Chapter 42 - Saving Murong Fu
After obtaining the information he wanted, Ling Xiao bid farewell to Duan Zhengchun and the others and left.
Regarding their family matters, Ling Xiao was not the least bit interested in them, so there was nothing much to express. As long as they didn't do anything bad to Mu Wanqing, it would be fine.
Once they had returned to the secret inn, the awkward atmosphere between Duan Yu and Mu Wanqing had lightened somewhat. When they saw that Ling Xiao had returned, they all stood up to welcome him.
Qing'er, you should stay here to recuperate for the time being. Once your injuries have healed, you can get the Prince Duan to send someone to send you back, or even find Little Sister Zhong Ling and play around with you. I still have some things I need to take care of. Ling Xiao said as he looked at Mu Wanqing.
After all, this was not a joke. What could bring about a threat to Murong Fu was definitely not some kind of good person. Even with Yue Lao San and Yun Zhonghe by his side, Ling Xiao was still a little worried.
Mu Wanqing was also obedient, especially after knowing Ling Xiao's formidable strength. He was completely at ease with him.
"As for you, go with me. Be good-looking and studious. No one will look after you for the rest of your life." Ling Xiao glanced at Duan Yu and said indifferently.
After Duan Yu heard this, he nodded his head repeatedly.
After leaving the Imperial City, Ling Xiao brought Duan Yu to meet up with the two outside the city.
"Master, where are we going now?" Yue Lao San who could not sit still was the first to ask.
"Go to Shaowang Mountain and save someone." Ling Xiao said indifferently.
Hearing this name, the faces of both Yue Lao San and Yun Zhonghe changed. As old thugs who had committed evil deeds for so many years, they had heard of many places in the Jianghu.
Naturally, they had heard of this Younghouse Mountain as well.
"Master, that seems to be Shaolin Temple's territory. Why are we going there?" Yun Zhonghe asked carefully.
After Ling Xiao heard this, he rolled his eyes at the two of them and said: "If I say so, then so. What are you all spouting so much nonsense for, or have you all done anything to let down the Shaolin Temple?"
Hearing this, the two of them hurriedly shrunk their necks and shut their mouths obediently.
Seeing this scene, Ling Xiao said helplessly: "Really? Shaolin Temple and the group of bald people, are you going to cause trouble?"
"Master, that was a long time ago. At that time, he was still young, and was not afraid of anything, so he naturally caused a little trouble." Yue Lao San said somewhat embarrassedly.
"If it really is something that happened a long time ago, then what are you afraid of? With master here, can I kill all of you right now?" Ling Xiao was helpless towards these two former villains.
It seemed that these four great Evildoers did not mean anything bad. However, since they were accepted as disciples, it was naturally to take good care of them.
Because he did not know what Murong Fu had encountered at Shaowroom Mountain, Ling Xiao was extremely worried. As an important figure who could resolve the misunderstanding, Ling Xiao had to ensure Murong Fu's safety.
On the way to the Shaowang Mountain, Ling Xiao did not stop at all. The horses that were running had almost collapsed from exhaustion.
"Master, up ahead is the boundary of Shaowang Mountain." The Yue Lao San said, obviously he was familiar with this place, which meant that he had been here quite a few times.
"Are you familiar with this place?" Ling Xiao asked.
Yue Lao San scratched his head: "I'm fine, I used to come over often to play."
"Come and play? Are you sure you aren't here to cause trouble? " Ling Xiao rolled his eyes and said.
"This, how did Master know …" Yue Lao San lowered his head and muttered.
"Cut the crap. It's best if you know. Lead the way. We need to hurry up the mountain." Ling Xiao said.
Hearing that, the Yue Lao San nodded his head, he activated the lightness exercise and rushed up the mountain. Seeing that, Ling Xiao who was carried away followed him.
"Truly useless. They've only been riding their horses for more than two hours, and yet they've actually made a fool of themselves." Ling Xiao sighed helplessly.
Duan Yu, on the other hand, forcefully endured his desire to vomit, and spoke with difficulty: "Master, it's been too long …"
"Shut up, don't puke on me." Ling Xiao frowned.
Ling Xiao heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that there were four people staring at him head-on. It seemed that he had caught up to them in time.
It was unknown if it was because those four people were too nervous, but Ling Xiao and the others' arrival quickly alarmed them.
"Who are you?" One of the elderly man in cassock looked at Ling Xiao and the rest as he frowned and shouted.
From a distance, Yue Lao San and Yun Zhonghe quickly recognized those few people.
"It's actually Murong Fu and Old Man yellow-browed!" Yun Zhonghe frowned.
Hearing that, Ling Xiao knew that he did not find the wrong person.
"You two can watch from here. Master will handle this while I go forward and teach Duan Yu." With that, Ling Xiao walked over with a smile.
"Young child, whose family are you from? What are you doing here?" Seeing that Ling Xiao not only did not leave, but was instead coming towards them, the yellow brows immediately frowned.
"Yellow browed Grandmaster, this Ling Xiao is the newly appointed gang leader. He is here to take care of a matter regarding the Master Xuan Bei." Towards the esteemed monk of the Shaolin Temple, Ling Xiao was still rather polite, after all, the one who died was the Shaolin Temple.
Hearing that, Huang Mei's eyebrows rose even higher: "gang leader? How could this old man not know about such a huge matter? "
Ling Xiao knew that the other party was not willing to believe him, so he did not waste any more words.
Although the Beggar Gangs's position in the Jianghu was not that high, a dog smacking technique had an extremely strong might and only the old Jianghu knew of it. The reason why Ling Xiao was dancing around in front of Huang Mei and the others, was to make Huang Mei believe him.
"It really is a dog smacking technique. It seems like what you said is true. Could it be that Sect Master Qiao had met with some mishap?" Huang Mei frowned.
In regards to the Beggar Gangs, he was still very respectful, because under Qiao Feng's lead, the Beggar Gangs had done many things that were beneficial to the Jianghu.
Ling Xiao shook his head and said: "Senior Qiao Feng is well, but because he has been out running all year round, coupled with the fact that he himself is unable to save the world, he transferred this important position to me."
Hearing this, Yellowbrow could not help but laugh, "Little kid, you seem to be quite mature when you speak, but you can't help but make people laugh their heads off. Could it be that you have some heaven defying ability that dares to replace Sect Master Qiao?"
"Why didn't Sect Leader Qiao come?" also had a serious face, he was obviously very happy that the Beggar Gangs had sent someone, but he never expected that they would only send a little kid, hence he started to worry again. It had to be known, that today's opponents were all old bones, without some ability, they wouldn't be able to suppress them.
