Reborn: Revenge of the Concubine's Daughter-Chapter 340 - A vastly different person after a sleep

Jiang Pi escaped while vomiting blood, turned his head, and saw that Liao Zhiyuan was tasting a peach. He became angry and roared with the blood spitting out of his mouth, “Master Liao, you do nothing to save me! You heartless bastard! I saved your life the day before yesterday. Don’t you know how to repay the kindness?” As he said this, he dodged Duan Xiaolou’s fist thrillingly, and felt the burning pain of his cheek swept by the fist.

Liao Zhiyuan nibbled two more peaches, and responded leisurely, “Young Childe Jiang, have you heard “giving kindness without expecting rewards”? Go and ask Master Lanling for help.” He bit the peach, and gradually lost in thought.

Jiang Pi almost couldn’t bear Duan Xiaolou’s fist. He felt that if he didn’t ask for foreign aid, he might be killed. At that time, he was unconscious of his face. He raised his head towards the second floor and shouted, “Brother! Song Fei! Dashing Sky Eagle! Help! Help!”

But no one even responded to the shouts. Jiang Pi originally had the old wounds left by yesterday’s battle, and he was healed with the secret recipe “Ice and Fire Mix” of his school. Now he had been recovered a little, but suddenly attacked without knowing the reason. He still couldn’t figure out what he did wrong. They talked much vulgar in the past, even making fun of He Danggui, but Master Duan had never been like this. What was going on?

Damn it! Didn’t Master Duan suffer more serious internal injuries? Why was his fist more violent than in the past? Who had rattled his cage! Why he was so angry?

“Dashing Sky Eagle!” Jiang Pi shouted towards the second floor again, “I helped you and suffered a palm of the enemy yesterday. I saved your life! Now it’s your turn to save me! Master Duan has gone mad. Later you can only bury my body! Help!”

After a short while, a voice came from upstairs. It was the glib man quarreled with Du Yao just now, “Not free! I’m queuing up for sleeping with the little beauty! I’m next to Du Yao! Ha-ha, she is so pretty!”

Jiang Pi struggled to dodge Duan Xiaolou’s fist, who was so cruel that he seemingly wanted to suck a person’s blood. Jiang Pi cried out in a weird voice, “Master Duan is out of his mind. Go to Luo’s Family and tie He Danggui towards him to calm him down. He is insane!” As saying that, a fist punched Jiang Pi’s lower abdomen. The pain caused him to burst into tears and take several steps back, and the bloodstain overflew from his lips.

Jiang Pi felt that the injury caused by this punch was much severe than the internal injury made by the group of people in purple clothes yesterday. If it was not his Zhenqi for protecting the body, he might have been a corpse at this moment. He stared at Duan Xiaolou incredibly and let out an anguished yell, with his teeth stained bright red, “Duan Xiaolou, I have been in friendship with you for twelve years, but you beat me so violently only for He Danggui!”

The characters “He Danggui” were like a spell, suddenly inspiring more potential of Duan Xiaolou. He didn’t say anything, but his fist was several times faster than before, just like the tornado killing anyone once encountered, wreaking havoc in the lobby of the wild inn. As he moved, the tables and chairs around him all turned into debris, drifting everywhere and covering the first floor.

The two servants behind the counter had already run away, but Liao Zhiyuan on the side of the hall was undisturbed. There was seemingly a natural barrier to isolate the sharp sawdust and reject the wind of the fist from everywhere. Liao Zhiyuan threw away the walnut he had eaten, and began to peel a mango, while persuading Duan Xiaolou spitefully, “Xiaolou, leave him alive. He is glib and you just need to unroot his tongue. Then he won’t be able to reopen our old sores.”

Duan Xiaolou seemed to have become a zombie killer controlled by Liao Zhiyuan. After receiving the instruction, Duan Xiaolou stretched out two half-curved fingers from his clenched right fist directly towards Jiang Pi’s eye sockets. When the latter drew back his palm to protect his eyes, a small dagger slipped from the cuff of Duan Xiaolou’s left hand and was inserted between Jiang Pi’s lips relentlessly, intending to pry his gritted teeth.

Liao Zhiyuan was witnessing the battle and chuckled. He lowered his head and took a bite of the mango flesh. He said with a smile, “It’s for real. It seems that Master Duan is enraged. I have to be more cautious in the future...” Suddenly, he raised his head towards upstairs and yelled, “Dashing Sky Eagle, have you finished? Is it my turn?”

After saying that, a dark shadow that looked like a black bat dashed down from the barrier circle where Liao Zhiyuan was seated inside, with a bird-like posture. The space at the inn was too small to find anything special about the man’s art of lightness, but once in the infinite space outside, that kind of magical skill free from gravity and seemingly allowing birds to fly in the unlimited sky was indeed consistent with the title “Dashing Sky Eagle”.

He was the night crawler with the best art of lightness in the world, known as the “Xue Xiao Thirteenth Gentleman”, a senior of Ninja School in Nihon. His art of lightness was more mature than that of Zhu Quan, Chang Nuo, and Meng Xuan as well as other juvenile masters. Even Gao Jue’s Dun Shu, disappearing with a flash, couldn’t match his skills if they battled with each other for three days.

Xue Xiao Thirteenth Gentleman once said that when he was a teenager, he had carried a sampan in his left hand and dry food in his right hand. He only wore a diving suit and “flew” directly from Nihon to the coast of China. When he was tired, he stood on the sampan treading water. If the sampan turned over and was broken by the waves, he paddled with chips. Eating dry food when he was hungry and asking the seabirds in the sky and the fish of the seabed for water to drink when he was thirsty. He traveled for a thousand miles from morning till night and reached the inner land at dusk. He guffawed that Zhuang Zhou, the ancient sage of the middle land China, wrote in Carefree Excursion that “Liehtse could ride upon the wind. Sailing happily in the cool breeze, he would go on for fifteen days before his return.” and that “As for one who is charioted upon the eternal fitness of Heaven and Earth, driving before him the changing elements as his team to roam through the realms of the Infinite.” He asked how about him comparing with the narration. fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

Liao Zhiyuan looked at the man in blue, who was nearly 40 years old, falling from mid-air. He let his chest open in the chilly wind. His face was purple, and the belt around his waist was loose. He must have just struggled out of a beauty’s arms.

The two men in the battle had long ignored life and death. Jiang Pi had shown a pair of bronze square sword breakers, and Duan Xiaolou applied the halberd that he had used to kill the enemy. The two were best friends and always together, but their war turned from the initial trivial battle to a life-and-death fight due to a few words. Both sides suffered internal injuries, but they battled with bloody eyes as if intending to dismantle the small unstable inn. Liao Zhiyuan turned a blind eye to the scene and seemed to have taken it for granted. He smiled and asked Xue Xiao, “Bro, where did you get the girl? Is she beautiful?”

Xue Xiao shook the dozens of pigtails on his head, and said nonchalantly, “It wasn’t caught, but she took the initiative to send herself to us. Seeing we didn’t let her go, she began to cry and said that she was a young lady from a rich family and we couldn’t treat her impolitely. Song Fei attacked her mute acupoint and threw her on the bed. I haven’t touched girls for days because I’m too lazy to find one, but a girl delivers herself to me, so there is no reason not to enjoy it. A lady should embroider ducks in her boudoir, and others walking around on the street are considered hookers.”

“Ha! You are right.” Liao Zhiyuan plucked a banana and handed it over to him, inquiring, “Is the girl a virgin?”

Xue Xiao replied, “Song Fei is sensible that he let me have a try first, but I find she is a virgin and lose interest at once. You know, I don’t like the blood when I make out with someone, so I leave her to Song Fei. I heard that the two of them have exchanged solemn vows. Ha! Women just like this... A vastly different person after a sleep. She even called him ‘husband’, not like a girl from a respectable family.”

“Did they vow to each other?” Liao Zhiyuan ate the last bite of mango flesh, and sighed regretfully, “So Song Fei is going to marry her? Then I have no chance to sleep with her. He is not a loyal friend, enjoying the beauty alone early in the morning.”

Duan Xiaolou and Jiang Pi on the side had fought for hundreds of rounds. Things in the main hall of the entire inn were all smashed. Accompanied by the fierce fighting between the two, there was crying from upstairs. The voice came from the other side of the second floor. But it could be heard that the muffled sound of a female like a songbird shouted “dear”, “I’m done”, etc.

With a mocking smile on Liao Zhiyuan’s face, he took out a small dagger from his arms, drew out half of the scabbard, and took the blade as a mirror. Then he shook his head and sighed, “Since there is nothing funny here, I will go back to the city. If you want to find me, you can ask Gao Jue, and he knows where to find me.”

Xue Xiao persuaded him to stay, “Why not stay here? There is nothing happening today. You can tell me something interesting about the Northwest Army. I love to hear that. Master Liao, except for Master Duan, I like listening to your story the most. It sounds better than the words of the storyteller.”

Liao Zhiyuan smiled and squinted. Then he shook his head and said, “My speech sounds good? How? I think the shouting of the delicate lady upstairs is more pleasing, and it made me tickled. If I don’t go back to the city to find a girl, I’m going to disturb the tryst of the ‘couple’ upstairs.” The hilt of the dagger turned, and he looked tired and crazy in his cat eyes, not like extremely delighted, but greatly painful.

Xue Xiao waved his hand and calmed him, “Don’t worry. It’s your turn soon after Song Fei gets finished. I go upstairs and talk to him. I promise they both won’t say anything. Even if he is reluctant to share with you, there is a beauty sleeping in Du Yao’s arms in the opposite room.”

“Oh?” Liao Zhiyuan was quite interested, “There is another beauty? What’s going on today? Two lambs are sent to the pack of the wolves. Is it an extra meal?”

Xue Xiao ate the banana and unscrupulously threw the peel into the center of Duan Xiaolou and Jiang Pi’s battlefield. He took a sip of tea and said, “I’m telling you that the beauty in Du Yao’s arm loves scratching people. At first, she was going to land a punch on Du Yao and was beat senseless by Jiang Yi who passed by. When she woke up, she pierced him with a small needle. Du Yao described her as ’little pepper’, but I think she is the pod pepper, the spiciest one among all pepper. Besides, she is a knockout, even much more beautiful than the lady sleeping with Du Yao. I’m waiting in line. Master Liao, it’s your turn after I’m done. Don’t grab her with me.”

“Oh? An exceedingly beautiful lady in the world?” Liao Zhiyuan turned his cat eyes full of curiosity, and asked with a smile, “What kind of exceeding beauty?”

“First-class, snow-white skin, rosy cheeks, and good looks... Every man wants her after witnessing her beauty.”
