Murong Fu glanced sideways at the young girl.
Despite her seemingly dark complexion and freckled face, her fair neck and delicate skin clearly indicated that she was disguising herself.
The girl noticed Murong Fu's gaze and turned to look at him.
"Second Brother, that person seems to be staring at me."
"He doesn't have any internal energy aura; he's probably just an ordinary scholar. There's no need to worry about him."
"Oh~"
The girl was somewhat disappointed to hear that he was just an ordinary scholar, but thought to herself, 'Although he's an ordinary scholar, he's quite handsome.'
Confucius said, "Food and sex are human nature."
Appreciating beauty is an instinct, regardless of gender.
The girl couldn't help but glance at it a few more times.
Only when Murong Fu turned his head and their eyes met did she shyly look away.
This gaze was full of admiration and affection, something she had never felt from any other man.
Even her childhood sweetheart, the senior brother, rarely made eye contact with her, let alone openly expressed his love.
The girl's heart skipped a beat.
Murong Fu smiled slightly. His affectionate gaze was his ultimate weapon, always effective against these young girls just beginning to experience love. He could kill them with ease.
"Waiter, please deliver this to that young lady."
Murong Fu called over the waiter, took out a handkerchief, and handed it to him.
"Yes, sir."
The waiter immediately placed the handkerchief on the young woman's table, saying, "Heroine, this was sent by that young master."
"Okay, I understand."
The girl took the handkerchief and held it in her palm.
The waiter looked back several times, glancing at her with suspicion. He thought to himself, "These young masters these days are really strange. They actually took a fancy to a peasant girl. Although she seems to have martial arts skills, her rough, pockmarked face is really disgusting."
"Junior Sister, one should always be careful when traveling the martial world. How can you accept gifts from others so easily? What if they poison you?" the middle-aged man continued speaking.
The girl had already opened the handkerchief, inside which was a pure white and crystal-clear jade pendant.
The young girl was overjoyed. She played with the jade pendant, then looked at the handkerchief. It was embroidered with mandarin ducks and two lines of small characters: "In heaven, we wish to be birds flying wing to wing; on earth, we wish to be trees with intertwined branches."
Such a straightforward token of love left the girl stunned for a moment.
Suddenly, I felt someone appear in front of me.
Murong Fu held the folding fan in both hands, bowed, and said, "I am Murong Fu. May I ask your honorable name, young lady?"
"I, I, my name is Yue Lingshan."
The girl was clearly a little flustered.
The middle-aged man stood up and said, "I don't know where my daughter has offended you. Please don't take offense. We are just ordinary farmers and don't know the rules of the martial world."
Murong Fu bowed to the sky and said earnestly, "Uncle is joking. I am just an ordinary scholar, not a person of the martial arts world. My lifelong wish is to pass the imperial examination and serve the court."
"A poor scholar and a peasant dare to make a fool of themselves in front of us chivalrous heroes."
"Haha, a poor scholar and an ugly woman, I think they make a great match."
"Absolutely, absolutely."
Many martial arts figures in the lobby began to laugh.
Murong Fu raised an eyebrow, took out a silver note from his pocket, and said, "Although I am a scholar, I am quite wealthy. This is a ten-thousand-tael silver note. Whoever slaps this person a hundred times for me will have the silver note."
Upon hearing this, the entire inn fell silent.
Ten thousand taels of silver is enough to slap that person a hundred times, let alone kill him a hundred times!
Sudden.
The person at the next table immediately slapped the man across the face, causing him to stumble and fall to the ground.
Then the others reacted and surrounded him, slapping him one after another until his face was bruised and swollen, looking like a pig's head.
"Don't hit me! Kill that scholar, and the money is still yours."
The person who was hit cursed and swore.
"That's right!"
So they went after Murong Fu.
Yue Lingshan panicked and immediately drew her sword, holding it horizontally in front of her. "I am Yue Lingshan of the Huashan Sect. Anyone who dares to come closer, I will kill!"
The middle-aged man shook his head speechlessly. "You've been pretending for so long, and now you've exposed yourself for the sake of a scholar."
Seeing this, he had no choice but to step forward and say, "I am Lao Denuo, the second disciple of the Huashan Sect. I greet you all, and I ask that you give me some face."
When Laudenuo spoke, he released the pressure of the Innate Realm, making him stand out from the crowd in this inn.
A group of "heroes" at the Acquired Realm could only retreat timidly.
"So you were a disciple of the Huashan Sect. It was all a misunderstanding."
"Yes, yes, it's all a misunderstanding. The flood washed away the Dragon King Temple."
They had no choice but to give up.
Seeing that she had been exposed, Yue Lingshan immediately removed her human skin mask, revealing a fair and pretty face.
Murong Fu stared blankly, a foolish expression on his face, as if he were mesmerized by her.
Seeing this, Yue Lingshan was not angry at all. Instead, she chuckled and blushed slightly. "Silly boy, have you seen enough?"
"No, I can never get enough of her..." Murong Fu blurted out, then immediately realized his mistake and quickly corrected himself: "Ah, no, what I meant was, Miss Yue is as beautiful as a fairy, ethereal and stunning, and I couldn't help myself..."
"Hmph~ You have good taste, I'll forgive you this time."
Yue Lingshan proudly raised her head and puffed out her chest, her lips curving into a wide smile, looking incredibly cute.
Murong Fu said, "I was rude earlier, please forgive me, Miss Yue."
Yue Lingshan waved her hand and said, "Didn't I say I forgave you?"
"Not this time, but..."
Murong Fu looked at the jade pendant and handkerchief in her hand.
"I really like this, so I'll accept it. You don't want to take it back, do you?"
