Martial Arts Crossover: It All Started with Hijacking Li Canghai

Chapter 52: A Temporary Separation for a Better Future

Recently, the martial arts world has been in turmoil, with many masters from various sects dying from their own signature techniques. Without exception, the blame has been placed on this Nan Murong, who can "use their own methods against them."

In order to investigate the truth of the matter and to temporarily avoid the limelight and clear his name, Murong Fu temporarily abandoned his identity, changed his name to Li Yanzong, and infiltrated the Western Xia Yipintang team into the Song Dynasty, hoping to secretly investigate and find the real culprit behind the scenes.

This is truly an unexpected coincidence.

If Murong Fu were to appear openly in Jiangnan at this moment, Qingyilou's intelligence network would surely allow them to easily track him down.

In this way, the leaders of Qingyi Tower would naturally realize that it is impossible for one person to appear in both Henan and Jiangnan, which are thousands of miles apart, at the same time.

Murong Fu probably never dreamed that, while he was wholeheartedly dedicated to the restoration of the Great Yan Dynasty, and even though his infiltration of the Western Xia forces was partly to clear his name, he also wanted to find an opportunity to use Western Xia to contribute to his restoration cause. Who knew he would end up with a false accusation on his head...

Therefore, they may also be able to get the help of two important right-hand men.

……

Time flies.

Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

Merchant ships traveled through prefectures and counties, eventually entering the prosperous land of Shu.

Along the way, apart from necessary resupply stops, the merchant ships did not linger and headed straight for their destination, Sichuan Prefecture.

The land of Bashu is rich in natural resources and has a rich cultural heritage.

Ruan Xingzhu's family was also located in Sichuan.

As soon as the merchant ship docked, the Ruan family's steward and a large group of workers came to greet it. They had obviously received the news in advance and were waiting here. The sailors and workers on the ship and waiting began to unload, count, and move the various supplies on the ship in an orderly manner.

After disembarking, Qin Han put his arm around Cheng Ying from behind at a spot on the dock, his face clearly showing reluctance.

"Wife, be careful when you go to Lu Family Village. I'll come to see you after I've finished my business here."

During these days on the ship, Cheng Ying and he spent every day together, and their feelings for each other grew stronger. They were inseparable and couldn't bear to part.

I had heard Cheng Ying mention before that her trip to Sichuan was just a side trip to hitch a ride on Ruan Xingzhu's merchant ship, with the main purpose of going to Lujiazhuang in Jiaxing.

Qin Han only briefly recalled Cheng Ying's life. Considering the purpose of her trip, it should now be the ten-year agreement between the Red Serpent Fairy Li Mochou and the couple Lu Zhanyuan and He Yuanjun.

When Lu Family Village is in trouble, Cheng Ying cannot stand idly by, neither morally nor logically. She has no choice but to go to Lu Family Village.

However, Qin Han also had important things to do, so the sooner they went to the Lingjiu Palace in Tianshan, the better.

Fortunately, I remember in the original story, Huang Yaoshi would come to the rescue at the last moment of the Lu Family Manor. As Huang Yaoshi's last disciple, Cheng Ying's safety should not be a problem as long as Huang Yaoshi was present. Even if Huang Yaoshi did not go, Li Mochou would not dare to kill Cheng Ying.

"Don't worry," Cheng Ying said, letting Qin Han hold her close, feeling the warmth of his chest, a blush rising on her face. "I've practiced the Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique) you taught me diligently. Besides, my master, judging by the time, should be on his way to Lu Family Manor soon. With him around, who can hurt me?"

She turned around and hugged Qin Han's waist, tilting her pretty face up with a mixture of reluctance and concern, saying, "But you, you killed one of the twelve leaders of the Green Robe Tower. The Green Robe Tower will definitely not let this go. I... I'm really worried about you traveling alone."

Her voice held a hint of expectation: "Maybe...maybe you shouldn't go to Tianshan..."

Before Cheng Ying could finish speaking, Qin Han hugged her tighter. Now that Qingyi Tower had someone to take the blame, there was no need to worry. Even if it was later found out that he was the one who did it, once he took control of Lingjiu Palace, he would see if Qingyi Tower dared to retaliate.

Feeling the warmth and softness of her body in his arms, he lowered his head and placed a kiss on her forehead.

"Well……"

Even though the two had already done more intimate things, Cheng Ying's shy personality remained unchanged in the face of Qin Han's affection. Her cheeks flushed red, making her look incredibly cute.

"Silly girl," Qin Han looked at Cheng Ying with amusement. He had already pinned the blame on Murong Fu, and the Qingyi Tower should be looking for Murong Fu instead.

He gently stroked her soft, long hair and said, "What I'm going to do is very important. You don't need to worry about the Green Robe Pavilion. Just wait for me obediently at the Lu Family Manor. I'll come to pick you up when I return from Tianshan."

"I...I understand."

Cheng Ying didn't argue. After giving herself to him, she would prioritize Qin Han's wishes in many things. Once they got married, she would definitely be a virtuous wife and loving mother.

The two embraced quietly, savoring the tenderness before parting.

Watching this scene from not far away, Ruan Xingzhu felt very complicated. She had experienced something similar before, but she had been unlucky in love.

Seeing this scene again now brings both relief that my niece has found a good husband, and a strange sense of sadness.

"Sigh, daughters really are hard to keep at home once they grow up..."

He shook his head helplessly and sighed inwardly.

These past few days on the ship, Ruan Xingzhu has been constantly subjected to the public displays of affection by Qin Han and Cheng Ying, the young couple. Now that they are about to part ways, they still have to show off their love one last time before leaving, which is really unbearable to watch.

"Ahem!"

Seeing that many people on the boat were watching the young couple, Ruan Xingzhu was afraid that it would have a bad influence on them, so she deliberately coughed twice to interrupt the lovey-dovey couple.

"Um... Ying'er, it's getting late."

Cheng Ying was interrupted by her aunt and noticed that many people were looking at them. She quickly broke free from Qin Han's arms, her face turning as red as an apple.

Qin Han, however, was thick-skinned. Seeing Cheng Ying's shy appearance, his love for her intensified. His Adam's apple bobbed, and he really wanted to keep her by his side no matter what, never to be separated from her for even a moment.

But I also know I can't.

Now that we don't even have a territory of our own, are we supposed to let Cheng Ying wander around with us?

A temporary separation is for a better future.

"wait for me."

All the words I wanted to say were summed up in these last two words.

Cheng Ying's eyes reddened slightly, and disregarding the stares of others, she took the initiative to hug him again.

Qin Han supported Cheng Ying's back and looked at Ruan Xingzhu, "Madam Ruan, thank you for taking care of me these past few days."

Ruan Xingzhu said solemnly, "Young Master Qin, you are too kind. You are a friend of the Ruan family. If there is anything the Ruan family can do for you in the future, please don't hesitate to ask. As long as it is within my power, I will do my best to help."

These words were spoken with genuine feeling.

On the one hand, it was because Qin Han saved her and Cheng Ying's lives; on the other hand, it was because she valued Qin Han's potential and character and wanted to forge a good relationship with him.

In her opinion, this person was no ordinary person!

"Thank you for your kindness, Madam." Qin Han returned the greeting politely. "I will definitely come to bother you if I need anything in the future."

At this moment, a servant from the Ruan family led over a magnificent black horse.

"Young Master Qin, your horse is ready."

Thank you for your trouble.

Qin Han thanked her, bid a final farewell to Cheng Ying, and quickly mounted his horse, squeezing his legs against its flanks.

"drive!"

The black horse neighed and carried Qin Han swiftly away from the dock.
