The sky over the rivers and lakes is very clear - Chapter 235
Chen Yilang laughed and said, "Second brother is absolutely right. I've been too polite!"
The Taoist priest asked, "Speaking of which, Brother Chen, you've always been cautious in your actions, so how did you manage to offend the two great families of Jietianshui Island and Fengxue City all at once?"
Chen Yilang said indignantly, "It's all because of that stinky woman who offered a huge reward for the head of Young Master Xuese of Maple Snow City. I don't care about the gold and silver, but I heard that the bounty also includes the Pangu Heavenly Book. Who in the martial arts world wouldn't be tempted by that manual? I never expected to get nothing but trouble instead of the reward. Not only did I offend two great families, but that damn Heavenly Book is a complete fake. She just tricked everyone into risking their lives for her!"
The Taoist priest comforted him, saying, "My brother and I were outside the pass at the time, and by the time we received the letter, it was too late. Otherwise, even knowing that Young Master Xue Se was not someone to be trifled with, we would have gotten involved and provoked him!"
Zhu Huihui's heart skipped a beat when she heard Feng Xuese's name.
In an instant, a carefree figure filled my small heart, with that cool face and warm eyes...
These past few days, she had often thought of Feng Xuese, but whenever the thought arose, she would forcefully suppress it in various ways, unwilling to think about it deeply. Now, however, the words of these people immediately brought her back to the Sanjie Temple on that stormy night. Recalling the scene of herself clinging to Feng Xuese's back, the two of them, one blind and one lame, charging through enemy lines in the rain, she couldn't help but feel a little lost in thought.
At this moment, she kept thinking about how almost a month had passed since she left. Where was the hero now? Had his eyes been healed? Had he missed her as much as she missed him…
Suddenly, a sweet laugh brought her back to her senses, but she had already missed a large part of what was said.
Song Xiaobei clenched her fist and playfully punched Chen Yilang lightly, laughing, "I knew it! The 'Three Fiends of Xuan Yin' brothers are unparalleled in martial arts. With the help of the three of you, there's no enemy we can't defeat! These five troublesome fools were taken down in no time by the three of you!"
Although she was beautiful, she and her husband usually robbed and plundered, so she naturally had a bit of the heroic spirit of a woman from the underworld. But somehow, when she said this, her cheeks were like peach blossoms, her eyes were like dripping water, and her voice was so sweet and seductive that it melted people's bones. It was extremely hot and alluring.
Chen Yilang and the "Three Fiends of Xuan Yin" were both stunned. Suddenly, their lower abdomens felt hot and swollen. With a "drip", the dark-skinned man's saliva dripped down and landed on the table.
Everyone felt a little awkward, but the Taoist priest coughed and defused the situation, saying, "The weather is so nice today, haha, hahaha!"
"Yeah! That's great! That's fucking great! Haha!" Chen Yilang chuckled dryly a few times. He wondered to himself, why does my wife look so good today?
The pale-faced young man with dark circles under his eyes was the first to recover. He coughed and said, "Speaking of which, the weather today is indeed very nice—"
Suddenly, she leaped out of the window, and a silver makeup needle, about a foot long, silently pierced Zhu Huihui's brow.
While listening to the conversation, Zhu Huihui had unknowingly walked very close to the window. Now, caught off guard, there was no way to avoid it—in fact, with her skills, even if they told her where to stab, she wouldn't be able to dodge it—in shock, she leaned back, and her tattered straw hat rolled far off her head, revealing a beautiful and refined face. Although she was terrified and her face was covered in dirt, her natural beauty was still undeniable.
The silver needle followed closely, already piercing the center of the brow, but suddenly stopped.
However, Zhu Huihui's brow was already pierced, and a small bead of blood seeped from her skin, like a cinnabar mole. After a pause, the bead of blood slid down her delicate nose, leaving a thin red line, not gruesome, but adding a touch of allure to her pretty face.
The pale-faced man, who had been filled with murderous intent, suddenly became extremely lewd. His eyes narrowed into slits as he slowly withdrew the needle, stuck out his tongue, and licked away a smear of red blood from the needle tip. He smiled wickedly and said, "So sweet!"
He glanced at Zhu Huihui and said lewdly, "What a sweet girl!"
Zhu Huihui sat on the ground, and couldn't help but shiver when she was looked at by that gaze. She had never been near any insects since she was a child, but this time she deeply experienced the disgusting and cold feeling of venomous snakes and insects crawling on her body.
Several other people followed and came out of the window, surrounding Zhu Huihui.
Zhu Huihui gave a wry smile to the "colluding scoundrels": "How have you two been?" In her fear, knowing that she couldn't escape, she disregarded her own life and death and started to speak eloquently, just like in the stories she had heard!
The "colluding" group paused, taken aback. Although the girl's face was unfamiliar, her voice sounded very familiar. They immediately remembered the dark-skinned girl from Sanjie Temple who had been with Feng Xuese, and were shocked. "Not good!" They drew their weapons and searched around, fearing that Feng Xuese might be nearby.
The Taoist priest asked, "Brother Chen, who is this girl?"
The burly man asked, "Third brother, what's going on?"
Chen Yilang said, "She's the girl who was walking with Young Master Xue Se!" Although her appearance was different from when they first met, he would never mistake her! Because there would never be another woman in the world with such a self-righteous and nonchalant attitude!
On the other side, the pretty boy stared at Zhu Huihui with a wicked look on his face and slowly said, "This girl drugged us!"
"What?" The others panicked and became wary, fearing that Feng Xuese would appear, while they all circulated their qi to check their bodies. But apart from their bodies getting hotter and hotter and their desires growing stronger, there were no other abnormalities.
The pretty boy stopped the panicked men: "Brothers, don't worry about it, it's just a love potion!"
He was originally a womanizer, and to make his "work" easier, he carried several kinds of aphrodisiacs with him. Therefore, he was more experienced with these things than others, and as soon as he felt something was wrong with his body, he immediately realized what kind of drug he had been given.
Fortunately, the Snake Envoy was an expert in poisons, with superb pharmaceutical skills. The medicine in that box was colorless, odorless, and tasteless; it dissolved completely in a little wine, leaving no trace. Otherwise, that pretty boy would have detected it the moment he tasted it.
Because this medicine originated from the Serpent Envoy, its effects are far more potent than other similar drugs. At this moment, all five people, regardless of gender, felt their blood surging, as if their bodies were on fire, wishing they could immediately pour ice water over their heads, or…
Fortunately, their skills weren't weak, and although their lust was burning, they still managed to maintain a sliver of their sanity. However, in their hearts, they were all cursing this girl for being utterly despicable! This young girl, quite pretty, was she stupid, or was she just malicious? She poisoned someone with an aphrodisiac!
Having not seen the terrifying Snow-White Young Master appear for some time, Chen Yilang felt slightly relieved. Seeing the pale-faced man's lewd expression, he understood his weakness, coughed, and chuckled, "Third Brother, this girl belongs to that Maple Snow-Colored one. Let's keep her and negotiate with that Snow-White Young Master..."
The pretty boy suddenly turned his head, his gaze fixed on Chen Yilang with extreme coldness: "Brother Chen, is it because you want to curry favor with that Snow-White Young Master that you're preventing me from having my way?"
Chen Yilang's heart skipped a beat. These "Three Fiends of Xuan Yin"—the eldest, a Taoist priest, was bloodthirsty; the second, a burly man, was greedy for money; and the third, this pretty boy, was lecherous. Each of them possessed unique martial arts skills and was extremely dangerous. It was simply not worth offending three friends for this girl.
Song Xiaobei shared the same thought as him and giggled as she smoothed things over: "Not at all! He meant that this girl drugged us, but little did she know that the drug would end up on her too. Isn't that just reaping what she sowed?"
The lecherous man's gaze, like that of a venomous snake, slowly circled Song Xiaobei's legs, abdomen, chest, and face: "If you're interested, sister-in-law, why not..." He chuckled, not even glancing at Chen Yilang, and strode towards Zhu Huihui.
Zhu Huihui was completely confused. When she saw that disgusting pretty boy walking towards her, she thought he was going to kill her. She was terrified. On a whim, she shouted, "Young Master Xue Se, help me!"
Having overheard the enemy's conversation, she knew they were terrified of Feng Xuese. In desperation, she used his name as her own. She usually addressed him as "Great Hero" to his face and "Master" behind his back, but there were thousands of heroes in the world, and she was afraid those few wouldn't know which one she was referring to, so she directly used Feng Xuese's reputation in the martial arts world.
The men were indeed startled and drew their weapons, preparing to fight back.
Zhu Huihui jumped up and ran away as fast as she could!
Forced by Feng Xuese, she had at least practiced a few moves of lightness skill, and she was surprisingly fast when she ran—but this speed was relative to herself. In the eyes of those martial arts practitioners, she was not much faster than a tortoise!
The men realized they'd been tricked and gave chase, shouting. The lecherous man, with his superb lightness skill, leaped a few times and blocked her path, smirking wickedly, "Others may fear your Snow-White Young Master, but I don't!"
Zhu Huihui turned and dashed off, yelling as she ran, "I'm your grandma, aren't you scared?!"
The lecherous man wasn't angry at all, and laughed, "Alright! It's not hard for me to be afraid of you, as long as you..." He uttered a string of lewd words.
Zhu Huihui was no longer angry.
