Outside of Chong Ming Town
It was noon, but there was still an endless stream of pedestrians at the town gate.
Two young women stood under a willow tree at the town gate. Their faces were covered with a white veil, revealing only their clear eyes. Their fair hands were placed in front of their eyebrows as they looked around. A gust of wind blew, the white veil and the lake green gown fluttered.
After looking for a while, they saw an old carriage rushing towards them with two riders beside it. They quickly went over to greet the carriage.
Although they had not seen each other for a few years, Ping still recognized Liu at first glance.
"Sis!" Ping jumped off the horse excitedly and ran towards her with his Light-body Technique.
Liu looked at him from top to bottom. Seeing that he was alive and well, she let out a long sigh of relief. She patted her chest and said, "You scared me to death!"
"Hehe, I almost died this time. Luckily, Brother Jiang came to save me!" Ping squinted his eyes. "Sis, Brother Jiang is good at martial arts and he looks good. Is he going to be my brother-in-law?"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Liu glared at him. "He has a wife. He was just asked to help me. We have only met once. Don't talk nonsense!"
"I see …" Ping sighed disappointedly.
The carriage slowly approached them. Liu quickly called out, "Father, Mother."
The old couple in the car answered in a muffled voice, "Come in!"
Bi Liu's body was light. She used her small hands to support herself and jumped onto the carriage. She got into the carriage agilely. Her maid signaled the carriage to continue moving forward while she led the way in front.
Jiang Kuai walked in front. He showed his waist tag and entered the town without any obstacles.
Ping led the horse. He widened his eyes and looked around greedily. Every place made him excited.
The carriage finally came to an alley and stopped in front of a tall gate.
"Father, Mother, we are home." Liu lifted the curtain and got off the carriage.
Ping stared at the imposing gate. The rows of copper nails on the red lacquered gate were shining. "Sis, is this your house?"
"Yes." Liu helped Old Sun down the carriage. "Let's go. Let's go in. "
Jiang Kuai smiled. "Miss Liu, my mission is complete. I will leave first. Goodbye."
"Brother Jiang, come in and have some tea before you leave," Liu said.
Jiang Kuai gave a fist salute and smiled. "Let's call it a day. I'll trouble you another day. "
He cupped his fists towards the two elders and bade farewell.
Ping asked, "Brother Jiang, where can I find you?"
"You can look for me at the Public House." Jiang Kuai smiled. "We'll meet again another day!"
With that, he disappeared in front of everyone like a puff of smoke.
"Brother Jiang's Kung Fu is amazing!" Ping praised.
Liu smiled and helped the two elders to get off the carriage.
"Young Master Jiang is really a good person." Madame Sun smiled and said, "Little girl, don't you have any thoughts about him?"
"Mother, I told Little Brother that he has a wife. I'm just here to help my friend. I've only met him once and I'm not familiar with him. "Bi Liu said sternly," You don't have to worry about him. "
"Hmph!" Old Sun glared at her shamelessly. "Who can control you!"
Ping suddenly reacted and asked, "Sister, is Brother Jiang from the Yi Public House?"
"Mm." Liu supported Sun's mother as they walked inside.
The door opened, and four maids walked out. They stepped forward and saluted.
Old Sun stepped through the door and felt that his legs were not as agile as before. He could not walk.
It was the first time he saw such a big house with such a tall barrier. Lush green flowers and trees, rockery and spring water, it was a style that he had never seen before. It was an eye-opener for him.
His arrogance was inexplicably suppressed. He did not even try to show off his power.
Everyone went into a gazebo on a rockery to enjoy the scenery.
"This house is so grand!" Ping laughed excitedly. "Sister, how much did it cost?"
"One thousand two hundred taels," Liu said.
Ping immediately stuck out his tongue. "Good boy!"
Liu smiled. "What's your plan for the future?"
Ping said, "I want to try Wuwei Escort Agency!"
He had good Kung Fu and was an escort before. If he entered Wuwei Escort Agency, he would be able to live well.
"No way!" Old Sun stared at him. "If it wasn't for Young Master Jiang, you'd be dead. Why do you still want to go to an escort agency? You don't even remember! "
"Brother, are your injuries really serious this time?"
"Sigh … The doctor said that there was no hope. Luckily, Young Master Jiang came. Take a pill and you'll be cured immediately! "Sun's mother shook her head." Your father and I were scared to death. You have to thank him! "
"He's a Kung Fu practitioner!" Liu frowned and looked at Ping. "Brother, let me tell you something. No violence is allowed in the town. This is the Public House's rule. Don't cause trouble! "
"Isn't the Public House's rule too strict?" Ping was not convinced. "Is it really true that no violence is allowed in Chong Ming Town?"
"There are Public House Protectors patrolling. If you use violence, you'll be expelled from Chong Ming Town." Liu said. "Don't think that you'll be lucky. If you're really expelled, you'll never be able to enter the town again!"
"That's so cool!" Ping curled his lips and laughed. "Sister, brother Jiang is from the Public House. How did you get to know him?"
"Chief Chu's maid, Xue Ling from the Public House is learning martial arts from me. Thanks to her, I was able to save you in time."
"Sis, you owe him a big favor." Ping smiled and said, "I took the Spirit Blessing Pill, a unique medicine from the House of High Dukes. As long as you have one breath left, you can be saved. One pill, one life."
Liu nodded lightly, "Chief Chu has a high position and power. Why don't I plead with Xue Ling to let you enter the Public House?"
"Really?" Ping's eyes widened, "I can enter the Public House?"
Everyone on Chong Ming Road knew about the Yi Public House. There were countless people who wanted to enter the Public House, but it was as difficult as ascending to heaven.
Even though the people from the martial arts sects despised the House of High Dukes and scolded them for being the dogs of the imperial court, once they had the chance to enter the House of High Dukes, they would definitely fight for it with all their might!
Liu frowned and thought for a while, "Don't be too happy yet. It's hard to say whether it will succeed or not."
"Sis, my fate is in your hands!" Ping grabbed Liu's hand and said excitedly, "If I can really enter the Public House, then our family will prosper. You can stay at home with your parents and enjoy your life. I heard from Brother Jiang that once you enter the Public House, you won't have to worry about money anymore!"
Liu regretted bringing up this topic. She didn't expect her brother to want to enter the Public House so badly. If he failed, she would blame herself to death.
Old Sun looked at Liu suspiciously, "Stupid girl, can you really let Ping enter the Public House?"
"Father, I'll try." Liu said.
Old Sun scoffed, "You're just a singer. How can you be so shameless?"
Liu rolled her eyes at Old Sun helplessly.
Mother Sun quickly changed the topic. It was not easy for the family to reunite. She shouldn't make things difficult for them.
The next evening, when Liu returned home, Xue Ling, who was wearing a fluttering white robe, followed by her.
The backyard was dyed red by the setting sun.
Xue Ling sat in the pagoda. Her white robe was spotless and her face was flawless. Her expression was cold as she looked at Ping from head to toe.
Ping felt a little guilty under her cold gaze, and he felt uneasy all over.
Liu smiled, "Xue Ling, can he do it?"
"His cultivation level is too low!" Xue Ling frowned, "Didn't you say that his martial arts is not bad?"
"He should be okay?" Liu said.
Xue Ling shook her head, "Another one who likes to brag! He's far from it! "
Ping suddenly felt dejected.
He stood in front of Xue Ling. The cold air was like needles piercing his skin. Her martial arts was really amazing. If they fought, he might not even be able to take a hit. Xue Ling was about the same age as him, and she was a woman. It was really embarrassing!
Liu glared at Xue Ling.
Xue Ling's expression did not change. She still had a look of disdain on her face. She scoffed, "Someone like you wants to enter the Public House?"
Ping was embarrassed, "Can't I?"
"If you go in like this, you're really embarrassing me!" Xue Ling frowned.
Ping became more and more anxious. He looked at his sister for help.
Liu said, "Can't I do odd jobs?"
Xue Ling shook her head, "Look at him. He has never suffered. He doesn't know how to read people's eyes. Odd jobs are also a hindrance."
