Chapter 75: Coming out to greet your fiancé (1)
Cheng Hong Ling only realized something was wrong after she said that, and awkwardly shut her mouth.
Did she forget I used to be a man?
Qi Huang was very surprised in her heart. This main body has been treating herself less and less like an outsider lately. She didn’t know whether to be happy or worried. She was happy that she could have more “benefits” in the future, but worried that a simple main and clone relationship was not what she wanted.
In the following days, Cheng Hong Ling did not ask Qi Huang to test the Anemia Ointment again. After all, the next step would be to apply it to the torso, and she had to prepare herself mentally.
One day, a group of people appeared at the entrance of the HongHua Sect. The leader was Lü Yi, who had traveled from afar, accompanied by five followers. They were all guards from Lü Mansion, and their cultivation levels were high.
At first glance, Lü Yi didn’t bring many people this time. Fortunately, he wasn’t here to get engaged. At most, he was just here to observe the entrance and let Cheng Hong Ling test her bloodline.
“Who are you? This is a sacred place of an immortal sect. Idle people are not allowed in.”
Disciples of the HongHua Sect naturally went to stop them.
“Lü Family from Zhongzhou, go and tell Cheng Hong Ling to come out quickly to greet her fiancé.”
Lü Yi said imperiously.
“Zhongzhou? Which Zhongzhou? I haven’t heard of it.”
The few gatekeeping disciples looked at each other.
“Hmph! As expected, they are all country cultivators who have never seen the world,”
An old man with a wrinkled face next to Lü Yi scoffed. He was Uncle Ma, an old servant of Lü Dao, who had been in the Lü Family for over a hundred years, so he had a special status.
“What did you say?”
The few disciples were furious and reached for the treasured swords at their waists.
“Hmph! Presumptuous!”
Uncle Ma’s face showed contempt. His powerful spiritual sense emerged from his body, instantly making the few disciples stumble backward.
The disciples’ faces showed expressions of fear. One of them staggered and ran in to report.
Because the commotion caused by the Lü family was not small, it immediately attracted a lot of attention.
The ordinary person hiding in the back mountain also discovered it, and immediately reported the matter to the main body.
“What? People from the Lü family are here? And the leader is Lü Yi himself?”
Qi Huang was somewhat caught off guard. She never dreamed that the other party would actually come to her door.
“Yes, I don’t know what he wants to do? Is it revenge?”
Huang Ren speculated.
“What revenge? This Lü Yi has already carved my main body’s name on the Immortal Tablet. How can he possibly attack his future daughter-in-law?”
Qi Huang immediately denied it, and then said, “Don’t worry about what he wants to do for now. The most troublesome thing now is that group of women from Shuiyu Valley. What if they find out about this?”
As it turned out, Qi Huang’s worries were correct. More than half of the disciples of Shuiyu Valley died in that immortal might. So, who among the survivors had not lost their relatives?
“That person, I heard clearly! That group of people claim to be from the Lü family of Zhongzhou!”
“Lü family of Zhongzhou? Is that the Lü family that destroyed our Shuiyu Valley with immortal might?”
“It should be. The young man in the lead claims to be Cheng Hong Ling’s fiancé.”
“These beasts, we aren’t going to find them, but they’ve come to our doorstep! I’ll risk my life today to avenge my brother!”
“Count me in. They killed my father and mother. We can’t share the same sky.”
At the entrance of HongHua Sect, several surrounding Shuiyu Valley female disciples immediately flushed red, and were about to rush forward desperately.
“Wait, let’s go inform the Valley Master first. You going up like this is just asking for death.”
Fortunately, there were also some rational people, so they managed to stop the female disciples who wanted to take revenge.
Not long after, Wen Yunmei and Mu Ruo Ai learned of this and led the remaining high-level figures and disciples of the valley towards the main entrance, ready to demand an explanation.
Qi Huang saw everything and quickly informed Cheng Hong Ling, saying anxiously, “We should intervene, otherwise the people from Shuiyu Valley will be challenging a superior force.”
“We should indeed stop them, but not now!”
Cheng Hong Ling said after a moment of thought.
“When is that?”
Qi Huang asked anxiously.
“What? Worried about Mu Ruo Yi?”
Cheng Hong Ling asked in a sinister tone.
“Oh, it’s purely sympathy. After all, she fell into this situation because of us, and they are now guests of the HongHua Sect. If something happens to them, it will reflect badly on us.”
Qi Huang tried hard to explain.
“Heh heh…”
Cheng Hong Ling gave a noncommittal chuckle and said, “If you really care about her, then you can’t go now, because going now would be stopping them from taking revenge. Not only will they not thank you, but they will also hate you.”
“That’s true, but when would be a good time for us to go?”
Qi Huang asked thoughtfully.
“Of course, it’s when they are in trouble. That way, when we appear, we won’t be stopping them from taking revenge, but saving them.”
Cheng Hong Ling explained.
“That makes sense. You always think things through.”
Qi Huang praised sincerely.
“So? What should you call me?”
Cheng Hong Ling seized the opportunity to make a request.
“Eldest Sister!”
Qi Huang shouted without hesitation. She was increasingly impressed by this main body.
At this time, led by Wen Yunmei and her mother, the disciples of Shuiyu Valley had already surrounded the entrance of HongHua Sect.
“Haha, I didn’t expect HongHua Sect to be so enthusiastic. The welcome ceremony is too grand.”
A follower behind Lü Yi said triumphantly.
“Hmph, don’t you see whose status our young master is? HongHua Sect is definitely eager to climb the ladder, how dare they be negligent?”
Another follower flattered.
However, at this moment, Wen Yunmei and her mother walked over with displeased expressions.
Wen Yunmei and her mother walked over with displeased expressions.
“Are you people from the Lü family of Wei Yuan Empire in Zhongzhou?”
Wen Yunmei prepared to be polite before resorting to force.
“Yes, where is Cheng Hong Ling? Where is Qi Huang? Let them come out to greet this Young Master.”
Lü Yi commanded, not even looking at Wen Yunmei directly during the entire process.
“You are Lü Yi? Did you carve Cheng Hong Ling’s name on the Lü family’s Immortal Tablet?”
Wen Yunmei gritted her teeth and confirmed.
“That’s right, so what?”
Only then did Lü Yi shift his gaze to Wen Yunmei.
“Do you know that Cheng Hong Ling’s name was already carved by us on the tombstone of an ancestor of Shuiyu Valley?”
Wen Yunmei suppressed her anger.
“Shuiyu Valley? Are you people from Shuiyu Valley?”
Lü Yi frowned slightly.
“That’s right!”
Wen Yunmei admitted generously.
“Why would people from Shuiyu Valley appear in HongHua Sect?”
Lü Yi’s face darkened.
“Isn’t that thanks to that Immortal Tablet of your Lü family!”
Wen Yunmei gritted her teeth until they creaked.
“That’s right. If it weren’t for that Immortal Tablet of your Lü family destroying our Shuiyu Valley, how could we be here?”
Mu Ruo Yi could no longer tolerate it and accused.
Lü Yi looked at Mu Ruo Yi, a hint of surprise on his face, then lecherously said, “I really didn’t expect that in such a remote small country, besides Cheng Hong Ling, there’s also a stunner like you. State your name.”
“You answer my question first. Did you know our relationship with Cheng Hong Ling before you carved her name?”
Wen Yunmei took the conversation and questioned.
“Yes, so what?”
Lü Yi said casually.
“So what? Do you know how many disciples and ordinary people from Shuiyu Valley that immortal might killed?”
Mu Ruo Yi questioned excitedly.
“That was what you deserved. If you dare to covet the woman of my Lü Yi, even women have to pay the price.”
Lü Yi sneered.
“What kind of bandit logic is that? We had a marriage engagement with her first, you are the one who came later.”
Mu Ruo Yi argued.
“So what? The cultivation world respects the strong! If your Shuiyu Valley doesn’t pay a price, how can I, Lü Yi, marry a woman who has been married and still establish myself in the cultivation world?”
Lü Yi was unreasonably overbearing.
“It seems your Lü family doesn’t intend to take responsibility?”
Wen Yunmei’s lips trembled as she placed her hand on the hilt of her sword.
“Responsibility? Hmph, I only regret now why the immortal might didn’t wipe out your Shuiyu Valley completely. Then there wouldn’t be annoying flies buzzing in my ears.”
Lü Yi laughed mockingly.
“Then we’ll settle this with blood!”
Wen Yunmei drew her sword with a “swish” and charged at Lü Yi. Although she didn’t have much confidence in winning, as the Sect Leader, she had no other way out at this point.
