Chapter 209 Han Mansion Servant
The boy was still asleep when he vaguely heard a series of intermittent songs coming from afar. It was a female voice singing, and it was very beautiful and novel.

"The world is full of laughable things, infatuation is the most pointless, it's good to be arrogant and disregard everything, hmph hmph hmph hmph, mmm mmm mmm mmm."

"Sizzle!"

The girl seemed to be frying fish, singing and humming as she went. Soon, a delicious aroma of fish wafted over.

"Sniff sniff!"

The boy slowly opened his eyes.

What comes into view is a pair of jade feet, glistening with dew, with red ropes tied around their ankles and golden bells jingling with each step.

"So beautiful~" The boy smiled foolishly, then turned his head and suddenly found himself staring at a big, fluffy head.

"Oh my god!" The boy was startled and jumped up, yelling, "Tiger!" He frantically scrambled to the side, clutching his head and shouting, "Don't eat me! Don't eat me!"

After calling out for a long time, he found that the expected excruciating pain did not come; instead, he heard heavy breathing in front of him.

The boy was surprised, so he slowly lowered his hand and opened his eyes.

They met Gian's curious big eyes again!
"Ah~!"

A hearty voice laughed, "Stop yelling, Big Meow doesn't eat people."

The boy quickly turned his head and saw a one-armed youth dressed in a black robe smiling at him.

Her warm and innocent smile made him feel very fond of her, and he wanted to grin.

But I couldn't laugh at all; it looked like I was crying.

With a soft "pfft," the girl who was frying fish on a stone slab by the campfire smiled and said, "Big Meow, don't scare me, let's go play in the mountains."

Fat Tiger responded with a "roar," turned around and ran, his fat jiggling as he ran, making him look extremely comical.

The boy looked on, both surprised and amused, wondering what kind of person could raise a tiger into a pig.

Suddenly, the boy cried out "Oh dear!" and jumped up: "My Ash!"

"That fine steed with Gaochang blood?" the one-armed man laughed. "Young brother, don't worry! With the white donkey watching over it, there won't be any problems."

Upon hearing this, the boy was relieved and patted his chest, saying, "That's good. If Ash were gone, I would be dead!"

Just then, the girl finished frying the fish, casually handed it to him, and asked, "Young man, is your BMW male or female?"

The boy took it, first thanked him, and then, his words slurred from the heat, replied, "A mare, a very cute little mare."

"A mare?!" *2
Hongxiu and Ding'an were startled and exclaimed in unison.

"Huh?" The boy, his mouth full of fish, paused, looking at their reaction. "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Ding An scratched his forehead and chuckled awkwardly, "Mare, that's the problem."

"what?"

The beggar looked blankly at him and asked, "Young man, what kind of custom do you have here? What happens if a woman gives birth to a baby that doesn't match the description?"

The boy thought for a moment and said, "Does my sister mean that a woman commits adultery and gives birth to an illegitimate child?"

“Mmm-hmm!” Hongxiu and Ding’an nodded repeatedly.

The boy snorted coldly: "Where we live, that's punishable by drowning in a pig cage!"

Hongxiu's face turned ashen: "It's over."

The boy was amazed and wanted to ask more questions.

A pleasant voice came from the side: "Young man, may I ask your name?"

Anyone else?
The boy turned his head and was stunned.

In the shadows, leaning against the wall, sat a young man in a white robe, exuding a relaxed and elegant air. His handsome features were accentuated by arched eyebrows that framed a pair of jewel-like eyes. His white robe was clearly too large, yet on him, it only made him appear more extraordinary and dashing.

The boy thought to himself, "My God, this person is so handsome, how come I haven't seen him at all?"

As he pondered, the man's gaze swept over him. The boy felt as if he were naked, and a sense of terror rose in his heart.

"I... my name is Han Bai," the boy stammered. "I was an abandoned baby that the Lord of the Manor found under the cypress tree, so I took his surname, Han, and my given name is Bai."

"Han, Bai?" The man in the white robe smiled gently. "Are you a servant of the Han family of Wuchang?"

"Yes!" Han Bai said with a smile, "Does the young master also know about the Han family?"

"I've heard of it. I've heard they have a lot of weapons in their collection."

Upon hearing this, Han Bai was even more delighted and unconsciously clapped his hands and laughed, "Young master, I am in charge of the armory. I know all the weapons inside like the back of my hand."

Ren Shaoyang smiled slightly: "Brother Han has a bright future and is full of potential."

Upon hearing this, Han Bai became even more excited, scratching his head and cheeks.

The Han family was very famous in Wuchang and even the whole of Jiangnan. Experts from the family had always come and gone frequently, but these experts would not even glance at a servant.

It can be said that Han Bai was a complete nobody, someone no one cared about or paid attention to.

The white-robed youth before him possessed an air and demeanor unlike anything he had ever seen, far surpassing anyone he had ever encountered.

What's even more commendable is that she spoke to him so kindly and gently, how could he not feel flattered?
Han Bai quickly stood up, clasped his hands in greeting, and asked, "Young master, may I ask your name?" Ren Shaoyang smiled and replied, "My name is Ren Shaoyang."

"Ren Hongxiu".

"Li Ding'an".

Han Bai was stunned upon hearing this, then his eyes widened and he exclaimed, "The three of you are actually the 'Three Fiends of the Northern Frontier' who challenged Pang Ban even though he is still alive? It's unbelievable! What merit do I, Han Bai, have to encounter three great heroes!"

This young man served in a martial arts family and had been exposed to countless tales of the martial arts world, thus developing a deep-seated sense of chivalry and a dream of being respected. Therefore, he felt extremely favorably toward these three approachable individuals.

"Oh?" Hongxiu smiled slightly. "We've become famous again?"

Han Bai gave a thumbs up: "Sisters, you're not just famous, you're absolutely famous!"

"Haha," Ding'an laughed, "Tell me what happened?"

Han Bai recounted in great detail: "Pang Ban's demonic power is invincible, and the entire martial world has suffered greatly, its vitality severely damaged. In particular, the righteous path has been lying low for the past twenty years, quietly building up its strength, and even forming an eight-faction alliance just to deal with Pang Ban."

Ding An laughed and said, "So, in the last twenty years, no one has dared to challenge him?"

"More than twenty years? He has been the number one demonic sect in history, dominating the world for sixty years!"

Han Bai exaggeratedly stretched out his hand, making an infinitely large gesture.

"Over the past sixty years, whether it was one-on-one combat or a joint attack, all the top masters of the older generation from various sects have fallen at his hands!"

"Most importantly, he has never been injured, and no one has ever escaped from him!"

"So, when people in the martial arts world, especially those in the legitimate world, learned that Pang Ban was actually injured," Hongxiu said with a slight smile, stroking her chin, "the martial arts world was in an uproar?"

"Just a sensation?" Han Bai gestured exaggeratedly again. "It's an absolute sensation! Recently, countless righteous people have come to the master's mansion, and it's even said that more than half of the eighteen seed masters have come!"

Ding'an and Hongxiu exchanged a glance, then exclaimed in surprise, immediately asking the righteous path experts who the eighteen seed experts were.

Han Bai chuckled as they called him "little brother" repeatedly and told them everything.

She almost wanted to tell everyone about how she wet the bed when she was a few years old.

Ren Shaoyang sat quietly in a corner, head down in thought. When Han Bai stopped talking until his throat was dry, he scratched his head and chuckled.

He then asked in a gentle voice, "Brother Han, there's something I'd like to ask you."

Han Bai quickly waved his hand and said, "Master Ren, you're too kind. Please speak!"

Ren Shaoyang laughed and said, "You know the weapons in the Han family's armory like the back of your hand, do you know them very well?"

"Of course!" Han Bai patted his chest. "I remember everything, from its size and origin to its weight."

Ren Shaoyang nodded and smiled, "Okay."

He then pondered for a moment, seemingly considering his words, before slowly saying, "Brother Han, I want to make a deal with you."

"trade?"

Han Bai was taken aback. Looking at his shabby clothes, he stammered, "Master Ren, I am just a servant of the Han family. What can I do to trade with you?"

Ren Shaoyang waved his hand: "Listen to me first, then we'll see if we can make a deal."

Han Bai's face flushed red, and he stammered, "Okay, you, you go ahead."

Ren Shaoyang asked, "Brother Han, has a thick-backed sword recently appeared in the Han family's armory?"

Han Bai thought for a moment, his eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly: "Yes, a back knife has been added!" He paused, then continued, "For some reason, I have a very strange feeling every time I wipe it."

"This knife is no ordinary weapon, even though it looks unremarkable! It's just that the owner and his family haven't paid any attention to it, so I can't say anything about it."

Han Bai looked at the ever-smiling white-robed man: "Master Ren, do you know the origin of this sword?"

Ren Shaoyang smiled and said calmly, "I know."

Han Bai's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Can...can you tell me?"

Ren Shaoyang said, "Why don't you hear about the details of the transaction first?"

Han Bai exclaimed "Oh dear!" and realized what was happening: "Master Ren, please speak!"

Ren Shaoyang smiled and said, "The deal is simple. You take us into the Han family armory to see the thick-backed sword, and I will tell you its origin and teach you a sword technique." He glanced at Han Bai, who looked astonished, and said leisurely, "Don't worry, I won't take any weapons."

As soon as he finished speaking, a long sword appeared in his hand with a whoosh.

Han Bai saw Ren Shaoyang sitting on the ground, but his sword was flying through the air. After a series of lightning-fast sword moves, dust fell from the roof beams.

He looked up and stared intently, and saw two small characters carved on the roof beam: "Sword Leopard"!
"What superb swordsmanship! What incredible speed!" Han Bai murmured. "Its momentum is like a waterfall, its speed like a torrential rain—I've never seen anything like it in my life!"

Ren Shaoyang sheathed his sword and smiled, "This sword technique is called 'Sword Leopard.' Brother Han, would you like to learn it?"

study?
It means agreeing to the deal and secretly taking them to the Han family's armory.

Not learning?

This is a divine sword technique that Han Bai has never seen in his entire life. If he misses it, it will be enough to make him suffer to death!
Han Bai was extremely conflicted, his face showing a look of not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Does he agree or disagree?
