Fang Yu returned to his room with the fastest speed. Upon listening briefly, he only heard intermittent rolling noises inside.
He was slightly taken aback.
Could it be an enemy invasion?
He pushed the door open directly.
The scene before him caused his face to turn red with embarrassnt—
Xu Sisi was sitting on the bed naked, gesticulating back and forth with a faint smile on her face and her fingers poised elegantly, reminiscent of performing an opera. It was evident that she was delighted.
At the mont Fang Yu burst in.
Her actions ceased abruptly.
As if frozen, she remained motionless.
Following that, her pretty face turned bright red, flushed.
"Sorry, I should have knocked," Fang Yu quickly retreated.
Upon exiting, he closed the door with a clang.
Fang Yu patted his chest, saying, "Good thing I got out quickly... If she had called a scoundrel, my shining image established in the Luli Sect would have been ruined."
...
To the north of Ze State, a mountain range that stretches for thousands of miles on the northern side.
Huaxia, Zhulu Continent.
On the southern side, the winding Yellow River stretches for thousands of miles, spanning east to west across Huaxia.
Black Mountain Sect is located within Zhulu State, just a three-hour journey from the Northern Desert.
At this mont.
Gongsun Chu, the Young Master of Black Mountain Sect, stood quietly in the courtyard, his face full of displeasure.
Gongsun Chu stared intently at the subordinate before him, saying, "Are you saying that Xu Sisi still hasn’t agreed?"
"Y-Young Master... yes. The Xu family is too audacious and reckless. Perhaps, perhaps... Your subordinate will lead n to annihilate them. Then, Xu Sisi will have to agree," the subordinate trembled as he spoke.
"Rubbish!"
Gongsun Chu cursed loudly, "If I could annihilate the Xu family, I would have acted long ago... Why would I need your advice?"
"Forgive , Young Master!"
Gongsun Chu, furious, stood with his hands behind his back, grimly saying, "The old tirs in the sect always oppose using force. Over the years, the surrounding tribes have drastically decreased, and we need ti for recovery... Black Mountain Sect has long established a rule that without a proper reason, we never easily slaughter weaker tribes."
This is a longstanding rule set by the Dark Forest Law after cultivators banded together to form sects, revealing a vicious cycle—
The strong always bully the weak, ruthlessly slaughtering them. One result of this is that one day, the weak will be extinct. Then, there will be no new blood to replenish.
Every expert starts as the weak.
Without the weak, where would the strong co from?
"What should we do now, Young Master?" asked the subordinate.
Gongsun Chu scoffed and replied:
"Since the rule is set, we must act according to the rule... We just need a reasonable excuse, right? If there isn’t one, we’ll create one!"
Hearing this.
The subordinate’s eyes lit up, chuckling softly, "I understand. I’ll handle it imdiately."
As the man was about to leave,
Gongsun Chu added, "Also, it’s been a long ti since any news ca from Hongn. Have soone investigate imdiately. And, pay extra attention to Master Xi Zhongwen. We can’t afford any mishaps with the Array Master of Black Mountain Sect."
"Yes!"
Of course, this didn’t an he cared about Xi Zhongwen’s life.
Rather, the Black Mountain Sect did. If sothing happened to Xi Zhongwen, the consequences from the higher-ups’ bla would be unimaginable.
Thinking this, Gongsun Chu sneered slightly, "Master oh master, sotis I really am torn, if you really were to et an accident, it would indeed resolve a lot for . Xu Sisi, oh Xu Sisi... you truly keep up night and day, so uneasy..."
...
In the North Mountain region, Luli Sect.
Shangguan Hong issued a strict order to all mbers of the sect not to let news of Xi Zhongwen’s death leak out.
The disciples of Luli Sect, having experienced this life or death situation, fully understood what this ant and thus kept their lips sealed, achieving an unprecedented unity within the sect.
To ensure the safety of the Luli Sect, Fang Yu deliberately left marking arrays around the periter.
If a strong cultivator arrives, his array would sense it imdiately.
The next day, early morning.
Fang Yu and others descended the mountain, preparing to return to Yanjing.
The Luli Sect saw them off respectfully, with great deference in their attitude.
The farewell event for the Xu family was much grander. After all, to them, Fang Yu was a lifesaver.
"Safe travels, elder!"
All mbers of the Luli Sect bowed simultaneously, speaking in unison.
Fang Yu rode a tall horse, moving forward.
"Fang bro, shall we drive back instead?" Chen Daotian suggested.
"The mountain roads are tough; let’s switch to a car when we reach the suburbs."
Hearing this.
Xu Sisi, sitting in Fang Yu’s embrace, puzzled, said: "Shouldn’t riding a horse be faster than riding in a horse-drawn carriage?"
"This car is not that kind of car," Chen Daotian said.
Xu Huawen intervened, "Sister, you haven’t been out before, you don’t understand the outside world. This car is much steadier than a horse, more comfortable to sit in, and faster. It’s just not suitable for mountain roads!"
Xu Sisi said, "I still prefer riding a horse."
Chen Daotian and Xu Huawen were both taken aback.
Fang Yu waved his hand and said, "Then let’s ride horses back... up—"
He scooped Xu Sisi by her slim waist and dashed off.
Chen Daotian rolled his eyes and said, "About releasing the horses... why do I feel like there’s sothing between those two?"
"This..."
"Definitely! Who else would giggle while sitting in a man’s arms? Did your sister ever do that?" said Chen Daotian.
"I guess, probably, perhaps, right." Xu Huawen watched their disappearing backs with a complex gaze.
...
Near noon.
In a bustling street.
"Look at those people, so weird, riding horses on the street..." Many passersby took out their phones to take pictures.
"Wow, that girl is so beautiful."
"Her outfit looks like that of an ancient woman, too bad she’s already taken..."
"Hey, handso, take a photo with ." A girl ran up to Chen Daotian asking for a photo.
Chen Daotian boastfully said to Xu Huawen, "See, the charm of your bro, is sothing you kids wouldn’t understand!"
Just as he finished speaking.
The girl took out her phone, flashed a peace sign, and said, "Handso, could you please step aside? This horse is so beautiful, I want a photo just with it!"
"..."
"..."
Xu Huawen stifled a laugh.
Fang Yu shook his head and said, "Let’s hurry, before the city managent cos..."
"Yes!"
The two followed closely behind Fang Yu’s horse, quickly heading towards the Ye Family villa.
Xu Sisi, entering this bustling city for the first ti, was quickly captivated by all the novel and bizarre attractions, her face excited as she looked around.
Not a trace of the demure lady she was, appearing more like a curious baby.
"Mr. Fang, the buildings here are so tall... Are the people here powerful cultivators? Otherwise, how could they build houses up to the clouds?"
"Mr. Fang, what is that hanging on the wall? It shines and can trap people inside, is it a powerful Restriction Magic Tool?"
"..."
Faced with these nurous questions.
Fang Yu was speechless but patiently answered each one.
Not long after.
They arrived outside the Ye Family villa.
The first Hidden Dragon Guard rushed in to report.
"Report! Miss Ye, the young master has returned!"
Hearing this news, Ye Wenjun imdiately stood up and asked, "Where are they?"
"Right outside in the yard, young master has brought back a beautiful woman!"
"..."
The originally serene face that briefly flashed joy, suddenly emitted a stern and stern aura, and said, "Don’t talk nonsense... Let everyone co out with to welco them."
"Yes!"
PS: I’ve been particularly busy these days! But I’ve always made sure to update at least 4 Chapters as I said. I managed to update five or six Chapters in a row for a week. When work slows down, I will continue to burst out Chapters. I really want to say that everyone has their affairs, big and small, please understand. I’ve consistently updated 4 or more Chapters, and not many can do this. Those who often read know better than I do... Today I’m updating 4 Chapters ahead of ti, written by staying up late and getting up early this morning. I have to go out this afternoon until tonight, and around 22:00 if I have ti, I will add another Chapter to make up for everyone... If not, please forgive , and I will make it up later.
