Transcending Heavens: Starting with the Ancient Tomb Sect

Chapter 121 An Unexpected Choice

His laughter was sharp and swept across the surroundings.

Within the Beggars' Sect's formation that surrounded Li Mochou and her two disciples, many disciples lost their footing due to the intense internal energy surging at close range.

Upon discovering the presence of the newcomers, the Beggars' Sect disciples immediately remembered their instructions and slowly expanded their formation, revealing a passage leading inward.

"Oh!"

"He really knows how to seize the moment."

The actions of these Beggars' Sect disciples clearly indicated to Yue Que and his group that they were simply using a large formation to surround them and had no intention of engaging in a major battle.

Seeing this, Yue Que led the Divine Condor and strolled towards his senior master Li Mochou in the center.

From afar, Yue Que spotted Hong Qigong, the Northern Beggar, who appeared to be confronting his senior master.

"So it was the famous Nine-Fingered Beggar Master Hong Qigong."

"This junior greets the senior."

Yue Que respectfully bowed to Hong Qigong as a junior, but Hong Qigong's reaction surprised Yue Que.

Oh no!

This was Hong Qigong's first thought.

Upon hearing the laughter, Hong Qigong knew that the matter elsewhere had been completed. Now that Jin Tong had arrived, it was not a good thing for Hong Qigong or the Beggars' Sect.

"No, no, I mustn't."

With a wave of his hand, Hong Qigong abandoned his intention to continue chatting with the Red Serpent Fairy. After tying his wine gourd to his waist, he continued, "This old man is just a beggar; I don't deserve the Golden Boy's praise!"

"Since everyone is at peace, let's call it a day."

After saying this, Hong Qigong didn't wait for Yue Que and Li Mochou to react. With a wave of his hand, the Beggars' Sect's formation suddenly dissipated, and he led the Beggars' Sect disciples away in a grand procession, leaving without a trace.

"???"

Yue Que walked to his senior master Li Mochou's side, observed that the three of them were alright, and then looked in the direction where Hong Qigong and the Beggar Clan disciples had disappeared, feeling completely confused.

"Senior Uncle, what does this Elder Hong mean?"

Yue Que felt that Hong Qigong acted as if he had seen a ghost when he saw him. This top-level master of the Five Greats level ran away so quickly.

Li Mochou and her two disciples were also somewhat stunned at this moment, shaking their heads to indicate that they did not know.

They originally thought that the two would at least say something when they met, but they didn't expect that the Northern Beggar would use the strategy of running away to his fullest extent.

However, seeing Yue Que's puzzled expression, Li Mochou began to exchange stories about their experiences with her junior apprentice Yue Que.

"Luckily, we walked fast!"

As Hong Qigong drank from his gourd, he led his disciples toward Xiangyang City, saying, "If this old beggar stays there any longer, something bad will definitely happen."

If the Northern Beggar's attitude towards the Red Serpent Fairy was due to his countless killings and inability to kill her in one blow, then he could only try to calm her down. Even so, Hong Qigong still had things to talk about with the Red Serpent Fairy.

How could Hong Qigong, who had always been paying close attention to the affairs of the martial arts world, not know about the actions of the Red Serpent Fairy in the martial arts world after she descended the mountain?

It's not that no one has tried to capture Li Mochou; even Huang Yaoshi, who has the best lightness skill among the Five Greats, couldn't do it, let alone an old beggar like him.

Even the Red Serpent Fairy, who had roamed the martial arts world for over a decade and left everyone helpless, could be spoken to by Hong Qigong.

-

Upon seeing the Golden Boy Yue Que, Hong Qigong immediately fled and made his escape.

You should know that Huang Rong, Huang Jing's disciple, only met the Golden Boy and Jade Girl once, chatted for a few words, and then abandoned her Jing-gege, turning the family into a ruin in a certain sense.

If Hong Qigong were to meet Jin Tong and chat for a while, who knows what this old beggar might lose!

Because Hong Qigong couldn't act like Guo Jing, pretending to be deaf and clueless.

Losing something yourself is a small matter, but losing the Beggars' Sect would be a much bigger problem.

So if you see someone like Jin Tong, just don't see him, don't talk to him, and don't pay any attention to him, and nothing will happen.

Looking back, Hong Qigong said with some concern, "I wonder how the little girl is doing."

"A golden couple, a jade girl; the jade girl who can match them must also be extraordinary."

"I hope the little girl is alright."

At this moment, the little girl Huang Rong, whom Hong Qigong had mentioned, was seeing none other than the Jade Maiden from the Golden Boy and Jade Girl duo—Little Dragon Girl.

After learning some details about the ancient tomb from Yang Guo, Huang Rong realized that she had made another big mistake when they first met.

They underestimated or even ignored this aloof, pure, and seemingly naive young woman.

The first big mistake was that he shouldn't have met any golden couples.

It now seems that this seemingly innocent girl was the one who was hiding the truth the most.

Taking a deep breath, Huang Rong greeted her with a smile, saying, "Jade Maiden, it's been a long time."

"Greetings, Madam Guo."

Xiaolongnu looked Huang Rong up and down, seemingly studying something. After Huang Rong spoke, she realized what was happening and, remembering her senior sister Li Mochou's teachings, slowly performed a junior's greeting.

"?"

Upon seeing this, Huang Rong was taken aback, wondering what was going on with this jade maiden.

Regardless, Xiaolongnu was still her master, and she shouldn't have performed this gesture. After all, when they first met, the other party hadn't even said a word.

With a slight pause, Huang Rong's gaze was finally drawn to the hairpin in Xiaolongnu's hair and her current hairstyle, and she realized what was happening.

Because Yue Que and Yang Guo were fellow disciples.

"What a golden boy!"

As the junior brother of the Golden Boy, what's going on with Yang Guo? Even Huang Rong felt it was a bit of a dragging on.

Huang Rong could only sigh in her heart.

But Huang Rong decided to accept this gift.

Huang Rong shifted her gaze slightly backward and looked at Gongsun Lü'e, who was standing obediently behind Xiaolongnu, dressed in green. She was also a very pretty young girl.

She was plump, beautiful, and graceful, with a natural and elegant air about her.

She was the epitome of a well-educated and refined young lady from a prominent family.

Both being daughters of prominent families, her own daughter, Guo Fu, showed absolutely no such air about her.

At this moment, Gongsun Lü'e stood cautiously behind Xiaolongnu, looking at her with great curiosity, her eyes filled with curiosity and exploration of the new things in the world.

This glance confirmed Huang Rong's suspicion that the other woman was a lady from a respectable family, the kind of girl who rarely went out and stayed at home.

After a moment's pause, Huang Rong suddenly asked, "Is this little girl your new apprentice, Miss Long?"

"right!"

Looking back at Gongsun Lü'e, Xiaolongnu nodded in confirmation, "She is my recently accepted disciple."

At this point, Xiaolongnu gave a subtle signal with her eyes.

Upon seeing this, Gongsun Lü'e quickly stepped forward and respectfully gave a deep bow to the legendary female strategist Huang Rong:

J

"Junior Gongsun Lü'e pays respects to Senior."

So her name was Gongsun Lü'e!

Huh? You guys!!!

Huang Rong wondered where the Gongsun family was, but after seeing the young girl's generous gift, and remembering that she had just received a gift from Xiaolongnu, she was taken aback and could only search her clothes first. Finally, she took off a jade bracelet from her wrist and gave it to the girl as a greeting gift.

Upon seeing this, Gongsun Lü'e glanced at her master, and after seeing Xiaolongnu nod in acknowledgment, she accepted the gift from Huang Rong as an elder.

"Oh~"

Huang Rong nodded upon hearing this, and then asked, "Did you get the little girl's parents' consent?"

Little Dragon Girl nodded, then shook her head, and replied, "She is an orphan."

,

Huang Rong opened her mouth, but then realized she shouldn't have asked that unnecessary question.

Before I asked, my heart was in my throat, but now that I've asked, it's all over.

Another invincible person without parents.

Just then.

That sharp, unyielding laugh rang out.

Xiaolongnu knew there was no need to continue the conversation, so she took the package from Gongsun Lü'e's back and handed it to Huang Rong. Under Huang Rong's questioning gaze, Xiaolongnu said earnestly, "This was entrusted by Yin Zhiping of the Quanzhen Sect to Que'er to give to Yang Guo. Since we haven't seen Yang Guo, I'm giving it to you."

"Let's go." After saying this, Xiaolongnu called to Gongsun Lü'e, then turned and left without uttering a single unnecessary word.

Gongsun Lü'e smiled and gave Huang Rong a farewell smile, then followed her master and left.

As they walked, Xiaolongnu whispered to herself and her disciple Gongsun Lüe, "Next time you meet a stranger, don't casually reveal your name."

"?" Gongsun Lü'e looked puzzled.

"It was your senior brother who said it," Little Dragon Girl added.

Gongsun Lü'e suddenly realized and exclaimed, "Oh!"

After watching Xiaolongnu and her disciples leave, Huang Rong opened the package and blushed immediately upon seeing what it contained.

Why would the Quanzhen Sect send this?

wrong!

Shouldn't the Quanzhen Sect be supporting Guo Jing? How could they give it to Yang Guo?

Soon, Huang Rong recalled what Xiaolongnu had just said and immediately understood what it meant.

"What a fine Quanzhen Sect!"

"What a perfect couple!"

Huang Rong sighed, thinking to herself: She, Huang Rong, really had to accept this gift.

Carrying her pack, the female strategist stood there, looking up at the sky and at the pair of white eagles still circling in the sky, remaining silent for a long time.

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

Huang Rong met Guo Jing and his party.

Seeing that only Yang Guo was seriously injured and everyone else was fine, Huang Rong breathed a sigh of relief.

Huang Rong was especially pleased to see her daughter Guo Fu supporting Yang Guo so affectionately. But why did her daughter always turn away from her and not want anyone to see her?

When Huang Rong walked over to her beloved daughter Guo Fu, she was stunned when she saw Guo Fu's current appearance.

Because Guo Fu's image in my eyes at this moment is really too strange.

"???"

Huang Rong was stunned for a moment before asking, "Who are you?"

"I'm the Dragon Hero now!" Guo Fu deliberately spoke in a rough, low voice, pointing to Yang Guo whom she was supporting, and said, "He's your precious daughter, Guo Fu!"

Looking at Guo Jing, he was speechless; Yang Guo looked helpless; and the Wu brothers looked listless.

The one who can break through the allure of a goddess is often the goddess herself.

After Jing-gege came over and whispered the whole story in her ear, Huang Rong finally realized what had happened and looked at her daughter speechlessly.

Under the combined influence of her own emotions and Yang Guo's special constitution, Guo Fu did something quite rude, something even Huang Rong, in her youth, hadn't dared to do.

Feeling too ashamed to show her face, Guo Fu originally wanted to use Yang Guo's mask, but unfortunately the mask was destroyed, so she had no choice but to make a unique option.

She gathered her loose hair in front of her and used it to create a special mask for herself.

This is the precious daughter Guo Fu that Huang Rong is seeing now.
