Transcending Heavens: Starting with the Ancient Tomb Sect

The scorching summer sun always gives people a burning, blistering feeling.

On the road, people come and go in an endless stream.

Beside the road, there was a simple little teahouse.

Some people were rushing along with their heads down, while others, dressed in tattered clothes, stood out awkwardly in a corner outside with a broken bowl. Some were drinking tea inside, while others sat on stools inside, watching the scenery on the street.

Cursing under the cover of darkness, shouting in anger, sweating profusely, accompanied by the scorching sun and green mountains, etc.

What a vivid depiction of the myriad aspects of human life.

However, for many people, the surrounding scenery is not something they are meant to experience. Those who have the right and the time to travel and enjoy the scenery are often not the people who have become part of the scenery.

However, this scene has changed today.

On the road, two figures could be seen walking slowly towards them.

This is a man and a woman dressed in white.

One of the boys held an oil-paper umbrella, gently shielding the girl beside him from the scorching sun.

The two of them shared an umbrella...

So intimate, so bold!

Such a scene was considered utterly outrageous by passersby.

Since the rise of Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism, even those unrestrained and arrogant wanderers of the martial arts world have never been so unrestrained.

At least in public, one wouldn't be so casual.

If there are any problems, they all happen secretly.

Even with a jumble of thoughts in their minds, the group didn't let that distract them from appreciating the scenery.

Green hills and clear waters are a beautiful sight.

Handsome men and beautiful women are also part of the scenery.

The man was a handsome young man with long, dark hair tied back like a horse's mane. He was dressed in white, a style that seemed to have been modified from a Taoist robe. A slight smile played on his lips, and his eyes held a hint of a new sorrow that was both visible and indescribable.

His gentle and refined manner, coupled with his noble air, made him seem like a runaway nobleman.

With sleeves fluttering, it was as if the other person would casually splash ink and write a new poem filled with youthful sorrow.

In conclusion, combined with that altered Taoist robe, he was none other than the legendary Taoist Golden Boy.

That's how a golden boy should be.

If a problem arises, it's only a rumor that there's a problem, not the other party's fault.

And that girl in white...

Her white robes fluttered as if shrouded in light smoke and mist, making her seem both real and illusory, as if she were not of this world. The scorching summer heat could not seem to diminish the natural coolness and aloofness emanating from her.

She was so isolated from the whole world.

Her face was exceptionally beautiful, and her whole being was fair and radiant.

Between her delicate, willow-leaf eyebrows lay a hint of curiosity, and her pure, ethereal face exuded a subtle, down-to-earth charm.

It was as if a fairy had descended to earth and become tainted by the mundane world.

Her skin was as white as jade, and she was like a jade maiden. With just a gentle wipe of a handkerchief, her worldly air would be wiped away, and she would return to being a celestial fairy.

As everyone stared in disbelief, a sudden realization dawned on them.

This must be a beautiful maiden.

Moreover, she was a celestial maiden who fell to earth, losing her status, and thus became a jade maiden.

So if there's a problem, it's a problem with the term "jade girl," not with the person herself.

Regardless of how most people felt, some people at the scene couldn't resist taking out flowers and fruit to throw, but the aloofness surrounding the golden couple made them hesitate and waver.

Compared to the shock felt by ordinary people, the martial arts practitioners who were hiding their identities were even more deeply moved.

Golden couple!

This is the golden couple who have recently become quite famous in the martial arts world.

It's true that seeing someone in person is worse than hearing about them, and seeing them in person is even better than hearing about them.

This rumor is indeed true.

There are wrong names, but no wrong nicknames.

Under everyone's gaze, the golden boy and jade girl slowly walked to the roadside inn and stopped in front of the fluttering banner with the words "Tea".

Would someone like that even look for food in a place like this?

They don't believe it.

In fact, Yue Que and Xiaolongnu did not come here to drink that coarse tea.

The root cause is that Xiaolongnu doesn't drink this. She prefers to drink spring water, plain water, or preferably jade honey diluted with water.

Tea, it has to be good tea!

From inside the Ancient Tomb to outside, no matter how much she fought, Xiaolongnu never experienced any hardship while she was with Yue Que.

There was Granny Sun before, then Yue Que and Yang Guo in the middle, and now there is Yue Que.

"……Give."

Yue Que handed the oil-paper umbrella to Xiaolongnu. After she took it, Yue Que first scanned the surroundings with a patrolling gaze, and finally his gaze settled on the beggar who was hunched over in the corner outside the inn. In front of the beggar was a broken bowl.

Yue Que slowly stepped forward and stopped in front of the beggar.

Tilting his head, Yue Que stared intently at the other person, at the broken bowl.

Just when everyone present thought that the Golden Boy would show some kindness and do the other party a favor, Yue Que suddenly made a move.

He raised his leg and then kicked out.

"!!!"

Everyone felt a jolt in their hearts. Although they were very surprised, they felt that the action was just right.

The boy might be surprised, but that's how noble young men from prominent families do things.

It's already a very good thing that the other side didn't clear the street.

"???"

Xiaolongnu was equally surprised. Because of her previous chivalrous deeds, she thought Yue Que would also show kindness, but Yue Que's kick completely messed up her thoughts.

This suggests that Que'er is in a bad mood.

Little Dragon Girl neither denied it nor cared.

In her view, kicking people was like catching sparrows—just a game to be played.

But seeing the beggar's movements and posture as he dodged, Xiaolongnu understood.

It turned out to be the case.

This beggar...

He must be a member of the infamous Beggars' Sect.

Snapped!

The beggar tried everything he could, but there was no way to avoid or escape. He was kicked to the ground by Yue Que.

After falling to the ground, he lay there in extreme discomfort.

Before he could even raise his head, the white-robed golden boy before him spoke, his tone carrying an indescribable strangeness: "As I traveled, the world was on the verge of chaos, and I saw many people displaced and homeless."

"But after traveling a while, we saw far fewer real beggars, while we saw far too many of you."

A beggar is not a beggar!

What about those people?

Giving something to a beggar is not the same as giving something to the Beggars' Guild.

"Oh!"

With a sneer, Yue Que pulled an envelope from his pocket and casually tossed it into the broken bowl, saying, "Give this to your gang leader, Madam Guo."

"Just say that the golden boy and jade girl want to pay their respects to the Beggars' Sect leader, as they have important matters to discuss."

Although it's unclear who first coined the term "golden couple," Yue Que accepted it on behalf of Xiaolongnu and her companion.

Because the Orochi Gang's current codename is hard to define, it's not just in the underworld, it's already gone beyond that circle, so they have to tone it down for now and come up with a new codename.

After saying that, Yue Que ignored the three-bag disciple of the Beggars' Sect and turned to walk towards Xiaolongnu.

Then the two of them shared an umbrella and slowly walked away, heading towards Dasheng Pass.

After everyone watched the golden boy and jade girl disappear from sight, the beggar regained his breath, grabbed the envelope and hid it in his chest. Then, he picked up a bamboo pole and leaped up, using his light-footed skill to mount the horse tied to a large tree trunk not far away, and rode off.

A group of respectable people looked at each other in bewilderment at the sight. First, there was the heavy blow from the golden boy and jade girl, and then the thing that the beggar showed them.

Was that horse originally a beggar's?

It left these ordinary people feeling like they had a lump of phlegm stuck in their throats, making them feel suffocated.

Those who had shown kindness along the way were especially displeased.

"Damn it!"

"Hold!"

"A man of the martial world..."

Some people shook their heads, feeling that what had just happened was a truly absurd and ridiculous farce!

But no matter what, what happened today will stay with these people for the rest of their lives.
