Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Attracted by the sound of the fight, Gu Qingqing stopped. Rong Ye and Si Lin also stopped. The three of them looked towards the source of the sound.
They saw a middle-aged man with a little boy not far away fighting against five men in black.
The men in black not only had high cultivation, but their moves were ruthless. Their target was the little boy. They had been trying to break through the middle-aged man’s line of defense and kill the little boy. The middle-aged man should be the little boy’s relative or servant. His cultivation was not weak either, he had been protecting the little boy all this time.
The little boy was already scared out of his wits. Although he knew that he could not influence the middle-aged man, he still curled up in the middle-aged man’s arms, tears streaming down his face.
Logically speaking, a place like the Flying Snow House should not allow such a thing to happen. After all, if a customer were to get into trouble in the Flying Snow House, it would also affect the Flying Snow House’s business. However, no one came out to help the middle-aged man deal with the black-clothed men at this moment. This was a little strange.
While Gu Qingqing and the others were staring over there, the few people over there also noticed Gu Qingqing and the other two.
The middle-aged man was initially a little excited. However, when he saw that Si Lin and Rong Ye were both very young and had brought along a child like Gu Qingqing, he was disappointed. He turned around and dealt with the black-clothed man in front of him seriously, looking for a chance to escape.
The black-robed men exchanged glances with each other. When they saw that Gu Qingqing and the others were only looking at them and had no intention of coming over to help, they did not care too much about the three of them. Instead, they sped up their efforts to deal with the middle-aged man.
Gu Qingqing and the other two were grandly ignored. Rong Ye and Si Lin were not the kind of people who meddled in other people’s business. They appeared very casual. Meanwhile, Gu Qingqing frowned when she saw the little boy in the middle-aged man’s arms who was crying in fear. However, she did not ask Si Lin and the others for help.
The three of them watched as the middle-aged man gradually fell into a disadvantage under the combined attacks of the five men in black. There were also many wounds on his body. It was very obvious that if nothing unexpected happened, the middle-aged man and the little boy would be killed by the men in black.
At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from the side.
Gu Qingqing, the three of them, the middle-aged man and the others turned to the place where the sound of footsteps came from at the same time.
There were quite a number of people who came this time. The one who walked at the front was a ten-year-old youth.
Although the youth looked a little immature, one could tell that he was very handsome. He would definitely be a big handsome man in the future.
The clothes on his body looked like ordinary brocade clothes, but it was actually a Daoist robe. Moreover, the level was not low.
Behind the youth were two middle-aged men dressed in the same color. They seemed to be the youth’s guards or something. The two of them were tall, and their eyes were dignified without anger. The aura they emitted also made people feel threatened. Their cultivation levels should not be low.
Behind the two of them were eight young men dressed in dark colored shorts. From the looks of it, they should be the youth’s followers or something.
The youth and the others also heard the sounds of fighting. After they saw the scene clearly, they were all stunned for a moment and stopped where they were.
After a moment, the youth seemed to have reacted. He gave a few words of advice to the two middle-aged men behind him. The two of them looked at the other group of people who were fighting and nodded reluctantly. Then, they immediately rushed over and joined the battle. They helped the little boy and the man fight the men in black.
The youth stood where he was and swept his gaze across Gu Qingqing and the other two. He was a little curious but did not say anything.
After the two middle-aged men joined the battle, the situation changed again. This time, the men in black were forced to retreat. They were beaten to a pulp and everyone was injured.
Just when everyone thought that the men in black would retreat, one of the men in black suddenly rushed towards Gu Qingqing and her senior brothers. It seemed that he wanted to rush towards Gu Qingqing.
Although Si Lin and Rong Ye did not keep their eyes on the man in black, they were still paying attention to the situation. After sensing the man in black’s intentions, their expressions turned ugly.
“How dare you!” Si Lin shouted coldly and his figure disappeared from where he was.
Rong Ye also wanted to attack but he did not expect Si Lin to beat him to it. He stood beside Gu Qingqing and watched Si Lin teach the man in black a lesson.
Si Lin’s figure appeared in front of the man in black. The man was suddenly shocked and his body paused. Just as he was about to make a move on Si Lin, he felt a pain on his neck. He subconsciously reached out to touch it, but in the end, he felt a warm liquid. He lowered his head slowly and saw blood spurting out from his neck.
The man in black widened his eyes. His eyes were filled with disbelief as he fell heavily to the ground.
Si Lin had already returned to Gu Qingqing’s side and used his body to block Gu Qingqing’s line of sight, preventing her from seeing the man in black’s appearance.
Si Lin’s actions were too fast. Other than Rong Ye, the rest of the people present did not even see how he drew his sword. They only saw that the man in black had already fallen to the ground and had lost his breath.
The scene fell silent for a moment. Even the people who were fighting stopped and looked at Si Lin and the rest in shock.
The young man and his followers were still fine. They had not fought with the black-clothed people head-on, so they did not know much about the strength of the black-clothed people. However, the middle-aged man who was attacked at the beginning and the two people who helped later understood that the cultivation of the black-clothed people should be around level five; they were already considered experts on the continent.
However, even such an existence could not even withstand a single strike from Si Lin’s sword. Then, how high was Si Lin’s cultivation?
The rest of the people present did not dare to think about it at all. They only looked at Si Lin and the others with shocked expressions.
The fastest to react were the other four men in black. They knew that they would not be able to complete their mission today and that they might even be targeted by Si Lin, so they quickly turned around and left.
The middle-aged man holding the little boy saw that the men in black had left and immediately heaved a sigh of relief. He held the little boy in his arms and looked at the two middle-aged men who had come to help.
“Thank you for your help. I’m Zhou Lang,” he said as he reached out his right hand. There was a card inside, just like the one that Gu Qingqing had received earlier. “This is a thank-you gift for the two of you.”
“You’re too kind, fellow Daoist Zhou. We’re just following the young master’s orders. It’s nothing. There’s no need for that,” Han Xiong, who was slightly fatter than the two middle-aged men, waved his hand and said to Zhou Lang.
Zhou Lang looked at Han Xiong and the other man. He carried the little boy towards the young man and handed him the crystal card.
“Thank you for your help, young master. This is my gift to you.” Zhou Lang was very sincere, and his attitude was very humble.
“It’s just a small matter. There’s no need for that.” The young man waved his hand and did not take the crystal card. “Besides, it wasn’t me who helped you. If it wasn’t for that brother who killed one of them, I’m afraid those people wouldn’t have been dealt with so easily!”
Hearing this, everyone’s gaze fell on Gu Qingqing and the other two.
Si Lin, who was mentioned by others, had a cold expression. He did not even give them an glance, as if the person they were talking about was not him.
Rong Ye and Si Lin looked similar. Gu Qingqing was blocked by the two of them so that no one else could see.
“I’m Zhou Lang. Thank you for your help just now, young master. May I know how to address you?” Zhou Lang walked in front of Gu Qingqing and the other two and asked respectfully.
“My senior brother did not help you. You don’t have to thank us.” Rong Ye knew that Si Lin did not like to talk. He glanced at Zhou Lang and casually said a few words before he turned around and carried Gu Qingqing.
Si Lin ignored Zhou Lang. When he saw Gu Qingqing being carried by Rong Ye, he turned around and walked into the courtyard.
Rong Ye carried Gu Qingqing and followed Si Lin into the courtyard.
The courtyard door was quickly closed, leaving Zhou Lang and the others looking at each other as the door shut.
