Chapter 70: Something's Wrong
Chapter 70: Something's Wrong
Little Dragon Girl remained expressionless, seemingly oblivious to what Qian Jin had just said.
Huang Rong looked on with envy.
This young lady was not only incredibly beautiful, but also possessed extraordinary composure, which made Huang Rong feel inferior to her.
Just then, Da Wu and Xiao Wu rushed in from outside, shouting as they ran:
"Master's wife, Master's wife, something terrible has happened!"
Upon hearing this, Huang Rong's face immediately darkened, and she said:
"You two, what kind of behavior is this, rushing around so early in the morning?"
Wu Xiuwen, panting heavily, said:
"Master's wife, something terrible has happened! Just now, Sister Fu... she was captured by the Golden Wheel Monk!"
Upon hearing this, Huang Rong was immediately alarmed and, disregarding everything else, hurriedly led Da Wu and Xiao Wu to chase after them.
Qian Jin knew that Huang Rong was pregnant. If he chased after her in a moment of panic and encountered the Golden Wheel Monk, he would not only fail to save Guo Fu, but might even get himself killed.
So he said:
"Let's follow them and see!"
……
Qian Jin, along with Cheng Ying and Xiaolongnu, quietly followed behind Huang Rong and the others.
Little Dragon Girl was somewhat puzzled and said:
"Brother Qian, shall we go and meet up with them?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Jin smiled and said:
"There's a saying that goes, 'The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.' That Golden Wheel Monk is afraid of me, so if we go up and join them, that Golden Wheel Monk might not dare to show up."
Huang Rong was worried about her daughter's safety and hurried along, unaware that Qian Jin had secretly followed them.
By noon, Huang Rong, along with Da Wu and Xiao Wu, had chased Guo Fu to a town, but still could not find her.
After a morning of searching, Huang Rong and the others were all hungry, so they decided to find a restaurant to eat at first, and then continue their search.
The three arrived at a decent-sized restaurant. As soon as they went upstairs, they saw the Golden Wheel Monk holding Guo Fu hostage, eating at a table.
"Fur!"
Upon seeing this, Huang Rong couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Guo Fu was captured by the Golden Wheel Monk. Although she saw Huang Rong, she dared not go over and could only watch Huang Rong helplessly.
Upon seeing Huang Rong, the Golden Wheel Monk immediately smiled and said:
"Chief Huang, this young lady must be your beloved daughter! It's a pity I'm taking her back to Mongolia today."
Huang Rong snorted coldly upon hearing this and said:
"Golden Wheel Monk, you claim to be a grandmaster of a sect, yet you lost the martial arts contest and now you're making things difficult for a young lady. Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed by the martial arts world?"
The Golden Wheel Monk, unperturbed by these words, replied:
"Chief Huang is wrong."
In the previous contest, you were clearly the losers, but you broke the rules and hired people to take turns challenging us, which was really unfair.
In my opinion, let's find another day and have a fair competition to determine who is the true leader of the martial arts world.
Huang Rong thought for a moment and said:
"It's not impossible to have another match."
"But you should release my daughter first, then we can discuss the duel."
Upon hearing this, the Golden Wheel Dharma King laughed heartily and said:
"When the day of the martial arts competition arrives, I will naturally send Miss Guo back."
"Chief Huang, please rest assured, you and Miss Guo are both prominent figures in the Central Plains martial arts world. We will treat you with the utmost courtesy and will absolutely not make things difficult for you."
Upon hearing this, Huang Rong's expression changed drastically. She instantly realized that the Golden Wheel Monk not only intended to kidnap her daughter, but also to capture her as well.
He immediately turned to Da Wu and Xiao Wu and said:
"Go quickly, go back and ask your master for help."
Upon seeing this, the Golden Wheel Dharma King rushed over laughing and said:
"Haha, do you think you can leave now? You'd better come back with me obediently!"
Just as the Golden Wheel Monk was rapidly approaching, a figure suddenly rushed out from the side at an extremely fast speed, directly blocking the Golden Wheel Monk.
"Great monk, how have you been?"
"I can't believe you've sunk so low in just one day that you only dare to bully women here. It's truly shameful!"
The Golden Wheel Monk never expected that Qian Jin would suddenly appear at this moment.
After he blocked Qian Jin's deadly attack and looked back, Guo Fu had already been rescued by Cheng Ying and Xiaolongnu.
"Young Master Qian, we have no enmity, so why must you get involved in this mess and become my enemy?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Jin smiled slightly and said:
"Nothing more than I just don't like the look of you. If you're not happy about it, come and hit me!"
The Golden Wheel Monk hesitated for a moment, knowing that with Qian Jin present, continuing the fight would inevitably not yield any good results.
Moreover, this place is not far from Lu Family Village. If Guo Jing and the others also arrive, he will have even less chance of winning.
He immediately snorted coldly, then led Hordudarba and the others away in a sorry state.
Huang Rong, who was in dire straits, quickly pulled Guo Fu forward to thank Qian Jin.
Upon hearing this, Qian Jin smiled and said:
"Ms. Huang, you're too kind."
"Once Miss Guo and my disciple Yang Guo get married, we'll be family. There's no need for such formalities."
Huang Rong laughed along upon hearing this:
"Young Master Qian is absolutely right."
Actually, Guo'er and Fu'er already got engaged yesterday in front of all the heroes of the world, so in a way, we're family now.
Everyone had been busy chasing Guo Fu all morning, so they sat down together, ordered a table full of delicious dishes, and started eating.
After a hearty meal, everyone prepared to return to Lu Family Village together.
However, as soon as they got downstairs, they saw a beautiful woman in white pack up a few steamed buns and then quickly leave.
The others didn't think much of it at first, but Cheng Ying kept staring blankly in the direction the woman in white had left.
Seeing this, Qian Jin couldn't help but ask:
"Little sister, is something wrong?"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Ying said:
"Brother Qian, that person just now looked like my cousin, Lu Wushuang. She seemed to be in a hurry; could she be being chased by someone?"
Qian Jin was taken aback upon hearing this.
Was that woman in white just now actually Lu Wushuang?
Although the time she appeared was different from what I remembered, she must have stolen Li Mochou's Five Poisons Secret Manual while Li Mochou and Hong Lingbo were at the Ancient Tomb.
After Li Mochou returned, she naturally pursued and killed her.
It's just unexpected that so much time has passed and Li Mochou still hasn't caught her.
So he said:
"Since she's your cousin, we absolutely can't just stand by and watch her get chased down!"
I think we should hurry up and catch up with her to see if there's anything we can do to help her!
Cheng Ying was overjoyed upon hearing this and said:
"Thank you, Brother Qian."
Qian Jin laughed heartily upon hearing this and said:
"My sister's affairs are my affairs, so there's no need for thanks."
After saying that, he turned to Huang Rong and said:
"Miss Huang, something has come up and I can no longer travel with you."
When you return, please tell Yang Guo that he must diligently practice his martial arts. As for whether he wants to return to Quanzhen with Senior Brother Hao and the others, or go to Xiangyang with you, that's entirely up to him.
Huang Rong nodded upon hearing this and said:
"Don't worry, Young Master Qian, I will definitely convey your message."
