Lu Aotian stood between the two of them with a big saber.
The secret guard frowned.
The Sect Master of the Fire Slaughter Sect?
Why did this guy appear?
Lu Aotian was considered a famous figure on Thousand Mountain Island. The secret guard had seen him in the Heavenly Jade Hall.
However, Lu Aotian might not pay attention to an inconspicuous servant.
The secret guard looked at Lu Aotian suspiciously. “When did this become the territory of the Fire Slaughter Sect?”
Lu Aotian said domineeringly, “From now on!”
With that, he turned to look at Chu Feifeng, who was lying on the ground with serious injuries. “Madam, don’t be afraid. I’m the Sect Master of the Fire
Slaughter Sect. The surrounding five kilometers is the territory of the Fire Slaughter Sect. You only need to pay ten taels of silver as protection fee, and no one will dare to hurt you again!”
The corners of the secret guard’s mouth twitched.
He could even collect protection fees. As expected of a sect on the island that had a reputation for being poor!
Chu Feifeng held her chest and said patiently, “I’ll give you a hundred taels… Kill him for me!”
LU AOt1an sala ngnteousw, “Maaam, our Fire blaugnter sect aoesn’t Kill people casually unless you can prove that he’s a heinous person. However, since he injured you, why don’t you give me a hundred taels and I’ll teach him a lesson for you!”
Chu Feifeng glared at the secret guard. “Okay.”
The secret guard’s expression changed slightly.
Lu Aotian slashed at the secret guard.
The secret guard raised his sword to block and was forced back more than ten steps.
What a domineering saber technique!
Lu Aotian jumped up and slashed angrily. “Take another slash from your grandfather!”
He could not withstand this slash!
The secret guard frowned deeply and leaned against the wall behind him, barely dodging Lu Aotian’s attack.
However, Lu Aotian did not give him a chance to catch his breath. He slashed horizontally.
The secret guard raised his sword to block, but Lu Aotian kicked him in the chest. Even the wall behind him collapsed.
He fell miserably into a pile of ruins. Dust and smoke lingered, causing him to cough repeatedly.
He gritted his teeth and shouted, “Sect Master Lu! This is a private matter of the Heavenly Jade Hall. I advise you not to interfere!”
Lu Aotian said arrogantly, “Grandpa! Are you still pretending to be someone from the Heavenly Jade Hall? Do you think I don’t go to the Heavenly Jade Hall and don’t know their martial arts?”
He was indeed not using the martial arts of the Heavenly Jade Hall because he was not a disciple of the Heavenly Jade Hall. He was Madam Ji’s secret guard.
Lu Aotian said domineeringly, “I’ll cripple one of your legs first, then take you to the Heavenly Jade Hall to hand you over to Hall Master Ji to deal with personally. Let’s see if he sent you to our Fire Slaughter Sect to cause trouble!”
This Lu Aotian was really stubborn!
The secret guard was furious.
However, he was inferior to Lu Aotian and could only be suppressed.
If this continued, one of his legs would definitely be crippled. He had no choice but to leave Chu Feifeng behind.
“Stop right there! Don’t run!”
“Hey! Madam! Why do you want to run too? You’re not allowed to leave without money! I’ve beaten him up for you! You have to pay a hundred taels!”
Lu Aotian shouted a few times in the direction that the person had left, finding a reason not to chase after him.
After confirming that she had walked away, Lu Aotian quickly came to Chu Feifeng and squatted down to ask, “Madam Wei, how are you?” Chu Feifeng grabbed his wrist and refused to let go.
Lu Aotian immediately stiffened. “You, you, you… Don’t be like this!” Chu Feifeng used the last of her strength and said with difficulty, “Save…
save…”
Before she could finish, she spat out a large mouthful of blood. Finally, she couldn’t hold on anymore and fainted. Lu Aotian panicked. “Hey! Hey! Madam Wei! Madam Wei… Madam Wei!”
The moon was dark and windy.
The three little ones, who had played crazily for the entire day, finally exhausted all their energy and fell asleep on the floor.
Ling Yun snorted and called his disciples to carry them to his Azure Cloud
Palace.
“Young Palace Lord, where are the three young masters sleeping?”
A disciple asked.
Ling Yun pointed at his bed.
The three disciples were surprised. He despised their little disciples very much, but actually let them sleep on his bed?
Was he feeling lonely?
The disciples gently placed Dahu, Erhu, and Xiaohu on Ling Yun’s bed.
The three little ones were so smug!
“Hmph.”
Ling Yun glanced at the three evil disciples with disdain and pulled the blanket over them fiercely.
“Young Palace Lord, rest too.”
The disciple advised.
The Palace Lord had been running around for a day and night, but the young Palace Lord also didn’t sleep well.
The mother and son were cold on the outside but warm on the inside. They cared about each other the most.
“Yeah.”
Ling Yun responded.
However, it was strange. He was clearly a little tired, but he did not seem to be able to sleep.
It was as if something was about to happen.
He looked at the silent sky.
Just now, the stars and moon had intersected. In just a short while, it was already covered by dark clouds and not a trace of starlight could be seen.
In the Flying Cloud Palace.
The Palace Lord sat by the cradle and narrowed her eyes.
She rested her elbows on the table and supported her head with one hand.
Ling Yin had also fallen asleep. She lay on the table, her head resting on the cloak that should have been draped over the Palace Lord.
The Hundred Flowers Palace fell into silence.
In a small forest outside the palace, Ji Minglou and his subordinates were secretly waiting for midnight to arrive.
He looked towards the direction of the Hundred Flowers Palace with a complicated expression, causing others to be unable to guess what he was thinking.
One of his subordinates reminded him, “Hall Master, it’s almost midnight.”
Ji Minglou frowned and sighed helplessly. “Prepare to attack.”
His subordinate said, “Yes!”
Everyone took off their cloaks, revealing their night clothes that had almost fused with the night. They covered themselves and checked their weapons.
Everything was in place.
In addition, they had brought a hound.
The Hundred Flowers Palace was too big. They didn’t know where the medicine woman and child lived. It was too troublesome to find the courtyards, and it was easy to alert the enemy.
It was much easier with the hound around.
Moreover, it had been trained not to bark unless its master spoke. Ji Minglou also slowly covered his face and narrowed his eyes. “Let’s go!” The group used their qinggong to infiltrate the Hundred Flowers Palace.
The hound was carried in too.
Ji Minglou had brought this hound to the Jade Pavilion to sniff the scent of the medical woman and child.
As long as it was placed on the path that led to various places after the
Hundred Flowers Palace entered, it could quickly capture a familiar smell.
When they arrived at the main road, Ji Minglou gave the disciple holding the hound a look.
The disciple understood and gently placed the hound on the ground.
The hound began to recognize Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Xiaobao’s auras.
With Yun Shuang presiding over the Hundred Flowers Palace, no one dared to barge in. Therefore, there were not many disciples patrolling at night.
As for Yun Shuang herself, she had exhausted too much energy. As long as they did not cause a commotion, they would not alarm her.
Tonight was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It was easy to succeed.
Seven pairs of eyes stared at the hound without moving.
Finally, the hound reacted!
Ji Minglou gestured and followed!
The group used their qinggong and silently followed the hound towards the Flying Cloud Palace.
At Ling Yun’s palace, Sihu, which was guarding the three little ones suddenly opened its eyes..
