Chapter 14: Heading Towards Tiger Mountain (Part 1)

  Xiao Si quickly opened Wen Er's acupoint seal and said in a low voice, "Our matters can be discussed slowly later, first we need to defeat this evil person!"

  Wan'er grasped the magic sword without making a sound, disregarding the eagle claw that was coming at her with yin and yang energy. She merged with the sword and stabbed it fiercely into her opponent, using a completely reckless and desperate fighting style.

  Yin Shengyang, the number one high-ranking disciple of Eagle Soaring Ancestor, had reached a state of cultivation where he was renowned for his exceptional abilities. Naturally, he wouldn't take Wan'er's skills seriously. With a swift motion, he grasped the hilt of his sword with his eagle claw and shouted: "Let go!"

  Wan'er only felt a surge of unstoppable power, causing her arm to go numb and her chest to feel suffocated. The sword in her hand flew out with a "chā" sound, nailing itself into the beam above.

  Her delicate body rushed forward with unstoppable momentum, directly crashing into Yang's embrace.

  Xiao Si's eyes were quick and her hands were fast. She opened her arms from behind, hugged Wan'er's delicate body tightly, and pulled back with force: "Come back!"

  "Thud!" The two of them fell back onto the bed like rolling pumpkins.

  Yin Sheng Yang didn't bother with a cold smile and took a step forward, ready to capture Wan Er and Xiao Si alive.

  But an inexplicable thing happened, when he lifted his foot and took a step forward, the space around him rippled slightly, this step unknowingly went astray, not only did it fail to get closer to the bedside, but instead moved further and further away from Xiao Si and Wan'er.

  "What's going on with the Qimen Dunjia formation?!" Yin Sheng Yang was slightly startled, and hastily stretched out his spiritual awareness to investigate the traces of the array pattern symbols fluctuating around him. With a flick of his arms, he flew up again and pounced towards the bedside.

  But this time the situation became even more bizarre. What looked like a distance of less than ten feet seemed as insurmountable as a sky-high chasm, as if his body had been firmly trapped by an invisible space.

  Xiao Si looked at Yin Shengyang's ferocious appearance in mid-air and laughed: "On my one mu three fen land, a dragon must coil around, a tiger must lie down, and a toad must squat for me!"

  He was just self-satisfied when he heard Yuanyu's face flushed and whispered: "Let go quickly!"

  Xiao Siyi was startled, and only then did he realize that his two hands were somehow crossed over Wan'er's chest. He didn't dare to look at Wan'er's expression at this time, and quickly let go of her hands.

  Just as the two were entangled, a loud "bang" sounded in their ears, and Yin Sheng Yang burst out with several consecutive shots, finally smashing a big hole in the wall and jumping out.

  At this time, the alarm sounded outside the courtyard, and even if Yin Shengyang was arrogant, he didn't dare to resist the heroes from all sides with his own strength. He turned back and glanced at Xiao Si: "Little beast, temporarily lend me your head, I'll come back to take it another day!" After speaking, he didn't dare to linger, and launched his family's "Eagle Soaring Ten Thousand Miles" movement technique to fly away with the wind.

  Xiao Si had never taken Yin Shengyang's intimidation to heart, anyway, within a month or two, Chi Zunxia would definitely return and take him to Jiangnan to find his master, Xie Yue Zhenren. If Yin Shengyang didn't mind going on a trip to Jiangnan with no return, Xiao Si would personally introduce him to Chi Zunxia and Xie Yue Zhenren.

  He jumped off the bed to receive the law array, and far away, he heard Chu Lie's loud shout: "Where is the little thief going?" Immediately after, there were several more sounds of either majestic or urgent whistling, obviously the heroes had discovered Yin Shengyang's trail and were organizing a siege.

  "Xiao Si brothers, are you alright?" Along with the anxious and worried tone, Geng Nan Yi rushed over first. Behind him, apart from Geng Shao Hua's couple, there was also a white-haired and majestic old man, who was none other than Long Zai Tian, the master of Wodragon Mountain Villa.

  Xiao Si glanced at Long Zhaoyuan lying on the ground and smiled: "Thanks for your concern, old man. I'm fine, but this young master's situation is a bit tricky."

  Geng Nan Yi was shocked, and before Long Zaitian could react, he quickly used his palm to lightly pat the chest of Long Chuiyuan twice, releasing the meridian seal that had been restricting his movements.

  Geng Shaohua looked at Wanyu in surprise and said: "How did you and Zhao Yuan end up in Fourth Uncle's room?"

  Xiao Si's face was calm, but he was somewhat nervous inside, and hastily said: "Wan'er young lady came to invite me to drink in the front hall, as for this Dragon Young Master..."

  "Grandfather, kill this little thief quickly!" Long Chuo-yuan's face turned iron-blue with rage as he glared at Xian Xiao-si. Before he could finish speaking, he shouted: "I saw him pinning down my cousin Wan-er on the bed with his hands and feet, trying to take advantage of her, and even held a knife to her neck, forcing me to leave!"

  The dragon in the sky raised its white eyebrows and shot a glance at Xiao Si's face, asking in a deep voice: "Is this true?!"

  Xiao Si was chilled to the bone by the old man's sharp gaze, and immediately regretted saying: "Why didn't I remind that guy surnamed Yin to take this little white face away earlier?"

  He knew that the most crucial thing in the confrontation between the two parties was the testimony of the third person present. No matter how many words he said, they couldn't compare to one word from Ruan Er, now whether he was a hero saving someone or an overbearing king drawing his bow, it all depended on this little girl's conscience being good or bad.

  "He turned his head towards Wan'er and said: 'Miss Wan'er, should you speak or should I?'"

  Wan'er fell silent for a moment, then spoke softly: "You speak." Her eyes were cast downward, but no one could discern her expression.

  Xiao Si's spirits lifted, knowing he was saved. Others didn't know the underlying mystery, but he knew that Yuanyuan's response was equivalent to handing over the entire matter for him to handle, and he no longer had to worry about her stance on the issue.

  Xiao Si couldn't help but admire the classic quote from Old Man Li: "Some things are done but cannot be said."

  He glanced at Long Chouyuan and said slowly, "Young Master Long, you're not right. I and Miss Wan'er risked our lives to rescue you from that demon's hands. You don't even show gratitude, but instead, you're still spewing venom? You keep calling me a lecher, as an elder, I won't hold it against you, let's just laugh it off. But Miss Wan'er is still a young lady, pure and innocent. If your words get out, how will she learn to be a person?"

  "He shook his head and said, 'You and Wanyu are really close relatives, even I, an outsider, can't bear to look at or listen to this.'"

  Long Chouyuan's anger rose to seven orifices and smoke was produced. He pointed at Xiao Si with his fingers: "You're talking nonsense!"

  Geng Nan said in a low coughing voice: "Zhao Yuan, wait for Xiao Si to finish speaking, and it's not too late for you to speak up."

  He is steady in temperament and restrained by Long Tian's face, so he doesn't say much, but in his heart, he is very displeased with Long Chao Yuan.

  Don't mention that Geng Nan Yi didn't believe that Xiao Si would be so bold as to openly humiliate Wen Er in his own mansion. Even if such a thing really happened, wouldn't it concern the reputation of the girl's family? How could he be so unscrupulous and unreserved in public?

  "Just now, Long Gongzi suddenly rushed in and scolded me and Wan'er without asking anything, saying that we were a lone man and woman who didn't know shame... Alas, I don't need to say more about those unpleasant words. In short, he somehow misunderstood me and Wan'er."

  "I revealed my identity to Dragon Young Master, explaining and clarifying with a bitter mouth, but he didn't listen at all and drew his sword to chop me. Just then, the disciple of Eagle Yang, the old demon from Beimang Mountain, killed his way in and knocked down Dragon Young Master with just two moves. I and Wen'er rushed forward to rescue..."

  Long Tian interrupted, "Fourth Brother, you said that the newcomer only used two moves to defeat Zhao Yuan?"

  Xiao Si was incredibly clever and immediately guessed the meaning of Long's words. He sneered, "Old Master Long, have you ever heard that a real man fights with wits, not strength? I had already set up a 'Four Symbols Chaotic Sky Array' inside the house, and with the help of the array's power and Wan'er's family heirloom swordsmanship, we instantly defeated the demon king, who became disoriented and fled in panic after crashing through the wall."

  The dragon in heaven saw the big hole on the wall early and nodded: "It's possible that there are a few points."

  Long Chouyuan hastily said: "Grandfather, this little thief is talking nonsense, you mustn't believe him. Cousin, why aren't you saying anything?"

  Wan'er lowered her head and said softly: "Big brother, let's just stop here."

  Long Chouyuan was taken aback, and angrily said: "He obviously had ill intentions, if I hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid your chastity would not be preserved. How can this matter be dropped like this? Cousin, you are being too lenient and indulgent!"

  Mrs. Geng frowned, feeling that her nephew was making a bit of a fuss. She knew Xiao Si's character well. That day, Yuanner wanted him to stay in the house alone for a while, but this young man didn't even want to agree, and later he even asked himself to guard the door, how could he be a lustful scoundrel?

  Besides, Wan'er had already given him face, but Long Chuyuan still didn't know how to advance or retreat, and had lost all sense of propriety, completely losing face for the Long family.

  Although she was the aunt of Long Chuyuan, after all, her heart leaned more towards her daughter. She sighed and said: "Chu Yuan, this young fourth uncle is the sworn brother of Chi Da Xia, the disciple of Kunlun Yao Tai Palace. He had also risked his life to save your cousin Yuanyuan's life. You didn't know about these things, so it's no wonder you misunderstood. Now that everything has been clarified, why don't you apologize to Fourth Uncle?"

  "What's going on? Do I have to apologize to this little thief?" Long Chuyuan angrily shouted: "Aunt, why are you helping him and not me?"

  Xiao Si's heart was relieved, and he thought to himself: "It's better for me to quit while I'm ahead. If I continue to stir up trouble, who knows how it'll end? Moreover, that old man with the surname Long may not speak much, but he's extremely formidable, far surpassing his useless grandson. Who knows if he's already held a grudge against me?"

  "Never mind, we're all on the same side, why make a big fuss over a small misunderstanding?"

  Long Chuyuan saw that this little boy had taken advantage of him and was still pretending to be clever, he was truly furious, and rushed forward, roaring: "Little rascal, I swear not to coexist with you!"

  Geng Shaohua stepped forward, grabbed Long Chouyuan's arm and said: "Xianzhong, you keep accusing Xiao Si Shu of being a lecher, what do you want to do with Wan'er? I advise you to calm down first, don't mention this again in the future!"

  The dragon nodded in the sky, saying: "Zhao Yuan, I'll accompany you back to the house to rest first." He then bowed his fist at Geng Nan Yi and Xiao Si, saying: "Brother Geng, Brother Xiao, it was Zhao Yuan's momentary rashness. I apologize on his behalf."

  At this time, Chu Lie stood outside the door and said: "Old Dragon, it's all just children being petty, you don't have to take it seriously. But as for Little Fourth Brother, I dare to guarantee with my head that he is not that kind of person!"

  Geng Nan Yi turned around and saw a blood stain on Chu Lie's body, and exclaimed in surprise: "You're injured?"

  Chu Lie smiled carelessly: "I was cut by that kid's eagle wing knife, but he also suffered a blow from me, and the taste is even worse."

  Geng Nan's expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but exclaim: "If not for the fourth brother's bravery and wisdom, we would have been in big trouble tonight."

  Everyone who heard this thought it was reasonable. Suppose Yuanyuan and Long Chuyuan both fell into the hands of that demon, tonight is still unknown how to end.

  This young Fourth Brother does not dwell on his achievements, nor is he arrogant. He also doesn't hold grudges and sacrifices himself to save Long Chao Yuan. With such a broad-minded and righteous spirit, he is indeed worthy of being the sworn second brother of the Red Venerable Knight.
