"Oh my, Lin Wanrong let out a thunderous roar, feeling his heart shatter and his eyes welling with tears. In that moment, countless thoughts flashed through his mind, all transformed into the resolute and deep gaze of Xiao Yushuang.
"Ah!" Lin Wanrong uttered a earth-shattering scream, desperately squeezing his body in front of Xiao Yushuang to protect her. Miss Second, with tears streaming down her face, wore a faint smile.
With a light clang, Lin Wanrong, thinking he had sacrificed himself for Miss Second, held Xiao Yushuang's hand, thinking, 'I can only repay this girl's deep affection in my next life.'
After waiting for a moment, feeling no pain in his body, he opened his eyes to see a gleaming sword held in front of him and Xiao Yushuang, blocked by another sword.
The assailant turned out to be a slender and masked figure in black. He turned to the one holding his sword and shouted, "Junior sister, what are you doing? We entered this mansion; without shedding some blood on our swords, how can we leave?"
The junior sister, a delicate and veiled woman, replied, "Senior brother, don't bother about these servants. The matter is urgent today; handle it quickly. Don't wait until our enemies arrive; it will be difficult for us to escape."
Her voice was muffled, and Lin Wanrong struggled to understand it.
Lin Wanrong felt a cold sweat all over his body, realizing that he had narrowly escaped death under the sword just now. Apart from the moment he fell from Mount Tai, this was the most despairing moment of his life.
He turned to look at Xiao Yushuang. She had tears on her face, but there was a hint of a smile, her eyes bright like water. There was no fear; she held onto Lin Wanrong's hand and refused to let go.
Unable to express his own emotions, Lin Wanrong was deeply moved by this girl. With her sacrificial act today, Xiao Yushuang was no longer a child but a woman with deep feelings.
Lin Wanrong struggled to suppress his emotions, feeling guilty for all he owed this girl. Remembering his attitude towards her before, he held her hand tightly, realizing his own worthlessness.
The senior brother seemed somewhat wary of the junior sister. She sheathed her sword, saying, "Senior brother, why bother with these servants? The situation is urgent today; deal with the main matter quickly. Don't wait until our enemies arrive; it will be hard for us to escape."
Her voice was strange, and Lin Wanrong strained to understand it.
Lin Wanrong sighed, almost shedding tears, thinking that this girl had truly taken his life. He felt regret for his previous attitude towards her, realizing she had risked her life to save him.
The senior brother, seemingly wary of the junior sister, sheathed his sword and said, "Since that's the case, let's follow junior sister's plan. Hurry and take Miss Xiao and that servant, and let's return soon."
The girl acknowledged and, passing in front of Xiao Yushuang, noticed her tightly held hand. With a hint of anger in her eyes, she scoffed, "You, woman of the night, shameless indeed. You've tarnished our reputation as women. Today, I will gouge out your eyes and see how you can seduce men in the future."
She formed her fingers into hooks, swift as lightning, creating a gust of wind as she aimed for Xiao Yushuang's eyes.
"Lin San!" Xiao Yushuang cried out in shock, hiding behind Lin Wanrong.
Hearing Xiao Yushuang call out Lin Wanrong's name, the senior brother and sister were both stunned. The senior brother's eyes revealed a hint of a cold smile.
Miss Second's position in Lin Wanrong's heart was self-evident. This deeply affectionate woman, even if sacrificing her life, she would ensure his safety.
Lin Wanrong stood in front of Xiao Yushuang, protecting her tightly. The junior sister made a quick move and, in an instant, arrived in front of Lin Wanrong.
Lin Wanrong felt a gust of wind pass by as the girl's delicate and powerful fingers brushed across his face, yet didn't harm him in the slightest.
His heart pounded, thinking he had narrowly escaped death once again. In the presence of these formidable experts, his myriad strategies were futile. Though he felt fear, he found solace in the fact that he was protecting the young girl, Xiao Yushuang.
The senior brother seemed somewhat afraid of his mistress. She sheathed her sword, saying, "Fine, junior sister, what are you doing here? The situation is urgent today; finish the main task quickly. Don't wait until our enemies arrive; it will be difficult for us to escape."
The girl's voice was muffled, and it took Lin Wanrong considerable effort to understand it clearly.
Lin Wanrong could only feel cold sweat all over his body. He had almost lost his life under that sword just now. Since someone had specifically named him to be captured, there must be a request, and they must have concerns about his life. That's why Lin Wanrong dared to say such shocking words. However, facing the blade at his neck, he couldn't remain silent. Before he could speak, Xiao Yushuang said, "He is not Lin San; I am Lin San."
Miss Second's words were extremely naive. If this had been said before, Lin Wanrong would have thought she was like a child. But now, hearing it, he felt that this woman was simple and sincere, quite endearing.
He glanced gently at Xiao Yushuang, smiled at her, and held her tightly behind him, saying to the man, "You're right; I am Lin San."
"Haha!" The man burst into laughter, looking up at the sky. "So you are really Lin San. Finding you was not in vain at all. I won't make things difficult for you. You can come with us strangely and join us."
The man seemed to be afraid of his mistress. After taking back the sword, he said, "Since that's the case, listen to junior sister. Go quickly, bring Miss Xiao and that servant, and return as soon as possible."
The girl responded with an acknowledgment and, passing by Xiao Yushuang, saw her tightly held hand. A hint of anger flashed in her eyes, and she snorted, saying, "You, woman, seducing others late at night, truly shameless. You've disgraced the dignity of our women. Today, I'll gouge out your eyes and see how you can seduce men in the future."
She formed her fingers into hooks, swift as lightning, creating a gust of wind as she aimed for Xiao Yushuang's eyes.
"Lin San!" Xiao Yushuang exclaimed in fear, hiding behind Lin Wanrong.
Hearing Xiao Yushuang call out Lin Wanrong's name, the senior brother and sister were both stunned. The senior brother's eyes revealed a hint of a cold smile.

Lin
"Oh my, even though I soar in the sky like a puppet, controlled by others, I still have to rely on these courtesans for salvation. For the first time, a sense of sorrow rises in his heart. Despite possessing an immensely rich scientific knowledge, in this world where might is right, strength is the ultimate truth.
Xiao Qingxuan's sword, though unparalleled in power, has consumed a considerable amount of her true qi. With her strength depleted by more than half, she lacks the power to strike again. This single blow has not achieved its full potential, leaving Lin Wanrong taken away by others.
She stomped her foot fiercely, feeling a pang in her heart. She thought, 'I taught you some martial arts, but you always found various excuses. Now, let's see how you survive this time.' Yet, she also knew that even if Lin Wanrong learned those skills, they were just superficial, useless against the wicked enemies like the White Lotus Sect.
As she pondered, her eyes became slightly moist. She secretly blamed herself for leaving too early today. If she had waited a bit longer, this situation would not have occurred. However, now, her strength was depleted, and she lacked the ability to pursue. Her mind felt empty, as if drained of all strength.
In the midst of confusion, she felt a strong wind from behind. Reacting swiftly, she blocked the attack with a sword, only to find her junior sister's blade.
"Sneak attack from behind, despicable!" Xiao Qingxuan scolded.
Her junior sister chuckled, "In your eyes, the White Lotus Sect is already a bunch of demons. I'm not despicable; I'm just not a White Lotus Saint."
Xiao Qingxuan said, "With your skills, you're among the best in the White Lotus Sect. I don't believe you're an unknown figure."
Her junior sister laughed, "I almost forgot. In terms of seniority, I should address you as sister. Please convey my greetings to Senior Ning and wish her eternal beauty, forever the best in the world."
Xiao Qingxuan was astonished, "You're indeed under that witch's sect. I don't need such a junior sister."
Her junior sister nonchalantly smiled, "I noticed how desperately you used your true qi to save Lin San just now. Could it be that Lin San is your lover?"
"You—" Xiao Qingxuan's face turned red, angrily saying, "You White Lotus witch, stop spreading false accusations."
Her junior sister's eyes flashed, and she sneered, "Whether you admit it or not, back then, you escaped from my hands and even injured me. Today, I will settle the score with you."
She was ready to fight. Her elegant palms turned, radiating waves of white light like a white lotus flower. Transforming her palms into claws, she aimed directly at Xiao Qingxuan's face, intending to ruin her complexion.
Seeing her vicious attack, Xiao Qingxuan felt annoyed. She clenched her teeth, circulated her true qi throughout her body, and a faint blue glow appeared in her palms, striking directly at her fair wrists.
"Under Senior Ning's guidance, all disciples are exceptionally beautiful. Today, I will ruin your face and see how you can seduce men," her junior sister said with a smile, her actions accelerating. She skillfully avoided Xiao Qingxuan's palm, and with five fingers spread, she aimed for Xiao Qingxuan's eyes.
The two, with a history in the same sect, engaged in a fascinating battle. Their blue and white true qi intertwined, creating a splendid display. If Lin Wanrong were present, he would surely marvel at the magnificent fireworks.
Her junior sister's finger techniques were elusive and sharp, while Xiao Qingxuan's moves appeared deceptively simple. They countered and parried each other, displaying two extremes in their techniques. After a short while, Xiao Qingxuan's movements gradually slowed down.
Her junior sister, a cunning and fierce character, noticed Xiao Qingxuan's fatigue and intensified her attacks. Several times, she almost scratched Xiao Qingxuan's face.
Feeling a sense of helplessness, Xiao Qingxuan stamped her foot and jumped out of the battle ring, no longer entangled in the fight. She said, "Qin Xian'er, if I continue fighting you like this, I'll get injured, and you won't benefit either."
Her junior sister shivered, asking, "How did you recognize me?"
She slowly pulled down her veil, revealing the charming face of Qin Xian'er. If Lin Wanrong witnessed this scene, he would surely find it hard to believe that the gentle and charming woman before him had a heart full of resentment and ruthlessness as a White Lotus witch.
Xiao Qingxuan had been observing her for days, with Qin Xian'er in the light and herself in the shadows. In their previous encounter, she was injured by Qin Xian'er and her senior brothers. She had already confirmed that this woman was Qin Xian'er.
Seeing through Qin Xian'er's disguise today, she sneered, "Do you think your tricks can deceive others? Unfortunately, that person is oblivious to repentance and still believes in you."
Qin Xian'er smiled charmingly, "Senior sister, your words seem to carry a hint of sourness."
Ignoring her words, Xiao Qingxuan coldly said, "You want to ruin my appearance to protect Lin Wanrong from developing affection towards me. I suspect you have feelings for him."
Qin Xian'er blushed slightly and responded, "Yes, I do like him. What's wrong with that? At least I dare to admit it. But looking at your appearance just now, senior sister, you seemed to have lost your soul. It's a pity; you chose the wrong path and will never have a chance again, hehe."
Xiao Qingxuan, angered, said, "I won't indulge in baseless arguments with you. You, at such a young age, appear gentle and charming in front of him, but behind his back, you're so jealous. I doubt Lin Wanrong would fancy you."
Qin Xian'er sneered, "Thanks for the reminder, senior sister. Can I interpret it as you being jealous? Hehe, sorry, I forgot. Senior sister, you can never get married. What a pity, really a pity."
