A righteous young hero? But I am a demonic cultist.

Chapter 54 "Disciple" Accompany your master on a trip, and your master will bless you.

"Miss, Mr. Xiang is awake."

Ren Yingying quickly released Lan Fenghuang. "You said Uncle Xiang is awake?"

The maid nodded.

She ran quickly to the backyard.

Seeing that she had walked away, Lan Fenghuang plopped down next to Yue Yuan and asked, "Linchuan, when did you meet the Holy Maiden?"

Yue Yuan was taken aback. What did this little girl mean?

Seeing that he didn't speak, Lan Fenghuang tugged at his sleeve and shook it, pleading in a high-pitched voice, "Oh, just say something!"

"Can you be normal? The way you act all cute is really scary."

Lan Fenghuang's appearance is like a Sichuan-Chongqing Tyrannosaurus Rex opening its skull one second and then acting coquettishly in a high-pitched voice the next—it's incredibly awkward.

Seeing that he wasn't buying it, Lan Fenghuang returned to normal.

"Is the Holy Maiden really your master? Why do I feel like she's afraid of you?"

That goes without saying, he is Yue Yuan, nicknamed the Great White Dragon in the Waves, AKA18 Linchuan.

"Why do you ask this? We met in Hengyang City. She saw that I was exceptionally talented, so she took me as her apprentice."

Blue Phoenix pouted, "Alas, you were born before I was born, and I was born after you were old."

what?

"What are you lamenting? What do you mean, 'You're getting old'?"

"Don't you Han people always use poetry to express your feelings? I learned that from you Han people!"

"That's not how it's used. The meaning of that poem is, 'When I met you, you were in your prime, but I was already old and frail.' Is that what you meant?"

Lan Fenghuang was dumbfounded. So that's what the poem meant. She had thought it described regret.

"It's understandable that I, a Miao girl, don't understand, but tell me two examples, I want to describe regrets."

Yue Yuan looked at her and smiled, "The best thing is not to meet at all, so that we can avoid falling in love."

He knew exactly what Lan Fenghuang meant, but he had no intention of provoking the Miao woman. If you upset her one day, she might cast a love spell on you, and then you'd be in a panic.

If you come into contact with another woman, the Gu worm will attack your brain; who can stand that?

Seeing that Lan Fenghuang was still diligently memorizing the poem, Yue Yuan quickly slipped out of the room and headed towards the backyard.

In the backyard, Xiang Wentian leaned against the headboard.

Ren Yingying sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Xiang Wentian with concern, but Xiang Wentian not only did not feel pain, but also had a smile on his face.

"Don't worry, Holy Maiden, I'll be fine after resting for a couple of days."

"How can I not worry? Now, Uncle Xiang is the only old man left in the cult; everyone else has been persecuted by Yang Lianting."

"Haha, they won't be able to keep up this for long. I've already found out where the cult leader is."

The cult leader Xiang Wentian mentioned was not Dongfang Bubai but Ren Woxing. After a series of deductions and investigations, Xiang Wentian had roughly confirmed the location.

What he didn't know was that Yue Yuan had already told Ren Yingying about Ren Woxing, but now that they had no help, they couldn't go.

"Uncle Xiang, I know where my father is. Dongfang Bubai has imprisoned him at the bottom of West Lake and left a few people on the shore to build a manor to guard him. We don't have enough manpower, so we can't go there for the time being."

"I knew I was right." Xiang Wentian sat up excitedly, only to wince in pain.

Ren Yingying quickly helped him lie down. "Why are you so agitated? Father has been locked up for so long, a couple more days won't make a difference. You should recover from your injuries first so you can contribute when things get moving."

"Haha, then I'll recover from my injuries first. You don't need to stay here anymore, you don't need to stay with this old man like me."

"You're not old at all, you're still young." She stood up and tucked the blanket around Xiang Wentian. "Then Uncle Xiang, please rest first, I'll head out now."

As soon as she came out of Xiang Wentian's room, she saw Yue Yuan sitting in the backyard.

Yue Yuan beckoned to her, and she walked directly to sit down next to him.

"Now that this matter is settled, I'm going back."

"You're leaving?" Ren Yingying was shocked. She stood up abruptly. "Aren't you coming with me to save my father?"

"Why should I go with you to rescue Ren Woxing?" He shrugged. "He's your father, not mine. Besides, I really don't think it's a good thing that he's out here."

"We...we've all been like that, and you're telling me...you're Chen Shimei (a notorious figure in Chinese folklore known for abandoning his wife)."

"We're just like firearms and fire extinguishers, don't act like we're old friends."

Ren Yingying gritted her teeth inwardly. This bastard is truly heartless.

However, if morality is not enough, then let me put it another way: I want to see if you can stop me.

Thinking of this, a seductive look immediately appeared on her face, and she sat directly in Yue Yuan's lap.

"Brother Linchuan, are you really so heartless as to leave me alone to face the Divine Sect's encirclement and suppression? Swords have no eyes; what if your two precious children get hurt..."

As she spoke, she pulled up her collar, and the glimpse of snow-white skin made him squint.

"Don't do that, it's broad daylight, it's not good if others see."

Ren Yingying's lips curled up.

That damn man, he said that, but his eyes never left his face, and his body language was quite honest.

Since that's the case, she decided to push the issue a bit further, "Good brother, will you stay with me?"

Heaven above, it's not that Yue Yuan doesn't uphold his principles, but rather that these principles are now in her hands.

"It depends on your performance. If you satisfy me..."

Ren Yingying rolled over and sat directly in his lap. "My good disciple, your master is a little tired. Take me to rest."

Okay, okay, is this how you play it?

He picked up Ren Yingying and headed straight for their bedroom.

The door closed, and Yue Yuan pressed her head down.

.......

Time flew by and night fell.

The courtyard fell silent, but outside, several groups of men in black, carrying torches, surrounded the residence. The leader of the groups was Bao Dachu, an elder of the Divine Cult.

Bao Dachu was a direct descendant of Dongfang Bubai. He didn't care whether the person inside was Ren Woxing's daughter or Ren Woxing himself; he only recognized Dongfang Bubai.

"Are you sure Xiang Wentian is inside?"

The disciple he was questioning bowed and replied, "Absolutely true."

"Those idiots during the day couldn't even take down such a big house. Don't they know how to use fire? Pass on my order: pour oil inside and fire three rockets at once."

"But the Holy Maiden is inside..."

"Hmph, I have no place for the Holy Maiden, only the Eastern Cult Leader in my eyes. How come you're not even obeying my orders?"

"Your subordinate dares not, your subordinate will go and prepare immediately."

As the order was carried out, the entire Maka compound was doused with kerosene.

"Pass on my order: Fire!"

The archers, upon command, unleashed a volley of fire.

The rocket ignited the oil, and a raging fire broke out in the courtyard.

Yue Yuan was still fast asleep when he smelled something burning and immediately woke up. Seeing flames shooting into the sky outside, he didn't care about anything else. He wrapped Ren Yingying in a sheet, picked her up, and rushed through the roof.

"Brother Linchuan, what's wrong?"

Yue Yuan slapped her hard on the big white bun, "Stop being so horny, don't you even know what the situation is like?"

Before he could finish speaking, a burst of rockets was fired at him.

He was carrying someone, so he could only run to one side as fast as he could, pushing his lightness skill to the limit.

After he ran away, Lan Fenghuang and Yu Renyan also rushed out of the roof.

"Uncle Xiang is still inside, we need to go and rescue him."

Yue Yuan ignored her and jumped out of the encirclement, running away.

"Yue Yuan, did you hear me? I'm going to save Uncle Xiang."

"Your uncle is a lucky man, he'll definitely be fine."

Seeing that no one was following behind, he stopped, put Ren Yingying on the ground, and took a breather.

He finally understood why Cao Cao suffered a crushing defeat at Wancheng: beauty is a curse!
