Chapter 157 - 157. If She Was A Woman
While Ju Xian and Wan Lie, both smiled faintly. As for Xue Ning, the girl was rooted to the spot. Feeling stupid with herself, because she panicked whereas Fu Xie Lan still looked normal.
Releasing the hand grips on Qiao and Lim\'s arms, the bodyguard turned towards Fu Xie Lan.
One of their hands was carrying a sword, aiming it at Fu Xie Lan while running towards the girl.
Of course, Fu Xie Lan did not remain silent. The girl dodged and at the same time she kicked the arms of the two bodyguards alternately, as a result, their swords fell, bouncing to the ground.
Seeing that, Rin Gyu became furious. He was a noble-blooded human without any martial arts. The wealth of his family made him feared because he could hire or even employ hundreds of people to guard the family. The Rin family is the second largest family after the Dhong family in the Zu kingdom.
"Why are you all silent?" shouted Rin Gyu to all his bodyguards.
"Arrest him," he added.
All of the bodyguards who had escorted Wan Lie, Ju Xian, and Xue Ning immediately let go of the three.
However...
"Where do you think you\'re going? Huh?" Wan Lie said in a cold voice, he grabbed the guard\'s arm.
"Don\'t forget me, damn it!!" Xue Ning cursed along and do the same. She\'s been wanting to beat those humans since earlier. But did not get permission from Fu Xie Lan.
Seeing the way Fu Xie Lan treated Rin Gyu\'s bodyguards, Xue Ning suddenly became excited.
Ju Xian did the same. The three of them didn\'t let the bodyguards just leave.
And seconds later, a fight broke out, right in the courtyard of the tavern. Everyone in the tavern came out and gathered to watch. Even those who passed the road in front of the tavern or were in the vicinity of the place immediately stopped their activities and joined the gathering. Before long, the place was already surrounded by the residents of the Zu kingdom\'s city.
Only a few minutes later, the fight was finished. No wounds could be found on Fu Xie Lan\'s body and the others. As for the guards, some of them suffered broken bones, while the rest seemed to be lying on the ground unconscious.
"There are more?" said Fu Xie Lan to the crowd.
"If anyone else wants to deal with me, come forward."
Qiao and Lim were frozen on the spot watching Fu Xie Lan and company finish off the guards in just a few minutes.
Now both of them could understand, Fu Xie Lan\'s previous nonchalant attitude. Turns out he didn\'t do it for no reason. The two Qian Cheng members breathed a sigh of relief. Tucked in a feeling of pride can be felt both, it turns out they are with strong people.
"Eh? Where\'s that bastard?" Xue Ning said when her eyes couldn\'t find the whereabouts of the nobleman who gave the order to drag them over.
Wan Lie and Ju Xian who heard that also looked around, and it turned out to be true. As far as their eyes could see, there was no Rin Gyu anywhere.
"Let\'s go!" said Fu Xie Lan suddenly walking away.
"Eh, where are you going Xie Lan?" Xue Ning asked immediately approaching the girl.
"Wait a minute," the girl said walking away.
Fu Xie Lan entered the tavern and left some gold coins on the table where she had been sitting before then came back out. People were still crowding around, even though there was no more fighting. Many of them were curious about Fu Xie Lan and company because this was the first time that there was a lowly person fighting nobles in the past few years, especially those from the Rin family.
A few minutes before the bodyguards fell, Rin Gyu sneaked out of the crowd silently and quickly got away from there. Leaving the two friends and the woman who was with them earlier. The man didn\'t wait until the fight was over, because he already knew how his guards would end after watching them fight for a few seconds.
with a sour face and burning anger, because he felt humiliated by the lowly, Rin Gyu returned to his residence in the Rin family. In the man\'s heart, he had better back off so as not to be humiliated any further.

Without anyone noticing, a man in a black robe witnessed everything without missing a beat. His eyes never left Fu Xie Lan\'s figure. A faint smile crept onto his lips and slowly backed away, disappearing from there.
"Where are we going, sir?" Qiao asked approaching Fu Xie Lan followed by Lim who seemed to be in a hurry. Both of them are older than the girl and the people she is with.
Previously, Qiao felt unwilling to be respectful to the four people, especially to Fu Xie Lan who looked younger than the others, but out of fear that she might be killed at any time, she was forced to do so.
Different from now, the feeling of unwillingness that was felt earlier turned into a feeling of respect. Now they knew the reason why the other three people namely Wan Lie, Ju Xian, and Xue Ning treated Fu Xie Lan so well.
Even though if you look closely, the age of the petite man is about a dozen years old. But the aura of leadership that is so authoritative can be felt from him.
Fu Xie Lan stepped out of the crowd without any intention of answering Xue Ning and Qiao\'s question. Wan Lie, Ju Xian, Xue Ning, Qiao, and Lim immediately followed behind him. Even the two hunting men slightly puffed out their chests in front of the crowd out of pride.
As Fu Xie Lan and her group left, the crowd also dispersed. Yet some of them still stood on the spot watching Fu Xie Lan\'s group disappear at a crossroads.
As did the two figures of youth with noble clothes attached to their bodies.
"I bet, the lives of the nobles will soon be confused with them," said one of the two men. Just a moment ago the two were in the same tavern as Fu Xie Lan. If you look closely, they seem to be in their twenties.
"If only she was a woman, huh..... Too bad," replied the other.
"So why? Isn\'t there a woman among them? Which man suddenly made you think like that? Hahaha."
"Never mind, forget it," said one of them ending their conversation.
"Let\'s go," he said again.
"Hey, wait for me," said the other young man immediately followed.
"I didn\'t expect to witness such an interesting incident this early. Hahaha really satisfied to see Rin Gyu being treated like that. Rin\'s family, they really should be taught a lesson so as not to act arbitrarily as if there were only Rin\'s in this kingdom."
"Shh, lower your voice," said one of the young men when he saw his friend had followed him.
