Xue Ran said, "If Miss Xia likes tea, I will have Qingyu prepare some good tea leaves."
Her naturally cute personality was adorable, but being too innocent wasn't a good thing either. Feng Guang sighed heavily, realizing that winning him over was a long and arduous task.
Just then, a hearty laugh suddenly came from the tree, "Hahahaha! Xue Ran, how come you're still so slow-witted!"
An old man in tattered clothes jumped down from the tree, pointed at the scenery, and laughed loudly, "You little brat, you have no shame!"
"Who do you think you are?!" Feng Guang said angrily, hands on his hips.
"Hmph, who I am? You'd be scared to death if I told you!"
"Oh? Then tell me, and see if you can scare this young lady to death?"
"I am Sun Yidao, the number one swordsman in the world, as recorded in the Sixty Years of History!" The old man put on a serious posture, waiting for the little girl to shout with admiration, but he only heard laughter.
"Hahaha, the most shameless person in the world!"
Sun Yidao jumped up and down angrily, "I've already said this name isn't good, but that all-knowing scholar insisted on writing 'First Sword' in the Chronicles of the Wind and Clouds. Little girl, you're not allowed to laugh!"
A smile appeared in Xue Ran's eyes as he said, "Miss Xia, Senior Sun's swordsmanship is indeed superb; he never encountered an opponent back then."
"So, he really is the most despicable person in the world?"
Sun Yidao said angrily, "That little girl is so annoying! Yueyue is much better! Xue Ran, where did you bring this girl from? Go and bring Yueyue back to me!"
“Senior Sun, Miss Xia is the daughter of the Lord of the Broken Sword Pavilion. You must not be rude.”
"The Sword-Breaking Tower? Pshaw, it's just a small weapons depot. Even her father has to respectfully call me senior."
Feng Guang also sneered, "Yes, but it still sounds better than your title of the world's number one swordsman."
"Hey, you naughty girl..."
"Senior," Xue Ran spoke up when she saw they were about to start arguing again, "Is there something you need today?"
"Yes, I need to talk to you! I almost forgot!" Sun Yidao couldn't care less about arguing with Feng Guang anymore. He hurriedly said, "Xue Ran, I want to ask you to treat someone."
“Senior, you know my rules.” He doesn’t leave the valley easily, nor does he rescue people easily.
“I know your rules, but I still want to ask you to help me save him.” Sun Yidao scratched his head. “Even if it costs me my old life, it doesn’t matter.”
Although Sun Yidao is unreliable, he rarely lowers himself to ask for favors because he possesses the arrogance of a master.
Xue Ran pondered, "I wonder which one could send a senior to ask me for help?"
"Tang Jiuge, grandson of Old Madam Tang from the Bashu Tang Clan."
Fengguang: "Nine lying down?"
Sun Yidao glared at her, "If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute."
"I'm saying... you'd risk your life for nine people, could he be your grandson?"
"What nonsense are you talking about! Lying down nine... ugh, I mean Tang Jiuge, he's Tang Fan's grandson. If he hears you say that, he'll crawl out of his grave and come after me for a fight!"
"Oh...so Grandma Tang was your first love?"
Sun Yidao's face turned red and then pale; he couldn't refute her.
"It really is your first love!" Feng Guang laughed heartily. She had only guessed casually, but Feng Guang had guessed correctly.
Sun Yidao couldn't bring himself to recount the old romantic escapades, fearing it would only make him a laughingstock. He turned to Xue Ran and said, "I owed the Tang Clan a debt in the past, which is why I've swallowed my pride and come to you for help when Tang Jiuge got into trouble. Sigh, I know you don't like getting involved in matters of the martial world, but this time I really can't think of anyone else who can help me."
