Chapter 242: Chapter 231: ng Xiuluo Sneaks into New City Sect
ng Xiuluo asked again, “Who is that girl beside him?”
A subordinate replied, “She should be Wei Sisan’s daughter.”
“She’s quite pretty!”
“I heard that Wei Sisan plans to betroth his daughter to him.”
“Well, he must not be a lecher after all. If he were indeed one, Wei Sisan wouldn’t even think of tossing his own daughter into a fire pit,” ng Xiuluo took another glance and said, “The two of them seem to be getting along quite well. The only thing left is whether they’ll be eating together.”
“Why are you interested in their relationship?” Xiang Yi asked.
“If their relationship is solid, it would be easier for
to understand the situation inside the New City Sect.”
“Aren’t you taking a big risk by trying to infiltrate New City Sect?”
“Nothing in this world is without risk,” ng Xiuluo said to his subordinates who were disguised as gatekeepers, “I presu you all understand what I an.”
His subordinates nodded their heads.
“Rember, we’ll be erging from that corner later. Be conspicuous and don’t fuss about it.”
Unconsciously, the two of them had been lost in thought for over two hours. Ye Chen began to feel tired and stood up saying, “Let’s go.”
“We haven’t walked across the street yet,” Ling’er pointed to the brothel across the street.
“Let’s not, let’s save that opportunity for later. If we’re really going inside, you wouldn’t be able to co with ,” Ye Chen replied.
“Hehe, and here I thought you always co out precisely at night to do sothing.”
“You must despise .”
“It’s a waste of ti, a waste of life.”
“Really? I feel the sa way too,” said Ye Chen. “In truth, I hoped to see if I could have any luck with won. Unfortunately, my luck hasn’t been that great since I t you.”
“Did I affect your luck?”
“I don’t know, maybe you’re just bad luck.”
A foot swung over with a shout, “Dare to call
bad luck, I’ll throw you into the river with my Shadowless Kick, believe it or not.”
“Fine, just don’t fall in yourself.”
A yell ca from behind them, “Catch her!” A shabbily dressed girl ran out from the opposite street corner and plunged into Ye Chen’s arms. She almost knocked Ye Chen over, but luckily Ye Chen had taken a Horse Stance, and wasn’t so easily toppled. He reached out to support the girl who seed about to fall.
Could this be a lucky romantic encounter?
The girl looked up with big bright eyes over her peach-shaped face, and a pitiful look that made one want to hold her tight. She darted fearful glances about and hid behind Ye Chen, holding onto him and yelling, “Help…,” blocking the people charging at her.
The gatekeepers, ard with long poles, rushed forward. They shouted, “Where do you think you’re going, girl?”
Ye Chen positioned himself protectively in front of the girl as a group of n charged him, trying to yank the girl hiding behind him.
The girl clearly did not want to comply.
Ye Chen shouted, “What are you trying to do?”
The n brandishing poles retorted, “She’s one of us,” they asserted boldly, intending to recover her.
“Who are you?”
“We’re from Dugu Manor. Scared now, lad?”
Ye Chen was not one to get scared easily, he scoffed, “What are you trying to do with this girl?”
“She was purchased by Dugu Manor.”
“Her family’s master tried to sexually assault ,” the girl behind him cried out, clutching her clothes.
A subordinate responded, “You’re already sold to our master, you belong to us.”
“I disagree,” said ng Xiuluo, who had been standing by the side.
“Hehe, even you disagree? Your father has already accepted our silver,” they taunted.
“That drunk, that gambler, he’s not my father!”
“Hehe, so just because you say he isn’t makes it so? We paid a huge sum to buy you, and you want to renege now that there’s a stamp of your handprint!” The man let two of his cohorts to seize the girl.
“It wasn’t my will, it was you who forced .”
The petit girl hid behind Ye Chen, tightly clinging onto his waist as if he was her lifeline. She was already crying out of fear.
In all but a mont, without even launching any noticeable moves, it was as if Ye Chen used so kind of dark arts, those who rushed towards him were knocked down.
The n got up from the ground and picked up their clubs, considering to charge once again, but they were no match for Ye Chen.
“Who are you? You can only protect her temporarily, not forever. I guess you’re tired of living.”
Ling’er, who was hot-blooded since young, jumped out and shouted, “We’re from the New City Sect!”
The n fell back a few steps, but one of them plucked up the courage and said, “That doesn’t matter, we need to be fair here. We paid her father a lot of money and bought her, she is our property.”
The girl shrieked, “He’s the one who accepted your money, you should demand it back from him.”
A man coldly chuckled, “Just as you said, many things in this world can always be changed, don’t you understand the commandnt of obeying one’s parents?”
At this mont, a large group of people rushed over. It was the young master of Dugu Manor with a large crowd, shouting, “Where’s the girl, I am going to break her leg for daring to hit .” He arrived with a swollen eye.
The n from earlier pointed towards Ye Chen’s back.
