Iron Man and Darling - 9 (Full Text)

Ji Cuiyu said, "Don't worry, after the big bamboo forest ahead, there's a small town. You can stop at an inn or continue your journey there, but there won't be any more for the next three days; it's all mountains then."
Che Zhan said, "We're not leaving tonight. Don't forget to bring some provisions tomorrow."
Ji Cuiyu said, "Stop at an inn tonight? Ah! You're up to something again. Never mind, I can't keep you company alone."
Che Zhan said softly, "I'll know my limits."
Ji Cuiyu spat and said, "I won't! Unless you don't drink, you'll never know your limits after you drink."
Che Zhan chuckled and said, "We'll eat at the inn, no alcohol, is that not enough?"
Ji Cuiyu glanced at him and smiled, "Qi..." "I knew it wasn't good when my sister asked me to come with you."
While traversing the mountain path, Che Zhan suddenly said, "Someone is watching us."
Ji Cuiyu asked, "Who could it be? Could it be the Arctic Sect? No way, the chaos in Bagua Valley is no small matter; they won't send anyone to watch you for now, unless it's the Southwest martial arts world."
Che Zhan said, "Who cares who it is? Let's go into town and be careful tonight." Che Zhan's hearing had never been wrong, but this time, the person watching him wasn't malicious. It was Xuanfeng, the girl he had seen before. After Che Zhan and Ji Cuiyu entered the mountain town, she immediately ran along a farm road and soon met Miaopin.
"How about that? I told you so! Don't get within twenty zhang." Miaopin said with a hint of self-righteousness.
Xuanfeng said, "Am I blaming you? He's too clever. Since we can't hear their conversation, let's go back and report to Miss."
The two ran straight towards a mountain peak. When they reached the foot of the mountain, four burly men greeted them, saying, "Miss is meditating; please don't go up yet."
Xuanfeng asked, "Where are the Eighteen Arhats?"
One of the four men replied, "Six are guarding the back mountain, six are patrolling the left side, and six are patrolling the right side."
Miaopin asked, "How long has Miss been meditating?"
The burly man said, "She started meditating after Miss sent you away."
Xuanfeng said, "Then she's awake now; we can go up! Great Vajra..." "Go and inform the Eighteen Arhats that Miss is setting off immediately. You four will follow in four groups, ready to obey orders at any time."
The burly man asked, "Where are we going? It's completely dark."
Xuanfeng replied, "No need to ask where we're going. Just follow Miss and watch her movements."
The two women immediately went up the mountain. Miaopin walked along and asked, "Is Miss still keeping an eye on that guy surnamed Che?"
Xuanfeng said, "Miss has changed. Haven't you noticed? She insists that Che Zhan was the one who saved her."
Miaopin said, "I don't believe it. Che Zhan's martial arts skills are not famous in the Central Plains, but the word 'romantic' is heard every day among his companions."
At this moment, a girl in purple stood on the mountaintop. She was of moderate build. Wow! So beautiful! How can one describe her? "The moon hides its face and the flowers blush"? "The fish sinks and the geese fall"? That's too common. Xi Shi from the book, Chang'e from the legend? But they lack her heroic spirit. At this moment, Xuanfeng and Miaopin appeared before her. The girl asked, "You're back."
"Miss! We're back. I'm afraid we've disappointed you." Miaopin spread her hands.
The girl asked, "What is it?"
Xuanfeng said, "We can only hide and peek from twenty feet away. He's too clever; even then, he'll probably notice us." The
girl nodded and said, "It's already proven that his internal strength has reached an incredible level. Without profound internal strength, with your lightness skills and agility, you wouldn't be detected within ten feet."
Miaopin said, "He used to have four beauties with him, but now there's only one."
The girl smiled and said, "That's because she's on business. Next time, I want you to show yourselves and approach him, to show friendliness, and to try to build a relationship." Xuanfeng
exclaimed in surprise, "Miss, why is that? Before we came to the Central Plains, didn't you tell us not to make friends with anyone?"
"Yes! Miss, you've changed." Miaopin chimed in.
The girl said, "No, there's an exception for Che Zhan, and an exception for his friends too. But you still have a mission."
Xuanfeng exclaimed, "To find out his background."
The girl said, "I'm afraid you won't be able to find out his background. Don't try to probe him anymore. If he sees through your thoughts, it will cause misunderstandings." "It would be terrible if he thought your approach was hypocritical. I want you to approach him so you can pay attention to his eyes."
Xuanfeng didn't understand and asked blankly, "What's strange about his eyes?"
The girl smiled and said, "That's right, there is something strange about them. You may not see it, but you'll have a strange feeling, your heart will race. It's not fear, it's confusion, but it's not possession. After spending time with him, you won't want to leave him."
Miaopin said, "What kind of nonsense is this?"
The girl smiled sweetly and said, "You'll understand in the future. That's why all the beautiful women around him are so devoted to him. But he himself doesn't even know it. More importantly, his temperament and his personality are all captivating, even to men."
Xuanfeng said, "Miss, you..."
The girl said, "What about me? You're saying this before I've even gotten close to him? No, he approached me, sat very close to me, and his hands even touched my lower abdomen. Let me tell you, I'm certain that he saved me. He gave me his life."
"Wow! It's getting more and more incredible." "Xuanfeng exclaimed in surprise, then asked, "He gave you his life?"
The girl replied, "If he hadn't saved me with his own life-saving pill, I might not be alive today."
Miaopin said, "The man surnamed Che has such heroic spirit? He actually sacrificed himself for a complete stranger?"
The girl said, "This is what a true hero is, and it's the first major thing I've done since coming to the Central Plains. You know, I am Han Chinese. People need to return to their roots, especially those who have wandered far from home. They need to find their roots, and I am no exception. Xuanfeng, Miaopin, you are also Han Chinese. The three of us are all orphans, and we thirst for roots more than others." The girl's words deeply moved Xuanfeng and Miaopin, and tears welled up in their eyes without them even realizing it. The girl herself also had tears in her eyes.

[Chapter Seven] A Chance Encounter with the

Blood Dragon Cup After a long while, the girl sighed, "Let's go down the mountain! Let's get ahead of Che Zhan. I know he's looking for the Yinshan Twin Eagles to retrieve the Blood Dragon Cup for his friend. We'll act in secret for Che Zhan."
"Miss, didn't you want us to approach Che Zhan?" Xuanfeng asked.
The girl said, "That can't be rushed. You have to have the opportunity and act naturally. By the way, there's been some news recently."
Xuanfeng asked, "Have the Eight Detectives returned from Rakshasa?"
The girl replied, "Six have returned, and I've reassigned them to various parts of the Central Plains."
Miaopin asked, "What news?"
The girl solemnly replied, "The Eight Goddesses of Rakshasa, the Western Rakshasa Star, and the Black Hand God of Slaughter have all entered the Central Plains. The other two Detectives are still in the Eastern Frontier without any news, but they should be returning soon."
Xuanfeng asked, "Miss, you said that this woman and two men are the strongest experts in all of Rakshasa, is that true?"
The girl replied, "I've fought them all. Except for the masked old man I encountered in Bagua Valley, in terms of martial arts, they are the strongest I've met, especially the 'Eight Goddesses of Rakshasa,' Aishan. Her Ice Soul Blade is incredibly fast."
Miaopin asked, "Miss, you didn't decide a winner?"
The girl laughed, "You really are persistent. After three thousand moves, she suddenly stopped. It turns out her little white ape disappeared."
Xuanfeng exclaimed in alarm, "She's too strong! She can fight Miss for three thousand moves. If she joins forces with Xiluo Shaxing and Black Hand Killing God this time when we enter the Central Plains, Miss, you must be careful! "
The girl said, “There are dozens of countries in the entire Rakshasa realm, and they are not from the same faction at all. ‘Western Rakshasa Star’ Stora is the number one martial arts master in the nine Western Rakshasa kingdoms; ‘Black Hand Killer God’ Fox Sko is the number one martial arts master in the fifteen Northern and Southern Rakshasa kingdoms; ‘Eight Rakshasa Goddess’ Aishan has no faction, she is a wandering figure, just like me, going wherever she pleases, and no one can stop her. On the contrary, Aishan looks down on Stora and Fox Sko! I think there is a sense of heroism among them.”
Xuanfeng asked, “Miss, what do you think of me and A-Miao joining forces to deal with ‘Eight Rakshasa Goddess’ Aishan? Is there any hope of victory?”
The girl said, “No, but we can drag it out for three or four thousand moves. Apart from her swordsmanship, I think she has some tricks up her sleeve. I can see that there are some unorthodox methods in her skills, but she didn’t use them in front of me, which shows that she has worthy opponents.”
Xuanfeng asked, “Miss, you can also defeat ‘Western Rakshasa Star’ Stora and ‘Black Hand Killer God’ Fox Sko, right?”
The girl nodded and said, "I've fought them both, but those two are extremely treacherous, and I don't want to fight them for long." Suddenly
, a burly man came up and said, "Miss, a thatched hut has been set up in the valley ahead. Please rest there."
The girl waved her hand and said, "Great Vajra, thank you! Go and inform the Eighteen Arhats that everyone should rest tonight. If there are any villages or towns nearby, go and drink. You don't need to patrol at night, but don't go alone; you must be in at least three people."
The burly man bowed and said, "We have bought wine and food and prepared them for you, Miss."
Xuanfeng said, "Then you can go."
After the burly man left, Miaopin smiled and said, "Miss, you taught him the Vajra Formation, and it seems he has mastered it completely. I wonder how the Eighteen Arhats Formation is going?"
The girl smiled and said, "They are both loyal and hardworking. In Bagua Valley, they fully utilized their abilities. Bagua Valley has many people and great strength. Without these two formations, they would not have been able to win at all." Upon arriving at the thatched
hut, they saw that pine resin torches were already lit, illuminating the hut brightly. A table and stools, seemingly brought from somewhere by villagers, though old, showed the men's respect for the young woman. Food was laid out on the table, still steaming. Xuanfeng laughed, "This area is indeed desolate; the things they found are too poor."
The young woman replied, "In the wilderness, what more can be said? They've done their best."
Xuanfeng said, "Miss, you treat them like family. Can others do that? They treat you like a goddess."
Miaopin said, "Miss, after you finish eating, meditate. Tomorrow we'll find someone to borrow a house for you to bathe and change."
The young woman laughed, "I'm afraid these next few days won't be easy. There are mountain springs in the wild, but I dare not."
Xuanfeng said, "We have many men. Tomorrow, tell the Eighteen Arhats to send a few to take furniture. Buy basins, buckets, curtains, and everything else, even bowls and chopsticks." The young woman chuckled, "
It would be best to buy a house and take it with you. Really, don't cause them trouble. These days are rare, why bother? If you want to enjoy life, what's the point of wandering the martial world? I'm gradually getting used to life in the wild."
Miao Pin said, "That's right! This is the southwestern border region. Once we get to the interior, things will be much better. We'll have plenty of gold and silver, no worries about not having a good life."
"Ah Miao, you're wrong! We're not here for enjoyment, we're here to be chivalrous. Our gold and silver are for saving people, not for ourselves," Xuan Feng said righteously.
The young woman smiled, "Use what you need, don't waste it. If you have good food, clothing, and lodging, I won't stop you."
Xuan Feng asked, "Miss, when will we transport the treasury silver of the Southern Luo tycoon to the Central Plains?"
The young woman replied, "We'll transport it after we find a suitable location and build our manor. There are over a dozen large chests of gold and silver jewelry. It's not as easy as just ordering it. I've long heard of the scenic beauty of West Lake; I'd like to build a manor there. Do you agree?"
Xuanfeng was overjoyed and said, "Whatever you say is fine, why ask us? I really want to go to West Lake immediately, I've heard Suzhou is also nice." Miaopin
said, "Above is heaven, below are Suzhou and Hangzhou, I wonder what they are really like?"
The girl smiled and said, "Miaopin! I think you seem to be obsessed. I might not even build a manor in Hangzhou's West Lake. Who can be sure what the future holds?"
After the meal, just as the master and servant were about to rest, a shrewd man in his forties hurriedly came to the thatched cottage and said respectfully, "Miss! Zhao Jiatian has returned."
The girl smiled and said, "There's news again, come in." The
shrewd man entered the thatched cottage and bowed, saying, "Miss, Prime Minister Kobdo and Princess Harar have arrived in the southwest. Wan Baitong, a wealthy man from the Central Plains, has also come with his inner and outer stewards. The Arctic Sect has sent a large number of experts. In short, they are here to seize the Blood Dragon Cup." "
The girl sighed, "The Blood Dragon Cup is merely an antique jade cup presented as tribute to the court by the people of Jiaozhi. Why would it attract such fierce competition among martial arts tycoons? Wan Baitong is a different story, though; he's a gold and silver enthusiast, and the Arctic Sect aspires to dominate the martial arts world. It doesn't make sense for him to want the Blood Dragon Cup."
Xuanfeng asked, "Could there be some secret hidden in the Blood Dragon Cup?"
The girl replied, "The item belongs to the people of Jiaozhi. If it contained a significant secret, they would never have presented it as tribute."
The burly man said, "If a treasure isn't of great importance to the martial arts world, no matter how valuable it is, it won't be valued. I suggest you keep an eye on it, Miss."
The girl said, "You rushed back to deliver this message in the dead of night; you've worked so hard. Go and rest; I'll keep an eye on things."
The burly man added, "Rumors are circulating that one of the Twin Eagles has been killed, the other's whereabouts are a mystery, and the three Rakshasa warriors have appeared on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau."
The girl exclaimed in surprise, "Aishan, Stola, and Foxco arrived so quickly; they're probably here for the Blood Dragon Cup too! Alright! Go!" "Be careful in all actions. Also, inform the Eighteen Arhats and the Four Vajras. Do not fight with anyone without my orders."
After the burly man acknowledged and withdrew, Xuanfeng said, "Miss, this is going to be interesting."
The girl laughed, "Nobody knows what kind of person Shuang'e is, or what the Blood Dragon Cup looks like. Who saw one of Shuang'e killed? People in the martial world are unpredictable and cannot be trusted. In my opinion, it is impossible for one of Shuang'e to be killed. When you meet Che Zhan, test his opinion and examine his understanding."
Miaopin said, "It's past midnight! Miss, please meditate."
At daybreak, Che Zhan happened to be passing by the foot of the mountain with Ji Cuiyu. They were talking all the way and had no idea that there were people on the mountain. Ji Cuiyu said to Che Zhan, "Ah Zhan, do you believe what those people in the living room were saying?"
Che Zhan said indifferently, "Unless someone who has actually seen one of Shuang'e tells me, not a single word of what those people say over tea or wine is reliable." "Shuang'e is no ordinary person. To steal treasures in the capital city, a place teeming with experts, they must be quite formidable. Leaving aside their martial arts skills, I'd place them among the best in terms of intelligence and action. However, I have been paying attention to their mention of the Rakshasa people."
Ji Cuiyu said, "In the north, there are many Rakshasa people both inside and outside the Great Wall." She wasn't surprised, adding, "There are still quite a few Rakshasa residents in the Sichuan-Kang area, and countless itinerant merchants. Why are you so concerned?"
Che Zhan said, "What are Rakshasa men and women doing in the Southern Frontier? We don't speak the language. Are they just sightseeing? The Southern Frontier doesn't have any particularly famous scenic spots. If you don't believe me, just wait and see. We'll inevitably run into them sooner or later."
Ji Cuiyu said, "Unless they were hired by the Arctic Sect with a large sum of money, we won't have any conflict with them. By the way, the Arctic Sect leader, Gu Bufan, might actually hire Rakshasa experts for his own use." "
Che Zhan suddenly asked, 'Do you know where the Arctic Sect's secret cave is?'
Ji Cuiyu shook her head and said, 'You think it's near Bagua Valley? No, I heard the main headquarters is in Jinshan, and the temporary headquarters, also called the Forward Headquarters, is located in the Qilian Mountains. I don't know the location of the secret cave, but if it's not in the Forward Headquarters, it's in the Jinshan Headquarters.'
Che Zhan nodded, looked ahead, and asked, 'What mountain is that?'"
Ji Cuiyu discerned the direction and laughed, "This small mountain peak is nameless in the martial arts world. The locals call it Wutong Ridge. It belongs to the Lou Mountain Range because it connects to Dading City in the north, Qianxi in the east, Nayong in the west, Zhijin in the middle, and Puding in the south. It truly connects five places."
Che Zhan laughed, "You really are the Southwest Connector. Adding that makes it Liutong Ridge."
Ji Cuiyu spat, "I'm not a road."
Che Zhan was about to tease her when he suddenly became serious and said, "Watch out for that middle-aged man ahead. No! There are two. There's another one at the bend ahead, and he's turned onto the other side of the bend now."
Ji Cuiyu asked, "What's wrong with him?"
Che Zhan said, "He touched his face twice."
Ji Cuiyu laughed, "Oh dear, that's wiping away sweat."
Che Zhan said, "No! He's tidying his face."
Ji Cuiyu exclaimed in surprise, "That middle-aged man?..."
"By the way, he's in disguise, maybe not very well. He lacks confidence, so he's developed the habit of constantly adjusting his appearance," Che Zhan said confidently. He added, "Hurry up and catch up."
Ji Cuiyu glanced back unintentionally and saw five or six burly men. She pulled Che Zhan and said, "That's right! These martial arts figures suddenly appeared here. Ah Zhan, could we be surrounded by the Arctic Sect?"
Che Zhan looked back and laughed, "The people behind us have a different aura. They're not from the Arctic Sect. If they were hostile to us, they would have already taken up arms. Look at them, walking together, chatting and laughing, without any hostility. Ah Yu, you're not experienced enough in the martial arts world. What I'm saying is based on experience. You need to learn more."
“I wouldn’t know anything about these little details. You’re quite clever, aren’t you?”
The two had just turned the corner when they suddenly saw the two middle-aged men already running like the wind, half a mile away. Che Zhan laughed, “They must be up to something.” He then said to Ji Cuiyu, “Never mind them! Chase after them.”
Ji Cuiyu said, “Those two must be feeling guilty. Their lightness skill is quite good.” Che Zhan followed behind Ji Cuiyu, and with a little more effort, they were only a dozen or so feet away from the two middle-aged men. So they maintained their distance, not letting them out of sight again. Just then, a silvery voice rang out from the left. To Che Zhan’s surprise, he recognized it as Xuanfeng and Miaopin.
Ji Cuiyu asked, "Ah Zhan, why are they here?"
Che Zhan laughed, "They're curious about us too, what's the difference? Are you afraid they'll kidnap me?"
Ji Cuiyu said, "Kidnapping me would be best, so they won't bother me at night."
Che Zhan chuckled, "That's your own fault! If I had followed Da Buhua's plan, my internal energy would have dissipated long ago."
Ji Cuiyu seemed about to punch him, but seeing the two women approaching, she could only glare at Che Zhan and greet them with a smile, "Ladies, what a coincidence! We meet again."
Xuan Feng laughed, "Miss Ji! You're not surprised that we know your name, are you? Oh! There are three other ladies too?"
Che Zhan didn't respond, letting Ji Cuiyu continue, "They had something to do and left temporarily. You two are really observant, finding out our names so quickly."
Xuan Feng laughed, "Miss Ji, don't worry, we have no ill intentions. It's just that Young Master Che is often watched, so he's curious." Che
Zhan couldn't ignore it, and laughed, "Anyone traveling in the martial world, except for their colleagues and friends, is noticed by others. For example, you two..." The girl is from Western Xinjiang, and I also found out. Check after check. There is a difference between staring curiously and checking for enemies. There is a big difference between looking up words.
The two girls smiled coquettishly and said, "Master, you are teaching us a lesson. You are right."
Che Zhan smiled and said, "You two girls!" Speed up our steps and catch up with the two unknown characters in front of us. Now let's check at the same time to see which line they are on.
Xuanfeng said: "Why don't you pay attention to the back? There are twice as many in the back as in the front?" "
Che Zhan said: "The two people in front are trying to avoid being followed by others, and the six people behind are walking normally. There is nothing suspicious about them. There are differences in severity and urgency.
Miaopin looked at Xuanfeng and said, "We have met Lao Jianghu, and we need to learn more from him." She approached Che Zhan and said, "Master, we have already seen those two middle-aged men. Tell me, where did they come from?" "
Che Zhan said: "It is unmistakable that he is a gangster. He probably committed some crime. He suspects that we are members of the Bazi sect.
Miaopin said: "Just catch up and stop him, and make a hard check." "
Ji Cui Yu said repeatedly, "No, no! Without proof or evidence, how can we bully others? Although the two young ladies are highly skilled in martial arts, they must act reasonably. Impersonating an official is illegal. Using force to subdue someone is tantamount to bullying. How can that be allowed?"
Xuanfeng rolled his eyes at Miaopin and said, "Ah Miao, really, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Ji Cuiyu said, "The two young ladies are just straightforward. Please don't take offense."
Miaopin hurriedly said, "How could that be? I was wrong."
Che Zhan laughed and said, "The two of you are highly skilled in martial arts and have good manners. You must..." "You have a good master."
Xuanfeng said softly, "It seems that you know quite a bit about us, young master! By the way, I heard that one of the Yinshan Twin Eagles has died. Do you know that, young master?"
Che Zhan said, "I've heard the rumors. I'm afraid it might have come back to life. There are many tricks in the martial world. What do you two ladies think?"
Xuanfeng glanced at Miaopin again, made a face, and said, "A worthy opponent, perhaps?"
Che Zhan was puzzled and laughed, "Who is playing chess with me?"
Xuanfeng was startled and hurriedly said, "No, no."
Ji Cuiyu chuckled, " The two girls were panicking. What was going on? There must be someone who has the same opinion as A Zhan. "
Miaopin said anxiously: "Yes, yes, she is a friend of ours. She is also chasing Shuang E. She also doesn't believe that one of Shuang E has died.
Che Zhan said: "Stop gossiping now. I have noticed that the two middle-aged men in front of me are in trouble."
Xuanfeng said: "I saw several figures flashing in the forest opposite." "
Che Zhan said: "This doesn't prove that we are here to cause trouble for two middle-aged men.
Miaopin said: "Master, what do you mean by causing trouble?" "
Che Zhan said with a smile: "The problem is that these two middle-aged people themselves don't know much about disguise, but they dare to do so. In fact, it would be better if they wore masks. People in Jianghu wear masks a lot, but they are not suspected. They abandon the majority and adopt the minority. There are three people in the forest opposite, and among them there must be masters of disguise.
Xuanfeng said: "I understand. The people in the forest opposite deliberately want to expose them." "
Che Zhan said: "It's not that simple. If you think about the double osprey, it would be fine if only one of the two disguised himself. "
"Huh! They suspect these two are Shuang'e?" Ji Cuiyu exclaimed abruptly.
Che Zhan said, "You've figured it out." Before he finished speaking, the two middle-aged men, sensing the danger, stopped advancing and ran to the right up the mountain. Just as they reached the foot of the mountain, three figures in the forest intercepted them with lightning speed, shouting. Che Zhan said, "Let's get closer and see the outcome."
The three women followed, and they heard one of the men shout, "Fakes! Quickly revert to your true colors. If I had to do it myself, I'd probably peel off a layer of skin." Che Zhan stopped behind a tree within six or seven zhang, preventing the three women from showing themselves.
One of the two middle-aged men, seeing their situation, sneered, "Judging from your slightly hooked noses, but not high-bridged, you're definitely not from the Central Plains, but you're not pure Rakshasa either. You're probably a mixed breed, daring to act so arrogantly in the Central Plains, trying to rob us on the way?"
The leader of the two was a tall, burly man in his thirties with a long bundle on his back, clearly concealing weapons. He chuckled sinisterly, took two steps forward, and said with a grin, "I've traveled thousands of miles across the Central Plains without a single obstacle in my sight. I warn you, don't provoke me. Two of you like me wouldn't last three moves before you're on your way to hell. Tell me, are you the Yinshan Twin Eagles?"
A middle-aged man sneered, "So you've got the wrong people."
The hook-nosed man shouted, "Whether you're right or wrong, wash off that yellow wax wrinkle medicine! I've already figured out who the Yinshan Twin Eagles are."
The middle-aged man, seemingly knowing further words were pointless, beckoned to his companions, "Let's fight!" With a shout, the two pounced.
The hook-nosed man said coldly to his back, "Go! You two are enough for this kind of trash." The two older men behind him stepped forward to meet him, and the two-on-two battle began.
Ji Cuiyu whispered, "Ah Zhan! Did you hear that?"
"The three opponents are Rakshasa."
Xuanfeng said urgently, "Aren't Rakshasa people big-nosed and blond-haired?"
Che Zhan said, "Rakshasa has dozens of countries, many races, a chaotic mix of ethnicities, and countless independent rulers. You don't understand."
Miaopin suddenly said, "Xuanfeng, isn't the leader 'Black Hand Killer' Fox Sike?"
Che Zhan saw that the two middle-aged men were quite skilled in martial arts. Perhaps because they were fighting desperately, although they were slightly weaker than their opponents, they were actually attacking without defending. Upon hearing what Miaopin said, he hurriedly asked, "What about the Black Hand Killer?"
Xuanfeng said, "He is one of the three strongest in the entire Rakshasa, named Fox Sike. His martial arts are extremely high."
Che Zhan thought, "This is what the daughter of God told them. I can also see that the man has a sharp inner strength and is definitely not an ordinary person." Just then, the two middle-aged men, their strength waning, were repeatedly stabbed, their bodies covered in wounds and bleeding profusely. Xuanfeng, without a sound, rushed out with Miaopin. Chezhan, unable to stop them in time, hurriedly said to Ji Cuiyu, "Quickly help the two middle-aged men into the forest to heal their wounds." He then focused his attention on the fighting arena.
Xuanfeng and Miaopin, without uttering a sound, immediately subdued their two opponents. In less than three moves, the two Rakshasa were clearly unable to withstand the onslaught. The young man, seeing this, was greatly alarmed and suddenly brandished a broadsword—the sword of an ancient Western warrior—and lunged at Xuanfeng from behind. Chezhan, seeing the hook-nosed youth's despicable act, shouted, "Stop! You dare to attack me!" Chezhan dodged with astonishing speed, instantly blocking his opponent.
Seeing Chezhan's young age, the youth sneered, "You dare to block me, grandpa?"
Chezhan laughed, "Your name is Hu Siko?"
The youth, startled, chuckled, "You seem to have some knowledge. Not bad. And who are you?" "
Che Zhan said, "In the Central Plains, he is a nobody. Even if I told you, you wouldn't know. Why ask?"
It turned out that he was indeed one of the three strongest Rakshasa. He brandished his broadsword and said with a sinister smile, "Knowing my background and still daring to show up, you are courting death." "Saying this, he stepped forward steadily.
Che Zhan could tell that his opponent was as steady as a mountain, and must have extremely strong internal strength, and was secretly using an invisible divine skill. Hu Sike suddenly shouted, and his broadsword immediately flashed with a cold light. He was still when he was still, but when he moved, he was as fast as the wind. Che Zhan saw that he was empty-handed, but he had a hidden invisible divine sword. He immediately engaged his opponent, and the moment they made contact, their figures became like phantoms. In a battle between masters, everything depends on seizing the opportunity. If the opportunity is lost, one will lose. Each one is trying to seize the opportunity, and their moves must be fast. Opportunities are gained by speed, so the faster they seize the opportunity, the faster they become. The faster they become, the harder it is to distinguish their figures. Che Zhan rarely encountered such an opponent. On a whim, he used up 70% of his movement skills. The other two Rakshasa men were already being attacked by the two women, Xuan and Miao, and were in a panic because they had no reinforcements. They could not resist and could only fight and retreat. Ji Cuiyu saw from the woods that the two middle-aged men had sword wounds and were bleeding profusely. She immediately gave them medicine and gave it to them. Worried about the chariot battle,
Fox Sike had never encountered such a master before. The more they fought, the more alarmed he became, his confidence gradually fading. He had given his all, but he couldn't gain the upper hand. In his mind, they had exchanged hundreds of blows, yet he was still no match for his opponent's bare hands. Fox Sike's greatest fear was that the chariot warrior could unleash golden winds with his bare hands and even with his bare palms. He was utterly bewildered. Fortunately, he was an expert; he immediately dodged the golden winds as soon as they arrived, otherwise he would have been injured by the divine sword. With doubts in his mind, his attacks were inevitably restrained, his offensive momentum naturally faltering, forcing him to fight and retreat. In terms of strength, he was far inferior to the chariot warrior, and now, with his mind unsettled, defeat was inevitable.
The situation in the arena was now decided. Ji Cuiyu breathed a sigh of relief, finally able to focus on treating the two middle-aged men's injuries. However, the wounds were numerous, deep, and large, causing her to rub her hands together, saying, "What to do? What to do?"
The two middle-aged men had lost too much blood and were unconscious. After a while, one of them moved his hand and uttered a low voice, "Miss!" "We're doomed! Quickly grab this sketch; it's the location of the Blood Dragon Cup..."
Ji Cuiyu was shocked upon hearing this and hurriedly bent down to ask, "Are you Shuang'e?"
The man nodded weakly and said, "My brother has an elderly mother and wife in Sunjia Village, Qiantang. I hope you can take care of them, young lady. This sketch belongs to you."
Ji Cuiyu said, "Don't worry! There's still hope. Che Zhan will be here soon; he has a way to save you."
The middle-aged man turned his head to look at his younger brother lying beside him and asked, "Is my brother dead yet?"
Ji Cuiyu said, "Not yet. You must hold on. Judging from the situation, his injuries are more severe than yours. You must live; you still have an elderly mother and a wife
. You can't die." The middle-aged man sighed and said, "Even if I live, I'll still be a wanted criminal by the court. In the end, I still can't take care of my elderly mother and wife. I regret it; I deserve to die. "
Ji Cuiyu put away the sketch, held his head, and comforted him, "As long as you brothers are alive, being in jail is better than death. Perhaps, perhaps I won't send you to jail. I'll just hand over the Blood Dragon Cup to the officials and declare you dead." The
middle-aged man said, "Heroine, then you are disloyal to the court."
Ji Cuiyu said, "I am a Jianghu person. I have already done my duty by finding the treasure for the court."
Suddenly, someone chuckled, "Sister, the law is the law. Aren't you afraid of committing the crime of deceiving the emperor?" Ji Cuiyu thought it was Xuanfeng and Miaopin, but when she turned around, she saw an exceptionally beautiful young woman. She thought, "So beautiful! So beautiful! Who is she? I am truly inferior to her."
The young woman chuckled, "Miss, who are you...?" The young woman suddenly noticed that the two middle-aged men were seriously injured and urged them, "Sister, don't ask me. Quickly feed them these two pills, or it will be too late."
Ji Cuiyu took the pill and immediately fed it to the injured man, asking as she worked, "Miss, who exactly are you?" From
outside, Che Zhan's voice rang out, "Daughter of God."
The beautiful young woman smiled but ignored her, then took out medicinal powder and applied it to the wounds. After a long while, she stood up and asked, "Why didn't you kill him?" She was speaking to Che Zhan, who was walking into the forest.
"I won't kill indiscriminately," Che Zhan said as he approached.
The young woman glared at him and said, "A cornered dog will jump over the wall. To get revenge, he'll definitely join the Arctic Sect."
Che Zhan laughed, "If he has no backbone, I won't let him live next time."
As they spoke, both middle-aged men opened their eyes. Ji Cuiyu exclaimed happily, "What an effective pill! It brings the dead back to life!"
The young woman said, "Sister, you don't need to worry about them anymore. Leave it to my men. Let's go."
Ji Cuiyu immediately took out a sketch and said, "Let's go find the Blood Dragon Cup."
Che Zhan asked in surprise, "Are they really the Twin Eagles?" "
The girl said, 'Wouldn't it be better to get rid of one of your worries? Hurry up and go, lest someone else gets there first, and then we'll have to start all over again.'
Ji Cuiyu said in surprise, 'Sister, others don't know! The map is in my hands, and I haven't even looked at it yet.'
Suddenly, one of the two middle-aged men said, 'That heroine is right. When I stole the treasure and left the capital, I was very worried that my brother and I would be intercepted by the martial arts world. Later, I made two sketches. If we were separated, it would be best if both brothers survived, as if one of us was still alive, so that we wouldn't have wasted our efforts empty-handed. I didn't expect that in the end, my brother was trapped in the Spirit Cat Cave and had to hand over the sketches to survive.'"
Che Zhan asked urgently, "Who took the sketch?"
The eldest of the Twin Eagles shook his head and said, "My brother only begged the other party not to kill him, how could he dare to ask? Later, I only found out from him that the one who stole the sketch was an old man carrying two swords."
Che Zhan exclaimed, "Tu Guangfeng, the leader of the Nine Swords Sect, 'Ancient Sword Soul'." He then immediately said to the eldest of the Twin Eagles, "You are no longer able to accompany us, quickly tell us, where is it?"
The eldest of the Twin Eagles said, "In Mount Tai, the exact location needs to be seen on the map. Remember, it is the North Peak. First, climb the Sunrise Peak to see the direction clearly."
Ji Cuiyu said, "Oh no! It's such a long journey."
Che Zhan said, "Currently, we not only need to retrieve the Blood Dragon Cup, but also notify Lei Jiedu and 'Four Seas God' Gongsun. How about this, Miss Yu, please accompany you to Mount Tai, I will go and inform the two elders to head north."
Ji Cuiyu said to the girl, "Sister, it's our first meeting, I'm so sorry to trouble you."
"Sister, just call me by my nickname, Weiwei. " "After she finished speaking, she clapped her hands three times in quick succession, and a burly man rushed
over and asked, "Miss, is something wrong?" Weiwei said, "Give the order to inform Commander Lei as quickly as possible, saying that Young Master Che Zhan requests his immediate return to the capital. The Blood Dragon Cup has been located, but it must be kept secret and the other martial arts world must not be alerted."
The burly man asked, "Miss, are you also going to the capital?"
Weiwei said, "All of you go to Shandong."
After the burly man left, Che Zhan laughed and said, "You don't want me to go?"
Weiwei smiled and said, "Do you know where Commander Lei is? By the time you find him, we will already be in Shandong. I have eight great detectives who know everything." She clapped her hands again, this time only twice, and another burly man walked over and asked, "Miss, what are your orders?"
Weiwei said, "The two eagles lying on the ground have lost too much blood. You must protect them well on your journey north." After saying that, she said to Che Zhan, "You can go now."
Ji Cuiyu smiled and said, "Weiwei, you have the talent of a general! You are thoughtful, efficient, and truly decisive in your command." Wei smiled slightly and said, "
Sister, don't flatter me. I grew up single in the Western Regions, relying on myself for everything. It's just a habit."
Che Zhan laughed and said, "General! Aren't you waiting for Xuanfeng and Miaopin?"
Wei smiled and said, "What time is it? It's noon. We can't travel on an empty stomach. They've gone to find food."
Ji Cuiyu exclaimed in shock, "Oh! Weiwei, Xuanfeng and the others finished fighting a long time ago?"
Wei smiled and said, "They lured the two Rakshasa people into the forest and eliminated them, but they didn't expect us to turn from south to north, going in the opposite direction."
Ji Cuiyu said, "What should we do? Aren't we getting further and further away?"
Wei smiled and said, "Those two are clever little devils. Don't worry about them. Let's go, they'll catch up."
Walking on the road, Ji Cuiyu said to Che Zhan, "Ah Zhan, what are you doing walking behind us women? Go ahead and scout the way."
Che Zhan laughed and said, "You know I'm not familiar with the southwest region. Are you deliberately making things difficult for me?"
Ji Cuiyu said, "Don't you know how to go due north?" "
Che Zhan thought to himself, 'What's A-Yu up to? Is she trying to get rid of me?' Weiwei smiled silently to the side. Che Zhan had no choice but to..."
