1. First robbery

The news that the daughter of the Flying Cloud Fortress lord had been whipped sent shivers down the spines of the entire martial arts world.

"I heard that Miss Yun was betrothed to the master of Xiaming Manor when they were children. Who is so bold as to dare to hit the future young mistress of the number one manor in the world?"

"Shh—don't you know? The one who hit her is that Master Xia!"

"Yes, yes, I also heard that later, Xiaming Manor gave Feiyun Fortress the sacred medicine Seven-Return Spirit Sand as an apology!"

"That legendary Seven-Return Spirit Sand that can supposedly bring the dead back to life? Good heavens, could it be that Master Xia's whip has nearly ripped half of Miss Yun's life off?"

On a dark and windy night, in the boudoir of the young lady of Feiyun Fortress, a tall and slender figure stood silently before her bed.

Because of the whip marks on her back, Yun Chan could only lie face down on the bed and couldn't sleep very soundly. In her drowsy state, she noticed someone watching her and opened her eyes.

The moment Yun Chan saw the figure in front of the bed, she grabbed a pillow without hesitation and threw it at him—"You damn Xia Yi, coming into my room to catch ghosts in the middle of the night!"

The room was quite dark, devoid of moonlight. The person gently caught the pillow, their tone tinged with surprise: "You recognized me in this darkness?"

Even if you were reduced to ashes, I would still recognize you!

The figure was none other than Xia Yi, the man who had been rumored to have lashed Miss Yun with a whip.

Now that they'd been discovered, the visitor simply blew on a tinderbox to light the lamps in the room. Holding up the candlestick, Master Xia arrogantly raised his chin: "Come, let me see the wound on your back."

As he spoke, his eyes sparkled with a captivating charm, and even the dim candlelight couldn't conceal his alluring beauty, so enchanting that it was simply mesmerizing.

Unfortunately, Yun Chan found this beauty repulsive and unacceptable: "What? If my wounds aren't deep enough, do you want to give me another lash?"

Upon hearing this, the man glanced at her with his beautiful peach blossom eyes: "Still angry? Come to think of it, you brought that whipping on yourself. I wasn't going to hit you, but you threw yourself on that girl."

Listen to that tone—so arrogant, utterly oblivious to the fact that he had hurt her. Yun Chan immediately flew into a rage: "Ji Yue is my girl! Hitting her is hitting me!"

"Hmph, a mere servant doesn't deserve your protection." The culprit scoffed. "You've always been like this since you were little, never learning your lesson no matter how many times you've been wronged."

Yun Chan grew even angrier: "Master Xia came in the middle of the night just to teach me a lesson?"

Upon being asked this, the man's face suddenly turned a strange red, and he awkwardly pulled out a medicine box and tossed it to her: "Here, the best wound medicine in the village."

She couldn't help but sneer, "Master Xia is too kind. He has already given us the Seven-Return Spirit Sand, a sacred medicine. Yun Chan can't accept any more."

"The Seven-Return Spirit Sand was given to you by Steward Li without permission, his only purpose being to save face for your Flying Cloud Fortress. Besides, that medicine is for prolonging life, how could it possibly heal your whip wounds?!" After a pause, the man glanced at her again and added, "This Golden Wound Medicine can regenerate tissue and heal..."

"Scar, if it weren't for the fact that we're childhood sweethearts, why would I have gone through all this trouble to come here so late at night?"

What a fine line: "I'm giving you medicine, it's a huge favor, you should be grateful and accept it if you know what's good for you."

Yun Chan grabbed the medicine box and threw it violently against the foot of the bed: "Childhood sweethearts? What a wonderful childhood sweetheart! When I was seven, you pushed me into the water to laugh at me; when I was eight, you let go of the phoenix I had worked so hard to catch; when I was nine, you tricked me into going to the woods to test my courage..."

He left me behind and ran away...

"Hmph, you're not bad either." When the past came up, Xia Yi's eyes lost their allure. "Didn't you pull me down with you at the last moment when we fell into the water? I let your fish go, and you threw my Azure Phoenix Sword off the cliff. A test of courage..."

When I came back to find you that time, you were ruthless enough to lure me into a hunter's hole, and it took you three whole days to send someone to rescue me..."

These years of resentment would be brought up and counted every time the two argued, and they remembered each other's grievances better than the Three Character Classic.

Finally, Yun Chan took a deep breath and said fiercely, "Take back your lousy medicine and disappear from my sight right now. Otherwise, don't blame me for calling the guards! Ha, the dignified master of Xia Ming Manor, appearing in a woman's boudoir late at night, if word gets out..."

"If word gets out, it seems you'll be the one who suffers," the man interrupted her dismissively, laughing with an air of smug confidence.

Yun Chan laughed as well: "Xia Ming Manor has always prided itself on being the most prestigious and righteous sect in the martial arts world. If word gets out, how good will your reputation be!"

Provoke her? Then let's fight to the death.

Just as the woman was about to gather her inner energy and shout out, Master Xia quickly flew forward and covered her mouth.

I almost forgot, this woman in front of me is no ordinary person. She's absolutely capable of doing something that would inflict eight hundred damage on the enemy while also losing a thousand of her own.

However, the next moment, the guards' shouts rang out from outside—"Assassins!"

No way? Did someone find out after all?

The entire manor seemed to be awakened by the shout, and in an instant, chaos erupted. Master Xia's expression finally lost its composure, and cold sweat broke out on his face, which was as beautiful as the bright moon in the sky.

The next instant, Yun Chan felt a gust of wind sweep past her. When she came to her senses and looked again, the man's figure had vanished without a
