Yang Zhi stood by the side of the table and looked at the old man with a cold gaze, then looked at Zhou Wen's serious face, he pulled open his chair and sat down, only to realize that there was another cup of coffee on the table in front of him.

The old man was dressed in a clean black suit and wore a hat of the same color. His two temples were white, he glanced at the pale white beard, and his skinny face was still as handsome as when he was young. This old man was like a gentleman, he placed the menu on the table, pushed it in front of Yang Zhi and asked Yang Zhi with a smile, "Mr. Yang, do you want to eat something?"

"Thank you, I've already eaten."

Yang Zhi did not know what he meant and refused.

The old man wasn't angry. He placed the menu on the table, stirred the coffee with a spoon, and said with a smile, "Mr. Yang, no need to be so nervous. I'm not from the south, so I don't have any bad intentions towards you."

The corner of Yang Zhi's eyes twitched as he calmly replied, "Looks like old mister knows me very well."

"With Mr. Yang's current international reputation, getting some information is very easy. All you need to do is spend a little bit of money."

As he spoke, the old man smiled and stretched out his right hand. His index finger and thumb moved back and forth as he made a gesture.

Yang Zhi looked at the coffee shop and saw that it was empty. Other than the three couples at the door, he only knew about the two waiters at the cashier's counter. However, after looking around, Yang Zhi had already reached a conclusion.

He once again looked at Zhou Wen, only to see that he was unharmed. However, his face did not look too good, and he frowned as he stared at the old man. It seemed that the old man had dragged Zhou Wen into this unpleasantness.

Yang Zhi was not sure if the old man was telling the truth that he did not come from the south, but his appearance was truly too strange, causing Yang Zhi to have no choice but to gather all of his focus to answer: "May I know old man's name?"

"No need to mention your surname, just name Huangfu and let me know."

he said softly, sipping his coffee.

Huangfu?

This surname was very special!

Yang Zhi thought back to what he knew right now. Perhaps it meant that there were two families in the Huangfu Family, one in the Yanjing and the other in Berlin. It was rumored that they had travelled overseas at the beginning of the last century.

Whether it was the Huangfu family in Yanjing or the Huangfu family in Berlin, Yang Zhi did not have any relationship with them. He did not know why this old mister had come, and judging from his faint aura, Yang Zhi felt that the Huangfu family in Berlin would not be able to nurture such a talent.

He couldn't figure it out, so Yang Zhi went straight to the point, "Old Master Huangfu took so much trouble to meet me, I wonder what business might you have?"

"Everyone is saying that Mr. Yang is arrogant and despotic, recklessly and wantonly. Looks like the rumors today are not true!"

Old mister Huangfu did not reply to Yang Zhi. Instead, he looked at Yang Zhi with a slight smile and narrowed his eyes, as he spoke about something else.

"Mr. Yang has already gained insight into the True Martial Dao at the age of twenty-two, and his future is limitless." Mr. Yang has already gained insight into the True Martial Dao at the age of twenty-two, and his future is limitless.

What the heck!

If not for the fact that Yang Zhi felt that he couldn't defeat the old man who was over a hundred years old, he would have long saved Zhou Wen.

However, when Mister Huangfu said that he had comprehended the True Martial Dao, Yang Zhi was slightly startled. It seemed that the pressure Mister Huangfu gave him came from the suppression of absolute strength, which was why Yang Zhi felt depressed.

But at the same time, a faint warmth came from the dragon ring on Yang Zhi's right hand. From this, Yang Zhi was able to learn that Huangfu, who had given him a great deal of pressure, was not hostile towards him.

This made Yang Zhi even more baffled.

Yang Zhi glanced at the three couples at the door, and said to Mister Huangfu: "Old sir, you took so much effort, but it was just a moment of curiosity?"

Mister Huangfu Zhi shook his head. "I'm not the one who brought those people here."

"Oh?"

Yang Zhi was startled, then immediately locked his eyebrows.

"I prefer to travel alone, so I usually don't bring any servants with me."

Huangfu Haoyue drank a mouthful of coffee and said with a smile, "You should be able to guess the origins of those people."

Yang Zhi nodded his head: "I only have a few enemies in the country, those who have the ability to do so can be counted on one hand."

Mister Huangfu nodded in agreement. He put down the cup of coffee and said with a grin, "Mr. Yang's calmness is really eye-opener. You have to know that in the country, aside from the Five Great Families, only Mr. Yang can be so calm."

"Sure enough."

Yang Zhi had only been guessing at first, but now that Mr. Huangfu had pointed it out, he asked with a bit of curiosity, "If the Qing Gang still dares to come, I'm afraid that they have something to rely on. Does Mr. Huangfu know anything?"

As expected, Huangfu Haoyue nodded and said, "I've temporarily persuaded that stubborn little old man to leave. However, if he comes again, it won't be so easy to leave."

"Thank you, Mister Huangfu."

Yang Zhi thanked him slightly.

"You don't have to thank me. Actually, even without me, he still wouldn't have done anything to you!"

Mister Huangfu waved his hand. It seemed to be a small matter that wasn't worth mentioning.

However, Yang Zhi was confused. As if knowing that he had started to train, Huangfu Haoyue said that he had started to train in the True Martial Arts, which was why he said that he had begun to train in it. If the masses were to view body strengthening training, martial arts, fighting techniques and other common body strengthening techniques, then the training of absorbing the Heaven and Earth Qi into one's body to awaken one's body would be similar to the cultivation of the True Cultivators in the legends.

But, what was this Zhen Wu Dao?

Huangfu first said that even without him, that person wouldn't have done anything to Yang Zhi.

He had only been cultivating for a few days, and the miraculous inner energy was flowing through his four channels. Although Yang Zhi's battle prowess had already risen by an unprecedented amount, he felt that there was still a huge difference between a 'wild rat' like himself and a true expert.

This was not Yang Zhi's lack of confidence, but rather a type of self-awareness. Just like how a poor, rural child compared to a child from a large city would have a huge difference in the quality of their body, let alone those in the knowledge reserve.

Yang Zhi still had a lot of questions, but this Mister Huangfu in front of him seemed to have pointed out to him when he was just about to lose his way. Although he did not trust Huangfu Haoyue very much, Yang Zhi felt that he should be able to get more information about cultivation from him.

However, before Yang Zhi could ask, Mr Huangfu finished the cup of coffee in one gulp and stood up to leave.

"Mister Huangfu?"

Yang Zhi was completely confused by Mr. Huangfu's actions. He got up and tried to ask Mr. Huangfu to stay.

However, Mister Huangfu's figure was strange. He had just gotten up, and in the blink of an eye, he was already three to five steps away from. Yang Zhi was completely unable to keep up with his opponent's speed.

"If fate wills it, we will meet again."

After leaving behind this sentence, Mister Huangfu had already disappeared from the entrance of the coffee shop.

Only Yang Zhi and Zhou Wen remained in the coffee shop.

After a long while, Yang Zhi finally managed to sit down slowly. He looked at the chair that Huangfu was sitting on, and started to think about something.

"Brother Zhi."

Zhou Wen's soft voice woke Yang Zhi from his deep thoughts.

Yang Zhi raised his head, only to see Zhou Wen's expression still not looking good. He patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Mister Huangfu should not be an enemy, if he does this, perhaps he will be in trouble. You don't have to take today's matter to heart."

Mr. Huangfu's strange actions puzzled Yang Zhi, but at the same time, it also made Zhou Wen blame himself. Zhou Wen felt that it was precisely because of his uselessness that he was' held back 'by Mr. Huangfu, causing Yang Zhi to be forced into that passive state just now.

However, Yang Zhi did not think that way. A few days ago, who would have known that there was such a supreme existence in the world, not to mention the current Zhou Wen and Yang Zhi, even if Yang Zhi brought all his bodyguards along, he was sure that Mister Huangfu would be able to bring him out from there.

He could not always ask others to help him, nor could he remain passive like he had been today. If today, the one that appeared was not Mister Huangfu but the mysterious expert from the Qing Gang, Yang Zhi really would not dare to imagine what would happen to him and Zhou Wen.
