Ren Cong did not want to be pestered by the government and waste more time. He returned to the inn and asked the waiter to bring hot water. He took a quick bath, changed his clothes, packed his luggage, paid the bill to the owner, and pulled out the big white horse. He left the inn in a hurry and left the city.
A gray cloud in the sky seemed to be monitoring him. It kept chasing the white horse, and from time to time, a few white pigeons flew over its head.
There were very few pedestrians on the road, and only the sound of horse hooves could be heard. Ren Cong turned his head from time to time to see if anyone had caught up. Fortunately, other than the rolling yellow dust from his big white horse, there was no sign of any horse team chasing him. They were about a hundred miles away from Jinzhou City. Ren Cong's hanging heart slowly calmed down.
He wasn't afraid of the government. He just didn't want to cause trouble and ruin his plan. If he was called by the government for questioning, it would not be clear in a day or two. Therefore, he had to leave Jinzhou City immediately and leave this troublesome place.
"Ah! Running around aimlessly like this isn't a solution. Am I heading in the direction of Shen Yang? Or the opposite? No! I have to ask someone."
Just nice! They arrived at a small town. Ren Cong went to a small hotel on the street and sat down.
"Sir, what do you need?”
The shop owner greeted him warmly.
"Ah! Please give me a catty of red kaoliang, two braised pork legs, and a catty of braised beef! Even if there were beef dumplings, he would also order a plate!”
Ren Cong replied.
"Alright! Please wait a moment."
the shop owner sang.
Soon, the shopkeeper brought over some food and wine and placed them on the table. He said politely to Ren Cong,"
"Please enjoy your meal!"
"Excuse me, boss, is this the way to Shen Yang?”
Ren Cong asked.
"Not bad! It was to Shen Yang. This place was not far from Shen Yang!”
The shop owner replied enthusiastically.
"Haha! Thank you, boss!”
Ren Cong thanked the boss politely.
The excited Ren Cong raised his wine glass to his mouth. A pair of delicate hands covered his eyes from behind. Ren Cong nimbly grabbed a ball of extremely elastic muscle.
"Let's see if you can still tease me!" He turned around and saw a girl wearing a veil.
"Let go!"
The lady was shocked! He said in a low voice, ashamed.
Ren Cong's face instantly turned red. It turned out that he had grabbed the girl's **. He hurriedly retracted his hand as if he had been electrocuted and said,
"I'm really sorry. I didn't mean it!”
A woman's voice said,"
"Little Lord, my daughter's * ss has been ruined by you. What do you think?”
Only then did Ren Cong see clearly that not only was there a lady behind him, but there was also a beautiful woman dressed in luxurious and noble clothes beside him, as well as a large group of beautiful women.
"Ah! So it's you guys. Why are you here?”
Ren Cong asked in embarrassment.
The woman said,"
"Young Master, you are truly a righteous person. You ruined my daughter's groom search ceremony and then disappeared without a trace. Today, you took advantage of my daughter again. You want to apologize and then refuse? As a man, it was the right thing to do. You've taken advantage of us, and you want us to stand here and talk to you? Isn't this a little unfair?"
"Ah! Please take a seat, Madam and Miss. If you want to eat something, just ask!”
Ren Cong said as if he had committed a grave crime.
"This is more like my son-in-law! Haha!"
The woman smiled in satisfaction.
"What son-in-law? I've already made it clear to all of you. I already have a fiancée in the south waiting for me to go back and get married. I can't be a heartless person!”
Ren Cong said seriously to the woman.
The woman smiled warmly and said,"
"That's your own business. We can't care so much. Now that you have a first wife, my daughter will suffer a little. She can just be your second wife. Haha!"
"No! I'll have to ask my Sister Ling about it and see how she deals with it. I can't make the decision on this matter. Moreover, I have serious matters to attend to now. No matter what, let me finish my business first!”
Ren Cong insisted.
The woman said,"
"Alright, let's not talk about this for now. Do you want to destroy the Ten Tigers of Manchuria? Then we'll wait until you kill them. We can split up and settle scores with them, right? Then won't it be resolved quickly?"
Ren Cong raised his fist and said,"
"No way! That's my own business. I must kill them one by one with my own hands and take revenge for my loved ones!”
The woman said kindly,"
"Alright then! We won't interfere!"
Ren Cong asked the innkeeper to arrange another table for the girls to sit down and eat. He, the woman and the girl sat at a table. Ren Cong poured three cups of wine and handed them to the woman with both hands."
"Madam, this cup of wine is considered as junior's ignorance. I apologize for offending you!”
Ren Cong picked up another cup for the girl and said,"
"Young Lady, why don't you take off your mask and eat and drink properly?”
The girl said gently,"
"Of course I want to take it off, but it's inconvenient for my hands. Young Master, please help me take it off!”
Ren Cong smiled cleverly and said,"
"I won't fall for that trick again! It was enough to be like this once. Haha! Take it yourself!"
"It seems that Young Master has already removed Young Lady's veil?”
The girl asked Ren Cong seriously.
Ren Cong told the mother and daughter in detail about how Gai Yiling's veil was unveiled, and the mother and daughter burst into laughter.
The news of Ren Cong killing the two tigers Lu Zhankui and Yan Cheng in Jinzhou spread throughout the entire pass on the same day. Yu Quan, the Eight Tigers in Dalian, called Bao Yuncheng, the Seven Tigers, and rushed to Shengyang.
Yu Quan guessed that Ren Cong's next target would be the two tigers, Lei Wu and Lei Tianba, from Shen Yang. Therefore, as he rushed to Shen Yang, he sent people to inform Old Five, Old Six, Old Nine, and Old Ten to prepare for the situation.
Yu Quan and Bao Yuncheng rushed for an entire day and night before they finally arrived in Shen Yang. They arrived at Lei Wu and Lei Batian's Lei Family Manor.
The Lei Family Manor was very famous in the local area. The manor's city tower was built entirely of large stone strips and was at least ten feet tall. The pavilion-like gatehouse on the stone wall was exquisitely carved. The dragons, phoenixes, and peacocks were lifelike. Coupled with colorful paint, it was a magnificent sight and stood tall. The wall extended along the stone wall of the gatehouse. The wall was ten feet thick and three feet high. There were guards patrolling the courtyard walls with knives and arrows, making it look like a small castle. There was a huge building in the middle. The flowers and trees in the courtyard were arranged reasonably. There was a pond that was ten feet wide around the building. Usually, one had to take a small boat to get there. It was said that there were many traps inside, and it was heavily guarded. Danger lurked everywhere. Those who invade will enter but not leave.
Lei Wu and Lei Batian set up a sumptuous banquet to entertain Yu Quan and Bao Yuncheng who had rushed over from Dalian. The four of them drank as they talked about Lu Zhankui of Jinzhou. The tragic death of Yan Cheng sent chills down their spines.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Lei Wu said,
"I heard that the kid's martial arts are strange. His lightness skill has reached an unprecedented level, and he can fly at will. Lu Zhankui and Yan Cheng had no way to retaliate at all. They were struck at their acupoints by this brat, and were at his mercy. Lu Zhankui had been dismembered by that brat, and Yan Cheng had been smashed into a pulp with a single slap. Not even his corpse was left behind. How tragic!”
Eight Tigers Yu Quan said,"
"If it's really like what you said, then even if all eight of us were to join forces, we wouldn't be able to withstand a single blow. For now, he could only use his wits! From now on, you and I brothers should try not to go out. Let him come to us and make plans. In addition, he had to be prepared to escape!”
Lei Wu said,
"I heard that this kid was pestered by a princess of the Snowy Lotus Cult of the Changbai Mountains. Lu Zhankui caused a huge disaster by going to the martial arts competition for a spouse set up by the young lady in Jinzhou. He was discovered by Ren Cong, who was there to watch the show, and lost his life. The lady had taken a fancy to this Prince Charming with delicate skin and tender flesh. She blamed that brat for messing up her Joust For A Spouse game and pestering him relentlessly. If she could kidnap this girl, he would definitely not leave her alone. However, it wasn't fun to provoke those girls from the Snowy Lotus Cult!”
Yu Quan thought for a while and said,
"Looking at the big picture now, our enemy is that kid Ren Cong. As long as we can catch this kid, everything will be easy. Now that they had reached this critical juncture, their lives were more important. How could they care so much? As long as we don't hurt the girls, we can apologize to the Snowy Lotus Cult afterwards. That's better than losing our lives.”
Lei Wu said,
"Our men have already been sent out. As soon as there is news, we will immediately report it.”
Lei Wu, Lei Batian, Yu Quan, and Bao Yuncheng were discussing when a scout came in and reported,
"Manor Lord, Ren Cong and those women from the White Lotus Society are rushing to the city. Our brothers are monitoring them and will report their situation to us at any time!”
When the four of them heard this, they happily drank the wine in their glasses.
"Very good! Continue monitoring!"
Lei Wu said.
After Ren Cong and the girl finished their meal, they rushed all the way to Shen Yang. That was good. Ren Cong had a few more companions and felt much better. They talked and laughed along the way. From time to time, the girl would deliberately let go of her horse and squeeze Ren Cong. Every time she bumped into him, he would be gently slapped by her. Sometimes, Ren Cong really could not help but want to lift her mysterious veil and see the face of this sweet-talking girl who would giggle when touched. However, when he thought about the matter of removing Gai Yiling's veil, he immediately dispelled this curious thought. They fought and joked all the way to Shen Yang City.
The ancient city of Shen Yang had unique architecture. The tall and majestic city gate was like a towering stone city. On the city gate tower, there were soldiers wearing tortoiseshells, holding large swords and spears, and carrying swords. The archers stuck out half of their heads under cover, watching their targets for any possible enemy movements. From time to time, there would be generals riding on tall horses, surrounded by guards, walking and stopping on the walkway on the city wall, gesturing.
There were many buildings and pavilions in the city. Although they were all three to five-story buildings, most of them had the style of a temple pavilion. The exquisitely carved decorations were indeed spectacular and beautiful. The doors of the spacious courtyard houses were decorated in a grand and majestic manner, showing the style of being rich and powerful. The buildings, pavilions, rockeries and fish ponds in the courtyard all had their own styles, which made the whole city of Shen Yang show the combination of ancient, rich and new.
It was especially so during the spring and summer nights. People decorated the streets with lanterns and streamers, and the hotels were bustling with activity. It was as if they wanted to play more and wander around to compensate for the coldness of winter.
Ren Cong and his group arrived at a " Greeting Inn ". As soon as they arrived at the door, the boss warmly welcomed them. He ordered the waiter to bring the luggage of the guests, lead the horses to the stable, and instructed them to prepare the best horses. Then, he led the guests to the hall and invited them to sit on the leather sofa. He made tea and asked the guests what kind of room they wanted.
"Excuse me, boss, are there any independent buildings?”
Ren Cong asked.
"Yes, yes, yes!"
The boss replied enthusiastically.
Ren Cong booked a unique two-story building in the backyard. It was a small, independent two-story building, a small courtyard specially designed for distinguished guests. The small building was surrounded by twenty feet high walls, which were more than ten feet away from the tall backyard wall. There was a living room in the small building where they could eat and rest. The bedroom doors opened in the living room, and each bedroom was designed with a bathroom. It was indeed convenient and safe.
Ren Cong and the others all lived on the second floor, while his daughter lived downstairs.
Ren Cong stayed in the first and second rooms, while the third room was a suite for the mother and daughter. After everything was arranged, Ren Cong said to the woman,"
"Please return to your room to take a shower. After you're done, come to the dining room to eat. There's no need to wait.”
Ren Cong finished his shower and wore a snow-white silk shirt, white trousers, a palm-wide red belt, and a pair of light martial arts shoes. He went downstairs and arrived at the dining room elegantly with a " Dugu Jiandao " hanging beside him. As soon as he entered the door, he was stunned by the fairy in front of him. When the fairy saw the handsome Prince Charming enter, she couldn't help but stand up. The two of them stood there in a daze.
The fairy was tall and slender. She wore a white silk dress, revealing two inches of green trousers under the dress. She wore a pair of pink embroidered satin shoes. The shoes were indeed exquisite, and the patterns were embroidered vividly. Her long black hair draped over her vest. There was a three-finger-wide red ribbon tied into a beautiful bow on her head. A pair of big eyes that could talk was as watery as a clear pond in autumn. Her eyebrows were perfectly shaped, as if they were artificially drawn. Her dense eyelashes were raised, and her high nose bridge was erected on her smiling cherry lips. Her oval-shaped face was white and smooth, as if it would be damaged at the slightest touch. If Gai Yiling was a rose, then she must be a peony. If Gai Yiling was Lotus, then she must be Xuelian.
Ren Cong stared blankly at the fairy and slowly walked into the hall. He looked at the fairy and stuttered,"
"You are…"
The girl was stunned and came to her senses. She stood there and giggled,
"Yo yo yo! Aren't I the girl who was rejected a thousand miles away! You don't recognize me anymore? My name is Xie Xuelian, gegege!"
"Oh! So it's Miss Xuelian, please sit!”
Ren Congchi said to the girl in a daze.
A few servant girls had also brought the woman into the hall. The woman sat on a large round platform with the servant girls standing behind her. This formation was indeed shocking.
Ren Cong greeted everyone and sat down on the stage. The woman sat at the top while Ren Cong and Xie Xuelian sat on either side. At this moment, the woman said,
"Ladies, sit down and eat together!”
A few servant girls were sitting around the table, chattering away.
Ren Cong instructed the shop owner to prepare the best famous dish, a hundred-year-old daughter's red wine. The wine and dishes were placed on a large table.
A servant girl filled everyone's glasses. Ren Cong raised his glass and said politely,"
"First of all, I wish Madam good health and eternal youth and beauty. Cheers!”
His wife laughed out loud, and everyone clinked their glasses and downed their drinks.
"The second cup of wine, cheers to everyone's acquaintance!”
Everyone toasted again.
"This third cup of wine is to wish the beautiful Princess Xuelian, who is as beautiful as a flower and jade, to choose a suitable husband as soon as possible. Cheers!”
"No, I can't! It should be for Princess Xuelian to have found her Mr. Right. Cheers!”
Xie Xuelian corrected.
"Cheers!"
Xie Xuelian said loudly. With a bang, it touched Ren Cong's wine glass, and then he raised his glass and drank it in one gulp.
Madam said,
"Young Master Ren, my daughter has lifted her veil for you today so that you can rest assured. Is my daughter not beautiful enough and not worthy of you?”
Ren Cong said,"
"Senior, you're wrong about this junior. Young miss is as beautiful as a fairy. If I'm not engaged, that would be what I wish for. However, Gai Yiling and I have already decided to be together for life. I can't let people say that I'm a heartless man who has fallen in love with someone else. There are many beautiful women in the world. I can't fall in love with every one I see! How could there be an end to that! Please understand this junior's difficulties!”
Madam said,
"Young Master Ren, what you said is right. One must be sincere and not fickle. However, you are not a playboy. You only have an unmarried fiancée now. Even if you marry Xuelian, it will only be a second wife. Furthermore, it was confirmed under my supervision. There were elders present to confirm that it was ethical. You have to know that you already captured my daughter's * x that day. That's a forbidden area for women, even though you did it unintentionally. However, you have to think about it. How could a girl who had been captured by a man have the face to live in the human world? It's impossible for you not to take responsibility for your own actions. Young Master, think about it carefully!”
Ren Cong said,"
"I didn't say that I'm irresponsible. I have to explain this matter to Yiling after I'm done. I think Yiling is a reasonable person. She will settle this matter with me!”
"Alright! We'll wait for Young Master Ren and Miss Gai Yiling to discuss this matter! I believe Young Master will handle it well. Let's drink!”
Madam gave her daughter a look.
Everyone ate and drank happily until late at night before returning to their rooms to rest.
Madam slept in the third room while Xie Xuelian slept in the fourth room. The temperature difference between day and night in the north was very large. Although it was very hot during the day, it was very cold at night. Coupled with the tiring journey, they slept soundly.
The pitch-black night seemed mysterious and unpredictable. It was pitch black everywhere. In the dark night, there were all kinds of living beings hidden here, including mountains and rivers. Under the cover of the night, this was also a great opportunity for them to come out and harm the human world.
The night was very quiet, so quiet that one could almost hear their heartbeats. Around five o'clock, people were sleeping soundly. A black shadow appeared outside Xie Xuelian's bedroom window. In the blink of an eye, a small hole appeared on the paper on the window. A small bamboo tube slowly extended into the room. A white smoke surged into the room and quickly spread out. Then, a masked man silently opened the window and entered the room. After a while, he carried a large sack and shot out of the window, disappearing into the night before dawn.
The next morning, the hierarch wife got up and called out,"
"Xue 'er, Xue' er, wake up, the sky is already bright…!”
However, there was no response.
The Hierarch Madame pushed open the door and was shocked! There was still someone in the room! Xie Xuelian had disappeared! The window was wide open. Hearing the scream, Ren Cong quickly rushed over and saw the hierarch wife lying on the ground with a dazed expression.
The Hierarch Madame said to Ren Cong weakly,"
"Xue 'er…I can't…see you anymore!"
Ren Cong helped the hierarch wife up from the ground and looked up at the room. He saw a letter under the teacup on the small table and hurriedly opened it.
"Esteemed Hierarch Madame of the Snowy Lotus Cult, because our lives are threatened, we have no choice but to do this. As long as Ren Cong is willing to exchange for it, we guarantee that we will return our beloved daughter unscathed. Tomorrow night, Ren Cong must come to my courtyard to be tied up and immediately release your beloved daughter. Think about it, Ren Cong isn't a cowardly person who forgets righteousness. For his own sake, he doesn't care about your beloved daughter. Remember!”
The ten tigers of the northeast, Lei Wu, presented themselves.
"How despicable! It's okay, Madam. It's okay. Tonight, I will go and get Miss Xuelian back for you! Don't worry, Madam!"
Ren Cong comforted the hierarch wife.
"You must be talking nonsense! Wouldn't it be the same if he used you to exchange for it? One came back, and I lost another. My palms and hands were all flesh. Although you don't acknowledge it now, I already treat you as my son-in-law, half a son! How can I let you die? Besides, they want your life. Before you reach their hands, Xuelian shouldn't be in danger. Therefore, we need to come up with a rescue plan. We can't exchange hostages! This is the best plan!"
Hierarch Madame calmed down and said seriously.
"Besides, they wouldn't dare to offend our Snowy Lotus Cult. If they offend us, their days will be very difficult. Outside this pass, they would not have any space to survive. They knew the stakes!”
the hierarch wife added.
Ren Cong thought for a moment and said,"
"Madam, don't worry. I have my own ways. They can't kill me. I'm looking for an opportunity to interact with them directly, and now they've created this opportunity for me. I'll use this to destroy them. Just watch, madam!”
The Hierarch Madame asked,"
"Are you really confident?"
Ren Cong replied without thinking,"
"Of course!"
The Hierarch Madame asked Ren Cong,"
"Then how should we act tonight?”
Ren Cong replied,"
"Tonight, I will go to the Lei Family Manor with you. After we exchange for the Snow Lotus, you can return to the inn. Or you can wait for me on the street or at the entrance of the villa. I'll meet you after I'm done!”
The Hierarch Madame said,"
"Alright, since you've made up your mind, we'll act according to the situation!”
The sky had just darkened when the High Priestess of the Snowy Lotus Cult led Ren Cong, who was wearing a white shirt and long pants with a red belt around his waist, to the entrance of the Lei Clan Manor.
Lei Wu, Lei Batian, Yu Quan, and a dozen green-robed men were standing on the tall gatehouse with large sabers in their hands. They saw the Cult Master leading a handsome young man who looked like a weak scholar who was still wet behind his ears to the gate. They could hardly believe that this young man with delicate skin and tender flesh in front of them had such power that he could actually turn someone into meat paste with one palm.
"You are Ren Cong?"
Eight Tigers Yu Quan asked loudly.
"It's me! You are the Ten Tigers of Northeast China, and you are also considered to be a somewhat famous hero in the martial arts world. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by the martial arts world by using such a despicable method to kidnap a girl?”
Ren Cong scolded loudly.
"Young Master Ren, in order to save my life, there is no other way. Alliance Master Ren is a respected hero in the martial arts world. You are Alliance Master Ren's only precious son, so we don't want Alliance Master Ren to be the last one." Seven years ago, it wasn't the intention of the Ten Tigers of Manchuria to encircle and annihilate the Ambitious Mountain Villa. We were just taking money to help others eliminate the disaster. After that, we blamed ourselves. If Young Master Ren is willing to give up on finding trouble with us, we will immediately release Miss Xuelian. As the saying goes,'Every injustice has its perpetrator, and every debt has its obliterator'. You should be looking for the person who paid us to kill.”
Yu Quan argued loudly.
Ren Cong replied firmly,"
"I will definitely find the mastermind, but you have killed 700 people in Ambition Villa. That is not something that can be settled with just a few words. Only by killing these unjust people who only care about money and not their lives can the dead heroes be comforted. Cut the crap! Just tell me what kind of exchange you want!”
"Good! Great, then please come in!"
Yu Quan said loudly.
"We have to see him before we can enter!”
the hierarch wife said.
Yu Quan waved his hand, and a girl was hung from the beam in the courtyard. The girl shouted,
"Young Master Ren, don't worry about me. Don't fall for their tricks. They will take your life. Don't worry about me…!”
Yu Quan waved his hand and the girl disappeared.
"You guys have seen him. Come in! Haha!"
Yu Quan laughed sinisterly.
The gate under the city tower was already open. Ren Cong and the hierarch wife entered the gate and the gate closed. The two of them passed by the courtyard and came to the side of the pool. They saw a small boat placed beside the pool.
"Get on the boat and come over!"
Yu Quan shouted from the gatehouse.
Ren Cong and the hierarch wife got on the boat and rowed to the opposite building. After passing through the pool, the two of them went up to the corridor. The door here was also wide open. Ren Cong raised his hand, indicating for the sect master to stand at the door and not enter. He walked through the door into the hall.
"Alright! We will wait here. According to the conditions we agreed on beforehand, we have to tie you up before we can exchange with you. Do you agree? Young Master Ren!"
Yu Quan and the others had already arrived at the building. They could only hear his voice resounding in the building.
Ren Cong replied straightforwardly,"
"Do as you please!"
At this moment, two burly men came in from a side door. They each held a thick hemp rope as they walked towards Ren Cong and said,"I'm sorry, Young Master Ren!" Then, he tied Ren Cong up like a meat dumpling. After instructing Ren Cong to walk to the back door across the hall, he left in a flash.
"Where's my daughter? You can't go over without seeing my daughter!"
The hierarch wife shouted at Yu Quan from the door.
Yu Quan suddenly appeared in the right corner of the hall. He waved his hand and Xie Xuelian was pushed out from the back door. Her hands were tied behind her back.
"Let's begin! Young Master Ren, please walk to the middle of the hall first. Miss Xuelian will go over!”
Yu Quan said loudly to Ren Cong.
Ren Cong followed Yu Quan's request and walked to the center of the hall without hesitation. When he was about to reach the center of the hall, Ren Cong stopped and said,
"If Miss Xuelian doesn't go over, I won't leave. Quickly let Miss go!”
"Good! Please return to your mother's side, Miss Xuelian!”
Yu Quan pushed Xuelian and she flew toward the Hierarch Madame. The Hierarch Madame was quick and caught her with both hands. At this moment, the middle of the hall collapsed with a crash! Ren Cong, who was tied up like a meat dumpling, had fallen into an unfathomable trap.
Hierarch Madame and Xie Xuelian turned around and disappeared from Ren Cong's sight. Knowing that they had fallen into a trap, they pulled their daughter and rushed toward the pond. The mother-daughter duo leaped over the pond and flew out of the Lei Family Manor. They came to a teahouse across the street and sat down on a small table by the window facing the Lei Family Manor.
Xie Xuelian cried,
"Mother, in order to save me, Young Master Ren is in trouble. If Young Master Ren were to die, what meaning would there be for his daughter to live? Let me go in and fight them to the death. I will save Young Master Ren even if I have to die!”
Hierarch Madame comforted her daughter,"
"Young Master Ren told us to wait for him outside the gate. He will have a way to escape. I think Young Master Ren's Kung Fu is strange and he has unique skills. Since he asked us to wait for him, he must be confident that he can escape. Let's wait here and see.”
Xie Xuelian told her mother,
"Last night, after they drugged me with the incense, when I woke up, I was locked in a basement. The doors there were made of two-inch thick iron plates, and the windows were installed with iron pillars as thick as teacups, each two-inch wide. The surrounding walls were all made of large stones and ashes. It was unknown how thick they were. How could they have the chance to escape? Moreover, he was tied up into a meat dumpling with such a thick hemp rope. I think he's doomed…!”
"Wuuuu…!"
Xie Xuelian burst into tears.
"Child, don't cry! Let's wait and see. I believe Young Master Ren. Since he dared to do this, he must have his reasons. He's not a fool, child!”
the hierarch wife comforted.
"That's true, but that's the reality! Unless he's a god!"
Xie Xuelian cried even harder.
"Ah! He wasn't an immortal, but a god was possible. Do you still remember how he disappeared after Lu Zhankui and Zhan Cheng were exterminated in Jinzhou? He must have a way to escape. Daughter, just wait patiently!”
the hierarch wife said thoughtfully.
Hearing her mother's words, Xie Xuelian became much quieter.
After Ren Cong fell into the trap, there was a faint light below. He saw a tunnel below and walked along it. He came to a corner in front and saw a small stone house next to it. There were two men with long hair and long beards locked inside. They were wearing extremely thick handcuffs and ankle chains. They were sitting cross-legged on the ground. The stench inside was unbearable. It seemed that these two people had been locked up for countless years.
Ren Cong walked over and asked from outside the window,"
"Senior, may I ask why the two of you have been locked up here? How long have you been locked up?”
"Ah! We used to be from the Qingcheng Society of Shen Yang. This is Wang Weiyun, the chief of the branch. I'm the deputy chief, Wang Licheng. We are actually a branch of Ren Xiaotian, the leader of the Ambitious Villa in Jiangnan.
One day, Lei Wu sent someone over and invited us to the Lei Family Manor as guests. He said that he had something important to discuss with us. When we arrived at the manor, Lei Wu was sitting on a wooden chair at the back of the hall. When he saw the two of us enter, he warmly greeted us and had already prepared a banquet for us. At that time, we still had some dealings with Lei Wu and the others. Our relationship was not bad, so we were not on guard. Who would have thought that we would lose consciousness after drinking less than two glasses? We were locked up here and never met us. We don't know what happened outside or how long we were locked up.”
Wang Weiyun said hatefully.
"Ah! It's two seniors. You've been locked up here for more than seven years. Seven years ago, the Ten Tigers of Manchuria were bribed by a white-bearded old man in Jiangnan with a hefty sum of 100,000 taels of silver each. They led their subordinates to Jiangnan and massacred the "Ambition Villa". He killed all seven hundred people in the manor, and Alliance Master Ren and his wife were also murdered. Only his eight-year-old son, Ren Cong, escaped. I'm Ren Cong, who escaped back then. I'm here to take revenge on them. Jinzhou Lu Zhankui and Yan Cheng have been killed by me. When Yu Quan of the Eight Tigers of Dalian heard the news, he tricked me into coming here. Seniors, don't worry. I will find a way to save you!”
Ren Cong said to Wang Weiyun and Wang Licheng.
"Ah! It's Young Master!"
The moment Alliance Master Ren was killed, the two of them immediately fainted. After a while, they finally caught their breath. The two of them immediately knelt on the ground and gritted their teeth.
"Damn the Ten Tigers of Northeast, for the sake of money, they disregarded the morality of the martial world and dared to harm Alliance Master Ren. As long as we are alive, we will kill them. We must find the murderer who harmed the villa and harmed Alliance Master Ren. We must tear him into pieces and sacrifice Alliance Master Ren's soul in heaven. However, the young master was also trapped in the dungeon and was tied up like a meat dumpling. How could he escape?”
The two of them said hatefully and worriedly.
Ren Cong consoled,"
"Don't worry, I have my own way to escape.”
Ren Cong stretched his body upward, and his entire body immediately grew taller and thinner until it was as big as a teacup. The hemp rope fell to the ground with a "Hua La" sound. Then, he turned his finger into a sword at the iron lock on the iron door. With a bang, the iron lock was broken into pieces.
Wang Weiyun and Wang Licheng were dumbfounded by Ren Cong's feat. After a moment, the two of them revealed long-lost smiles on their faces. They finally saw hope for revenge.
Ren Cong opened the iron door, smashed the iron chains and handcuffs, and led the two of them to a place where there was light. At the end of the corridor, there was a stone house. The light came from the iron pillar on the window that was as thick as a teacup. There was a gap of about two inches between the iron pillars. The three of them were looking out when a loud bang sounded behind them, and dust immediately gathered. A huge iron plate fell down, blocking their way out. They were locked in the stone house. Suddenly, sharp arrows shot out from the stone walls on both sides like rain. Ren Cong's skin instantly released a white halo to protect him, and the arrows fell outside the halo. Wang Weiyun and Wang Licheng were blocked by Ren Cong on the iron plate and were spared. However, one of his shoulders and one of his legs were hit by an arrow. After a while, the storm of arrows finally stopped.
How could he get out? Of course, Ren Cong didn't care and could come out at will, but what about Wang Weiyun and Wang Licheng? He was afraid that he would hurt the two of them if he stepped on the stone wall.
Ren Cong looked out of the window and pondered.
"Why don't I try to grab a single iron pillar and push it outwards? Let's try the effect of gradually increasing the force from a small force!”
Ever since Ren Cong started his cultivation, he had always been able to crush his opponent with one strike. He had never tried to use the method of gradually increasing his strength, so he did not know how capable he was. Ren Cong grabbed a large iron pillar in the middle and circulated his qi to his upper limbs, gradually increasing the strength. Haha! The iron pillar bent. With a little more force, the iron pillar came down. He grabbed another iron pillar beside him and removed it with a loud clang. It did not take much effort.
Ren Cong thought,"
"So there are still many methods that I don't know how to use. After I eliminate the ten tigers, I will have to properly summarize the method of using the martial arts that Master taught me.”
Ren Cong was the first to jump out. It turned out that he was at the bottom of a stone slope a few dozen feet away from the courtyard wall. Not far away, there were two servants hiding there drinking. When they saw Ren Cong jump out, they immediately shouted," Ah!”It turned out that Ren Cong had treated them to two bamboo leaf darts.
Wang Weiyun and Wang Licheng also jumped out of the dungeon.
Ren Cong said to the two,"
"Seniors, please leave quickly…!”
As Ren Cong spoke, he pushed the two of them out of the courtyard wall. The two of them leaped over the courtyard wall and escaped.
Ren Cong jumped onto the stone slope and came to the side of the pool protecting the building. He floated into the air and a white shadow landed beside the pavilion on the left side of the building. He looked inside. "Haha!" The brothers Lei Wu and Lei Tianba, Yu Quan and Bao Yuncheng were currently feasting in the side hall.
"No matter how powerful this kid is, he'll still obediently wait for death in the dungeon! This kid suffered because he was just like his father, chivalrous! Hah! Hah! Haha!"
Lei Batian laughed with drunken eyes.
"I don't think we can tie him up. Perhaps that kid is currently fumbling around in the dungeon to find a way out! It was better to lure him into the iron house and burn him to death!”
Yu Quan suggested worriedly.
"If he had walked into the stone house, he would have been pierced by thousands of arrows. Don't worry!”
Lei Wu said confidently.
"You guys are in a good mood! You guys don't know that Ren Cong is very capable. You can't kill him. You're the ones waiting to die. Hah! Hah! Haha! How are you going to die? Tell me about it so that I can give you some reference!”
Ren Cong laughed sarcastically.
"Who is it? Who's talking over there…!"
Lei Batian shouted drunkenly.
Yu Quan, Lei Wu, and Bao Yuncheng stood up.
A white shadow flashed, and Ren Cong was already standing in front of them.
"Are you a human or a ghost? Do you have a demonic technique?”
As Yu Quan spoke, he waved his sword and slashed out a silver streak of light towards Ren Cong. Ren Cong flashed past and patted Lei Wu and Lei Batian's backs.
Yu Quan's attack failed, and he flew up into the air. His sword drew a fan-shaped arc of light. The white light was dazzling, and the sword qi was so cold that it seemed to want to devour the prey in front of it. Ren Cong cleverly blocked Lei Batian's sword horizontally. With a clang, Lei Tianba's sword broke into two.
"Ah! My goodness, what a powerful sword!”
Ren Cong admired Yu Quan's sword to the extreme. He teased,
"Old man, such a good sword is not worthy of being used by villains like you. Put it down and let me give it to the person who is worthy of this sword.”
Yu Quan shouted,
"Third Bro, what are you guys still standing there for? Hurry up and help!"
Seeing that the two of them were not moving, Yu Quan flew over and shook them. Only then did he know that his acupuncture points had been struck. He quickly tapped the backs of the two of them a few times, but there was no reaction. He clicked again, but there was still no movement! Yu Quan was so anxious that he slapped the backs of the two of them…
"It's useless, old man. The acupuncture points I pressed can't be opened. Let them wait here to die! Let me send you on your way first before turning back to greet them! Haha!"
Ren Cong stood there and let him perform. He said sarcastically.
Suddenly, a strong gust of palm wind surged over. Ren Cong raised his left palm and gently sent out a stream of air to collide with the opponent.
With a loud bang, it was as if there was a huge explosion in the sky. The mountains shook and the earth shook. Wind blew in all directions, and dust flew everywhere. Bao Yuncheng, the sneak attacker, flew out like a kite with a broken string.
"Bang!" An explosion sounded! He crashed into the wall, his bones shattered, his stomach ruptured, and his intestines flowed out. He went to see the big tiger.
Yu Quan saw that things were not looking good, so he stomped his foot and shot into the ground. He followed the tunnel and ran forward desperately. Ren Cong also flew forward and saw Yu Quan, who was running in front, use Finger Transformation Sword. With a bang, Yu Quan, who was more than a hundred feet away, fell to the ground. Ren Cong's strength was light, and he was far away, leaving his corpse intact.
Ren Cong picked up Yu Quan's sword and returned to the hall. He saw a woman dressed in luxurious and noble clothes and a girl as beautiful as flowers and jade shaking Lei Wu.
"Daddy, what's wrong with you? Why aren't you saying anything? Why aren't you moving! Daddy…!"
The girl shook Lei Wu and cried desperately.
"Her father! You have committed too many sins, this is karma. I usually advise you to leave a way out, but you just don't listen. Look, today is retribution, his father! How are we going to live in the future?”
The woman cried out with tears streaming down her face.
The mother and daughter, who were crying so hard, suddenly saw a young man in white standing in the middle of the hall with a sword in his hand. The mother and daughter knelt on the ground and begged Ren Cong,"
"This young master, we know that he has done many wicked things in the past. Please, for the sake of us orphans and widows, I beg Young Master to spare him. We will bring him back to the forest and live in seclusion. He will no longer harm the human world. Young Master, I beg you!"
Ren Cong spread out his hands and said helplessly to the mother and daughter,
"Madam, Miss, seven years ago, Lei Wu and Shi Hu went to Jiangnan's 'Ambitious Village'. They killed my parents and harmed more than seven hundred innocent lives in the villa. How can I forgive them? If you were me, would you forgive them?”
After saying that, he undid their mute acupuncture points and let their relatives say goodbye.
Lei Wu said,
"Madam, girl, don't cry. I've indeed done too much evil. If you were him, you wouldn't let me off either! There was no need to say anything else. They only begged Young Master Ren to let them go. They were innocent. They are a pair of kind-hearted mother and daughter. Please, Young Master Ren!”
Ren Cong softened his heart and said to the mother and daughter,"
"You and your daughter should immediately pack up and go elsewhere. The sooner the better!”
Lei Wu said to his daughter,"
"Daughter, come here. Father has more than ten gold bars on him. Take them back to your hometown and live a good life!”With that, tears fell like rain.
Ren Cong said to Lei Wu,
"If you knew this would happen, why did you do it in the first place?”
After the mother and daughter had packed up, Ren Cong asked them to wait outside. After watching the mother and daughter leave the door, Ren Cong returned to the hall. He raised his knife and chopped off Lei Wu and Lei Batian's heads before walking out to the side of the pool. Carrying the woman in one hand and the girl in the other, he flew out of the main gate and landed on the street. He put down the mother and daughter and said,
"Hurry up and leave. Don't look back!"
After the mother and daughter walked far away, Ren Cong returned to the front of the Lei Clan Manor's gate. He raised his hands and shouted,"
"Mountain-toppling sea!"
He pushed out his palms, and a powerful airflow rolled forward with an earth-shattering force. A violent explosion sounded. The earth shook, the mountains shook, the wind blew, sand and stones flew, rivers rolled, the sea roared, and the rumbling sounds lasted for a long time. Thick dust rose into the sky, blocking the stars and moonlight in the sky, causing the earth to be dark. The branches ten miles away rustled and leaves fell to the ground. The Lei Clan Manor was instantly flattened, turning into a scorched ruin, disappearing from the face of the earth.
The Hierarch Madame and Xie Xuelian, who had just seen Ren Cong land on the street, ran out of the teahouse, ready to welcome the victorious Ren Cong. He was so shocked by what had happened that he stood in the middle of the street without moving.
Ren Cong walked up to the mother and daughter and patted Xuelian's delicate face lightly. Only then did they come back to their senses.
"Ah! Oh my god! My good young master! You're simply an immortal, not a mortal!”
The mother and daughter said to Ren Cong in surprise.
"Thank you, Cult Master, thank you for your praise. Let's go back to the inn!”
Ren Cong said to the hierarch wife and Xie Xuelian.
Xie Xuelian excitedly grabbed Ren Cong's hand and ran.
"You wretched girl, you forgot your mother after having a lover. Don't want me anymore!”
The hierarch wife laughed and chased after him.
Xie Xuelian could not suppress the excitement in her heart. As she ran, she would hold Ren Cong's hand tightly from time to time, looking as if she wanted to swallow him whole. She did not expect Ren Cong to be so capable. Of course, he was excited. The young man in front of her was not only capable, but he was also a handsome man in the world, a prince charming that was hard to come by.
She was glad that she was so lucky to have met him. She definitely could not let him escape.
She thought that this was because she had done so many good deeds in her previous life, and it was a gift from heaven to repay her. However, at this moment, a trace of uneasiness flashed across her excited heart. This was because the person in front of her who had infatuated her had not given her anything to calm her down, not even a word. At this moment, she was just one-sided. She had to solve this problem immediately, without delay...
