After Mad Dragon was released from prison, I shocked the world!

That "ghost face" was very fast and moved in a strange way, always trying to sneak into dark corners.

Lin Li chased after him relentlessly, and the two of them, one in front of the other, quickly ran out of the area of ​​Tan Palace No. 1 and arrived at the roof of an abandoned villa next door.

Lin Li stopped as soon as he reached the rooftop.

Because at the other end of the roof, three or four men in black, wearing the same ghost-face masks, were attacking a girl.

The girl looked to be no more than eighteen or nineteen years old, dressed in a white training uniform, and holding a long sword in her hand.

Lin Li stood in the shadows and observed for a while, secretly surprised.

This young girl's swordsmanship already showed some signs of mastery, and her internal strength was surprisingly strong!

Such a young master is a rare sight in Jiangcheng.

Just then, one of the masked men made a hand gesture to his companion.

After feinting and forcing the girl back, the masked men didn't linger and turned to flee in the opposite direction, disappearing into the night in the blink of an eye.

Just as the girl was about to give chase, she saw Lin Li standing on the other side.

She clearly mistook Lin Li for an ordinary person who was frightened or someone who came to watch the spectacle.

"What are you looking at! Get lost if you don't want to die!"

The girl sheathed her sword, her eyebrows raised, and arrogantly shouted at Lin Li, "Wandering around in the middle of the night instead of sleeping, you've provoked something you shouldn't have. You won't even know how you died!"

Lin Li was about to ask about the situation, but upon hearing this, he immediately laughed.

This girl has quite a temper.

"Little girl, you've got quite the nerve."

Lin Li stepped out of the shadows and said calmly, "I haven't settled the score with that ghost face who was pretending to be a ghost on my window yet."

"But you, fighting on someone's rooftop in the middle of the night with a sword, have absolutely no manners?"

"Your window?"

The girl paused for a moment, looked Lin Li up and down, and said disdainfully, "So you're just a scaredy-cat."

"I'm acting on behalf of Heaven, slaying demons and monsters! What do you know?!"

Lin Li was so angry he laughed, crossing his arms and saying, "So what if I'm not leaving?"

"Not leaving?"

A hint of impatience flashed across the girl's face. "Then don't blame me for being impolite! I'll knock you out and throw you down so you won't get in my way!"

After saying that, she actually took action.

The girl lightly touched the ground with her toes, her figure as swift as a swallow, and the scabbard in her hand smashed straight towards Lin Li's shoulder.

If someone were hit by that, an ordinary person would at least break a bone.

"Ha, what a heartless little girl."

As Lin Li spoke, he directly pinched the scabbard between two fingers.

"Um?!"

The girl was startled, let out a delicate shout, abandoned her sword and turned to palm strike, aiming at Lin Li's chest.

"Let go!"

Lin Li frowned. This girl was too rough; she needed to be taught a lesson.

He unsheathed his sword and met the attack with a palm strike of his own.

boom!

The palms are clasped together.

The girl was thrown backward uncontrollably.

She managed to adjust her posture in mid-air, trying to land, but due to a loss of balance, she slipped and fell backward.

Seeing this, Lin Li instinctively reached out to pull her.

This pull had a significant effect; due to inertia, the two people collided.

Lin Li originally intended to grab the girl's arm, but in the chaos, his position shifted slightly, and unfortunately, he pressed down on a very soft spot.

The girl stared wide-eyed at Lin Li, her mind completely blank.

next second.

"ah--"

The girl shoved Lin Li away abruptly, clutching her chest and stepping aside, her once proud face now flushed red.

"You, you scoundrel! Shameless! Vulgar!"

She picked up the sword from the ground, her face contorted with shame and indignation, and said, "I'm going to kill you! I'll gouge out your eyes and chop off your hands!"

Lin Li looked at his palm with an embarrassed expression.

This is... such an accident!

He coughed lightly, trying to explain, "Um... would you believe me if I said I didn't mean it?"

The girl wouldn't listen to reason and raised her sword, ready to fight Lin Li to the death.

Just then, two figures suddenly darted up from below the villa and blocked her way.

They were two boys who looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing matching blue long gowns, with delicate features.

"Sister Yaojia! Stop!"

A boy stopped the outburst of a girl, his tone somewhat urgent.

Lin Li narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at the two suddenly appearing teenagers: "Who are you?"

The boy didn't answer the question, but instead said, "My great-grandmother wants to meet you."

……

On the tree-lined path outside Villa No. 1 of the Tan Palace, the two boys and the girl with the sword walked ahead, while Lin Li followed behind with his hands in his pockets.

Those guys wearing ghost masks had strange movements; they were definitely not ordinary江湖草莽 (jianghu caomang, meaning rough and unruly people).

These three young men in front of us have clearly received orthodox internal martial arts training.

The sudden appearance of such a group of people near his home was very unsettling.

"arrive."

Lin Li looked at the giant RV in front of him, and one of the boys gestured for him to enter.

Although his actions were relatively polite, his eyes revealed the arrogance unique to scions of wealthy families.

This is a heavily modified Scania motorhome; the massive front end alone exudes an aura of wealth.

Lin Li raised an eyebrow and stepped forward.

The interior of the RV was more spacious than I had imagined, with a Persian carpet on the floor and a faint sandalwood scent in the air.

In the center of the carriage was a set of genuine leather sofas, on which sat a middle-aged woman wearing a plain-colored cheongsam.

She looked to be no more than forty years old, with fair and firm skin. Although there were a few shallow fine lines at the corners of her eyes, she did not look old at all. Instead, she gained a touch of charm from the passage of time.

Behind her stood several young men in long robes, who were clearly skilled in martial arts.

"Great-Grandma!"

As soon as Ye Yaojia got into the car, her fierce and aggressive demeanor vanished instantly, and she immediately threw herself into the woman's arms to complain.

"That bastard! He just...he just bullied me!"

The woman gently patted the girl's back, looking at Lin Li with great interest.

That look didn't seem like he was looking at a lecher; instead, it carried a hint of inquiry, a touch of reminiscence, and a sense of something indescribable.

Lin Li felt a little uneasy under the woman's gaze.

But he didn't treat himself as an outsider. He went straight to the sofa opposite the woman and sat down. He picked up the purple clay teapot on the coffee table and poured himself a cup of tea.

"Tsk, good tea."

Lin Li took a sip, smacked his lips, and said with a half-smile, "Hey, auntie, sending a few juniors to lure me here in the middle of the night, shouldn't you at least introduce yourself first?"

"That's so rude, isn't it?"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the other people in the RV immediately turned sour.

The two young men in blue robes glared angrily, one of them shouting, "Insolence! How dare you be so disrespectful in front of Great-Grandma! Stand up now!"
