Chapter 1094 [Immortal Sword 4]
The man in front of him saw Qiu Shuang blocking him and said, "What are you doing? Do you want to kill someone in broad daylight? Is there any law here?"
Lin Yueru also came down from the stage and said, "Sir, since you have defeated me, you are the son-in-law of our Lin family. You are also my husband-to-be, Lin Yueru."
"No, I'm not. I have a wife, and this is her." The man pointed at Ling'er and said.
"Young Master, please be careful with your words. My young master doesn't have a husband. She is still single." Qiu Shuang said seriously.
"That's right, young lady, please keep an eye on your husband and don't ruin the reputation of our master." Anu said with disdain.
"Madam, do you really not recognize me? I am Li Xiaoyao, and we are married couple." The man in front of her (that is, Li Xiaoyao) said anxiously.
"Don't try to make connections. Mr. Li and I have never met each other and don't know each other. Miss Lin, please take your future husband away." Ling'er said coldly.
"You really don't recognize me?" Li Xiaoyao said unwillingly.
"My master is the young master of Taohua Valley. He is of noble status. How can an ordinary person like you afford to marry him!" Qiu Shuang said proudly.
"Peach Blossom Valley?" Someone in the crowd exclaimed, "Is this the mysterious sect mentioned in the legend? I heard that someone once tried to break into it, but not only did he fail to come out alive, but even his body could not be found. Since then, Peach Blossom Valley has gained a terrifying name - Death Valley. I didn't expect these three people to come from Peach Blossom Valley!"
Hearing this, Li Xiaoyao couldn't help but frowned, looked at Ling'er in confusion, and asked: "Ling'er, haven't you always lived in Xianling Island? How can you be related to Taohua Valley?"
Ling'er looked confused, shook her head and said, "Xianling Island? What is that place? I have always lived in Taohua Valley and have never heard of the name Xianling Island."
Li Xiaoyao was getting more and more confused. He continued, "But your name is Zhao Linger, and you and your grandmother have always lived on Xianling Island. Later, I accidentally broke into Xianling Island and married you. Don't you remember?"
Ling'er was shocked. She never thought that the person in front of her knew her name. Her master had mentioned some things about her life experience to her. Could this person really be related to the Moon Worship Sect? Apart from this, Ling'er couldn't think of anyone else who would know her name.
After all, she was only three or four years old when she left, and she had been living in Peach Blossom Valley all these years, never setting foot outside. So, how did this person know her name? What puzzled Ling'er even more was where did they get her portrait?
Various possibilities flashed through Ling'er's mind, and the only reasonable explanation was that this person's identity was extraordinary.
Suddenly, Ling'er had an idea. She blinked her big, lively eyes and said in a sweet voice, "What a coincidence! My name also contains the word 'Ling'er.' But my last name is not Zhao. My last name is Murong. My full name is Murong Ling'er."
Upon hearing this, Li Xiaoyao couldn't help but frown and muttered to himself: "Murong Ling'er? How is this possible? You must be Zhao Ling'er. With this appearance and temperament, there is absolutely no mistake." As he spoke, he looked at Ling'er carefully, trying to find a flaw on her face.
Ling'er and the other two naturally also heard Li Xiaoyao's muttering. After they looked at each other, they understood each other and saw the same idea in each other's eyes - this Li Xiaoyao was no ordinary person. It seemed that they had to stay here for a few more days to find out Li Xiaoyao's true intentions.
At this time, Lin Yueru's eyes wandered between Li Xiaoyao and the three women, and she was hesitant in her heart, not knowing who to believe. However, her good impression of Li Xiaoyao made her more inclined to believe him in her heart. No matter what, she decided to take Li Xiaoyao home.
Lin Yueru took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and then smiled and said to Miss Murong and the other two women: "Miss Murong, and these two ladies, I wonder if the three of you are willing to stay in the Lin Mansion for a while? I know that the three of you are from Taohua Valley, and I have admired people with strong martial arts since I was a child. So, if the three ladies don't mind, can you stay in the mansion for a few more days and teach me some martial arts?"
Qiu Shuang thought for a moment, then answered readily, "Sure, then the three of us will bother you."
"No, no, it's my honor that the three young ladies are willing to stay in my house. Please, please come in." Lin Yueru said hurriedly, and at the same time stretched out her hand to make a gesture of invitation, leading Ling'er and the other two into the Lin Mansion.
Li Xiaoyao saw Lin Yueru and the others walking away, and he was extremely anxious, so he hurriedly tried to catch up. However, just as he was about to step out of the gate of the Lin Mansion, he was suddenly blocked by a group of Lin family servants.
Li Xiaoyao was furious when he saw this, and shouted, "How dare you stop me? I am your young lady's fiancé, and the future son-in-law of your Lin family. How can I allow you to be so rude!"
The servants looked at each other, not knowing what to do. Although they were ordered to guard the gate, they had no way to refute what Li Xiaoyao said. After all, what Li Xiaoyao said was true. He was indeed the fiancé of Miss Lin Yueru of the Lin Mansion, and his status was so high that servants like them could not easily offend him.
After a brief silence and staring at each other, the servants finally decided to let Li Xiaoyao enter the mansion first. They thought that since Li Xiaoyao was the young lady's fiancé, it shouldn't be a big problem to let him in.
Seeing the servants make way, Li Xiaoyao walked into the Lin Mansion without hesitation. However, when he entered the mansion, he found that Lin Yueru had already disappeared with Ling'er and others, and it was difficult to find even a trace of them.
Li Xiaoyao became increasingly anxious. He looked around the house, trying to find where Lin Yueru had gone. At this moment, he caught a glimpse of a man who looked like a servant not far away, so he hurried forward to grab him and asked anxiously, "Where is your young lady? Take me to see her quickly! I am the future son-in-law of your Lin family. How can you let me wait here?"
The servant was startled by Li Xiaoyao's sudden action, but seeing that he was so aggressive, he did not dare to neglect him and quickly replied: "Don't worry, sir. Our young lady just went to the garden and will be back soon. Please follow me to the guest hall and sit for a while. When the young lady comes back, I will take you to see her."
Although Li Xiaoyao was somewhat dissatisfied, he thought that he was a distinguished guest of the Lin Mansion after all, and the other party had already promised to take him to see Lin Yueru as soon as possible, so he could not say anything more. So, he had to follow the servant to the guest hall and sat down on a chair.
The servant then brought Li Xiaoyao a cup of fragrant tea and said, "Sir, please be patient and drink some tea to moisten your throat. Our young lady will be here soon."
Li Xiaoyao picked up the teacup and took a sip. The fragrance of the tea made him feel a little calmer. He thought to himself that maybe Lin Yueru was just going to the garden for a short stay and would be back to see him soon. After all, he was her legitimate fiancé. When he saw Lin Yueru, he would find out where she had arranged Ling'er to live.
