My family has been wielding knives for generations, but now it's my turn to wield a pen!

"Oh, him?"

Upon hearing Zhong Lichun's introduction, the two middle-aged men paused for a moment, their gazes returning to Jiang Xiaobai.

After a quick glance, the two looked at each other, and their expressions changed, becoming somewhat strange.

Indeed, Jiang Xiaobai did have an extraordinary appearance.

Judging from that aura, his martial arts strength was clearly weak.

Such strength is probably unmatched even by ordinary disciples within their sect.

Therefore, if Jiang Xiaobai relies on his identity to intimidate ordinary people, it might have some effect.

But... those who have come to Longhu Mountain now are all people from the martial arts world.

This place not only contains masters from various schools and sects, but also many notorious villains in the martial arts world.

When those people start fighting, they don't care about your status as a prince.

When a real conflict breaks out, Jiang Xiaobai won't be able to hold the line; he'll probably be scared to tears first.

"Ahem, my dear nephew, we two didn't mean to look down on you!"

One of the middle-aged men chuckled dryly and looked at Jiang Xiaobai, speaking up: "The main reason is that with the opening of Cangfeng Mountain this time, quite a few people from various sects and factions in the martial arts world have come!"

"Among them, there are some with a less-than-stellar reputation in the martial arts world!"

At this point, the middle-aged man paused slightly and said, "If there really is some conflict, I'm afraid it will be detrimental to my nephew!"

"That's right!"

Another middle-aged man nodded in agreement, saying, "People in the martial arts world are mostly arrogant and unruly. If things really get out of hand, they might not care about your status, nephew!"

"Therefore, my dear nephew, why don't you get some rest tonight and return to the capital early tomorrow morning?"

Jiang Xiaobai and Jiang Jingcheng are ultimately different.

Jiang Jingcheng is the Duke of Zhenguo, and his strength is at the seventh rank.

Moreover, the fact that he commands an army of 800,000 in the north is enough to send chills down one's spine.

Although Jiang Xiaobai is Jiang Jingcheng's son, his influence is far inferior to Jiang Xiaobai's.

"No need for that. Now that I'm here, I have no intention of leaving!"

Jiang Xiaobai smiled slightly.

Although their words seemed to belittle him, he could tell that they meant well.

Just as he was about to explain something, Chen Jian, who was next to him, also snorted coldly.

"Hmph, let's see who dares!"

Chen Jian stepped forward, looked at the two middle-aged men, and said, "Anyone who dares to harm my close friend will be killed by me!!"

Ok?

Upon hearing this, both of them turned their gazes to Chen Jian.

At first, they didn't pay much attention, but after taking a closer look, their expressions changed.

Indeed, Chen Jian may look ordinary, but his aura is quite unique.

No matter how they feel, they cannot see through the depths.

This young man... he's a master!

The two middle-aged men exchanged another glance before saying nothing more.

"Alright, since they're already here, let's leave it at that!"

Zhong Lichun waved his hand, then looked at the young woman beside him and said, "Yueyue, why don't you take them to their lodgings first?"

"Also, once that general arrives, make arrangements for them as well!"

"Yes, Master!"

Hu Yue nodded gently.

"Xiaobai, thank you for your hard work traveling all this way!"

Zhong Lichun then looked at Jiang Xiaobai again and said, "Get a good rest for the night, and I'll take you to meet our sect leader tomorrow morning!"

"good!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai immediately nodded in agreement.

"Young Master Jiang, please come with me!"

Hu Yue looked at Jiang Xiaobai, speaking politely, and then led the way into the sect.

Jiang Xiaobai gestured to Zhong Lichun, and then followed with Chen Jian and the other two.

Walking through the Dragon Tiger Sect, you can see many disciples dressed in sect attire coming and going.

When these people saw Jiang Xiaobai and his group, they would all take a curious look.

The eldest princess, in particular, was wearing a bamboo hat, which completely covered her face, attracting even more attention.

However, with Hu Yue leading the way, none of the sect disciples stepped forward to ask questions.

The group walked along the bluestone path for a while and finally arrived at the accommodations that the Dragon Tiger Sect used to entertain guests.

Located a bit further out from the sect, this place features small courtyards scattered along the mountainside, creating a peaceful atmosphere.

Before long, Hu Yue led them to a courtyard.

Jiang Xiaobai looked up and found that the courtyard was not big, but the environment was quite nice.

There are two large trees in the courtyard, with a stone table and stone benches under the trees, and the ground is very clean.

Standing at the edge of the courtyard, you can even see a large expanse of mountains and forests in the distance.

As for the houses in the courtyard, although they are all made of wood, they look quite sturdy.

"Young Master Jiang, there are four guest rooms in this courtyard!"

Hu Yue stopped and turned around, saying, "It's just enough for the four of you. I'll have my disciples bring over some dinner later!"

"Oh, I won't need dinner!"

Jiang Xiaobai shook his head.

They had already eaten in the carriage.

Although it's still just flatbread and dried meat, this stuff is filling.

"Alright!"

Hu Yue nodded gently: "Then you should all get a good rest tonight. Tomorrow morning, I'll instruct the kitchen to prepare some food!"

"Can!"

Jiang Xiaobai nodded with a smile and said, "Thank you for your hard work!"

"Young Master Jiang, you're too kind!"

Hu Yue shook her head slightly, then briefly introduced the locations of the rooms before turning and walking out of the courtyard.

After Hu Yue left, Jiang Xiaobai took the lead and pushed open one of the room doors to go inside and take a look.

The room was very simply furnished.

There was a wooden bed, a table, and a tea set; that was all.

This also shows that these rooms are specifically for guests to stay temporarily.

However, the room was very clean, and the bedding on the bed was obviously newly changed.

"This is the Dragon Tiger Sect; there shouldn't be any security issues here!"

Jiang Xiaobai glanced around, then turned to Chen Jian, Tang Ningshuang, and the Princess, saying, "Besides, this room isn't big. If we move another bed in, it won't fit!"

"So... tonight, let's each have our own room!"

"good!"

Chen Jian didn't think much of it and nodded in agreement.

After hearing this, Tang Ningshuang hesitated slightly.

She stayed by Jiang Xiaobai's side mainly to protect him.

But as Jiang Xiaobai said, this is the Dragon Tiger Sect, and no one should easily cause trouble here.

After thinking for a moment, Tang Ningshuang finally nodded gently and said, "Okay!"

"Okay, it's settled then!"

Jiang Xiaobai responded, then gestured to the princess before walking outside.

But just as he led the way to the door, a scream suddenly came from behind him.

"Um?"

Jiang Xiaobai was stunned for a moment, and before he could react, he felt a sudden weight on his shoulder.

Suddenly, the princess leaped up and straddled his neck.

"hiss……"

Jiang Xiaobai was swayed by the weight and quickly grabbed the door frame for support, looking up with a bewildered expression.

The princess was gripping his head tightly with one hand, while pointing to the door with the other, her voice trembling.

"There's...there's a giant toad!!"
