Chapter 13

Lu Xiaofeng suddenly said: "Brother Yu, are you willing to join us in seeking justice for the Great Jinpeng Dynasty?"

Yu Liancheng smiled: "Ximen Chuixue has already agreed to take action, and with you two, how can there be anything in the world that cannot be accomplished?"

Lu Xiaofeng shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I often say that there are only five or six people in the world whose martial arts have truly reached the peak, and Huo Xiu and Dugu Yihe are completely included."

Yu Liancheng said: "Who are the other three or four?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Shaolin Abbot Dabi Zen Master, Wudang Elder Mu Daoren, both their internal and external skills have reached the realm of perfection. The 'White Cloud City Lord' Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue's sword techniques are both sharp and nimble, and they are the two great swordsmen of the age."

His tone changed: "Of course, that was the previous view. Brother Yu's sword technique and external skills might even be above theirs. I always heard people say that the world is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and experts are countless. Seeing Brother Yu, I know this saying is not wrong."

Yu Liancheng glanced at Lu Xiaofeng and smiled ambiguously: "You want to know my identity?"

Lu Xiaofeng smiled: "Slightly curious."

Yu Liancheng did not answer but said indifferently: "Don't worry, Ximen Chuixue is already enough to deal with the Great Jinpeng Dynasty incident."

"Huo Xiu's martial arts are unfathomable, but he is too mysterious; I only know that he cultivates the Virgin Skill. But Dugu Yihe is the Emei Sect Leader, his internal energy is profound, and his Blade and Sword Twin Kill is not only fierce in attack but even more rigorous in defense, and his experience in clashing is so rich that it is not something Ximen Chuixue can compare to."

Lu Xiaofeng shook his head: "Moreover, Ximen Chuixue's sword technique is sharp and ruthless; he not only leaves no room for others but also refuses to leave any room for himself. If he cannot succeed within thirty moves, he will definitely die under Dugu's sword."

Hua Manlou said: "You believe he cannot succeed within thirty moves."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "No one can put Dugu Yihe to death within thirty moves, and Ximen Chuixue is the same."

A mysterious smile suddenly appeared on Yu Liancheng's face: "Don't worry, Ximen Chuixue will definitely meet Dugu Yihe, and the one who dies will definitely be Dugu Yihe."

Lu Xiaofeng was about to ask why when he suddenly heard someone say: "Which one is Young Master Lu Xiaofeng?"

It was late, and in this mountain village inn, no one should have come, and no one should have been looking for Lu Xiaofeng.

But unexpectedly, someone had come, and unexpectedly, they were looking for Lu Xiaofeng.

Looking at his attire, he seemed to be a hunter from the mountains, holding a basket in his hand, and a roasted mountain chicken was packed in the basket.

Lu Xiaofeng said: "What are you looking for Lu Xiaofeng for?"

The hunter placed the bamboo basket on the table: "This was specially bought by Young Master Lu's aunt, who told me to send it to Young Master Lu to drink with."

Lu Xiaofeng was stunned: "My aunt?"

The hunter said: "Are you Young Master Lu Xiaofeng?"

Lu Xiaofeng nodded: "I am Lu Xiaofeng, but I don't have an aunt."

The hunter scratched his head and said: "If that young lady is not your aunt, why would she spend several taels of silver to buy a mountain chicken and not forget to let me send it over?"

Yu Liancheng ignored their conversation and tore off a chicken leg without any scruples, tasting it.

He was a person who liked to enjoy life; top-tier martial arts, top-tier wine, top-tier beauties... he turned none of them away.

He was a relatively picky person, but in such a mountain village inn, eating roasted chicken with a good taste, drinking two gulps of burning throat wine, and appreciating the mountain night view was also a very pleasant thing.

On the other side, Lu Xiaofeng's person had already flown up, flipping in the air, and grabbed a little girl dressed in five-colored clothes, looking very obedient, with large eyes, from the roof.

Lu Xiaofeng grabbed her braid and pulled her in, saying unhappily: "I knew it was you, this little monster, acting like an elder all day long. But you don't know that only little girls always say their age is very old. For real women, they always hope their age is as young as possible."

This little girl was called Shangguan Xue'er, the younger sister of Shangguan Feiyan, and was a very naughty little girl. Although she was only twelve or thirteen, she liked to pretend to be twenty or thirty.

Hua Manlou smiled: "People spent ten taels of silver to invite you, and the taste of this mountain chicken is not bad; even if you aren't grateful, at least you should be polite to others."

Xue'er smiled sweetly: "My nephew still has a conscience, saying a fair word."

Lu Xiaofeng smiled: "So people with conscience are a generation younger than those without. Speak, what do you want to do by finding us two juniors?"

Shangguan Xue'er's bright, shining eyes rolled around and said: "I didn't come to find you two juniors."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "If not looking for juniors, could it be looking for elders?"

Xue'er nodded.

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Then where is your elder?"

Shangguan Xue'er raised her small hand and pointed at Yu Liancheng, who was originally watching the show: "I came to find him."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Do you know him?"

Shangguan Xue'er nodded: "I naturally know him; he is my master."

Lu Xiaofeng looked at Yu Liancheng.

Yu Liancheng smiled: "This should be the first time I've seen you."

Shangguan Xue'er nodded: "This is also the first time I've seen you, but I already know from the Princess that you are very formidable, and even she can't do anything about you."

Yu Liancheng said: "But I don't remember accepting you as a disciple."

Shangguan Xue'er looked at him with bright, shining eyes: "A girl like me who is both smart and cute, as long as one is not a fool, would definitely be willing to accept me as a disciple. You don't look like a fool, but rather a very smart man."

Yu Liancheng smiled: "But a truly smart man knows when to be a little foolish, like now."

Shangguan Xue'er stomped her feet: "But you... but you have already accepted my apprenticeship gift."

Yu Liancheng said: "Oh?"

Shangguan Xue'er pointed at that plate of roasted chicken.

Yu Liancheng took out an ingot of silver and said: "I can return ten, one hundred to you."

Shangguan Xue'er pouted: "You really don't want to accept me as a disciple."

Yu Liancheng nodded: "In reality, I am also just a beginner, and I really don't have the mind to accept anyone as a disciple now."

Shangguan Xue'er said angrily: "I don't care, anyway our master-disciple relationship is half-formed, you are my half-master." Originally, she was just joking, but she didn't expect Yu Liancheng to insist on not accepting her as a disciple, which instead provoked her rebellious psychology.

Hua Manlou smiled: "How is it a half-master?"

Shangguan Xue'er said: "I have formed a master-disciple relationship with him; I am willing to be his disciple, so it's already half-formed. Now as long as the 'half-master' agrees, the other half will be formed."

The three grown men were all speechless, and Hua Manlou sighed: "This is indeed the cleverest little girl I have ever seen."

Yu Liancheng smiled: "And also the little girl with the thickest skin."

Shangguan Xue'er said angrily: "Your skin is thick, the half-master's skin is the thickest, thicker than a city wall."
