All Heavens: A Role-Playing System Starting from Tianlong

Chapter 89 Palm Force Breaks Through Barrier

"This—" Azhu and Abi exchanged a glance, unsure how to respond.

Of the four lords of the Murong family, some are still within the territory of Suzhou.

But this old man Zhang is clearly looking for trouble with my young master. If we lead him to meet the four manor lords, a conflict between the two sides is inevitable.

If this old man Zhang's martial arts skills are superior, the four manor lords might be in danger; if the four manor lords gain the upper hand, they are unwilling to see their benefactor, who just saved them, get hurt.

Zhang Cheng could see that the two were in a dilemma, so he didn't force them.

He pointed to Li Qiushui and said, "This Sister Li is a relative of the Miss Wang you just mentioned. She has come to Suzhou to find her relatives."

She simply didn't know the exact location of Wang Family Manor in Taihu Lake. Did the two young ladies know? If so, please show them the way.

Azhu and Abi exchanged a glance, their confusion growing.

The girl dressed in peasant clothes called herself "Grandma" as soon as she opened her mouth; the middle-aged man who saved them called the other young girl "Sister Li".

The exact generational relationship between these three individuals is truly baffling.

Fortunately, the other party's request was not difficult to fulfill. The woman surnamed Li looked exactly like Miss Wang, and her aura was even more terrifying than that of Madam Wang, so it seemed that her claim of searching for relatives was not unfounded.

Since that's the case, it would be good to show her the way.

After exchanging glances, A'Zhu spoke up, "We do know the location of Wang Family Manor. Since the three of you are looking for your relatives, we are willing to lead the way."

Upon hearing this, Li Qiushui immediately said, "In that case, thank you both very much. Why don't we set off immediately and bring you back after we arrive?"

Her biggest concern right now is her daughter's situation, and seeing that Azhu and the other person have agreed, she doesn't want to wait a moment longer.

Just then, a middle-aged man stepped forward from the west side. "Young lady, please wait."

He took a deep breath, clasped his hands in a fist and said, "You are a relative of the Wang family of Gusu, and everyone knows about the relationship between the Wang family and the Murong family."

"If you take these two women to the Wang family's residence and hide away, never to return, and we don't know the location of the Wang family's manor, how can we possibly find these two young ladies again, given how vast Taihu Lake is?"

If he could, he would rather not provoke Zhang Cheng and the other two. But since it concerned the death of his mentor, even though he knew he was no match for them, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and speak up to stop them.

Just as this man had expected, Li Qiushui's face darkened as soon as he finished speaking.

"If you have any doubts, you may follow me on your own. Don't waste my time."

With a casual wave of her hand, surging true energy burst forth like a tide, pushing everyone in the hall backward. A group of people were squeezed together and pressed against the wall, unable to move.

"Sect Leader, let's go."

Zhang Cheng nodded.

Li Qiushui didn't want to waste a moment longer. She picked up Azhu and Abi, one in each arm, and asked, "In which direction are the boats used to travel in and out of your manor moored?"

Abi was startled by the sudden action and instinctively pointed in a direction. Li Qiushui immediately rushed out, with Zhang Cheng and Tong Lao following closely behind.

Abi then realized what was happening and exclaimed urgently, "No, Miss Li! Madam Wang doesn't like outsiders coming to the island. If Azhu and I are caught coming to the island for no reason, we'll have our hands and feet chopped off! If you bring so many people to the island, Madam Wang will be furious!"

"It's alright." Li Qiushui continued walking. "Just lead the way."

Seeing that she couldn't persuade her, Abi turned to Azhu, hoping her sister could help her make a decision.

But A'Zhu's mind wasn't on that at all. She was secretly assessing the true strength of Zhang Cheng and the other two.

Although she couldn't understand the martial arts level of Tong Lao and Li Qiushui, she knew from their unpredictable methods just now that they were no ordinary people.

She thought to herself: Even if her young master encountered someone like that, he might not be able to gain the upper hand. What did Lady Wang mean to them?

Right now, there's no need to worry about Madam Wang. What we should be concerned about is what to do if these three people clash with the young master.

Just as they were pondering this, a tall, middle-aged man walked towards them. He was wearing a gray cloth robe, had a thin face, and was holding a man dressed as a shop assistant in his hand.

A'Zhu had a bad feeling.

This was because the man was none other than Bao Butong, the third-ranked master of Jinfeng Manor among the four great generals under the Murong Clan of Gusu.

This person has an eccentric personality and loves to argue with others. He often gets into conflicts with strangers, let alone these three people who have come to cause trouble for the Murong family.

Li Qiushui also recognized the newcomer. She turned to Abi, who had spoken earlier, and asked, "Do you know that person?"

"That man is Brother Bao from Jinfeng Manor."

"Okay, then I won't kill him."

As soon as Li Qiushui finished speaking, she suddenly stopped and gently tossed Azhu and Abi into the air. Then she struck out with a palm.

Bao Butong felt an overwhelming force of palm strike rushing towards him. He instinctively tried to dodge, but it was too late. The palm struck him squarely in the chest, sending him tumbling backward.

Li Qiushui pulled her palms back, her palm force as fine as silk threads, drawing Bao Butong and the Xixia guide who had been captured by the other party into her hands.

She threw the two men at Zhang Cheng, who caught them.

Only then did Azhu and Abi fall to the ground, and Li Qiushui picked them up again.

Still shaken, Abi stammered, "Miss Li, what are you doing?"

"The man he captured is my subordinate," Li Qiushui said calmly. "Don't worry, I didn't hit him hard. Your Third Brother Bao will recover in time. Continue giving directions."

Guided by Abi, the group arrived at a small pavilion. The boats that the Murong family usually used to travel in and out were hidden under this pavilion.

The only one still empty-handed, the old woman, brought out a small boat and helped everyone sit down.

Seeing that Abi still seemed worried about Bao Butong's injuries, Li Qiushui casually tossed her a pill.

"Give it to him, and his injuries will heal quickly."

Abi did as instructed and put the pill into Bao Butong's mouth. Bao Butong's complexion quickly regained its color, but he remained unconscious and did not wake up.

Li Qiushui urged, "Alright, he's fine now. Miss Abi, please continue giving directions."

Abi responded and handed Bao Butong to Azhu to look after, while she prepared to get up and help Li Qiushui row the oars.

Li Qiushui shook her head: "You can sit here and give directions. Hold on tight to the hull and don't fall overboard."

Abi pointed out the direction for her. Li Qiushui turned around and thrust out with her palm, her inner force surging, and the small boat cut through the water like an arrow and sped away.

Zhang Cheng sat on the boat, idly watching the scenery of Taihu Lake.

Suddenly, the old woman approached him and secretly transmitted her voice, "Sect Leader, tell me honestly what exactly happened."

How come I didn't know that my junior sister had any relatives with the surname Wang in Suzhou?

Zhang Cheng glanced at her and replied telepathically, "Probably a relative I don't contact often."
