Duan Yu continued, "Brother, how about you call me 'Brother Xian' from now on?"

It was just a form of address, so Qiao Feng didn't ask any further questions and nodded, saying, "Okay, my good brother."

Tang Bohu breathed a sigh of relief. If he had also become sworn brothers, the title of "second brother" would have been fixed.

He suggested, "To celebrate your sworn brotherhood, how about we go to Songhelou Restaurant for another meal?"

"Great suggestion!" Qiao Feng waved his hand and said, "Let's go."

Tang Bohu and Duan Yu followed together.

Unfortunately, they encountered Beggar Clan disciples on the way and were told that two men and two women were causing trouble in Xingzi Forest, and that they were Murong Fu's men from Gusu.

They couldn't drink the wine then, and the three of them set off for the apricot grove.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Zhang San Niang had successfully refined her cultivation over the past six months.

"Alas, what a pity, I couldn't break through." Zhang Sanniang sighed, then looked at Lin Zhu, "I really envy you, you became a Grandmaster in one go, while I am still just a hair's breadth away from the Grandmaster realm."

Wang Yuyan comforted her, "I don't even have any martial arts skills!"

Lin Zhu rolled her eyes at her, "Who told you to waste your talent for the past ten years? You inherited such good aptitude, and you didn't even cherish it."

"Oh, who did Yu Yan inherit her talent from?" Zhang San Niang asked with some curiosity.

"I can't say for now," Lin Zhu shook his head. "Third Sister will know later."

Zhang San Niang couldn't stand the title "Sister San Niang" and pulled Lin Zhu to her side. "What 'Sister San Niang'? It sounds awful. Either call me 'Sister' directly, or call me Sister Yu."

"Yes, yes, you can't call me by my name directly. Just call me Sister Yan." Wang Yuyan smiled innocently.

It was just a form of address, so Lin Zhu didn't dwell on it. He cupped his hands in greeting and said, "This junior brother greets Sister Yu and Sister Yan. Is this acceptable?"

Zhang San Niang covered her mouth and chuckled, placing her hands on her left hip and slightly squatting down, saying, "San Niang greets Sister Yu Yan and Brother Ren Qian."

Wang Yuyan followed suit, saying, "Yuyan has met Sister Yu and Brother Renqian."

Just as the two women were having a good time, a servant outside the courtyard called out loudly, "Miss, I have something important to ask of you."

Zhang San Niang's expression turned solemn, and she said calmly, "Enter!"

A servant came in, bowed, and said, "Miss, it seems the Beggars' Guild meeting in Xingzilin has started ahead of schedule. They say some of the Murong family's subordinates are causing trouble, and Chief Qiao is on his way."

"What? Do you know who they are?" Wang Yuyan asked anxiously.

The servant shook his head and said, "I don't know, I only know that there were two men and two women."

Wang Yuyan subconsciously said, "It should be Azhu and Abi, as well as Brother Bao and Brother Feng. My cousin might also be here. What should we do? Is it too late?" She was a little anxious.

Zhang Sanniang said, "This place is more than ten miles away from the apricot grove. If we use our lightness skills to get there, we should be able to make it in time."

"But I don't know martial arts!" For the first time, Wang Yuyan realized how important martial arts were.

Lin Zhu thought for a moment, then said helplessly, "Can I carry you on my back?"

"Is it okay?" Wang Yuyan's eyes lit up, she seemed very willing, but she was pretending to be reserved.

"If you're hesitating, then forget it." Lin Zhu said, and was about to sit down again.

"No, we'll have to trouble Renqian, little brother." Wang Yuyan looked at Lin Zhu with pleading eyes, her appearance incredibly cute.

Lin Zhu was just teasing Wang Yuyan. Seeing her pitiful look, he leaned down slightly and said, "Come on up."

Wang Yuyan lay down on it with a big smile.

Zhang San Niang said enviously, "Sister Yu Yan, I really envy you."

Lin Zhu said, "If Sister Yu wants, I'll carry you on my back when we get back." With that, he lifted Wang Yuyan's long legs and carried her on his back.

The three points of contact on her back are quite noticeable, which suggests that Wang Yuyan is a woman with many merits.

"Then I won't be polite, sister!" Zhang San Niang said with anticipation. She had never experienced being carried on the back of a beautiful woman before!

Lin Zhu moved his feet and used the Lingbo Weibu technique, taking a step that covered several zhang in one stride, his speed was incredibly fast.

Zhang San Niang followed closely behind, as light as a swallow, not much slower than Lin Zhu who was carrying Wang Yuyan.

The three of them hurried towards the apricot grove.

Although it was a distance of more than ten miles, it took less than fifteen minutes.

The apricot grove was full of apricot blossoms. When the three arrived, they heard the clanging of weapons. People were fighting, and the battle was fierce.

"A fight has broken out?" Wang Yuyan exclaimed, looking ahead.

Chapter 26 In the Apricot Grove

"Let's go in and take a look." Lin Zhu gently put Wang Yuyan down, and the three of them walked into the apricot grove side by side.

"Who goes there?" A Beggar Clan disciple, holding a dog-beating stick, instinctively stopped them.

Zhang San Niang cupped her hands and said, "I, Zhang San Niang, along with my two younger brothers and sisters, have come to witness the Beggars' Sect assembly."

The Beggars' Sect disciple was stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening and quickly lowered his hand. "So it's Lady Yu in person. Please!"

After the three entered the apricot grove, his gaze remained fixed on it, slightly unfocused.

Wang Yuyan looked up and whispered to Lin Zhu, "It's Fourth Brother Feng."

Lin Zhu pointed to where A Zhu and the others were and said, "Look there."

Wang Yuyan's eyes lit up. "Third Brother Bao, Azhu, and Abi. My cousin isn't here."

"It's Miss Biao!" Azhu and Abi were about to step forward to greet her.

Bao Butong reached out to stop them, his words muffled as he said, "What are you doing? Didn't you see that sissy next to Miss Biao?"

“But that’s Miss Biao.” Abi hesitated.

Azhu glanced at Bao Butong, then pulled Abi back, "Let's not go over there."

Wang Yuyan didn't think too much about it and walked over with light steps.

Lin Zhu and Zhang San Niang followed.

"What, you don't want those remaining teeth either?" Lin Zhu looked coldly at Bao Butong.

Wang Yuyan was taken aback for a moment and asked, "Renqian, do you know Brother Bao?"

Bao Butong snorted coldly and turned his head away.

Lin Zhu said, "He has a foul mouth, and I beat him so badly that he lost half of his teeth."

Wang Yuyan hesitated, "Brother Bao can be a bit rude with his words, but half a tooth..."

Azhu and Abi looked at Wang Yuyan with reproach, thinking to themselves, 'Miss, whose side are you really on?'

Because of Lin Zhu's strength, they dared not speak recklessly.

Zhang Sanniang said, "If it were me, I would knock all your teeth out." Her stance was quite firm.

"Sister Yu!" Wang Yuyan tugged at Zhang Sanniang's hand.

Seeing this, Zhang San Niang didn't say anything more.

"Wait!" In mid-air, on the apricot tree, Feng Bo'e swept away Elder Chen, who was fighting him, with a single slash.

"What, are you going to admit defeat?" Elder Chen looked at him coldly.

“No,” Feng Bo said. “My third brother had half his teeth knocked out. Now that the culprit has arrived, I want to see who it is.”

"Oh! Bao Butong, with feces in his mouth, has finally been taught a lesson. But why didn't they knock out all his teeth?" Elder Chen said without any politeness.

"Let me see which hero has rid the martial arts world of this great scourge."

"You!" Feng Bo was so angry he almost attacked again, but he first looked in the direction of Lin Zhu. "That brat, do you dare to come up and fight?"

Bao Butong quickly stopped him, saying, "Fourth brother, you are no match for her."

"I don't believe it!" Fengbo Edao pointed at Lin Zhu, "This person looks so effeminate, how could he be..."

Before he could finish speaking, there was a loud "smack!"

The taste of blood spread in my mouth, and when I spat it out, three teeth were gone.

Everyone was shocked; what a brilliant hidden weapon technique!

Looking down at the ground, I saw a silver bean.

"A lesson learned," Lin Zhu said calmly, a cold glint in his eyes.

Feng Bo'e was stunned for a moment, then reached up and wiped the corner of his mouth, cold sweat breaking out on his back.

If that had been aimed at his forehead, he would be dead by now. He wouldn't have even seen where that silver bean came from.

"Thank you for your mercy, sir. I am no match for you." Feng Bo'e was more pragmatic than Bao Butong.

"Just don't follow Bao Butong's example in the future," Lin Zhu said, then ignored him.

Elder Chen swallowed hard, then looked at Feng Bo'e, "Can you still fight?"

"Why not?" Feng Bo'e drew his knife and was about to attack.

Just then, Qiao Feng's voice rang out, "Our Beggars' Sect elders would never take advantage of someone in distress."

Everyone turned to look and saw three people walking in from outside the apricot grove. The one in the lead walked with his head held high and his posture was upright. He was obviously a strong man from the north.

The other two were very polite and refined, creating a stark contrast.

"Your subordinate greets the gang leader!"

The Beggars' Sect disciples all paid their respects.

Qiao Feng clasped his hands in greeting and said, "Greetings, brothers!"

"So it was Chief Qiao in person. Feng Bo'e has met him."

"Greetings, Mr. Feng Si." Qiao Feng cupped his hands in greeting to Feng Bo'e in the tree, then said, "Elder Chen, please come down."

"Yes, Chief!" Elder Chen didn't even glance at Feng Bo before leaping down.

Zhang San Niang looked at Qiao Feng and asked in a low voice, "Is this the so-called Qiao Feng of the North and Murong of the South? He is indeed heroic and awe-inspiring."

Qiao Feng turned his head and immediately saw Lin Zhu, Wang Yuyan, and Zhang Sanniang. These three were too eye-catching.

"I, Qiao, greet you all. Are you also from the Murong family?"
