Chapter 105: Unobjection if It Involves Devotion

“Sir!”
“This is a private matter of the Zi Yang Gate. It’s best for you not to interfere.”
Facing Kaixin’s interference at such a critical moment, the expression of the man with the fan and his companions turned extremely ugly. Especially since Kaixin intervened without the slightest concern for their feelings under such crucial circumstances, it led everyone to wonder what was going on. Their tone darkened, and their eyes flickered, showing uncertainty.
“I have no business with your private matters. I just want to discuss a deal with this young lady—it has nothing to do with you.”
Kaixin calmly moved from the corner to stand outside the seven men, walking past Gui Xuan as if no one else were there.
Gui Xuan didn’t want to cause any misunderstandings, so he hesitated, inwardly groaning.
His worst fears had indeed come true. With this mysterious young expert of unknown background involved, it was hard to predict how things would develop. He even began to speculate maliciously:
Could these two already know each other?
Or… could it be some melodramatic hero-saving-the-damsel scenario?
It had to be admitted—no matter which scenario it was, it wasn’t good news for them.
At that moment, Hong Shanhu recognized Kaixin’s face, her eyes flashing with surprise!
At this point, Kaixin was dressed like a hunter from the deep mountains, looking rough and unremarkable. Yet strangely, despite his young appearance, he moved with the ease and composure typical of a mature man, exuding a calm confidence that gave people a sense of security.
What surprised Hong Shanhu even more was that Kaixin’s arrival made the man with the fan and his companions act as if facing a great enemy, their tones becoming extremely strange…
The shift in the situation made Hong Shanhu ignore how he addressed her.
“How about it?”
When he reached Hong Shanhu, Kaixin stopped, glanced briefly at Gui Xuan, then turned his gaze to the injured beauty. As he examined her from head to toe, a beautiful curve formed on his lips: “I was wondering if this young lady is interested in the deal I proposed?”
“…”
Hong Shanhu blinked her bright eyes, looking at the young, handsome man in front of her, then at the man with the fan and his companions surrounding them:
“Of course! As long as you can save my life, the Jade Jewel is yours.” For some reason, even though she was surrounded by enemies, her tension faded under Kaixin’s indifferent demeanor. Her mind became clearer, and a sly glint appeared in her eyes.
Unfortunately…

Happy wasn’t some inexperienced young boy. Hearing this, he shook his head repeatedly: “No, no, no.” “The deal I’m talking about isn’t like that…” “Hm?” Red Coral’s smile remained unchanged as she pretended to be confused. “Don’t you want the Jade Pendant? Do you expect me to give myself to you as a reward?” “Of course I want the Jade Pendant. As for giving myself to you… as an extra reward, I’m not opposed to that either…” Happy’s smiling tone angered the seven men around him. This kid really didn’t take anyone seriously—flirting with the woman they wanted right under their noses! “Hmph, you men are all the same—none of you are good. Even you, little guy, are no exception.” Red Coral turned her face away, acting feigningly sulky like lovers bickering, before asking angrily, “So what exactly do you want?” With a gentle smile, Happy glanced at the seven men around him and replied, “Give me the Jade Pendant, and I’ll help you kill them.” He said it as casually as if talking about drinking water or eating. But these words instantly ignited the anger of the seven men. “How dare you!” The man with the fan narrowed his eyes, gripping his fan tightly, his face dark enough to seem like it could drip water. “Great! I originally planned to take care of this woman first before dealing with you. But now it seems… Hmph… you’re deliberately trying to mess with my Zi Yang Gate. Very good!” After a pause, the man with the fan’s expression turned cold. He threw aside his fan, slapped his waist, and a long black iron spear flew out of his pouch into his hand. “I, Xiao Bai Long, really want to see just how capable you are…” The others also activated their internal energy levels! The seven men grew more and more aggressive, their expressions grim as they aimed their weapons at Happy and Red Coral. Looking around, Happy, unfazed, turned his gaze back to Red Coral’s serious face. He stretched out his hand, his tone turning slightly colder. “If we’re doing business, give me the Jade Pendant, and I’ll kill them for you. Otherwise, act like I never showed up. When they kill you, I’ll kill them and retrieve the item from them… You have no choice.” His final words were decisive, making Red Coral’s face turn red and white as she still harbored some hopes. “Hmph, here it is!” Reluctantly, she handed the Jade Pendant to Happy, giving up in resignation. Happy took the Jade Pendant, examined it carefully, and put it in his pocket. “Hmph, I’ve recorded everything you said. If you don’t kill them, you’re being dishonest. Then either return the item to me or I’ll post your dishonest behavior online, hmph!”

Red Coral truly wasn’t an easy opponent—she even dared to threaten people in such a situation.
“Stop boasting.”
The long spear stopped, and the man with the fan spoke coldly, “My men have already entered. Now I want to see if there’s another master in this world who can rival Xiao San and Marquis Dingbei!”
Red Coral’s expression changed, and soon she noticed two people rushing in from outside the hall, joining the encirclement—those were the two Creation Realm masters who had been guarding the ancient tomb’s entrance.
The man with the fan now had a team of nine Creation Realm masters; on Happy’s side, there was only one man and one woman, with Red Coral still severely injured and thus limited in combat strength!
“It’s not too late to regret this. Hand over the Jade Jade, and you can leave,” Guixuan suddenly spoke, her gaze fixed on Happy, seemingly warning her.
Giving Guixuan a indifferent glance, Happy’s face was filled with disdain as she slowly said under the gloomy stares of the others, “Just two more people dying.”
“Kill!!”
The man with the fan roared angrily. His black iron spear spun violently, and with the power of his internal energy, it shot out like lightning.
Though the man with the fan usually appeared as a dashing scholar, among these people, aside from Guixuan, he was the strongest. His first move was a deadly secret technique, as fierce as thunder!
The other eight also attacked at the same time!
In an instant, the entire hall became like a stormy scene…
Whoosh!
With a quick step, Happy soared into the air.
“Down!”
The two newcomers, unaware of Happy’s true strength, saw her approaching and instinctively leaped into the air together, swinging their sword and axe at her.
Whoosh!
A flash of cold light—one of them realized too late that a sharp blade was heading straight for his chest, faster than lightning. He had no time to react and immediately showed a look of horror.
Thwack!
His body froze mid-air, the intense pain destroying his strength. With a scream, he crashed to the ground like a defeated beast.
The other man didn’t fare any better. It was still a sword, but the superior sword technique “Flower Hero’s Song” was clearly far more effective… The two swords crossed, slicing him and his weapon as he flew backward, blood spraying everywhere. He struggled on the ground for a long time before being able to get up.
After the first round, one dead and one severely injured—Red Coral watched with gleaming eyes, filled with amazement.
