Flower Stealing Master

Chapter 411: Ominous Sign

Song Qingshu couldn’t help but be startled, and finally realized that the villain in the other person’s mouth was in fact, he himself.

‘Bro, do you even have eyes? How can a face like mine be attributed to the word villain?’

Song Qingshu felt extremely depressed, but he quickly held Shui Sheng in his arms and swung out his right hand, colliding with the opponent’s palm.

Because he was worried that the force of the shock would crush Shui Sheng’s beloved horse, Song Qingshu did not dare to use all his strength. However, even so, the power of his palm was not something that ordinary masters in the world could handle.

“Huh?” There was a slight numbness in his hand, and Song Qingshu couldn’t help but sigh at the other party’s pure inner strength.

Song Qingshu was about to dismount with Shui Sheng in his arms, when suddenly the girl’s anxious voice was heard from his embrace, “Uncle Xiao, stop fighting, he is one of our own.”

“One of our own?”

A middle-aged man wearing a hat couldn’t help but stop. Then he stepped back and looked at Shui Sheng doubtfully.

“Do you know this person?” Song Qingshu also looked at Shui Sheng curiously.

“Yes.” Shui Sheng nodded, got off the horse, and pulled Song Qingshu towards the man, “Let me introduce you to him. This is my Uncle Xiao, known as the ‘Golden Sun Hero’, and this is Brother Song Qingshu…uh, he was the one who rescued me from that villain Blood Saber Elder just now.”

Shui Jian and Xiao Banhe had been tracking the Blood Saber Elder all the way before but could not find any trace of the despicable villain, so they realized that the two of them had fallen into the other party’s trick.

Therefore, they quickly turned around and came back to search the other way, and happened to see Shui Sheng being held in the arms of a man from a distance.

Shui Sheng still looked like she was crying, and she was obviously being bullied. So naturally, Xiao Banhe subconsciously regarded Song Qingshu as a vile villain.

Song Qingshu looked at the other person and thought, ‘It turns out to be Xiao Banhe, the Golden Sun Hero. It is said that he has cultivated the Hunyuan Qi to the peak. Now that I see him, it was indeed the case.’

Looking at the thick beard on his face, Song Qingshu felt a little strange, ‘I remember that in the original work “Mandarin Duck Blades”, he was an eunuch, but it sure doesn’t look like that now…’

However, Song Qingshu was not very familiar with the plot of “Mandarin Duck Blades”, so he thought he had remembered it wrong.

“Oh? It turned out to be the young hero who attempted to assassinate Kangxi.” Xiao Banhe looked at Song Qingshu in a new light, and immediately became more satisfied.

It had to be known that he was also lurking in the Forbidden City in his early years. He tried to assassinate the Qing emperor several times but failed. Later, he chose to leave the capital due to another important event, which happened to coincide with Song Qingshu’s entry into the palace, so the two of them never met each other.

“Sheng’er, where are your father and several other uncles?”

Right at that moment, another middle-aged man walked out of the woods. He had a dignified appearance, somewhat similar to Shui Dai, and had a murderous aura about him as if he were fighting on the battlefield.

“Uncle!”

Upon hearing his question, Shui Sheng immediately ran over and threw herself into his arms, breaking into sorrowful tears.

Song Qingshu on the side was secretly surprised. ‘This should be Shui Jian, one of the twelve faction leaders of the Golden Serpent Camp, the former general commander of the Ming Dynasty.’

“Sheng’er, what happened?”

Seeing Shui Sheng’s reaction, Shui Jian felt a chill in his heart and asked anxiously.

Unwilling to make Shui Sheng describe the tragic situation she had just experience, Song Qingshu quickly told the story to the others.

“Blood Saber Elder…you vile villain! I, Shui Jian, will never share the same sky with you!” Shui Jian’s expression was sad and angry at the same time, and he finally couldn’t help but cough out a mouthful of blood.

Shui Sheng wiped her tears and choked up, “Uncle, that vile Blood Saber Elder has already been killed by Brother Song.”

Shui Jian was shocked and quickly bowed to Song Qingshu, “Thank you, Young Master Song, for taking revenge for my brother!”

Song Qingshu couldn’t really make him bow down, and hurriedly reached out to support his arms, “It is the duty of every righteous person in the world to draw out their sword to help when there is an injustice, not to mention that Miss Shui and I are also friends.”

Shui Jian still tried several times, but even with all his strength, he found that his body stayed motionless and he couldn’t bow down at all. He immediately realized that his martial arts skills were far below Song Qingshu’s, and he sighed with emotion, “Fortunately, Sheng’er is fine. Fortunately, Young Master Song happened to pass by, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.”

Song Qingshu was a little bit uncomfortable with the praise. He smiled awkwardly and said, “Senior Shui, I didn’t just happen to be passing by, but I came here specifically to save them.”

“Oh, what do you mean by that?” A look of surprise suddenly appeared on Shui Jian’s face.

Song Qingshu then quickly told him the reason why he was here.

“It turns out that Young Master Song is the candidate for the Golden Serpent King nominated by Old Hero Situ,” Shui Jian suddenly realized. “Young Master Song, don’t worry. This Shui has always admired Old Hero Situ as a person. What’s more, this time you have done such a great favor to our Shui family, this Shui will definitely support you!”

“By the way, let me introduce to you the candidate we nominated. This is Xiao Banhe, who is also known as the ‘Golden Sun Hero’. Since the both of you are heroes. You can help each other when you compete for the position of the Golden Serpent King.”

Xiao Banhe smiled bitterly and said, “Brother Shui, I just exchanged a few moves with Young Master Song, and he forced me back with one hand. It’s true that the young will surpass the old.”

Song Qingshu quickly responded, “Senior Xiao’s Hunyuan Jin is quite remarkable, and the younger generation is also impressed.”

Xiao Banhe smiled slightly, but secretly shuddered in his heart, ‘Generally, people who succeed in their youth have an air of arrogance, but Song Qingshu is so humble despite his high martial arts. It seems that he has both the bravery of the King of Chu and the tact of Liu Bang, so I really have to guard against him. Fortunately, Sheng’er seems to have a very close relationship with him, and it seems that he will not become my enemy for the time being…’

The two sides chatted for a while, and Shui Jian suddenly said, “I plan to pay homage to Sheng’er’s father and uncles first, and then arrange my subordinates to bring back their remains. Young Master Song you…”

Song Qing wrote with a look of embarrassment, and answered with cupped hands, “I still have important matters to attend to, so I’m afraid I can’t accompany you back.”

Shui Jian nodded to express his understanding, “In that case, let us part ways for now. This Shui will definitely come to visit you another day and thank you for your great kindness.”

Song Qingshu said quickly, “Senior Shui does not have to act so polite, this Song will leave first.”

“Brother Song~” Shui Sheng saw that Song Qingshu was about to leave and felt quite reluctant to part with him in her heart. Even so, she took Zhao Yebai and handed the reins to his hand, “Brother Song, just use this horse to travel.”

Song Qingshu shook his head: “No, with my Qinggong, This amount of distance doesn’t matter.”

However, noticing Shui Sheng’s sad expression, he quickly approached and whispered in her ears, “Your uncle and that Master Xiao only have two horses in total. If you give Zhao Yebai to me, what will you ride later? I don’t want you to ride with another man.”

Shui Sheng’s pretty face suddenly turned red, and she couldn’t help but snap, “They are all my elders, what are you thinking about.”

“Anyway, I don’t want to see that.” Song Qingshu put the reins back in her hand again.

A strange feeling arose in Shui Sheng’s heart, and she couldn’t help but smile sweetly, “Then… well, I’ve given this horse to you anyway, so I’ll keep it for you for the time being.”

Looking at the two people whispering, not far away, Shui Jian and Xiao Banhe couldn’t help but smile at each other.

When Song Qingshu rushed all the way back to the camp, he found that Xia Qingqing had returned. Seeing the sad faces of the two women, he couldn’t help but be shocked, and asked, “Did something happen?”
