"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
Within the front courtyard, the sound of tal clashing was incessant.
Zhao Jiaqi’s Soft Sword was like a cunning, vicious snake.
Shangguan Min Yue’s three-foot Qingfeng Sword was also exceptionally graceful.
At that mont, both of them had unleashed their most powerful techniques.
A myriad of sword flowers heavily surrounded Lin Fan.
Luckily, Lin Fan’s movents were even more elusive and unpredictable.
Dodging and weaving through space, he easily evaded the combined attack of the two.
"Pikachu, why such fury? It was just a misunderstanding that day," he said.
"I say, Shangguan Min Yue, isn’t this biting the hand that feeds you? Careful, or I might spank you again!"
Dodging the sword’s edge was Lin Fan,
His mouth still able to tease the two of them easily.
These words, however, did not stop the won’s assault.
mories surged, hatred intensified.
"Today I must kill you, you scoundrel!" Zhao Jiaqi attacked again in a furious flurry.
Her wrist flickered, and the Soft Sword transford into a snake, stabbing towards Lin Fan’s throat.
"Touching a bit won’t cost you anything! You try to kill without asking, such brutality deserves a smack," Lin Fan retorted.
With precise movent, Lin Fan caught Zhao Jiaqi’s sword between his fingers.
He quickly circled to her side,
His left hand ford into a palm and fiercely smacked her buttocks.
"Shaless scum, always bullying won!"
Zhao Jiaqi scread as she clutched her buttocks and fled.
Shangguan Min Yue’s hatred deepened.
It was as if she relived the humiliation she suffered that day.
Holding the Qingfeng Sword, she hurried forward to help.
"I detoxified you and saved your life, yet you turn against , biting the hand that feeds. You deserve a smack too!" Lin Fan exclaid.
Lin Fan moved to the side, dodging the long sword.
His soaring right hand fiercely smacked Shangguan Min Yue’s buttocks.
The fiery sound of the smack was both painful and embarrassing.
"I’m going all out with you... Ah!"
"You scoundrel... Ah!"
"I’ll slaughter you... Ah!"
"You have no sha... Ah!"
Sharp cracks mixed with screams echoed.
After a dozen moves, both won’s buttocks were burning with pain.
Daring not to advance further, they also refrained from rubbing their sore spots.
All they could do was clench their teeth and glare at Lin Fan with flushed faces.
"Talking about revenge and hatred, I think you’re just delivering blessings. And not to ntion, quite perky ones at that!" Lin Fan chuckled as he rubbed his hands, looking at the two flushed faces.
Those eyes, almost spewing fire, had their own charm.
"You... you scoundrel, I will slaughter you soday!" Zhao Jiaqi bit her teeth, yet dared not advance any closer.
After all, the gap in their strengths was too wide.
A real fight with him was almost impossible.
Especially with their buttocks already swollen from the beating.
Another charge would just make them a laughing stock.
"Pikachu, can’t you be reasonable? It was you who tried to kill without any reason; I was already being polite by not leaving you in that cave," Lin Fan continued.
Lin Fan crossed his arms.
If it weren’t for his tily action,
the father and son of the Zheng Family would surely have died under her sword.
"Heigouzi is specialized in stealing national treasures, hanging out with such scum, what good person can you be? Not killing you wouldn’t quench the public’s anger. You’re a traitor yourself," Zhao Jiaqi retorted defiantly.
"You actually stole national treasures? That’s a death-worthy cri. How could you face your ancestors?"
Shangguan Min Yue, who had always seen Lin Fan in a different light,
now learned of yet another cri.
His eyes couldn’t help but blaze with anger.
"Junior Sister, you’ve misunderstood... completely misunderstood!"
Just when Lin Fan was at a loss for words.
Qi Qi and Li Yizhen, already supporting the pale-faced Luo Jiuying, ca out.
"Senior Brother, I saw it with my own eyes, how could there be any misunderstanding? He clearly followed Hei Gouzi into the treasure cave. That gang of thieves is notoriously despicable, each one deserving death."
Seeing her senior brother appear, Zhao Jiaqi imdiately pouted and walked over.
"Little Junior Sister, you’ve misunderstood Lin. How could he possibly steal a national treasure... I’ve already learned the whole process; he went there to save soone..."
Luo Jiuying hurriedly explained the whole story.
"If you still don’t believe it, you can go inquire at the Zheng Family. As Jiangning’s biggest troublemaker, his exhibition hall has all items registered, and there’s no way he would deal in national treasures. I can guarantee this with my life."
"He really went there to heal and save people?"
After hearing this, Zhao Jiaqi pouted.
Could it be that she really had wronged Lin Fan?
"Indeed, I can testify to that, as I was the one who was consulted initially. Zheng Tianxiang contracted a strange disease, and needed the primary source to cure it; hence, Lin went to protect the treasure."
Li Yizhen, as a firsthand witness to the events, also hurriedly spoke up.
"But... but... he didn’t say anything... how would I know."
Zhao Jiaqi pursed her lips, speaking reluctantly.
"You started with a killing move without giving a chance to explain. If it weren’t for your inferior skills, the three of us might well have been dead already."
Lin Fan rolled his eyes.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Jiaqi’s face flushed red.
But she didn’t know how to respond.
"Alright, alright, the misunderstanding is cleared up. We are all good people, we should not face each other with weapons anymore."
Luo Jiuying showed a slight smile, "Now, with a formidable enemy in front of us, we can’t afford any slack. We must unite against the external threats, making sure the invaders from Woguo never breach our great nation again."
"Senior Brother, I’m here for this matter as well. According to my information, Bai Qichao joined Woguo and then took Beitiao Qian Naizi from the Jiujui Sect as his master, mastering the Nine Chrysanthemum Evil Skill. He is absolutely not soone ordinary martial artists can handle. I am the Banshan Taoist, and such evil spirits should naturally be handled by personally, you need not worry."
Zhao Jiaqi sheathed her Soft Sword.
As a descendant of the Banshan Taoist line, banishing evil and upholding justice is her duty.
"I am also on a mission from my master to eradicate these villains. I will join you."
Putting Qingfeng Sword into its sheath, Shangguan Min Yue imdiately stepped forward.
Because they had a common enemy, they were also victims.
Upon eting, the two shared an unspoken understanding.
"Both of you, don’t be in a hurry. Since the enemy knows we plan to retaliate, they must have laid a net of heaven and earth. If we simply charge in, it might be troubleso. Maybe Lin should accompany you both instead."
Luo Jiuying naturally also sensed their aversion to Lin Fan.
Even though the misunderstanding had been resolved, their eyes still held a hint of hostility.
"Sure, let him witness the true capabilities of the Banshan Taoist!"
Expecting Zhao Jiaqi to refuse,
she unexpectedly agreed without any hesitation.
"For , it doesn’t matter."
Lin Fan naturally would not say much either.
After all, he too wanted to see how despicable the evil arts of Woguo could be.
"I... I also want to see for myself..."
Li Qiqi quickly raised her hand.
Two such beautiful won accompanying Lin Fan, she was quite uneasy.
"Qi Qi, do you think this is a walk in the park? With swords and blades flying everywhere, you’ll only be a burden to Lin if you go. Better stay ho."
Li Yizhen quickly spoke up to stop her.
Even if Lin Fan was more skilled, Li Qiqi knew nothing and could only drag him down.
"I..."
Li Qiqi bit her lip, wanting to argue, but feeling helpless.
She knew she really was a burden.
Unseen seeds quietly planted themselves in her heart.
"Stay ho and wait nicely, and when I return, we’ll have a good talk about why Shangguan Min Yue says you’re also a victim."
Lin Fan narrowed his eyes, looking at Li Qiqi, whose face blushed in embarrassnt.
Shangguan Min Yue had just said she had also been greatly hard.
"I... I..."
Li Qiqi lowered her head awkwardly, like a child who had done sothing wrong.
As it turned out, not so much ti had passed since she had tried to tarnish Lin Fan’s reputation.
And it had already been discovered.
