Hearing this, the woman could no longer contain herself. She picked up the pickaxe in her hand and rushed forward!
"I'll fight you to the death! I'll dig you up with a pickaxe, you little beast!"
"I'll teach you to talk nonsense again!"
Zhao Dashun also raised the machete in his hand: "Come on then, who's afraid of you? I'm going to chop you to death, you old slut!"
No sooner had these words been spoken than the people from both villages raised their weapons!
Everyone is now blinded by anger, and no matter how much Kang Dachuan tries to stop them, it's useless!
His heart sank to the bottom. If the two villages really fought, it would be a matter of life and death!
Moreover, the goddess was right there and heard everything Zhao Dashun said! The goddess was also a woman, and he was really afraid that Lin Ru would turn around and leave in a fit of anger, ignoring all these people!
Lin Ru, seeing the chaotic scene before her, gave Wu Juan a wink, signaling her to step forward and separate the two groups. Unexpectedly, before Wu Juan could even make a move, a male voice containing internal strength suddenly rang in everyone's ears from the other side of the crowd!
"Stop! What kind of skill is it to bully a woman?"
"If you're so capable, go fight the enemy on the battlefield!"
"The river being dry is a natural disaster! How dare you, for your own selfish gain, throw dirty water at these women! You are a disgrace to men!"
Zhao Dashun's ears were ringing from the loud noise. He looked to his left in a rage, "Which blind bastard dares to talk to your Grandpa Zhao like that!"
"If you've got the guts, then step forward!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd on the left automatically made way for him, and the owner of the voice walked forward step by step!
The man was very tall and robust, with deep and bright eyes, a high nose bridge, and thin, upturned lips; he seemed quite handsome! Moreover, he exuded righteousness and appeared to be a good person!
Zhao Dashun was furious when he saw the man in front of him. He had been ugly since he was a child, and many people laughed at him behind his back. If he hadn't been so domineering, he would have been bullied to death by the people of Xinghua Village and wouldn't have the status he has now. Moreover, he had even tricked a wife from outside!
He detested handsome people the most, and even more so those who spouted platitudes about benevolence and morality! Moreover, this man of unknown origin dared to reprimand him in front of so many people; it was nothing short of blatant provocation!
He gripped the wood-chopping knife in his hand, ready to rush over and attack, but after taking only a few steps forward, he saw the man draw the sword from his waist. The long sword gleamed with a cold light, and it was obviously many times sharper than the wood-chopping knife in his hand!
Moreover, just by looking at the way this man drew his sword, you could tell that he was actually skilled in martial arts!
Zhao Dashun immediately became a little scared. He gripped the machete in his hand and pointed it at the man in front of him, "This is a matter between our two villages. What does it have to do with you, a person of unknown origin? I advise you not to meddle! Otherwise, the entire village will not let you off the hook."
"Don't think that just because you have a sword we won't dare to attack!"
The man said coldly, "I saw everything that happened. What do you mean by 'it's between your two villages'? It was clearly you who was bullying the woman over there!"
"And aren't you pretty good? How about we have a match?"
Although Zhao Dashun was known as a troublemaker in Xinghua Village, he still had his brains. He could tell that the man in front of him was quite capable, so he naturally wouldn't do something that would embarrass himself!
He was about to refuse when some villagers from Xinghua Village behind him said indignantly, "Zhao Dashun! What are you cowardly about! There are so many of us, are we afraid of him?"
"Exactly! He actually spoke up for those sluts! I bet he's someone's lover!"
"The people of Peach Blossom Village probably don't even know they've been cuckolded!"
"Yes! Otherwise, why would the men of Peach Blossom Village all cower like turtles and not speak up for their women!"
"They probably discovered it a long time ago!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the men of Xinghua Village burst into lewd laughter, while the men and women of Taohua Village turned red with anger!
This was the first time the man had heard anyone speak to him like that, and he gripped his sword tightly in anger! He looked utterly ashamed and furious!
Zhao Dashun, because of what the men in Xinghua Village said, inexplicably gained a sense of confidence!
He retorted tauntingly, "Come on! Let's have a go at it with the men of Xinghua Village!"
The man opposite was furious and charged forward with his long sword in hand!
In just a couple of moves, he beat Zhao Dashun to his knees and begged for mercy. He also punched the men who had been making lewd remarks to the ground. They clutched their wounds, rolled on the ground, howled in pain, and cursed loudly!
Wu Juan looked at Lin Ru beside her and said, "Miss, this person is obviously skilled in martial arts. Those commoners are no match for him. Should we step forward to stop him? If we don't stop him, someone might die!"
Although Kang Dachuan hated Zhao Dashun and his ilk, he was, after all, the village head and didn't want to see any of his villagers killed. So he turned to Lin Ru for help!
Lin Ru calmly shook her head, "Don't worry, this hero knows what he's doing!"
"These people have really gone too far. If they aren't taught a lesson, they might really rebel!"
"Let this hero teach them a lesson, let them know what it means to be outmatched!"
"What does it mean to respect women?"
Lin Ru's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, and the man, who was very skilled in martial arts and had excellent hearing and eyesight, naturally heard what she said!
So the man hit for a while longer, then stopped.
"This young lady is right! This is just a small lesson to teach you how to respect women! Stop using such filthy language all the time!"
"If there's a next time, don't blame me for being so polite!"
Kang Dachuan breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this. "Thank you for your help, hero. May I ask your name?"
The man replied, "I wouldn't call myself a hero. I was just helping someone in need!"
Kang Dachuan was genuinely grateful to the man in front of him. He pressed on, saying, "Hero, you flatter us. Without you, we wouldn't have been able to subdue those beasts like Zhao Dashun so quickly! Please tell us your name, hero! We will definitely thank you properly!"
The people of Peach Blossom Village chimed in, making the man a little embarrassed!
"My name is Xu Yixuan! I was just passing through and it was nothing, you don't need to worry about it!"
Xu Yixuan! Lin Ru repeated this name in her mind several times!
