The Dazzling New Star of the Heroes of the Martial World
Inside the dungeon of the Famous Sword Society, Xia Zhouyi and others surrounded the Masked Man who came to assassinate Duanmu Chong. Seeing the large number of people, the Masked Man coldly drew his sword and charged at the disciples of the Famous Sword Society.
Xia Zhouyi personally took action, intending to capture the Masked Man. He drew his saber and fiercely slashed at the Masked Man. The clash of blades and inner strength resulted in the Masked Man being pushed back several steps due to insufficient power. When the Masked Man retreated to the cell where Duanmu Chong was held, he triggered a mechanism again, causing two long ropes to spring out from the walls on either side. The Masked Man was caught off guard and had his feet ensnared by the ropes, rendering him immobile. Just as the Masked Man raised his sword to cut the ropes, the disciples of the Famous Sword Society rushed forward and placed their swords against his neck. One disciple immediately pulled away the black cloth covering the Masked Man's face, revealing that it was actually the heroine Zhu Yingtai.
Seeing this, Xia Zhouyi said, "What a surprise! It’s Miss Zhu. It seems I misunderstood you; you must have come to assassinate Duanmu Chong rather than to rescue him. Since that's the case, why don't we sit down and have a good talk? Someone, please escort Miss Zhu to my room."
The disciple replied, "As you command." Thus, they restrained Zhu Yingtai's abilities and brought her to Xia Zhouyi's room.
A moment later, Xia Zhouyi returned to his room and closed the door. Inside, there were only two people. Zhu Yingtai felt extremely anxious because she feared that Xia Zhouyi would act improperly. Zhu Yingtai asked, "What exactly do you want?"
Xia Zhouyi replied, "Miss Zhu, there's no need to be afraid. Although I, Xia Zhouyi, am not a paragon of virtue, I will not take advantage of your predicament. I won’t do anything to you for now. You must know about Shu Heng agreeing to marry me and then reneging on that promise; this has caused my Famous Sword Society to lose face in the Martial Arts Alliance. However, I won’t dwell on that too much. Right now, all I want is to marry a wife to carry on my family line. I remember when I made my proposal back then, you nodded in agreement; does that still count?"
Zhu Yingtai responded, "What happened then is in the past. You chose to make a deal with Shu Heng and rejected me; naturally, that is over. If you propose the same conditions now, I will not agree."
Xia Zhouyi asked, "Why is that?"
Zhu Yingtai answered, "I have thought it through clearly; a murderer who killed my fellow practitioner is not worthy of trading my happiness for."
Xia Zhouyi questioned in confusion, "Don’t you want revenge for Liang Shanbo?"
Zhu Yingtai said, "Of course I want revenge, but I cannot sacrifice my happiness for it. Xia Zhouyi, you are simply taking advantage of my situation."
Xia Zhouyi defended himself by saying, "Right now, I hold the power over Duanmu Chong's fate; how he is dealt with is naturally up to me. I'm merely using this power as leverage for negotiation; how can that be considered taking advantage? My terms remain unchanged: if you agree to marry me, Duanmu Chong's life will be yours."
Zhu Yingtai solemnly said: "It's impossible. I don't like you. We have no feelings at all. It's impossible for me to marry you." Xia Zhouyi said: "Emotions can be cultivated slowly. Besides, I am a dedicated person, not like your ex-husband Liang Shanbo who flirts with women everywhere. After getting married, I can promise you that you will be the one to decide everything in your family. One destination, I am Famous Sword Society President, and I still have a certain status in the Martial Arts Alliance. By then, you, Mrs. President, will be even more shining and will be respected by everyone. Think about it carefully." Zhu Yingtai: "You have to be reasonable, but no amount of fame and wealth can control your feelings. How can I fall in love with you, a man over fifty years old, with a gray beard? What about you? Besides, there are so many young talents in Martial Arts Alliance that can give me the fame and fortune you want, why should I choose you?" Xia Zhouyi: "You are good, but that is what you can do. With free choice, now you fall into my hands. If you don't agree to it, I'm afraid you will never leave the door of Famous Sword Society in your life. You have no friends in Martial Arts Alliance. No one. No one will know that you are here, and no one will come to save you. If you want to spend the rest of your miserable life in a dungeon with your enemy Duanmu Chong, you should marry me and be a good President wife. Take your time. Think about it carefully. I will come back to hear your answer in three days. Come, take Miss Zhu to the dungeon and lock her in the cell next to Duanmu Chong." After receiving the order, the gatekeeper took Zhu Yingtai to him. In the dungeon, before putting Zhu Yingtai into the cell, the guards searched Zhu Yingtai's body and took away all the weapons on his body. Since the cells are only separated by thick wooden pillars, Zhu Yingtai can see Duanmu Chong next door through the gaps between the wooden pillars. I saw Duanmu Chong sitting there with his eyes closed, motionless. Zhu Yingtai was furious and cursed, but Duanmu Chong turned a deaf ear and made no move. After a while, Zhu Yingtai cursed until his mouth went dry and he was panting. Zhu Yingtai I thought: Am I going to have to face this heinous sinner every time in the future? In this case, within ten days, I won’t be able to hold it in any longer. But I couldn't bear to be married to a fat, old man. However, it is much better to face an old man you don't like than an ugly enemy. This matter needs to be considered in detail. Outside the Dreaming Medical Pavilion, the sound of two Famous Sworders discussing each other spread into the ward. Shu Heng pushed the paralyzed Qiu Yuxia outside and saw a fierce battle between Huangfu Mingmo and Yu Yunhai, while Yuehua next to him was watching the battle silently. Qiu Yuxia asked: "Friend, what is going on? Why did you fight with Yu Yunhai?" Huangfu Mingmo said: "This person is determined to get back the face of the last failure. I am not a person who is afraid of fighting, so I have no choice but to accept his challenge.” Since Yu Yunhai has Wuming Feng in hand, Huangfu Mingmo also shows the style of a peerless Swordsman and takes on the challenge with bare hands. Both sides used their hands as swords, and while the sword energy burst out, dozens of rounds had passed, and the outcome was still unclear. Just when Yu Yunhai was about to use his ultimate move, Yuehua stood in front of Yu Yunhai and said, "Is victory or defeat really so important? Your injury is just right, do you still want to get hurt?" Huangfu When Mingmo saw a woman intervening, he said: "Yu Yunhai, let's end the battle between you and me today. If there is a chance, we can decide the outcome again in the future." After saying this, Huangfu Mingmo walked towards Qiu Yuxia and then push it away from the scene. Qiu Yuxia: "Friend, Yu Yunhai is not weak in martial arts. You should try not to argue with him." When Huangfu Mingmo heard Qiu Yuxia, he thought it was a sign of his worried lover and encouraged him. I must have the courage to express my love to Qiu Yuxia again. Huangfu Mingmo stopped, walked towards Qiu Yuxia, grabbed Qiu Yuxia's hand with one hand, and said: "Friend, I am willing to take care of you all your life, will you please marry me?" Facing the sudden When the proposal came, Qiu Yuxia felt a little uneasy and said: "Now that I am a useless person, I will only become a burden to others. I can't bring trouble to you, my friend, let alone destroy your happiness, so I can't marry you. "
Huangfu Mingmo immediately said, "What does it matter about being entangled or not? I like you, you like me, we are mutually affectionate. We should be together for a lifetime. I will take good care of you, and I will make you happy."
Qiu Yuxia replied, "Friend, there's no need to continue. I will not agree to you."
Huangfu Mingmo was greatly disappointed and angrily asked, "Is it because of Nightmare Demon? That ruthless killer is already dead, do you still have him in your heart?"
Qiu Yuxia responded to make Huangfu Mingmo give up, "Yes, in my heart there will always be only Nightmare Demon, no one can replace his position, including you."
Huangfu Mingmo became even angrier and said, "The despicable Nightmare Demon, even in death he occupies a place in my friend's heart, truly detestable." After saying this, Inner Strength surged forth, causing dust to fly and energy to sweep across the scene, shrouding everything in smoke. Then Huangfu Mingmo suppressed his inner dissatisfaction and casually pushed Qiu Yuxia back into the hospital room.
Yuehua and Yu Yunhai exchanged glances, both remaining silent. At this moment, Shu Heng broke the silence, saying, "If you care for each other, express your feelings as soon as possible. Don't wait until something happens to regret it; I am a cautionary tale. You two should have a good talk."
Yu Yunhai, upon hearing this, still did not speak and turned to leave, their exchanged glances filled with deep emotion. Yuehua did not chase after him but instead watched Yu Yunhai leave with unwavering eyes.
Inside the dungeon of the Famous Sword Society, after careful consideration, Zhu Yingtai made a decision. After calling out to the guards in the dungeon a few times, she was brought to Xia Zhouyi's room. Xia Zhouyi asked, "Miss Zhu, I wonder why you are so eager to see me. Have you come to a conclusion?"
Zhu Yingtai replied, "Yes, I have decided to agree to your conditions. However, you must also agree to mine: after we marry, the authority over Duanmu Chong's disposal will belong to me. I will be in charge of the household. If your behavior is inappropriate, I reserve the right to dismiss you at any time, just as I did with Liang Shanbo at Confucius Academy."
Xia Zhouyi said, "I agree to everything you mentioned. So when shall we get married?"
Zhu Yingtai stated, "This time we don't need such extravagance for our wedding; we just need to invite a qualified notary."
Xia Zhouyi asked, "Oh? Who do you think would be qualified enough to serve as our notary?"
Zhu Yingtai replied, "At least one of these six people: Martial Arts Celebrity, Yi Zhangzhi, Murong Mulong, Huangfu Mingmo, Qiu Yuxia, or Yi Junsheng, or Murong Yaoxian.
Xia Zhouyi stroked his beard and said, "These six people are indeed all Martial Arts Celebrities. Yi Junsheng has recently become the focus of the martial world, infamous for his reputation, so it is not appropriate to invite him. Qiu Yuxia is already a disabled person, still recovering from injuries, and it is not suitable for her to travel. I have no relationship with Huangfu Mingmo, so it would not be easy to persuade him. Yi Zhangzhi was heavily injured before and cannot come now. Now only the Murong siblings are left; I wonder which one Miss Zhu wants to invite?"
Zhu Yingtai pondered for a moment and said, "Since we need a notary, they must have considerable ability. If either party fails to comply with the agreement later, the notary must punish the one who breaches the contract. I suggest inviting the Sword Saint; that way, I won't be afraid of you breaking the agreement."
Xia Zhouyi replied, "But inviting Murong Mulong is something I can probably manage, but having him supervise both parties and punish any breach of contract might be a bit difficult. Just getting him here is already a big favor; he can't possibly take care of our marriage afterward."
Zhu Yingtai acted coyly and said, "I don't care; you must invite him."
Xia Zhouyi helplessly said, "Alright, I'll give it a try. You can stay in the Guest Room for now. I'll have someone prepare for the wedding arrangements, and I will go meet Murong Mulong." With that, Xia Zhouyi left the room.
Hua Mulan, after receiving Yi Junsheng's divorce papers, sought Sima Qian at the Martial Arts Alliance, intending to try to be with him. However, fate can change in an instant; disaster struck as Demon Star Ke Chi Nian blocked her path and said, "Heroine, you are what I desire, hahaha!"
Tao Yuanliang, the owner of Drunken Red Mansion, came to Martial Bamboo Divine Domain to express his feelings to Murong Yaoxian. The reason Tao Yuanliang dared to make such a bold decision was that he believed Yi Zhangzhi was truly dead. Murong Yaoxian invited Tao Yuanliang to have tea and asked, "I wonder why Mr. Tao has come to visit recently?"
Tension filled the air. What tragic fate awaits Hua Mulan as she encounters Ke Chi Nian? How will Tao Yuanliang confess to Murong Yaoxian? What reaction will Yi Zhangzhi in the coffin have?
