Ming Shu thought about how to get rid of her disciples and find the fake female protagonist.
She finished her food and asked the owner for a few bags of dried beef slices before swaying out of the restaurant.
The moment she stepped out of the restaurant, a commotion happened.
âCatch that little bastard, he stole my things!â
A skinny little beggar rushed out from the crowd. There was a money bag in his hand and a handsome young man was chasing after him.
No one in the crowd moved. The little beggar almost ran away, but suddenly, he was lifted up.
The little beggar waved his hands and legs.
The other party just lifted him up easily. The little beggar couldnât touch him at all.
âLearning bad stuff when you are young. How dare you steal things!â
The handsome young man rushed in front of the beggar and took the money bag in his hand. He opened it and then panted heavily as he thanked the man who helped him. âThank you, mister.â
There was a sword on the manâs back and his hair was combed neatly. His face was handsome but serious.
âDid you lose anything?â
âNo, no.â The handsome young man shook his head immediately. âYou can let go of the little beggar now.â
The man paused for a few seconds and let the little beggar go.
The little beggar wanted to run away, but was caught again by the handsome young man.
âDidnât you just him to let me go?â The little beggar looked suspicious.
The handsome guy shook his head and took out some money from the money bag. He said, âDonât steal things anymore. Take this money.â
âLeader, do you fancy that master? Do you need to us to kidnap him to become your husband?â
Ming Shuâs mouth twitched. She felt her teeth, which were chewing the dried beef slices, giving way.
Do you know who that is?
How dare you kidnap the fake female protagonistâs man! Are you looking for death!
That handsome guy was none other than Nie Shuang. She disguised herself as a man.
You all have seen Nie Shuang before, how is it that you donât recognize her? All she did was disguise herself as a man. Are you all blind or have you all lost your memory?
Our clan is going to die soon!
âLetâs go over.â Ming Shu chewed her dried beef and waved her hand liked a second-generation ancestor.
The disciples got excited and hurried over.
Ming Shu brought almost 20 people with her. They walked over threateningly and the crowd retreated.
âWho are these peopleâŚâ
âLooks like theyâre here to find trouble.â
âHurry up and stand further away. Donât let the blood spill on meâŚâ
This was the martial arts world after all. It was common for people to start a fight on the streets. Everyone was used to it.
Nie Shuang looked at them approaching with curiosity. The man was vigilant.
âYoung Miss, what is the matter?â Nie Shuang greeted her with her hands folded in front of her face.
Ming Shu hadnât said anything, but the people behind her were already preparing themselves. âLeader, who shall we get? The pretty boy seems to have poor health and his stamina must be bad. Why donât we snatch the one behind him.â
âWhy not snatch both? The leader can trade them around.â
âMakes sense!â
The crowd widened their eyes: ââŚâ
Snatching husbands!
They had seen many cases of people snatching ladies, but this was the first time someone was snatching a man. And it was two men.
Since the situation was already like this, Ming Shu went with the flow and pointed at Nie Shuang. âSnatch the pretty boy!â
Everyone looked at her weirdlyâ so this is the leaderâs taste.
Nie Shuang, the fake pretty boy: ââŚâ
There were many different clans in the martial arts world. Nie Shuang never suspected that the person in front of her was the leader of the Five Treasures Immortal Clan. After all, she thought that the leader was male.
Nie Shuang wanted to explain that she was not a man and said immediately, âWait, Young Miss, actually IâmâŚâ
However, the disciples were very excited and never gave her the chance to talk. They charged at them together.
The man behind her took out his sword and helped Nie Shuang block the disciples.
Ming Shu once again confirmed that her disciples were weak, so weak that they would fall on the floor crying in pain after the other party swung his sword a few times.
Everyone looked at them with disdain. They thought that they would be able to watch a good show, but it turned out to be a joke.
How dare they snatch a man when they are so weak?
Who gave them the courage?
Ming Shu sighed. She pulled up her sleeves and personally entered the fight.
The disciples knew how to cooperate with her. They pestered the man and let Ming Shu handle Nie Shuang.
Once Ming Shu struck, there was only success.
âMiss, actually IâŚâ Nie Shuang tried to explain that she was not a man.
Ming Shu smiled gently and grabbed Nie Shuangâs elbow. Nie Shuang looked at her in surprise as she threw her over her shoulder and slammed her on the ground.
Ming Shu reached out and felt around Nie Shuangâs body.
âYou⌠what are you doing?â Nie Shuang was scared. She reached out and covered her chest.
She was not planning to do something to her right on the streets, right?
Of course, Nie Shuang thought too much. Ming Shu only wanted to find the Five Treasures Bible.
However, after touching every single inch of Nie Shuangâs body, she didnât find it.
[Guest, there are so many people here. Why donât you undress her?] The Harmony System popped out and gave her an idea. It was a stupid idea. No surprise about that.
Ming Shu: ââŚâ Besides this, do you have any other ideas?
[This is the most effective course of action.] Easy and effective methods are not creative, but you can get Hatred Points!
Who cares about creativity if you can get Hatred Points?
Ming Shu ignored the Harmony System. The Harmony System was depressed and continued thinking bad ideas.
Ming Shu grabbed Nie Shuangâs neck. She gave her a smile and said in a gentle tone, âWhere is the Five Treasures Bible?â
Nie Shuang narrowed her eyes. She immediately denied it. âWhat Five Treasures Bible. Iâve never heard of it. You got the wrong person. Let me go!â
How does she know that I have the Five Treasures Bible?
Who is she?
Is she from the Five Treasures Immortal Clan?
The Five Treasures Immortal Clan had disappeared for half a month⌠they seemed to have given up. This was not someone from the Five Treasures Immortal Clan.
The people from the Five Treasures Immortal Clan were weird. They had no symbols and they wore different clothes.
When they chased her last time, they would shout at her, telling her that the Five Treasures Immortal Clan would not let her off so easily. That was how she knew who they were.
But, these people didnât say anything. Hence, even though Nie Shuang had stayed at the Five Treasures Immortal Clan for a period of time, she did not recognize these people. There were no familiar faces.
Ming Shu channeled more force into her hand and Nie Shuang started to have trouble breathing. However, she still claimed that she knew nothing about the Five Treasures Bible.
Xiuâ
A sword sound rang beside her and Ming Shu threw an object out. The object hit the sword and there was a loud noise.
The sword fell to the ground. At the same time, a colorful rice ball fell to the ground too.
The surroundings suddenly quieted down.
The rice ball stretched its short legs and arms and shook its fur. Its black eyes spun a few rounds before it ran toward Ming Shu with the sword.
It was very small. The sword was very big. The scene looked very strange.
Little Beastie placed the sword in front of Ming Shu proudly and jumped around.
Give me food and I will not make a fuss about that fact that you threw me out! It must be a complete Manchu-Han banquet!
Ming Shu slapped Little Beastie away and picked up the sword. She placed it at Nie Shuangâs neck and smiled at the man. âDonât come closer. Iâm not sure if your sword is sharp or not.â
