"Mingyue, where are you?" Yuwen Yi, who was standing in an inn of a small town along the Yangtze River, looked at the crescent moon in the sky. Wang Chuan City's City Lord, Qin Ba Xi's dictum still rang in everyone's ears. The people of the martial arts world were in a dangerous situation. The men of the four great families were gathered in Zhenjiang, while Qin Yue'er was alone in the whirlpool. There was no telling what kind of commotion she would cause. A storm was brewing, and the rumours in the martial arts world were that the evil Heaven's Execution Squad would not give up on their evil intentions. They would stir up trouble everywhere, and in the next few days, they would appear to control the river, causing the wind and clouds to rise again. If he encountered them, it would be another fierce battle. The bright moon sent a thousand li away. He didn't know where his good niece was at this very moment. He didn't know if she was like him, looking up at the new moon in the sky. Yue Er, Yue Er, you are already such a big girl, why are you still acting like a child that doesn't know how to leave home? Do you know how many members of the Qin family are worried about you? You, as a girl, are so hungry that you might cause some trouble if you were to be wronged and feel a little disgusted. No matter how high your martial arts might be, you would still fear a kitchen knife. The consequences of encountering those people with ill intentions in the martial arts world were truly unimaginable.

Yuwen Yi Chun's expression was somber and melancholy. Looking at the people walking in groups of twos and threes in the dark of the night, she couldn't help but fall into deep thought. The night was silent and full of life. Who knew how many nights like this had passed? The turmoil in the martial arts world did not stop; there was no end to it. He couldn't help but ask, "Where are we? How far is it from Zhenjiang Manor?"

Beside him stood a guard named Yang Zongping. In his thirties, this person's appearance was average. If one were to look at him in the crowd, he or she would have disappeared from sight. However, this person had photographic memory. Furthermore, he had a calm and reserved temperament that allowed him to do things perfectly. That was why he stood out and became one of his trusted aides.

He replied, "This is a small town in Huzhou, it belongs to the Jiangnan Pingyi Sect. "We are still several hundred Li away from the Residence of Zhenjiang. We should arrive ten days later along the river."

"Ten days! Ten more days!" Yuwen Yi Chun's expression changed as he murmured, "Mingyue, you must be careful. I'll pick you up in ten days. "Even if the sky falls, your uncle will be holding it up. I, Yuwen Yichun, will tear anyone who dares to bully my niece into ten thousand pieces!" The ice-cold killing intent in his eyes was gone. That world-famous Flowing Cloud Divine Sword was flashing with a cold light; it was clear and bright. No matter who saw this person's back, they couldn't ignore this cold-blooded middle-aged man. His sword, like his name, had long since spread throughout the world. With a single sword in hand, his sword stirred up the world, projecting the endless elegance and extraordinary legend of the martial arts world. In this world, there were not many people who dared to make a move in front of him. He could even count them with both hands. Nan Jun, Jiang Hao, and his senior brother Li Guangling were also evenly matched. Marshal Hong Beifei could also fight for a while, and he was also a rare natural enemy. It could be said that he, Yuwen Yichun, had roamed the martial arts world for decades and had killed every single one of them with the Flowing Cloud Divine Sword.

On the other side, Qin Yue'er from Zhenjiang's manor was facing the biggest crisis of her life. It was because her experience in the martial arts world was too shallow, so she had to be on guard against others. She was an expert in martial arts, so when she faced ordinary people, she was actually careless. She was tricked by a villain and drank the stupefied drug in a daze. She slept unconscious, like a dead pig being manipulated.

Early in the morning of the next day, the sounds of birds chirping outside the window could be heard as the sky brightened. It was as if she couldn't move her limbs at all. She saw the incomparably ugly Tao Dalang approaching her with a lustful smile, reaching out his evil palms and ripping off her clothes — she screamed in horror as she rose up from the bed, shivering in the midst of the nightmare. Cold sweat drenched her clothes as she looked around in fear.

She looked out the window at the bright sunlight shining through the mottled leaves onto the small square of land, making it hard for people to open their eyes. She lifted the blanket in a hurry and looked at her body in fear. She was ready to put on her clothes but suddenly remembered that she was too sleepy yesterday. She didn't take off her clothes and went to sleep. Ye Zichen looked at his underwear and exclaimed once again. Who exactly did he get to take off last night? When he thought of this, he felt even more terrified than if he had just bumped into a ghost in broad daylight. Every hair on his body stood on end, and he couldn't help but shiver.

She woke up with a start and found her clothes and dressed quickly. When he was about to go get the moon washing knife that he never left, his right hand was empty …

When she looked again, even her favorite blade was gone. That was a treasure that he had carried with him for many years, and it was the same as the Great Waves Ferghana Horse, "Wind Chasing", that he loved dearly in his heart. After waking up, she lost her horse and her saber. She was so anxious that tears fell from her eyes. This year, not only did she have to roam the world, but she also had to suffer hardships and encounter setbacks. This was unimaginable in the past. For a moment, he was struck hard, and tears began to fall profusely.

When she walked out of her room, she saw that all three of the Tao family members were at home in the courtyard. Tao Dalang was sitting on a small stool, basking in the sun. Old Man Tao and his wife were also drying their grains in the yard, which made them feel quite comfortable.

When Tao Dalang saw Qin Yue-er's figure appear, Muggle's face trembled in fright. A series of intense coughs attracted the couple's attention. They immediately surrounded her and greeted, "Miss Qin, you're awake. "Great, did you sleep well last night?"

Looking at their warm smiles, Qin Yue'er said uneasily, "It's not bad. Only — nothing strange happened last night? "

"No, no, absolutely not! We were busy late last night. I've already heard about something. " Old Madame Tao hastened to reply, but the latter part of her sentence was too much for her to say, so she kept her mouth shut.

Qin Yue'er was alarmed. She thought back to last night's nightmare and felt her heart palpitating. Seeing that the other party was keeping his mouth shut and didn't want to say anything, she looked at the family of three and asked, "Are you all not busy today? Why are they all at home? "

"It's fine, it's fine. Are you hungry? Let me get you something to eat. " Old Mrs. Tao rubbed her hands together and took a rag to the kitchen to light a fire.

"I'm not hungry. Did you see my moon washing knife and horse? " Qin Yue'er's heart was empty after losing her beloved item. How could she still have the mood to eat? She couldn't help but ask.

The three members of the Tao family shook their heads as neatly as a rattle. It was quite interesting. However, how could Qin Yue'er be in the mood to joke? She sighed and said, "Ai, how come you don't know anything? So what do you know? "My moon blade is right by the head of the bed. How can it disappear so easily?" Seeing how they were at a loss of what to do, Zhang Xuan felt dismayed. Thus, he decided to go out and look around. However, he was stopped by them and refused to let her leave.

Qin Yue'er was extremely unhappy and coldly shouted, "What do you want? Now that I'm going out, you guys are stopping me? "

"You can't leave, Miss Qin!" Tao Dalang stood in front of her, refusing to leave.

Qin Yue-er felt baffled. This family was still fine yesterday, but what nerves did they have today? She said angrily, "Leg on my body, it's my business if you don't want to leave. "You guys are too kind, aren't you? I'm not a person, why aren't you letting me go?"

"Miss Qin, you really can't leave. If you leave, that guy won't let us go. "Please be merciful and have mercy on us!" The Tao family surrounded her and told her she had nowhere else to go.

Qin Yue'er was puzzled, "Who is that person?" How could you be so afraid? "

Suddenly, a tall and thin figure appeared in the yard. He was wearing a grey robe and had lost an arm. He said, "Miss Yue'er, I've finally found you." The newcomer was one of the proficient members of the Overlord Flower division in Wang Chuan City. He had a one-armed blade, Xue Tao, and his face was cold and unyielding. He had a short blade at his waist. When the Tao family members saw his appearance, they trembled in fear. It was as though a mouse that saw a cat was hiding behind Qin Yue'er with a face full of fear.

When Qin Yue'er saw him, she rejoiced in her heart. She walked over and knocked him on the chest. Every time you look like someone owes you money. It's good that he's here, I was wondering why I haven't seen you all for such a long time. What is she doing now? "

Xue Tao's expression was calm. He looked at this mischievous young miss and felt that there was nothing he could do about it. She replied, "Miss Meng, she is already on her way here. She should arrive in Zhenjiang in a few days. She is also very concerned about you, Miss. "

Qin Yue'er let out a long sigh. She didn't think that she would stay in Zhenjiang for so long. Her family and friends would definitely be worried for her. She hoped that the matters here would be settled soon, or else she really would not be able to leave peacefully.

At this time, Xue Tao walked past her and looked at the three Tao family members. His gaze was fierce as he coldly yelled, "You little scumbags actually dare to plot against my Wangchuan City's thousand gold. Today, I will not forgive you!"

"Miss Qin, please spare our lives!" The entire family was so scared that their faces turned ashen. With a plop, they all kneeled on the ground and repeatedly kowtowed as they simultaneously pleaded for mercy. Qin Yue'er didn't understand. She couldn't help but ask in surprise, "What are you doing?"

The members of the Tao family were hesitant and had no face to respond. They knew very well what their despicable actions were.

"The good things you did last night, and you still need me to use the knife, then you will know how powerful it is." The one-armed blade, Xue Tao, had a cold expression as he said, "Since you can't even say it yourself, then I'll ask you. You only need to answer yes or no." Regardless of what they thought, he continued, "You drugged the food and wine last night, didn't you?" Speaking of which, it was quite a coincidence. Yesterday, he had been hurrying through the night all the way until here. It was already late at night, and he was preparing to find a house to stay the night. The scene of him passing by the window and encountering Tao Dalang's evil scheme infuriated him. He flew into the window and knocked Tao Dalang out with a palm strike. Seeing that the eldest young mistress was fine and sleeping peacefully, he did not wake her up. He originally wanted to kill this entire family, but when he thought about how Eldest Miss would kill him to keep his mouth shut when she woke up tomorrow morning, he really couldn't explain himself. So leave their heads to breathe on their necks. Now that Qin Yue'er had woken up, she could clearly see how despicable and despicable these people were. If he had arrived half a step too late last night, he would have died a hundred years ago.

How could Old Lady Tao admit to such a heinous crime? She denied it, "No, no, I've decided not to do anything that would let Miss Qin down. "How could we have drugged a dish? Then wouldn't everyone in our family be in trouble?!"

"You're still not admitting it? Since you dare to do it, why don't you admit it?" Do you really think you can force me to make a move? " When Xue Tao saw his family's obstinate expressions, a cold light flashed in his hand. He heard Tao Dalang's miserable shriek, and saw Tao Dalang hugging his shoulder as he fell to the ground, blood flowing out. He was in so much pain that he was on the verge of death. Killing intent surged in his eyes as he placed the blade against Tao Dalang's neck and roared, "You all did good deeds. If you don't speak of it, I'll chop your son to death right now!"

"Spare my life!" Seeing that this person was so ruthless, and that her family had indeed committed an immoral act, Old Madam Tao could not deny it. He no longer harbored any illusions and cried out, "Isn't it enough for us to say? We drank the medicine in the wine cup, then Miss Qin went back to her room to sleep. We really didn't want to do anything. My son is not young anymore and has never been able to get a wife. We really didn't have any other way out. We just wanted to get our grandsons together as soon as possible. Please, let us go. We really didn't know that Miss Qin was someone with status. I'm sorry, I'm sorry! " The truth was revealed.

Qin Yue'er shuddered at the thought of the consequences. She had traveled in the martial arts world for so many years, but unexpectedly, she had been caught in a trap and nearly lost her reputation last night. She regretted it for life. If not for Xue Tao's timely appearance, she would really be finished. For a moment, her blood was boiling and she felt a splitting headache. She no longer cared about these filthy things and left without looking back. This time, the profound lesson was enough for her to remember for her entire life. She once again experienced the evil and evil intentions of the people in the martial arts world.

Not long after, a heart-wrenching scream came from behind him, one after another, breaking the hearing. The lives of millions of people in this world were filled with all sorts of fates, karma, and retribution. Just how many opportunities did life have to start over again?

Writing a novel is really an exhausting, technical task. I have been persevering and getting more and more exciting as I write. I hope that everyone will support me and vote for me. This way, I will have more motivation to do so. The rest of the chapters would become more and more popular as all sorts of people would come up on stage to fight each other. Sometimes, I admire myself for being so talented. I guarantee my originality and hope that everyone will like it. I can also give some advice and see where else I can go.
