"Don't listen to her spreading fallacies to deceive people!" Wang Chao shouted.
Murong Yunshu glanced at Wang Chao and then said to Fang Hongfei, "You can also let them take me to Liang Wang Residence. I also assure you that if you dare to touch even a bit of Chu Changge's hair, I will make sure that all the people in your Mingjian Mountain Villa will die without a burial place. And as for you, I will even take special care of you."
Fang Hongfei shivered with the icy tone of her voice, but he insisted calmly, "Do you think there's anyone else in this world who can do anything to me once Chu Changge dies?"
Murong Yunshu smiled, but she remained silent. She believed that even the most stupid people need a moment to understand.
Yes, although Fang Hongfei was not afraid on the surface, he had begun to weigh the weight in his heart. If Murong Yunshu joined hands with King Liang Jr, her strength would not be less than Chu Changge. The most important thing was that he still needed King Liang Jr's partnership to accomplish his great cause. In any case, Murong Yunshu couldn't join hands with King Liang Jr. Due to this, he had no other choice――he had to kill her!
Now was the best time for him to kill Murong Yunshu and Chu Changge. Once they died, no one would dare to oppose him, Fang Hongfei!
After Fang Hongfei came up with a final decision in his mind, both of his hands became as fierce as an eagle's claws and stabbed both Wang Chao and Zhang Yu's heart, followed by plucking them out so easily. The brutality of his hands made the onlookers speechless.
"Oh――" Wang Chao eyes glazed over, with a shocked expression forever fixed on his face. Zhang Yu, on the other hand, died with an expressionless face.
Murong Yunshu tilted her head to the side as she couldn't bear to see this bloody scene.
Murong Yunshu closed her eyes, with a few hints of grief shown on her face.
When Murong Yunshu suddenly felt that Chu Changge was holding her hand tightly for a few minutes, she immediately opened her eyes, with a question on them: Is there any other way?
Chu Changge smiled bitterly and slowly shook his head. He just hoped that she would not brood over the death of Wang Chao and Zhang Yu. Even if she did not instigate it, with Fang Hongfei's character, it was only a matter of time before he removed the two of them.
Fang Hongfei had a panoramic view of the couple's small movements and said with a savage sneer on his face, "I tell you, even if the gods come down to earth today, they won't be able to save you!"
Suddenly, an extremely familiar voice came from the jungle next to the road, "The gods can't save them, but this scholar can!"
Both Murong Yunshu and Chu Changge startled at the same time.
Wasn't this the sound of the impostor she met at the Lantern Festival?
Wasn't this the sound of the one he met on his way down the mountain?
"Who are you?" Fang Hongfei roared at the source of the voice.
"This scholar is named Zheng Qien, a native of Xiazhou, Yunan. I was roaming over the mountains and having fun in the river when I met such injustice by chance, thus decided to draw the sword and come to aid." The voice hardly finished speaking as a white shadow landed ahead of them.
Sure enough, it was him! Murong Yunshu looked sideways at Chu Changge. How come you didn't find out this person was a master that day?
Chu Changge shrugged his shoulders. When a master lacked money, he wouldn't usually cheat and rob the rich directly to help the 'poor'. So how would he know that the impostor was a master in hiding?
Fang Hongfei asked, "Which sects are you from, and who are your masters?"
"No sect, no masters, self-taught." Zheng Qien answered in one breath.
Upon hearing that the person was just a nobody, Fang Hongfei immediately threw back his head and laughed, then said, "There are really more and more people who don't properly measure themselves these days."
Zheng Qien laughed, "This scholar agrees with that statement."
"Humph! I advise you to mind your own business, not other people’s business," Fang Hongfei coldly warned.
"This scholar would not have minded if it wasn’t this scholar business. This scholar minds himself over this matter because it is precisely this scholar’s matter. If this scholar can't handle this......"
"Shut up!" Fang Hongfei spat out, interrupting him impatiently. He continued, "Hurry up and go for your exam in the capital! Don't pretend to be civilised if you’re not even a scholar! Who do you want to disgust by saying ‘this scholar’?"
"You," Zheng Zian laughed and then said to Murong Yunshu and Chu Changge. "And both of you."
“……”
“……”
Murong Yunshu was tempted to say, even if you didn't stress it out, we’re already disgusted with you. But in the end, she said nothing. Finding a way to deal with Fang Hongfei was the top priority.
"This scholar will take these two." Zheng Qien stated nonchalantly.
Fang Hongfei's expression was livid. "That depends on whether you have the ability to do so!" As he spoke, he quickly struck out his palm. Unexpectedly, Zheng Qien, who stood in front of him a second ago, suddenly disappeared out of thin air.
"This scholar is over here." Zheng Qien's voice rang out with a smile.
Fang Hongfei turned around and struck out his other palm, only to fall short again.
"Here, here."
Fang Hongfei looked up at the sound of his voice and was just about to strike out his palm when Zheng Qien disappeared from his sight once again. [+]
"On your right."
Fang Hongfei turned right.
"On your left."
Fang Hongfei turned left.
"Above you."
Fang Hongfei looked up, caught his silhouette and was overjoyed when he suddenly saw a growing fist coming towards his face. Then he blacked out and collapsed.
Zheng Qien jumped to the ground, clapped his hands to get rid of the dust, then reached out towards Murong Yunshu in a 'bring it out' gesture as he said, "Show's over, pay up."
Murong Yunshu was stunned for a moment, then said, "I don't have any money on me. How much do you want, I......"
"Oh, dear! You rich people are really. How can you go out without money? If you don't have money, you will be short-lived! " Zheng Qien said bitterly, with a serious look of a master teaching his students.
"I will bring them next time......" Murong Yunshu immediately stopped mid-sentence. She stiffened awkwardly for a few seconds before changing the subject, "Thank you for saving our life, Sir."
"Yes, this scholar did save you, but this scholar unexpectedly didn't want to save you even the slightest bit. Do you know why?"
Murong Yunshu and Chu Changge looked at each other. If he didn't want to save them, why did he do it? It wasn’t like they 'begged' him to.
"Because the last time this scholar was short of money, you didn't give it to me." Zheng Qien had a look of righteous indignation on his face.
"Er..." At that time, I thought you were an impostor. Of course, this sentence Murong Yunshu only thought about it in her heart, but her mouth said, "I will give it to you next time."
"What next time! You’re cursing this scholar's money to be robbed again!"
"......the old man lost his mare, but it all turned out for the best ()." Murong Yunshu pointed out, trying to justify herself.
Chu Changge held his forehead. She first cursed others to lose their silver, then comforted them with those kinds of talk......
Zheng Qien said, "Since you did not help this scholar last time, this scholar is not going to help you this time either."
Murong Yunshu was slightly surprised. Hadn't he already knocked Fang Hongfei unconscious?
Chu Changge listened carefully to the movements around him. After a while, he said, "That’s fine too. I happen to need an absolutely safe place to heal."
Murong Yunshu looked at him in confusion. What’s fine too?
"The Twelve Heavenly Fiends are here." Chu Changge said indifferently.
Before the words were entirely out of his mouth, the Twelve Heavenly Fiends appeared.
"I'll leave them to you guys." With these words, Zheng Qien walked forward in big strides. His steps were no different from those of an average person. However, his three steps took him ten metres away, and another five steps took him a hundred metres away. At the end of the road, he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Yisha said, "Leader Chu, please――"
Chu Changge responded, "If what your Holy Maiden wants is not this certain Chu's corpse, you better find a soft sedan chair."
*
No one knows what happened in the fir forest. Inexplicably, the weather in the jianghu changed, and the fir forest became famous.
Rumour spread in the jianghu that Chu Changge, the Sect Leader of the Mojiao Sect, died at the hands of Fang Hongfei, the Great Leader of the Martial Arts, and Murong Yunshu, the young mistress of the Murong Mansion in Jinling, committed suicide because of love.
"They're not dead yet!" Fang Hongfei told King Liang Jr.
King Liang Jr asked, "Then, where are they now?"
"I don't know. They were rescued by a strange scholar named Zheng Qien." Fang Hongfei added, "That man's martial arts are unfathomable and much higher than mine."
King Liang Jr pondered for a long time and instructed, "Go and find them. Whether it is Murong Yunshu or Chu Changge, or that scholar called Zheng Qien, find them all for this Wang."
"Yes." Although Fang Hongfei quickly agreed, he did not have any confidence in his heart. The jianghu was enormous, not tiny. Both evil and good people were all searching for Chu Changge's whereabouts, but there was still no news of him at all. So where was he going to find them?
*
Three months later, at the main assembly hall of Mojiao Sect.
"Still can’t find his whereabouts?" Fairy Yaoyue asked with a heavy tone. Her expression was so gloomy and frightening that there was no trace of her usual frivolity. [+]
The Four Great Guardians shook their heads heavily, the sign of their failures.
"There's no news regarding Miss from the Murong Mansion yet either," Lu-er reported as she stood beside Fairy Yaoyue. That day in the fir forest, after the four men from South to West came to rescue her, they hoped to return to Feiyang Villa to meet up with Guye and Miss. Still, unexpectedly before the horses could turn around, a group of men in black suddenly rushed out and trapped them. When they managed to escape the heavy siege, it was already too late. They could not find Guye and Miss, but only saw the bodies of Wang Chao and Zhang Yu in the fir forest.
Fairy Yaoue sat helplessly back on the leader's seat. Her face looked more than ten years older than it was three months ago. Chu Changge's whereabouts were still unknown, and even though she had the skill to preserve her youthful appearance, she could not resist the marks left by her ageing years on her face.
At this moment, Zhao Da, who had been standing silently by the side, suddenly swore, "I will find them!" After saying this, he gripped the sword in his hand and turned to leave.
Chu Changge, I, Zhao Da, have yet to work like an ox or a horse for you, so you must live!
*
Meanwhile, inside a dungeon in Miaojiang, the heavenly temple of the Five Poisons Sect.
"Do you still refuse to marry Heavenly Maiden?" The Holy Maiden didn't know how many times she had asked the stone-cold man in front of her; knowing that the chances of getting a satisfactory answer were slim, she still insisted on asking every other day.
In the past, Chu Changge would have raised his head to give her a hard look. But now, he didn't even bother to do so as he coldly asked, "Have all the men of the Five Poisons Sect died out?"
The Holy Maiden heard so much of his mean words that they didn't even raise her temper anymore. "Is it true that you will be willing to marry Heavenly Maiden if all the men of the Five Poisons Sect die out?"
But Chu Changge said instead, "You better not speak to Yunshu."
"Yunshu, Yunshu! All you talk about is Yunshu! I told you long ago that I have killed Murong Yunshu!" The Holy Maiden said unhappily.
However, it was as if Chu Changge did not hear her words, the corners of his mouth slightly hooked, with his face overflowing with a few tender feelings, "Yunshu will be truly annoyed if she has to talk to stupid people, so you should not bother her."
The Holy Maiden frowned while swearing with another round of cursing words. Were all the people in the Central Plains used to talking like this? And that woman, who was called Murong Yunshu. It would be like taking nine curves and eighteen bends when she spoke with Murong Yunshu. Talking to her was like being talked to by a holy book.

Sheesh, Fang Hongfei is much eviler and crazier than Chu Changge.
