Repugnant Gateway

Chapter 130

Chapter 130

His first thought upon waking up was that he might have died again. He had been too careless.

He recognized all those herbs. Even though he wasn’t as familiar with the book as Qu Liuxi, his experience couldn’t be compared to an ordinary person.

He knew he was awake, and he knew he couldn’t pretend not to be.

The human body’s reaction was so acute that an experienced healer could easily make a judgment.

The owner of this small courtyard was Zhuge Liuyun. He was known as the number one healer in the entire Yan Kingdom for the past fifty years, and was also known as the number one alchemist madman in the world.

Although these two first place winners were slightly wet, it was enough to show Zhuge Liuyun’s ability.

Thus, from the moment he woke up, An Zhe had no intentions of pretending. Instead, he wanted to give himself a reasonable explanation for barging into a small courtyard.

“”You’re awake.””

The voice was familiar.

An Zeng opened his eyes and saw a person standing next to him, beautiful and adorable, with a slightly red face.

“”Huh?””

He didn’t expect to meet her here.

Ding Ningdong.

Ding Ningdong wore a goose-yellow dress. She seemed to be brimming with the youthful aura of a young girl and had a gentle and cute temperament.

“”If you come to see me, remember to knock next time.””

Ding Ningdong placed a cup of water beside An Zhe, “”Fortunately, master only planted herbs to prevent thieves, so the medicinal properties are not strong. Moreover, you immediately closed your mouth, inhaling only a small amount of fragrance.””

An Zaixin thought the situation was bad, it was more complicated than explaining why she had barged into the small courtyard. Ding Ningdong thought he had come to sneak a peek at her.

“”I …””

An Zhan felt that his throat was a little hoarse, and he didn’t know how to reply for a moment.

Ding Ning Dong said, “”I don’t know how you found out, but you actually knew I was here.””

You’re quite capable, but don’t be so reckless next time.

Fortunately, you only entered the backyard. If you entered the house, I’m afraid you wouldn’t be so lucky.

“”Master’s Potioneering array in the backyard is very powerful. Even if a cultivator in the state of desire were to enter, he would be entranced if he wasn’t careful.””

An Xuan had to find a topic to divert Ding Ningdong’s attention. “”But why are the commoners living near this small courtyard alright?””

Ding Ning Dong replied with a smile, her voice crisp as a bell, “”That’s because the walls were built using earth as a foundation. When the flower fragrance drifted out of the garden, it was neutralized by the medicinal properties of the soil, so the fragrance of the flowers drifted out.””

“”And you entered the courtyard and activated the medicinal array.””

Ding Ning Dong, who was sitting next to An Zaihai, touched his forehead, “”Your health is good. The fragrance of this flower will last for a while, but it won’t do any harm.””

My master will be back soon, so you can rest for a while and leave.

“”If you want to see me, you’ll see me when the academy officially opens in a few days.””

An Xuan said, “”Actually …””

Ding Ningdong suddenly reached out her hand to stop An Zaihai’s mouth, “”I know what you want to say, so I better not say it.””

Ding Ningdong leaned down, put her red lips to An Zaihai’s ears and said in an extremely low voice, “”It’s better to leave behind some beautiful fantasies. I can’t think of you as a thief.””

Otherwise, I won’t be able to let you go. “”

An Zaixin sighed, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Ding Ning Dong Dong’s lips were already touching An Xin’s face, and the softness and warmth of her lips were clearly felt. She whispered in his ear, “”I know you definitely came here for a reason, but you can only sneak in to see me right now, understand?””

An Zhe suddenly realized that there must be someone watching this small courtyard.

Of course, Ding Ningdong didn’t really like him, which was why she started spouting nonsense. Instead, she saved him.

“”Thank you.”” Ang nodded.

Ding Ningdong said, “”When I send you out later, you pretend nothing happened.””

If … if you don’t want to die, you must hug me before you go out.

“”Otherwise, I’m afraid he wouldn’t believe my master’s explanation.””

When he sat up, he still felt a little dizzy in his head.

“”Everything in this yard seems very strange.””

An Zhan casually said.

Ding Ningdong sat up straighter, “”Master has been alone for so many years, it doesn’t matter if it’s a little strange or not.””

If you feel better, then leave quickly, or he won’t forgive you when he comes back. “”

“”Oh, then I’ll be leaving first.””

Ding Ningdong opened the door, walked An Zaihai to the door of the small courtyard, then opened her arms.

An Zeng’s eyes flashed for a moment, then he walked over and hugged Ding Ningdong.

Ding Ningdong whispered into An Zaiyue’s ear, “”If you’re so perfunctory, how can you do it?””

An Zizheng used both of his arms to tightly hold Ding Ningdong, then Ding Ningdong pushed him away, “”Quickly leave, or else Master will come back and you will be in trouble.””

An Zaihai opened the door, ran out, and then stopped. He turned around and smiled at Ding Ningdong. Ding Ningdong was also smiling at him, but there was bitterness in her smile.

After An Zaiyue left, he felt like he was dreaming. He never thought that Ding Ningdong would be in Zhuge Liuyun’s yard.

The strong and poor girl, too, seemed mysterious.

However, An Zaiyue also confirmed one thing. There must be some big secret hidden in Zhuge Liuyun’s yard. Otherwise, why would a house of an imperial physician be watched closely all day long?

Judging from Ding Ningdong’s reaction, she seemed to be particularly afraid of those people.

But why did no one stop him before he entered the courtyard?

He couldn’t figure out these things clearly, but he felt that Zhuge Liuyun’s yard was strange.

The only thing that didn’t match the courtyard was the gentle and cute Ding Ning Dong.

He walked forward, preparing to return to the market.

Halfway there, he saw a few sneaky men in an alley who seemed to be carrying something.

An Zeng turned his head and followed her in. He discovered that there was a secret door at the end of the alley. Those people should be carrying a person, and it looked like a young girl.

An Zeng leaped up and jumped over the wall, staring at those people from afar.

They carried the young girl into a single courtyard. Outside the small courtyard stood several large men holding metal rods.

Andersen looked up and saw a two-story building in front of him.

When he came here, he walked past this place. Thinking back, it should be a brothel called the Frost Jade Tower.

The flames of anger rose in An Zhe’s heart. In broad daylight, this bunch of dogs dared to rob the young girl and send her in.

It was said that all the brothels in Fang Gu City were controlled by the empress dowager. These people were lawless.

An Zeng quickly took a few steps, afraid that the young girl would be taken advantage of by the men.

Just as he walked over, he heard a soft shout from within the courtyard: “”If grandaunt isn’t pretending to faint, how could she find a place like you? Today, none of you can leave!””

An Zhan was slightly startled, but he suddenly knew who the young girl was.

Following that, a burly man was thrown out through the wall. He landed on the ground with a miserable fall.

His nose was crooked, and his two front teeth were knocked out. He didn’t know where he had flown off to.

The man was well-built, but after struggling a few times, he was still unable to stand up. One could imagine how heavy the fall was.

The few men guarding the door immediately rushed into the yard with their iron rods.

An Zaiyue walked to the gate of the courtyard and leapt onto the wall. He then took out a flagon of wine from the space of the Blood Purity Pearls and watched it while he drank.

In the courtyard, a young girl wearing a long black dress was fighting like a storm.

The things in the yard were almost all smashed by her. A woman in her forties was knocked unconscious. Sitting on the wall, she could see the bulge on the woman’s forehead. It was obvious that she was smashed by a stick.

The girl in black lowered her head and dodged an iron rod. She grabbed the man’s arm with both hands and with a flip of her body, she climbed onto the man’s back.

She wrapped her hands around the man’s neck, her legs like she was kneeling there, her knees against the man’s back, one leg raised, then her knee jerked forward, and she felt as if she could hear the bones snap.

This time, his knee was pressed against the man’s spine. It was likely that the man’s lower half of his body... Pei, he wouldn’t be able to stand up again for the rest of his life.

The burly man’s body fell forward, and the girl picked up the iron bar from the ground.

She was small and thin and looked heavier than herself.

However, the swing of the iron rod could not be any fiercer.

With a bang, one of the large men was struck on the back of his neck and fell down without any suspense.

At the start, there were at least ten big men attacking the girl, but after a while, there were only four or five people left.

The young girl did not show any mercy as she clearly hated these guys to the bones.

She reached out and grabbed one of the men by the hair, then pulled him back and he tumbled headfirst into the tank.

Then the girl struck the tank with her stick, and it shattered.

The remaining three men did not dare to attack again and turned around to escape.

The girl in black held onto the hem of her black skirt with one hand and held onto a metal rod with the other as she gave chase.

A minute later, the girl who had knocked down the three burly men panted slightly as she walked back. She smashed the steel lock on the door with her pole and then kicked the door open.

The dozen or so young girls in the room immediately cried out and hugged each other. The girl in black waved her hands, “”What are you afraid of? Come with me!””

When the young girls saw that it was a girl who had barged in, they relaxed a little. Some of them mustered up the courage to come out and take a look first, then shouted for everyone to run.

The girl in black dress was still holding onto her long skirt with one hand and carrying a metal club on her shoulder with the other. She followed behind the girls in a heroic manner.

An Zhe looked behind him and saw more than ten men rushing over from the front yard of the brothel. They were all carrying long sabers in their hands.

The person at the front moved quickly and arrived at the backyard door in a flash.

Andersen was sitting on the wall of the courtyard, near the house, and could not see him without looking closely.

After the cultivator rushed over, he leaped towards the girl in black dress.

This cultivator’s movements were very fast. However, he could not attack from afar. Clearly, he was still in the ascension stage.

An Zou thrust two fingers forward and pulled out a tile from the house. Then, he silently jumped down from the courtyard wall.

The cultivator should be stronger than the girl in black dress. Thus, when the girl in black dress turned her head, the cultivator had already reached out to grab her throat.

And then there was a bang.

The young girl instinctively closed her eyes and then opened them again. She saw the cultivator fall limply to the ground.

An Zeng smashed the cultivator’s head with a brick before pulling the girl in black dress away. “”With just this little bit of ability of yours, you still want to imitate him as a female warrior?””

The young girl saw through the conflict and grunted as she ran, “”None of your business!””

He grabbed her arm and pulled her back. Then he placed his hand on the small of her back and threw the girl in black dress over the wall.

There was a patter outside, and then the girl’s voice rang out, “”I’m going to die from the fall …””

An Zhan threw out the girl in black dress. He then turned around, tore off a string of clothes from his body and tied it around his face. He then faced the dozens of men and threw them one by one.

Fearing that some cultivators might chase after them, An Xuan immediately turned to leave.

After exiting the walls of the courtyard, he saw the girl in black dress leading a dozen or so girls who seemed to be at a loss as they ran towards the main street. An Zeng cursed her as an idiot before leading the group of people to run in another direction.

After several rounds, An Zhe bought some boys’ clothes from a store, then returned to the quiet alley and had the girls change into them.

The girl in the black dress glared at An Zaiyue fiercely. “”What are you looking at!?””

A girl changing her clothes, you still haven’t closed your eyes?! “”

An Zhan responded with a “”oh””, “”Repay kindness with enmity.””

The girl in black dress said, “”It seems like you want to see. Do you want me to take off my clothes for you to see?””

An Zhan shook his head. “”No, you’re ugly.””

The young girl raised her fist and shook it before letting out a laugh, “”Sooner or later, I will let you piss me off to death.””

An Xuan closed his eyes and handed over the last piece of clothing. “”Miss Sang, why don’t you change your clothes as well? Aren’t you afraid of implicating your family members?””

The girl in black dress hesitated for a moment before turning around and taking off her black dress.

Under the sunlight, the young girl’s body was fully revealed. She was fair and fit.
