Chapter 23 Brother Duan, Sanren and I will cover your retreat, you can go without worry!

"You two, please come in."

Dao Baifeng welcomed the three people in.

"Yu'er, what happened to make you so flustered?"

Arriving at the temple, Dao Baifeng immediately asked.

Duan Yu was a little vague, "Mom, it's nothing, I just went out for fun and encountered some gangsters doing evil."

"And he calls himself one of the four evil men."

"But I also met a hero like Master Murong!"

"The four evil men are no match for Master Murong."

Duan Yu said this and pointed at Murong Fu.

It is even rarer to find someone who can defeat such a master as the Four Evils.

But Dao Baifeng turned his back and shook his head, saying, "Yu'er, I have become a monk now and have no intention of returning to that place. Please don't force me."

Ning Yuan looked humble.

"I am Murong Fu!"

"Alas! This is all we can do for now."

Dao Baifeng couldn't help but snorted coldly, "This Yue Lao San really doesn't know what's good for him. You are the prince of Dali, how can you take someone else as your master?"

Duan Yu said while holding Dao Baifeng's arm.

Duan Yu immediately comforted her, "But don't worry, mother. Master Murong has already forced Yue Lao San and Yun Zhonghe to retreat. We are safe now."

Although Dao Baifeng is not completely considered a martial artist, he still knows a thing or two about martial arts.

"Not to mention he's a villain in the martial arts world!"

"mother……"

Although Jiangnan and Yunnan are thousands of miles apart, Murong Fu's name is well-known in the martial arts world. Even people like Dao Baifeng who don't pay attention to martial arts have heard of it.

Seeing this, Duan Yu could only sigh and nodded in agreement.

"I was wondering who had the ability to force the four evil men to retreat, but I didn't expect it to be Nan Murong!"

"Master Murong, how can I persuade my mother to come back with me?"

Duan Yu wanted to say something, but was stopped by Ning Yuan. "Master Duan, let Sanren think about it calmly."

After a moment's thought, he showed a look of surprise and said to Ning Yuan, "It turns out to be Master Murong!"

"I don't know if it is..."

The four evil men are notorious, and each of them has extraordinary strength.

"Four evil villains!"

"Humph!"

Several people stayed in Yuxu Temple to rest that night.

"Gusu Murongfu..."

Even she was no match for any of them.

Duan Yu also looked aggrieved.

Dao Baifeng's face was solemn.

"Safety?"

Dao Baifeng shook his head. "I don't care what your reason is. You'd better go back to the palace immediately. Only when you go to the palace, these four evil men will not dare to target you again."

"Mom, we are going back to the palace. Will you come with me?"

Dao Baifeng was startled at first, and then stunned.

Ning Yuan smiled slightly, "From what I can see from Sanren's attitude, she actually wants to go back, but she may not be able to get over the hurdle in her heart for the time being. Give her some time, and she will definitely get over it."

There are not many people with the surname Murong in this world.

"There's no rush for this."

"But, Yu'er, how did you offend the four evil men?"

"Master Murong?"

Dao Baifeng showed a curious look on his face.

Dao Baifeng then looked at Duan Yu.

"You are too kind, these are just empty names."

In the pavilion, Duan Yu couldn't help but ask.

"Mom, this is not my fault. I don't know them. That Yue Lao San insisted on taking me in as his apprentice. If it weren't for Master Murong's intervention, I would have been forced to kowtow and become his disciple."

Ning Yuan clasped his fists slightly and added, "I came from Gusu."

"I hope so."

Duan Yu sighed softly.

Inside the main hall, Dao Baifeng also had mixed feelings.

But at this time.

Three figures appeared outside Yuxu Temple.

Then a low and hoarse voice came, "I heard that Nan Murong was here, so I came here specially for a while."

The voice was low and calm, but it was clearly heard by everyone in the temple.

"What a profound inner strength!"

Dao Baifeng in the hall immediately opened his eyes.

Mu Wanqing and Duan Yu in the courtyard also changed their expressions. "Could it be that they are chasing us?"

Duan Yu didn't know any martial arts, but he knew how powerful it was, and he immediately said nervously.

Although Mu Wanqing's martial arts skills were only third-rate, she knew how powerful he was. She couldn't help but grab Ning Yuan's arm and said, "Husband, who is this person?"

"Before I even saw anyone, I felt suffocated."

Mu Wanqing also looked flustered.

"You don't have to worry, I'm here."

Ning Yuan gently patted Mu Wanqing's hand that was holding his arm, and spoke in a calm voice.

At this time, Dao Baifeng also rushed over with a sword in hand. Before he arrived, he asked nervously, "Who is this person?"

"If my guess is correct, this person must be the leader of the four evil men and is full of evil."

Ning Yuan appeared extremely calm.

"It's him!"

Dao Baifeng was startled at first, then showed determination, and suddenly clasped his fists towards Ning Yuan, "Master Murong, I have a request that you do not ask for."

"What's up, Sanren?"

Ning Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly and asked in confusion.

"I want you to take Yu'er back to the Zhennan Palace."

Dao Baifeng looked determined.

"What about you, mother?"

Duan Yu immediately couldn't help but ask.

"I will hold this man back for you. Please help me, Master Murong!"

Dao Baifeng said solemnly.

"Mom, no, I won't agree. If you don't leave, I won't leave either."

Duan Yu immediately took a few steps forward and hugged Dao Baifeng's arm.

Ning Yuan shook his head and said, "There is no need to do this, Sanren. Since that evildoer has come for me today, he will not give up until he sees me. It would be better for me to stay and deal with him, and you guys leave first."

Murong Fu said righteously.

"This is not allowed!"

Dao Baifeng also shook her head repeatedly, "No matter what, it was Yu'er who provoked the four evil men. If we abandon the young master and leave alone, who will I become? What will our Dali Duan family become?"

Dao Baifeng had a determined look on her face. Although she had been a nun for many years and had not returned to the palace, she still attached great importance to the reputation of the Duan family.

"This……"

Ning Yuan sighed softly, "I can deal with the leader of the four evil men, but if he has helpers, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you. How about this, let Master Duan leave first."

Ning Yuan said this and looked towards Duan Yu.

"I?"

Duan Yu was stunned for a moment, then immediately refused, "No, I can't leave you guys behind, and my mother is here too..."

"Yu'er!"

Before Duan Yu could finish his words, he was interrupted by Dao Baifeng, "Mr. Murong is right. You don't know martial arts. When the time comes, we will have to distract ourselves from protecting you. It's better for you to leave first. This is not running away, but for you to return to the palace as soon as possible and ask your father and uncle to save us."

Dao Baifeng scolded Duan Yu with a serious face.

"This……"

Duan Yu showed hesitation, and Mu Wanqing said, "Master Duan, don't hesitate. I will lend you the Black Rose again. With the speed of the Black Rose, it will take less than a day to go back and forth to Dali."

"But I don't know martial arts. If I encounter something on the way and fail to tell my father and the others about it in time, wouldn't that harm you..."

Duan Yu looked melancholy.

"Um……"

Ning Yuan thought for a moment and nodded, "Brother Duan is right. Let's do this..."

Ning Yuan looked at Mu Wanqing, "Sister Wan, why don't you go and see Brother Duan off."

"I understand the seriousness of the matter. Don't worry, my husband. I will definitely bring reinforcements back soon."

Mu Wanqing's face became serious and she nodded solemnly.

Duan Yu, who was standing by, was also delighted when he heard this. "With Miss Mu's protection, this journey will be safer."

Mu Wanqing snorted, "If that's the case, let's go first."

"it is good!"

Duan Yu nodded with a smile on his face, then said solemnly, "Mother, Master Murong, don't worry, Miss Mu and I will definitely come back as soon as possible."

After saying that, Duan Yu gritted his teeth and turned to the backyard.

At this time, Mu Wanqing threw herself into Ning Yuan's arms, bit Ning Yuan's shoulder fiercely, then took a step back and said solemnly: "You must be safe."

"Do not worry."

Ning Yuan touched Mu Wanqing's black hair.

Mu Wanqing then turned around and left, going to the backyard to get the horse.

When they came, they rode two horses, so there was just enough for each person.

Watching the two people leave, Ning Yuan remained extremely calm.

He believed in Mu Wanqing's character.

I also know Duan Yu's character.

So there's no need to worry about what might happen when the two of them are alone.
