Chapter 178: So Brave?

Now that he had Xiao Feng by his side, he still wouldn’t know how to use it!

So he had to go to the Beggars Sect to check in!

As for dealing with those scoundrels, Xiao Feng could handle it himself. The entire Beggars Sect put together wouldn’t be enough for Xiao Feng to fight; he didn’t need to make a move at all.

He just needed to explain the whole story and the rights and wrongs to Xiao Feng. He believed Xiao Feng wouldn’t want to use him to take revenge either.

“Fine, we’ll go to the Beggars Sect!” Yu Xian told him the truth, gave him the Cultivation Technique, and was going to seek justice for him. Naturally, Xiao Feng was the first in line.

“Oh, right, your sworn brother is currently in Dali. Do you want to see him? However, he just experienced the sorrow of losing his mother and should be in the Dali Imperial Palace right now.” Yu Xian remembered his agreement with Duan Yu to inform him once Xiao Feng arrived.

“What? His… Second Brother’s mother is gone? As his elder brother, I should go offer condolences. But he is in the Imperial Palace. Let’s just meet for a hearty drink some other time.” Xiao Feng thought about it. Seeing Duan Yu wasn’t convenient now, and he was entangled in trouble. They should each take care of themselves for now.

“Okay, hiss…” Yu Xian felt a pair of jade hands sliding across his waist, causing him to gasp sharply.

Speaking of Duan Yu losing his mother, Dao Baifeng’s hand, which had been covertly resting near his waist, suddenly gave him a pinch!

Women!!! They really are trouble!

Although Xiao Feng was travel-worn, he had no intention of resting before setting off. Thus, the three of them left Dali directly and headed for Luoyang.

Yu Xian felt speechless. His time was spent entirely on the road. Ancient transportation was truly exasperating!

The three spent quite a bit of time before finally arriving in Luoyang.

Outside the Beggars Sect headquarters in Luoyang, Xiao Feng hesitated, wanting to speak but stopping. Yu Xian could see that Xiao Feng wanted to handle the matter himself.

He hadn’t intended to get involved in the first place; he just wanted to visit the Beggars Sect headquarters to see if he could trigger a System check-in.

“You want to handle it yourself?” Yu Xian asked, feigning ignorance.

“Yes, Young Master.”

“Fine, I won’t participate. My wife and I will take a stroll. Come find us after you’re done.” Yu Xian expressed no objection.

Anyway, the System had already chimed.

【Ding! Congratulations to the Host for successfully checking in at the Beggars Sect. Rewards: Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, Dog Beating Staff Technique, and ten years of Internal Energy.】

A simple reward. The System didn’t indicate it was in a good mood, so there were no bonus rewards. Perhaps the Beggars Sect didn’t have any Martial Arts worth mentioning.

“Thank you for fulfilling my request, Young Master.” Qiao Feng bowed to Yu Xian.

Yu Xian waved his hand, and after absorbing the Cultivation Techniques, he took Dao Baifeng’s hand and turned to leave the Beggars Sect headquarters, leaving Xiao Feng to act freely.

Dao Baifeng, being quite elderly, felt extremely unnatural and embarrassed being led by Yu Xian like a little girl through the busy streets.

However, feeling the warmth coming from Yu Xian’s hand and his firm grip regardless of who was watching, a sense of happiness welled up in Dao Baifeng’s heart.

“Holding hands in public like this, isn’t it inappropriate?” Dao Baifeng tried to pull her hand away, but Yu Xian wouldn’t allow it.

“I’m holding my wife’s hand, what’s wrong with that? Who dares to say anything?” Yu Xian said carelessly.

Dao Baifeng:…

Dao Baifeng sighed. Yu Xian was truly the type of person who feared nothing, cared nothing for worldly opinions, and was unrestrained. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have taken a liking to an older woman like her and specifically brought her away from Dali via Duan Yu.

Although she looked much younger now, her age was a fact that couldn’t be changed. She truly didn’t understand Yu Xian!

The local customs of Luoyang were quite nice. Yu Xian brought Dao Baifeng along to look around. She bought very little, mainly because Dao Baifeng felt it was unnecessary.

That made sense; as a dignified Princess, what good things hadn’t she seen? However, Yu Xian didn’t mind. Things they could use, they didn’t buy, but food, they ate all the way. Dao Baifeng was initially reserved, but after Yu Xian kept stuffing things into her mouth, she ended up eating along the way too.

As Dao Baifeng gradually relaxed and followed Yu Xian around without reservation, Yu Xian ran into an acquaintance.

To run into an acquaintance in Luoyang, Yu Xian thought it was truly incredible! But thinking about it, it made sense; after all, her maternal grandfather was here!

That’s right, Yu Xian ran into Lin Pingzhi.

Yu Xian had saved the Fuwei Escort Agency and saved Lin Pingzhi’s family back then. They were all living well now. Furthermore, Lin Pingzhi’s maternal grandfather was Wang Yuanba, the Sect Leader of the Golden Blade Sect in Luoyang, so meeting him here was understandable.

As soon as Lin Pingzhi saw Yu Xian, he happily stepped forward and shouted directly: “Master!”

Yu Xian:…

He didn’t seem to have officially taken Lin Pingzhi as a disciple, although he had taught him a few moves.

“Lin Pingzhi, I don’t recall officially accepting you as a disciple, do I?” Yu Xian wasn’t angry, just asked in confusion.

“Although Master never formally accepted me as a disciple, I have always considered you my Master. Moreover, you saved our entire family and taught me Martial Arts. Whether you acknowledge it or not, you are my Master!” Lin Pingzhi said excitedly, then immediately knelt and kowtowed three times.

Yu Xian was speechless. In fact, Lin Pingzhi was quite good in many aspects, just lacking a bit in Aptitude. Accepting him wasn’t impossible, because he thought of someone: Yue Lingshan!

Ning Zhongze always felt concerned about Yue Lingshan. Now that Lin Pingzhi had no family vendetta, he wouldn’t practice the Bie Xie Swordplay, and naturally wouldn’t go to extremes to harm Yue Lingshan. Lin Pingzhi would indeed be a good match!

Ning Zhongze had met Lin Pingzhi before. If he accepted Lin Pingzhi as a disciple, Ning Zhongze would likely be even more willing to marry Yue Lingshan to him.

However, before Yu Xian could agree to take Lin Pingzhi as a disciple, the two middle-aged men accompanying Lin Pingzhi arrogantly pulled Lin Pingzhi up. The elder of the two said, “Pingzhi, who is this kid? Why should you bow to him and let him be your Master?”

“Uncle, this is the benefactor who saved our family that I told you about, Young Master Yu! He is also my Master!” Lin Pingzhi didn’t get up but explained to his uncles.

“Hmph, what benefactor, what Young Master Yu, just some pretty boy! You, the grandson of the Golden Blade Sect Leader, how can you casually bow to just anyone as a Master?” The other middle-aged man chimed in.

“Exactly!” The elder one agreed.

Yu Xian watched the two men with interest. They should be Lin Pingzhi’s two maternal uncles, Wang Yuanba’s two sons, Wang Bofen and Wang Zhongqiang!

He was curious if these two men had never heard his name? How could they be so brave? Or were they overconfident?

When Lin Pingzhi heard his uncles’ words, he immediately became nervous and grabbed his uncles, signaling them to stop talking.

Who was Yu Xian? He was the notorious bloodthirsty sword demon in the Jianghu!

Back then, he slaughtered the Qingcheng Sect until the ground was covered in blood outside their Fuwei Escort Agency, and later he annihilated the Songshan Sect. How could they afford to offend someone like that? Moreover, he still wanted to ask him to be his Master!
