Martial Arts: Gain a Jiazi internal force at the beginning!

Chapter 153 Hostage
The air in the guest room suddenly became stagnant.

Li Tianxin huddled in the tub, while Jiang Ran put one hand on the tub and just looked at him quietly.

silence……

I don't know how long it was silent before Li Tianxin took his head out of the water.

He exhaled a long breath:

"What if I don't admit it?"

Jiang Ran smiled.

Doesn’t this sentence just explain it, have you already admitted it?

Still he said:
"It doesn't matter if you don't admit it, I'll wash it with you."

"...You are despicable!!"

Li Tianxin stared suddenly, but then suddenly smiled sweetly:
"Brother-in-law, I knew that the first time you saw me, you plotted against me.

"At that time, I was eating in the living room, and I said that there was no one around, you can do whatever you want to me...

"At that time, he pretended to be serious, but now he is showing his true colors?"

"..."

Jiang Ran had a sad look on his face: "Can you take that face back, and then act like this daughter's family again? This is so disgusting..."

"Humph!"

The person in the bathtub snorted coldly, Jiang Ran looked up, and saw his face suddenly twitch.

There was energy walking under the skin, sometimes bulging, sometimes shrinking, and after a while, the bland face in the waxy yellow had disappeared.

Tang Huayi's delicate face appeared in front of Jiang Ran again.

The four eyes met, but Jiang Ran was speechless for a long time.

"What's wrong? Isn't this what you want?"

Tang Huayi said with a smile: "See you now, in this situation again... Oh, by the way, my [Tianji Douzhuan Great Transformation Method] only untied the face part.

"The upper body still looks like a man...how about I untie it too, and then you take off your clothes and come in, let me take care of you?"

Jiang Ran nodded, then reached out and took off his coat.

Tang Huayi was taken aback for a moment, and said quickly:

"what are you doing?"

"Didn't you just say that?"

Jiang Ran said with a smile:

"Let me in, and you can serve me well. Since you said it, why can't I do it?"

"...Brother-in-law, you don't know how fierce my sister is, if there is something out of the ordinary between you and me.

"I'm afraid I don't have a few days left to live."

Tang Huayi said with a sad face:

"So, it's better for you and me to obey the rules."

Jiang Ran was amused when he heard the words:
"Are you quite afraid of your sister?"

"Scared."

Tang Huayi nodded: "In this world, the person I fear the most... is her."

"What kind of person is she?"

Jiang Ran frowned slightly.

"You want to know?"

Tang Huayi tilted her head to look at Jiang Ran, then smiled:
"I will not tell you."

Jiang Ran also laughed when he heard the words, but there was not much smile in his eyes, instead there was a knife light.

Tang Huayi's face changed slightly, and the smile suddenly subsided:

"Brother-in-law...don't you want to kill me?"

"Hard to say."

Jiang Ran said lightly:
"It depends on how you behave."

"How do you want me to behave?"

Tang Huayi also let out a breath. She knew that everything before was nonsense, and now is the key.

She has been with Jiang Ran for so long, and she also has some understanding of Jiang Ran's character.

Knowing that he is cruel and merciless, if he really wants to kill someone, it doesn't matter whether you are a man or a woman, and there is no sympathy for you.

"Let's have a good talk."

Jiang Ran said softly:
"What's the matter with Dahua Shendao? Is there such a kung fu in the Eighteen Heavens Demon Records?"

"No, but I've got the secret book a long time ago. Just practice it and you'll be good at it, right?"

"...It's a good one to practice casually.

"My master, did you really arrange that marriage for me?"

"Yes!"

Tang Huayi replied honestly: "Moreover, this marriage has been agreed a long time ago."

"A long time ago? How long?"

"17 years ago!"

"So, what Tang Yuanwai told me at the time was all nonsense?"

"It's hard to accept a blunt statement. Naturally, we have to change the wording."

Tang Huayi said with a smile: "After all, you already know our origin, so I can't tell you that you are the son-in-law established by our Demon Sect. If we scare you away, what should we do?"

Jiang Ran frowned slightly:

"What is the relationship between my master and you?"

"Right!"

Tang Huayi didn't even think about it: "He is the enemy of our Demon Cult!!"

"fart!"

Jiang Ran's face darkened:
"Does this apply to you?"

Since he is the enemy, how could he allow his disciple to marry a demon girl?
"It's borderline!"

Tang Huayi quickly said:
"I'm really telling the truth, and there's absolutely no falsehood. Many years ago, he had a dispute with the holy woman who taught me, which caused a lot of grievances. Today, although due to various reasons, he has to cooperate.

"But we still haven't considered each other as friends.

"It's still hostile."

Jiang Ran frowned slightly, Tang Huayi's words corresponded to what the old man said when he asked Xianglin about fishing by the small river.

"For what reason do you have to cooperate?"

"I can't say that."

After Tang Huayi finished speaking, she found that Jiang Ran's face had darkened again, so she said helplessly:

"Really, I really can't say that.

"Even if you kill me, I can't tell you!"

Jiang Ran glanced at her and pondered slightly:

"Let's put this question aside for now.

"Let me ask you, in the Cangzhou Mansion, the Qinghe Gang...was destroyed by whom?"

"Don't you know all about it?"

Tang Huayi smiled and said, "My sister killed it."

"...Fan Yumou's Qinghe Gang has existed in Cangzhou Mansion for many years.

"Why did you attack them all of a sudden?"

"Speaking of this matter, it is also a coincidence."

Tang Huayi thought for a while and said:
"Speaking of the bottom line, it is too complicated, and it also involves the sky.

"It can even be traced back to a hundred years ago, when my Demon Cult was torn apart by Chu Nanfeng and Wen Ren Tian Zong, a gang of heroes.

"Of course, my Demon Cult naturally doesn't perish so easily.

"I once told you that there are only five words in the lifelong pursuit of the Demon Cult... Heavenly Demon is free!

"Heavenly demons don't die, they can't be destroyed, it's only in people's minds.

"As long as people's hearts are still there, my Demon Cult will exist forever.

"Of course, these are pretty words. After that incident a hundred years ago, my Devil's Cult has been out of order for a while.

"Besides, there are traitors among them, and the Eighteen Heavens Demon Records have been tossed everywhere.

"Some of it was stolen by those so-called righteous people.

"Some are scattered in the rivers and lakes, and they don't know where to go.

"The remaining ones were divided up by the believers at that time...

"And our lineage has always been orthodox in the Demon Cult. You have also met our leader's grandfather, isn't he very powerful?"

"...Ask that old man in Xianglin?"

"exactly!"

Tang Huayi nodded again and again, then pouted and said angrily: "It's that old man who has already arrived in Benma Town, yet dare not see this girl..."

"..."

Jiang Ran sighed.

At that time, he told Tang Huayi what he had seen in Wenxiang Lin, mainly because he wanted to ask the origin of the martial arts performed by the old man.

As a result, after Tang Huayi heard this, he went out.

At that time, I was still ignorant and ignorant, and worried about her safety.

In the end, it turned out that he was going to see his own teacher...

No wonder she was so confident then.

Tang Huayi continued:

"Getting back to the subject, our group actually doesn't want to provoke anyone, and we don't have any opinions on this world.

"In the final analysis, it is to gather what was scattered in the past.

"Get rid of those traitors who deviated from the original intention of the demon, that is, clean up the door.

"So, even though we have been rooted in Cangzhou Mansion for ten years, we are only doing honest things.

"But I didn't expect that the group of Tianshangque who got the Eighteen Heavens Demon Records would extend their claws to Cangzhou Mansion.

"Although we want to behave in a responsible manner, but the Blood Cauldron Divine Art is right in front of us, can we still watch Fan Yumou and others use it to harm others?
"That's why I took the initiative to ask Ying to break into the Qinghe gang.

"Originally, I wanted to kill Fan Jiwu and Fan Yumou, and kill all the people who practiced the Blood Cauldron Magic Art...

"After that, he retired.

"Who would have thought, a great hero descended from the sky!
"My heroic and heroic brother-in-law suddenly made a grand appearance.

"The ghosts and gods were startled by a knife, and it was directly slashed from the outer courtyard of the Qinghe Gang to the inner courtyard!"

Jiang Ran felt that these words contained a little bit of sand.

He shook his head slightly:
"So, in fact, when you were Li Tianxin, what you said was not aimless.

"Did I really ruin your plans?"

"Yes."

Tang Huayi nodded:
“After this incident, we had to leave Cangzhou Mansion for some other reasons.

"My sister is worried that you will leave Fan Jiwu alive and cause you unnecessary trouble.

"So I simply went to the Qinghe gang.

"One is to take away the secret book of the Blood Cauldron Magic Art, and the other... is to help you eliminate hidden dangers.

"Not only the Qinghe Gang, but also the Yunbu in the sky.

"We have discovered them since they came to Cangzhou Mansion.

"What their purpose is, there is no need to say more.

"My sister is worried that what they are going to do may hurt you.

"So, that night, I went to the cloud department again.

"Kill all the people there."

"So, she really has deep affection for me?"

Jiang Ran sneered.

Tang Huayi didn't smile, she gave Jiang Ran a complicated look, and sighed softly:

"I shouldn't tell you how my sister feels about you.

"One day, you will meet her.

"Let her tell you herself...

"Just, as her sister, what I want to tell you is.

"So far, only you are sorry for her, and no one is sorry for you."

"Nonsense, how have I ever failed her?"

Jiang Ran frowned.

"Dare to say?"

Tang Hua almost stood up from the bathtub with a huff of anger, and finally felt that although there was a method of transforming shape, it was not appropriate after all.

He had to say in a muffled voice:
"I tell you, I have tolerated you for a long time!
"Look at you...you are so good-looking. It doesn't matter how good-looking you are, but you still show mercy everywhere!

"Ye Jingshuang is fascinated by you, and in the name of repaying her kindness, she just wants to plot against you.

"You never refuse, and now you are still wearing the token of love that someone gave you!"

"..."

Jiang Ran looked down at the jade pendant on his body, snorted, and didn't bother to answer.

Tang Huayi became more and more angry as she talked:

"Also, how old is that girl Mingyue... It's not right, she is at the age of Ji, but it is indeed the first love.

"But, you can't hook up with your cousin, and then hook up with someone else's cousin, right? Do you want to catch them all?"

"nonsense!"

Jiang Ran stared:

"What does this have to do with Mingyue?"

"The little girl's heart is all tied to you, so you are not afraid that she will miss her life when she sees Jiang Ran? How can you bear it..."

"It's a mess."

Jiang Ran frowned: "Stop talking such useless nonsense."

"I'm not finished yet!"

Tang Huayi pointed to Jiang Ran and said:

"Mingyue stayed in Cangzhou Mansion, and Ye Jingshuang returned to Liuyun Sword Sect because of her master.

"I'm breathing a sigh of relief, and it feels like you can almost calm down.

"As a result, I turned around and met Ruan Yuqing!"

"What... does this have to do with Ruan Yuqing?"

"Why doesn't it matter? Am I the one who messed around with others and got entangled?
"I've heard that even if people have been traveling in Jianghu for so many years, even if they meet a man, they wish they could be separated by two ends of the sky. How are you, the first time we met, I entered his room.

"I don't even bother to care about you for the day-to-day eye contact!
"It's really tiring... I'm staying with you because it's my sister's intention to protect you.

"It turns out that your martial arts are so high.

"I thought, if I don't need to protect you, then I'll help my sister watch over you.

"But... this is much harder than protecting you.

"Can you please stop going around and seducing decent women?"

"If you fart again, believe it or not, I will chop you up!?"

Jiang Ran was furious, made a knife with his hand, and threatened all over his face.

"If you chop me up, you will chop me up! At worst, I will die in this bathtub!"

Tang Huayi also seemed to be willing to go all out:

"I can tell you, as long as I die, the power of the Tianji Douzhuan Great Transformation Technique will naturally dissipate, and I will completely recover my daughter's body.

"Turn around and let everyone take a look. In your room and in your bathtub, a disheveled big girl died. She was as beautiful as a flower and jade, and she was as pretty as a little fairy in the sky.

"See how you explain it to others!"

"..."

Jiang Ran almost laughed angrily: "Do you still want to lose face?"

"You are so shameless that you hook up everywhere, what face do I need?"

Tang Hua hummed angrily and said:
"Tell me what you did? In the inn on the eve of arriving at Hongfeng Mountain Villa, you were still in the same room with Ye Jingshuang... It really makes no sense!
"My sister was not willing to eat you up that night, so you can't respect and love yourself?"

"Your sister didn't do anything to me that night?"

Jiang Ran frowned.

"What do you think you'll do?"

Tang Huayi sneered: "My sister has been looking forward to marrying you since ten years ago, how could she accept such ambiguity and commit herself to you? Looking back, you are not only like Huang Liang, a dream with nothing He knew, and even resented her and hated her.

"She wouldn't be that rash.

"Even if she did something, it's definitely not what you think... Huh, it's a beautiful idea."

"...So, she still did something that night?"

Jiang Ran felt that this topic could return to the main theme.

"I don't want to tell you that."

"Do you think you still have room to bargain?"

Jiang Ran's face sank: "You know my methods."

"I know, the King of Hell is angry."

Tang Huayi said lightly:

"You can torture me, make me miserable.

"However, there are some things, some persistence, I believe I can bear it.

"My sister has paid an unimaginable price to save your life.

"All her sacrifices should be told to you in person to be meaningful."

"……cost?"

Jiang Ran looked at Tang Huayi: "What price? Save my life... This marriage is really related to my near death?"

"I said, wait until she tells you these things personally."

Tang Huayi leaned her head against the side of the bathtub, looked up at the roof:

"You can do whatever you want with me, I won't say it.

"If you don't believe me, you can use that hell king's anger on me."

"..."

Jiang Ran let out a soft breath:

"Then... tell me, why did all the members of the Tang family leave that night.

"Since you want me to marry Tang Shiqing.

"Why did you do such an inexplicable move all of a sudden?"

"Isn't it because your Nine Deaths have suddenly changed.

"Inexplicably, you were able to cure this disease.

"The original preparations suddenly became useless.

"Plus, we have our own things to do... If you can survive, there is no need to get involved with us.

"After all, it's the Devil's Cult, and you have nothing to do with us. For a junior like you who just came out of the rivers and lakes, the beginning is too tragic.

"So I just left, and it's important to go to work."

Jiang Ran pondered slightly:

"Then let me sort it out.

"That is to say, what my master has agreed with you is to trick me into marrying in Cangzhou Mansion.

"Borrow... the name of getting married to save me.

"But later you found out that there was a change in my near-death situation, and you had a way to solve it...so you gave up your original plan and left resolutely.

"Judging from what you said, Tang Shiqing did a lot of things to save me.

"That's when everything fell short.

"So, she did something to me that night that I didn't know about, but the result was very different from what you originally expected."

"...That's right."

Tang Huayi nodded: "And this matter is only good for you, not bad."

"What's the benefit?"

Jiang Ran frowned slightly.

"Do you think that the Blood Cauldron Sutra can really be resolved by relying on Good Fortune's Righteous Heart Sutra?"

Tang Huayi looked at Jiang Ran with indignation in her eyes.

Jiang Ran nodded when he heard the words, which solved a confusion in his heart.

After pondering for a while, he suddenly poured a cup of tea and brought it in front of her.

"...Brother-in-law, it's not necessary, is it?"

Tang Huayi gave a dry laugh. Seeing Jiang Ran's resolute attitude, she sighed and muttered "revenge for kindness", and drank it down in one gulp.

"I think it's necessary.

"Since you don't want to tell me, then as you wish, let your sister tell.

"From today onwards, you are my hostage.

"If you want to survive, find a way for me to meet your sister."

Jiang Ran suddenly reached out and pinched Tang Huayi's nose.

The force was a bit heavy, and Tang Huayi's nose turned red: "Otherwise, you can decide the outcome yourself. I'm not teasing you this time."
