"Junior Sister, look, I’ve gotten it back for you."
The man excitedly returned the purple-gold silk ribbon to the girl.
"You think you’re worthy of competing with for sothing?"
With the purple-gold ribbon in her hands, the girl looked down arrogantly at Luo ili, who lay on the ground.
"What gives you the right to hit people?"
The young Taoist who had appeared earlier rushed out, looking indignantly at the girl and her group.
"You little bastard, you dare defy the people of Dragon Martial Arts Hall? Believe it or not, we can kill you."
Several youths encircled the young Taoist.
"Stop."
The middle-aged man in a gray robe who had led them in stopped them, but didn’t scold them much, instead he said to the young Taoist.
"They are with . Stay out of this."
The young Taoist said sowhat resentfully.
"Uncle Master, the Purple Gold Protective Talisman is the most effective amulet in Green Dragon Temple. Unlike other amulets, to take it away, one must pray here for seven days and nights without food and water. This female benefactor has already kneeled here for seven days and nights; she rightfully deserves to take this amulet. These people are insincere in their spiritual practice, why should they..."
"Shut up."
The middle-aged man in the gray robe imdiately beca furious and scolded the young Taoist.
"I am the supervisor. I know the rules of Green Dragon Temple far better than you do. When was it your turn to question ?"
"The girl here is the young lady of Dragon Martial Arts Hall. Dragon Martial Arts Hall is the largest donor to Green Dragon Temple, donating millions annually and has introduced many high-level followers. The head of the hall is a secular disciple of Dragon Tiger Mountain. Even our temple master must address him as a fellow Daoist. The girl by my side is his beloved daughter, Xinran. Is there a problem with giving her this Purple Gold Protective Talisman?"
"Dragon Martial Arts Hall?"
Upon learning that these people were from the Dragon Martial Arts Hall, the young Taoist’s face imdiately showed so fear, but he still said sowhat unwillingly.
"But, that still doesn’t an they can break the rules."
"Rules, you’re discussing rules with ?"
"Alright, I’ll let you see the rules of the Dragon Martial Arts Hall."
"Brother Qingshan, please."
Xinran said arrogantly.
"Alright."
The oldest man imdiately approached the young Taoist.
"What are you going to do?"
The young Taoist looked sowhat panicked.
"Heh, let educate you about the rules."
The man delivered a heavy punch to the chest of the young Taoist, sending him flying several ters, spitting blood. Then the other young disciples rushed up and began beating him until he was bloodied and unable to rise from the ground.
The middle-aged man in the gray robe said nothing.
"Uncle Yun Xiang, thank you. I shall take my leave now,"
Xinran said her farewells, ready to leave.
Zhang Xiaoshan stood in the shadows watching, his expression unreadable.
Under other circumstances, he would never allow Luo ili to be treated unjustly, but at that mont, he hesitated.
What was he to Luo ili, and why should he interfere?
Just as the people from Dragon Martial Arts Hall were walking out the door, Luo ili, lying in a muddy puddle, suddenly exploded.
"That, that amulet was for which I have kneeled here for seven days and nights, asking for Little Shan’s safety. You have no right to take it away."
Like a furious beast, she roared and lunged at Xinran, grabbing her arm and biting fiercely into her wrist.
"Ah."
With a scream of pain from Xinran, the purple-gold ribbon was snatched away by Luo ili.
"Bitch, you, you dare to steal my thing and bite ?"
Xinran, enraged, kicked Luo ili hard in the stomach, knocking her to the ground.
At that mont, Luo ili felt intense pain in her stomach, but she didn’t care; she just clutched the purple-gold silk ribbon tightly to her chest.
"This is for Little Shan. I kneeled for seven days and nights just to wish for his safety. Nobody can take it away."
She said stubbornly.
Even faced with a group of formidable people, there was no fear in her eyes.
"Boom!"
Standing in the corridor, Zhang Xiaoshan’s brain thundered as if struck by lightning.
"ili, she... she..."
"She kneeled here for seven days and nights, enduring even the heavy rain, never retreating even under the threats of the powerful, all to beg for a talisman to ensure my safety?"
"She sacrificed so much... all for ?"
In an instant, all of Zhang Xiaoshan’s grievances and sorrows transford into guilt and anger.
He had misunderstood Luo ili.
He had failed to recognize her genuine feelings.
And let these bastards bully her...
"Damn it."
A terrifying surge of rage rose within him.
In the courtyard, Xinran was completely provoked by Luo ili.
"You wretched woman, you dare bite ? I’ll beat you to death!"
She rushed forward to slap Luo ili.
"Ah..."
Luo ili, frightened, closed her eyes, but gripped the Purple Gold Protective Talisman even tighter.
"Ah.
The next mont, a scream echoed through the courtyard.
