Those years, those jokes, those scum

Chapter 164: Jianghu Dispute, the Chief is Not Obedient 8

"Catch the flower thief?"

"Hmph." Xu Qingluo glanced at the newcomer and snorted heavily, his face full of displeasure.

"Yes, recently a flower thief appeared in Luan'an City, and several innocent women have been persecuted. We have been chasing him for more than half a month, but although the evil thief is not very good at martial arts, he is very good at light footwork. He escaped time and time again." Li Youan clenched his fist and pounded the table, looking annoyed and self-blaming.

This is the first time Leng Nuan really meets the male protagonist. How should I put it? Although this is a cool story, the male protagonist in the original novel is not the traditional Long Aotian type who always "shows off his domineering side", "talks with second-year lines", and "women fall in love with him at first sight and men bow down to him at first sight". He has ambition and conscience, is affectionate but not promiscuous, has scheming but also treats people sincerely. Leng Nuan is satisfied with this kind of male protagonist, at least he is a normal person.

"Brother Li, don't blame yourself. You are the one who has suffered the most." Shangguan Qing looked at his red eyes with heartache because he had not had enough rest for several days and nights.

This scene made Xu Qingluo depressed again. However, she couldn't say anything now. When she thought about her good plan being interrupted, she became furious. She stared at Leng Nuan with hatred and cursed in her heart. It was all this damn guy's fault.

What does it have to do with her? Leng Nuan ignored Xu Qingluo who wanted to kill her with his eyes. This plot is indeed not the main plot, but the development of the male protagonist's harem relationship. It is also from this scene that the relationship between the male and female protagonists officially begins. However, she only knows the overall picture and does not know the details, so the ending of the flower thief is naturally not going to be good.

"I heard that Miss Leng's Qinggong is also very good. If you can help, we will be able to take down the villain next time he appears." Shangguan Qing, who was worried that she couldn't help everyone because she didn't know martial arts, suddenly stared at Leng Nuan and asked sincerely. She remembered Shuang'er said that this person must have extraordinary martial arts to be able to leave the heavily guarded Holy Moon Sect quietly. With her help, Brother Li won't have to work so hard alone. Shangguan Qing said with a little idea in her heart.

After hearing this, everyone in the room focused their attention on Leng Nuan, who had a calm and composed look on his face.

There was no scene in this story segment where she appeared. Leng Nuan felt strange when she thought of this. If she was following her guess, she shouldn't be here at this time. Why was she teleported to this segment? And the task bar did not show the requirements of the side quest at the beginning. So this was not within the scope of the task. Then there was only one reason...something caused the change.

"Ms. Leng?" Shangguan Qing called out in confusion.

"Just call me Leng Nuan." She was still not used to being called like that.

"By the way, I would like to ask how much reward there is for catching a thief?"

"You, what did you say?" As soon as Leng Nuan said this, everyone's eyes turned to her again. But this time they were shocked.

"Uh, Miss Leng. People like us who are children of the martial arts world should..." Li Youan was a little bit unbelievable. Although he entered the martial arts world relatively late, he also knew that it was their duty to be chivalrous and eliminate evil and protect the good.

"Oh! They claim to be the legendary famous and upright sect, but they are nothing but a greedy person who is obsessed with money." Xu Qingluo seemed to have caught something on them. He held his head high and chest puffed out as he criticized them in a high-spirited manner.

"But even a noble family needs to eat." Leng Nuan said seriously. She also has to rely on the bonus to support her family.

"..." That's true. But I still feel like something is wrong. Everyone felt strange.

"Moreover, the crime committed by that flower thief is so serious that his only fate is to go to the execution ground." Leng Nuan continued.

"That's the extent of his usefulness."

It seems that what you said makes sense~

I don't know if what Leng Nuan, the so-called true and upright person, said was too subversive to their cognition. Anyway, no one discussed this topic anymore. Everyone started to discuss the pattern of the next appearance of the flower thief.

"You are a little beyond my expectation." After what happened just now, Qin Shuangjiang smiled easily, but his eyes were full of doubt. Speaking of which, no one has ever seen Xuanfeng Sect. Is this person really a disciple of Xuanfeng Sect? Even if they have been in seclusion for a long time and the younger generation of Jianghu people know very little about them, but that is Xuanfeng Sect!

You're a big villain in the early stage, but you hang out with the protagonists every day and have a close relationship with them. Is that really okay?

Hey, wait!

Leng Nuan looked at Qin Shuangjiang intently. In the beginning of the play, the young new leader was actually confident and serious about developing the sect. Although the Holy Moon Sect was called a demon sect by most people in the martial arts world at that time, they had actually been peaceful in recent years because of the internal setbacks caused by the fight for the position of the leader. They were even more worried that the disciples of the sect would be attacked as soon as they went out in the later period.

"What are you looking at..." Qin Shuangjiang raised her eyebrows and questioned. The pair of eyes that were always gentle when looking at her revealed a sharp light, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

"Nothing." Leng Nuan looked away, deep in thought. In her current state, she wouldn't do so many crazy things. Was it because she hated the male protagonist and wanted to destroy him because she couldn't get him? No, her intuition told her that it should be more than that. Even if it was for the so-called setting -

"My lady, you are still angry~" Xu Qingluo's personal maid Xu Qiao advised her while helping her wash up: "I know you don't like these people living in our house, but there is nothing we can do now. The master is also thinking about your safety."

As the richest family in Luan'an City, Xu Qingluo is the only child of the Xu family, so naturally they tried their best to hire someone to protect him. That hateful flower thief harmed not only the young girls of farmers but also the young ladies of officials. It can be said that he did not pick the most beautiful, but only picked what he wanted. Now the people in the city are in a panic, who knows if it will be their family's turn next. I just hope that the evil thief can be brought to justice as soon as possible.

Humph, she just hates these so-called famous and upright people. Just because Shuangjiang doesn't like them, she can't like them either. Suddenly, Xu Qingluo seemed to have thought of something, and his expression changed from displeasure just now. He immediately raised the corners of his mouth with joy.

Isn't this also an opportunity? If she can take advantage of this opportunity to deal with those two guys who are in the way, then there will be no one standing in the way of her Shuangjiang and Qing'er!
