"Sohee."
Xu Lian called out and walked over.
Hearing the voice, Pei Zhaoxi, who was wiping his sweat, turned around and saw that it was him, his face was surprised.
Xu Lian put down the food box and opened his arms.
Pei Zhaoxi understood it at a glance and guessed that Xu Lian must have seen Chen Xuan chatting with her just now, and felt a little uncomfortable. He wanted to show his intimacy with her in public.
"Husband!"
Pei Zhaoxi shouted without any hesitation, trotted towards Xu Lian, jumped up, and put his arms around Xu Lian's neck.
Xu Lian held her in his arms and turned her around for a few rounds with satisfaction, then he gently put her down, still holding her slender waist, and lowered his head slightly to touch her forehead, "My dear Zhao Xi, do you miss me?"
Under normal circumstances, Pei Zhaoxi would definitely bicker with Xu Lian, but now she knew she needed to show intimacy, so she immediately said, "I want to!"
As expected.
This public display of intimacy immediately attracted the attention of the entire audience.
Everyone's eyes were not on the young couple, but were looking at Chen Xuan strangely. It was no secret that Chen Xuan was pursuing Pei Zhaoxi. Now the man of her family was here, and he looked a bit strong. This was going to be a good show.
Chen Xuan's face darkened. He also realized that this boy wanted to embarrass him in public and deliberately showed his intimacy with Pei Zhaoxi in public.
Of course, he would not admit defeat, so he strode over and stared at the young man, "Are you Zhaoxi's man in the countryside of Luzhu Town?"
"That's right."

Xu Lian looked at him calmly, still holding Pei Zhaoxi tightly, declaring his sovereignty over Pei Zhaoxi.
Pei Zhaoxi was rarely gentle. She snuggled in his arms, made her position clear, and "supported" him, which made him very happy. Since getting married, the little hot pepper has obviously become more mature than before, and her spiciness has become more layered.
Pei Heng looked at it for a while and then stopped, wiping his sweat with a towel. Based on his understanding of Xu Lian, the calmer he appeared on the surface, the angrier he was inside. This Chen Xuan was probably going to get beaten.
As for whether Xu Lian could defeat Chen Xuan, he felt that there should be no problem, because Xu Lian had already been a warrior earlier, and his current strength was even more unpredictable, while Chen Xuan was only a warrior in the Skin Refining Stage.
In addition, he also felt that there was no problem with whether Xu Lian could end the fight after beating Chen Xuan, because Xu Lian was a very calm person and almost never did anything without certainty. Since Xu Lian took the initiative to provoke Chen Xuan, he must be sure of it.
"I have a word of advice for you."
Chen Xuan spoke eloquently, "A person must have self-knowledge to live a long life. You should be content to have found a beauty like Zhao Xi in a remote place like Lvzhu Town. Now Zhao Xi has come to Pingyang County, where there is a wider world. She should be owned by a better and stronger man. You should let her go as soon as possible, lest you lose your life and bring disaster to your parents and family."
Xu Lian smiled, "When you say a better and stronger man, are you referring to yourself?"
Chen Xuan said, "Although I am nothing in Pingyang County, I am definitely better than a man like you who comes from a remote place in Green Bamboo Town, right? I snatched Zhaoxi from you, and I have her for a while. If a better and stronger man notices her in the future, I will let her go. Why not?"
The people in this world have such bizarre ideas... Xu Lian said, "What you said makes some sense, but how do you prove that you are better than me?"

Chen Xuan said, "Isn't this obvious? Pei Heng, the legitimate son of the Pei family, one of the three largest families in Lvzhu Town, has to come to the county town to learn martial arts. Even if you are the legitimate son of the other two families in Lvzhu Town, you are only on par with Pei Heng. Any man from a good family in the county town is better than Pei Heng and the legitimate son of a wealthy country family like you. It's such a simple truth, don't you understand it?"
Pei Heng's face looked a little unhappy. This Chen Xuan had ignored his obstruction and persuasion and insisted on getting close to Zhao Xi. Now he even said these words in public, which was obviously a contempt for him, the son of a wealthy country family.
"Brother-in-law, this Chen Xuan actually runs a small underground gambling house at home, and he doesn't have any background or power."
Pei Heng directly revealed Chen Xuan's background to Xu Lian.
It doesn’t matter whether Xu Lian knows it or not.
So what if Chen Xuan is the legitimate son of a wealthy family
So what even if Chen Xuan is the son of the garrison commander
Besides, he had already guessed that people with real background would never practice in such a martial arts school.
"You run a small gambling house at home, and you've cheated a lot of civilians, right
Did it make you feel superior
Do you think you are better than the average man?"
Xu Lian slowly raised his hand and stroked Pei Zhaoxi's long hair in his arms, just like his own cat. Pei Zhaoxi did give him face at such a moment, and just rolled her eyes at him quietly, but was unspeakably docile and did not move.
Chen Xuan said coldly, "Stop talking nonsense to me. Come on, let's show you the real deal."
Xu Lian still held Pei Zhaoxi with one hand, and from time to time lowered his head to touch Pei Zhaoxi's forehead to show intimacy, "I am already standing here, you can do it at any time."
Seeing that he didn't take him seriously, Chen Xuan became angry and clenched his fists.
Just when he was about to make a move, a middle-aged martial artist walked over.
He first glanced at Xu Lian who was holding Pei Zhaoxi, and frowned and said to Chen Xuan, "This is a place to practice martial arts, not a place for you to snatch women. I don't care what you do outside, but it's absolutely not allowed here. If you snatch someone's wife who was sent to the martial arts hall to practice martial arts, who would dare to send their women to the martial arts hall to practice martial arts in the future? How can the martial arts hall continue to operate?"
Unexpectedly, this martial arts school still has some principles. Xu Lian said to Chen Xuan, "Since it is not convenient to fight here, let's go outside."
The middle-aged martial artist was stunned for a moment. He came over to persuade the young man just to help him out, but he didn't expect that the young man didn't appreciate his kindness. He shook his head slightly and said nothing more. He would go outside and he would not care whether the fight was life or death.
then.
Xu Lian took Pei Zhaoxi's hand and went outside.
Of course Chen Xuan followed out.
The students were eager to watch the fun and all swarmed out.
The martial artists couldn't stop them, so they had no choice but to come out and watch the fight, and also to test the results of the martial arts they taught.
"call!"
Chen Xuan threw a punch.
This punch was so powerful that it created a gust of wind!
Then... Chen Xuan took off.
His fist and entire arm exploded, a deep palm print was left on his chest, blood spurted out of his mouth, and his whole body flew far away like a kite, and fell heavily across the street.
Killed!
Looking at Xu Lian's slightly raised hand and the energy in his hand that was jumping like a white flame, everyone in the audience's pupils shrank and their faces and bodies froze.
Eight words emerged in everyone’s mind: release of energy and high-level Ming Jin!
After Chen Xuan's skin refining stage, he still needs to go through the tendon refining stage, bone refining stage, marrow refining stage, the first level of Ming Jin stage, the second level of Ming Jin stage... He is at least ten levels away from reaching the high level of Ming Jin.
This is not a duel at all, it's just looking for death!
Even Pei Zhaoxi and Pei Heng, who were familiar with Xu Lian, were shocked. This was the first time they truly knew Xu Lian's strength, which had reached such a level.
"Zhao Xi, come with me and solve this matter once and for all, so as to avoid any troubles later."
Xu Lian jumped onto the horse and extended his hand to Pei Zhaoxi.
Pei Zhaoxi took his hand without hesitation, climbed onto the horse and sat behind him.
Xu Lian casually grabbed Chen Xuan's body from across the street and lifted it up with one hand. He turned around and asked Pei Zhaoxi, "Where is the underground gambling house? Do you know?"
Pei Zhaoxi hugged him and chuckled, "This Chen Xuan once boasted that it was in the dark alley under the maple tree at the intersection two blocks ahead."
Xu Lian held the reins in one hand and the corpse in the other, and galloped on his horse straight towards the maple tree.
When people on the street saw this scene, they were all frightened and made way.
The people standing in front of the martial arts hall gate, staring in amazement, were all horrified. This young man looked kind, but they didn't expect him to be so brutal and ruthless, killing people in the street and even destroying their nest.
