Chapter 21 The Girl in Black

late at night

Burning spiritual breath is poured into Dantian. After filling to the limit, it explodes all over the body.

Opening his red pupils, Ye Guhong looked down at his hands and felt an obvious sense of muscle tension and strength expansion. At this moment, Ye Guhong knew that his strength had improved further.

Seventh level spiritual disciple!

But Ye Guhong was not very happy.

Su Lan is gone

Moreover, the hexagram of "the separation of mandarin ducks" is really unlucky.

Ye Guhong speculated that what will affect him and Ye Sulan the most is tomorrow's selection competition. If he cannot stand out and join the Jueying Sect tomorrow, he will naturally be separated from Ye Sulan for a long time. By then, it will be hard to say what will happen.

Got it

This hexagram must not be allowed to come true. There must be some way to break it! I want to break the hang, but today’s three hangs are used up. I can only wait until tomorrow morning to continue.

But by then, will it still be too late?

Whoosh, a purple shadow flashed outside the window

Because the bright moon reflected the sky, it was bright outside but dark inside, so even though it was only a momentary scene, Ye Guhong knew that he was definitely not dazzled.

Night vision does not come for nothing

With a light jump, Ye Guhong pushed open the window door and looked directly to the left. He saw that the purple shadow had jumped from the short wall next to it and flew out of the Iron Crocodile Gang's mansion. With Ye Guhong's eyesight, it was still just a blur.

I vaguely saw a purple shadow

"Is there someone watching me and trying to cause trouble for me tomorrow?"

At this moment, Ye Guhong was walking step by step, feeling like everything was trying to make life difficult for him.

"No matter what, nothing can go wrong!"

Thinking of this, he followed the shadow without any concern for danger.

Chased out from the Iron Crocodile Gang and passed through several streets

There was no one on the street. Under the bright moonlit sky, the purple shadow disappeared and appeared, making Ye Guhong unable to catch up, but he could not lose him.

Walking to a quite secluded street, Ye Guhong saw the purple shadow flashing around the corner, and he ran over, but when he turned the corner, a narrow light suddenly appeared on the ground.

That's the light reflected by the moonlight shining on something that can reflect light.

Ye Guhong could tell almost instantly that it was a dagger.

Someone deliberately lured me here and wanted to sneak attack me

Ye Guhong secretly sneered. He kept moving his feet, but took off his coat with a flick of his hand.

When he came to the corner, Ye Guhong deliberately made loud footsteps, then raised his hand and threw the clothes out.

Chi!

The dagger stood out and broke through the clothes, revealing a slender arm.

Ye Guhong had been preparing for a long time. His hands were in the shape of claws, and he stretched out silently, tightly clasping the man's wrist with his five fingers and pouring hot spiritual energy into the other person's body, but he did not get much spiritual energy to resist.

"Ah!" The voice screamed with a hint of sadness. It was delicate and pleasant, and matched the slender arms. The person who wanted to sneak attack Ye Guhong should be a woman.

Ye Guhong's spirit breath couldn't help but loosen a little. He twisted around and used a grappling technique. While twisting her arm, he pushed her shoulders and pressed her against the wall.

"Let go! You are shameless!"

The woman screamed and tried to stretch her legs to kick back, but she didn't have much strength anymore and struggled for a while, but it was all to no avail.

Ye Guhong rolled his eyes in anger: "You lured me out and wanted to sneak attack me, but instead you scolded me for being shameless. Are you being unreasonable?"

Hearing Ye Guhong's voice, the woman suddenly said in surprise: "Huh? So you're not... That's because I found the wrong person. Why don't you let go first?"

There was a bit of coquettishness and blame in his tone.

Judging from her slim but not too tall voice, and her tender and pleasant voice, she must be only fifteen or sixteen years old.

Ye Guhong felt that this woman was of average strength and he should be able to easily subdue her and snatch the dagger in her hand, and then let her go.

The woman turned around and leaned against the wall, rubbing her wrist that was pinched by Ye Guhong. Her eyes exposed under the mask glared at Ye Guhong with dissatisfaction: "Huh, when I saw you today, I thought you were a good person. I didn't expect you to be the same."

, only bullies weak women.”

Ye Guhong had actually guessed that she was the woman in black who was fighting two shirtless men alone in the wilderness outside the pier today.

"I didn't do anything to you, why do you say I bullied you?" Ye Guhong showed a simple and silly expression and said calmly.

The woman's pupils wrinkled slightly. Seeing Ye Guhong's stupid look, she angrily stretched out her red and swollen right hand: "Look, wasn't this pinched by you?"

Ye Guhong also stretched out his right hand. Although the area pinched by Nian Zhen had long since healed, there were still a few faint marks left on the skin: "You pinched me too."

The woman was stunned, wondering if she had indeed hurt him when she struggled just now? After thinking about it carefully, she realized that she had attacked the wrong person in a sneak attack, which caused the other person to fight back. After all, she was wrong in the first place.

Sighing slightly: "I'm sorry, I just wanted to kill Wei Yongfei, but I didn't expect that it would involve you."

As he said that, he stepped back two or three steps, as if he was about to leave.

Ye Guhong had seen her Qinggong skills and knew that he would never be able to catch up with her. He was so anxious that he yelled: "Hey, you tore my clothes and left just like that?"

Sure enough, the girl thought the same thing as Ye Guhong and turned around: "Then what are you going to do? I don't have any money to compensate you."

Ye Guhong didn't know how to do anything else. He was a first-rate expert in pretending to be stupid. He showed a sad expression on his face and said with a slight sob in his voice: "My mother made this dress by herself. It has only been worn for a few days and it is already torn."

It looks so fake, it almost looks real, I'm going to cry

"Okay, okay, why did you cry so quickly? Your eyes are still so red. Can someone help you patch them up?"

"I will let you mend it only if it looks good, otherwise I won't give it to you." Ye Guhong held the clothes in his arms and regarded them as treasures.

This made the woman even more embarrassed. As if comforting a child, she said softly: "I often help Master sew clothes. Don't worry. Why don't you watch me mend them? If there's anything that doesn't look right, just tell me."

Seeing how this innocent girl could treat him like this, Ye Guhong couldn't bear to lie to her. However, the fact that she threatened to kill Wei Yongfei made Ye Guhong feel very strange, so he wanted to take the opportunity to make some excuses.

come out

He apologized secretly and followed the woman in black into the secluded alley.

The two came to a small courtyard, and the woman in black gently opened the door.

Ye Guhong asked in confusion: "You want to steal something?"

"Nonsense, this is where people live. Have you ever seen someone steal your own things? You fool," the girl said angrily.

"I've never seen anyone steal anything from my own home." Ye Guhong shrugged, "But I've never seen anyone sneak around even when they return to their own home."

There are three or four houses in this yard. The girl took Ye Guhong to an independent room on the right side of the yard and said softly: "Master is resting. I don't want to disturb him."

There was no light in the room, but Ye Guhong could clearly see the layout of the room.

A small bed with a thin cup decorated with plain flowers. There is a tea table in the room with two chairs against the wall. There is a large cabinet on the other side. There is nothing else.

The woman came to the table, turned on the fire, lit the candlestick, poured a glass of water and handed it to Ye Guhong. Then she pointed to the chair next to her and said, "You sit down first, and I will help you mend your clothes."

As he said that, he also took off the mask on his head and the black cloth wrapping his head.

Ye Guhong took the water cup and handed her the clothes in his hand. When he looked up and saw her face, Ye Guhong's already red eyes lit up even more.
