"So, Young Master Chu, you were first knocked out by this child, then robbed, stripped naked, and thrown into the river?" On the deck, Song Tian'er smiled as she pointed at Xiao Yu'er, looking at the extremely embarrassed Chu Liuxiang. Su Rongrong and Li Hongxiu were also chuckling.
"This..." Chu Liuxiang wanted to say something but stopped. His face turned red. He looked at the sky, feeling a deep malice from this world!
However, Xiao Yu'er rolled his eyes and cried tearfully, "Pretty sisters, don't listen to this bad guy. I didn't knock him out; he fell by himself."
"Fell by himself? Hahahaha!" Su Rongrong and the other two couldn't help but laugh.
"Damn brat, you're talking nonsense." Chu Liuxiang, enraged, grabbed at Xiao Yu'er. But Xiao Yu'er, who was prepared, dodged several times and ran towards Li Hongxiu, shouting loudly.
"Sisters, look, isn't Xiao Yu'er right? He's trying to silence me in his rage. Save me!!"
"Brat, you can't escape. My Lightness Skill is the best in the world!" Chu Liuxiang became even more furious. Afterimages whistled as he lunged at Xiao Yu'er.
Seeing the situation was bad, Xiao Yu'er quickly fled behind Song Tian'er, hugging her tightly and shouting, "Sister, save Xiao Yu'er. He's a bad guy, he wants to kill me..."
Song Tian'er giggled, shielding Xiao Yu'er behind her. She glared fiercely at Chu Liuxiang, implying, "Look at you, so fierce, even children are hiding from you now."
"Tian'er, stop fooling around. This brat is full of mischief!" Chu Liuxiang looked helplessly at Song Tian'er, asking her to move aside quickly. He wanted to teach this little rascal who dared to knock him out a lesson.
Song Tian'er ignored Chu Liuxiang completely. She turned around, patted Xiao Yu'er's head, and said softly, "Xiao Yu'er, don't worry. Sister will never let that great demon succeed. I will protect you well..."
As she spoke, Song Tian'er suddenly screamed, her voice echoing across the river. She stared blankly at Xiao Yu'er, who was running away with a sly look on his face.
At this moment, her once black and beautiful long hair was covered in a sticky, dirty liquid. Her beautiful clothes were dyed in various colors with a special dye and even filled with a strange odor.
As if she had gone mad, she suddenly shouted, "Brat, your grandma won't let you off!"
Saying that, Song Tian'er also madly pounced on Xiao Yu'er, trying to catch him. Xiao Yu'er's movements were very agile. He dodged in a few steps and even turned back to make a face, seemingly mocking Song Tian'er's stupidity.
Then... the chaos continued!
Su Rongrong and the other two stared at the scene in a daze. Chu Liuxiang gave them a look that said, "You don't believe me, do you?"
In the cabin, Chu Liuxiang sat on a chair, looking at Li Hongxiu, who was sitting opposite him, with a solemn expression. He suddenly asked, "Hongxiu, you know everything about the Jianghu. Do you know anything about Bai Yu Jing?"
"Bai Yu Jing? Is that the one who stripped you?" Song Tian'er asked curiously.
"Can you stop mentioning that incident?" Chu Liuxiang's old face flushed as he touched his nose.
Su Rongrong covered her mouth and smiled, looking at Chu Liuxiang strangely.
"Haha... I'm quite curious about someone who could make you suffer such a loss." Li Hongxiu was much more unrestrained than Su Rongrong. She burst into laughter, making Chu Liuxiang even more embarrassed.
He coughed twice and continued in a deep voice, "If possible, I hope I never meet this person again. The feeling he gives me... is too dangerous!"
When Chu Liuxiang said this, his expression was exceptionally serious and solemn. Li Hongxiu and the other two also put away their smiles and looked at Chu Liuxiang.
Then, Li Hongxiu thought for a moment and said, "Bai Yu Jing, male, nickname Longevity Sword! Currently twenty-two years old, his origin is unknown. All we know is that he appeared in the Jianghu at the age of fourteen. He is skilled in swordsmanship and is one of the most famous swordsmen of this era."
"This person is extremely mysterious. Although he is famous in the Jianghu, he has hardly ever made a move. He is always elusive, like a dragon seen, but its head and tail are not visible. This is all I know about him." Li Hongxiu looked at Chu Liuxiang with slight apology.
Chu Liuxiang comforted Li Hongxiu and then said with some worry, "Alas, if it were that easy to know his background, I wouldn't be so worried."
Su Rongrong looked at Chu Liuxiang's worried expression and said softly, "Although Bai Yu Jing is neither good nor evil in the Jianghu, there have been no rumors of him harming the world. You shouldn't worry too much."
"I hope so!" Chu Liuxiang nodded and continued, "I've heard legends about Bai Yu Jing before, saying he's 'a person who can't die.' I didn't take it seriously. After meeting him this time, I realized that the evaluation of him in the Jianghu is far from enough."
"Is he really that powerful?" Song Tian'er asked curiously.
"More than powerful! You know my martial arts. Although there are many masters in the world today, I believe that no matter how you rank them, I would be in the top fifty. But in front of Bai Yu Jing, I felt like I couldn't even block one of his swords. If we fought head-on, I would surely die within twenty moves." Chu Liuxiang's expression was extremely grave. "What's even more terrifying is that he gave me the feeling of not having any human emotions at all, like a statue in a temple. Even with thousands of expressions, varying moods, at its core, it's just a cold sculpture, detached from everything in the human world, looking down on the vastness, treating all living beings as mere grass."
"This is an unprecedented feeling. I don't know if I'm mistaken. I hope I am wrong, otherwise, with his martial arts and this terrifying state of mind, the world might fall into great chaos." Chu Liuxiang sighed deeply and looked towards the vast sky.
"Alright, don't be like this. As I said, these are all your own feelings, without any basis. And even if Bai Yu Jing does evil, there are so many heroes in the world, you don't need to worry about it." Su Rongrong stepped forward to comfort him.
"Alas, I hope so. I always feel that his coming to rob me this time was no accident, and there's a deep meaning behind it, but I can't figure it out..." Chu Liuxiang frowned and pondered, but found nothing, unable to understand He Heng's true intentions.
"Stop scaring yourself here. Even if Bai Yu Jing becomes a bandit, others will deal with him. Why are you worrying? Are you going to find him to get your clothes back?" Li Hongxiu teased Chu Liuxiang.
Chu Liuxiang gave a wry smile, but a trace of gloom lingered in his heart. He felt that this matter would not end so easily. Bai Yu Jing, this person, would definitely appear again.
Just then, a scream suddenly came from the deck. It was Song Tian'er's voice. Chu Liuxiang's eyes sharpened, and he quickly went out to the deck.
"Tian'er, are you alright?" Chu Liuxiang saw Song Tian'er trembling on the deck as soon as he arrived and quickly went to support her.
"What on earth happened? Why are you so scared?"
Song Tian'er tremblingly extended a finger and pointed below the ship, her voice trembling, "There... there's a... a corpse!"
"What?" Chu Liuxiang's expression changed. Following Song Tian'er's finger, he indeed found a floating corpse drifting up, its face extremely ferocious.
After discovering the first corpse, Chu Liuxiang quickly found the second, third, fourth, and fifth floating corpses. They were the leader of the Tianxing Gang, Zuo Youzheng, the assassin scholar Ximen Qian, one of the Three Swords of Hainan, Lingjiu Zi, the King of the Desert, Zhamu He, and others. They were all renowned experts. The fact that they all died in one place, and even involved the Tianyi Divine Water, made the matter instantly complicated...
Afterward, a disciple of the Divine Water Palace named Gong Nanyan came to him, demanding that he thoroughly investigate the theft of the Tianyi Divine Water, or face the consequences.
Chu Liuxiang had no choice. Coupled with his naturally meddlesome personality, he embarked on the path of a great detective with his companion, Xiao Yu'er, and it became unstoppable.
Although the matter was very complicated, as if filled with endless fog, Chu Liuxiang was, after all, an extraordinary person. Within a few days, he found clues and followed them. After several twists and turns, although he was very reluctant, the facts all pointed to the murderer being his close friend, the wonderful monk Wu Hua.
Behind this seemingly perfect monk's appearance was a despicable, shameless, and selfish person who killed his brother to survive and organized all of this with ambition.
In the dark night, on a narrow path, Chu Liuxiang and Wu Hua fought to the death. He won and successfully captured Wu Hua.
At this moment, under the cover of night, Wu Hua looked at Chu Liuxiang and said calmly, "What do you want from me now?"
Chu Liuxiang's gaze was extremely complex. Finally, he said slowly, "I can only expose your secret, I cannot punish you, because I am neither the law nor God, and I do not have the power to punish you."
