As soon as this voice rang out, everyone turned to look at the person that it came from.
As the soft and feminine voice had suggested, it was a girl who had said this.
But it wasn’t just any girl.
It was a beautiful girl with fair white skin and flowing black hair who had stepped up to say this.
She didn’t hesitate to move in between Senior Brother Tang and Xiao Ming, blocking his way to Xiao Ming with her own body. She didn’t look at Xiao Ming for a single second as all of her attention was on Senior Brother Tang.
She just stood there in front of him and said, “Senior Brother Tang, you can’t just waste your time on anyone. You should go and walk around with me instead.”
With the way that she said this and the words that she said, it was clear why she was doing this.
She wanted this Senior Brother Tang for herself, which was why she was getting in the way.
Xiao Ming had no idea who this person was, but she soon figured it out from the whispers around her.
“That’s the saintess from the Holy Myriad Land, Wu Yun.”
“Right, isn’t she the one with the Flowing Cloud Physique?”
“It’s said that she’s long been in love with Senior Brother Tang since he saved her from a spirit beast in the wild. However, Senior Brother Tang has never shown anything more than wanting to be friends with her. It’s such a shame, the two of them really would seem like a perfect couple.”
She was his fan, that’s what it was.
Xiao Ming revealed a faint smile after hearing the gossip from around her, but she didn’t do anything more than just reveal this smile.
Senior Brother Tang had been silent for a few seconds, but hearing the gossip from around them, he had no choice but to say something.
“Junior Sister Wu, it’s not what you think. This Junior Sister Xiao is from the Love Sect. You know, the sect that is like a brother sect to our Martial Might Sect. I’m just being friendly and showing her around.”
Wu Yun finally looked at Xiao Ming after hearing this and there was only hostility in her eyes.
It was as if she didn’t believe what Senior Brother Tang said.
It was as if she couldn’t believe that he only had proper intentions in wanting to show her around.
She was looking at Xiao Ming like she was a thieving cat.
When Xiao Ming saw Wu Yun looking at her like this, she couldn’t help shaking her head and giving a sigh.
In the first place, she wasn’t interested in Senior Brother Tang and she had no intentions of accepting his offer. After all, she knew that the Martial Might Sect didn’t have the best intentions for approaching their Love Sect in the first place.
So she had been planning on staying away from the Martial Might Sect.
But they just kept coming at her and they even brought their groupies along.
With a sigh, Xiao Ming turned to Senior Brother Tang and said, “Thank you for the invitation, but I prefer walking alone for now. If there’s anything that I need your help with, I’ll come and find you.”
Without even waiting for a response from him, she waved her hand at her group to follow her as she made her way past the Martial Might Sect group.
Wu Yun had a displeased look seeing Xiao Ming ignore them like this, but there was also a trace of happiness when she saw that Xiao Ming wasn’t interested in her Senior Brother Tang.
Wu Yun was about to say something to Senior Brother Tang, but he made his move first.
Senior Brother Tang took a step forward as if he was about to grab Xiao Ming’s hand, but she easily dodged out of the way, causing him to grab nothing but air.
There was a trace of surprise as he looked up at Xiao Ming, as if he didn’t expect her to dodge out of the way so easily. But that expression quickly went back to a smile as he said, “Junior Sister Xiao, is there a need to act this way? I’m sure that it will be very helpful to you if you come with us. We know many people here since our Martial Might Sect is based in the Wu Empire. We will be able to help you make new connections that will be hard to make on your own.”
The way that he was saying this, it was almost as if he was trying to entice Xiao Ming with benefits.
But to his surprise, it didn’t seem like Xiao Ming was moved by any of this.
Xiao Ming just looked back at Senior Brother Tang with a disinterested look and said, “Thank you for the offer, but there’s no need for this. We’ll just walk around on our own for now.”
Once again, she didn’t even give Senior Brother Tang a chance to say anything as she walked right past them.
As they were moving past, Huang Xie and Yu Huang narrowed their eyes to look at Senior Brother Tang. They only looked at him for a split second before moving along while following Xiao Ming.
When they were gone, Senior Brother Tang narrowed his eyes as he looked in the direction that they went in.
Wu Yun grabbed Senior Brother Tang’s arm during this while he was lost in thought and said, “Senior Brother Tang, there’s no need to care about those ungrateful people. We can walk around on our own.”
Senior Brother Tang snapped out of his daze when he heard this, before saying with a nod, “Alright, let’s walk around on our own then, Junior Sister Wu.”
Wu Yun couldn’t help being a bit taken aback by this since Senior Brother Tang had never responded like this to her invitation before. But seeing him accept right now filled her with excitement as she happily nodded in agreement.
As they walked off, no one noticed the slightly dark look in Senior Brother Tang’s eyes.
It was as if he wasn’t planning on letting this matter be settled like this.
…
After walking for a bit, Xiao Ming realized something.
Someone was trailing them.
She didn’t know who it was since there was a large crowd of people around them, but she was certain that there was someone trailing them since she could feel their gaze on them.
After walking for a bit, Xiao Ming suddenly stopped and turned to look at the other members of her group.
They were surprised to see her stop like this, though there were a few that did understand why she had done so. They had also felt the gazes from behind them, even if these gazes were directed at Xiao Ming.
Since these people wanted something from them, they would see just what they wanted.
With a nod from Xiao Ming, their group suddenly headed towards an area that was less crowded.
There were still people here, but it seemed like they were more willing to mind their own business than to get involved in anything that happened.
It was there that the ones watching over them struck.
It was a group of disciples from other sects that had been following them the entire time. As soon as they were isolated from everyone else, they attacked the Love Sect group.
And in a matter of a few seconds, all of them were lying on the ground.
As soon as they attacked, all of the disciples of the Love Sect had sprung into action and easily took care of these attackers. Not a single disciple of the Love Sect showed any difficulty taking care of them.
Even the ones that came from the Mu Empire didn’t have any difficulties.
That was because during their time sparring with the disciples of the Love Sect, they had gotten used to a completely different level. It was a level that these attackers of theirs couldn’t match at all, so they were able to easily handle the attackers.
Once all of the attackers were on the ground, the crowd that had gathered because of the sound showed shocked looks.
As Xiao Ming stood over all the attackers that she had defeated, she said, “Is that all that you have?”
Half of the ones that had attacked the Love Sect group had targeted Xiao Ming, as if they had some kind of grudge against her. But not a single one of them had been able to do a single thing to her as they were all knocked out with a single blow from Xiao Ming.
After looking around for a bit, Xiao Ming suddenly looked in a certain direction, at a certain person. Looking at this person, she asked, “Or do you want to go for a second round?”
That person that she was looking at revealed a strange look before quickly saying with a concerned expression, “Junior Sister Xiao, what are you talking about? We just heard the commotion and came over to help.”
This person was Senior Brother Tang who had rushed over when the fighting had started.
He had wanted to help, but he didn’t get a chance as all of the attackers had been defeated before he could step forward.
Xiao Ming just narrowed her eyes to look at Senior Brother Tang before asking, “Is that so?”
The tone of her voice made it very clear that she doubted Senior Brother Tang.
It was almost as if she was saying, “You’re the one that sent them, aren’t you?”
