Zhu Tian: Starting from the World of Zongwu

Song Xuan glanced around and saw that no one was around. He whispered, "No one saw us, did they?"

"Don't worry, we are no longer the same as before. With my current skills, my movements will be absolutely clean and neat, and I won't give anyone any handle!"

"It's okay if it falls behind!" Song Xuan took a sip of tea. "After dinner, give some to the people below. Don't eat it all by yourself."

"I know, I'm not stupid!"

Song Xuan smiled and nodded, without saying anything more. He finished the leg of lamb in his hand and ate two plates of barbecued meat. Only after he had eaten his fill did he stand up and stretch.

"It's getting dark, you should go back and rest early."

"It's time to rest!" Song Qian stood up and pointed to the room where Song Xuan lived, smiling playfully, "They say that after a good meal and a good drink, it's time to do something. Brother, can you tell me the origin of the woman tied up in your room?"

"Oh?"

Song Xuan was stunned. He was just focused on eating with Song Qian. He was relaxed and didn't pay too much attention to the surrounding situation. Now, after Song Qian mentioned it, he concentrated and actually sensed a woman's breathing in his room.

With some doubts, Song Xuan pushed open the door and saw a woman dressed like a beggar, with a handkerchief stuffed in her mouth, her body tied up with circles of iron chains, lying weakly on the bed.

Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, the woman immediately began to struggle, humming, and one could clearly sense the anger and fear in her voice.

"It is you......"

Song Xuan was a little surprised. This little beggar-looking girl was the one he had accidentally seen on the street during the day. She looked somewhat like Huang Rong.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be Huang Rong. I just saw her during the day, and she was kidnapped and sent to my door at night.

After a little thought, he understood the reason.

It was probably because he looked at her a few more times at that time, and his subordinates misunderstood that he was interested in this type of woman, so they secretly kidnapped Huang Rong.

He raised his hand and took the handkerchief out of Huang Rong's mouth. Before the other party could start cursing, Song Xuan spoke first.

"You are lying on my bed in the dead of night. Are you planning to assassinate me?"

Huang Rong, who was about to open her mouth to curse, was stunned and stared at Song Xuan in disbelief. For a moment, she, who was always eloquent, did not react.

This bastard surnamed Song, was he speaking human language just now?

Chapter 97 Huang Rong: Hurry up, don’t mess up my hair!

"You, what did you just say?"

Huang Rong felt as if she had misheard. She glanced at the chains on her body and said with a hint of anger, "When have you ever seen an assassin tie you up and assassinate you?"

"That's not necessarily the case!"

Victoria Song laughed and said, "What if you are deliberately showing weakness? Brother, let me tell you, there are many tricks in the underworld, so be careful not to fall into their trap.

I heard that some women like to pretend to be in danger, waiting for the young men to rescue them, and then they take the opportunity to rely on them and ask for their love.

I think this woman is very strange, she is probably playing tricks on you!"

"What you said seems to make sense!"

Song Xuan suppressed his smile and looked at Huang Rong, "Hey, little girl, you won't regret taking the secret manual from you, deliberately showing weakness and plotting against me, right?"

Upon hearing this, Huang Rong's tears immediately flowed down.

"You evil person! You were the one who kidnapped me, yet you still insulted me with such words! We had agreed to be even, so why are you doing this again?!"

"Oh?" Victoria blinked, suddenly curious, "Brother, you know her? When did you meet her? How come I don't know?"

"Before, outside the imperial capital, I was practicing sword energy on my way home when this little thief..."

Before he could finish, Huang Rong shouted anxiously, "You promised me not to call me a thief anymore. How could you be like this? You don't keep your word and go back on your words. What kind of hero are you?

If you try to use force on me, I, Huang Rong, will not let you succeed even if I die!"

Song Xuan paused, "It seems that there may be some misunderstanding between Miss Huang and me. How about this, I help you open the chain first, and then we can talk in detail about what happened to you?"

Huang Rong hummed, puffing her cheeks and said angrily, "Then hurry up, and don't mess up my hair."

Song Xuan smiled, stepped forward and grabbed the iron chain tied to Huang Rong. With a slight force, there was a click, and the thick iron chain broke directly in his hand.

As soon as the chains broke, Huang Rong felt a lot more relaxed. She quickly got up from the bed and threw the chains on her body to the ground.

She rolled her eyes at Song Xuan. If anyone else dared to do this to her, she would definitely kill him with a single blow after escaping.

But facing Song Xuan, she knew very well how terrifying the other party was, so after she stood up, she had no intention of taking action at all. Instead, she glared at him fiercely, tapped the ground with her toes, and was about to use her lightness skills to escape from here.

If you can't provoke me, can't you hide from me?

The brother and sister teased her in unison, and they didn't look like good people at first glance!

But just as she jumped up, Victoria Song grabbed her collar with a smile and pulled her back like a kitten.

"Little sister, why are you in such a hurry to leave when you haven't made your point yet?"

Huang Rong sighed, "Sister, it's really nothing serious. I just had a conflict with your brother before, and to make amends, I gave him a light body technique.

Your brother said before that the grudge between him and me was over, but I never thought that today, he would actually send someone to kidnap me."

As she spoke, her eyes rolled, and she pinched the corner of her clothes shyly and lowered her head to Song Xuan, saying, "You, you tied me up, don't you, don't you like..."

"Stop!" Victoria Song interrupted, "Little girl, you're a bit narcissistic. If my brother wants a woman, does he need to kidnap her? There are plenty of beautiful girls who want to come to him on their own!"

Huang Rong seemed to have some understanding of Song Qian's personality, and immediately said with a smile: "That's hard to say, maybe your brother doesn't like those who are delivered to his door, and prefers to tie them up himself!"

Song Qian's expression paused and she looked at her brother with some suspicion.

By the way, it seems that my brother really has this hobby. When Lu Qingxue came to my house, wasn’t she tied up by my brother?

Could it be that this is what he likes?

Seeing Song Qian's expression, Huang Rong panicked. Oh no, she just said it casually, could it be that she guessed it right?

If that evil guy surnamed Song really has such a terrible hobby, then wouldn't she be in real trouble tonight?

"What a mess you guys are talking about!"

Song Xuan was quite speechless. He knew that Huang Rong was a clever and intelligent girl, but he didn't expect that her mind was so quick. In just a few words, she had diverted Song Qian's thoughts.

"Tell me, how were you caught?"

"Mr. Song, you're no longer interesting!" Huang Rong said with a rather unhappy expression, "Didn't you send the Xuanyi Guards to arrest me?"

"Don't try to fool me!" Song Xuan chuckled. "I know very well how good your Qinggong is. If you want to run, even an ordinary Xiantian warrior may not be able to catch you. How can those men under my command possibly catch up with you?"

"No matter how good my Qinggong is, how can I withstand the painstaking calculations of your men?"

Huang Rong snorted, "First, you put knockout drugs in the food I ate. When I realized something was wrong, four specially made iron nets came crashing down from all directions. I was caught off guard and fell into your trap!"

"Is that so..." Song Xuan nodded in realization, and then taught Song Qian, "You see, the world of martial arts is dangerous. Even if you have great martial arts skills, if you are not careful, you may still end up in trouble."

Huang Rong's expression turned grim. "So, you kidnapped me just to teach my sister about the dangers of the martial world?"

"I told you it was a misunderstanding!" Song Xuan said, "I saw you on the street today and you looked familiar, so I took a few more glances. My men probably thought I was attracted to beggar-like women like you, so they took the initiative and abducted you."

"Really?" Huang Rong blinked and thought for a moment, still a little unconvinced.

"really!"

"Can I leave now?" Huang Rong asked, pointing to the door.

"The misunderstanding has been clarified, Miss Huang can naturally leave!"

Song Xuan waved his hand, indicating that she could leave.

Huang Rong walked to the door tentatively and saw that the brother and sister had no intention of taking her back, which made her feel much more relaxed.

Then, she turned around and walked back, "You guys tied me up for no reason, and now you tell me to leave, I have to leave?

It's so dangerous for a weak woman like me to go out in the middle of the night! What if I get kidnapped again?

Song Qian said hesitantly, "Brother, you see, I told you this was a trick. I suspect this girl was kidnapped on purpose to take the opportunity to get close to you!"

Song Xuan's smile faded, and he sat on the chair and said calmly, "Miss Huang, let's not beat around the bush. Tell me, what do you want to do?

Considering the technique book I gave you last time, if it's something I can do, I don't mind doing it for you. Just consider it my apology to you on behalf of my subordinates!"

Chapter 98 Nine Yin Divine Claw

"Does what you say count?"

Huang Rong was naturally overjoyed when she heard Song Xuan's promise.

After seeing the sword energy that was slashed out from the top of the city wall, she had suspected that the evil man Song Xuan had also come to Yangzhou, and she wanted to seek his help.

Although some misunderstandings have occurred, being kidnapped this time is worth it as I can get Song Xuan's personal promise.

Song Qian looked a little strange.

His eyes were constantly looking at Huang Rong's chest. She had always thought that her brother liked big ones, but now it seems that it is not the case.

This girl named Huang Rong doesn't look that old at all. She is about the same level as her little cousin Lin Daiyu.

Turning to look at Song Xuan, he saw that the elder brother's eyes were not on Huang Rong, but were sitting at the table, holding a brush in his hand, writing something on a piece of paper.

As he wrote, Song Xuan said, "Miss Huang, let me make it clear first. I'm also quite busy here. If your matter is easy to handle, then it's fine. But if you have to go on a long trip, then I can't help you!"

“No need to travel far!”

Huang Rong quickly said, "When I first came to Yangzhou, I made a few friends in the city, but when I came back from an errand a while ago, I found that all my friends had disappeared.

Mr. Song, you seem to hold a high position in the Xuanyiwei Yamen. Could you please help me track down their whereabouts?"

"Looking for someone..."

Song Xuan paused with the brush in his hand. "Come here and write down the identities and names of those people. The more detailed the better."

"Thank you, young man!"

Huang Rong was delighted. Although this villain looked scary like a grim god, he was not difficult to get along with. He seemed to be very reliable in what he said and did. No wonder he held a high position at such a young age.

Huang Rong sat next to Song Xuan with a smile on her face. She did not write directly, but spread out the paper first and tilted her head to recall the appearance of several people.

Then, she began to paint with great speed the images of several little beggars in her memory.

Song Xuan did not disturb her. He got up and walked to the door. Outside, the sky had become overcast and it was even drizzling.

"Brother, this girl is not ordinary?"

Victoria Song walked over and asked in a low voice.

She is not stupid. Her brother does not seem to be infatuated with this girl, and they do not seem to have a deep friendship, but he is still willing to help her. It is likely that the other party's identity and background are extraordinary.

Song Xuan nodded slightly, "Yeah, I have a good father!"

"Understood!"

Song Qian glanced at Huang Rong who was concentrating on painting. Although this girl was young, her martial arts skills were quite good. Moreover, her brother said that she was very good at light work. She was probably the eldest daughter of a martial arts family.

Half an hour later, Huang Rong put down her brush, stood up and stretched. "Young Master Song, do you think this is okay?"

Song Xuan stepped forward to take a look. Seeing the lifelike portraits appearing on the paper, he could not help but nod in approval and said, "I didn't expect the young lady's painting skills to be so good. With these portraits, the difficulty has been reduced a lot."

He flipped through the pages casually, and when he came to the last piece of rice paper, his expression paused and he looked at it with some surprise.

But at the top of the paper, there was an extremely powerful martial art written on it. After reading it from beginning to end, Song Xuan subconsciously raised his hand and started practicing in the room.

But when Song Xuan stretched out his five fingers, there was a trace of cold air lingering on his fingers. As the true energy continued to flow on his fingers, a phantom of a giant claw that looked extremely sharp and fierce appeared out of thin air.

As this phantom appeared, a new innate-level martial art appeared in the martial arts column of Song Xuan's attribute panel - the Nine Yin Divine Claw!

"Wow! You are amazing!"

Huang Rong's delicate and lively face showed an expression of disbelief, "It took me a long time to learn this martial art.

Even my father took half a year to fully grasp it, and you were able to understand its essence after just reading it once?"

Song Xuan smiled. This was the result of the previous twenty years of practicing the three elements of essence, energy and spirit, which had laid a solid foundation for the Pure Yang Wuji Boy's Skill.

In addition to the significant improvement in strength, the most obvious effect is that his understanding has also been greatly improved.

Now he always said that for general innate-level martial arts, he basically only needed to look at it once and think about it carefully to understand it.

He raised his hand and clenched it, and the shadow of the Nine Yin Divine Claw in the void seemed to turn into sparks in the sky and disappeared in mid-air. Song Xuan turned his head to look at Huang Rong.

"I told you I would help you. You don't need to come up with a special martial art like this."

Huang Rong shook her head and said, "You're a good person, but I don't like owing favors to others! Help me find someone, and I'll trade my martial arts skills with you. Then we'll be even and no one owes anyone anything!"

"Alright!"
