At this moment, Xiao Yuhan on the stage stared at the Azure Water Pearl in Jiang Ruoning's hand. He seemed to have thought of something and immediately flew down to Jiang Ruoning's side. "Miss Jiang, Mr. Bai, I am moved by your performance. Since the Azure Water Pearl has become an obstacle for you, why not give it to me? You can then travel the world together and not concern yourselves with the affairs of the martial world."
Bai Yao followed at this moment and said with a smile, "That's right! Sister, my master can help you hold off the enemy!"
Jiang Ruoning glanced at Bai Yuanzhou, seemingly asking a question, but Bai Yuanzhou said, "Why don't we give this pearl to you, sir? It is fate that we met, and it is my blessing to have gained your favor. As for the trouble caused by the Azure Water Pearl, let's not keep it!"
Xiao Yuhan took the Azure Water Pearl, and at this moment the two young men had already started fighting. Their strengths were almost equal, and for a time they were evenly matched. When Yang Yunsui saw that Bai Yuanzhou was about to take Jiang Ruoning away, he immediately sent out the left and right protectors of the Demon Sect behind him, "Stop them! I said I want both the Azure Water Pearl and Jiang Ruoning!"
Upon hearing this, two guards nearby immediately charged towards Jiang Ruoning and her companion. Xiao Yuhan, thinking that he had at least received a bribe from them, asked, "Miss Jiang, are you sure you want to go with this person? He is Bai Yuanzhou, the Ghost Doctor of the Demonic Sect. If you are really determined to go with him, I will protect you from them!"
The girl in green turned to look at Bai Yuanzhou. She was certain that he was her soulmate, and immediately said, "My wish in this life is to meet someone who understands me, so I have no regrets. Please help me stop them, sir. I will not thank you for your kindness. This Azure Pearl is my gift of gratitude!"
Xiao Yuhan seemed to be deep in thought. In fact, he was happy to see lovers become a couple. Although it was only a brief encounter and a fleeting connection, he could understand Jiang Ruoning's feelings. She had finally met the person she had been waiting for, and at this moment, she naturally wouldn't let go.
Xiao Yuhan's only worry was that Bai Yuanzhou was originally from the Demonic Sect and his background was unknown. If Jiang Ruoning were to meet the wrong person, she would have wasted her feelings.
However, upon further reflection, since he had already revealed Bai Yuanzhou's true identity to Jiang Ruoning, and she was still willing to make this choice, Xiao Yuhan would naturally grant her wish. He immediately said, "Alright! Today, I, Xiao Yuhan, will also be carefree for once!"
The best thing in the world is that I have waited for you for many years, and you have been looking for me for many years. Finally, we meet on this day, and you happen to be walking towards me.
Xiao Yuhan smiled helplessly. Just as he finished speaking, the two elders of the Demon Sect who were originally preparing to attack exchanged a glance, seemingly surprised by the name Xiao Yuhan.
Two against one, Xiao Yuhan seemed to exert no effort at all. He struck out with both palms, directly sending the two Demon Sect elders flying. A moment later, Junmo Sword was drawn, and he coldly looked at the crowd in front of him, "Have you ever experienced divine punishment?"
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning shattered the roof of Qinhuai Tower and struck the scene with terrifying force. Everyone stopped fighting, and Yang Yunsui was especially astonished. However, he was quick to assess the situation and immediately stopped the two Demon Sect envoys behind him who were about to attack. "So you are Elder Xiao of the Heavenly Sword Sect. I was blind to your greatness before. Please forgive me, senior! If you want the Azure Water Pearl, take it. I will not bother you any longer!"
At this moment, Han Qianzhi glanced at Xiao Yuhan and respectfully bowed, saying, "Junior Han Qianzhi greets Elder Xiao!"
Xiao Yuhan waved his hand and stared at Yang Yunsui, saying, "I didn't want to make a move, but since you've started today, I'll just consider it a chance to stretch my muscles. Yang Yunsui, you insulted my disciple earlier, do you think I'll let you off today?"
The young man in black frowned, then smiled contemptuously: "Elder Xiao, I'm only letting you off the hook because you're a senior. Do you really think I'm afraid of you?"
Xiao Yuhan frowned slightly, not because of Yang Yunsui, but because the beggar had suddenly appeared in front of Yang Yunsui.
"Oh? Brother Han, what does this mean?"
The drunken beggar staggered toward Xiao Yuhan, swaying as if he could barely stand. "Master Xiao, how about you give me some face and let him go?"
"What if I don't want to?" Xiao Yuhan asked.
"Then I'll be your opponent!" The beggar smashed the wine jar and smiled slightly.
Xiao Yuhan also found it somewhat ridiculous, "We were friends just a moment ago, and now you want to be my opponent?"
The beggar didn't take it seriously and continued, "Master Xiao, I am a member of the Demonic Sect. This brat's father treated me well back then, so today I'll repay that old man's favor. Would you be willing to grant my request, Master Xiao?"
Xiao Yuhan seemed to be deep in thought, but he wasn't afraid to fight Han Xiong. After all, Han Xiong was no match for him at the moment. So after thinking for a moment, he said, "Alright, I'll give you face. Anyway, I've got the Azure Water Pearl. You know what I care about most right now. I'm not in the mood to cause trouble for this kid. But let this kid pay for the losses at Qinhuai Tower before he leaves!"
The beggar turned and glanced at Yang Yunsui, his meaning clear. Yang Yunsui then took out a silver note and placed it on the table, before bowing to the beggar. "Thank you, senior! You must be Han Xiong, the Sword Demon from back then? Would you be willing to leave with me?"
Although Yang Yunsui was unwilling, he knew that even if all of them combined, they were no match for Xiao Yuhan. Moreover, he recognized the beggar and knew that if even Sword Demon Han Xiong treated Xiao Yuhan this way, they would naturally lose the fight. Therefore, he made a decisive decision to leave. However, since he had finally met Han Xiong, he still had some intention of trying to win him over. After all, the Sword Demon had contributed a lot to the Demon Sect's prosperity in the past.
But the beggar had no intention of returning to the Demon Sect. He immediately said, "Get lost, kid. This is me repaying your father's favor. If I want to go back to the Demon Sect, I will naturally come to you. You don't need to beg me!"
Yang Yunsui seemed to be deep in thought, then bowed to the beggar, "The gates of the Demonic Sect are always open to Uncle Han, you can come anytime!"
Xiao Yuhan kept his word and didn't make things difficult for them, because at this moment he was more concerned about the white-haired woman he had seen earlier.
What Han Xiong said involved demonic disciples, so even if he was lying, it was probably half true and half false, since the matter of demonic disciples is not something ordinary people can know.
Whatever the woman's purpose in appearing here, he couldn't feel at ease.
Han Xiong said that the Azure Pearl was very important to that woman. Xiao Yuhan wasn't sure if this was true, but at least he should be on guard for now.
Even now, he still felt something was wrong, though he couldn't quite put his finger on it. So he could only try to conserve his strength to face any possible situation.
