lowered his head and said respectfully and humbly, "It's all Mr. Bao's kindness. Hong Fan is very grateful."
Zhao Bao waved his hand slightly, with a nonchalant and carefree gesture, and said: "I don't like to play with idiots and losers. You are a capable and smart person, so I will give you a chance and am willing to make friends with you."
Although his words were straightforward, they also revealed a special recognition of Hong Fan.
Hong Fan nodded hurriedly. He knew very well that Zhao Bao must have something to say next and it was not appropriate to say more at this moment. So he sat there quietly, waiting for Zhao Bao to continue speaking.
As expected, Zhao Bao paused for a moment and then continued slowly, "Are you confident in this battle between you and Yeyou Division?"
Hong Fan thought for a moment after hearing this, and then said, "Don't worry, Master Bao. Although the brother I brought this time is a newcomer, he has been through many battles and is quite strong. He is a first-class fighter. With him, I am quite confident about this fight."
Hearing Hong Fan say this, Zhao Bao's handsome eyebrows slightly raised, a hint of interest flashed in his eyes, and he smiled and said: "Is it the white-haired man who followed you today?"
Hong Fan nodded again and introduced him to Zhao Bao seriously, "Yes, this person's name is Li Zhi, and he was originally a disciple of Xiaoyao Mountain."
"Xiaoyao Mountain? Li Zhi?"
Zhao Bao frowned slightly and rubbed his chin gently. He felt that the name seemed familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before, but he couldn't remember the details for a moment.
A maidservant who was serving him nearby saw this and whispered, "It seems like the young master mentioned this person's name a while ago."
Her voice was soft and melodious, like the sound of a yellow oriole singing in a valley.
After hearing what the maid said, Zhao Bao lowered his head and thought for a moment. Then, as if he suddenly remembered something, he slapped his thigh hard, but this time he slapped the thigh of the maid next to him.
The maid frowned in pain but did not dare to complain at all. She just bit her lip and forced herself not to make a sound.
Zhao Bao was unaware of this. His eyes were shining with excitement. He was obviously very interested in Li Zhi's affairs. He couldn't wait to ask, "But is it the Li Zhi who killed his teacher?"
His voice unconsciously rose a few notches.
Hong Fan really didn't expect Zhao Bao to be interested in Li Zhi. He was slightly startled, but since Zhao Bao had already asked him, he naturally didn't dare not answer and quickly said, "That's the man!"
"Okay, okay! I like this kind of ruthless person!"
Zhao Bao burst into laughter as if he had discovered some rare treasure. The laughter echoed in the house, revealing an irrepressible excitement and pleasure.
Zhao Bao glanced at Hong Fan, with a look that showed he could not be refused, and said, "Find a time and bring your new little brother to meet me."
Looking at the excited Zhao Bao, Hong Fan secretly swallowed his saliva, with mixed emotions in his heart. He really didn't expect that Li Zhi could arouse such strong interest in Master Bao.
only...
Hong Fan didn't know whether this was a blessing or a curse for Li Zhi.
Although you can climb up the big tree of Master Bao, you will definitely have wealth and glory in the future.
But Hong Fan also knew that Zhao Bao always acted as he pleased and was unpredictable. If Li Zhi accidentally offended him, the consequences would be disastrous.
Hong Fan opened his mouth and said with a slightly bitter tone: "It is his honor that Master Bao wants to see him. But... I am afraid that he does not know the rules. If he offends you, wouldn't it be bad..."
Zhao Bao waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "Don't worry, I'm not a stickler for details. If he really did something wrong, I wouldn't take it to heart. I just wanted to see this bold and rebellious person."
Since Zhao Bao had said so, Hong Fan naturally had nothing else to say. He knew that once Zhao Bao decided on something and wanted to do it, even the current emperor could not stop him.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been given the title of being so audacious.
Hong Fan was thinking about how to tell Li Zhi about this.
