Looking at his imposing manner, Yue Hongling thought it was a high-level bandit from the mountain stronghold, maybe even the leader.

But when the big man approached, she widened her eyes, her small mouth slightly open, and was speechless.

Zhao, Zhao Changhe?

This Zhao Changhe with a beard and scars on his face... looked so unfamiliar.

Zhao Changhe urged the Blood Slaughter Technique to fly at full speed, and found that although he had not learned any light skills, his speed was indeed much faster, but it was also easy to get tired. The mountain stronghold was relatively close to Zhang Village, and it would take about ten minutes to run there, but he was already panting.

He stopped in front of Luo Qi, sweating profusely, wanting to say something, but was too out of breath to speak.

Yue Hongling's expression looked quite cute...

Snowflakes fluttered, and the atmosphere was quiet for a moment. Luo Qi behind Zhao Changhe tilted his head.

Yue Hongling's surprised expression slowly faded, and she became somewhat indifferent. "So, you are actually in the North Nang Branch. I was kept in the dark and never thought of it."

"When I first heard the news, did you go to Master Xue to demand someone?" Zhao Changhe asked.

"At that time, I thought you were dead." Yue Hongling did not hide her words. "I regretted sending the innocent young man who had just been rescued from the wolf's den into the tiger's den. I could have taken you away. You once wanted to worship me as a teacher, but I was selfish and left you in Luo Family Village... When I thought you were dead, I was angry and regretful for a moment, which is not worth mentioning to outsiders. I don't know if I am a match for Xue Canghai, but I know that if I don't go to demand an explanation, my heart will not be at ease."

Sure enough.

The Chaos Chronicles shone in the night sky, and Yue Hongling chased Xue Canghai for thousands of miles... that battle was really for Zhao Changhe.

"Afterwards, you must have heard about the murderer Zhao Changhe. What do you think? Do you regret sending this scoundrel to Luo Zhenwu and causing harm?" Zhao Changhe sighed.

Yue Hongling looked at him quietly for a while and sighed slightly. "No, I haven't. I heard about what you said at the time of the incident and knew that Luo Zhenwu was behind Zhao Village. You were seeking revenge. So I thought you followed the Blood God Sect out of helplessness and shouldn't have gone there. I have been looking for the Blood God Sect's hiding places I once heard of these days, hoping to take you out... but I didn't expect you to be in North Nang."

Zhao Changhe's throat moved, and he whispered, "Thank you."

Luo Qi looked at them from behind and felt that if he were Zhao Changhe, he would indeed be moved, but unfortunately he was not Zhao Changhe. Now he felt that Yue Hongling was even more hateful.

You are not even familiar with this man, why are you so loyal? Are you not responsible for his lost soul?

But Yue Hongling said, "But now it seems that you are doing well? You seem to have mastered the Blood Slaughter Technique... in just a month..."

Zhao Changhe whispered, "If I don't learn demonic techniques, I won't be able to protect myself."

Yue Hongling said, "If that's all... you haven't fallen too deeply into the demonic way yet, and you can still turn back. After some time, no one will care so much about the wanted order. If you hide your identity and live a normal life, you can still live like an ordinary person.""Using a false name?" Zhao Changhe suddenly laughed, "Yue Jie... Yue Miss, I won't hide it from you. Leaving aside whether I can turn back now, I don't want to use a false name. Zhao Changhe came to this world not to wander in the countryside."

The killer, Zhao Changhe!

Yue Hongling thought of these six words.

Did that innocent young man really die in just a month? No, he was never an innocent young man.

So when they met again in the martial world, she didn't hear him call her "sister".

"So... is this the reason you came to help the bandits today?" Yue Hongling's eyes gradually sharpened, "Are you going to say that you had no choice but to do it because you were in a dangerous situation?"

Zhao Changhe calmly replied, "No, it's because she's behind me."

Luo Qi couldn't help but smile.

Yue Hongling couldn't tell the gender of "TA", but she thought Zhao Changhe was loyal to his friends. "Is this person your friend?"

Zhao Changhe said, "We rely on each other for life and death."

Luo Qi became even more smiley.

Yue Hongling was silent for a moment, and whispered, "This person hasn't hurt anyone, and the women in the village are safe... You can go now... We had a past, but now we are strangers. Let's just say that the young man I've been looking for this past month is dead. If I encounter evil in the future, even if it's him, I won't show mercy."

After speaking, she mounted her horse and was about to leave.

She had traveled far and wide in wind and rain for a month, looking for that young man. Even this trip to Beiping was to try her luck... but she didn't expect to see him like this again. He stood in front of her to protect someone else, and they almost drew their swords against each other.

Even Luo Qi felt a little regretful at this moment, looking at her red dress, feeling a difficult-to-express melancholy.

But then Zhao Changhe raised his voice, "Miss Yue, some things are not as you imagine them to be. For example, this Zhang Village has a bad reputation, no less than Luo Zhenwu. My brothers have found a lot of evidence beforehand, so you don't need to worry about this matter. As for other things..."

Yue Hongling turned her horse's head to look at him, wanting to see what else he had to say.

Zhao Changhe paused, then suddenly laughed, "When we meet again in the martial world, I probably won't be able to call you 'sister', because I asked around and found out that you're actually two months younger than me."

Yue Hongling: "..."

Zhao Changhe smiled, "But we may not be strangers... I've always been grateful that the first person I saw in this martial world was the righteous and chivalrous Yue Hongling. No matter what impression this world gives me, my heart will always be in the martial world."

Yue Hongling's eyes were a little surprised, and she suddenly laughed and rode away, "Then I'll wait and see how the world-famous Zhao Changhe fares in the martial world, after all, people say he's the one who created chaos. "

"The chaos was already there." Zhao Changhe calmly replied, "I just opened the first page of the Chaos Chronicles."

This was quite a statement, and not only Yue Hongling, but even Luo Qi looked at him as if they had just met, wanting to pat him on the shoulder and say "not bad, you have some culture", but they held back.Zhao Changhe felt a bit of a literary atmosphere when facing Yue Hongling...but Yue Hongling herself was not a cultured person, but a typical Jianghu person who had barely read any books.

It's really strange.

Yue Hongling wanted to say something, but felt that there was nothing to say. At this point, it's better to just act and not say too much.

But as they rode away, the distant sunset suddenly burned like fire, illuminating half the sky before quickly fading away as the sun set and darkness fell.

Yue Hongling frowned and whispered, "Zhuque...she's also come to Beiping? What secrets are hidden here..."

Zhao Changhe suddenly shouted, "Miss Yue."

Yue Hongling turned around and heard Zhao Changhe ask, "Miss Yue, as someone who travels the Jianghu, do you know where the formation eye is usually located if it's the formation of the Seven Mansions of the Azure Dragon?"

"It's usually in the Heart Mansion," Yue Hongling casually answered before riding away.

Yue Hongling was not a reckless person. With her strength, if she was blocked by the Zhuque Venerable, she would most likely be in trouble.

She was only in the forefront of the Qianlong List, while the Zhuque Venerable was...

On the Di List.

That was the top master that everyone in the world knew.

Watching Yue Hongling disappear into the night, Zhao Changhe finally turned around and looked at Luo Qi with a burning gaze.

This novel is available on "pawread dot com".

Luo Qi also looked back at him with a burning gaze.

For his own sake, Zhao Changhe had almost broken ties with Yue Hongling...

The Jianghu in his dreams, the female knight in his dreams...paled in comparison to Luo Qi.

To be honest, no one could predict Yue Hongling's thoughts. Their relationship was nothing to speak of, and it was actually Zhao Changhe who owed her a favor. If she was really disappointed, it wouldn't be strange for her to draw her sword and attack Zhao Changhe. He was basically putting his life on the line in front of her.

Luo Qi felt warm in her heart. She wondered if Zhao Changhe was going to say something nice that would make her happy, maybe even hold her while they slept that night.

But instead, Zhao Changhe spoke up, "Zhuque has arrived. She's probably here to oversee the excavation of that secret. We need to act tonight, there's no time to waste."

Luo Qi's face turned pale and she bit her lip tightly, feeling strangely surprised.
