Beauty's Evil Bodyguard

The duel between Xue Chen and Bai Poju had already caused a huge commotion in the capital. The entire Four Nine Cities were discussing this matter.    

    

Qin Shou had even specially opened a manor in the Hundred Flowers Lane to bet on who would lose and who would win.    

    

However, the ratio was very low. Most of them did not think Xue Chen would win. As a result, Xue Chen's ratio was 1: 10.    

    

For this reason, after Jiang Ehuang found out about this matter, she deliberately fought with Qin Shou and almost fell out with him.    

    

But since the manor had already been opened, she naturally had to continue. Otherwise, how could Qin Shou establish himself in the Four Nine Cities? Hence, there were many people who came to suppress him.    

    

Xue Chen and Bai Poju were going all out, while the others were going all out for money. They were having a lot of fun.    

    

It was not an exaggeration to say that the manor that Qin Shou opened made almost half of the top officials and dignitaries in the capital come to suppress him.    

    

However, Qin Shou was in a tough spot.    

    

This was all because of Xue Chen's loss. If Xue Chen lost, he would lose his life even if he lost money.    

    

This gave Qin Shou the urge to smash his head against a wall. He could only pray in his heart that Xue Chen wouldn't lose.    

    

However, at the same time that Qin Shou opened the manor, everyone began to discuss whether Xue Chen would come as promised.    

    

If Xue Chen did not come, how was the ranking to be determined?    

    

Just as everyone was discussing intensely whether Xue Chen would come, a piece of news instantly swept across the entire capital at a terrifying speed.    

    

Xue Chen had come!    

    

When this news spread, the entire capital immediately exploded into an uproar.    

    

Xue Chen had finally come. There would definitely be a good show tonight.    

    

The news of Xue Chen's arrival immediately reached Bai Poju's ears. Bai Poju was not surprised at all. He appeared very calm.    

    

Bai Poju didn't go to see Xue Chen or go out. Instead, he locked himself in his house. It was his own house. It had nothing to do with Bai Guiqi and Bai Family.    

    

After Bai Guiqi heard the news of Xue Chen's arrival, he immediately came to Bai Poju's house. However, Bai Poju still did not like to see Bai Guiqi.    

    

"How confident are you in breaking through?" Bai Guiqi looked at Bai Poju with a serious expression and asked.    

    

"Does it have anything to do with you?"    

    

"Break the situation. I know you hate me, but this is not a child's play. Xue Chen is not simple..."    

    

"You are talking nonsense. If he is simple, he will not be Martial God's nephew, nor will he be Eternal Night Great Emperor."    

    

"I'm afraid of you..."    

    

Bai Poju seemed to have guessed what Bai Guiqi was going to say and interrupted him. "You are not afraid that something will happen to me, nor are you worried about me."    

    

"You're afraid that I won't be able to kill Xue Chen, or that the Bai Family will be slapped again if I die. You won't have a place to hide your old face, will you?"    

    

Seeing Bai Poju expose his thoughts, Bai Guiqi didn't feel awkward at all.    

    

"Break the situation. You will definitely be able to deal with him. Right? " Bai Guiqi asked nervously, "This is a martial arts competition, and it will not end until one of us dies. Even Martial God cannot interfere easily."    

    

"This is an opportunity. Right? Bai Poju sneered.    

    

"Yes!"    

    

"Xue Chen is very strong. I don't have any confidence, so please go back..."    

    

"You..."    

    

"You... I have nothing to do with fighting Xue Chen. I just want to take revenge for my nephew and brother." Bai Poju said calmly, "So don't count on me. Even if I can kill Xue Chen, I will help you get the Qin Imperial Seal from him."    

    

"I may take the Qin Imperial Seal, but don't worry, I will never give it to you." Bai Poju looked at Bai Guiqi and said, "I will throw it into the sea or the Yellow River, or into the Huangpu River."    

    

Bai Guiqi's face turned extremely gloomy. Bai Poju was going to fight him to the end.    

    

"You..."    

    

"Please leave my place. I don't welcome you here."    

    

"Bai Poju..."    

    

Bai Guiqi said, shaking his head. "Bai Guiqi, I want you to leave this place." Bai Poju's face suddenly turned cold. "Don't let me say it again!"    

    

"Good, good, very good!" Bai Guiqi's breathing became rapid. "Your wings are hard now. I can't control you anymore..."    

    

"Leave!" Bai Poju's voice suddenly changed. It was filled with killing intent.    

    

"Alright, I will leave. But remember, no matter what you want to do, my blood flows through your body. You are destined to be a member of the Bai Family. You will die as well!"    

    

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Guiqi waved his hand and left the place in anger.    

    

...    

    

After Xue Chen arrived in the capital, he didn't go to the Jiang Family, Shen Baichuan, or anyone else. Instead, he found a hotel to rest and adjust his state of mind.    

    

The battle between him and Bai Poju was inevitable. There was no turning back. If two tigers fought each other, one of them would be injured. If it wasn't Bai Poju, then it would be Xue Chen!    

    

Not long after Xue Chen entered the hotel, Jiang Zhanyi heard the wind and came over.    

    

When he saw Jiang Zhanyi, a smile slowly appeared on Xue Chen's face. "Old master, take a seat!"    

    

Jiang Zhanyi looked at Xue Chen with worry and uneasiness. "Xue Chen, you... you really want to fight Bai Poju?"    

    

"Yes, we can't hide from him. Why don't we fight him to the death?" Xue Chen poured Jiang Zhanyi a cup of tea and said softly.    

    

"Bai Poju is not as simple as you think. Although you fought with Bai Poju, he definitely did not fight with all his might. This time..."    

    

"I did not go all out either. I did not go all out!" Xue Chen said plainly.    

    

"You shouldn't have come." Jiang Zhanyi sighed heavily. "Why do you have to be a hero?"    

    

"Men do things and do not do things. Since I promised Bai Poju, "Then I will certainly compete with him. Whether I win or lose this duel, I will have a clear conscience!"    

    

Hearing Xue Chen say so, Jiang Zhanyi's wrinkled face was filled with bitterness. "Child, why do you need to..."    

    

"There are some things that you can't avoid. What should come will come sooner or later. Even if you can avoid it now, you still have to face it in the future. Anyway, you have to face it. Why should I shrink back?"    

    

"Moreover, it's not certain who will win or lose!"    

    

"Initially, I wanted to advise you to leave the capital, but now it seems that you have made up your mind. You must fight with Bai Poju!"    

    

"It must be done!"    

    

In that case, I will not say anything more. Grandpa only has one request. Live. Grandpa will wait for you at home. I will cook chicken soup for you. I promise Grandpa that I will come back alive... "    

    

Xue Chen smiled. "I will try my best."    

    

"I will not disturb you much. Rest well. Remember, you must live."    

    

Jiang Zhanyi stood up and prepared to leave.    

    

Xue Chen felt his heart ache as he looked at Jiang Zhanyi's desolate back. He could not help but shout, "Grandpa..."    

    

After hearing the word 'grandfather', Jiang Zhanyi's old body suddenly trembled as if he had encountered an electric current.    

    

He had been waiting for this word for a long time, but he never thought that Xue Chen would shout it out at this time. For a moment, Jiang Zhanyi's cloudy eyes turned slightly red.    

    

"The weather is cold. Put on more clothes. Don't freeze!"    

    

Jiang Zhanyi took a deep breath and did not say anything. He walked outside.    

    

Looking at Jiang Zhanyi's slowly disappearing back, Xue Chen let out a breath of sulk.    

    

Perhaps it was because they had agreed that Jiang Ehuang would come after Jiang Zhanyi left.    

    

"Brother, you... you really want to go to the appointment..." Jiang Ehuang's face carried a trace of pain.    

    

Xue Chen killed Bai Di. Her heart was in a mess. Xue Chen was her half-brother and Bai Di was her cousin. No matter who lived or died, it was a heavy blow to her.    

    

Now that Bai Di was dead, Bai Poju was going to fight Xue Chen to the death!    

    

"Yes!" Xue Chen nodded. "I promised him."    

    

"Brother... can you not go?"    

    

"No!" Xue Chen shook his head and said, "Ehuang, I killed Bai Di. Don't you hate me?"    

    

"I don't know, I don't know!" Jiang Ehuang looked at Xue Chen with tears in her eyes and said, "You are my brother and Bai Di is my cousin. I don't want you to die!"    

    

"But I know I can't stop it. I don't know what to do..."    

    

"Alright, don't be like this. Go back and have a good rest!"    

    

"Brother, if you really want to go..."    

    

"I have to go!"    

    

Hearing Xue Chen's resolute tone, the bitterness on Jiang Ehuang's face became even more intense.    

    

"Go back. Don't stay here with me. Let me be quiet for a while. I still have to go out later."    

    

Jiang Ehuang left in a daze. However, she did not go home. Instead, she went to find Bai Poju.    

    

"Uncle... Uncle..." Jiang Ehuang immediately shouted wildly when she arrived at Bai Poju's door.    

    

After hearing Jiang Ehuang's voice in the courtyard, Bai Poju could not help but reveal a bitter expression. "What should come is still coming!"    

    

Bai Poju knew very well the purpose of Jiang Ehuang coming to him. He did not want to see her, but he had to see her.    

    

This was his niece!    

    

"Ehuang, why are you crying? Who provoked you? Tell uncle that I will help you beat him up!" Bai Poju looked at Jiang Ehuang a little dotingly. At the same time, he reached out his hand and carefully wiped away the tears on Jiang Ehuang's face.    

    

"Uncle, Ehuang, please, please don't fight with my brother, okay? I beg you..."    

    

As she spoke, Jiang Ehuang knelt on the ground with a thud. Her eyes were filled with tears as she looked at Bai Poju with a pleading expression.    

    

Looking at Jiang Ehuang's appearance, Bai Poju felt uncomfortable. When he was in Qin City Prison, other than Bai Di who would visit him, so many juniors were Jiang Ehuang.    

    

Bai Poju, who had no children, regarded Bai Di and Jiang Ehuang as his own children.    

    

Now that he saw Jiang Ehuang kneeling in front of him, how could he feel good?    

    

"Ehuang, get up first!"    

    

"Uncle, I beg you to promise me, promise me that I have already lost my cousin and don't lose my brother anymore. Don't fight with him okay, okay..."
