Deep in the jungle, along the riverbank, beneath a willow tree, sat a woman of unparalleled beauty. Her dark hair clung to her skin as if she had just emerged from the water, and she wore a men's long robe.

The body that should have been trembling was not pale; instead, the woman's cheeks were rosy.

And she was clearly a fish that had fallen into the sea of ​​love.

The man treated her for snake venom.

I just don't know how much time has passed.

Only this woman is here; the heartless boy has vanished.

The woman rested for a moment, then got up and left.

The flattened green grass still grows stubbornly, refusing to yield, and the morning dew on the grass slowly drips down and disappears into the earth.

Inside the carriage, Yang Guo, now dressed in dry clothes, dared not move.

Guo Fu and Huang Rong stared at Yang Guo, listening to his nonsense.

What woman fell into the water? What antidote for snake venom? You smell like a woman. Do they think we're fools?

Especially since Huang Rong was looking at him with a hostile expression, trying to put on airs like Aunt Guo and make him tell the truth, but she was also afraid that Guo Fu would become suspicious, and she was also afraid that the young man would dislike this status.

Fortunately, she has a good daughter.

Guo Fu glared at him: "What was that woman's name? Where did she live? What kind of snake venom did she get? How did you cure it? Was it just a simple application of herbal medicine? And where's your outer garment? Why did you take so long to get back?"

Huang Rong secretly praised her daughter, saying, "She's truly a good daughter. Mother loves you."

Although she felt sorry for Yang Guo being all wet, she was still angry that he didn't tell the truth.

Yang Guo was helpless, watching the pretty girl glare at him and ask questions, each word full of hidden meaning; the beautiful girl, however, remained silent, her eyes filled with murderous intent.

I lament how difficult life is.

"She said her name was Yu'er and she worked as a maid in Lu Family Village."

Yang Guo didn't believe this explanation, but she insisted on saying it, and no matter how he played with her, she only moaned and refused to speak.

"Fish? You call her shrimp or bird? Why don't you call her sword? You just saved her and now you're all over her. Shameless!" Guo Fu was furious. She hadn't even gotten close to the fish after being saved, and this fish that suddenly appeared was already clinging to her.

Yang Guo sighed, realizing he couldn't handle Miss Guo's sharp tongue and had no choice but to ask Huang Rong for help.

Little did they know that Huang Rong was looking at Guo Fu with an encouraging expression.

Encouraged by her mother, Guo Fu felt her fighting power soar: "Fish, right? Lu Family Manor, right? We're almost there. I'd like to ask the manor lord's wife where that fish is. I wonder what it looks like. How dare it come out and embarrass itself?"

As Guo Fu spoke, she puffed out her increasingly full breasts. Why wasn't he gentle with her? He gave her his clothes after only one meeting with Yu'er, and that night she lay on the ground being bullied by him, yet he didn't even put a piece of clothing on her. He even made her moan for others to hear.

Guo Fu grew angrier the more she thought about it. He actually made her shout it out to others. He was shameless.

Huang Rong watched as her daughter's combat power soared to this point, vaguely on the verge of collapse.

How could they dare let her continue?

She quickly gave Yang Guo a look, signaling him to coax him.

Yang Guo looked at the woman who was about to cry, and although he didn't know why, he was making Huang Rong anxious.

He then said, "Guo Xiao... uh, Fu'er, then may I call you Fu'er from now on?"

Huang Rong rolled her eyes. What was the use of that? After hearing her daughter's reply, she rolled her eyes even higher.

"Really? Then you can't call me Miss or Young Lady anymore, you can only call me Fu'er."

Huang Rong is furious now.

Yang Guo hurriedly asked about the parts of the Book of Changes that he did not understand.

Fortunately, Huang Rong took this matter very seriously.

At present, Peach Blossom Island still has no one to inherit its mantle. Huang Rong heard that her father had taken in a young female disciple who was intelligent and could inherit his mantle.

But she didn't believe he could compare to Yang Guo, having only heard him mention some mental techniques and directions. He then unleashed the Five Revolutions of the Mysterious Gate. He also mastered the Azure Wave Mental Technique and palm techniques within an hour.

Now that he likes the I Ching and the Five Elements, isn't that a perfect match for him?

Huang Rong had always been very interested in these things and had studied them extensively. Although she could no longer pass on other martial arts from Peach Blossom Island, these were not secret manuals or untold techniques. Now that she was teaching them everything she knew, Yang Guo naturally progressed very quickly.

As the Sino-Japanese War approached, two horse-drawn carriages stopped at the gate of Lujiazhuang.

Lu Guanying had already heard from his subordinates that Guo Jing and Huang Rong had arrived, and he was overjoyed.

They were there early to greet us at the door, with servants and maids standing on both sides, truly befitting a wealthy and noble family.

"Brother Guo, you came to Taihu without saying a word. You really look down on me. How come Brother Lu won't even let his elder brother come for a drink in his hometown?"

Guo Jing laughed loudly: "Brother Lu, what are you saying? I've come here to apologize."

Lu Guanying was overjoyed: "Alright, then Brother Guo, let's follow Brother Lu's arrangements this time."

He then bowed to greet Huang Rong, whose father, Lu Chengfeng, was Huang Yaoshi's disciple. According to seniority, he should address Huang Rong as "Shigu" (Master Aunt).

Huang Rong, dressed in a plain white ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress), had lost her heroic spirit but gained a more mature and charming demeanor.

Lu Guanying's eyes lit up. He had only met her once or twice back then, before she married Guo Jing. Now, as a married woman, she was so stunning.

Huang Rong greeted him. With her keen eye, she could see through the lust in Lu Guanying's eyes. However, after so many years apart, she felt a sense of dislike upon seeing him again. She disliked his gaze very much.

The four teenagers then met Lu Guanying.

Lu Guanying lingered on Guo Fu for a while longer.

The crowd entered the hall.

Unexpectedly, Guo Fu spoke first: "Uncle Lu, why hasn't Aunt come?"

Lu Guanying replied, "Your aunt has caught a cold today, so she cannot receive guests. Please forgive her."

Huang Rong said, "In that case, we should meet. Brother Jing, you can catch up with Guan Ying, and I'll take Fu'er to see Sister Cheng."

Guo Jing found Lu Guanying's words reasonable, and he also had something to discuss with Lu Guanying privately.

Huang Rong then took her daughter to see Cheng Yaojia. Since it was not appropriate for the young boys to go to a woman's boudoir, a servant allowed them to tour the room.

Before long, the three of them were led by three beautiful maids to three different paths.

In the lobby, Lu Guanying led Guo Jing into the study.

"Brother Guo, what do you think of the matter I mentioned in my letter a few days ago?"

"Brother Lu, your suggestion is good, but... isn't it too risky? If it fails, I'm afraid many heroes will lose their lives."

"Hey, Brother Guo, what is this sacrifice for the country? Besides, it is thanks to Hero Guo's influence that we were able to start this uprising. Moreover, we were also robbing goods from the Jin Kingdom."

"Brother Lu, have you made all the arrangements?"

"Of course, I'd like to show you my skills, Brother Guo. Please rest well today, and I'll host a welcome dinner for you at Zuixianlou tomorrow."

"Isn't this inappropriate?"

"Who in the Jiangnan region doesn't know Brother Guo's name? Now that you're here, Brother Guo, please put your mind at ease."

Upon hearing this, Guo Jing recalled the bandits. Although he had captured the leader, the others either fled or died. In the end, he had also crippled the leader, but he still hadn't been able to find out who the owner of Yiyun Manor was.

This is a good opportunity to ask Lu Guanying.

"Oh, Brother Guo has seen Yiyun Manor? That's right. This manor has been around for several years and has been developing in secret. It has now become a considerable force, but the manor lord has never shown his face, and no one knows who he is."

Guo Jing was startled: "Brother Lu, you didn't know either?"

Lu Guanying shook his head, a strange light flashing in his eyes: "Although I have some skills, my reputation is not as good as Brother Guo's, nor do I have Brother Guo's skills. I have never been able to find out who the master of Yiyun Manor is."

"Brother Guo, tonight, let's go to Zuixianlou again to meet with the many heroes and have a detailed discussion."

Yang Guo was led by a beautiful female servant to a library, which was said to be a library in Lu Family Manor for guests to study and visit, and contained some well-known classics.

Yang Guo's interest was piqued, and he went to watch.

Upon arriving at the library, he found it empty except for a vast collection of books, and Yang Guo couldn't wait to browse through them.

I had only taken two steps when I heard a "Ouch!" from behind.

The beautiful maid accidentally tripped and fell, tearing her skirt and revealing her white thighs, with the deepest part of her thighs vaguely visible.

A pair of small feet were also exposed, and the ankles were red as if they had been twisted.

Another ankle injury?

Yang Guo kindly went to help her up, and she gently fell into his arms. She said softly, "Young master, you are so handsome. My name is Bi'er. My feet hurt." As she spoke, she rubbed her hand against Yang Guo's chest.

A wicked glint flashed in Yang Guo's eyes, and he revealed a wicked smile: "How about I rub it for you?"

Bi'er didn't expect it to go so smoothly. He really is a vigorous young man. This time, she can have a taste of something new. It would be even better if he were a virgin.

Yang Guo pinched her ankle and gently massaged it.

Na Bi'er occasionally let out alluring sounds.

Anyone who didn't know better would have thought something was wrong; they would never guess that this was an ankle massage.

Yang Guo switched hands and used more force, which made Bi'er scream even louder.

"Miss, does it still hurt?"

"Ouch, that hurts."

Yang Guo switched hands and grasped her other ankle. He asked again, "How about this?"

"It hurts, young master, please be gentle."

Yang Guo laughed and said, "Oh, really?"

Bi'er smiled at the handsome young man, puzzled, "Young master, Bi'er is really in pain."

Yang Guo chuckled wickedly again: "Women are so soft. I never thought that even a perfectly good ankle would hurt when I held it."

Bi'er was taken aback. Looking down, she saw that the young man was holding her own clean, uninjured foot. She stammered, "..."

"Yes, yes, young master, you are so handsome that I've forgotten about my injured foot."

Yang Guo smiled but remained silent.

On the other side, in the main courtyard.

Huang Rong and Guo Fu arrived at Cheng Yaojia's bedroom and saw a stunningly beautiful woman sitting at the table, draped in snow-white velvet. Her face was a little pale, as if she were ill, but there was no trace of distress between her brows. On the contrary, she gave people the feeling that she was in a good mood.

When Cheng Yaojia saw Huang Rong leading the girl, the two exchanged pleasantries.

Originally, the two didn't have much of a bond as fellow disciples, after all, one was from Peach Blossom Island and the other from the Quanzhen Sect. If it were a matter of sectarian affiliation, the two sects wouldn't even get along. But if it were a matter of marriage, Cheng Yaojia should call Huang Rong "Shigu" (a term of respect for a female disciple) like Lu Guanying, but the two had known each other for a long time.

They initially addressed each other as sisters, so even after they both married, they still considered each other as sisters. Cheng Yaojia was two years older than Huang Rong, so Huang Rong always called her Sister Cheng.

Seeing that Cheng Yaojia looked well, Huang Rong asked, "Sister Cheng, how come you caught a cold? Have you been working too hard lately?"

"Yes, I'm sorry to have troubled you, Rong-mei. I went out today and caught a cold, but I'm fine now."

"That's good."

However, Cheng Yaojia was suddenly filled with worry about Huang Rong's husband's family and her own husband's family.

Why is she so unlucky, yet she thinks she's met her soulmate...?

"Aunt Cheng, can I ask you something?"

After exchanging a few pleasantries with her mother, Guo Fu felt she could get down to business. She didn't care about catching a cold; she only cared about the fish.

When Cheng Yaojia heard that Miss Guo had come to the manor looking for a girl named Yu'er, she muttered to herself in confusion, "Yu'er? I don't remember having a maid named Yu'er in the manor."

Huang Rong and Guo Fu were both stunned when they heard this. Cheng Yaojia would never lie to them, so it must be Yang Guo who was lying to them.

What a Yang Guo! He's lied to me again.

Guo Fu angrily ran off to find Yang Guo.

Huang Rong, being an elder, felt it inappropriate to leave, so she asked about her sister Cheng again.

Cheng Yaojia pondered for a moment. She really didn't remember having a maid named Yu'er in the mansion. Perhaps Lu Guanying had hired her. She never asked about such things.

So they summoned the butler, who replied that there was indeed none.

Huang Rong was certain that Yang Guo had lied to her again.

We'll settle accounts with him later, but first we noticed that Sister Cheng suddenly blushed.

Cheng Yaojia was also confused. She had to ask several times before she remembered which fish was.

This is just a name I made up to fool my little sweetheart.

That rascal only knows how to tease her. Her identity is sensitive, and she was unwilling to tell the truth, so she casually mentioned that her name was Yu'er and that she worked as a maid in Lu Family Village.

Huh, does that nemesis know Rong-meimei?

Has he come to the manor?

Thinking of this made her blush.

Seeing the woman's expression, Huang Rong couldn't help but rub her forehead in exasperation, her heart filled with rage: Yang Guo, you just wait until tonight!
