Chapter 30 – Partings and reunions are impermanent, Part 11
With the knowledge that Yang Guo only had Xiao Longnü on his mind, the two Cheng-Lu girls had been jealous. Now that they actually t Xiao Longnü, they couldn’t help feeling inferior. Both thought to themselves, “How can I ever compare to her?”
Lu Wushuang asked, “Brother Yang, what’s happened to your arm? Has the wound healed?”
“It’s already healed. Soone cut it off,” replied Yang Guo.
Lu Wushuang asked angrily, “Which evil villain did it? That person must have used a low and despicable trick. Was it that wretched witch?”
Suddenly a cold voice from behind said, “You defa people behind their back. Isn’t that lower and more despicable?”
Lu Wushuang was startled. She turned head back and saw a beautiful young girl. It was Guo Fu with a sword in her hand, looking enraged. Standing by her were several n and won.
Lu Wushuang was puzzled. She said, “I didn’t scold you. I was scolding the evil person who cut off Brother Yang’s arm.”
With a ‘shua’ sound, Guo Fu pulled her sword halfway from its sheath. She said, “His arm was cut off by . I’ve already apologized, and my parents have already punished . Now you people are scolding behind my back…” Having said this, her eyes turned red. She felt she was wronged by these people.
Days ago Wu Santong, Guo Fu, Yelu Qi, and the Wu brothers hid from the mountain fires in the creek. They waited for the fires to die down and then got out of the water to et with Huang Rong, Wanyan Ping and Yelu Yan. They then all ca to the Passionless Valley. The group arrived here long before Yang Guo and the others but they were searching the areas around the valley, trying to find the Indian monk and Zhu Ziliu, without any success. That’s why they were delayed. As for Li Mochou, her disciple, and the Cheng-Lu cousins, they were led into the valley by Zhou Botong.
Huang Rong, Wu Santong and the others quickly went to greet Reverend Yideng, and they all exchanged greetings. Although Cheng Ying had never t Huang Rong before, she knew this martial sister by reputation and greatly admired her. She imdiately went over and kowtowed with utmost respect. She called out, “Martial sister!”
Knowing from Yang Guo that years ago her father had accepted another female disciple, now she found out that it was this extrely beautiful girl. As Huang Rong asked about her father and learned that he was strong and healthy, she was delighted.
The disciples in green had been watching them from the edge of the woods. Now seeing that the enemies from outside all gathered, making a noisy commotion, they didn’t dare to block them. Instead, they ran back to report the matter to Qiu Qianchi.
Guo Fu and Lu Wushuang glared at each other angrily, with mutual hatred. As Guo Fu heard her mother order her to greet Cheng Ying, she was not pleased at all. She had to force herself to say ‘Martial Uncle’.”
Yang Guo and Xiao Longnü were standing in each other’s arms on the other side. Yang Guo looked at Guo Xiang in Xiao Longnü’s arms and said, “Long’er, let’s give the little girl back to her mother.”
Xiao Longnü lifted up Guo Xiang and kissed her on the cheek. Then she walked over to hand the little girl back to Huang Rong. She said, “Mada Guo, your child.”
Huang Rong thanked her and took the little girl. From the ti the girl was born until now, this was the first ti Huang Rong had her child firmly in her hands. There were no words that could describe her happiness and joy.
Yang Guo turned to Guo Fu and clearly said, “Miss Guo, your little sister is well. I didn’t use her to trade for the antidote to save my life.”
Guo Fu retorted angrily, “My mother is here. Of course, you don’t dare to. But if you didn’t have such intention, what did you bring my sister here for?”
In this situation, Yang Guo in the forr days would have quarreled with her. But his encounters with life and death during these past few months had changed him. Paying no attention to her, he only let out a dry laugh and walked away with Xiao Longnü.
Lu Wushuang looked at Guo Xiang and said to Cheng Ying, “Is this your martial sister’s little girl? I hope she won’t grow up to be evil and vicious.”
It was impossible for Guo Fu to not understand that the words were ant to attack her, and so she retorted, “What business of yours is it if my sister becos evil and vicious? What are you trying to say?”
Lu Wushuang said, “I didn’t speak to you. Everybody has the right to deal with evil and vicious people. How could it not be my business?” Lu Wushuang only had Yang Guo on her mind. Having seen that Yang Guo’s arm was chopped off, she and Cheng Ying were very angry. But she couldn’t control her temper like her cousin did. Even though it was in front of many people, she still had to let it show.
Guo Fu was furious. Grabbing her sword, she shouted, “You cripple…”
Huang Rong yelled, “Fu’er, don’t be rude!”
