Bishelang Jun was startled by the voice of Murong Jiumei. He leaped back, his lightness skills reaching their peak, and he never thought he could run so fast one day!
But even though he was fast, Murong Jiumei was faster. In an instant, a delicate and fair hand attacked his chest.
Clang...
Bishelang Jun's soft sword was drawn, and he never thought Murong Jiumei would not give face to such a great expert!
He was now in a situation where he had to fight for his life!
The soft sword drew a winding arc, like a venomous snake lurking in the dark, aiming for Murong Jiumei's chest.
Since he had already engaged in combat, he naturally dared not hold back at all. Attacking this sensitive area was also to provoke Murong Jiumei's emotional fluctuations and find an opportunity to escape!
But Murong Jiumei's palm flipped, evading the sword, and turned into a claw, grabbing for his throat!
Bishelang Jun was greatly alarmed, and the soft sword bent, wrapping around Murong Jiumei's arm!
He believed that Murong Jiumei would not leave a scar on her own arm just to kill him!
Indeed, Murong Jiumei's face changed slightly, and she said coldly, "You dare to attack, die!"
She retracted her arm and struck Bishelang Jun's soft sword with a finger. The force was immense, and it deflected the sword.
Then she pointed at Bishelang Jun's throat.
Bishelang Jun felt the shadow of death enveloping him, and he felt that no matter how he moved, he could not avoid this finger!
At this moment, a voice softly sounded: "Move to the Kun position, three points!"
It was Xiao Ran giving instructions!
Bishelang Jun subconsciously followed Xiao Ran's voice, and Murong Jiumei's brows furrowed, feeling that this sword was directly pointing to her weakness, as if she was delivering herself to Bishelang Jun's sword tip!
She coldly snorted, spun her body, and dodged the sword, then struck with another palm!
This move used her true skills, the Fossil Power pushed to its limit, her palm turning an eerie green, as if carved from jade!
The voice sounded again: "Move to the Li position, the sword comes from the Zhen position, seven points!"
Bishelang Jun's confidence grew, and he followed this voice to strike.
Murong Jiumei's face turned even paler, as this sword sealed all her follow-up moves, aiming for the weakness of her Fossil Power!
Her Fossil Power was not yet strong enough to withstand this sword!
Murong Jiumei was furious, her hands turning into butterflies, attacking again, but Bishelang Jun, under Xiao Ran's guidance, had the upper hand!
Xiao Yu and Tie Xinlan watched in shock. Tie Xinlan swallowed hard and said to Xiao Yu, "If he really is your uncle, what do you have to fear from the Fairy? You could walk across the江湖 with your head held high!"
Xiao Yu, though still smiling, had a look of shock in his eyes: "If I had an uncle like this, it would be a good thing!"
On the side, Gu Renyu, seeing Murong Jiumei unable to defeat Bishelang Jun, was getting anxious and wanted to join in, but he was afraid Murong Jiumei would be unhappy!
Xiao Ran, as if reading his thoughts, said, "If you don't act now, it will be too late! Being so hesitant won't get you a girlfriend!"
Xiao Ran spoke as if he were an expert in romance, completely ignoring the fact that he had been single for decades and had only recently had a fiancée, who was then kicked out.
Gu Renyu's face turned red, and he said, "I apologize!"
Then he stepped forward and shouted, "I apologize!" and threw a punch. The wind from the punch hit Bishelang Jun's face before the punch even arrived!
Bishelang Jun cursed inwardly, one was already too much, and now another one joined in, this was going to kill him!
But he dared not ignore Xiao Ran's instructions, as ignoring them would mean certain death!
The two attacks were like a storm, and Bishelang Jun was like a small boat in the waves, though it seemed a single wave could capsize him, he managed to ride the waves forward!
From the initial fear to the smooth sailing, Bishelang Jun began to ponder and seemed to understand something under Xiao Ran's guidance!
After five hundred moves, Murong Jiumei lightly snorted, her sleeve cut by Bishelang Jun, and Gu Renyu had a strand of hair cut off.
The two retreated from the battle. Murong Jiumei used her "Seven Tricks Sack," but if the two of them could not defeat Bishelang Jun, the Murong and Gu families would lose face!
Crystal-like objects rained down from Murong Jiumei's hand, and Bishelang Jun's soft sword trembled, drawing a circle in the air. The circle, like a whirlpool in the sea, swallowed all the projectiles!
Murong Jiumei was even more shocked. How strong must one's skills and eyesight be to make this person, whom she could easily kill with a palm, defeat her and Gu Renyu together!
Bishelang Jun won a great victory, and even though his true qi was completely drained, he felt an immense sense of satisfaction.
He let out a long cry and knelt before Xiao Ran: "Thank you, Senior, for your guidance..."
Before he could finish, Xiao Ran impatiently said, "I told you, I don't like your clothes, get lost!"
The entire scene was awkward, and everyone felt that this person's actions were unfathomable, and they couldn't guess what he was up to!
Xiao Yu thought Xiao Ran wanted to recruit Bishelang Jun, but he let him go so easily!
Gu Renyu was shocked by Xiao Ran's skills and couldn't speak!
Bishelang Jun immediately ran away, and Murong Jiumei bit her lower lip, unable to say a word, her eyes red, almost crying! She said to Xiao Ran, "You... you humiliate me like this, my Murong family and you..."
She was about to declare that they would be enemies, but Xiao Ran smiled: "One cannot see one's own flaws without experiencing failure a few times!
Young lady, I am helping you!
Your Fossil Power has problems!"
Murong Jiumei was burning with anger, wanting to retort, but as a well-bred young lady, she didn't know how to curse. But when she heard Xiao Ran mention the Fossil Power, her anger subsided!
Even her sisters didn't know about her cultivation of the Fossil Power!
Was this person's insight really so terrifying?
Xiao Ran continued, "I have always heard of the Murong family's great name, and the Nine Beauties of the Murong family are a marvel in the world!
If guests come, wouldn't you invite us in for a sit?"
Murong Jiumei finally composed herself, bowed to Xiao Ran, and said, "I have not yet had the honor of knowing your name, Sir!"
"My name is Xiao Ran!"
...
Murong Jiumei led Xiao Ran, Xiao Yu, and Tie Xinlan into the Murong Manor, not using servants, but serving tea to Xiao Ran herself!
Xiao Ran took a sip, feeling the lingering fragrance, and though he couldn't identify the tea, he knew it wasn't ordinary!
Putting down the teacup, Xiao Ran smiled, "To drink tea made by Murong Jiumei, few in the world have had such an honor!
I am truly honored, but I am a crude person and can't tell what kind of tea it is!"
At this moment, a pleasant female voice sounded from afar, "Murong Jiumei, where are you? Your big sister is here to see you!"
Tie Xinlan's face turned pale upon hearing the voice: "Could this be the Fairy's voice?"
Xiao Yu laughed, "What are you afraid of? With such a powerful uncle, I am not afraid even of the Palace Master of the Yihua Palace!"
Xiao Yu's mind raced, and he had already guessed Xiao Ran's identity many times. He thought the most likely possibility was that Xiao Ran was an associate of the Copper Man who told him about his past in the Valley of Evil!
He wouldn't think someone would do him a favor for no reason.
So he deliberately mentioned the Yihua Palace to see Xiao Ran's reaction!
But Xiao Ran seemed to be savoring the tea, not paying any attention!
Murong Jiumei called out, "Sister Jing, I have distinguished guests, so I cannot get up. Please come over yourself!"
This voice, though not loud, was clear in Zhang Jing's ears, as if someone was whispering in her ear!
Zhang Jing's face changed slightly, "Jiumei's skills have improved even more!"
As she thought, she walked, and when she reached the hall, she immediately saw Xiao Yu and Tie Xinlan.
Zhang Jing gritted her teeth, "Brat, this time you've fallen into my hands..."
Xiao Yu laughed, "If you want to touch me, ask my uncle first!"
Xiao Ran smiled, "Brat, what are you up to?
Little girl, it's been a while, how have you been?"
Seeing Xiao Ran here and with Xiao Yu, Zhang Jing's heart sank! (Everyone knows, my book hasn't been signed yet. I try to write as much as I can in my spare time, hoping it will be recognized! But apparently, the editor doesn't think the book is recognized by the readers yet, so I haven't been able to sign! I hope the readers can give me a hand, click, collect, and recommend. The data will help the editor, and I thank you all in advance!)
