“It can charge into sheep.”
After hearing this, Wang Ping silently picked up a chopstick of food, stuffed it into his mouth, and muttered:
“Suddenly, it doesn’t feel that bad.”
Chen Yuan chuckled. After all, add the words ‘charge into sheep’ and a man could find any food delicious.
“Wang Ping.”
“What is it, Brother Yuan?” Wang Ping, with that dark substance in his mouth, responded.
...
“Have you ever thought about leaving Ping’an County?” Chen Yuan asked.
Wang Ping was taken aback:
“Why leave? Isn’t it pretty good here in Ping’an County?”
After saying that, Wang Ping paused:
“Brother Yuan, are you thinking about leaving?”
“What do you think?”
Chen Yuan didn’t answer but asked back instead.
“I think… hehe, it’s better for you, Brother Yuan, to leave.”
“Why is that?”
“Ping’an County is too small. It might fit an ordinary person like me, but not someone ambitious like you. Leaving is the best choice for you.” Wang Ping said softly.
He had realized this a long time ago, probably ever since Chen Yuan had revealed his abilities and assumed the position of the arrest officer.
His father had said, a man who can control his desires is a tough one.
And Brother Yuan…
Wang Ping had been observing for a long time. Ever since he returned from healing his injuries, Brother Yuan had changed, becoming less keen on women and instead focusing on Martial Arts and power.
Chen Yuan gave Wang Ping a surprised look, seemingly not expecting such an answer from him.
“With such a vast world, how can you experience the heroes of the world or aspire to the pinnacle of Martial Arts without stepping out?”
“It’s a pity that my talents are poor, otherwise following you, Brother Yuan, would be a good choice…” Wang Ping laughed.
Although he was greedy and lustful, a typical mortal, his mind was still clear. He knew that with his Skin Refining level, he could not only fail to help Brother Yuan but might also add trouble.
Chen Yuan nodded, not surprised by Wang Ping’s answer.
Having interacted for so long, he had come to understand Wang Ping quite well.
He knew what kind of person he was.
The atmosphere around the wine table grew somewhat heavy, and Wang Ping chuckled and said:
“Brother Yuan, let’s not talk about this. Even if you leave, you can’t go right now. You still have time to enjoy yourself.”
In Wang Ping’s view, Chen Yuan would definitely leave, but it was not the time yet, as he had only recently become the arrest officer.
“Hehe…”
Chen Yuan neither objected nor agreed.
“Right, Brother Yuan, can you give me some advice?”
Wang Ping’s eyes flickered as he looked around, then spoke in a lowered voice.
“What’s up?”
“A couple of days ago, my dad arranged a marriage for me,” Wang Ping said with a gloomy face.
“Arranging marriages is usually good news, why the long face? Is the girl ugly?”
In any world, appearances matter. If she was very ugly, it was understandable for Wang Ping to be upset.
“She’s not very bad looking. Her family is well-off and she is pretty, which I quite like. It’s just…”
Wang Ping bit his lip and continued:
“It’s just that she seems very aloof. I’ve met her a few times, and she doesn’t seem very interested in me, but her family didn’t oppose nor agree when my dad proposed the marriage.”
“Brother Yuan, what should I do now?”
“If I’m rejected, it wouldn’t look good for my family.”
After saying that, Wang Ping looked hopefully at Chen Yuan, hoping he would offer some advice.
Ever since Brother Yuan became the arrest officer, Wang Ping had pretty much considered him his mainstay, always consulting him on everything, and most importantly, Brother Yuan occasionally said some profound things.

“If she’s pretty, which one do you not like?” Chen Yuan glanced at Wang Ping and said.
“Brother Yuan, stop teasing me, just help me figure this out.”
“Do you really like her?”
“I truly like her!”
Chen Yuan paused for a moment then said:
“A woman is like sand in your hand, do you understand?”
Wang Ping paused silently for a long time, took a deep breath, and said:
“Brother Yuan, I understand.”
“What have you understood?” Chen Yuan was a bit surprised. Had Wang Ping become smarter? Could he really understand the underlying meaning here?
Wang Ping: “A woman is like sand, the tighter you grasp, the easier it slips away. Brother Yuan, you’re suggesting I let go, right?
Thinking about it, it makes sense. If I can’t hold onto the sand, better to let it scatter!”
“Brother Yuan, you’re so carefree, is that how you think too?”
Chen Yuan: “….”
He shook his head slightly and said:
“You’re overthinking it. What I mean is, a woman is like sand; grasp her by knowing her, and then holding on becomes easy, doesn’t it?”
Wang Ping: “???”
…
…
After leaving the tavern, Chen Yuan bid farewell to Wang Ping and walked alone towards his home. Now, the sky had completely darkened, and in the absence of bright moonlight, an ordinary person could hardly see the road ahead.
All the streets were eerily silent except for the occasional sounds of night watchmen, and there were no pedestrians in sight.
In a world devoid of entertainment activities, ordinary people either retired early or indulged in another form of amusement…
“Sasha…”
Chen Yuan walked purposefully, his gaze steady, his pace consistent.
“Whooosh…”
“Whooosh…”
Breezes swirled, carrying leaves along with them.
Suddenly, a sharp killing intent unmasked itself from behind.
Chen Yuan was startled and instinctively bent down at an odd angle, then immediately a flash of blade light shot out, striking towards the approaching figure.
