Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 592: Chapter 503 Provocation, Assault, Slaughter_2

”Frankly speaking, we don’t even qualify to catch a whiff here!”

”Right or wrong, Sis Sijiang?”

He looked at a group of women in a nearby camp and said with a grin.

”It’s not right, this old gal still wants to have a sniff!” A woman with enduring charm stepped forward and said with a smile.

Pei Du chuckled, ”If Sis Sijiang wants to sniff, that’s easy, I’ll take you to sniff it another day!”

As soon as he said this, the surrounding Martial Artists burst into laughter.

”Pei Hulu, what are you letting Sis Sijiang sniff? Shouldn’t you take us with you too? Haha~~”

”Scram, scram, you bunch of randy old men don’t meddle, I’ll only take Sis Sijiang!”

”Sis Sijiang, don’t go with that gourd, his belly’s full of mischief!”

”Haha~~”

The group was noisy, teasing, and ribbing Sis Sijiang.

Sis Sijiang wasn’t bothered at all and chuckled, ”Pei Du, if you can let me have a look at the Star Origin Fruit, I’ll do whatever you say!”

”Really!” Pei Du laughed lewdly.

”I, Sis Sijiang, have never gone back on my word in the worldly realms!” Sis Sijiang declared proudly, carrying the air of a chivalrous guest.

”Alright, witnesses all present, hahaha~~” Pei Du laughed loudly.

His shenanigans lightened the previously tense and solemn atmosphere, but Jing Changyuan was very dissatisfied.

While Pei Du and Sis Sijiang were flirting here, he was left out in the cold like a wooden stake, completely ignored.

”Heh, Pei Du, that’s all the ambition you’ve got, fussing over a flirtatious old woman!”

Jing Changyuan said mockingly.

The moment he spoke, the previously lively atmosphere instantly hushed.

”Jing Changyuan, who are you insulting?” Sis Sijiang’s voice was icy, her face frosty.

Jing Changyuan sneered at her, ”I’m insulting you. At your age, still posturing as a young girl, not ashamed at all!”

Sis Sijiang wasn’t really old, not even forty. Although years of cultivation had dulled her skin, her delicate features and tender eyes added to her mature charm.

Though a woman, Sis Sijiang had a good reputation in the Martial Artists’ community, known as a heroine among women.

It was the first time Sis Sijiang had ever been pointed at and scolded like this.

Sis Sijiang was absolutely furious!

”Jing Changyuan, you’re looking for death!”

Sis Sijiang shouted coldly and turned into a blur as she charged towards Jing Changyuan.

”Don’t overestimate yourself!” Jing Changyuan showed no fear, waved his sleeves, and a long sword blocked in front of him.

Clang clang clang~~

Their swords clashed, showering bright sparks.

But clearly, Sis Sijiang was no match for Jing Changyuan, and within a few exchanges, she was at a disadvantage.

Jing Changyuan sneered with mockery in his eyes, his long sword swung upward aiming straight for Sis Sijiang’s face.

The sword came fast and deviously, Sis Sijiang hadn’t expected it, and it was too late to dodge.

Just then, another sword light flew in and deflected Jing Changyuan’s long sword.

”Jing madman, let Pei have a bout with you!” Pei Du joined the battle directly.

Jing Changyuan’s eyes were filled with cold light, his sword even more fierce and unpredictable, while Pei Du’s sword moves were broad and open, as the two tangled and exchanged more than a dozen moves in just moments.

Sis Sijiang, however, retreated from the battle, her eyes ferociously fixed on Jing Changyuan.

Meanwhile, the people around were fanning the flames, still directing comments at the fighters.

”Pei Hulu, hit his weak spot.”

”What weak spot, the swordsmanship of Lingxiu Villa is too cunning and erratic, Pei Hulu, watch out for Jing madman’s viper’s strike!”

”Ah, Jing madman, why are you so weak! Why do you dodge? Go head-to-head with Pei Hulu!”

The chatter and commotion attracted everyone’s attention to Pei Du and Jing Changyuan, even Luo Jingsong was watching their fight.

Just as Luo Jingsong was sizing up the strengths and weaknesses of the two in his mind, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly spotted a familiar yet strange figure.

He thought he was mistaken at first, but looking intently, it was indeed someone he remembered.

As he looked at the person, that person was also staring at him, their gazes locked on one another.

”Brothers, charge, kill!”

Cui Kai saw Luo Jingsong, his heart tightened, without another thought, he immediately shouted.

The next moment, he led the hundreds from the Tianquan Star Hall and charged toward Luo Jingsong’s direction.

Seeing this, Luo Jingsong’s expression slightly changed, ”Cui Kai, you have quite the audacity!!”

”Traitor, meet your death!” Cui Kai shouted loudly.

Both being Hall Masters of the Seven Stars Hall, they naturally recognized each other; although they had not interacted much before, it did not prevent them from recognizing each other.

Luo Jingsong’s presence here was a surprise to Cui Kai.

He had not known that Luo Jingsong was here, and even less had he anticipated Luo Jingsong would sabotage his plan.

The burly man who had just been yelling at the Secret Martial Guards was arranged by him; by his original intention, he wanted to incite the resentment of the surrounding martial artists towards the Secret Martial Guards, then stir up a fight between the two parties, and take advantage of the chaos to destroy the Star Origin Fruit Tree.

But he didn’t expect Luo Jingsong to suddenly appear and mess up his plan.

Man’s plans are inferior to those of heaven; he had already planned to give up, but then Jing Changyuan came out to stir up trouble, and he wondered if he could take the opportunity to create chaos.

Just as Jing Changyuan and Pei Du began to fight, and he was pondering his next move, Luo Jingsong met his gaze unexpectedly.

That gaze forced him to take a stand and launch an attack.

”Kill!”

Shouts of killing erupted, all of a sudden suppressing the rowdy atmosphere with waves of shouting.

Many warriors within the valley’s camps drew their weapons and charged toward the Secret Martial Guards’ camp.

These were people arranged in advance by the Tianquan Star Hall; given that the Jianghu Martial Artists around here came from all over Da Rong, many did not recognize each other, so it was extremely easy for them to blend in.

The sudden change of events caught many off guard.

Those who were just heckling, seeing the tide turning, quickly retreated to the sidelines.

”What’s going on?”

”No clue!”

”Why did they suddenly start fighting?”

”Should we join in?”

”Don’t be stupid! Just stay put!”

A group of warriors who couldn’t grasp the situation started discussing with each other, some wanted to take advantage of the chaos to profit, some felt the situation was bad and turned to run, others adopted an indifferent attitude, as it wasn’t their concern.

Pei Du, who had been fighting with Jing Changyuan, also separated; looking around at the situation with a glum face, he turned to Jing Changyuan, ”This your doing?”

Jing Changyuan frowned and remained silent.

Pei Du ignored him, ”Mom, let’s hurry and go!”

Saying this, he grabbed Duan Si Niang’s arm and ran toward the hillside.

Blades and spears do not recognize their masters, and with a chaotic battle about to erupt, staying there would undoubtedly involve them.

Duan Si Niang glared fiercely at Jing Changyuan, hesitated no further, and quickly followed Pei Du, leaping up the hillside.

”Kill!”

By the time they reached the hillside, looking down from their high vantage point, Pei Du’s expression instantly turned grave.

”Something’s not right!”

”What’s wrong?” Duan Si Niang asked in confusion.

Pei Du said in a low voice, ”These people are unfamiliar faces!”

”Unfamiliar faces?” Duan Si Niang was even more baffled.

With so many Jianghu Martial Artists, it was absolutely impossible for Pei Du to know them all.

But most people who could come here to spectate were well-known figures in Jianghu.

Pei Du dared not claim to know them all, but he definitely recognized many.

Yet now, those who were assaulting the Secret Martial Guards’ camp were all strangers, which was obviously unreasonable.

”And it seems their strength is quite low!” Pei Du added.

Duan Si Niang also spotted the anomaly.

Low strength?

That was definitely abnormal.

Why would ordinary warriors dare to get involved in such a scene?

Was it because they thought they had too many years to live?

”Who is behind this?” Duan Si Niang asked.

Pei Du shook his head.
