The three of them worked together to carry the injured person to the nearby mountain temple and bandage his wound. Seeing that he had not woken up, Li Huairou was a little distressed, but she still took out a yuan qi pill and fed it to the man.

Seeing this, Luo Rongrong jokingly said, “Xiao Shimei, could it be that you like this person? This yuan qi pill is a good medicine for internal injuries. My mother only makes one pot in three years, and there are ten pills in one pot, and she only gave you one pill. Are you also willing?”

As the head of Qishan, Su Qing was not very good in martial arts, but her alchemy was first-class. The yuan qi pill she refined was a good medicine for internal injuries, but it was very rare. Of only a few beloved disciples, each person had one.

“Shijie, don’t talk nonsense! It’s better to save a life than to build a seventh-level pagoda!” Li Huairou said helplessly. Su Muhe did his best for revenge, and his injury was real. In the novel, Su Qing had also fed him two yuan qi pills before he woke up.

But Luo Rongrong didn’t believe her words, and she laughed and took out her own yuan qi pill. “He’s hurt so badly. I guess one won’t work, and I still have one. Take it!”

Li Huaishan shook his head. “I have one. You can quickly put it away. It can save lives in critical situations!”

“No, we can’t use yours. You’re impatient, always ready to defend the weak and helpless, and you’re often injured, so we can’t use yours. Put it away! I’ll go back and ask my mother for one. That’s it,” Luo Rongrong said immediately. How could she be willing for Li Huaishan to take out his yuan qi pill?

Li Huairou’s heart was moved. If Luo Rongrong thought that she liked Su Muhe, then Luo Rongrong would not be tempted by Su Muhe.

So Li Huairou took Luo Rongrong’s yuan qi pill and fed it to him.

Sure enough, after a while, Su Muhe woke up. When he saw the person in front of him, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes. Hadn’t he inquired around? Wouldn’t that person be coming here for a walk? How could it be them?!

“Thank you for your life-saving grace,” Su Muhe weakly said after sorting out his thoughts.

“Come on, tell your story! We’re all ears!” Li Huairou brought a few bedrolls and threw them on the ground. She picked one up and sat down. She also took out a handful of melon seeds from her pocket and handed it to Luo Rongrong.

Luo Rongrong sat down beside her, grabbed a handful of melon seeds, and the two looked at Su Muhe while eating them, waiting for him to speak.

Li Huaishan couldn’t help laughing. Although he knew that his sister was not malicious, it was a bit rude to speak like this.

“Sorry, my sister is young, and she may have offended you.” Li Huaishan cupped his hands.

Su Muhe had a little headache because Li Huairou didn’t play cards according to common sense, and he hesitated as to whether he should speak.

Li Huairou was a little disappointed to see that he refused to speak. “Is there no story? Is it inconvenient to tell? Forget it—if you won’t tell me, I’ll tell you a story!”

“Okay, okay! Tell me quickly!” Luo Rongrong urged.

Li Huairou put all the melon seeds into Luo Rongrong’s hands, clapped her hands, and began to speak in a harmonious voice. “There used to be a young man whose ancestors were considered to be from a scholarly family, but they unfortunately fell into disrepair. However, the young man was very smart. He wandered the jianghu and heard a rumor that a holy religion in the southwestern Miaojiang River had a great treasure, and whoever won it could secure half the martial arts community. The young man yearned for it, so he went to Miaojiang to find out. By chance, the young man met a Miao girl, and, with his sweet words, he took advantage of the Miao girl’s sincerity. After a spring breeze, the Miao girl took the boy to the Holy Land, and the young man secretly wrote down the path. A few days later, he sneaked into the Holy Land alone and took the treasure. The young man found a place to practice in seclusion, and he really succeeded. After getting rid of a few thieves in a row in the jianghu, he became a martial arts rookie.”

[Sexual intercourse]

When he heard this, Su Muhe’s expression changed, and his eyes fixed on Li Huairou. It was just that Li Huaishan and Luo Rongrong just listened to the story and hadn’t noticed him.

But as for what happened next, Li Huairou didn’t know whether to say. Luo Rongrong could fall for it, but Li Huaishan was a smart person. As long as she said it, Li Huaishan would definitely guess something. She hadn’t figured out how to explain it all.

Li Huairou hesitated, but Luo Rongrong couldn’t wait and hurriedly asked, “And then? And then?”

“And then, and then, he made a name for himself and became a famous hero,” Li Huairou said with a smile.

Luo Rongrong was very dissatisfied with the ending and asked, “Pff, what! Where’s the Miao girl? Isn’t she supposed to seek revenge? That person betrayed and deceived the Miao girl—didn’t she get revenge?”

“Don’t worry, the story is certainly not over yet. Of course, the Miao girl was not willing to be abandoned and used; she wanted to take revenge. But she’d lost her treasure and received very severe punishment. Besides, she was a woman and couldn’t make a big deal of it. Guess what happened to her?” Li Huairou asked, glancing at Su Muhe’s face.

“She found someone else to help her!” Luo Rongrong replied first.

“Shijie, you are so smart! That Miao girl adopted a child and lied that the young man was his father, instilling the idea of revenge into the child since he was a child. When the child grew up, he really did come to seek revenge. He even used the most vicious method—the only way was to seduce the hero’s daughter. But the hero had been prepared for a long time, and, in the end, both lost. In fact, if the Miao girl had come to avenge herself, no matter what the result was, I would admire her, but she should not use innocent children to achieve her own purpose of revenge,” Li Huairou said.

“How do you know that the child is not the hero’s child?” Su Muhe asked suddenly, attracting the curious eyes of Li Huaishan and Luo Rongrong.

“Didn’t I say it earlier? That hero’s ancestor was also considered a famous family that then fell into decline. He attached great importance to his bloodline’s inheritance, and he only used the Miao girl; he wouldn’t have let the Miao girl have the opportunity to conceive his child,” Li Huairou said.

“Huairou, where did you hear these stories? Did Sixth Shidi bring you some messy books again? Have you forgotten that Shiniang won’t let you read those?” Li Huaishan said with a frown.

“Ge, please don’t tell Shifu and Shiniang! I won’t dare next time. I just think it’s fun. Please, please!” Li Huairou hurriedly begged for mercy.

Luo Rongrong also had a guilty expression on her face. She’d also read those books, but why hadn’t she seen this story? Could it be that Xiao Shimei had hid it?

“Huairou, you’re so mean. Why didn’t you share such a beautiful book with me?” Luo Rongrong said with her hands on her hips.

“Shijie, I only read half of the book before it disappeared, and I haven’t seen the ending!” Li Huairou hurriedly begged for mercy.

“Shimei, even you?” Li Huaishan was very helpless. “I have to tell Shifu and Shiniang and punish you severely.”

Luo Rongrong was not afraid of him, and she immediately said, “You dare! If you tell my parents, I shall ignore you in the future!”

Li Huairou stood behind Luo Rongrong. “Yep, I’ll ignore you.”

Li Huaishan was extremely helpless. “Shimei, Shifu said that if you read too many of these books, it will affect your temperament, so you are not allowed to read them.”

“Alright, alright. We just don’t need to read it in the future! However, you are not allowed to tell my father and mother, and you are not allowed to ask after Sixth Shixiong. Otherwise, I really will ignore you in the future!” Luo Rongrong stepped forward and pulled on Li Huaishan’s sleeve to act like a spoiled child.

“Alright, it’s fine if I don’t say it? Just remember what you promised me, and you won’t be allowed to read it again! Huairou, you too.” Li Huaishan couldn’t stop Luo Rongrong from acting like a spoiled child, and he immediately surrendered.

Su Muhe laid beside him with drooping eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

“Young Master, I am Li Huaishan, the eldest disciple of the Qishan Sect. These are my shimei, Luo Rongrong and Li Huairou. I’m not sure where you’re going?” Li Huaishan asked.

Su Muhe’s original plan was to take this opportunity to infiltrate the Qishan Sect, but now, when he remembered Li Huairou’s story, he was full of doubts. He was a suspicious person, and, recalling his mother’s attitude towards him over the years, she often abused and whipped him, her words were vicious, and the whipping was vicious. He used to think that it was because of his father that his mother refused to get close to him and hated him. If Li Huairou’s story really meant something, was he the mother’s child?

Su Muhe weakly said, “Thank you. I have left a trace, and my family will come.” There was movement outside the area where the conversation was taking place, and a man in black hastily walked in.

Seeing this, Li Huaishan pulled Luo Rongrong and Li Huairou back a few steps. “Since the young master’s family has come, we will leave first.”

Su Muhe nodded. “You’ve saved your life. Muhe will never forget it. I will come to the door to thank you in the future.”

Li Huaishan cupped his hands and pulled the two away.

Li Huairou hadn’t expected Su Muhe to temporarily change his plan. She still wanted to talk to Su Muhe about cooperation. Before leaving, Li Huairou turned her head and glanced at Su Muhe. Unexpectedly, her and Su Muhe’s eyes met, and those eyes were cold, like a poisonous snake’s. Li Huairou shivered and quickly looked away.

Su Muhe temporarily changed the plan and did not take the opportunity to infiltrate the Qishan faction.

“Young Master, if you are like this, Madam will be unhappy,” the subordinate said worriedly.

“Go back first. I have something to investigate!” Su Muhe said with gloomy eyes—no one could use him!

Other than Su Muhe and this accident, this journey passed peacefully.

When Luo Wentai and Su Qing brought their disciples back to Qishan, Li Huairou was still confused. Without Su Muhe’s disturbance, how could Luo Wentai quietly get rid of Su Qing and Luo Rongrong?

But one day, Luo Wentai went down the mountain to visit friends, and when he came back, he brought back a handsome young man with red lips and white teeth. His name was Lin Anzhi, and he was shy and blushed before he could speak.

Except for Li Huaishan and Li Huairou, the other brothers and sisters gathered around the boy.

Especially Luo Rongrong, who was teasing the young man to call her shijie.

Li Huairou really admired Luo Wentai. Without Su Muhe, Lin Anzhi had come again. Haha, he made it clear that he wanted to break up Li Huaishan and Luo Rongrong! But what was the origin of this Lin Anzhi? Was he a tool for revenge, like Su Muhe? No, where did Luo Wentai get so many unnoticed talents! Could he be the ancient master of time management?
