Chapter 327: 327: The Power of a Single Move is Actually So Formidable
“Actually, this is a good thing for you in the end. There is always a gain in loss in this world, right! This sword hanging over your head is also an opportunity an opportunity for you to show off your skills.”
Liu Sisi raised her eyebrows in surprise: “How so?”
Nan Tianzong thought for a moment: “Think about it, everyone fears the so-called Li Sect, but now the Li Sect is protecting you, so…”
“So, I can go anywhere in the world? Is that it?”
Liu Sisi said happily.
“Wrong! You fool!”
Nan Tianzong looked disappointed: “What are you going to do in the world? With the Li Sect backing you, you can do business or enter officialdom! You will have a smooth journey and rise step by step!”
“No, that’s not right! You got one thing wrong!”
Liu Sisi was delighted at first, but then she shook her head: “Money is just a worldly possession, having enough is enough. Too much will only bother me. As for becoming an official… I, Liu Sisi, a woman, what is the use of being an official? It’s better to live my own little life seriously. That’s what I really want.”
Nan Tianzong was dumbfounded!
This was the second time he heard such words from her.
“Is that what you really think? I was going to introduce you to some friends in the business world later, but now that you’ve said this…”
“Of course it’s my true feelings. But, there’s no harm in making money, right?”
Liu Sisi laughed: “Where are the friends you mentioned? Take me to see them, but don’t neglect them.”
“You, come on! They’re in the side hall over there. I’ll take you.”
As Nan Tianzong spoke, he led Liu Sisi towards the other side.
Liu Sisi looked back, noticing Ying’er and Xuan’er staying with Di Yelei on the other side, surrounded by several wealthy-looking businessmen, seemingly discussing something. She then followed with relief.
Going to the so-called side hall with Nan Tianzong, they indeed saw several officials. As soon as the two of them entered, the officials stood up.
“These are the managers I didn’t get a chance to introduce a couple of days ago. You should get to know each other. When I’m not around, Sisi can make decisions on my behalf.”
“Yes, boss.” The several people hurriedly paid their respects.
Later in the afternoon, Nan Tianzong introduced various people to her, including officials and gentry. Although Liu Sisi was not very interested in them, she understood that Nan Tianzong did this to help her expand her business horizons.
After bidding farewell to everyone, she casually chatted with Nan Tianzong as they walked.
“The fat man just now is the supplier for the bookstore. You can also find him for supplies in the future, and there will be quite a few discounts. Of course, if there is any problem with the goods, you can also go directly to him…”
“I understand. If there’s anything, I’ll go to him. But what about you? Why did you suddenly say so much today? Don’t you still have me in case of any accidents?” Liu Sisi said with a smile.
Nan Tianzong shook his head: “Actually, you should have known from the beginning that I didn’t open the bookstore to make money.”
“Then why did you come?” Liu Sisi was curious.
Nan Tianzong was silent for a moment before continuing: “At that time, it was because my family wanted me to go through a test. Among them, starting a business from scratch was one of the tests. I chose to open a bookstore in this small town because I didn’t have to do anything.”
“Brother Nan, this is the first time I’ve discovered that you can actually be cunning and slippery like this.” Liu Sisi said while laughing.
“Not at all, I…”
As they walked and talked, they turned a corner and came across more than a dozen masked men in black. Seeing the two of them, the men in black raised their big blades and attacked without saying a word.
“Ah! ”
Liu Sisi was startled, instinctively letting out a scream. She stared wide-eyed at the big blade coming down on her head, completely forgetting to dodge.
She hadn’t expected her journey through time to end like this!
She initially thought that coming here was a gift from Heaven, but it ended just like that! It was indeed hard to predict the outcome…
Her mind was filled with a jumble of chaotic thoughts!
Scenes from her two lives flashed through her mind like a slide show, making it hard for her to distinguish reality from fantasy.
Suddenly, a strong force came from her waist, and she woke up from her trance. The noises of fighting around her returned to her ears, and she noticed she was now spinning in the air.
Turning her head, she realized that her tongue had been taken by a cat, rendering her speechless!
The person holding her waist and fiercely fighting the men in black was none other than the scholar she despised — Nan Tianzong!
Nan Tianzong was dressed in a light blue gown, the cold wind blowing fiercely.
With a light smile on his face, he calmly dealt with the attacks of the men around him.
“You all, how dare you break into an official residence and kill people in broad daylight! Who gave you the courage? I, the Young Master, am here to avenge the dead!” His clear voice rang out.
A flash of cold light!
Layers of sword shadows filled the surrounding area.
Snackbar of sword light suddenly pointed forward, driving the surrounding air to howl and fall from the sky!
The wind rose!
The trees shivered, flowers and plants were torn from the ground.
Leaves flew everywhere!
Boom!
A fir tree next to them was the unlucky one, getting cut by the sword light, and then exploded into splinters with a loud noise.
Wood chips flew in all directions.
It seemed as if the ground itself shook, stirring up a cloud of dust.
Liu Sisi was startled!
Nan Tianzong’s power was so strong with just one move? It seemed even more powerful than the man she had encountered on the Heilong Mountain that day!
Thump! Thump! Thump!
The men in black continued their coordinated attacks. After Nan Tianzong’s move, three men in black lay on the ground, vomiting blood.
Undeterred, the rest of the men in black continued their assault without a word.
Nan Tianzong remained calm, his face showing a faint smile!
Instinctively, Liu Sisi held tightly to his clothes and waist, afraid that she would be thrown out by mistake.
In just a moment, the men in black had closed in.
The layers of blade light quickly sealed off the duo’s escape routes and slashed down!
Nan Tianzong laughed loudly!
Liu Sisi instinctively screamed. Before she could see clearly, their figures had mysteriously escaped from the blade light, landing on an eaves.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The sound of breaking through the air followed!
Liu Sisi’s eyes couldn’t keep up. A blur in her vision, and the darts that broke through the air rushed straight towards the two of them.
