Chapter 90

Once the silver were taken away, the people in the gambling den dispersed as well. Xuanyuan San Guang looked at the brightening sky, stretched his back and mumbled, “Old Man Ge, damn that I really have to wait until darkness is gone, the people are gone and the money is gone, anyway until everything is gone before I can sleep.” He suddenly realized that not everyone in the gambling den has left, there are still four people there, two lying on the floor, as if asleep.

The other two are looking at him and grinning.

Xuanyuan San Guang stared and said, “Why are you two son of turtles not gone yet, you still want to bet with me?” The taller of the two interrupted, “There’s only one and a half son of turtles here, and half is the daughter of turtles.”

Xuanyuan San Guang’s eyes became even larger, and stared at the shorter person. Du Jiao Jiao giggled, “There’s only one son of turtles here, I am your great grandmother.”

She did not know that Xuanyuan San Guang had recognized her, and did not expect that without waiting for her to finish her words, Xuanyuan San Guang had ran out the door like a cat whose tail has been stepped on.

By the time Du Jiao Jiao gave chase, Xuanyuan San Guang had disappeared, but those people on the street were all turning their heads and looking towards the left.

Obviously Xuanyuan San Guang had escaped towards the left.

Du Jiao Jiao smiled, “Don’t worry, that compulsive gambler’s Lightness Skill has never been very good, we’ll certainly be able to catch up.”

She had just finished her words when Xuanyuan San Guang suddenly retreated from the street on the left side, and his retreat is even much faster than when he was escaping.

Once he retreated to this street, he turned around and ran back towards this side, his face filled with panic and dashed back into the gambling den. Naturally Du Jiao Jiao followed him back in.

Bai Kai Xin laughed, “What are you doing? Have you seen a ghost?”

Xuanyuan San Guang placed his eyes at the gap in the door and peeked outside, mumbling, “Really met a big headed ghost.”

He looked even more nervous, his face turning a little pale. Du Jiao Jiao and Bai Kai Xin exchanged looks and can’t help but looked out through the door gap as well, and really saw two men walking out from the street on the left.

The person walking in front was very tall with broad shoulders, but as think as a stick, and wearing a short blue robe, looking exactly like a giant made of paper. Once the wind blows, he will be blown up the roof. Not only does he look weird, his face is very strange as well, because although his face is full of wrinkles, but there’s no beard on him at all, or even eyebrows.

His eyes are so thin it has sunken in, so it looked especially large. His face may be sallow and thin, like a sick man, but once matched with that pair of eyes, he looked powerful, not someone to be trifled with.

Bai Kai Xin said, “This lad looks really weird. I’ve actually never seen or heard that there’s such a strange person in the martial arts realm, apparently I have been too lazy for the past few years.”

Du Jiao Jiao can’t help but furrow her brows and asked, “Compulsive Gambler, do you recognize this person?”

Xuanyuan San Guang replied, “No.” His eyes were staring at the person behind this strange man.

The man walking behind the strange man, does not look strange at all, but looked very handsome instead. He is past middle age, but his face is very well maintained. The colors he wore were very well coordinated, very distinguished, it’s just that he is trying his best to fake a smile, but he still looked dejected and worried.

This person is surprisingly Jiang Bie He.

Du Jiao Jiao was even more surprised, and furrowed her brows, “Why isn’t Jiang Bie He following Wei Wu Ya? But came with this weird guy instead?”

At this point in time, a horse suddenly rushed out from the street corner on the right. The horse is red in color, like a ball of fire, flying into this street, and looked almost like it’s going to knock down a noodle stall at the side of the street. But the horse rider’s skill is not too bad, and right in the critical instant, stopped the horse, and not even a single bowl was broken.

Only now did everyone manage to take a proper look at this rider, who like the horse, was clad in red, the hand holding on a fiery red horsewhip. As the noble horse was quietly panting, she has come down from the saddle. And so everyone realized that her looks is even more outstanding that her horse riding skills, her mischievous and lively large eyes were so beautiful that it takes one’s breath away.

Everyone’s eyes were looking at her, but she treated those people as if they were dead, not taking even a single look at them, but just stamped her foot and called out, “Hey, come quickly, is yours a three-legged horse?” At this time another horse came running from the end of the street, and the person on the horse replied, “It’s not me who is slow, it’s you who riding too fast.” As he spoke, this person came down the horse as well, his moves agile, and he is a refined, gentle young man, the material his clothes were made of very expensive as well.

The young girl in red pouted and stared, “Who dares to say that I ride too fast, have I ever knocked anyone down?” That young man realized that many were looking at her, and he seemed to be blushing as he stammered, “You… you’re not fast. It’s… it’s me who is too slow.”

Only now did the young girl in red smile, “Now that’s a good boy, Big Sister here will treat you to supper.”

The youth’s face blushed even redder, and dare not even lift his head up. Everyone felt that this young man is too gentle, too shy, like a big girl, but this girl is too difficult, too fiery, that makes one difficult to swallow.

Even that weird man took notice of this young couple, and only Jiang Bie He, on seeing these two, immediately lowered his head. Because only Jiang Bie He knows who these two are. The young girl in red is Little Fairy Zhang Qing; this very gentle, very shy young man, naturally is the young master of the Godly Fist family, Gu Ren Yu.

Little Fairy beamed and said, “Today can be considered Miss Jiu’s good day, I’m very happy as well, so I must have a good meal, and a few good drinks.” Gu Ren Yu can’t help but sigh quietly.

Little Fairy stared at him immediately and asked, “Why are you sighing? Now that Miss Jiu has someone else, are you feeling very bad?”

Gu Ren Yu hurriedly smiled and replied, “Why would I feel bad, I… I…” Not only was his face red, his neck reddened as well.

Little Fairy guffawed and said, “It’s best that you don’t feel bad. Look, they actually have steamed meat, and pearl meatballs here, I have not eaten such snacks for a few years, because besides Hu Bei, those made by other places are all not as nice.” She chattered, talked and laughed, and just as she dragged Gu Ren Yu to the stall and sat down, she suddenly stood up again, and staring at Jiang Bie He standing on the opposite side, said, “Look, who is that?”

Gu Ren Yu followed her gaze and looked over, the expression on his face changed as well and asked quietly, “Why is he here as well.”

Little Fairy laughed icily, “That’s right, the awe inspiring Hero of Jiang Nan, why would he hide at a small town like this, or could he be ashamed to see others. No wonder those in the martial arts realm says that Hero Jiang has disappeared.”

The volume of voice, even the deaf would have heard her, and there are some on the streets who knows about the Hero of Jiang Nan, and can’t help but turn and look at Jiang Bie He. Only Jiang Bie He seemed not to have heard anything, and walked ahead with his head lowered, as if he was wishing that he could walk to the end of the street with just one step.

But Little Fairy walked to his front with just one step, and said with an icy smile, “Jiang Bie He, Hero Jiang, why aren’t you talking? Weren’t you very good in talking in the past? And I still remember how remarkable you were.”

Not only did Jiang Bie He not reply, he did not even lift his head.

Little Fairy said fiercely, “Jiang Bie He, you need not pretend, there’s no use in pretending, there’s a lot of people looking for you to settle some old scores, so you better come with me.”

Jiang Bie He stood there, not even moving, without a single expression on his face. The mighty Hero Jiang, is now like a dead man. The weird guy standing next to him suddenly exclaimed, “He cannot leave with you!” This person’s voice is deep and hoarse, as if he has torn his voice box, and the sound he emitted were squeezed out word by word from the tears in the voice box.

Little Fairy suddenly saw this person, and heard his voice, and can’t help but blurt out in surprise, “Why can’t he leave with me?”

The weird guy replied, “Because he has to come with me.”

Little Fairy exclaimed angrily, “Leave with you, who do you think you are!” As she shouted, the whip in her hand flew out as well. This whip, once in her hands, seems to have become a living, poisonous snake, or a moving flame, curling towards that weird man’s face. 𝘧𝗿ee𝚠𝙚𝙗𝑛o𝚟𝐞l.𝐜૦𝗺

But that weird man’s reaction was a little retarded, as if he did not know that it’ll be painful if the whip is lashed at his face, and just stared at the whip in a daze.

Just as this whip was about to leave a blood stain on his face, who would have expected that once the end of the whip was in his hand, the long whip suddenly broke into ten over pieces, each piece dropping to the floor. Little Fairy stood unsteadily and retreated a few steps, finally falling into Gu Ren Yu’s arms.

Others only saw the whip break, Little Fairy fall, and as to how did that weird man strike, how was his strength executed, no one saw.

Even Little Fairy can’t figure out what happened, she only felt a strange power traveling through the long whip and her body immediately felt as if it’s been stuck by lightning. If it was someone else, to have suddenly experienced such frightening martial arts, would either be half scared to death, or would never dare to strike again. Ever since Little Fairy roamed the realm, she has never taken such a beating.

On seeing this weird person’s martial arts, Gu Ren Yu had wanted to quietly persuade her to bear with it, but who would have expected that she would jump up, and drew out two short swords.

The reflection from the swords shone like lightning, and right at that instant, Little Fairy had struck seven times at that weird man, every attack aiming to cut through him.

The weird man lightly scolded, and without even taking a good look at how he moved, Little Fairy’s two swords suddenly flew out from her hands! Like two green rays of sparks, it flickered in the darkened sky before disappearing to who knows where.

Taking another look at Little Fairy, she has fallen into Gu Ren Yu’s arms again, but no matter how much strength she used this time, she can forget about standing back up again.

The weird man asked solemnly, “Whose disciple are you? How dare you strike so heavily without any reason? Are the juniors in the martial arts realm becoming more and more ignorant about the rules?”

Little Fairy scolded, “You are the junior! You don’t know the rules, do you know…” Her voice suddenly stopped, because Gu Ren Yu can’t take it anymore and covered her mouth.

Little Fairy used all the remaining strength in her body and elbowed him in the stomach. Although Gu Ren Yu released his hold in pain, but her body slid down to the floor as well and she actually sat on the floor. She might as well remain on the floor and pointing her finger at Gu Ren Yu’s nose, she said, “I have been bullied thus, and not only are you not helping me, but you’re refusing to let me speak, what kind of a man are you! No wonder others are calling you Sister Gu.”

Gu Ren Yu’s face blushed red and he stammered, “I… I… I really…”

“I really was mistaken about you. I had thought that you were a man, who would have expected that you’re… you’re softer than tofu, you really sadden me.” As she finished her sentence, tears were already flowing down her face.

Gu Ren Yu suddenly gritted his teeth and took a large step towards that weird man and shouted, “Your martial arts is indeed marvelous, but I would still like to exchange some pointers with you.” The weird man had a solemn look, but did not speak.

Gu Ren Yu exclaimed, “Take note, I am going to strike!” He may be a little wishy-washy as a person, but when he fought he’s actually quite swift, and also stable, vicious, accurate and fast.

The punch landed right on the weird man’s body, but strangely, that weird man did not try to avoid this punch at all.

Little Fairy’s tears stopped flowing, her eyes shone as well, because she has known long ago the potency of the Gu family’s Godly Fist, and also knows very well how strong Gu Ren Yu is.

Gu Ren Yu’s martial arts may not be showy, but it’s very pure, if his punch were to land solidly, even a cow would have been flattened by him, much less a man.

Little Fairy almost wanted to clap, but she immediately realized that the weird man was not flattened at all, and even his expression has not changed. Gu Ren Yu’s inherited Godly Fist, when struck on him, seems to be massaging his back instead. Instead, it was Gu Ren Yu who stood unsteadily, almost falling.

Only now was Little Fairy truly shocked, and that weird man stared at Gu Ren Yu and asked, “Who are you to Gu Lao Si (Lao Si = number four)?”

Cold sweat appeared on Gu Ren Yu’s forehead and he asked, “Could it be that Elder… Elder is acquainted with my father?”

That weird man ‘humphed’ and said, “I heard that Gu Lao Si have always been very strict with his family, how can he possibly let a disciple like you flaunt about in the martial arts realm? It must be known that for those who knows martial arts, the more they should learn self control. If one fight just because of some disagreement, then that is the behavior of thieves and robbers, haven’t your Father taught you this before?”

Gu Ren Yu dared not even lift up his head as he was reprimanded, much less speak, but Little Fairy can’t help but shout, “Who are you really? What gives you the right to lecture us?”

Jiang Bie He stood by the side like a log, and was not surprised at all, as if he has long known that once this weird man strike, he will surely be able to defeat Little Fairy and Gu Ren Yu.

Now he suddenly laughed, “Don’t you even know who this esteemed one is? He is Hero Yan Nan Tian!”

Yan Nan Tian!

Once these three words were spoken, Little Fairy dare not be insolent any further. Her eyes were staring, her mouth agape, unable to close at all. Gu Ren Yu had already flipped himself over and bowed down. Even the ruffians who were coming out from the gambling den, those who have heard of the name ‘Yan Nan Tian’, were so scared that they dare not even breath too loudly.

Yan Nan Tian said solemnly, “Jiang Bie He will never be able to cheat and or do any evil, so you need not settle any more scores with him, because someone else will be settling scores with him first, and it’s a debt that was made twenty years ago.”

Gu Ren Yu sweated profusely and stammered, “Yes… yes…” Yan Nan Tian continued, “I hope that you will not bully others with your martial arts in future, or kill rashly?”

Gu Ren Yu lowered his head, “Yes.”

Yan Nan Tian waved his hand and said, “You may leave.”

Bai Kai Xin and Du Jiao Jiao, who were hiding behind the door, were so frightened that their legs have gone soft, the clothes on their back soaked with sweat. Although Xuanyuan San Guang was also a little guilt ridden and frightened on seeing Yan Nan Tian, but he was not as scared as them. Looking at their reaction, Xuanyuan San Guang can’t help but laugh and said calmly, “Why are you son of turtles no longer shouting? I heard that you people trapped Yan Nan Tian in the Valley of Evil for twenty years. I did not believe it at first, but now it seems that this is true after all.”

Bai Kai Xin interrupted, “She, Da Zui and the rest did it, it’s none of my business.”

Xuanyuan San Guang laughed, “Since it’s none of your business, then why are you son of turtle so afraid?”

Bai Kai Xin asked, “Aren’t you afraid of seeing him as well?”

Xuanyuan San Guang replied, “I have not done as much evil as you, so I need not be as frightened as you son of turtle.” 𝗳𝘳𝒆𝘦𝑤𝐞𝚋𝗻𝚘𝘷𝘦𝙡.𝑐𝐨𝘮

Bai Kai Xin suddenly beamed and said, “As the saying goes, there’s only those who force themselves on others, but no one who forces others to gamble, so forcing others to gamble is even worse that forcing oneself on others. The most evil thing I have done is forcing myself on others, but you… heh heh, just you wait and see, if Yan Nan Tian knows that you’re Compulsive Gambler, it’ll be strange if he doesn’t beat your brains out.”

Xuanyuan San Guang wiped his sweat off, speechless. The three of them wished that Yan Nan Tian would quickly take Jiang Bie He far, far away, but who would have expected Yan Nan Tian to order a flask of wine, took a seat at the stall and started drinking.

Jiang Bie He stood at the side with his hands slumped, not daring to walk, not daring to sit. Others were so frightened that they can’t sit properly as well, and even hands of the boss of the stall were shaking. But Yan Nan Tian behaved as if no one else was there, and kept on drinking cup by cup, heaving a long sigh with every cup he drank, as if he is troubled.

Xuanyuan San Guang furrowed his brows and mumbled, “Why would Jiang Bie He that son of turtle be together with Yan Nan Tian? This is really strange.”

He thought that no one would answer his question, but Du Jiao Jiao suddenly sighed and said, “Now I remember Jiang Bie He’s background.”

“What is his background?”

“He must be Jiang Qin?”

“Who is Jiang Qin?”

“When Yan Nan Tian went to the Valley of Evil, he said he wanted to find Jiang Qin to seek revenge, because Jiang Qin caused the death of his sworn brother Jiang Feng.”

Xuanyuan San Guang was stunned and asked, “Since he wants to look for Jiang Qin to take revenge, why don’t he just kill him now instead of running around the streets with him?”

“Because he wants to find Xiao Yu’er first, and have Xiao Yu’er take revenge with his own hands.”

“That’s right, this could be the reason, but what if he cannot find Xiao Yu’er?”

Bai Kai Xin suddenly grinned again, “I’m afraid he will never find that little imp in this life time.”

Xuanyuan San Guang asked in surprise, “Why not?”

Bai Kai Xin opened his mouth, but only smiled and did not speak, because Du Jiao Jiao had quietly grabbed hold of his hand.

Right at this time, they suddenly saw someone holding a flask of wine walking towards the small stall that Yan Nan Tian was sitting at, and sat next to Yan Nan Tian. A lantern was hanging on the noodle stall, and the light shone on this person’s face. He looked young and refined, but his face was frighteningly pale.

Xuanyuan San Guang was again surprised and said, “Isn’t this son of turtle Jiang Bie He’s son, Jiang Yu Lang?”

Bai Kai Xin replied, “That’s right.”

Jiang Yu Lang did not seemed to have noticed his father, and Jiang Bie He behaved as if he doesn’t know him as well. Father and son, none took a look at the other.

Xuanyuan San Guang furrowed his brows, “What is this father and son pair up to?”

Du Jiao Jiao replied, “It seems that he must be here to save his old man.”

Xuanyuan San Guang laughed coldly, “Just that little bastard, I’m afraid he’s not that capable.”

Du Jiao Jiao suddenly smiled, “He may not be very capable, but he is full of tricks. Even Xiao Yu’er will sometimes be tricked by him.”

Xuanyuan San Guang stared and laughed frostily, “I know he is full of tricks, but compared to Xiao Yu’er, he’s still a long way off.”

Du Jiao Jiao rolled her eyes, not talking further. She already found out that this Compulsive Gambler is on good terms with Xiao Yu’er, or he’ll not have spoken up for him.

By now Jiang Yu Lang is already offering a toast to Yan Nan Tian, and laughing as he chatted. Obviously Yan Nan Tian does not know that he is Jiang Bie He’s son, so he did not make things difficult for him. After saying a few words, Yan Nan Tian suddenly stood up and exclaimed loudly, “You really know Jiang Xiao Yu?”

Jiang Yu Lang stood up as well and smiled condescendingly, “Not only do I know him, but it can be considered that we’ve gone through thick and thin together.”

Yan Nan Tian grabbed his shoulders and asked, “You.. have you seen him recently?”

“He was still drinking with me two days ago…” Without waiting for him to finish his words, Yan Nan Tian interrupted, “Do you know where he is now?”

Jiang Yu Lang sighed and replied, “He’s always roaming around, but I may be able to find him.”

Yan Nan Tuan asked, “Really?”

Jiang Yu Lang replied with a bow, “No matter how bold I am, I dare not lie to Elder.”

Tan Nan Tian replied, “Good, good, good…” He’s really overjoyed, and actually uttered the word ‘good’ more than ten times, forgetting to loosen the hands that were grabbing Jiang Yu Lang’s shoulders tightly as well.

Although Jiang Yu Lang’s bones were almost breaking from his strength, but his face revealed a smile.

Jiang Bie He’s eyes shimmered, and suddenly exclaimed loudly, “This lad is of dubious background, how can Hero Yan believe him so easily.”

Yan Nan Tian roared angrily, “Shut up, there’s no place for you to talk when I’m around.” He hurriedly threw some copper coins on the table and dragged Jiang Yu Lang away. Jiang Be He can only follow dejectedly with his head lowered, but the corners of his mouth curved up secretly into a smile.
