Chapter 84.1 Big Brother Has a Crush! (1)
Luo Fu’s martial arts was obviously much stronger than the others, not only having Du Xiao Li’s embroidery needle slapped aside, his speed in charging towards Du Xiao Li wasn’t slow either. In a blink of an eye, he appeared before Du Xiao Li, his palm about to hit her.
At a glance, Yin Yue Xuan could tell, the force of Luo Fu’s palm was very strong. If Du Xiao Li were to get hit, even if she doesn’t die, she would still be severely injured. Just as he was planning to help out, he instead saw Du Xiao Li just nimbly move, her figure seemingly just swaying as she dodged Luo Fu’s attack, making him stop in his tracks again.
Luo Fu didn’t expect that Du Xiao Li would avoid his palm strike, however he very quickly turned around again, continuing to attack Du Xiao Li.
This time, Du Xiao Li didn’t dodge, instead charging forward head on as she stretched out her palm, firmly matching with his palm. Soon after, the two were pushed back again by the force.
Luo Fu made a deep imprint on the ground, while Du Xiao Li borrowed the tree behind her to stop herself. Her foot hooked onto the tree trunk as she leapt up, landing on the tree branch, facing face to face with Luo Fu.
Luo Fu’s hand was slightly trembling, and his gaze towards Du Xiao Li turned malevolent, seemingly no longer planning on sparing her life.
Du Xiao Li also could tell what Luo Fu’s intentions were. Her foot tapped against the tree branch as she charged towards Luo Fu once more, intending to strike first to win the upper hand.
Yin Yue Xuan watched Du Xiao Li, knowing that her choice to strike first right now was correct, just don’t know whether or not it will be countered by Luo Fu. After all, his martial arts weren’t weak.
Du Xiao Li was in the air, while Luo Fu was on the ground. The two exchanged ten some moves, yet all were unable to have the other subdued. When their palms met again, Du Xiao Li was forced back onto the tree branch.
“Pff—-”
Ying Ge pulled out her sword. The people around her were all taken care of by her.
“Peng—–”
Xia Yuan used the white silk and had the last person in front of her wrapped up and thrown up towards a tree. That person, after colliding with the tree, passed out before there were even able to cry out in pain.
Thus, aside from Luo Fu, everyone else have all been knocked out or killed.
Seeing the situation like this, Luo Fu just knew that today’s matter was already a failure. He glanced to Du Xiao Li. It was all because the information he got never said that Du Xiao Li and them knew martial arts, thus leading to this current situation. Even alone he was unable to capture Du Xiao Li, and now, with two more servant girls helping her, his odds of succeeding were even smaller. After pondering the situation over and over again, he decided to give up on Du Xiao Li. It’s better to leave first.
Du Xiao Li didn’t expect that he would choose to escape. One failure to notice, and he was already flying away. But just as he was about to get away, he got kicked back again, heavily falling onto the ground.
Next, a slender figure landed, and seeing the perfectly intact Du Xiao Li on top the tree, his anger finally curbed a little.
“Big brother Yi? How come you’re here?” Du Xiao Li looked to Han Ming Yi, as she flew down and landed next to him.
“Are you alright?” Han Ming Yi asked.
“I’m fine.” Du Xiao Li shook her head and replied.
At this time, Leng Yi and a few others flew over too. Seeing the corpses on the ground, they prepared to go have the ones that were still alive tied up. But just as they found the live ones, fresh black blood flowed out from the enemies mouths. All of them had ingested the poison hidden in their mouths and committed suicide!
Du Xiao Li looked to Luo Fu. He’d also ingested poison the moment he saw Han Ming Yi. With this, everyone on the other side had died off, not a single one left alive.
“De, de, de—–” The sound of horse hooves came through. Du Xiao Li looked over, seeing an extremely anxious Du Yun Han on horseback.
“Father also came?” Du Xiao Li knew that if she didn’t go to Sui Yuan, Han Ming Yi perhaps would come looking, but she didn’t expect that even Du Yun Han would come too!
“Daughter, are you hurt? Quickly let father have a look!” Du Yun Han came to Du Xiao Li’s side and jumped down from the horse, holding Du Xiao Li’s hand and looking left and right.
“Father, I’m fine.” Seeing Du Yun Han’s panicked look, Du Xiao Li consoled, and also stopped him from continuing to examine her.
“Are you really alright? What’s this blood here?” Du Yun Han saw the blood on Du Xiao Li’s sleeve and said with a worried look.
“This is those people’s blood, not mine.” Du Xiao Li pulled down her sleeve, her fair and tender arms not having the slightest injury. Seeing this, Du Yun Han finally relaxed.
“What happened here? Do you know who kidnapped you?” Du Yun Han asked.
“The one that kidnapped me was someone from Yan Luo Hall. However, Yin Yue Xuan didn’t say who their client was. I originally wanted to have them captured and then ask, but unexpectedly, they all died.” Du Xiao Li said.
Hearing Du Xiao Li say his name, Yin Yue Xuan saw the cold air around Han Ming Yi’s body and couldn’t help but shiver.
Getting remembered by him wasn’t a good thing! Although Han Ming Yi was very good-looking………
“Who?” Leng Yi suddenly looked towards the direction in which Yin Yue Xuan was hiding.
Having been discovered, Yin Yue Xuan didn’t hide anymore as he flew atop the nearby tree and looked to Du Xiao Li, shouting: “Miss Du, tomorrow, I will be at Feng Xue Lou on time and look forward to your visit! Farewell——-”
With that said, he quickly left this troublesome place.
Leng Yi had intended to chase after, but was stopped by Han Ming Yi. “No need to chase after, Yin Yue Xuan’s qinggong isn’t something you all can catch up to.”
“Yes, master.”
Leng Er and them went and searched each and every body. These people didn’t have anything on them, nothing capable of identifying them. They all looked to Han Ming Yi and shook their heads, expressing that there was nothing to gain.
Because the sky was gradually darkening, everyone decided to return first, leaving behind Leng Er and them to see if they can find any clues here.
Du Yun Han didn’t ride back on horseback either, sitting together with Du Xiao Li in the horse carriage, and immediately after Han Ming Yi also squeezed in, having Xia Yuan and Ying Ge squeezed out, who instead had to ride on horseback.
On the way back, Du Xiao Li and them also went and picked up Qiao Zhu who was still waiting atop a tree. Seeing Du Xiao Li, Qiao Zhu instantly started crying, saying she wanted to learn martial arts from Xia Yuan and them, so that in the future, she can also protect Du Xiao Li, and no longer be their burden.
Because Qiao Zhu didn’t know how to ride a horse, she shared a horse with Xia Yuan, and during the entire way back, she kept going on and on about letting Xia Yuan teach her martial arts when they return.
In the horse carriage, Du Xiao Li recounted what happened after she participated in Fu Ya Lan’s coming-of-age ceremony, having gotten hazily taken out of the capital by Yin Yue Xuan. And looking to Du Yun Han, she also had Du Ke Xin’s appearance hidden from him.
“This Yan Luo Hall have always refused jobs that relate to the imperial court. How come they came and kidnaped Xiao Li this time?” Du Yun Han asked, somewhat perplexed.
“Seemingly, Yan Luo Hall’s master owed them a favor.” Du Xiao Li wasn’t sure either. She previously had heard of Yan Luo Hall’s reputation before, but didn’t expect that they would encounter them this soon.
