Chapter 32 It Seems Like an Old Friend (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
"What makes you say that, brother... you've misunderstood me."

The scholar in the blue robe blushed, seemingly distressed by being misunderstood and humiliated.

He raised his right hand to his forehead, and a gleaming blue blade emerged from his sleeve.

call out……

The glint of the blade blended into the wind like a shadow.

It had already slashed three inches in front of Lu Wubing's throat.

So fast it's like a phantom.

However, Lu Wubing was even faster than him.

Clang…

The sword light was like a rainbow.

A bright white light flashed from his waist, silently passing under the table and piercing three inches below the blue-robed scholar's lower abdomen.

"hiss!"

It sounded like the sound of a knife.

It also seems to be a sword's cry...

Lu Wubing sat upright and motionless.

The scholar in blue stopped slashing with his sword, unable to strike any further.

Its body was like a colorful butterfly, swept up by the wind and flew backwards for seven feet.

It leaped into the air and out of the shop before letting out a shrill scream.

Everyone could see it clearly.

Blood was gushing from his groin.

A suspicious lump of meat fell out.

"So cruel."

The diners around all gasped in shock.

Not only were they shocked by the speed and agility of the two men's swords, but they were also stunned by the fact that just a moment ago they were laughing and chatting, seemingly like close brothers, and the next moment they were facing each other in a life-or-death struggle.

If I were in that situation, I probably wouldn't even have time to react.

They either died by the blade or were pierced by the sword.

"Is it ruthless? I think it's a real pity that this sword didn't kill Lin Qiuyan."

Some people nearby felt that the sword strike had not been fully successful, which was a bit of a pity.

"It's Blood Butterfly Lin Qiuyan, it's that lecherous thief."

After the initial shock, some knowledgeable people immediately recognized the blue-robed scholar's identity.

Perhaps you don't recognize their face.

However, people in the martial arts world had all heard of the famous flower thief's signature skills.

I recognized him immediately upon seeing him.

"That last strike, slashing against the wind, so fast it was invisible, must have been the signature sword technique of the Dongyi Miyamoto lineage, the 'Wind-Facing Slash.' I heard that this lecherous thief was kidnapped and sold to the East China Sea fleet in his youth, where he suffered endless humiliation. Later, he killed his master and fled, his nature drastically changed..."

"It's true that the disciples of Spirit Butterfly Valley were murdered. I heard from the elders in the clan that this person was extremely perverted and couldn't stand the sight of beautiful women."

Once he sets his sights on someone, he'll definitely try every means to get what he wants. His earlier invitation must mean he's eyeing that female knight-errant.

"So, the pockmarked woman's repeated rebukes to him can be considered quite bold."

Someone sighed from the side.

"What nonsense! The pockmarked woman was just protecting herself."

Rumor has it that this thief's twisted nature lies in the fact that the more fiercely he is insulted, the more amused he becomes... and he won't immediately strike.

"Yes, yes, the young women and wives who fall into his hands, once they beg for mercy out of fear, suffer endless humiliation and die a horrific death. That's the origin of the nickname 'Blood Butterfly'..."

Perhaps it was out of righteous indignation, or perhaps it was because blood was dripping from the hem of Lin Qiuyan's long robe.

The diners were eager to see what would happen, and didn't mind making things worse.

They all talked at once and revealed this person's past.

"Who is that young man? His sword strike is even faster than the [Wind-Facing Slash] by half a step."

"It resembles the Ziyang Sect's [Emerging Sun], and also the Zhenwu Sect's [Hidden Sword Style]... Of course, judging from the way he drew his sword and turned it into a rainbow, the Tianxing Sect's [White Rainbow Piercing the Sun] is the most likely."

However, I have only one question: why did that young swordsman choose to stab Lin Qiuyan in her most vulnerable spot? Could it be that he recognized her identity?

The scholar in blue robes had an extremely good appearance; if you didn't know him, you really wouldn't guess he was a lecherous thief. Therefore, this choice of sword seemed somewhat sinister and would damage the reputation of a disciple of a major sect.

"Old Lin has exceptional eyesight and has seen Fang Bo, but he rarely fights with others himself, so he naturally didn't notice. Lin Qiuyan's lightness skill is extremely extraordinary. If the two of them attack at the same time while sitting, the young man might be able to use the opponent's force to launch him into the air, thus losing the initiative."

"indeed so."

Recalling what had just happened, Lin Qiuyan seemed to be propelled by the wind from the sword, and her whole body flew up.

His quick reflexes and agile movements were still astonishing afterward.

This is while still sitting still.

If the two stand facing each other and move nimbly, it's hard to say who will get hurt.

……

"I am certain that I have not revealed the slightest flaw, so why were you prepared beforehand and attacked first?"

Blood Butterfly stared intently into Lu Wubing's eyes.

His face subtly revealed a ferocious and menacing expression.

He stood on one foot on the branches and leaves of the jujube tree in front of the house, floating up and down.

It seemed that the castration injury he had just suffered had no effect on him whatsoever.

But Lu Wubing knew that was not the case.

The other person is in a lot of pain. They're just very good at enduring it.

The character for "patience" has a knife above it; he must have wanted to kill himself.

Lu Wubing could even sense the overwhelming hatred in the other party's heart.

But so what?
In a race for survival, whoever is faster will have the last laugh.

"You're using the Butterfly Valley Lightness Skill, 'Butterfly Dance Across a Thousand Miles,' right? Very graceful movement, and your swordsmanship is also quite good..." Lu Wubing said with a faint smile.

"Compared to your lightness skill and swordsmanship, your acting skills are nothing."

He pointed at the pockmarked girl, a mocking expression on his face, and said coldly, "You keep calling her 'wife,' but I've never seen a decent woman whose arms are broken."

A chorus of soft exclamations of sudden realization rippled through the crowd.

"I see."

Blood Butterfly Lin Qiuyan's fierce and irritable eyes widened slightly in surprise: "Couldn't it be a fall that caused an injury, making it difficult for him to walk?"

"Of course, this alone is not enough to conclude that you have a problem."

However, this girl had clearly spoken maliciously and insulted my senior sister and me for no reason, yet her eyes were extremely clear and bright, without the slightest bit of malice.

As the old saying goes, "A righteous eye leads to a righteous heart, and a righteous heart leads to righteous spirit..." Her righteous rebuke was certainly not intended to harm anyone, but rather to save them.

Sometimes, what you see on the surface is not necessarily the truth.

The person who criticizes you the harshest is probably the one who truly cares about you.

In his previous life, Lu Wubing had wandered and struggled to survive... He had witnessed countless acts of deceit and treachery, and seen the coldness and warmth of human relationships.

He simply ignored the pockmarked girl's gentle, harmless insults.

Instead of feeling angry, I felt admiration.

What kind of sentiment is it?
Even while he was being kidnapped and controlled by a lecherous thief, he still had the mind to save people.

They can also use psychological tactics to target a lecher's past and mental illnesses, preventing him from acting immediately and thus allowing them to plan for the future.

Why doesn't she just tell others the truth?

One reason is that even if I tell people, they might not believe me.

Secondly, there may have been painful lessons learned before...

Once the truth is out in the open, Blood Butterfly will act ruthlessly.

When that guy said he would "kill two chicks," he probably didn't mean killing chickens, but rather killing people.

It's a veiled threat.

"Very good. I will never forget your kindness today. Next time, I hope you will be just as vigilant and stay hidden in the Tianxing Sect forever."

not good.

The other party actually recognized [White Rainbow Piercing the Sun] and even guessed their identities.

Lu Wubing and Ouyang Lan both realized something was wrong.

[Fangcunbu] operates at full power.

The moment he took his first step, he closed the distance by three zhang.

The blood butterfly has already taken flight.

Take the second step...

The blue figure had already moved through the air like a phantom, lightly touching another poplar tree before flying away like a fluttering butterfly.

Lu Wubing stopped his pursuit and shook his head.

It must be said that the opponent's internal strength cultivation far surpasses that of himself.

With the enhancement applied to lightness skill, even those of the same level would be impossible to catch up with.

Moreover, this "Butterfly Dance Across a Thousand Miles" lightness technique is both light and fast, allowing for rapid movement through the air and effortless turns.

When it comes to convenience and speed in traveling, it surpasses even the "square step" (a type of walking device)...

If the other party doesn't want to fight, there's nothing you can do.

The reason I talked so much earlier was to provoke the opponent's anger and lure them into attacking, so that I could use my swift sword to injure or even kill them.

Unfortunately, the Blood Butterfly was a little too cautious.

He showed no lingering affection for the girl with the pockmarked face, discarding her without hesitation.

There was no intention to seek revenge on the spot.

Very difficult.

"Meow..."

Before anyone knew it, the cat had crawled out of the pockmarked girl's arms, carrying a very familiar-looking object in its mouth.

It was a half-jade pendant, about two fingers wide, warm and translucent.

"what?"

Lu Wubing touched his pocket and took out half a jade pendant, looking utterly bewildered.

……

"Senior Sister Xuanyi."

He saw the half-piece of jade in Lu Wubing's hand.
