Yao Tian Hao couldn't help but reveal an awkward expression as he looked at Ye Qing.

Ye Qing replied indifferently, "Since you invited me here and I agreed, then I have the duty to protect you. As for inner strength martial artists, in my opinion, they are just exaggerations, not worth mentioning at all. "Unless it's someone who's a master of martial arts, he might be able to hold on for a while in my hands."

"Arrogant!" "How arrogant." Qiu Zhen An sneered.

Seeing that Ye Qing and Qiu Zhen An seemed to be at odds, Yao Tian Hao could not help but feel even more conflicted.

But in the end, when he thought of the relationship between Ye Qing and Elder Fan, he decided to let Ye Qing go with him. Seeing Yao Tianhao's decision, Qiu Zhen let out a cold snort and no longer objected.

After all, he was only hired by Yao Tianhao to help. There was no way for him to take Yao Tianhao's place. However, after this incident, he was even more disgusted with Ye Qing.

Not long after, Ye Qing and the group of seven arrived at Green Bamboo Bay's Lakeheart Pavilion and sat inside it, waiting for the arrival of Chang Zai.

Of course, before Ye Qing and the others arrived, Yao Tian Hao had already made hundreds of his subordinates come here in advance to prepare an ambush. Although he knew that this group of a hundred would not be able to hold off Chang Shang, they could at least weaken his strength and increase his chances of victory.

At the Lakeheart Pavilion in Green Bamboo Bay, Ye Qing had come once because Ye Yangran wanted to participate in Lin Chen's birthday.

This lake was roughly circular, with an area of one mile. On the shore, there were many green bamboo trees, and only a small, zigzag stone bridge led to the pavilion in the middle of the lake.

"It looks like that Chang Shang invited you to this small pavilion because he was afraid that you would find people to surround and attack him. He could jump into the water at any time to escape." Qiu Zhen An looked around and said with a smile.

"With Instructor Qiu here, would we let him escape? "Haha." Yao Tianhao smiled in flattery.

"No matter what, we still have to be careful." Qiu Zhen An nodded, but he did not try to hide the pride on his face.

He had been in Prefecture Country for nearly ten years. Aside from the county governor, Duan Can, he was the strongest in the county. He, Qiu Zhen, had long developed a feeling of complacency.

Plus, there weren't many inner strength warriors. As the instructor of the Heavy Armor Infantry Division, he had never seen many of them, even in the army. So, how could he be afraid of such a common practice that he had never met before?

The few of them sat upright in the pavilion, and their surroundings were deathly silent.

The maids serving the guests serving tea could not help but shiver as they felt the lakeshore, which was entirely different from the bustling scene from before.

After all, Yao Tianhao had sent over a hundred of his men to ambush them. Most of them knew something big was going to happen tonight, but none of the gangs dared to linger in this troublesome place.

Naturally, this caused the entire Green Bamboo Bay to turn silent.

Ye Qing sat there and drank tea. Looking at this small pavilion that had an ancient appearance standing in the middle of the lake, he couldn't help but slightly nod his head.

The last time he went there, he did not take a good look, and now that he was quietly admiring the scenery, he discovered that this place actually had some kind of otherworldly artistic conception. It was probably the scene of some famous expert, no wonder this Green Bamboo Bay usually became the bustling place in the county city.

Just as everyone was getting impatient from waiting, Qiu Zhen An, who had been resting, suddenly opened his eyes.

"He's here!"

From outside the lake came a series of exclamations, followed by a series of clanging sounds of metal weapons and even the sharp sounds of hidden arrows being shot out.

But the voices soon disappeared.

Everyone sitting at the pavilion in the middle of the lake could not help but be shocked as they looked at the silhouette that had appeared by the lake.
