Martial Arts Crossover: It All Started with Hijacking Li Canghai

Night was falling.

Qin Han then emerged from the room, feeling refreshed.

Cheng Ying was so exhausted that she fell into a deep sleep and didn't want to move a single finger.

Qin Han arrived at the front hall and found Lu Liding pacing anxiously back and forth. Upon seeing him, Qin Han quickly came to greet him.

"Lord Qin, we just received news that Li Mochou's disciple, Hong Lingbo, is leading a group of people this way, seemingly to rescue someone."

"Oh?" Qin Han raised an eyebrow. "Hong Lingbo? That silly girl came to rescue people? Are you sure she's not just here to get herself killed?"

I quickly recalled the tragic woman in the original story who was used and killed by Li Mochou.

"Perfect timing! Since Master has abandoned evil and embraced good, his disciple shouldn't be left behind. It'll make a perfect pair."

Lu Liding's expression was strange. This Lord Qin really is...

They have quite an appetite.

"Then...do we need to make some preparations?" Lu Liding asked cautiously.

"No need." Qin Han gave Lu Liding a strange look. Could it be that Hong Lingbo could find a Grandmaster?

He waved his hand. "Let her bring her people in. I want to see if Hong Lingbo is as 'pragmatic' as her master."

Just then, a commotion suddenly broke out outside the door.

"Master! Master, where are you? I'm coming to save you!!"

An anxious female voice rang out, and then a group of women dressed in Taoist robes rushed into Lu Family Village.

The girl in the lead was about seventeen or eighteen years old. She was quite pretty, but her brows showed a hint of naivety and anxiety.

It was Hong Lingbo.

She was followed by a dozen or so Taoist nuns wielding long swords, looking quite menacing. It was unclear whether they were Li Mochou's disciples or extras that Hong Lingbo had found somewhere.

Upon entering the hall, Hong Lingbo saw Qin Han leisurely drinking tea in the main seat, and Lu Liding standing to the side with a strange look in his eyes.

"What have you done to my master?!" Hong Lingbo pointed her long sword and shouted sharply.

Qin Han put down his teacup and looked at Hong Lingbo with great interest.

"Your master..." He pointed outside the door, teasingly adding, "is standing outside as punishment. What, you want to go keep her company?"

"Nonsense! My master is a peerless martial artist, how could he possibly be punished by you?!" Hong Lingbo scoffed, clearly disbelieving, and angrily retorted, "Hand over my master now, or don't blame me for being impolite!"

Qin Han sighed and shook his head.

"Why does nobody believe the truth these days?"

He clapped his hands.

"Li Mochou, your disciple is coming to save you."

The sound transformed into silk threads and traveled outside the village.

A moment later, a figure walked in awkwardly.

Upon seeing this, Hong Lingbo was overjoyed: "Master! It's so good that you're alright! I knew these people couldn't do anything to you!"

He was about to rush forward when he said that.

However, Li Mochou looked at her with a complicated expression, and then did something that Hong Lingbo would never forget.

Li Mochou walked up to Qin Han and respectfully knelt on one knee.

"Your subordinate is here."

"boom!"

Hong Lingbo felt a loud bang in his head, and he was completely dumbfounded.

Master... knelt down?!

She knelt down before that young man?!

And he even calls himself a "subordinate"?!

This must be a hallucination!!

What a terrifying hallucination!!

"Master...you...what's wrong with you? Did they poison you? Did they force you?!" Hong Lingbo cried out, completely unable to accept the reality before her eyes.

Li Mochou sighed and turned to look at her foolish disciple who had always followed her and was loyal to her.

"Lingbo, do not be rude," Li Mochou said in a deep voice. "This is Lord Qin of Lingjiu Palace, and also my current master. Why don't you come over and pay your respects to the Lord!"

"Lord? Master?!" Hong Lingbo's eyes widened as if she had heard something utterly unbelievable. "Master, are you crazy? You are the Crimson Serpent Fairy! How can you acknowledge someone as your master?!"

"Shut up!" Li Mochou's face flushed with embarrassment. She didn't really know why she had agreed so easily today, but now she couldn't disobey. She said sternly, "If you dare to spout nonsense again, don't blame your master for being ruthless!"

She was genuinely afraid that Hong Lingbo would anger Qin Han.

She had taken some kind of "Heart-Eating Pill" and had personally experienced Qin Han's methods; she didn't want to watch her only disciple die in vain.

Hong Lingbo was stunned by the shout, tears welling up in her eyes. She felt extremely wronged, thinking that she had come all this way just to save him.

Qin Han found this scene quite amusing.

"Alright, stop scaring the child."

Then he looked at Hong Lingbo and beckoned, "Your name is Hong Lingbo, right? Come here."

Hong Lingbo watched Qin Han warily, thinking to herself that this man was too terrifying. She was afraid that if she went over, she would be bewitched by him. She gripped the sword in her hand tightly and stubbornly did not move.

"What? You're not even listening to your master anymore?" Qin Han said with a half-smile.

Li Mochou quickly gave Hong Lingbo a meaningful look.

Hong Lingbo gritted her teeth. Although she was extremely unwilling, she could not disobey her master's orders and could only move forward step by step.

"What are you going to do..." she asked warily.

Qin Han looked her up and down and had to admit that although Hong Lingbo was not as charming as Li Mochou, she was not as gentle and beautiful as Cheng Ying.

But its advantage lies in its youth, possessing an untamed, wild beauty that has its own unique charm.

I remember one version where Hong Lingbo really wanted to get married, but Li Mochou always interrupted her wedding attempts, causing Hong Lingbo to fail to get married even after more than ten attempts. She was a typical girl who was worried about getting married.

"His aptitude is acceptable, although he's not the brightest, but he's loyal," Qin Han commented. "Now that your master has joined my Lingjiu Palace, you, as his disciple, will naturally follow."

"From today onwards, you will be a maid of Lingjiu Palace. From now on, you will follow your master."

"No!" Hong Lingbo refused without even thinking. "I don't want to be a maid! I want to take my master with me!"

"Tsk, quite stubborn." Qin Han smiled and suddenly disappeared.

Hong Lingbo only felt a blur before her eyes, and before she could react, the long sword in her hand was already in Qin Han's hand.

A strong hand quickly grabbed her chin, forcing Hong Lingbo to raise her head.

"Little girl, do you think you have a choice?" Qin Han leaned closer to her face. "Even your master isn't a match for me. What kind of trouble do you think you can cause?"

Looking into those deep eyes so close to her, Hong Lingbo felt a sudden surge of panic, and her cheeks inexplicably flushed red.

"I...I..."

"Stop arguing with me." Qin Han released his grip and casually tossed the longsword to the ground. "I'll give you two choices. Either you behave and live a life of luxury with your master, or I'll strip you naked and throw you out right now."

"You...you are so shameless!" Hong Lingbo was filled with shame and indignation, and tears welled up in her eyes from being frightened by Qin Han.
