The Queen travels through time and dominates the four realms

Chapter 234

Everyone cheered even more after hearing this. In the mansion of the Hua family, a grand celebration began. Young talents, brave heroes, merchants and celebrities... all kinds of heroes in the town came to the scene to send blessings to the Hua family. The banquet had delicious food and delicacies from land and sea. The performers were even more carefully prepared, and all kinds of singing, dancing, and acrobatic skills were presented. The whole scene was filled with thunderous cheers and the atmosphere was extremely warm.

After three rounds of drinking, a man in black suddenly appeared in front of everyone. He was wearing a mask and looked mysterious.

"I have heard of your name for a long time, and I am here to show my ugliness today." The man in black said in a low voice, "Everyone, please listen to a little song."

He took out the flute from his waist, put it to his lips and started to play. The tune was melodious and sad, intoxicating. As the music changed, the air seemed to be filled with a sad atmosphere. Everyone was attracted by the sound of his flute, as if they were in another world.

Suddenly, the figure of the man in black appeared like a ghost, and before everyone's eyes could see, he was already in front of Hua Rong. He stretched out his hands and grabbed Hua Rong's arm: "Is this how you repay me?"

Hua Rong was frightened by his actions and screamed, "Brother!" She struggled to break free from the black-clothed man, but the other party was very strong and she couldn't break free.

At this moment, a figure appeared in front of the man in black.

"Ren Xiaoyao, why are you helping me so much?" Qi Qingxi asked with her head tilted. "Although I am grateful that you helped me disperse a group of scoundrels before, you won't go against the Canglang Gang for me, right?"

Ren Xiaoyao's heart moved, and he thought to himself: "Silly girl, I helped you drive away the scoundrels just for the sake of convenience, and I didn't think too much about the factions." He smiled and said: "What is the Canglang Gang? Why should I be afraid of them! I just helped them because I saw those guys bullying a woman."

After hearing this, Qi Qingxi's beautiful eyes flashed with gratitude, but she said angrily: "Then why are you so nice to me?"

Ren Xiaoyao was stunned. He didn't expect Qi Qingxi to ask this. He just wanted to protect her and prevent her from getting hurt. As for why he was nice to her, he didn't think about it.

Seeing Ren Xiaoyao stunned, Qi Qingxi felt a little annoyed. She didn't want Ren Xiaoyao to take advantage of her. So she changed the question: "Are you in love with me?"

Ren Xiaoyao was stunned. He had never thought about this question before. Does he like Qi Qingxi? This thought shocked him, and then he smiled and said, "Everyone likes a woman like you."

Qi Qingxi's expression changed slightly after hearing this, but then she smiled again. She turned her head and looked at Ren Xiaoyao: "Will you always protect me in the future?"

Ren Xiaoyao looked at Qi Qingxi's bright eyes, his heart moved slightly, and he smiled: "Of course, I will always protect you. As long as you don't dislike me."

Qi Qingxi was delighted when she heard this. Of course, she would not despise Ren Xiaoyao. She secretly swore in her heart that she would repay Ren Xiaoyao well in the future and let him know her feelings.

"Ren Xiaoyao, you're such a liar! I will never believe you again!" Qi Qingxi clenched her fists, her eyes red, and choked up, "You clearly said you would always protect me, but now you've abandoned me! People like you are not worthy of being my friend!"

Ren Xiaoyao was a little dazed by the scolding. He did not abandon Qi Qingxi, but just wanted to let her calm down first. He did not expect that his good intentions would be misunderstood as deception, and he did not know how to explain it for a while.

Seeing that Ren Xiaoyao remained silent, Qi Qingxi thought that he had acquiesced to her accusation, and her anger grew even more intense. She looked at Ren Xiaoyao with tearful eyes and choked up, "You big liar! I hate you!"

Ren Xiaoyao was scolded so much that he had no choice but to explain: "Qingxi, you misunderstood me. I didn't abandon you. I just wanted you to calm down first. There are some things I have wanted to explain to you for a long time."

Qi Qingxi stopped crying after hearing this, but she was still very angry: "What do you want to explain? Tell me."

Ren Xiaoyao thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I have always liked you, but I knew that there was a huge gap between our identities, so I never dared to tell you. This time I have figured it out. No matter who you are, I want to be with you. I want to protect you until we grow old."

"Hey, kid, you've offended someone you shouldn't have offended. Today is the day you die!" the man in black grinned.

Ren Xiaoyao's expression remained unchanged, and he said coldly: "Stop talking nonsense, it's up to you to kill or chop me up, just do it!"

The black-clothed man's eyes narrowed. He couldn't stand these stubborn guys the most, but he had a more important task today and he didn't want to waste time here.

"Since you are looking for death, don't blame me!" The man in black shouted angrily, and his figure flashed, rushing towards Ren Xiaoyao like a black lightning.

Seeing that the man in black was about to rush towards him, Ren Xiaoyao was not in a hurry. He took a step wrong and dodged the attack by dodging it in the nick of time.

The man in black missed the first attack, but he did not stop and used the "Black Tiger Heart-Ripping" move, punching Ren Xiaoyao's back with his right fist.

Ren Xiaoyao seemed to have anticipated the attack of the man in black. Instead of retreating, he advanced and twisted his body strangely. He not only avoided the attack of the man in black, but also stabbed the man in black's chest with a backhanded sword.

The sword was as fast as lightning. The man in black had no time to react and was stabbed by Ren Xiaoyao's sword.

"boom!"

The man in black was knocked away by Ren Xiaoyao's sword, rolled several times in the air, and fell heavily to the ground.

Ren Xiaoyao's sword was so powerful that it made the black-clothed man's blood boil and he could hardly stand up.

When the white-haired old man saw this, his face changed drastically. He never expected that this unremarkable young man could be so powerful.

"Senior, this kid is too cunning. Let's work together to deal with him!" The man in black spat out a mouthful of blood, struggled to stand up and said to the white-haired old man.

The white-haired old man did not speak. He took out a green bamboo bucket from his arms and said slowly: "This thing is called 'Drunken Immortal Powder', and it is an extremely strange poison."

The white-haired old man put the green bamboo bucket on the ground and slowly opened it. Instantly, an intoxicating fragrance came to the nose, making people intoxicated.

When the man in black saw the "Drunken Immortal Powder" in the white-haired old man's hand, his expression changed. He didn't want to be poisoned, so he immediately became alert. However, Ren Xiaoyao was calm, as if he didn't take these poisons seriously.

The white-haired old man showed a sinister smile on his face, raised his hand, and sprinkled the "Drunken Immortal Powder" towards Ren Xiaoyao. In an instant, the poisonous powder spread and completely enveloped Ren Xiaoyao.

"Senior, this kid has been poisoned by the 'Immortal Drunken Powder'. Let's see how long he can last!" The man in black laughed.

Ren Xiaoyao dodged the poison powder attack from the white-haired old man with a flash of his body. He stretched out his right hand, grabbed a flying stone, and then threw it towards the white-haired old man.

The white-haired old man didn't expect Ren Xiaoyao's body skills to be so strong that he could dodge his poison powder attack. He didn't have time to dodge, and the stone had already flown in front of him. With a "bang", his head was hit by the stone and he immediately fell to the ground.

"Senior!" The man in black exclaimed when he saw the white-haired old man fainted on the ground, and rushed over to check. However, Ren Xiaoyao had already stepped forward and chopped his neck with a sword.

The man in black was horrified. He didn't want to be hit like the white-haired old man, so he quickly used his special move, "Black Tiger Heart-Rip!" and punched Ren Xiaoyao in the chest.

Ren Xiaoyao showed no fear, and he dodged the attack of the man in black with a strange movement. Then, he kicked the man in black with his right foot, sending him flying and crashing heavily into a tree.

"Crack!" The man in black's sternum was broken. He covered his chest with his hands, blood oozing from the corners of his mouth, and he was in excruciating pain.

Ren Xiaoyao didn't give the man in black any chance to breathe. He stepped forward, pointed his sword at his throat, and sneered, "Tell me, who sent you here?"

"What...what do you want?" the man in black asked with a weak and trembling voice.

Ren Xiaoyao's eyes were cold and firm: "I want to know who is behind this. If you don't tell me, I will make you wish you were dead!"

The man in black was frightened by Ren Xiaoyao's eyes, and a sense of fear rose in his heart. He knew that if he didn't tell the truth, he would die miserably.

“I say… I say…” The man in black finally collapsed, “Yes… yes…” Before he could finish his words, the man in black’s body suddenly twitched and his eyes widened, obviously dying of poisoning.

Ren Xiaoyao frowned slightly. It seemed that these people were all poisoned pawns. Once the identity of the mastermind was revealed, they would be killed immediately. But he couldn't care less now. He decided to leave here first.

Ren Xiaoyao quickly cleaned up the battlefield, took the bodies and weapons of the two men, and prepared to find a hidden place to hide them. But the most important thing now was to leave here as soon as possible.

Ren Xiaoyao took the bodies and weapons of the two men and prepared to find a secluded place to hide them. He passed through a dense forest and came to a deserted valley. This place is rarely visited and very secluded, a good place to hide bodies and weapons. Ren Xiaoyao placed the two bodies behind a hidden rock and arranged the weapons neatly one by one. He carefully covered them with dead branches and weeds to ensure that they would not be discovered. Ren Xiaoyao took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He knew that he needed to stay calm in order to deal with the next predicament. A firm look appeared on Ren Xiaoyao's face, and he knew that he could not give up. He was determined to find out the mastermind behind the scenes and avenge these innocent people.

Ren Xiaoyao stood up and looked around, trying to find the trace of the girl in white. He shouted loudly in the valley, trying to attract her attention. However, the only response he got was the echo of the valley. Ren Xiaoyao was a little worried, and he began to worry whether the girl in white had also met with an accident. If she really had an accident, it would really make things worse. Ren Xiaoyao was determined to find the girl in white and protect her safety. At the same time, he also wanted to find out the origins of these men in black, bring them to justice, and avenge the innocent villagers who died.

So, early this morning, Ren Xiaoyao got up. As soon as Ren Xiaoyao finished washing up, Ah Niu came into the room with food. Ah Niu put down the food, spread out the clothes and quilt, and then left the room.

Ren Xiaoyao ate something simple, changed into clean clothes, and sat by the bed waiting for news.

As time went by, Ren Xiaoyao became more and more anxious. Finally, there was a knock on the door. Ren Xiaoyao stood up excitedly and opened the door. He saw a man in a gray cloth shorts standing at the door. Ren Xiaoyao recognized him as his master.

Ren Xiaoyao quickly grabbed the gray-clothed man named Xiaoyao and asked: "Master, how are the sisters?"

\"Xiaoyao, calm down first. Come with me to see my uncle first, and I will tell you slowly.\" The man in gray pulled Ren Xiaoyao into the yard and walked all the way to the backyard.

Ren Xiaoyao had a confused expression on his face, and followed the gray-clothed man to the backyard. Soon, the two came to a courtyard. There was a stone table in the middle of the courtyard, and five or six middle-aged people were sitting around it. One of them was an old man wearing a blue brocade robe and a beard, sitting upright on a stone bench, staring at Ren Xiaoyao fiercely.

The old man in the blue brocade robe was the one who saved Ren Xiaoyao.

Ren Xiaoyao was shocked and quickly stepped forward to salute: "Uncle Master, I am here to report to you, your disciple Ren Xiaoyao."

The uncle nodded and pointed to a middle-aged man next to him and said, "This is your senior brother, Shen Fei."
