"You guys are so bad, yet you want to fight my young master? I really don't know where you get the courage."

With a single move, A Zi forced Wu Xiuru and Wu Xiwen to kneel down, shaking her head in disdain.

"Such speed! What kind of martial art is this?"

"Her cultivation level is also quite high; she has already reached the Innate Realm!"

"As expected of Murong Nan, even a lowly maid has such martial arts skills."

The onlookers discussed and pointed, their admiration for Murong Fu growing stronger.

Guo Jing was both delighted and ashamed.

He was overjoyed because if a mere maid like Azi was so strong, then Murong Fu must be no less capable. He felt ashamed because his two disciples were utterly useless, unable to withstand even a single move from a young woman.

Huang Rong, however, was simply dissatisfied and frowned, saying, "Practicing Confucianism and literature? Get out of here! You're making a fool of yourself!"

Wu Xiuru and Wu Xiuwen lowered their heads and retreated dejectedly.

Huang Rong said, "Young Master Murong, you truly have impressive skills."

Murong Fu said modestly, "Their martial arts are not as superb as those of Peach Blossom Island. They were just careless and did not expect Azi to be so fast. If they were given another chance, they would probably be better off."

Huang Rong shook her head and said, "Hehe, it's just a matter of holding out for a few more moves, there's no difference."

Murong Fu asked directly, "Madam Guo, are you satisfied with my son-in-law?"

Huang Rong was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "Treat Fu'er well, she has never suffered since she was a child."

"Mother~"

Guo Fu blushed, stomped her foot shyly, and spoke as if she were about to get married.

Guo Fu never expected that she would be getting married so soon after coming here just to watch the fun.

Guo Jing earnestly advised, "Fu'er, you are about to become a wife. You must listen to your husband, change your temper, and not be as willful as before."

"..." Guo Fu blushed even more and whispered, "Fu'er knows."

As she spoke, Guo Fu cautiously raised her head, her gaze meeting Murong Fu's, and her face immediately turned even redder.

Murong Fu smiled slightly, "A true gentleman indeed."

"Congratulations to Young Master Murong on winning the heart of your beauty, and congratulations to Hero Guo on gaining a worthy son-in-law."

"Congratulations, Young Master Murong..."

Many guests realized what was happening and echoed the sentiment.

Murong Fu thanked everyone for their gifts, and his humble and polite demeanor made Guo Jing even more satisfied.

Murong Fu steered the conversation back on track: "Father-in-law, Mother-in-law, the focus today is the Heroes' Gathering; you shouldn't concern yourselves too much with me."

Guo Jing said, "That's right, Young Master Murong is right."

Huang Rong reminded him, "Brother Jing, you're still calling him Young Master Murong. You should call him son-in-law from now on."

“Yes, yes, Madam is absolutely right.” Guo Jing nodded happily. “My dear son-in-law, you and Fu’er chat for a while, your mother-in-law and I will continue to organize the Heroes’ Gathering.”

"Yes, Father-in-law, please continue."

Murong Fu clasped his hands in a fist salute and went straight to Guo Fu's side.

Guo Fu lowered her head, her hands nervously clutching the hem of her clothes, looking somewhat lost.

Murong Fu whispered in her ear, "Fu'er, I'm not very familiar with this place. Why don't you show me around?"

A warm breeze blew into Guo Fu's earlobe. She hummed in response, her little head bobbing slightly, before nervously walking out.

...

The two arrived at a small grove of trees outside Lu Family Village.

"The scenery here is beautiful, the flowers are beautiful, and the people are even more beautiful."

As if by magic, Murong Fu produced a datura flower and placed it in Guo Fu's hair.

Guo Fu was completely stunned, staring blankly at Murong Fu's face.

"Fu-mei, you are so beautiful."

Murong Fu met her gaze and said affectionately.

Guo Fu lowered her head shyly.

But Murong Fu held her chin and looked into her eyes.

“Your Majesty, Lu Family Village is just ahead. Many heroes from the Southern Song Dynasty have gathered here. We must wipe them all out in one fell swoop.”

"They're just a bunch of江湖人 (jianghu people, martial arts practitioners) who dare to oppose the Mongol cavalry. They're courting death."

"Although the Songzhou court is weak, the Jianghu (martial arts world) of Songzhou should not be underestimated; there are still many skilled fighters there."

The group discussed loudly as their footsteps grew closer.

Guo Fu immediately snapped to attention and exclaimed anxiously, "Oh no! It's a Mongolian expert! Husband, we must go back and tell Father!"

Murong Fu was very annoyed. He was about to get to base when he was suddenly interrupted, which made him very unhappy!

Murong Fu's motto is: If someone makes me unhappy, I will repay them tenfold!

"It's alright, Fu'er, just watch your husband's performance."

Murong Fu gently patted Guo Fu's head and smiled as he looked in the direction of the conversation.

Several Mongolians appeared.

"Hey, there's a pair of wild mandarin ducks?"

A gaunt man with a pointed, thunder-like face, resembling a zombie, sneered.

"Kill the man, and I'll take the woman back for some fun."

The man next to him was tall, wearing a headscarf, holding a snake-shaped iron whip, and had a lewd smile on his face.

"Hehe, you've taken the woman, so I'll take the man. He's handsome, and I'm sure he'll taste good."

The third speaker had a high nose and deep-set eyes, curly hair and a yellow beard. Although he was a Hu (non-Han Chinese), he wore Hanfu (traditional Han clothing), a pearl around his neck, and was adorned with gold and silver, making him appear very wealthy.

"Don't waste time here, just kill them. We'll talk about everything after the dust settles. You handsome men and beautiful women will be there for us then."

The last person to speak was a high lama, a burly man with short hair and a thick beard, carrying five enormous wheels on his back, exuding a wild and untamed aura, and possessing a powerful physique.

"Interesting, perfect opportunity to catch them all at once."

Murong Fu crossed his arms and looked at the four people with a half-smile, as if he were looking at dead people.

The four main villains of The Return of the Condor Heroes—Xiao Xiangzi, Nemo Xing, Yin Kexi, and Jinlun Fawang—are all here.

"Boy, meeting us is your misfortune. Die!"

Xiao Xiangzi not only has a face like a zombie, but his martial arts are also somewhat similar to those of a zombie. He can leap more than ten meters in one bound, sticking his hands forward, his gray fingernails full of blood.
