Dawa’s status in the Dark Hall should indeed be very high. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to buy such a big courtyard. Almost everyone in the group had a room that they could completely stay in. Shadow Six and Shadow Thirteen’s two rooms were in the west wing. The east wing was given to Yu Shaoqing, Grandma, and Old Cui. Mu Qing had to take care of his junior brother, so he and Zhou Jin’s room was also in the west wing.
There were a total of three rooms in the west wing, and they were all occupied. However, there was another empty room in the south wing, and Zhou Yuyan carried her luggage in.
After the group packed their things, it was almost evening. Dawa had gone to the Dark Hall to report. The news of him bringing a Heaven Realm Great
Sorcerer back to the black market could not be hidden from the Dark Hall.
According to the agreed plan, he would tell the Dark Hall that he had found Zhou Jin and his fellow disciples. He had brought everyone over.
“Let’s go out and take a walk too,” Yu Wan said to Yan Jiuchao.
“Can you still walk?” Yan Jiuchao looked at her stomach and asked. She was now six months pregnant.
Yu Wan nodded. “I can walk. Besides, didn’t Old Cui say that I have to walk more so that it’ll be easier to give birth in the future?”
Yan Jiuchao looked at her round stomach. There were only three months left before the little fellow came to the world.
“Are you going or not?” Yu Wan tugged at his sleeve.
“Okay,” Yan Jiuchao replied and held her hand as they left the courtyard.
Shadow Thirteen and Shadow Six followed.
Yu Shaoqing stayed at home in case someone had ill intentions when they were not paying attention. Didn’t Dawa say so? The sorcerers were very dangerous in the black market and could be robbed at any time.
Yu Wan left Little Gu behind.
“Do you want to take a carriage?” Yan Jiuchao asked.
Yu Wan shook her head. “No need. Let’s take a walk.”
Dawa’s residence was not far from the prosperous street market. It was not easy for them to come to the black market, so they had to experience the local customs of the black market.
The four of them left the courtyard.
Suddenly, a figure caught up. “Wait for me! I’ll go too!”
Yan Jiuchao walked forward expressionlessly, but Yu Wan turned around and said in shock, “Oh? Miss Zhou? Are you going out too?”
Zhou Yuyan cleared her throat. “I… I also want to take a walk on the streets!”
Yu Wan raised her eyebrows and said, “Aren’t you going to guard your little junior brother anymore?” This girl wished she could tie her junior brother to her body all day and not leave at all!
Zhou Yuyan glanced at Shadow Six and said, “My junior brother doesn’t have enough clothes to wear. I want to buy him a few sets of clothes.”
Yu Wan nodded and did not suspect anything. She turned around and continued to walk hand in hand with Yan Jiuchao.
Zhou Yuyan quietly walked to Shadow Six’s side and whispered, “Shadow Six!” “Huh?” Shadow Six turned to look at her. “What’s wrong, Miss Zhou?” “Is that good?” Zhou Yuyan pointed to a stall selling head flowers in front.
Shadow Six looked around and said, “It looks good.”
Zhou Yuyan’s eyes sparkled. “Then accompany me to choose it!”
“Huh?” Shadow Six was stunned. Before he could come back to his senses, Zhou Yuyan grabbed his sleeve and pulled him to the stall.
Shadow Thirteen was alone. He looked at Shadow Six, who was pulled away, and frowned.
“Is this better or this?” Zhou Yuyan picked up a purple and a pink head flower respectively.
Women in the black market liked to wear head flowers. There were real and fake ones. Compared to the plain and elegant women of the Central Plains, they were more bright and beautiful.
Zhou Yuyan was holding a velvet flower made of silk. The quality was not too good, but she was young and beautiful. No matter how cheap it was, it had a different kind of spirituality when it came to her.
“They’re both good-looking,” Shadow Six said.
“Then I’ll take them all!” Zhou Yuyan bought two head flowers.
“Hey, look.” Yu Wan gently shook her hand that was holding Yan Jiuchao’s, indicating for him to look at Shadow Six, who was being dragged around the street by Zhou Yuyan.
Women were always especially gossipy about such things, but men seemed much colder. It was better to look at her than Yan Jiuchao looking at other women.
Yu Wan asked mysteriously, “How old is Shadow Six?”
“Almost nineteen,” Yan Jiuchao said. “Shadow Thirteen is twenty-one.”
Yu Wan smiled in satisfaction. “That’s not young either. We can talk about marriage now. This Miss Zhou is a little arrogant, but her character is not bad. If she’s really a couple with Shadow Six, it’ll be a good thing. You won’t have any objections, right?”
Yan Jiuchao snorted. “Am I the one with an opinion?”
“Huh?” Yu Wan raised her eyebrows. What did he mean?
“This, this!” Zhou Yuyan had already bought a large pile. Shadow Six couldn’t lift his hand anymore, but she pulled him to a small stall.
Shadow Six said, “What else do you need?” Zhou Yuyan said, “It’s not for me, it’s for you!”
“For me?” Shadow Six was surprised.
“Yes!” Zhou Yuyan picked up a dagger’s leather sheath. “I saw that your leather sheath was scratched. It’s time to change it.” Shadow Six touched the dagger at his waist.
“Bring it over and try it,” Zhou Yuyan said.
Shadow Six took out the dagger and tried it. “I want two!” Shadow Six gave the money himself.
“What do you like to eat?” Zhou Yuyan asked.
“I like them all.” Shadow Six was not picky about his diet. The picky one was Young Master. He and Shadow Thirteen could eat anything.
“What’s your favorite?” Zhou Yuyan asked.
“Hmm…” Shadow Six thought for a while.” Date cake.”
“Date cake…” Zhou Yuyan murmured and nodded in enlightenment.
After shopping for a while, Yu Wan was tired and the group returned home.
Zhou Yuyan happily went to the kitchen, while Shadow Six went to Shadow Thirteen’s room.
“Thirteen!” He walked towards Shadow Thirteen excitedly. Shadow Thirteen turned around to wipe his dagger and ignored him. Shadow Six was insensitive and did not notice Shadow Thirteen’s coldness. He took out a leather sheath and handed it to him. “For you!”
Shadow Thirteen also had a dagger. He had chosen them from Prince Yan Manor’s armory back then. His leather sheath was worn, so Shadow Thirteen’s should be old.
Shadow Thirteen didn’t reach out to take it. “Use it yourself.”
“How can I use two?” Shadow Six said as he took Shadow Thirteen’s dagger and naturally put it on. “It’s indeed very suitable.”
Shadow Six looked at Shadow Thirteen’s brand new dagger over and over again like a child who had obtained a treasure. His cherished expression was about to overflow from his eyes.
Shadow Six was young and was considered tall among men. Back then, he had tanned a little when he was tricked by Grandma to carry out a mission. Now, he had become fair again. He had a hint of baby fat that had yet to fade. His lips were red and his teeth were white. His eyes were bright and charming. Coupled with his serious expression, he was undoubtedly a treasure-like young man.
Shadow Thirteen was staring fixedly when Zhou Yuyan’s voice suddenly came from the courtyard. “Shadow Six! Shadow Six!”
“Oh, Miss Zhou is calling me.” Shadow Six put the leather dagger back into Shadow Thirteen’s arms and walked out.
Looking at Shadow Six’s departing figure, Shadow Thirteen gripped the dagger in his hand tightly and his face darkened.
“I made a date cake. Try it!” Zhou Yuyan b.u.mped into Shadow Six in the courtyard.
Shadow Six opened his mouth. “Ah… Why did you make date cake so quickly?” “Don’t you like it?” Zhou Yuyan smiled.
“Actually…” Shadow Six scratched his head embarra.s.sedly. It wasn’t that he liked it, but Shadow Thirteen did. Just now, when Zhou Yuyan kept asking him, he really couldn’t remember what he liked to eat. He thought that Shadow Thirteen liked to eat date cake and said something random.
“Try it! I’ve been making date paste for a long time! Look, my hand is red!” Zhou Yuyan said as she opened her red right palm for him to see. Shadow Six was quite ashamed. Zhou Yuyan placed the plate in his hand. “Alright, take it and eat. There’s another plate. I’ll send it to Junior Brother and Sister Wan!”
“Oh.” Shadow Six held the plate and thought for a while, but he did not return to his room. Instead, he went to Shadow Thirteen.
“Do you want the date cake?” He handed the plate to Shadow Thirteen and said.
“No.” Shadow Thirteen coldly put away his dagger and sword and walked out of the door.
“Where are you going so late at night?” Shadow Six asked.
“Investigate the terrain of the black market,” Shadow Thirteen said expressionlessly
“Then wait! I’ll go with you!” Shadow Six put down the date cake, returned to his room to get his sword, and left the courtyard with him.
However, it was unknown if it was Shadow Six’s imagination, but Shadow Thirteen was walking so quickly today. He would not be able to keep up!
“Thirteen, wait for me!” Not only was Shadow Six’s martial arts inferior to Shadow Thirteen, but his qinggong was also not his match, okay? Especially after Shadow Thirteen was injured once in the Nether Mountain, his strength had increased explosively. Even the Asura King was not his match.
Shadow Thirteen did not wait for him and walked forward with a cold expression.
Shadow Six was sweating from chasing. It was also because he was unlucky today. When he crossed an alley, he encountered two forces from the black market fighting for a sorcerer. The two sides were fighting fiercely. Shadow Six unintentionally got involved and was about to take a detour to avoid it, but the weapon did not have eyes. A poisonous dart accidentally shot at Shadow Six.
When Shadow Six discovered it, it was already too late. He could not dodge.
At the critical moment, Shadow Thirteen flew over and turned around while hugging Shadow Six’s thin waist. They both fell to the ground. After rolling a few times, Shadow Thirteen pressed down on Shadow Six..
