Yang Ying turned around and sized up the lady that was Yue Ru.

Yue Ru felt slightly uncomfortable, but she smiled and asked, “Miss Yang, is there anything wrong with me?”

“No,” Yang Ying replied while shaking her head, “I’m just trying to see what Zhao Dahe likes in women. You’re certainly beautiful. It’s not surprising that Zhao Dahe is attracted to you. Alright, I’m leaving.”

Yang Ying turned around and left just as she finished speaking.

Yue Ru hurriedly said, “Hold on.”

Yang Ying turned back and glanced at her.

“Miss Yang, did you come here because you were following the orders of the White Tiger Sect’s elders?” Yue Ru smiled and asked.

Yang Ying curled her lips and said, “The elders don’t know that I’m here because I sneaked out. They wouldn’t let me leave the mountain and I was forced to cultivate my martial arts day and night. I had no choice but to get rid of Zhao Dahe by myself because I couldn’t stand it anymore!”

“Miss Yang, are you going to kill him?”

“Kill him? I’m afraid that he wouldn’t die even if I tried.” Yang Ying said, “I just want to defeat him.”

Yang Ying was not attached to those elders because she had never met them. As someone who had never killed someone before, Yang Ying merely wished to defeat Zhao Dahe.

Yue Ru gently nodded. “That’s good. Please be careful, Miss Yang.”

“Alright, I’m off.” Yang Ying waved her pale hand before turning around and left the room.

Lu Xiaofeng scoffed. “Why are you worried about Zhao Dahe?”

Yue Ru shook her head and smiled. “I’m just wondering why Miss Yang was brave enough to come and challenge Zhao Dahe.”

“Young people are always fearless.” Lu Xiaofeng sighed. “Look at her. She wants to challenge Zhao Dahe, but that’s simply ridiculous!”

“What’s ridiculous about that?” Yang Ying’s voice suddenly rang out. She was standing inside the room again. Yang Ying angrily glared at Lu Xiaofeng. “You’re a horrible person for saying bad things about me behind my back. Watch out!”

She delivered a punch just as she finished speaking.

Yang Ying’s pale, graceful, and adorable little fist struck Lu Xiaofeng’s palm. Lu Xiaofeng immediately flew backward and loudly crashed against the screen of the landscape painting. The screen shattered into numerous shards while Lu Xiaofeng’s body was embedded there.

Lu Xiaofeng widened his eyes in shock.

“Pfft!” He spat out a mouthful of blood.

Yang Ying curled her lips and asked, “How dare you criticize me despite being in the state you are currently in?”

Lu Xiaofeng felt extremely ashamed and furious because this happened while Yue Ru was nearby. He was suddenly unconcerned that Yang Ying was a girl while he was a man. Lu Xiaofeng angrily yelled, “Do you think that you’re skillful just because you ambushed me? Let’s see if you can handle an attack from my palm!”

Lu Xiaofeng turned his body over before he leaped up. His right palm was as crimson as blood. A scorching burst of palm energy that resembled boiling water rushed toward Yang Ying when Lu Xiaofeng suddenly pushed his palm forward.

Yang Ying’s delicate, snow-white fist collided against Lu Xiaofeng again.

“Bang!” Lu Xiaofeng flew backward once more.

Yang Ying scoffed. “You seem to think that you’re a jack of all trades. I can’t believe that you were bragging.”

Lu Xiaofeng loudly spat out another mouthful of blood. There was a stunned look on Lu Xiaofeng’s face as he glared at Yang Ying.

Lu Xiaofeng assumed that Yang Ying was a fragile girl with a naive personality. Lu Xiaofeng had intentionally belittled Yang Ying because she was merely a young girl. Unfortunately, Lu Xiaofeng was powerless to resist Yang Ying’s first blow. He understood that Yang Ying was a formidable opponent who naturally possessed extraordinary strength as well as an extremely refined inner energy.

Lu Xiaofeng exerted all of his strength to counter Yang Ying’s second attack. He pushed his own inner energy to its limit as well.

However, Lu Xiaofeng was defeated in the end. Worse still, Lu Xiaofeng noticed by looking at Yang Ying that she had not used all of her strength.

Lu Xiaofeng would not feel frustrated when he lost to Chu Li. Rather, Lu Xiaofeng’s fighting spirit would rise instead.

On the contrary, Lu Xiaofeng felt rather disheartened when he was defeated by Yang Ying now. Lu Xiaofeng had always thought that he was a genius, but he failed to beat a little girl who was younger than himself.

Yang Ying waved her hand and said, “You’re not allowed to speak badly about other people behind their backs anymore!”

Yang Ying turned around and left just as she finished speaking.

Lu Xiaofeng’s shame turned into anger as he roared, “Once more!”

Yang Ying turned back and cast a sidelong glance at him. “Again? You’re so shameless. You’ve already lost twice!”

“One last time!” Lu Xiaofeng spat.

“Alright.” Yang Ying said, “Hurry up. I still have to go and find Zhao Dahe.”

Lu Xiaofeng slowly exhaled. He took an unusually long time to breathe out. It seemed as though he required every organ to help him exhale.

A flaming sun that vaguely resembled a shadow appeared three feet above Lu Xiaofeng’s head. The flaming sun looked like a reflection on the surface of a lake. It emitted blinding rays of light, making people not dare to look at it.

The burning sun hurriedly descended before it burrowed into Lu Xiaofeng’s Baihui acupuncture point and sunk directly into his Dantian.

Yang Ying silently looked at him. Once Lu Xiaofeng had manifested it completely, Yang Ying stared as the man pushed his palm forward.

The lights and shadows seemed distorted at the area where her palm energy was released. The scorching heat that radiated from her palm energy could be seen as well.

Yang Ying curled her red lips before she attacked with her pale little fist. Yang Ying struck Lu Xiaofeng’s palm.

“Bang!” Lu Xiaofeng bounced backward like a rubber ball before he crashed against the wall. He shook the wall and caused the dust to rustle as it fell down. After that, he loudly spat out a mouthful of blood.

Yang Ying blew on her fist. A blazing force was currently winding around her fist, but the force was quickly extinguished by Yang Ying’s inner energy. “You seem somewhat skillful.”

Yang Ying’s eyes briefly scanned past Lu Xiaofeng before she spat. “However, you should spend a few more years practicing!”

Yang Ying did not say anything else after that. She merely took long strides and walked away.

“Pfft!” Lu Xiaofeng spat out another mouthful of blood.

Yue Ru pitifully gazed at him. She could not bear to see Lu Xiaofeng like this. “Young Master Lu, are you alright?”

Lu Xiaofeng shook his head and bitterly smiled. “I’ve lost today.”

“That girl was probably one of the White Tiger Sect’s secretly transmitted disciples.” Yue Ru said, “She’s a master who was meticulously trained. Don’t be too harsh on yourself just because you couldn’t defeat her.”

“Hmph...” Lu Xiaofeng dejectedly shook his head.

Yue Ru asked, “Do you think that she can defeat Zhao Dahe?”

“It might be possible.” Lu Xiaofeng abruptly chuckled. “Zhao Dahe will definitely assume that she’s just a young weakling. He won’t think of her as a threat. However, that mistake will definitely lead to Zhao Dahe’s downfall! Haha.”

Lu Xiaofeng suddenly calmed down when he thought of this. He stopped blaming himself when he realized that his opponent was extraordinarily skillful. It was also not surprising that Lu Xiaofeng had lost, considering Yang Ying was from the White Tiger Sect.

Yue Ru sighed in relief when she noticed that Lu Xiaofeng had cheered up. Yue Ru smiled and said, “Young Master Zhao won’t act so recklessly.”

Yue Ru secretly shook her head. Lu Xiaofeng along with everyone else was tricked by Zhao Dahe’s appearance. They thought that Zhao Dahe was an arrogant and conceited person. Zhao Dahe was a force to be reckoned with, but everyone still assumed that he was foolish.

Yue Ru and her Master were the only ones who knew that Zhao Dahe had actually deceived everyone else. Zhao Dahe looked like an idiot on the surface, but he was actually a genius.

Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said, “Let’s wait and see.”

Lu Xiaofeng was secretly uncomfortable. He knew that Miss Yue Ru was still thinking about Zhao Dahe deep down. Although Yue Ru admired Lu Xiaofeng, the person whom Yue Ru respected the most in the depths of her heart was Zhao Dahe, not Lu Xiaofeng!

Lu Xiaofeng felt rather discouraged when this thought crossed his mind. Lu Xiaofeng was also slightly angry and resentful because he did not fight for himself.

Yue Ru said, “Young Master Zhao will probably defeat Miss Yang. However, Young Master Zhao will refrain from using ruthless methods because Miss Yang is a girl.”

“It seems like he’s protective over the fairer sex.” Lu Xiaofeng bitterly smiled.

Yue Ru gently nodded.

Lu Xiaofeng said, “I’m going home to treat my wounds. We’ll know the news by tomorrow.”

Yue Ru thoughtfully said, “Take good care of your injuries and don’t let yourself be vulnerable to a relapse. You shouldn’t underestimate the martial arts of the White Tiger Sect.”

“Alright.” Lu Xiaofeng’s heart was filled with warmth when he realized that Yue Ru still cared about him.

Yang Ying had already found the place where Chu Li was staying while Lu Xiaofeng and Yue Ru were talking. Yang Ying forcefully knocked on the front door before an old man whose beard and eyebrows were completely white feebly stumbled outside.

“Tell Zhao Dahe to come outside now!” Yang Ying shouted.

The old man shook his head. He pointed at his ears to indicate that he had trouble hearing.

Yang Ying scoffed. “Zhao Dahe is a coward. If he’s brave, he should come outside and accept my challenge.”

The old man sighed before he suddenly shook his sleeve.

Yang Ying instantly felt an unusual force surging toward her. Suddenly, she flew away because she could not stand up steadily.

Yang Ying widened her eyes in shock as she landed on the ground. She could not believe this at all.

The hair on the old man’s face was completely white and his eyes were dim-sighted. He looked like a senile elderly man who moved sluggishly and seemed slow-witted when he walked. This elderly man appeared as though he would fall when the wind blew at him. However, he was actually extremely adept and skillful!
