Chapter 5: The Defeated Golden Wheel

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuesheng immediately recognized it as the good deed of King Jinlun. This great monk possesses considerable skill, yet his character is lacking. A slight itch arose in his heart, and he greatly desired to teach this King Jinlun a lesson

Before they even approached, the few horses had already begun to neigh. Darba sprang up and, upon seeing Xiao Yuesheng and the others, shouted a few words in a chattering manner, displaying a look of vigilance.

Guo Jing sighed and said, "Alas, let your Aunt Guo speak."

Xiao Yue looked at him with a smile, a hint of compassion flashing in her eyes. With a sigh, she said, "Brother Yang, our last parting was so hurried, there were many things I did not have the chance to say to you"

So do you still want to become husband and wife with your aunt

Sun Ziming said "yes," bowed slightly, stepped back, turned around, and left to find a seat for dinner

Wanyan Pingyu's face flushed with two shades of peach blossom. She lowered her head in thought and softly replied with a "mm" in agreement. However, her heart was far from calm. If she did not go with him, she would have to venture into the martial world alone. Having experienced the days of being hunted by Li Mochou, her courage had diminished significantly. Without the support of hatred, she reverted to that delicate woman. Perhaps she should go with him; two people, a solitary man and woman, were rather inappropriate according to propriety. Yet, she was after all a child of the frontier, and deep down, she yearned to be with this man. Thus, she mustered her courage and agreed, her soft "mm" seeming to exhaust all her strength, leaving her entire body feeling weak.

Yang Guo whispered to Guo Jing and followed him out

Huang Rong nodded busily, her astonishment at Xiao Yuesheng's performance was beyond words; it was truly hard to imagine that this young man, barely in his twenties, possessed such remarkable skills.

Subsequently, the acupoints of Wan Yanping were released, and her delicate, flower-like face displayed a charming expression as she looked gratefully at Xiao Yuesheng. Xiao Yuesheng smiled at her and said, "Miss Wan Yan, I apologize for causing you distress."

Although they are children of the martial arts world, there are indeed differences between men and women. He would not rashly step forward to unblock the acupoint without first seeking Huang Rong's consent

Yang Guo quickly pushed open the door and entered the room, his face filled with anxiety, saying: "Brother Xiao, my aunt is missing!"

Using telepathy, he said in Yang Guo's mind: "Brother Yang, come with me outside the hall, let us have a chat"

Yang Guo glanced at Guo Jing and then at Xiao Yuesheng, saying: "Aunt Guo, I have not thought of any solutions, but Brother Xiao possesses exceptional martial arts skills and will surely surpass King Jinlun, so there is no need to worry."

At this moment, Li Zhi Chang had not yet revealed his extraordinary qualities, as his presence was completely overshadowed by Yin Zhi Ping. Zhao Zhi Jing, with his long flowing beard, exuded a considerable air of dignity. Xiao Yue Sheng sat quietly at the table, displaying a faint indifference, possessing a somewhat aloof demeanor that kept others at a distance. The crowd, seeing his stern bearing, did not dare to approach easily. He sat there alone, emanating an indescribable sense of desolation

Guo Jing possessed formidable internal energy. Although he was not familiar with the techniques for acupoint manipulation, he still found a way to place his palms against Guo Fu's back, channeling his robust internal energy in an attempt to forcibly unblock her acupoints

He glanced at Yang Guo and said with a smile: "When you choose which path to take, it may seem like freedom and intention, but in reality, there is inevitability, influenced by your preferences, personality, and other factors. If you like water, you will inevitably head east; if you prefer the desert, you will inevitably go west, and so on. Most of our choices are not about which path we select, but rather about which path we are pushed towards. Can you still say that fate is not predetermined?"

Guo Jing finally came to his senses and hurriedly said: "Xiao Shao Xia, why are you in such a rush? You saved Fu Er, and I have yet to properly thank you."

Yang Guo opened his mouth, then closed it again, saying nothing

Huang Rong also sighed, thinking that her father and husband were already unmatched in the world. However, it now seemed that there were indeed extraordinary individuals in the world, and she had previously been like a frog at the bottom of a well. This thought was soon dispersed by the joy of her daughter's return, and the group moved forward in a close-knit manner.

Yang Guo felt uneasy due to his demeanor and cautiously asked, "Does the elder brother wish to speak now?"

Guo Jing gently patted Huang Rong's hand, signaling her not to be anxious. His calm demeanor greatly impressed Xiao Yue. Even in the situation where his own daughter was captured, he remained composed, a level of self-cultivation that is indeed rare

Cheng Ying and Lu Wushuang had already formed a conclusion in their hearts after witnessing Xiao Yuesheng's unpredictable martial arts. Naturally, the Lu couple and the Guo Jing couple were extremely astonished

Xiao Yuesheng did not look at her, but turned to glance at Wanyan Ping and said with a smile: "Miss Wanyan, you should come with me. In the next few days, it is possible that Brother Yang and the others will arrive"

Yang Guo's gratitude towards Xiao Yuesheng deepened even further; Brother Xiao not only understood him but also cared for him so much, which was unparalleled to that of a biological brother

Xiao Yue said solemnly: "You wish to marry Miss Long, do you not?"

Five individuals arrived about one mile west of Lu Family Village. Xiao Yuesheng said, "Hero Guo, please hold on for a moment. I have some minor skills in searching; let me demonstrate them before we proceed."

Xiao Yuesheng humbly expressed that he could not decline the request, and then he sent Yang Guo along with Cheng Ying and Lu Wushuang to search for Xiao Longnv. Yang Guo knew that with Brother Xiao's assistance, the matter would surely be resolved. Moreover, he was anxious and restless, feeling as if every minute was like sitting on pins and needles. Upon hearing this, he immediately agreed, and Cheng Ying and Lu Wushuang had no objections either. Thus, they took their leave and set off.

Xiao Yue let out a light laugh and said: "I knew you would say that. You are correct; fate is not predetermined. Fate is like the various paths that spread across the world. Every moment, we are walking on these paths, making choices. Each choice leads us down a different road."

The Wu brothers immediately drew their swords, gripping them tightly. Huang Rong also felt a surge of tension in her heart, as the fact that the King of the Golden Wheel had captured her daughter was merely a conjecture.

The King of the Golden Wheel's complexion was slightly flushed as he said, "Hero Guo, as long as you hand over the antidote, your daughter will naturally return to your side; otherwise, I will have no choice but to offend you!"

What should we do then? he asked

Guo Fu gazed at him with her bright, sparkling eyes, not blinking at all, filled with curiosity about this ordinary man who had saved her. She thought to herself, if only he could be as handsome as Da Wu and Xiao Wu, then—upon thinking this, she felt a rush of shame and scolded herself. Da Wu and Xiao Wu had deep feelings for her, and it was too ungrateful of her to think this way. Then she thought, sigh, Da Wu is steady, Xiao Wu is clever, both of them like her, yet she truly cannot distinguish whom she likes more, it is really distressing. As she pondered this, her heart filled with shame again, scolding herself once more for her thoughts about Da Wu and Xiao Wu, who both cared for her deeply. Then she thought again, sigh, Da Wu is steady, Xiao Wu is clever, both of them like her, yet she truly cannot distinguish whom she likes more, it is really distressing. Her beautiful face flushed red and pale, reflecting her fluctuating emotions.

Xiao Yuesheng gently helped her up and lightly patted her weakened shoulder. He then realized that this action was somewhat frivolous; it had become a habit for him to pat people's shoulders. At that moment, he felt a bit intoxicated, thus losing his sense of propriety. He quickly withdrew his hand and smiled apologetically at Wanyan Ping. Two blushes rose on Wanyan Ping's delicate face, and she shyly lowered her head

Yang Guo felt a surge of emotion in his heart; Guo Jing held great significance in his mind, second only to Xiao Yuesheng. Being comparable to Guo Jing was something he had longed for.

Guo Jing, by nature simple-minded, gradually became more astute as his martial arts skills deepened. Being close to the wise Huang Rong, he could not help but become more intelligent. Upon hearing that Xiao Yuesheng possessed extraordinary skills, he quickly said: "There is no need to trouble Young Hero Xiao."

Guo Jing's simple face was filled with confusion, not understanding why he was being stopped

"Yes, I don't care about any moral codes or social norms; they are all nonsense!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Guo looked towards Xiao Yuesheng. In his mind, this Brother Xiao was capable of anything.

Xiao Yue Sheng smiled and said, "You should eat some food first; we might have to leave soon."

The western region is occupied by the Mongols. At this time, half of the territory of the Southern Song Dynasty has already fallen into Mongol hands. The country is in decline, and its demise is not far off

Without uttering a single word, he waved his hand urgently, leaped onto the horse's back, and galloped away

Yang Guo arrived shortly thereafter, did not take a seat, and asked: "Brother Xiao, do you have any teachings for Yang Guo?"

Yang Guo entered the hall and asked, "Uncle Guo, what has happened?"

Huang Rong also urged him to stay, saying: "Young Hero Xiao, perhaps Guo'er has already returned. Why not stay at the manor for a few more days? I would like to seek your guidance further."

In an instant, Xiao Yue Sheng had surprisingly brought the two women back from the hands of the Mongolian warriors, leaving everyone astonished and speechless; such lightness of foot was truly extraordinary and astonishing.

Yang Guo pondered for a moment, feeling confused, and asked, "Elder brother, I do not quite understand. Why did you say these things today?"

Yang Guo stood behind him, lowered his head in thought for a moment, and said: "Elder brother, I do not believe that the paths are predetermined; they are forged by human effort, and there is no such thing as a destined fate"

Having said that, he gently supported Wanyan Ping's waist and vanished from the spot

Guo Jing exclaimed: "King of the Golden Wheel, it is truly disgraceful for someone of your stature as a master to engage in such despicable acts, which fills me with great shame!"

However, Xiao Yue Sheng forcefully slapped the carved pillar, his tone becoming more serious as he said, "Fate is not entirely inscrutable."

"Oh? The Finger Flicking Divine Skill?" Huang Rong exclaimed in surprise, and then asked in astonishment, "Did you bring down that golden wheel?"

Guo Jing's martial arts skills were already subtly at the pinnacle of the world, closely rivaling the four great masters. The King of the Golden Wheel was the national master of Mongolia, possessing extraordinary martial arts that were on par with Guo Jing. Upon hearing that Xiao Yuesheng could actually surpass him, it naturally followed that he could also surpass Guo Jing. His youth was truly hard to believe

Xiao Yue nodded slightly, stood up, glanced at him, turned around with his hands behind his back, and gazed up at the bright moon that had risen halfway into the sky, saying: "Brother Yang should be able to see how much skill I possess." Yang Guo hurriedly nodded; to be able to summon the might of heaven and earth, allowing one to die and come back to life, is certainly not something that can be fully described by mere skill.

Huang Rong shook her head and smiled, saying: "I did not expect that Young Hero Xiao's martial arts are so profound. I can only express my admiration. With Young Hero Xiao's assistance, the Golden Wheel Dharma King will naturally be no challenge. I thank you very much."

Xiao Yue Sheng paused her laughter and said: "If that is the case, you should know that the road ahead will be fraught with difficulties and challenges. You must remember to strive for self-improvement, and there will surely be a day of fulfillment. I have established a residence by the South Lake in Jiaxing, named Guanlan Mountain Villa. If you wish to find me, you may go there."

Xiao Yue Sheng let out a light laugh, suddenly disappearing from the spot, only to reappear moments later. If it were not for the two women standing beside him, one would surely think they were seeing things.

Wanyan Ping felt a sense of relief. Ever since she met Xiao Yuesheng, who rescued her from Li Mochou, she had been deeply impressed by this seemingly ordinary-looking yet imposing man. He was like a towering mountain, unyielding in the face of any difficulty. With him around, she felt no need to worry.

The path of one li was quickly traversed, and before the three appeared a grove of trees. Several horses were tethered in front of the forest, leisurely grazing on the lush grass beneath the trees. It was now autumn, and everything was withering; yet here, there was still grass, which was indeed rare.

Huang Rong's complexion had turned a few shades paler, her brows tightly knitted, filled with worry.

On the morning of the second day, Xiao Yue Sheng sat alone on the couch practicing his breathing. This had become a habit for him. At his level of attainment, it did not matter whether he practiced or not, but he enjoyed the pleasant feeling that came with the practice; it was simply for fun.

Xiao Yue Sheng merely smiled without speaking

Huang Rong, filled with maternal love, was the first to react, joyfully calling out, "Fu'er!" She rushed forward and embraced Guo Fu. However, she soon realized that her daughter's acupoints had not been released. In a hurry, she reached out to pat her, but to her surprise, the acupoints remained unrelieved. She quickly pulled Guo Jing, signaling him to help their daughter release her acupoints.

Xiao Yuesheng stood beside Guo Jing and then raised his voice, saying: "King of the Golden Wheel, do you really think there is no one in our Central Plains who can contend with you?"

This finger technique is truly a form of silent and invisible lethal skill, capable of killing without a trace. It is precisely because it incites too much fear that he deliberately makes it emit a sharp whistle when he strikes. Although it remains fierce, it is still possible to guard against and evade it

Yang Guo hurriedly said: "Uncle Guo, Aunt Guo, since Brother Xiao has said it is the King of the Golden Wheel, it must be the King of the Golden Wheel. With my brother here, the King of the Golden Wheel is sure to have bad luck"

Upon entering the hall, the Lu couple sat with Guo Jing and Huang Rong, their brows tightly furrowed. The Wu brothers, Cheng Ying, and Lu Wushuang were also present. Observing the heavy atmosphere, it was evident that a serious matter had occurred

Yang Guo said: "Of course, my aunt has deep feelings for me, and I cannot be without her."

The couple Guo Jing was startled by the piercing gaze that shot out when he opened his eyes, the divine light brilliant and directly piercing the heart. Upon hearing his words, they were overjoyed, and Huang Rong exclaimed sweetly, "That's wonderful, Brother Jing." She gently trembled as she held Guo Jing's hand.

Xiao Yue placed her palm gently on Guo Fu's Baihui acupoint, and the flow of energy through her body's meridians immediately flashed in his mind. A warm and gentle vital energy surged in, unblocking the previously constricted acupoint, allowing the entire network of meridians to flow freely without any obstruction.

Having said that, he raised his right hand slightly, extended his index finger, and flicked it lightly towards the entrance of the hall. A gust of wind from his finger whistled out, and with a loud "clang," the large brass lock on the hall door flew up and fell outside the hall

Guo Jing supported Huang Rong. Although Huang Rong was pregnant, her belly had not yet noticeably grown, and she appeared no different from usual. However, Guo Jing, being a loving husband and caring father, was naturally very cautious, fearing any mishap. Huang Rong was also pleased to enjoy her husband's affection, which made Xiao Yue Sheng feel quite uncomfortable. He thought to himself that he should find a beautiful woman. Just look at Huang Rong's charming and delicate appearance; Guo Jing must be utterly enchanted by her, like a beautiful flower in a beautiful setting, surpassing even the immortals.

Xiao Yue Sheng turned around and asked, "Do you know that your identities do not permit you to become husband and wife?"

Although Yang Guo had lived in the ancient tomb since childhood, he was not completely ignorant. His voice lowered as he nodded slightly

Xiao Yuesheng glanced at Huang Rong and said, "Madam Guo, I would like to give it a try"

The King of the Golden Wheel's eyes flashed with a glimmer as he looked towards Xiao Yuansheng. Observing his posture, he noted that it did not resemble that of someone who had practiced martial arts, and thus he no longer took it to heart. With a smile on his face, he said: "In the Central Plains martial arts world, using numbers to overpower the few does not count as true heroism"

At this moment, Huang Rong was already pregnant, her complexion pale and her eyes reddened. She informed that both Guo Fu and Wan Yan Ping were missing. The housekeeper said they had left on horseback early and had not returned for a long time. Just now, the little red horse returned, whinnying sadly. The little red horse was quite perceptive, indicating that something must have happened.

At this moment, seeing that Guo Jing and his wife were unable to unravel his unique acupoint sealing technique, he felt a slight sense of comfort and said with a smile: "Guo Daxia, this is a unique technique of mine, so you need not waste your efforts."

Guo Jing opened his mouth to speak, but he had already lost the opportunity to continue persuading. He felt a deep sense of regret in his heart; he had intended to engage in a thorough discussion, but unexpectedly, the person left without warning. All he could do was exclaim loudly about the 'extraordinary individuals'.

The two conversed for quite a while, reminiscing about childhood anecdotes. Xiao Yuesheng felt that the gathering had already concluded, and he then brought Yang Guo back to the main hall. The banquet had dispersed, and apart from a few distinguished guests, everyone had left the Lu family estate. Xiao Yuesheng and the others were also retained, while Yang Guo was called over to Guo Jing's side, where the two were to share a bed. Xiao Yuesheng harbored quiet concerns, knowing that with Huang Rong's intelligence, she would surely discern the relationship between Yang Guo and Xiao Longnv, leading to an increasingly complicated situation.

Xiao Yuesheng harbored quiet concerns, knowing that with Huang Rong's intelligence, she would surely discern the relationship between Yang Guo and Xiao Longnv, leading to an increasingly complicated situation

His eyes were slightly red as he said, "Brother Xiao, why are you so good to me? What merit or capability do I, Yang Guo, possess! To receive such kindness, I truly feel ashamed"

Guo Jing grew up in Mongolia and spoke Mongolian as fluently as Chinese. He whispered, "Be careful, the Golden Wheel Dharma King is about to come out"

At this moment, the sky has darkened, and the evening breeze is slightly cool, blowing from the southwest, causing the willow trees by the pavilion to sway gracefully, filling his heart with tranquility

Sun Ziming hurriedly said: "Not hard, not hard"

Xiao Yuesheng originally planned for only Guo Jing and himself to go, but Huang Rong, being a loving mother, insisted on accompanying them. Naturally, the Wu brothers wanted to follow as well, as their hearts were all tied to Miss Guo. Upon hearing that she had been captured, they were restless and anxious. Huang Rong was already pregnant, making it difficult for her to ride, so the five of them had no choice but to walk and use their lightness skills to search the village.

The Wu brothers also shouted "Sister Fu," wishing they could rush out immediately to rescue their beloved, but after weighing their own martial skills, they still dared not move.

Xiao Yuesheng, seeing the skeptical gazes of the crowd, smiled and said: "Although my cultivation is still shallow, I can still handle the Golden Wheel Dharma King."

Beside the horse lay another person, who was none other than Dalba, the second disciple of the Golden Wheel Dharma King. At that moment, he was lying on the ground, watching the horse sneeze while grazing, and he smiled broadly, clearly showing his affection for the animal. Xiao Yuesheng couldn't help but feel a strong sense of goodwill towards him; those who love animals often possess a kind-hearted nature.

Although he pretended to be indifferent, every movement in the hall could not escape his perception. Suddenly, a person approached him, and with a focused gaze, he immediately recognized it was Sun Ziming

Sun Ziming has just mastered the Nine Yin Divine Skill, still in the phase of displaying his brilliance. As his cultivation deepens, this brilliance will gradually be concealed until it becomes entirely internalized. The Nine Yin Divine Skill belongs to the internal martial arts of the Daoist school, emphasizing the inward restraint of spirit and energy, with its ultimate goal being a return to simplicity and authenticity. Although Sun Ziming has already mastered it, he is still some distance away from reaching the realm of great accomplishment. Everyone can sense the surging energy within him, indicating his profound internal strength, making him a formidable expert. Hao Datong, seeing his deep respect for Xiao Yuesheng, was astonished, as if a servant were meeting his master. This young man before him was difficult to fathom; he seemed as if he might not possess martial skills, yet his demeanor suggested an exceptionally high level of martial prowess, making it truly hard to come to a conclusion. Furthermore, observing that one of his servants is such a skilled expert adds to the mystery, prompting him to refrain from further inquiry.

Due to his relationship with Yang Guo, Xiao Yuesheng was arranged to sit in the VIP section, alongside members of the Quanzhen Sect, including Hao Datong, Sun Buer, Yin Zhiping, Zhao Zhijing, and Li Zhichang, all of whom were elites of the Quanzhen Sect. Among them, Li Zhichang had the greatest achievements and enjoyed the most honor. Under his leadership, the Quanzhen Sect reached its peak, which is why Xiao Yuesheng carefully glanced at him.

Indeed, several individuals emerged from the forest, with King Jinlun at the forefront, followed by a graceful young nobleman, who was none other than Huo Du. Behind Huo Du were several warriors, while Guo Fu and Wan Yan Ping stood with their hands lowered, anxiously looking over.

Huang Rong, being perceptive, noticed that he had something to say, but he appeared quite hesitant. She asked, "Guo'er, feel free to speak your mind. Is there perhaps a solution?"

Wanyan Ping looked pitifully anxious as she gazed at Xiao Yuesheng. Xiao Yuesheng smiled and nodded at her, softly conveying through telepathy: "Miss Wanyan, there is no need to panic. Just wait a moment, and I will surely rescue you."

Yang Guo, having endured loneliness and hardship since childhood, faced the cold gaze of others. Deep within, he harbored a sense of pride and aloofness, yet he could not escape moments of self-reproach. Now, having finally gained fame across the world, he feels a sense of relief and pride, inevitably leading to a certain degree of self-satisfaction

Xiao Yuesheng glanced at everyone, stood up, and cupped his hands in salute: "Hero Guo, Madam Guo, your daughter and Miss Wanyan went out riding for fun and were captured. I suspect it was the work of King Jinlun. The poison affecting his disciples may be beyond his ability to resolve, hence he resorted to this method to exchange for an antidote. There is no need for you both to worry."

Xiao Yuesheng smiled and said, "At this point, there is no other way; we will just have to meet King Jinlun and save the person."

Xiao Yuesheng had taught a lesson to King Jinlun, and then turned to Guo Jing, who was still in a daze, and clasped his hands in salute, saying: "Hero Guo, I must take my leave now"

He withdrew his palm and looked at the joyful expression that appeared on her delicate, lotus-like face. Thinking of the moment when his palm had brushed against her soft, dark hair, his heart involuntarily stirred. At that time, the woman's hair was of utmost importance; only very close elders and her husband were allowed to touch it, while others were forbidden.

King Jinlun felt a sense of panic in his heart. He waved his hand, signaling for a retreat. The warriors moved with precision, all being brave soldiers of the army, retreating without the slightest disorder.

He immediately stood up, took out the golden wheel that was placed on his back, and saw that one of the serrated edges of the wheel had been nearly broken, still stained with blood, which was his own blood from his back

He saw Yang Guo lost in thought and continued, "In fact, a person's fate is more like the rivers that flow across the world, and a person is merely a small fish in the river. The choice of which river to enter is largely beyond one's control"

Xiao Yuesheng patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "In my half a lifetime of observing people, I have encountered countless individuals, yet only a few have caught my eye. Brother Yang is one of them. Why must you belittle yourself? Your future achievements may very well surpass those of your Uncle Guo."

Xiao Yuesheng smiled and said: "Brother, you are currently standing at a critical crossroads, and I must remind you."

Xiao Yuesheng no longer held back, standing upright, with both hands forming a hand seal, his spirit gradually radiating outward, encompassing everything within a ten-mile radius.

Wanyan Ping shook her head, bowed slightly, and said: "Thank you, Brother Xiao"

"Do you believe in destiny, Brother Yang?" Xiao Yuesheng gently patted the carved pillar of the small pavilion with his left hand and turned to ask.

Exiting the hall, to the west is the wing, and to the east are the garden, rockery, flowing water, and a small pavilion. Although not large, it boasts an exquisite landscape, making it an excellent place for relaxation.

Guo Jing was also delighted, patting Huang Rong's hand, and turned to Xiao Yuesheng with a smile, saying: "Thank you, Young Hero Xiao. Your extraordinary skills have truly opened my eyes."

Huang Rong shouted, "Fu'er!"

Yang Guo's face turned slightly red; he had originally thought that Brother Xiao would reprimand him for his arrogance, but unexpectedly, he received praise instead

Xiao Yue was taken aback for a moment, then thought to himself that this must be the work of Huang Rong from mhetushu.com. Although she meant well, both Yang Guo and he would have to suffer. Fortunately, they only faced some scares without any real danger; enduring these hardships could be considered a beautiful memory in their later years, he thought to himself, feeling neither pain nor discomfort.

Yang Guo deeply felt that it was reasonable and nodded slightly

Although Guo Jing showed a slight hint of anxiety between his brows, he maintained a calm demeanor and said in a measured tone: "However, the Golden Wheel Dharma King possesses exceptional martial arts skills, and I have no confidence in rescuing anyone from his grasp."

Yang Guo shook his head in confusion

Guo Jing was momentarily taken aback, and only then did he understand. He lightly circulated his internal energy and gently struck Guo Fu's body with two palms, yet there was still no effect

Xiao Yue nodded slightly and said: "At that time, it was an urgent situation, and I did not dare to hesitate. I was mistakenly understood by Madam Guo as your esteemed father arriving, which was not my intention at all. I hope Madam Guo can forgive me."

The King of the Golden Wheel, possessing exceptional martial skills, naturally had a keen sense of perception. In an instant, he sensed the location, focused his mind, and opened his eyes to say: "I have found it, approximately one mile to the west"

As soon as her acupoints were unblocked, she did not utter a word of thanks, but immediately threw herself into Huang Rong's embrace, crying out loud, which instantly calmed his heart. He couldn't help but sigh to himself, Miss Guo truly lives up to her reputation, indeed quite spoiled.

Xiao Yue nodded slightly, holding a wine glass in her left hand, gently shaking it to let the aroma of the wine waft out, and asked softly: "Ziming, the journey has been quite arduous, hasn't it?"

At that moment, someone knocked on the door, and a servant entered, reporting that Hero Guo requests your presence

Xiao Yuesheng smiled with delight, turned around, and cupped his hands towards Guo Jing and the others, saying: "Hero Guo, I have urgent matters to attend to, so I must take my leave from all of you. Please allow my servant to return home on his own. The green mountains remain unchanged, and the waters continue to flow; we shall meet again in the future"

At this moment, the attention of the others was entirely focused on Miss Guo, and the Wu brothers were particularly fixated on Guo Fu.

Having spoken, he set down his wine cup, rose to his feet, and glanced at Yang Guo. Just as Yang Guo looked over in surprise, he nodded slightly at him and turned to walk out of the hall.

Although Xiao Yuesheng was captivated by the shy beauty of the woman, the movements and stillness around him could not escape his perception. At this moment, he turned to the already retreating King of the Golden Wheel and said: "King of the Golden Wheel, convey to your master that if any Mongolian warriors enter the Central Plains again, do not blame me for being ruthless!" After speaking, he flicked his fingers lightly, and without a sound, the King of the Golden Wheel was propelled from his horse, tumbling in the air before crashing to the ground

The Golden Wheel Dharma King and the others were astonished by Xiao Yuesheng's astonishing lightness of body, as such a swift and ghostly movement was exceedingly dangerous. Perhaps you have not yet realized that the danger is already upon you, making it nearly impossible to defend against. He thought to himself: I have never heard of such a person in the Central Plains martial arts world. Before coming here, His Highness had mentioned that the Central Plains martial arts world is filled with hidden talents and countless masters. I had previously thought this was an exaggeration, but it turns out that his words were indeed true. This thought inevitably gave rise to a desire to retreat.

Xiao Yue Sheng hurriedly pressed down on his arm and said: "No! Hero Gu, absolutely not."

Xiao Yuansheng walked through the corridor, entered the small pavilion, and sat down to wait for Yang Guo

Sun Ziming approached him, standing with his hands down and said: "Young Master, I have finally found you."

Although Guo Jing and his wife did not understand why Yang Guo had such confidence in his brother Xiao, the situation was urgent, and they could not afford to consider anything else. Huang Rong, despite her unparalleled wit and intelligence, was now in a state of confusion, her mind in disarray, unable to think of any solutions. She hurriedly asked, "May I inquire what plans Young Hero Xiao has?"

Sun Ziming has mastered the Nine Yin Manual. Although the Nine Yin Manual is of little significance in Xiao Yuesheng's eyes, it is nonetheless a treasure that the four greatest masters of the current era all desire. It represents the pinnacle of martial arts, a supreme skill in the martial world. In the past, the couple Mei Chaofeng only obtained the latter half, yet they became exceedingly formidable. Without the first half of the Nine Yin skills, the power of the latter half cannot even be fully realized, which demonstrates its remarkable nature

Xiao Yuansheng said: "The young lady has been struck at a hidden acupoint; it is imperative not to forcefully break through, otherwise it will surely harm her body"

Hmm?

Elder brother!" Yang Guo called out anxiously, bringing him back to his senses

Xiao Yuesheng knew that after a short wait, the romance between Yang Guo and Xiaolongnü would be made public, at which point there would be no room for maneuver, marking the beginning of their numerous hardships

Xiao Yue Sheng humbly led the two of them westward

Xiao Yuesheng laughed heartily and said, "Good, good, truly worthy of being my good brother Xiao Yuesheng. A man, a true man, should be like this"
