"This..." This is a bit difficult.
"What? Weren't you acting all fearless just now? Why are you so afraid of death now?" Cai'er smiled and whispered to Su Chen, "Young Mistress?"
Su Chen felt a chill run down her spine when she heard her call her "Young Mistress".
Just as Su Chen was facing a life-or-death situation, a person suddenly descended from the sky, wielding a large sword and angrily shouting, "Hu Ningcai!"
Cai'er barely avoided the blade, but a strand of her hair was severed in two by the blade.
"Tsk tsk tsk, what a fine knife! It can cut a hair in two!" It might even be as sharp as Yang Zhi's knife in Water Margin, capable of cutting through copper and chopping iron without dulling!
Su Chen felt that she had finally seen the world today.
But... what happened to the farming/development story the system promised? Where's the farming/development? Isn't this supposed to be martial arts?
"Young mistress, you just stay here and behave yourself!"
Su Chen nodded hastily, thinking that once she had appeased this sickly girl, she could find a chance to run away later.
Will fate listen to her? Will the opportunities in this world be on her side?
The answer is: No.
The moment Cai'er finished speaking, she snapped Su Chen's leg, breaking it.
Su Chen couldn't hold back her sobs and burst into tears: "Damn system! I'm going to report you! Waaaaaah..."
Fortunately, everyone around her was focused on the epic battle between the two masters and had no time to listen to what she was saying, otherwise they would all be wondering what the "system" was.
Among the bandits Cai'er brought, a burly man with ruddy hair standing at the front watched for a while and couldn't help but nudge the person next to him with his elbow, "Hey, do you think our second boss can beat the first boss?"
The man next to him replied impatiently, "That's nonsense. Isn't Second Boss Big Boss's lover? Besides, Second Boss is as beautiful as a flower, wouldn't Big Boss go easy on her?"
An older man in the back shook his head. "I don't think so. The boss is probably aiming for vital points with every strike. He's going for the kill!"
"Maybe the eldest brother wants to test the second brother's recent improvement in martial arts."
A group of people were engrossed in their discussion when a thin, small boy suddenly emerged from behind the crowd and timidly raised his hand. "Brothers, who are the eldest and second eldest bosses?" The town's residents, who were secretly peeking out from their homes, nodded repeatedly when they heard the boy's question.
They've been wanting to ask this for ages!
Hong Ran, the burly bandit, enthusiastically explained, "You're obviously new here. Look, that guy with the knife, the one who came out shouting 'Hu Ning Cai' as soon as he appeared, that's our boss."
He then pointed to Hu Ningcai, who had a slight advantage, and said, "Look again, the one holding the Emei dagger, the one who was pinching the young mistress of the Qian family just now, is our second eldest brother."
One of the bandits, who used to live in the town, wondered, "Why did she pinch the young mistress of the Qian family?"
"This..." The burly man with red hair was speechless. He scratched his head and thought for a moment but couldn't figure it out. He simply waved his hand and said, "Oh, it must be when the second eldest was working as a maid for the Qian family. That young mistress took advantage of her status as the master to bully our second eldest."
"Then...why did your eldest son go to the Qian family to be a maid? Wasn't he being treated well and given good food?"
"Well... the boss must have his reasons. Didn't Boss Wuhen leave so that Hu Ningcai could take the top position in the Red Eyebrows?"
