Chapter 587 Help
"careful!"

Zhong Ling saw this scene on the beam and couldn't help but shout in worry.

But at this moment, a figure, as if prepared, came up to him and grabbed Duan Yu.

Zuo Zimu's sword almost brushed Duan Yu's hair and missed.

"Thank you, brother, for helping me!"

Duan Yu finally came to his senses and looked at the handsome young man in black brocade clothes beside him, and clasped his fists in gratitude to apologize.

"Brother, be careful!"

The young man in black was none other than Chai Xin, who had been watching the show for a long time.

Seeing Zuo Zimu stabbing at him with his sword again, he quickly grabbed Duan Yu's arm and dragged him back a few steps.

"Hey, old man! You've been poisoned by my lightning marten, but you're still practicing without any scruples. Aren't you afraid that your blood circulation will be aggravated and you'll die faster?"

On the beam, Zhong Ling shouted loudly.

Zuo Zimu originally wanted to raise his sword to stab again, but upon hearing these words, his body paused.

He lowered his head and looked at the blackened wound on his left hand, and felt that his blood circulation was indeed gradually becoming obstructed.

Worry finally took over her heart. She no longer cared about Duan Yu. She turned to look at Zhong Ling and said coldly: "Little bitch, hand over the antidote quickly, or I will kill you even if the poison takes effect!"

"You old man, you are so dirty even at your age! Don't say that I don't have the antidote. Even if I do, I will never give it to you!"

Seeing his bad attitude, Zhong Ling kept calling him a "little bitch" and even referring to Duan Yu as her "little lover", and she couldn't help feeling ashamed and angry.

"Master Zuo, you are the leader of a sect after all. How can you use foul language to slander a girl's innocence like this? If this gets out, won't the world laugh at you?"

Duan Yu is a kind-hearted man. Even though his life was in danger just a moment ago, he couldn't help but speak up for Zhong Ling at this moment.

"Hahaha, Zuo Zimu, you just kept saying that I was despicable and shameless, but with what you've done now, how many people in the martial arts world can be more despicable and shameless than you?"

Before Zuo Zimu could say anything, Sikong Xuan, who was standing at the door, started to mock him.

"You are so bold! That's a lightning marten, extremely poisonous. It seems there is no need for me to do anything now. You will die soon!"

As he spoke, he walked into the house, but he no longer looked at Zuo Zimu, as if he no longer considered him a danger.

He looked up at Zhong Ling on the beam and said with a smile: "Little girl, hand over the lightning marten honestly, otherwise you may not be able to leave this room today."

Shennong Bang was an expert in using poisons and medicines, and had a great interest in all kinds of poisons and elixirs.

They can even improve their strength through some special poisons or elixirs.

For them, a highly venomous animal like the lightning marten is as tempting as a hundred-year-old ginseng.

In fact, because the lightning marten is extremely fast, it is actually more difficult to get a lightning marten than to get a century-old plant.

"Another bad old man, you dare to ask me for Diao'er? If my father knew about this, I'm afraid you would end up in a miserable situation!"

Facing Sikong Xuan's threat, Zhong Ling was not afraid at all. She stood up, bent down, walked a few steps on the beam, and spoke crisply.

"Little girl, you don't think I'm as stupid as this guy named Zuo, do you? I'm from the Shennong Gang, and playing with poisonous creatures is our specialty. If you want to bite me with your lightning marten, I'm afraid it won't be easy!"

Sikong Xuan walked a few steps away from Zhong Ling without leaving a trace, and came to Duan Yu and Chai Xin.

As he spoke, he suddenly drew out the long sword from his waist and placed it directly on Duan Yu's neck.

"Little girl, I see that you seem to have quite a crush on this young man. Hand the lightning marten over to me, or I will kill him immediately!"

This old fellow is indeed more sinister than Zuo Zimu. He also knows how powerful the Lightning Marten is. In a short period of time, he thought of taking Duan Yu as a hostage to threaten Zhong Ling.

When Zhong Ling saw this scene, she couldn't help but feel anxious, and a hint of worry flashed across her big watery eyes.

Although she had never met Duan Yu before, she had seen with her own eyes that he always spoke up for justice, had a simple character, was a kind young man, and was also very handsome. Naturally, she didn't want him to die like this.

After all, Zhong Ling is still a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old. Although she has more experience in the martial arts world than Duan Yu, she is not much stronger.

Most importantly, she is indeed a kind girl.

Otherwise, if Sikong Xuan threatened someone whose name he didn't even know, she wouldn't have to care at all.

Sikong Xuan, a cunning man, naturally noticed the change in Zhong Ling's expression, and immediately became more confident.

However, just as he was about to speak again, he suddenly felt a strong wind coming from the side.

Before he could come to his senses, he was kicked in the lower back.

The kick was incredibly powerful and came at a very tricky angle; he was unable to dodge it and was hit hard.

"Girl, let the mink bite him!"

The person who suddenly kicked was naturally Chai Xin.

Although he doesn't have any skills now, this incarnation is condensed from the blood of the original body after all, so naturally he has some extraordinary talents.

Although he looks thin and tall, among ordinary people, he can definitely be said to have natural supernatural powers.

Furthermore, this incarnation of his still retains one billionth of his original vision and fighting instincts, so he may not be able to deal with those with profound martial arts skills.

However, the success rate of using a sneak attack against the leader of a small and inferior sect like Sikong Xuan is naturally not low.

Of course, this kick did not really cause any substantial harm to Sikong Quan, it just made him stagger.

But even so, it can play a key role in the current circumstances.

Sikong Xuan was already on guard, so it would naturally be very difficult for Zhong Ling to let the marten bite him.

However, Sikong Xuan did not guard against Chai Xin who was standing next to him, because he could tell from Chai Xin's actions in saving Duan Yu that he was a person without any martial arts foundation.

Therefore, even though Chai was standing not far from Duan Yu, Sikong Xuan did not regard him as a threat at all.

It was this carelessness that put him in the crisis at this moment.

He staggered and fell two steps. He couldn't keep his balance and sat down on the ground.

At this time, Zhong Ling also reacted and immediately threw away the purple mink in her hand.

"Shh!"

A purple light flashed by, and the little mink had already landed on Sikong Xuan's arm.

"what!"

Sikong Xuan screamed, and the clothes at his elbows were torn by the lightning marten, and blood immediately spurted out. "Diao'er, come back quickly!"

Seeing Sikong Xuan swinging his sword at the lightning marten in severe pain, Zhong Ling hurriedly shouted in a tender voice.

The electric marten was indeed smart, and it jumped onto the beam again in a flash.

"Brother, thank you so much. You saved my life twice in the blink of an eye. I cannot repay you enough for your kindness!"

Duan Yu hurriedly followed Chai Xin and ran two steps to the back, then he clasped his fists in gratitude in shock.

Chai Xin smiled and waved his hand gently, saying nonchalantly: "I think you are a kind-hearted person, and I can't bear to see you encounter an accident. This is just a small favor, and you don't have to worry so much."

In fact, the reason why he helped out was, on the one hand, because of the reason he mentioned, and on the other hand, he hoped to improve Duan Yu's favorability, which would come in handy in the future.

Duan Yu’s character is impeccable and he is still worth helping.

"Brother, I will never forget your kindness. My surname is Duan, and my given name is Yu. May I ask your name and where your immortal hometown is?"

Because I was taught since childhood to be grateful and repay kindness, how could I give up the gratitude in my heart just because I believe these few words?

Seeing that Chai Xinsheng was a handsome man, and acted so noble and indifferent, without seeking any reward, he was even more moved and admired him.

"Brother Duan, you are too polite. My last name is Chai Xin, and I am just a wild man. It is fate that we met. Please do not mention those words of repaying a favor."

Chai Xin waved his hand again, his tone sounding very sincere.

"But Brother Duan, this place is dangerous. For people like you and me who don't know martial arts, it's better to get out as soon as possible. I didn't expect that I would encounter such a disaster during this leisurely trip."

"It turns out to be Lord Chai. Thank you for your kind reminder, but I still want to give it a try and try to resolve the feud between the Shennong Gang and the Wuliang Sword Sect..."

At this time, Duan Yu had not experienced too many hardships and his innocence was almost adorable. After experiencing two life-threatening situations, he had no intention of leaving.

Seeing this, Chai Xin stopped trying to persuade him and shook his head, saying, "In that case, Brother Duan, please take care of yourself. I don't have Brother Duan's great kindness and courage, so I can only protect myself."

"You risked your life to save me, you are truly a man of unparalleled generosity and courage... But I overestimated my own abilities and wanted to give it a try. Please go now, benefactor, and take care of yourself. If I am lucky enough to survive today, I will definitely come to you to express my gratitude again."

As he spoke, Duan Yu bowed to Chai Xin very carefully and respectfully.

Chai Xin clasped his fists in return and without saying anything else, turned and walked out.

His previous move was just to make himself familiar with Duan Yu so that it would be easier for him to act later.

At this moment, both Zuo Zimu and Sikong Xuan focused their attention on Zhong Ling and the Lightning Marten. It was a good time for him to withdraw.

After all, he is very weak now, and he can still gain a little advantage by catching the enemy by surprise.

But if you stay at the center of the vortex for a long time, it will be difficult to gain any benefits.

Next, all he had to do was hide and watch how things developed.

Duan Yu is, after all, the son of the Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, and he has great luck. As long as there is no excessive external interference, under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for him to die before the entire main storyline is completed.

As a being who has traveled through several different realms, Chai Xin naturally has a full understanding of this.

"Damn it! Who is this fool who dares to attack me? I will make sure you die without a burial place!"

Sikong Xuan covered his bleeding arm, stood up from the ground, and looked around angrily.

At this time, Chai Xin had already left the hall and no one knew where he had hidden.

"Boss Sikong, you are already injured. It is best not to get angry, so as not to affect your injury."

Duan Yu couldn't help but persuade.

He did this because he was worried that if Sikong Xuan chased him out, his savior would be in danger, so he deliberately diverted his attention.

"You two bad old men, I really admire you for still being in the mood to throw tantrums. You should think more about your own lives! Even if you have good internal strength, you will not survive more than six or seven days after being bitten by my mink!"

Zhong Ling sat back on the beam, her legs swinging happily in the air, her tone full of gloating.

Although this girl has a kind personality, she is not as simple as Duan Yu. Influenced by her parents, she is also quite ruthless in her bones.

At least she doesn't have any sympathy for those bad guys like Sikong Xuan and Zuo Zimu in her eyes.

"Little bitch, give me the antidote quickly, or you will not be able to leave here today!"

Sikong Xuan roared in anger, stomped his legs and rushed straight to the beam.

Zuo Zimu's face also looked very ugly. He no longer cared about the conflict with the Shennong Gang. He also waved his sword and stabbed towards Zhong Ling.

"Girl, be careful! Gang Leader Sikong, Sect Leader Zuo, you two are both well-known figures in the martial arts world. How could you team up to bully a little girl? If this gets out, I'm afraid it will damage your reputation!"

Duan Yu was extremely anxious, but he could only worry and could not help at all.

"You two are so brave. If I die, you will definitely die! I might as well tell you that I don't have the antidote with me. You have to get it from my father! If you kill me, my father will probably cut you into pieces. How can he give you the antidote?"

Zhong Ling rolled over and fell directly from the beam, dodging the attacks from Sikong Xuan and Zuo Zimu.

Of course, it’s not that she is so powerful that these two leaders can’t do anything to her.

But Zuo Zimu and Sikong Xuan both knew that if they didn't get the antidote from Zhong Ling and killed the person directly, they would probably lose their lives.

The attack just now was just a threat.

Hearing Zhong Ling's words, their faces became even uglier.

"You said you don't have the antidote, but how can you convince people? In my opinion, you are a clever little girl, and you are just making up excuses to protect yourself! The antidote must be on you!"

Sikong Xuan said coldly.

"You two said you don't believe it, then kill me and see if you can find the antidote in me."

Zhong Ling smiled and folded her hands, looking very relaxed, as if she didn't care about her own life at all.

"Or do you two old thieves dare to search me? If you ruin my reputation, I will commit suicide immediately, and my father will not let you go."

As soon as these words were spoken, Sikong Xuan and Zuo Zimu completely gave up the evil thoughts in their minds.

They were not afraid of the father that Zhong Ling mentioned, after all, they didn't know who her father was.

I'm just worried that if they force a body search and the antidote is definitely not on Zhong Ling, then things will come to a dead end.

Nowadays, if a man searches a girl's body, it is tantamount to destroying her reputation.

Women would rather die than damage their reputation.
