The female supporting role is crazy about the male lead

How could she not recognize this bell, even though it was so worn out?

She put it around her younger brother's neck with her own hands before entering the valley.

But the master had clearly said before that her brother had been killed by the mountain bandits when they massacred the village?

He had taken her to see his home at the foot of the mountain before, and she saw her brother's grave with her own eyes. After returning, she devoted herself to practicing in Half Moon Valley.

So, what's going on with this bell now? Is my brother still alive?

Early in the morning of the next day, the "Martial Arts Competition for Treasures" conference started in the courtyard with the beating of drums and gongs.

The garden that was full of weeds and trees yesterday has now been cleared of a large area and a huge arena has been built.

Those who participate in the treasure hunt will fight on it, and the winning warrior will finally have the opportunity to choose Hu Qing's treasure collection.

The final winning prize is so tempting, including rare martial arts secrets and precious elixirs, each of which is a treasure that masters are eager to get.

This attracted core members from all major sects to gather here, wanting to get a piece of the pie.

As soon as the conference started, the arena was already bustling with activity, and the entire venue was filled with the sounds of swords and cheers.

Xia Ran and her group of six were sitting in the most conspicuous position below the ring, waiting for news from Xiao Bai.

Seeing that several waves of people had been coming and going on the stage, and the sun was rising higher and higher, she finally received a message from Xiaobai, "0113:, Bai Xingchen will arrive in half an hour."

Half an hour, there's still time.

Then he turned around and gave Ting Ye a wink. Ting Ye nodded secretly and whispered something to the maid beside her.

Everyone was watching the fight on the ring with great interest. Some were so excited that they even stood on the edge of the ring, waving their swords to add to the fun.

The atmosphere on the field continued to rise, and everyone was aroused.

"Oh my good Lord!"

Only a miserable old woman's voice was heard, shrill and hoarse crying, like a devil's sound piercing the ears.

Even the two people competing on the ring were so shocked by this sudden move that they lost their breath and barely managed to stop.

Everyone:...

Following the sound, he saw an old woman in white clothes with a haggard face, leading a group of people. The servants who followed her were still trying to persuade her, but it seemed to be futile, so she trotted towards Hu Qing.

Hu Qing's eyes narrowed, "What's going on?"

"Boss, this group of people suddenly showed up at the gate. They knew we were holding the martial arts conference and insisted on breaking in. We couldn't stop them."

"Where is Bai Xingchen?" "We are looking for Half Moon Valley." "Where is he? Get him out now!"

The group of people have started to make a lot of noise.

The martial artists nearby heard Ban Yue Gu and Bai Xing Chen gathering around and began to murmur.

Others seemed to be attracted by the noise as well, and Ting Ye winked at the old woman who was leading the group.

The old woman received the signal, her eyes rolled around, and she shouted, clapped her hands, and was about to kneel down.

Everyone was shocked. How could they bear to hear this old woman kneeling on their knees?

The sword-wielding man who was closest to the old woman was about to help her up when a woman in white suddenly appeared from the side and in the blink of an eye had already grabbed the old woman's hands and lifted her up.

"Oh, old man, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling wronged?" Xia Ran asked in a gentle voice, his eyes full of concern.

When someone asked this question, the people behind started talking at once, "We are going to find Bai Xingchen, call Bai Xingchen out quickly." "If you don't hand him over, we will destroy this place."

As he said this, he was about to pick up the axe or stick in his hands and smash it to the side.

"Hey, hey, hey," Yan Fei hurriedly stopped the man and patiently persuaded him, "Don't smash the things here! Let's talk slowly about what's going on. So many martial arts heroes have gathered here today, are you still afraid that we can't solve your problems?"

Lin Feiyue turned around and shouted, "That is to say, we are here and will definitely seek justice for you, don't you agree?"

The two of them sang in unison, and with just a few words they managed to defeat all the martial arts masters present.

"Yes, yes, don't worry, old man. I, Jian Chaozong, will use this sword to kill those ungrateful, treacherous and sinister villains in the world!"

"And my Qinglin Sect..."

……

Many chivalrous men in the martial arts world expressed their willingness to seek justice for the old woman.

Only then did the old woman and her group agree to sit down and talk it out.

A group of people sat around a fine nanmu table. Their shabby clothes and ragged attire were out of tune with this noble and refined environment, which only increased their sympathy in the eyes of others.

Xia Ran ran around serving them tea and snacks, and her attentive and gentle appearance won the favor of all the knights.

The old woman wiped her tears, took a sip of hot tea, and spoke with trembling lips: "My lords, I am from that Stone Village. I only have one grandson left in my family who depends on me for survival."

"The thief Bai Xingchen kidnapped my grandson and took him to the mountain half a year ago, and the child ended up like this. Come, Xiaohua, come here." As he said this, he asked a child in the crowd to come forward.

The child was wearing a black hooded coat that covered his face even in the hot weather.

Now that the old woman has taken off his hood, the little face revealed looks adorable as ice and snow, but there are noticeable black lines on his face, and one of his eyes is also dark, making him look nothing like a normal child.

It was one of the children from Half Moon Valley that Mu Qingyin let go.

There were exclamations from the crowd.

Mu Qingyin had been standing quietly by the side without saying a word. When she saw the child, she was shocked and quickly grabbed Xia Ran's hand, "Ran Ran, this..."

Xia Ran patted the hand that was holding hers, indicating that she shouldn't worry, and she felt relieved.

These children on the mountain were indeed found by her. The heroine let the children who still had evil spirits in the group down the mountain. Sooner or later, they would die due to the violent aura.

She also wanted to save them, so she asked Huaer to find them all a few days ago and fed each of them a pill of Zhuanhuan Dan. The evil energy in their bodies had been floating around, and the Zhuanhuan Dan could absorb this energy.

Fortunately, the children recovered well, but she owed Hu Qing more money...

Everyone is still shocked or saddened by the black lines on the child's face.

A woman in white walked up as if in disbelief, and touched the child's face, but was burned. Xia Ran immediately moved her fingers away, with a wisp of black gas still coming out of her fingertips.

Lin Feiyue frowned, pulled her hand over, and was about to suck away the remaining black air on her fingers, but the woman pulled her fingers away and chuckled.

She still has some use for it!

She raised her finger, as if she was in great pain from the black energy. Her forehead was covered with cold sweat. "Everyone, please help me take a look. What kind of energy is this?"

The heads of all the major sects came forward and looked at it carefully.

An old man with a beard stroked his beard and said, "This aura is domineering and sinister. I have been in the martial arts world for many years, but I have never heard of it. Brother Lin, come and take a look."

Another old man in blue stepped forward and also shook his head, "I haven't seen it either. It looks like it is the product of internal force. Why don't you, the leader of the martial arts sect, take a look?" He motioned a middle-aged woman in black to step forward.

Among all the major sects, only the martial arts sect practices gathering qi into strength. If they have never seen it, I am afraid that there is no record of any existing martial arts in the entire martial arts world.

The woman in black stepped forward to take a closer look and shook her head, "My martial arts sect has never practiced this kind of thing."

That's strange. In such a huge martial arts world, there isn't a single person who can match it.

Hu Qing leaned on the table with his hands, looking at the bewildered crowd gathered in a circle, and said leisurely: "Since it is not a righteous practice, why can't it be an evil way?"
