Mu Ruorong raised his two swords in defiance and said, "Luo Da, don't even think about taking me away. I'm not as skilled as you, so I admit defeat. I'll give you the monster I hunted directly. I don't want anything else."
Luo Da looked at Mu Ruorong lustfully, but said, "Don't want it now? It's too late! Let's go!"
As he spoke, Luo Da stepped forward to pull Mu Ruorong away, but Li Xiuchen slammed the table and stood up, saying, "In broad daylight, in the open, you're planning to snatch someone away? Fellow Daoist, although Ten Thousand Beast Ridge doesn't have any strict rules, if everyone acted like you, who would dare to hunt there?"
When everyone heard this, they were also stunned.
Mu Ruorong also looked at Li Xiuchen in surprise. Li Xiuchen had remained calm, but he couldn't help but glance at Mu Ruorong's chest. Mu Ruorong's face darkened and she immediately turned away.
Li Xiuchen didn't notice Mu Ruorong's abnormality. He continued, "Today, I, Li Xiuchen, will never let you, the villains, take this girl away. If you want to take her away, you are going against me, Li Xiuchen!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xiuchen drew out his sword and took out a token at the same time.
Na Luo cursed, "Where did you come from, you ninth-level Qi Refining brat? Don't you have ears? This is our private matter, why do you have to interfere?"
Li Xiuchen raised the token and said coldly, "Just because I'm an inner disciple of Mount Taihua!"
There was an uproar in the inn.
Although Myriad Beast Ridge had no rules, if there were truly no bottom line, then this place would be ruined. Therefore, in the small towns outside Myriad Beast Ridge, all the major immortal cultivation sects in the world had established bases, and every year they would send disciples to supervise and oversee them.
Mount Taihua is naturally included in it.
For the casual cultivators present, Mount Taihua was a legendary immortal gate! It was said that only those who reached the Foundation Establishment stage at the age of thirty were eligible to become inner disciples. The elders there were at least at the Nascent Soul stage or above, with five Mahayana masters alone, and even the only person in the world to reach the Spiritual Transformation stage, Master Xuan Lingzi!
And everyone knows that the people of Taihua Mountain... have always been very protective of their own people.
Sweat could not help but fall from Luo Da's forehead. He said, "You are only at the ninth level of Qi Refining. How could you be an inner sect disciple of Mount Taihua?"
As soon as these words fell, Luo Er beside him said, "Brother, I heard that in addition to those who have reached the Foundation Establishment Stage or above, the inner disciples of Mount Taihua may also be elite disciples of the sect. As long as they have good talent, they can be admitted as an inner disciple as soon as they enter the sect."
Luo Da was still a little unconvinced, but Li Xiuchen arrogantly pointed his sword at Luo Da and said, "Don't show mercy to me. If you really want to take this girl away, then step over me!"
The inn was silent. Luo Jianqing leaned calmly against a wooden pillar, watching with a faint smile.
Luo Wu's face flushed red as he stared at Li Xiuchen. Li Xiuchen pointed his sword at Luo Wu and said, "Do you dare to fight?"
The next moment, Luo Wu rushed forward in anger, his blade transforming into a fierce tiger, pouncing on Li Xiuchen. Li Xiuchen wielded his long sword, forming hand seals with his hands, and chanted the sword formula: "The vast sky is dark, the vast ocean is a particle, the sun and moon are dark, this is the sword. The sword of the clear sun and the sky, go!"
A flash of white sword light rushed towards the tiger. Luo Wu screamed and fell backward, his chest covered in blood and flesh. Li Xiuchen calmly put away his sword and said in a pretentious manner, "But there are still people who want to fight!"
Luo Da and others looked at Li Xiuchen angrily, and finally their eyes fixed on the disciple token of Taihua Mountain. They left reluctantly.
Luo Jianqing took in the entire scene, and naturally saw Li Xiuchen's bleeding palm shattered by the sword energy. Li Xiuchen was merely holding on. He hadn't learned the "Nine Lotus Heart Record" in this life. Even if he could defeat those Foundation Establishment cultivators with limited resources with his ninth-level Qi Refining cultivation, it wouldn't be easy.
At this moment, Li Xiuchen walked towards Mu Ruorong and asked with concern, "Miss, are you okay?"
Mu Ruorong's face froze, and he forced a smile and said, "Nothing, thank you for your help, fellow Daoist."
Luo Jianqing smiled slightly upstairs: If you hide your obscene look better, I'm sure people will be fine.
Li Xiuchen secretly glanced at the plump breasts again and said, "Those people just now were too overbearing. If you run into them again, tell me my name. I think they won't come again."
Mu Ruorong nodded, neither agreeing nor refusing.
Luo Jianqing thought to himself: Should I report my name or that of Mount Taihua?
Li Xiuchen asked, "May I know your name, young lady?"
Mu Ruorong hesitated for a moment, then said, "Mu Ruorong."
Li Xiuchen smiled and said, "What a great name."
Mu Ruorong remained silent.
After Li Xiuchen said a few more words, he wanted to invite Mu Ruorong to eat with him. He subconsciously wanted to grab Mu Ruorong's hand, but Mu Ruorong dodged to the side and said, "Thank you for your help just now, fellow Taoist. I'll treat you to this meal. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
With that, Mu Ruorong turned and left. Li Xiuchen was immediately anxious: How could this be different from the agreed plot?! Shouldn't Mu Ruorong thank him for his help, have a meal with him, and then they parted ways. Then, two weeks later, he would rescue the injured Mu Ruorong in Wanshou Ridge, and the two of them would explore Wanshou Ridge together again?
"Friend Mu, why are you in such a hurry? Sit down and fill your stomach first!"
Li Xiuchen's hand subconsciously reached for Mu Ruorong's wrist, causing her eyes to darken and she took a step back. Li Xiuchen dismissed it as a coincidence, reaching out again to touch Mu Ruorong, his gesture completely casual, as if he'd already considered her his concubine. He even said, "Don't be so polite with me."
