A carefree soldier king in the city

Chapter 584: Romantic Figures

"Second Brother," Chao Bufan quickly said, "I've already eaten down the mountain."

"Have you eaten? Would you like some more?" Chu Xiong asked.

"No need, Senior Brother, I'm full!" After a few seconds of contemplation, Chao Bufan said, "Senior Brothers, there's something I'd like to discuss with you."

The four brothers sat together, and Chu Xiong asked, "Junior Brother, what's the matter?"

Chao Bufan smiled sadly and said, "Actually, I only have seven days to come back this time. I have to go back after seven days."

"Junior brother, are you going back?" Chu Xiong asked.

Chao Bufan grunted in agreement and said, "HX still has a lot of things waiting for me to do!"

"Junior brother, now that you're back, why do you want to go back? Can't you just stay?" the dwarf asked.

“Senior brother, I don’t want to go back either. There are some things that I can’t explain in a short time. It’s all fate.” Chao Bufan said sadly, “If I don’t go back, some things might not be the way they are. Everything is predestined.”

“Junior Brother,” Chu Xiong said, “Senior Brother doesn’t understand what destiny means, but Senior Brother believes in you.”

"Thank you, Senior Brother," Chao Bufan smiled slightly. "Senior Brother, leave my father's revenge to me! I will avenge him."

"No, my eldest brother will avenge our master..."

Chao Bufan interrupted Chu Xiong, smiled slightly, and said, "Senior brother, listen to me first. The hatred of killing one's father is irreconcilable, and besides, I have the ability to do so. Senior brother, some things are destined, and that is an unchangeable fact."

“Junior brother,” the dwarf said, “listen to your senior brothers, we will avenge our master.”

"Sigh~" Chao Bufan sighed softly and said, "My three senior brothers, if I told you that my cultivation has reached the peak of the Harmony Realm, I doubt any of you would believe me. Here's what I'll do! I'll help you improve your cultivation now. Although doing so will change your fate, it won't have any impact on you. It'll just mean that I'll lose a few hundred years of my lifespan. But for you, what does that little bit of lifespan matter to me?"

“Junior Brother,” Chu Xiong said in surprise, “I don’t understand what you mean.”

Chao Bufan smiled slightly and said, "It's right that you don't understand. You don't need to understand."

As he spoke, Chao Bufan flicked his finger, and Chu Xiong and the other two immediately trembled. Then, Chu Xiong exclaimed in shock, "Junior Brother, this..."

Chao Bufan smiled slightly and said, "Senior brothers, now you believe what I said, right? This is all I can do to help you."

Chu Xiong and the other two were overjoyed and nodded in unison. Then, Chu Xiong stood up and said, "Junior Brother, I will go and kill the Moon Goddess now to avenge our Master."

"Senior Brother," Chao Bufan quickly said, "Listen to me first."

"Junior brother, so you really are..." Wang Er said excitedly.

Chao Bufan smiled and said, "Senior brother, let me, your unfilial son, avenge our father! But killing him like this would be too easy on him."

Chu Xiong thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Junior Brother, what do you plan to do with him?"

The three of them never expected that their junior brother could raise his cultivation level several levels with just a few gestures. It turned out that their junior brother had really reached the peak of the Harmony Realm.

Chao Bufan said, "I'll make him wish he were dead first, and then I'll bring his head to appease my father's spirit in heaven."

"Then what do we do?" Wang Er asked.

“Senior brother, our Lonely City has always been the leader of the righteous path. It’s just a pity that people’s hearts are insatiable and the world is cold-hearted. Those so-called righteous people are willing to submit to the Moon Goddess in order to protect themselves. Senior brother, you have a heavy burden on your shoulders. Lonely City is still Lonely City, still the leader of the righteous path. As for how to do it, that’s up to you.” Chao Bufan said solemnly.

Chu Xiong nodded and said, "Junior Brother, your senior brothers know what to do."

Chao Bufan pondered for a moment, then asked, "Senior Brother, I heard that Linglong has already gotten married. Is that true?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Xiong's face flashed with anger, and he said, "Junior Brother, why are you still mentioning such a vicious woman?"

Chao Bufan smiled bitterly and said, "No matter what, I did truly love her before. Actually, I came back this time to remove this thorn from my heart."

Chu Xiong and the others understood. The dwarf said, "Junior Brother, she is now married to Kuai Zhengliang, the son of the Moon Goddess."

“I know,” Chao Bufan said, “Do you know where she is now?”

“In Tiandu City,” Wang Er replied.

"Tiandu City." Chao Bufan read it aloud, then said, "I understand. Senior brother, it's getting late, you should get some rest! I'm tired too."

“Okay,” Chu Xiong said, “Junior brother, you should get some rest. Your wives are waiting for you! We’re going back to our rooms to rest too.”

Goodnight, senior brother!

Goodnight, junior brother.

At this moment, Baihe and the others were all alone. They gathered together, some sitting on the bed and some at the table, chatting and laughing, showing no signs of worry at all.

"Squeak!"

The door opened, and Chao Bufan pushed it in, then closed it behind him.

"Bufan, you're back," the women said.

Chao Bufan grunted in agreement, and Xiaomin quickly stood up, saying, "Bufan, sit here!"

As she spoke, she sat down on the bed.

After Chao Bufan sat down, he asked, "Why aren't you resting yet?"

“Bufan, we’ve been waiting for you!” Lily said.

"Wait for me?" Chao Bufan asked, puzzled. "Why would you wait for me?"

Tang Qianqian smiled slightly with a peculiar expression and said, "Bufan, your three senior brothers told us about your past!"

Upon hearing this, Chao Bufan's heart tightened, and he hurriedly asked, "What did they say?"

Yifei said, "I didn't expect you to be such a notorious womanizer!"

“That’s right,” Chao Bufan said smugly, “A man who isn’t a bit of a playboy in his youth is wasting his life! It’s perfectly normal!”

Lily said, "It's normal, but we sisters have all been fooled by your appearance!"

Ruyu raised an eyebrow and said, "We've heard that you used to be a good-for-nothing and a menace to society!"

"Uh!" Chao Bufan exclaimed in surprise, then jumped up, "Bullshit! Which senior brother is slandering me?"

Tang Qianqian let out a long "Oh," and said, "So it was your senior brothers who were slandering you!"

Chao Bufan glanced furtively at his wives, sensing something was amiss, and quickly chuckled, "Actually, I am a bit of a womanizer, but I'm a decent man and never do anything bad."

"Really?" Lily asked.
