[The Duke's Heir (Gold): His reputation for chivalry spreads extremely quickly; he has a friendliness rating of 40 upon first meeting anyone and receives 800 taels of pocket money daily.]

As expected of the Golden Legend, putting aside the money, the friendship level is definitely a powerful tool for making friends!

The outskirts of Baoding Prefecture.

Lu Ming's lightness skill was as swift as drifting clouds and mist, and in just a month or so, he had mastered it to its peak. Now, after returning to the workshop, his skill had gained even more of its ethereal quality.

A fighting sound came from below. A group of beautiful women were being attacked by a group of strangely dressed people, and there were some corpses by the roadside.

"Hehe, what a beautiful young lady! Later, I'll let you taste what it's like to be a woman!"

An unassuming man easily deflected the incoming sword and sent the two women flying with a backhand strike. Had he not held back, he probably would have killed them.

One of the women, dressed in a light purple, fitted outfit, had a tall and upright figure but appeared somewhat mean. Her appearance was quite pretty, but her eyes and brows always carried an air of arrogance. Her eyebrows were slightly raised, her expression haughty, and her lips were thin, suggesting a sharp tongue.

"Bah! You lecherous scoundrel, take this!"

"Haha, so what if I, Qiu Du, am a womanizer! Today, none of you from the Emei Sect will escape. Even if your master, Abbess Miejue, comes, I'll make her bloom again!"

Qiu Du's smile grew even wider. As the apprentice of Yi Ku, who ranked ninth on the Weapon Ranking, and having joined the Money Gang to commit evil deeds, he had developed a personality that didn't care about anyone.

Those who could defeat him did so out of respect for the Green Demon Hand Yi Ku; those who couldn't were naturally killed by him.

Enraged, Ding Minjun, despite her internal injuries, roared, "Shameless scoundrel! You're so ugly, how did your parents even give birth to you? They should have choked you to death in the chamber pot!"

These words made Zhou Zhiruo look at her in surprise. She knew that her senior sister was sharp-tongued, but she didn't expect her to say such harsh words.

Qiu Du grinned maliciously, his already ugly cheeks puffing up like a toad: "Very well, I've decided. After taking your virginity mark, I'll hang you naked outside the city gate and give your Emei Sect a good humiliation!"

"you!"

Ding Minjun took two steps back, a hint of fear in her eyes. She was just too sharp-tongued; she couldn't stand someone so ugly spouting nonsense at her. "Zhiruo, what are you standing there for? Go get him! Kill him!"

Zhou Zhiruo: ? ? ?

I'm going to kill Tang Sanzang and his disciples? Really?!

Zhou Zhiruo wore a light blue silk dress with a plain silk sash around her waist, her figure slender and elegant. Her appearance was exquisitely beautiful, her brows gentle yet sorrowful, her skin as white as snow, and she often wore a jade hairpin in her hair. She was not heavily made up, yet she possessed a natural charm.

Before she could react, Qiu Du had already knocked her unconscious. Turning to look at Ding Minjun, he gripped the sword blade tightly and twisted it into a pretzel shape. The force of his internal energy made Ding Minjun's arm ache, and she quickly released the hilt.

Qiu Du stepped forward and subdued Ding Minjun, then took out a bottle of medicine, poured half of it down her throat, and tossed her aside. He then grabbed the unconscious Zhou Zhiruo and drugged her in the same way.

"hey-hey!"

Ding Minjun lay on the ground, her palms supporting her weight, coughing repeatedly as if trying to vomit: "What did you feed me?!"

Qiu Du rubbed his hands excitedly, his ugly face covered in bluish birthmarks looking particularly ferocious: "Of course it's good stuff, the so-called 'Ecstasy Powder' that even stone women can 'bloom'! Don't rush, you filthy bitch. We have plenty of time to have fun. I guarantee you'll die right after you're done!"

"brute!"

Ding Minjun was both shocked and furious. She hadn't expected the other party to be so despicable as to drug her! "When my master arrives, you'll die too. Now give me the antidote!"

"Whether that old nun, Miejue, can defeat my master is another matter entirely, hehe!"

Qiu Du wasn't worried about this at all. The meticulous plan was aimed at the Emei Sect. He wouldn't have come here if it weren't for the few beauties around.

The drug took effect quickly; Ding Minjun's pale cheeks turned bright red, and her body felt inexplicably hot. She knew it was working, and with her remaining strength, she thought of ending her own life.

Just as her vision was blurry, she saw a handsome young swordsman in white and blue robes descend from the sky and help her up.

"Are you alright, young lady?"

Turning her head, she saw a handsome face so close to hers, eyes as bright as cold stars, dressed in snow-white robes like a celestial being—what a dashing young man, seemingly even a little younger than herself. Perhaps giving herself to him wouldn't be so bad; better than that ugly hag!

Qiu Du glared at the man in front of him with great displeasure. If he was more handsome than him, he should die! If he was younger than him, he should die even more!

"Who are you!"

Lu Ming happened to be passing by. He initially didn't want to get involved, but after hearing about the Emei Sect, he stopped to watch the drama unfold. If there was any benefit to be gained, he wouldn't mind lending a hand; otherwise, forget it.

As a gentleman, he despised drugging women the most. He could deceive, coax, threaten, or entice, but he would never drug them.

"I am Ye Gucheng, Lord of Baiyun City, and I, with a sword drawn from the west!"

Qiu Du was startled at first, then realized he had been tricked, and couldn't help but curse, "You're talking nonsense! I'm still Ximen Chuixue!"

"Well, if that's the case, then let's not wait for the full moon at the Forbidden City. Let's settle this now, both by determining who's superior and by deciding their fate!"

Lu Ming was surprised that this fatso knew Ye Gucheng. He gripped the sword sheath with his right hand.

Years of fighting experience and the invisible sword energy made his hair stand on end. Qiu Du forced himself to suppress his fear and trembling, and used his internal energy to relieve his cowardice and fear.

"Who are you?!"

"I've already said it: A sword comes from the west, a celestial being descends from the heavens, Lord of White Cloud City, Ye Gucheng!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a purple aura rose from his face, and the long sword in his hand trembled. He wrapped his left arm around Ding Minjun's waist and flicked out a burst of sword energy with his right hand.

"It's all an illusion, it won't scare me! You're Ye Gucheng, and I'm still Li Xunhuan!"

Qiu Du roared in fury, his hands bulging with muscles, veins bulging up to his neck, as he used all his internal energy to turn his palms bluish-purple.

It is the Azure Demon Hand!

Once you make contact with your opponent, the collision of your bare hands will surely inject the toxins into their body, and your hands will become as hard as steel, making them difficult to be harmed by swords and blades!

Ding Minjun, still lucid, couldn't help but warn, "Young hero, be careful! This person is the disciple of Qingmo Shou Yi Ku. When he uses his internal energy in both hands, swords and blades are ineffective. We'd better hurry!"

It was only because of the "romantic playboy" that he came into play; otherwise, he would have already been mocking his savior for overestimating his abilities.

As soon as she finished speaking, her eyes widened suddenly, and she froze in place, staring at Qiu Du, who had previously beaten them to a pulp.

The purple sword light pierced through his body, splitting him and his supposedly sturdy hand in two.

If I can't beat Chu Liuxiang, can't I beat you?

What class do you belong to!

"Too weak, couldn't even withstand one move!"

Lu Ming couldn't help but pretend for a moment. When he didn't hear a reaction, he turned his head and saw Ding Minjun looking at him with an extremely ambiguous gaze.

"I need an antidote!"

"Alright, I'll reluctantly bring your junior sister along."

The antidote can be neutralized using the Purple Cloud Divine Skill and the Divine Hand Medical Technique.

But then again, if you don't cherish a great opportunity right in front of you, are you even a man?

With Ding Minjun and Zhou Zhiruo together, it's definitely a win-win situation, a huge profit!

Who among us is a genuinely good person who plays those emotional games?
