Chapter 432 Is It Really Huang Rong?
Zhang Jianjun and Zhou Zhiruo looked at each other, and both of them read something unusual from this sudden situation. Zhou Zhiruo gently pulled Zhang Jianjun's sleeve and whispered, "Is this beggar... really Huang Rong? The Huang Rong who is so smart?" Zhang Jianjun nodded, and his heart was also full of doubts and curiosity. Although he had never seen Huang Rong in person, the legend about her had long been widely circulated in the martial arts world.
Huang Rong raised her head and looked between Zhang Jianjun and Zhou Zhiruo, as if she was evaluating the two strangers who suddenly appeared in front of her. Her smile was a bit playful and cunning, just as people said, she was extremely smart and good at disguise.
"Although my name is Huang Rong, I'm afraid I'm not the one you know." She said slowly, with a barely perceptible sense of alienation in her tone, as if she was testing, or as if she was reminding the other party that she was not a chess piece that could be manipulated at will.
Zhang Jianjun was moved when he heard this, realizing that Huang Rong might be going through some kind of misfortune, which is why she is here in such a miserable state. He smiled and decided to treat her with sincerity: "Miss Huang, we have no ill intentions. It's just that the world is so vast that there are all kinds of things. I didn't expect to meet an old friend here. I am Zhang Jianjun, and this is my friend Zhou Zhiruo. We are from..."
Zhou Zhiruo took over the conversation and said gently, "We overheard the lady's ordering. The ingredients were so precious and the cooking methods were so exquisite that it would be hard to imagine if you were not a true gourmet. Miss Huang Rong's name has long been well-known in the martial arts world, so we have naturally heard of it."
Huang Rong smiled faintly when she heard this, and her eyes sparkled with admiration. She seemed satisfied with Zhang Jianjun and Zhou Zhiruo's honesty, or perhaps moved by their sincerity. "I see, I was worrying too much. Yes, I am indeed Huang Rong, but now I am just a down-and-out woman who has lost everything and ended up here."
At this point, Huang Rong's eyes flashed with an indescribable sadness. Zhang Jianjun and Zhou Zhiruo looked at each other and could feel each other's sympathy and concern. They knew that the woman in front of them was definitely not an ordinary person, and there must be some unknown secrets behind her experience.
"Miss Huang, if you don't mind, you might as well share something with us. Perhaps we can help." Zhang Jianjun said sincerely. His tone was full of sincerity and kindness, which made Huang Rong look at him a few more times.
Huang Rong was silent for a moment, as if she was trying to gauge the credibility of the two people in front of her. Finally, she sighed softly, as if she had made up her mind: "Well, since you are so sincere, I will tell you. I am the daughter of the owner of Peach Blossom Island. Due to family misfortunes, I was forced to leave my homeland and wander around. Recently, I was hunted down and ended up here."
Hearing this, Zhang Jianjun and Zhou Zhiruo looked at each other in shock. Huang Yaoshi, the master of Peach Blossom Island, was one of the best masters in the martial arts world. It was unbelievable that his daughter would end up like this.
"Chasing? Who is chasing you?" Zhou Zhiruo couldn't help but ask. There was a hint of anxiety in her voice, and it was obvious that she was very concerned about Huang Rong's safety.
Huang Rong shook her head with a complicated expression: "This is a long story, and it involves grudges in the martial arts world, so it's not appropriate to talk about it. But I can tell you that I fled this time to find something that can protect me, and this thing is hidden nearby."
"What is it?" Zhang Jianjun and Zhou Zhiruo asked almost at the same time. They knew that this question might reveal the truth about why Huang Rong was being hunted down.
Huang Rong shook her head again, with a hint of determination in her eyes: "I can't tell you now. But if you are willing to help me, I can promise that once I find that thing, I will never treat you unfairly."
Zhang Jianjun and Zhou Zhiruo looked at each other and read the same decision from each other's eyes. They knew that helping Huang Rong was not only a sympathy for a woman in distress, but also an opportunity to change their fate.
"Okay, we'll help you." Zhang Jianjun said firmly, his tone full of firmness and determination.
Huang Rong's eyes flashed with gratitude when she heard this. She stood up and bowed deeply to Zhang Jianjun and Zhou Zhiruo: "Thank you very much, both of you. Huang Rong is very grateful. Without further ado, we will set off immediately."
The three packed up their luggage and left the inn. Huang Rong led them through the bustling market, through the narrow alleys, and finally came to a hidden valley. In the valley, the mist was lingering, like a fairyland on earth. However, under this beautiful appearance, there are unknown dangers hidden.
"This is the place I'm looking for." Huang Rong stopped and looked around, as if looking for something.
Zhang Jianjun and Zhou Zhiruo followed closely behind, observing the surroundings vigilantly. They knew that since Huang Rong was being chased here, there was probably an enemy ambush here.
"Miss Huang, are you sure the thing is here?" Zhou Zhiruo asked in a low voice, with a hint of nervousness in her voice.
Huang Rong nodded, her expression solemn: "Yes, it is right here. However, I still need some time to find the exact location."
At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps came from the depths of the valley. Zhang Jianjun and Zhou Zhiruo immediately became alert, knowing that the enemy was coming.
Huang Rong also sensed the danger, and she quickly took out a jade pendant from her bosom. The jade pendant was engraved with complex runes and emitted a faint light. She whispered, "This is the amulet my father left me. It can temporarily resist the enemy's attack. You follow me closely and don't get separated."
After saying that, Huang Rong rushed to the depths of the valley first, followed by Zhang Jianjun and Zhou Zhiruo. They knew that this battle was not only for Huang Rong, but also for their own destiny.
In the valley, the battle was about to break out. Huang Rong, relying on her superb martial arts and the protection of her amulet, fought fiercely with the enemy. Zhang Jianjun and Zhou Zhiruo were not to be outdone, and they each used all their skills to deal with the enemy.
However, the enemy was numerous and strong. They gradually felt overwhelmed and the situation became increasingly critical. At this moment, Huang Rong suddenly shouted, "Found it!"
She was holding a bead in her hand, which was shining brightly. The bead seemed to contain infinite power. Huang Rong raised the bead high, and the light on the bead burst out instantly, repelling all the enemies around her.
"This is the 'Dragon Ball', the last treasure my father left me. With it, I can protect myself." There was a hint of excitement and pride in Huang Rong's voice.
Zhang Jianjun and Zhou Zhiruo looked at the dragon ball in Huang Rong's hand and could not help but feel awe in their hearts. They knew that they had won the battle. And Huang Rong also found something that could protect herself.
"Ms. Huang, congratulations." Zhang Jianjun said with a smile, his tone full of sincerity and blessings.
Huang Rong looked at Zhang Jianjun and Zhou Zhiruo, her eyes sparkling with gratitude. She knew that without the help of these two people, she might never find the dragon ball. She bowed deeply to them and said, "Thank you very much, I will never forget you."
The three of them smiled at each other, knowing that this experience would become one of the most precious memories in their lives. They continued to move forward, writing their own legends in the arena.
