They said they were going to Jianhu, but the two of them were slow to leave the city.
Two little pigs walked leisurely on the main street of the city, looking curiously at the stalls and shops on both sides. Although they were considered knowledgeable, they felt a sense of novelty at this moment.
Zhao Changhe had never really strolled through the streets in this world, whether it was in Qinghe or Suyang. When he was in Gusu, he chose to stroll around the streets and lakes.
As for Rosefinch, she hadn't gone shopping like a little girl for many years... When Rosefinch wore her mask, a terrifying aura filled the street, making it silent. It was impossible to go shopping.
Not to mention her true identity, it was difficult to go shopping.
But now... People's gazes fell on their faces, no longer filled with fear, but with kind smiles.
This feeling was strange... It felt both relaxed and embarrassed. They were already grown-ups, yet they were wearing pig masks, and it seemed like they were misunderstood to be a couple with the pig next to them. The kind smiles made them feel uncomfortable.
But then they thought, no one knows who I am when I wear the mask, so why feel embarrassed?
So all that was left was a sense of relaxation and novelty.
Jianhu City is quite prosperous, although it can't compare to the capital, it has its own characteristics. For example, the pancakes sold over there seem to be different from what they have seen in the capital. They are thick like buns and smell delicious.
"Hey." Rosefinch nudged Zhao Changhe with her elbow. "We haven't had breakfast. We've been on the road since early morning, and it's almost noon now. Let me tell you, it's not good for cultivating martial arts without having breakfast..."
"Are you craving for those pancakes?"
"No, I'm warning you..."
Zhao Changhe had already rushed to the pancake stall. "Give me two."
Rosefinch leisurely walked over. "I didn't say I wanted to eat this. It was your choice."
"Then just one?"
Before the words fell, the pancake that was already in his hand was suddenly snatched away.
Turning his head, he saw a pig's head snorting. "Why do you get to eat and I don't? Confiscated."
Zhao Changhe: "..."
The pig's head lifted a bit, not minding the hot temperature, and took a bite of the pancake before quickly covering it again.
Zhao Changhe shook his head and laughed, then turned around and threw a piece of broken silver, and took another piece of pancake to eat while walking.
Rosefinch casually said, "Why did I hear people say that you ran out of money after leaving the south, but now you're staying in hotels and buying things, and it seems like you have an endless amount of money. Where did the money come from?"
Zhao Changhe wondered, "How did you become so well-informed? If I don't have money, I can only blame Xuan Chong."
"That was the boat of the Cao Gang, and there were plenty of our people on the boat."
"...Alright. You guys really know everything about me."
"Not clear enough. For example, I don't know where you got the money now. Did Cui Yuanyang give you money again?"
"It was given by your Saintess."
"..." Rosefinch suddenly felt that the pancake in her hand wasn't delicious anymore.
Little brat, using the money of the Holy Sect to support a man!
"Just kidding, hahaha." Zhao Changhe laughed. "I lost the silver ticket, but I still have some broken silver. I had it in the first place, but there's not much left. I need to find a way to make money."
"If you make this kind of joke again, I'll beat you up."
"You called me big brother yesterday, and today you're calling for my death. Oh, by the way, how does your Holy Sect make money? Do you recruit disciples and collect offerings?"
"We have our own industries, and many of them are not shady industries, but legitimate ones. It's just that no one knows that the people in charge are ours." Rosefinch leisurely nibbled on the pancake. "The strength of the Holy Sect is not something you can casually ask about. You can't imagine the power behind the scenes... How about joining the sect? I can give you a good position. In the future, you can enjoy all the good things and have no problem with martial arts. We can mobilize everyone to help you with any meridian problems. It's much more comfortable to have a good sect backing you than to struggle alone."
"Just give me some time."
"Forget it. We're not the Maitreya Sect, we don't use beauty to seduce people." Rosefinch sneered. "You don't need to look at me like that, I know what you're thinking. The Elder wants me to follow you to understand, not to give you to me. Get rid of that thought, it's disgusting."
Zhao Changhe couldn't help but laugh and cry. "I didn't say anything, you're just imagining things. You thought of it yourself, right?"
"I just know that you would think that way!"
"Yes, yes, yes." Zhao Changhe couldn't argue. He did have this misunderstanding. Otherwise, why would Rosefinch ask him to come? It was obviously a clear invitation.
So that's why there were teasing actions before.
But thinking about it carefully, it seemed to make sense. The Four Elephant Sect didn't use seduction, even though they were called a demonic sect. In fact, they were all very proud.
It was a good thing. At least he didn't have to worry about being sent on such a mission. This Miss Yihuo She was also quite good. She wouldn't be randomly sent to seduce men.Speaking of which, since I've already teased her, it's not like I'm going to pretend to be a gentleman now and tell her to stop calling me 'good brother', right?
Zhao Changhe didn't bother to dwell on this, and laughed, "Why are you so eager to persuade me to join your sect? Your elder is still studying my star sign, what if it turns out to be unsuitable?"
Rosefinch thought to herself that she wanted to recruit him now not because of his star sign... Well, she couldn't say that out loud, so she could only ask, "What will you do when you run out of money while wandering alone in the world? Will you resort to robbery?"
Before she could finish her words, someone suddenly blocked their way, "These two little pigs seem to be quite rich, using silver pieces to buy pancakes. How much more do you have? Hand it all over."
Zhao Changhe: "......"
Rosefinch: "......"
Seeing the two of them looking dumbfounded, the robber, who was clearly there to rob them, almost died laughing, "You two young lovers came to Sword Lake City to date, didn't your elders tell you that Sword Lake City is a very chaotic place?"
It seemed like the two of them had just realized what was happening, and they both felt a sense of disbelief.
We're actually being robbed by the city's gang... Oh right, we've heard that Sword Lake City is a mixed bag, very chaotic. We've never experienced it before, and we didn't expect our first experience to be like this.
Although he was wearing a pig head mask, the dragon and finch on Zhao Changhe's back were still there. Could it be that because there were more people dressed like this, it no longer had any deterrent effect?
Zhao Changhe felt the young lady next to him become silent. The cheerful mood that could be felt even through the mask suddenly became murderous, and the killing intent in her eyes could almost freeze a person's soul.

This is a young lady who has reached the ninth level of Xuan Guan!
Zhao Changhe silently pulled her back, stepping in between her and the robber.
"Oh? You really think you're Zhao Changhe just because you're carrying a broadsword on your back." The other party burst into laughter, "You're actually playing the hero saving the beauty in front of so many of us, hahaha......"
The laughter was abruptly cut off in his throat.
The robust male pig head figure with a broadsword on his back suddenly moved, with a graceful movement that should not belong to his appearance, he instantly appeared in front of the leader, grabbing his neck with one hand.
The man tried to resist, but only managed to catch a residual image of the hand. His neck tightened, and he was lifted up, "Perfect timing, hand over your money. I haven't done this for a long time, it's a good opportunity for me to reminisce."
The murderous aura from Rosefinch disappeared without a trace, and she burst out laughing.
This guy is really fun.
More and more people are starting to see Zhao Changhe as a righteous hero, but they forget his roots. He was originally a bandit, and he wouldn't hesitate to rob in return.
The man's face turned purple from being choked, and he couldn't even speak. The group of followers around him drew their swords and surrounded Zhao Changhe, shouting nervously, "Where did this dragon come from? We are under the command of Lord Sha Qi from Kang Le Casino, think carefully!"
"Never heard of him." Zhao Changhe stretched out his left hand and lifted another man who was speaking, as if the sword in his hand didn't exist.
Then he smashed the two men he was holding together, and they both fainted on the spot.
Zhao Changhe rubbed his fists and continued to approach the other gang members.
People were witnessing a pig demon wreaking havoc, and they all shouted, "Have you thought it through? Even Han Wubing was forced to flee in panic here, who do you think you are, daring to run wild in Sword Lake City?"
Zhao Changhe was taken aback, his eyes instantly sharp.
Interesting... I didn't expect that what seemed to be a common bullying incident could actually involve Han Wubing!
Han Wubing has already left... and he actually fled!
I thought there was nothing special about this place except for the Ice Soul at the bottom of the Ancient Sword Lake. The so-called "chaos" of Sword Lake City, who had the mind to experience these things at first? After finishing the business, I left in a hurry. Now that I'm back, I've unexpectedly stumbled upon something quite remarkable.
