Chapter 206: Setting Up a Challenge
Chapter 206: Setting Up a Challenge
With Su Xia's introduction, Bai Sui'an also met many old hands, and probably these people had guessed the future of Mingyue Villa.
Rather than getting acquainted with this new lady, it would be better to catch up with Xu Hongxiu, whom I have known for many years.
"I advised you not to get involved in the mess between nations. You've tied your lives to those high-ranking royals. You won't be able to choose how you die!"
An old man who looked much older than Xu Hongxiu sat opposite Xu Hongxiu, his tone full of helplessness of an elder towards a younger person.
Xu Hongxiu glanced at Bai Sui'an from afar in the crowd. He trusted the person beside him.
"The future of the Xu family is in the hands of me, their adopted daughter."
The old man couldn't help but look at Bai Sui'an twice more and sighed softly: "Where did you find this little girl? She looks like a delicate young lady. What can she understand?"
"Uncle, you said the same thing to my father back then."
"I've seen more blood than you've eaten salt. How could I have mistaken you? You were an accident back then. Who knew you could get so involved by chance?"
Xu Hongxiu did not argue much. After all, he was the only old man left who had watched him grow up.
Wu Tong also cherished the descendants of his old friend, so he said a few words and then made it count: "I will play with you for a while while I can still move. Let's see if I can see the magical powers of your adopted daughter before I close my eyes."
"This is Grandpa Wu."
Su Xia brought Bai Sui'an in front of the two of them.
The guests outside have already seen it, so now let Bai Sui'an come to Xu Hongxiu.
The couple knew something had changed with just one look.
Xu Hongxiu pulled the corner of his mouth, and his inquiring eyes fell on Bai Sui'an, while he did not forget to introduce:
"The relationship between this old man and my father is better than that between family members."
Bai Sui'an curled his lips: "Hello, Grandpa Wu, I'm Sui'an."
"I know. Your father has said a lot about you." Wu Tong smiled and nodded to her, completely missing the sharp look he had shown in front of Xu Hongxiu just now.
"The guests have almost all arrived. Before the next guests arrive, go and take a look at the gifts we have for you, especially the one I gave you. Try it out and see if it fits your hands. I heard you have some skills, but I wonder how you handle a whip."
Su Xia laughed sweetly and waved her hands, saying, "Uncle, you are such a fool! How can you give weapons to a little girl?"
Wu Tong feigned displeasure: "At my age, all I have around me are the things I used to fight and kill, so I can only pick out the good things from them to give away."
"Thank you, Grandpa Wu. I just like those things." Bai Sui'an took Su Xia's arm and said, "Mom, can I go and take a look now?"
"They are all for you, so of course you can go and see them."
Su Xia took her people away, and Wu Tong kept looking at Bai Sui'an with his dark eyes until he disappeared from his sight.
"I don't see what it's all about, but it does make people happy."
Wu Tong didn't think Bai Sui'an really liked weapons.
"It shows that he is a smart person."
After two days of inaction, Xu Hongxiu was able to convince his wife early in the morning. He himself couldn't guess what Bai Sui'an was thinking, "What if she can escape danger by herself today?"
Wu Tong glanced at him and said, "Then why did you ask us to rush here so early?"
Xu Hongxiu laughed: "That's because I haven't seen her abilities myself, right? I heard she's pretty good."
"How good is it?"
"It is said that my in-laws are no match for her."
relatives by marriage?
Wu Tong was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered who that person was. He realized that something was wrong: "That was Qian Heng's former God of Killing!"
Not to mention that Ye Zihu is a killing god, Bai Sui'an's mother was also Tianxuan's former killing god.
Xu Hongxiu, who had known the news long ago, accepted this fact and said with a smile, "What if he showed mercy to the little girl?"
"That's not far off."
The gifts sent were varied. Some people had the same idea as Grandpa Wu and sent weapons, but they were all relatively light.
There were three whips, but the best quality one was the one sent by Wu Tong.
You can also give girls things they like, such as cloth, jewelry and treasures.
Su Xia seemed to be choosing among various weapons. Seeing Bai Sui'an already touching the cloth, she became a little anxious:
"When we came here, we asked everyone to take their personal weapons. Only these delivered here are usable. Have you chosen what you want to use?"
Bai Sui'an was just thinking about what kind of clothes she could make for Yashu with these brightly colored fabrics. When she heard Su Xia urging her like this, she smiled and said,
"They can all be used. Mom, please arrange for someone to return Grandpa Wu and the others' weapons and let them protect themselves. No matter how many people come, as long as they protect themselves, I will do my best to minimize the casualties."
"What if there are too many people?"
"Even with more people, we can defeat them one by one."
When it was almost time for dinner, Bai Sui'an went to the kitchen in advance to get a few meat buns to fill his stomach.
Ah Hong had already set up the stage outside, and guests began to arrive one after another. The guests who came later did not have the chance to see Bai Sui'an, and after coming in, they looked around trying to find someone.
After filling his stomach, Bai Sui'an changed into a black training suit that was resistant to dirt, walked to the platform set up by Ah Hong, and began to prepare:
"I've long heard of the great names of the seniors in the martial arts world, and I admire them deeply. Now that all the heroes have gathered here, I, Rong, am bold enough to set up a challenge. The prize is not big, but anyone who fights with me and defeats me will receive a gold ingot."
The guests present looked at each other in confusion. The prize was not big, but giving a gold ingot?
Xu Hongxiu also stood up. He didn't know that Bai Sui'an had this plan.
Wu Tong, who was standing by, was also puzzled: "You, Miss, are you asking for a fight? Those brothers who came to help you also want to take the gold ingots."
He glanced at the people he knew, and seeing that everyone was sitting still, he smiled again.
"Brothers who have been through thick and thin together are the most loyal. It seems that whoever makes the first move is the one who has renegade intentions."
All the people were invited by Xu Hongxiu, and each of them was trustworthy and came to help protect Bai Sui'an. How could they come on stage to ask for this prize?
What if Bai Sui'an gets injured, and then those people with ulterior motives suddenly attack, and Bai Sui'an doesn't have the strength to escape?
"Sui'an, it's time for dinner, don't be in a hurry." Xu Hongxiu shouted, and when Bai Sui'an looked at him, he shook his head slightly.
Bai Sui'an smiled sweetly, like a mischievous girl who loved to do some lawless things to please others. "You guys eat, I'll show you some moves on the stage, and you guys can watch the excitement from the audience, so your food will taste better."
"Second Miss, this is a great idea. It will allow us all to see the Second Miss's grace and see what a wonderful person this villa's Second Miss is!"
One of them stood up and agreed, walking towards the stage, "It just so happens that I would like to spar with the Second Young Lady. Please give me some advice."
It’s not that no one suspected that this was a conspiracy of Mingyue Villa, but Bai Sui’an took on the challenge alone. If he accidentally killed a delicate and tender girl during the competition, wouldn’t he be able to achieve his goal?
It doesn’t matter whether you can get a gold ingot or not. The main thing is that the second young lady herself is willing to sacrifice her life.
Many people who wanted to assassinate were eager to try.
