Shui Dai shouted, "Release Sheng'er, or I'll make sure your head rolls off the table!"
"Is that so? Then I'll have her head roll first."
With a smile, the Blood Blade Ancestor placed his blood-red scimitar against Shui Sheng's neck.
The scimitar exuded a chilling aura, piercing Shui Sheng's delicate skin and drawing out traces of blood.
"don't want!"
Shui Dai was anxious.
"Fourth brother, don't be impulsive!"
Hua Tiegan quickly grabbed Shui Dai and advised, "If you act impulsively, not only will you fail to save your niece, but we may all die here!"
"Second brother is right, we need to calm down!"
"Fourth brother, listen to your second brother!"
The other two brothers also offered their advice.
Shui Dai calmed down slightly and stared coldly at the Blood Blade Ancestor.
Blood Blade Ancestor sniffed Shui Sheng's ear and a lewd smile appeared on his face. "She smells so good. Such a woman, to play with her first, then kill her, and finally eat her, would be wonderful."
"Hey... don't kill people, killing is wrong."
At this moment, the dull voice attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone looked over, and it was Di Yun who spoke.
"Are you teaching this old ancestor how to do things?"
Blood Blade Ancestor's gaze was cold as he stared at Di Yun, wanting to kill him with a single blow, but he held back when he thought of Di Yun's loyalty.
"No, no..." Di Yun shrank back and waved his hands repeatedly, "I just think... fighting and killing is not good."
Blood Blade Ancestor suddenly raised an eyebrow and sneered, "You've taken a fancy to this girl?"
"Don't worry, I'll let you have your fun after I'm done."
Blood Blade Ancestor gave him a knowing look.
That's not what I meant...
"Say another word, and I, your ancestor, will kill you!"
Blood Blade Ancestor interrupted him impatiently.
Di Yun wore a bitter face. He must have been having a run of bad luck lately. Nothing was going right, and he had faced life-or-death crises several times. The martial world was dangerous, and he longed to go home.
Shui Dai said urgently, "Blood Blade Old Demon, release Sheng'er, and we will leave now, how about it?"
"Release her?" Blood Blade Ancestor sneered. "If you release her, how will I leave?"
"Get out of my way, all of you! Or I'll kill her! Don't worry, I won't waste her body; I'll make the most of it!"
Blood Blade Ancestor's eyes were sinister, like a vulture eyeing its prey.
Luo Hua and Liu Shui exchanged a glance, both hesitant, for a slight misstep could lead to Shui Sheng's death.
"You're not leaving, huh?"
Blood Blade Ancestor's patience was running out, and he was about to make his move.
Suddenly, a silent burst of energy shot out.
Blood Blade Ancestor was startled. He didn't care about Shui Sheng and rolled on the spot, narrowly avoiding the danger.
Who is this master?
Blood Blade Ancestor was both shocked and furious. He shouted a question, and without waiting for an answer, he picked up Di Yun and flew away as a red afterimage.
Clearly, this question is not for the sake of an answer, but only to mislead the enemy and buy time.
"Thank you for your help, senior!"
Luo Hua Liu Shui bowed gracefully towards the direction of the energy. Everyone was very curious about who the newcomer was. He had scared away the Blood Saber Ancestor with just a finger strike. Could it be the One-Finger Divine Skill of the Dali Duan Clan?
Shui Dai rushed to Shui Sheng's side and tried to release her acupoints, but after several attempts, he was unable to do so.
How could this be?
"This is the Sunflower Acupuncture Technique, which cannot be countered by ordinary methods."
Murong Fu's figure appeared, as if walking down from the sky, and he spoke softly.
"Sunflower Acupuncture Technique?"
The group was taken aback, having never heard of this technique before.
Murong Fu explained, "The so-called Sunflower Acupuncture Technique is a method created by combining the Sunflower Manual of the Sun Moon Sect with the Orchid Acupuncture Technique of Peach Blossom Island in the East China Sea. It is extremely exquisite."
Hua Tiegan stroked his mustache and exclaimed in surprise, "Hiss... Is the Sun Moon Divine Cult the demonic cult of Mingzhou? Blood Blade Ancestor is actually related to the demonic cult? No wonder it's so strange!"
Shui Dai recognized Murong Fu and asked hesitantly, "Are you Murong Nan?"
"Indeed, it is I."
Murong Fu nodded slightly and glanced at Shui Sheng.
This woman was not exceptionally beautiful, but her face was as lovely as a blooming flower, charming and captivating.
"So it's Young Master Murong!"
Everyone was overjoyed. A person's reputation precedes them, and hearing the name Nan Murong put their minds at ease.
Murong Fu said, "I have seen this technique in the Ming Cult's martial arts world, but how to release the acupoints requires further study."
Shui Dai said confidently, "Young Master Murong, please proceed with confidence. We trust you."
Shui Sheng rolled her big eyes, as if to say, "I believe you too."
Murong Fu looked around and said, "In that case, please excuse us."
"Avoidance? Why is that?"
Shui Dai was taken aback.
Hua Tiegan chuckled and said, "Fourth brother, to unravel acupoints, one must naturally study acupoints. Although you are Sheng'er's father, this is not quite appropriate."
Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly understood.
But Shui Dai hesitated and said, "If that's the case, what about Sheng'er's innocence...?"
Shui Sheng was so anxious that her eyes darted around. She was still a virgin. Although she had been betrothed to her cousin since childhood, the two had always treated each other with respect. Now that her cousin had passed away, she only wanted to remain a widow for him.
Hua Tiegan's eyes darted around, and he chuckled, "I've heard that Young Master Murong is magnanimous, with three wives and four concubines, which is the envy of many. I wonder if Young Master Murong would be interested in my niece?"
"Ah, this..." Murong Fu hesitated. "I have countless wives and concubines, so I don't mind having one more. But if I do, I'm afraid it will harm Miss Shui Sheng. That's not right."
Upon hearing that Murong Fu had countless wives and concubines, and that he only intended to make Shui Sheng a concubine, Shui Dai objected, "Young Master Murong, how can my daughter be a concubine..."
Hua Tiegan interrupted again, expressing his disappointment:
"Fourth brother! You're so foolish!"
"Didn't you hear what Young Master Murong said? He has countless wives and concubines; ordinary women are simply not worthy of his attention!"
"What is the status of Young Master Murong? If it weren't for this fortunate encounter, although Shui Sheng is quite beautiful, she would be far inferior to Young Master Murong. Today is an excellent opportunity; I think we should finalize the engagement and choose a date for the wedding ceremony."
Shui Dai was stunned by what Hua Tiegan said; it seemed to make sense.
