Martial Arts Crossover: My master tricked Huang Rong into becoming my wife!

"Senior! Spare the eagle with your sword!"

Chen Yanzhou's eyelids twitched wildly, and with a swift movement, he stood in front of the Divine Condor.

Huang Yaoshi paused, and the sword tip stopped steadily half an inch in front of Chen Yanzhou's nose, without even cutting off a single hair.

He glanced at Chen Yanzhou and his daughter with a half-smile, his tone playful: "What, you don't want either of them anymore? Weren't you arguing so fiercely just now?"

"No, no!" Huang Rong shook her head like a rattle drum.

Huang Yaoshi scoffed lightly, and with a casual flick of his wrist, tossed the Qingguang Sword back to Huang Rong.

Huang Rong was startled and hurriedly reached out to catch it.

"Father! Can't you be more careful?" Huang Rong stomped her foot reproachfully.

Huang Yaoshi ignored her and stood with his hands behind his back.

Huang Rong pursed her lips, hung the sword back on her waist, glanced at Chen Yanzhou and the Condor Heroes, and gave them some instructions.

"You must take good care of Brother Eagle."

After saying that, she turned around and tried to run away with Huang Yaoshi.

Huang Yaoshi, his blue robe fluttering, was about to use his lightness skill to leave.

"Wait a minute!"

Chen Yanzhou's voice rang out again, abruptly stopping the two in their tracks.

Huang Yaoshi paused, then slowly turned around.

This time, even through the mask, Chen Yanzhou could sense the impatience in that emotion.

The surrounding air seemed to cool down a bit with this turn, and the fallen leaves on the ground moved on their own without any wind, swirling and scattering to the side.

"Kid."

Huang Yaoshi's voice was deep and carried a dangerous undertone, "Again and again. Do you really think I, Huang, have no temper?"

It was one thing to stop them from killing the eagle earlier, but now they're blocking our way?

Huang Rong stood beside her father, hands on her hips, chin held high, and barked at Chen Yanzhou with a show of force, "That's right! Do you really think I have no temper?"

After saying that, she made a face at Chen Yanzhou.

Chen Yanzhou found it amusing to look at the father and daughter's identical arrogant demeanor.

He bowed to Huang Yaoshi.

"How dare I, a junior?"

Chen Yanzhou's face was full of sincere smiles. "Island Master Huang is a grandmaster of his generation. His martial arts are unparalleled, and he is proficient in all the arts, including music, chess, calligraphy and painting. His mastery of divination is also unmatched in the world."

My admiration for you is like a surging river, never-ending, and like the Yellow River overflowing its banks, unstoppable…

This round of flattery flowed smoothly and effortlessly.

As the saying goes, you can't hit a smiling face, let alone such a high-level compliment.

Although Huang Yaoshi had an eccentric personality, he couldn't resist being praised so openly to his face.

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly beneath the mask, and his fierce aura visibly diminished.

"Glib talker." Huang Yaoshi snorted, but his tone was clearly not as aggressive as before. "Speak quickly if you have something to say, or shut up if you have something to say."

Huang Rong, who was listening from the side, stared wide-eyed, a vague sense of unease creeping into her heart.

Seeing that the time was right, Chen Yanzhou straightened up, his smile fading and replaced with a serious expression.

"As a master of his generation, who stood out from the crowd, the word 'trust and righteousness' must have been as important as Mount Tai in his heart."

Huang Yaoshi raised an eyebrow, wondering what this young man was up to, but still replied calmly, "Of course. In my life, although I am not bound by etiquette, I never owe anyone anything, much less renege on a debt."

"good!"

Chen Yanzhou shouted, "Senior, you are indeed of noble character! I admire you!"

This shout startled even the eagle standing nearby.

When Huang Rong heard the words "reneging on the debt," her heart skipped a beat, and she immediately realized that he wanted to settle accounts with her.

He quickly pretended to be a quail and began to subtly move backward.

"In that case, I am relieved."

As Chen Yanzhou spoke, he reached into his robes.

Just as Huang Rong took two steps, Chen Yanzhou's ambiguous gaze suddenly fell upon her, locking onto her precisely.

"Miss Huang, where are you going? Are you trying to renege on your debt?"

Huang Rong froze, one foot still dangling in mid-air, unsure whether to land or retract it.

Faced with Huang Yaoshi's questioning gaze, Huang Rong awkwardly forced a smile that looked more like a grimace: "No...no way! My legs are just...just a little sore."

"Oh? Is that so?" Chen Yanzhou looked at her with a smile. "If we're going to calculate it, we could stay at the Beggars' Sect for a few days."

Huang Rong shook her head with a wry smile.

As he spoke, under the watchful eyes of the father and daughter, he slowly and deliberately took out a stack of papers from his pocket.

It wasn't just one or two sheets, but a thick stack.

Chen Yanzhou patted the stack of bills in his palm, making a crisp "slap slap" sound, which sounded like a death knell to Huang Rong.

He took two steps forward, stood before Huang Yaoshi, and presented the bill with both hands.

"Senior, this is your daughter's expense list for this morning in Xiangyang City."

Chen Yanzhou spoke calmly, a smile playing on his lips, "It involves a total of twelve shops, including Jinxiuzhuang, Baoyuxuan, and Juweizhai. Among them are a Suzhou embroidery flowing cloud skirt, a Shu brocade pleated skirt, a Cantonese embroidery flowing fairy skirt, a mutton fat jade hairpin, a pair of jadeite earrings, and a number of snacks..."

With each item read aloud, Huang Rong lowered her head a little further.

As he finished reading, Chen Yanzhou paused, raised his head, and looked intently at Huang Yaoshi.

"In total, it is 3,280 taels of silver. Your daughter said that the account should be recorded under the name of the Beggars' Sect. But our Beggars' Sect is, after all, a den of beggars. Every penny is hard-earned money that our brothers beg for. Even the landlord's family has no surplus grain."

Chen Yanzhou sighed, his face full of compassion, "I thought that with your status and position, you would certainly not stoop to taking advantage of us poor beggars, so I specially brought the bill for you to review."

Upon hearing this, Huang Yaoshi's eyes widened suddenly.

"How much...?"

"Three thousand two hundred and eighty taels." Chen Yanzhou kindly rounded it down for him. "Out of respect for you, senior, I'll cover the remaining twenty or eighty taels out of my own pocket. You can just give me three thousand taels."

Chen Yanzhou looked magnanimous, as if he had suffered a great loss.

Huang Yaoshi took a deep breath and felt a tightness in his chest.

Although Peach Blossom Island is a large and wealthy place with countless treasures, he never carries this much cash with him when he travels the world!

Moreover, he didn't have that much cash to spare.

Huang Yaoshi glanced at the bills, then looked at Huang Rong beside him with a questioning look in his eyes.

Huang Rong noticed Huang Yaoshi's gaze, forced a smile, nodded, and didn't dare to renege on her promise.
