The Eastern Continent Swordsman

CH. 83 – Last Decision

Nothing on earth just happens. In fact, even a coincidence he said was something that had been planned. As in the case of Zhou Fu who came out of Youhi Island to escort Miss Shen Yang, his journey to Caihong actually led him to a puzzle piece about his own identity. It seemed, fate did want to show Zhou Fu something on his way back Miss Shen Yang.

Zhou Fu was sitting quietly in the corner of the room, his mind was busy pondering a few things. The mission of saving Shen Shen was almost completed perfectly. It would be very easy for him to return home to Youhi island and continue training with Li Xian's grandfather. But unfortunately, his mind is shrouded in curiosity that may always haunt his head if he chooses to return to Youhi. Curiosity often makes a person's heart flipped back and forth in anxiety.

Zhou Fu, who had never thought too much about himself, was suddenly very curious about the origin of his life. His encounter with Patriarch Yuan Kai led him to suspect that he was deliberately hidden for his special ability to read Shufashen. Then, his curiosity grew even more when Zhao Yunlei told him about the special elite troops from across the country who were assigned to find Shufashen readers.

That means, Shufashen is a global issue that does not only involve one country. And in his heart, Zhou Fu suddenly shuddered, imagining that he was one of the important figures in the whirlpool of issues that shook the world. However, Zhou Fu again had to gulp because he did not even understand anything about the Shufashen issue.

“Young Master, until when will Young Master remain here? Doesn't Young Master want to sleep in the inn alone? These bodies let me take care of them!” The Jing Guards had suddenly appeared before Zhou Fu. Zhou Fu was unaware since when the Jing Guards were there because he was daydreaming long enough.

“Oh, Jing Guards. Sorry, I want to be alone first! Jing Guards please just go back to the inn, I am not wanting to sleep tonight,” Zhou Fu said as he stood up and invited Jing's bodyguards to return to the inn.

“Alright, Young Master. I will return to the inn and tomorrow morning we will continue our journey. Related to these bodies, shouldn't we need to clean it first?” jing's bodyguard asked back.

“Yes, you can clean up these bodies. After all I have found the parties who need to be responsible for this case. Oh yes, while you guys take care of it, I will take a short walk to get some fresh air,” Zhou Fu said then went out of the room.

Guards Jing nodded her head. He observed Zhou Fu's back until it disappeared from view. He put the curiosity that I peed strongly on the teenager who had just left. From the way Feng Yaoshan had put his fear into Zhou Fu, Jing's bodyguards had thought that Zhou Fu might be the crown prince of a land outside Caihong. If so, then no wonder he also saw the charisma that came out of every sentence Zhou Fu said.

When walking down the deserted residential area, there was a shadow that seemed to be following Zhou Fu. Zhou Fu stopped his steps, trying to give the shadow a chance to appear. But after a long time there was no sign of movement, Zhou Fu cleared his throat and spoke with air.

“Come, exit. I know you are around here.” Zhou Fu said in a voice that was not so loud, the night was still quiet enough that even a soft voice would be heard loudly at such times.

Since there was still no movement from the person who was stalking him, Zhou Fu tried to lure the person out again.

“Come on, aren't we playing hide and seek? Shen Shen?!” zhou Fu said with a small smile on his lips. The flashing shadow was approaching, getting closer and now was right behind Zhou Fu's back.

“You? How do you know?” shen Shen asked after he stood behind Zhou Fu's back. Zhou Fu turned his back, the young man was now facing Shen Shen who looked spoiled and spoiled.

“It looks like your training in dreamland is quite fruitful?” Zhou Fu grabbed Shen Shen's hand and tried to check the muscle strength in the girl's arm, “not bad. You've mastered the basics of martial arts apparently.” Zhou Fu did not expect that Shen Shen would actually do martial arts training while wearing the Silver Dragon Diadem heirloom he obtained from the Luzon Sea.

“Hey, you haven't answered my question! Why do you know I'm following you?” shen Shen asked as he shook his arm to get rid of the hand of Zhou Fu who was examining the veins in his hand.

“Stupid! We have both been around for quite some time, at least for me, and it is enough to be able to recognize the aura of your body from a short distance away,” Zhou Fu replied as he turned his back and turned to Shen Shen. Shen Shen walked quickly to Zhou Fu's footsteps.

Zhou Fu paused for a moment, his brows furrowed slightly then he muttered, “no. I don't want to ask, why? If you want to tell a story, just say it while I'm not busy.”

“You should ask, or at least be curious why there are beautiful girls following you!” singshen Shen was upset.

“What is the importance of it? Still more important things to think about!” replied Zhou Fu flatly.

“Sial! Does that mean you're completely oblivious to me?” Shen Shen stopped stepping, he was annoyed because it seemed like he had a strange feeling to the teenager who was even a year away from him. And then he was even more upset because the teenager did not even heed his presence.

“What do you mean ignore you, Miss Shen? You forget who bothered to take you home to Caihong? Ah, if it wasn't for you, I might have mastered some new styles from my teacher by now!”

“So, you regret having chosen the wrong decision?” Shen Shen suddenly glazed over, it felt really annoying when faced with a man who had no taste with a beautiful woman.

“Hei... What do you mean? Stop acting like children, I never regret the decision I made. Likewise with the decision I will take soon..”.

Shen Shen looked up, looking back at the look in Zhou Fu's eyes that looked a little bimbag.

“The decision you will take? What?” Shen Shen asked.

“I won't leave Caihong until I find the answer to my question!” zhou Fu said, between sure and doubtful.

“Really? Goody. I'll take you around town!” shen Shen was excited again.

“Oh, no. That's not what I meant. I will stay here for some time, but that doesn't mean staying with you, Miss Manja! Looks like I'll just wander from city to city, until the questions in my head get answered.”

“What is your question? I will help as much as I can!” shen Shen said as if he had not wanted to part with Zhou Fu.

“Ah, how could you possibly know! Answer me, who is my father? Who's mother? Who me? You know?” Zhou Fu shrugged, as if challenging Shen Shen to answer his question.

“Sial, try to ask another question!”

Zhou Fu was stunned for a moment, then he closed his lips in Shen Shen's ears, “well, I wonder if you understand or at least have heard of Shufashen?”
