Seeing Yang Muyun's actions, Qu Rong smiled calmly, "Young Hero, don't be so agitated, I mean no harm."

Yang Muyun let go of the sword, but didn't let down his guard.

"According to our intelligence, Young Hero, you've arrived at Shattered Leaf City. "Originally, we wanted to find the young hero and meet up with my daughter."

"However, the Young Hero seems to have some connections with the Gui Family. The moment we entered the Shattered Leaf City, he moved into the residence of the Gui Family. The Gui Family is considered to be a reputable power in the Shattered Leaf City, so we don't dare to act rashly."

"It's been so long, we haven't found a chance to meet. That's why we took advantage of this opportunity to do such a thing. "

"Young Hero, you should know as well. In the martial arts world, how could there be no enemies? Therefore, there are still plenty of people who would want to harm Cui Cui."

"That's why I had to come up with this plan." Qu Rong cupped her fist, "I'm really sorry for not knowing Young Hero in advance."

After Cui Bong finished speaking, Yang Muyun felt that he had been a bit negligent, because once he arrived at Shattered Leaf City, he was thinking about how to take revenge on Cui Rong. However, as a father, he missed out on Cui Rong's worry and love for his daughter.

However, he didn't come here for revenge.

As the saying goes, for a gentleman to take revenge, ten years is not too late. Moreover, from the looks of it, Cui Bong actually didn't recognize him. That would be even better. He had only come today to take Cui Cui away.

"I'm taking Cui Cui away." Yang Muyun said in an indifferent tone, not revealing any of his emotions.

"Young hero, you want to take my daughter away?" Cui Bong was stunned. He thought that the young man before him who had killed his way into his dock was just thinking that he had taken Cui Cui away and was seeking justice with his hot-bloodedness.

However, who would've thought that he already knew Cui Cui was his daughter. Furthermore, his purpose for coming to dock with him was very clear, and that was to bring Cui Cui away with him.

"I know she's your daughter." Yang Muyun replied, "But Cui Cui suddenly disappeared, and we have a lot of people worrying about her, and they are still waiting for our news."

"Then Young Hero and his entourage can come and visit her at Three Ships Dock 18 at any time." Cui Rong smiled, "Our Three Markets and Eighteen Docks will be welcoming you at any time."

"No need. I told you, I'm going to take Cui Cui away." Yang Muyun thought for a moment, "Not long later, if Cui Cui wants to go home, I will personally send her back."

"Could it be that you don't trust my strength?" Yang Muyun asked again.

When Yang Muyun had just spoken up to this point, the expressions of everyone below the stage changed. Each of them pulled out a variety of weapons in preparation, ready to fight at a moment's notice.

Cui Rong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, because he really didn't know how to reply.

If one admitted that Yang Muyun's strength was extraordinary, then it would be equivalent to agreeing to his request. If Yang Muyun's strength wasn't good enough, then it would mean that the entire three docks and eighteen docks were just a bunch of trash and that so many people weren't a match for Yang Muyun.

"This …" Cui Hua pondered, "Young Hero's strength, of course I believe it. Young Hero already has such strength at such a young age, he can be said to be a top youth in the martial arts world."

"However, Cui Cui is, after all, my daughter. Therefore, she can be said to be the best person to be staying at dock eighteen of the three boats." "No matter how strong a young hero is, he is unable to change this fact. Children are always best off by their parents' side."

"Young Hero, don't you think so?" "Let's not talk about anything else. Just tell me about Young Hero's parents. They must have loved you the most, right?"

Qu Rong smiled as he slowly walked over, leaving Yang Muyun with no way to refute his words.

Yang Muyun wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, he didn't say anything because what Qu Rong said made sense. Cui Cui was his daughter, and he would never be able to part with her.

For a father and his daughter, blood was thicker than water.

If Cui Hua and Cui Cui didn't want to, Yang Muyun had no reason to force them to separate. After all, they were family, and the only one she was going to be able to go to was the Eighteen Moats.

However, Yang Muyun was not a person who easily gave up, "There's really no discussion at all?"

Cui Rong nodded, "I hope that Young Hero will forgive me, and understand my feelings as a father."

Suddenly, Yang Muyun unsheathed his sword and pointed it at Cui Banyan, "Then what if I insist on taking her away?"

At this moment, Qu Rong's expression finally changed. What he had just done could be said to have given Yang Muyun face. However, he never expected Yang Muyun to be so stubborn. He refused to listen.

"Young Hero, are you serious?" A cold glint appeared in Cui Fong's eyes. "Let me advise Young Hero that this place is the Eighteenth Dock of the Three Boats and that this is Cui Cui's home. Therefore, she won't go with you and I won't hand her over to you!"

The two exchanged blows, neither giving in to the other. The air around them was stifling.

"Of course I'm serious. Are you worthy to be Cui Cui's father?" Yang Muyun exploded out all of his Zhen Qi. In the air, he and Qu Biao's Zhen Qi clashed with each other, repelling each other.

"Am I not worthy?" Cui Rong didn't make a move and instead asked.

"I can't protect my daughter in front of my enemies and let her be taken away. It's unknown whether she's dead or alive."

"Take your daughter with you in your own territory and injure her."

"You said that you're qualified to be Cui Cui's father?" Yang Muyun enunciated each word as he looked at Cui Banyan.

After hearing what Yang Muyun had said, the light in Cui Rong's eyes dimmed, and then he lowered his head, "Young Hero is right, this father of mine was indeed derelict in his duties."

"I was indeed careless when Cui Cui was taken away. It was my fault." "But you said that she was injured is nonsense. Even if I was injured, I would not let her be injured."

"Hmph." Yang Muyun didn't want to argue with Qu Rong further, so he simply repeated what the old beggar had told him, and told it to Qu Rong.

"Hahaha." Unexpectedly, Cui Rong burst out laughing, "Young hero, it seems like you've misunderstood something …"

As soon as she finished speaking, Cui Rong stretched out her left hand, which she had kept in her clothes all this time, and shined it towards Yang Muyun.

His hand was covered in a white cloth band, and within the white, there was a tinge of red. It seemed that he had not fully recovered from his injuries.

"This …" When Yang Muyun saw Cui Rong's left hand, he suddenly realized something.

The old beggar didn't lie to him. When Cui Bong returned with Cui Cui.

It was indeed dripping with blood. Cui Hua didn't lie to him, and Cui Cui wasn't hurt either.

But why did it sound different to Yang Muyun?

These four words, "If you care, then it's a mess".

When Yang Muyun found out that Cui Hua had returned with blood on her hands, she assumed that Cui Cui had been injured. That was why she was so furious and charged into the Eighteenth Dock.

But he didn't expect it. The one injured wasn't Cui Cui, but rather, Cui Bong.
