A Family of Hopeless Romantics, Except for the Evil Little Junior Brother Chapter 22: An Open and Honorable Sneak Attack!

At this mont, the doors of the mountain god temple were pushed open once more.

This ti, it was a group of traveling rchants passing through.

Judging by their attire, they were from another region. If they were locals, they wouldn’t have dared enter Wei Tiger Mountain, even if it ant taking a detour.

Zhou Yan took the initiative to strike up a conversation with them. During the exchange, he asked if they weren’t aware that Wei Tiger Mountain was ho to demons.

The leader of the rchants wiped the rain off his face and said,

“No choice. If we don’t speed up, we won’t be able to sell our goods at all. By then, our entire family will be left with nothing but the northwest wind to drink.”

Dressed in blue, Bai Xue curiously asked, “If you can’t sell your goods, why not find another way to make a living?”

“No capital.”

“Can’t you borrow a few hundred taels of silver from relatives or friends? That should be easy, right?”

The rchants exchanged glances, staring at this pretty young girl.

Hiding in the altar, Li Xuanxiao glanced at Bai Xue—this was the perfect embodint of ‘let them eat at porridge.’

Zhou Yan shot Bai Xue a look and gave the rchants an apologetic smile.

“Apologies, my Little Junior Sister is inexperienced in the ways of the world. Please don’t take offense.”

The rchant leader waved his hand dismissively.

Zhou Yan continued, “A few hundred taels wouldn’t be enough to start a business. If you’re going to borrow, you should borrow a few thousand taels to make it worthwhile.

Otherwise, I think you could rent out your houses and farmland to others and collect rent. That’s what my family does.”

The rchants: ………

Li Xuanxiao: You and your Junior Sister, one is just as clueless as the other.

The rchant leader gave an awkward smile, just as he was about to say sothing—

A deep roar suddenly echoed from outside.

The sound seed ancient, piercing through layers of wind and rain, drilling straight into everyone’s ears.

Amidst the raging storm, the roar was surprisingly clear, like a sharp blade slicing through the night sky.

The rchants shuddered in fear.

Just their luck—had they really run into the tiger demon!?

But Zhou Yan, Bai Xue, Qingfeng, and Qingming remained calm, even slightly excited.

After all, they had co specifically to hunt the tiger demon.

They thought they would have to spend so effort tracking it down, but unexpectedly, the tiger demon had delivered itself to them.

The already dilapidated mountain god temple trembled under the violent winds. The door, rotten and barely holding together, was instantly torn apart.

A gust of cold wind, carrying the scent of rain and earth, howled into the temple, sending shivers down everyone's spines.

All eyes instinctively turned toward the entrance.

Through the torrential downpour, a massive tiger’s head suddenly erged from the darkness!

Its enormous body was like a moving mountain.

Its tiger eyes, as large as bronze bells, glead with a chilling light.

Above its head, streaks of lightning crackled through the pitch-black sky, illuminating the scene as if it were broad daylight.

Each ti the lightning flashed, its fur shimred with a dazzling glow, making it look even more fearso and terrifying.

The rchants were already deathly pale—where had they ever seen a tiger this enormous!?

The tiger suddenly halted, its eyes flashing with contempt.

“More overconfident cultivators!”

Zhou Yan snorted, stepping forward to shield the rchants. “Whether we’re overconfident or not, you’ll find out soon enough.”

Qingfeng pressed his palms together. “Tiger benefactor, the sea of suffering has no end. Turn back, lay down your blade, and beco a Buddha. Amitabha.”

The white-striped tiger let out a furious roar. “Enough nonsense, hand over your lives!!”

Four figures simultaneously shot out of the temple, clashing with the tiger demon.

One rapid sword technique followed another, appearing sharp and fierce at first glance. But upon closer observation, there were many flaws.

The moves were swift, yet the transitions between them were rushed and lacked stability.

Especially when performing complex sword forms, it beca evident that their foundations were still weak.

The essence of Xuantian Sword Sect’s swordsmanship lay in its fluidity and stability.

However, what was being displayed here, though it resembled it in form, lacked the true depth of its mastery…

Li Xuanxiao observed from the shadows, focusing on Zhou Yan, who had the strongest sword skills among them.

“The palm techniques of Fahua Temple certainly live up to their reputation.”

Under the righteous onslaught of the four, the white-striped tiger was steadily pushed back.

The tiger roared in fury.

Clouds follow the dragon, wind follows the tiger.

A violent gust swept across the area.

Li Xuanxiao’s divine sense stirred.

The second tiger demon of Wei Tiger Mountain had appeared.

As soon as this tiger demon erged, it exuded an overwhelming aura, causing everyone present to gasp.

This one was completely white, as if covered in a thick layer of pristine snow. Not a single speck of impurity marred its fur, which glowed with a faint, icy radiance.

Compared to the previous tiger, its body was even larger—more than twice the size.

“What lowly scoundrel dares to harm my husband!!”

The battlefield instantly beca a two-versus-four fight.

“Hiss—”

Zhou Yan’s expression shifted slightly.

Sothing was wrong. The information had stated that both tiger demons were at the mid-Foundation Establishnt Stage.

But now, this female tiger had already reached the peak of the Foundation Establishnt Stage, just a step away from the Golden Core Stage.

This female tiger was far more ruthless. Relying on her powerful physique, her attacks were completely unrestrained.

Not only was she harder to deal with, but her battle intelligence was also far superior to the male tiger.

She feinted in one direction before lunging at Bai Xue, the weakest among the four.

“Junior Sister, watch out!!”

Zhou Yan tried to turn back to save her, but it was too late.

Bai Xue wielded her longsword, thrusting it toward the ferocious tigress.

However, the tigress reacted with astonishing agility.

With a powerful swipe of her massive claws, she struck the blade with overwhelming force.

Bai Xue’s sword, as light as a feather, was sent flying out of her hands.

At this critical mont—

A blinding sword light, as dazzling as a bolt of lightning, shot through the air!

The sword light moved at incredible speed, carrying an unparalleled force, streaking straight toward the tigress.

Li Xuanxiao burst out from within the statue.

The sword light was too fast—the tigress had no ti to dodge.

The blade pierced straight through her chest, sending her flying backward.

When Li Xuanxiao made a move, he ensured it was swift, precise, and lethal.

A completely honorable sneak attack!!

One sword strike landed—no unnecessary words.

With a flick of his hand, a prepared talisman shot out.

Caged Bird.

The talisman transford into a prison, trapping the tigress within.

At the sa ti, another sword thrust forward.

Just then, a furious roar erupted.

“Don’t you dare harm my wife!”

A massive figure blocked Li Xuanxiao’s blade.

It was the male tiger.

Li Xuanxiao’s sword pierced through his body.
