The man’s voice sounded strong and powerful, indicating that he possessed profound inner strength.

The two were taken aback, thinking that some powerful enemy had arrived, and hurriedly rushed out the door.

The disciples in the training ground also heard the shout. Liang Fa knew something was wrong and quickly called his disciples to rush to the main hall.

Nie Yun and Ning Zhongze drew their swords and looked around, only to hear the voices of several people coming from all directions.

“Nie Yun, Nie Yun, come out quickly!”

“No, no, the little nun was talking about Senior Brother Nie, not Nie Yun!”

“Nie Yun is Senior Brother Nie!”

“Nonsense! Nie Yun is Nie Yun, and Senior Brother is Senior Brother!”

“The little nun is younger than him, so she should call him senior brother!”

“No, no, that person’s surname is Nie, and he’s called Senior Brother!”

“That big monk also said to find Nie Yun, that they are not the same person!”

“The senior monk is talking about Nie Yun, and the young nun is talking about Senior Brother Nie. There must be two people with the surname Nie on Mount Hua!”

…

Upon hearing this, Nie Yun immediately recognized them as the six clowns from The Smiling, Proud Wanderer. Knowing that these six were highly skilled in martial arts and had eccentric temperaments, he was afraid they might harm the disciples of Mount Hua, so he quickly gathered his energy and called out, “Nie Yun is here.”

“Ah! There it is!”

“Hurry up and hurry up, or the head monk will get angry again!”

With a few whooshing sounds, six figures descended from the sky.

Ning Zhongze was startled and was about to make a move, but Nie Yun stopped her.

Six strange men with gray hair and ugly appearances stood in the courtyard, looking Nie Yun up and down.

One of them said, “Are you Nie Yun?”

A person nearby said, “No, no, the little nun said Nie Yun was wearing a blue outfit, but you see he’s wearing white.”

Another person shouted, “He was wearing blue when we met, but he’ll definitely change into white when he gets home.”

The second person said, “Why must you change into white clothes? I think you should change into red clothes when you come back, so that you can bring them with you to marry the little nun!”

Another person said, “How can a young nun get married while chanting scriptures?”

…

Without Nie Yun saying a word, the group started arguing.

The disciples who arrived later found it amusing, and Lu Dayou, being a lively person by nature, couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

Hearing the laughter, the six men turned to look at Lu Dayou. Two of them swayed and appeared beside him, flanking him on either side, before leaping back to their original spot.

Everyone was startled, never expecting that these two people’s movements were so strange, almost like ghosts.

Nie Yun was also taken aback. He possessed the Golden Goose Skill and the Floating Cloud Ten Thousand Miles Lightness Skill, and his movement skills were already quite good. However, he knew that he was still no match for the two of them in such short-distance dodging and maneuvering.

Lu Dayou was caught in a flash, his heart filled with shock and fear. Looking at the several horse-faced figures in front of him, he was so frightened that he almost cried.

The man on the left pinched his chin and said, “You were the one who laughed just now, weren’t you? Tell me, um, why aren’t you saying anything?”

The man on the right said, “If you pinch his chin and ask him, of course he won’t talk. You have to pinch his neck!” He then grabbed Lu Dayou by the neck, “Tell me, what were you laughing about just now?”

The man on the left said, “If you grab his neck, he won’t be able to speak!”

The man on the right said, “Then why can the chicken squawk when I hold it by the neck?”

Seeing that Lu Dayou’s face had turned purple, Nie Yun quickly asked, “Are you six the famous and handsome Peach Valley Six Immortals?”

Upon hearing this, the six men were overjoyed. They grabbed Lu Dayou and the other two, threw him aside, and immediately surrounded him, asking all at once, “You’re really smart, kid… how did you know our names?”

Nie Yun smiled and said, “The Six Immortals of Peach Valley are renowned heroes in the martial arts world. Meeting them today, I can see that their reputation is well-deserved. May I ask their names?”

The first person to ask Nie Yun said, “I am the eldest brother, and my name is Tao Genxian.”

The other person said, “I am the second brother, and my name is Tao Ganxian.”

Another person said, “I don’t know if he’s the third or fourth brother, his name is Peach Branch Fairy.” Then he pointed to someone next to him and said, “I don’t know if he’s the third or fourth brother, his name is Peach Leaf Fairy.”

Nie Yun suppressed a laugh and praised, “What a fine name! May I ask how to address the other two?”

One of the shorter men said, “I’ll speak. I’m the sixth brother, and my name is Peach Fruit Immortal. My fifth brother is called Peach Blossom Immortal.”

Nie Yun gave a thumbs up and said, “The names of the six heroes are really beautiful and suit you all so well. Wonderful, wonderful! If anyone had such beautiful and melodious names, they would probably wake up laughing every night.”

The six immortals of Peach Valley were overjoyed to hear this, and they danced around Nie Yun, feeling that Nie Yun was truly the best person in the world, who understood them and his six brothers so well.

The people from Mount Hua looked at each other, wanting to laugh but not daring to.

Nie Yun asked, “I see that you heroes are highly skilled in martial arts. May I ask where you learned it?”

The six people exchanged glances, and Tao Genxian said, “I can’t tell you that.”

Peach Leaf Immortal said, “That’s right, that’s right. The old man said we can’t tell anyone.”

Nie Yun’s eyes darted around, and he changed the subject: “What brings the six heroes to my Mount Hua?”

Peach Blossom Fairy eagerly said, “Let’s take Nie Yun to see the little nun.”

Peach Leaf Fairy chimed in, “Yes, yes, otherwise the great monk will get angry.”

As they were talking, the two suddenly rushed forward, their four hands reaching for Nie Yun’s arm.

Nie Yun had a rough idea of ​​what was going on, and he quickly leaped forward. Unexpectedly, Tao Ganxian also jumped over, his body like a flying wall blocking his way.

He laughed and said, “You can’t run away, come with us now.”

As he spoke, he reached for Nie Yun’s chest.

Nie Yun struck out with his palm, directly colliding with his hand.

As his hands met, Nie Yun felt an extremely strange internal force surge into his body through his palms.

Instead of resisting head-on, he used the recoil to somersault in the air and fly backward.

Seeing this, Ning Zhongze was about to make a move when Nie Yun caught sight of it out of the corner of his eye and quickly said, “Everyone, don’t move.”

At this moment, Peach Root Immortal and Peach Branch Immortal also flew over. Nie Yun raised his sword and, with the scabbard still on, struck the two of them twice in the chest with lightning speed.

Peach Root Fairy and Peach Branch Fairy cried out “Ouch!” as they felt half of their bodies go numb and fell backward.

In a few swift movements, the remaining four immortals fell from the sky after hearing their two brothers cry out. Peach Blossom Immortal and Peach Leaf Immortal quickly caught them, while Peach Stem Immortal and Peach Fruit Immortal charged directly at Nie Yun.

Nie Yun felt quite impatient. He hadn’t liked these six crazy guys when he first read the book. Being stupid wasn’t your fault, but being talkative and stubborn was just annoying.

He thought to himself, “These six people are highly skilled in martial arts and proficient in combined attacks, but their intelligence is like that of children. If they are used by others in the future, it will be very troublesome. Perhaps…” As soon as the evil thought arose in his mind, he was about to use his killing move.

Just then, a charming voice suddenly rang out: “Hehehe… Peach Valley Six Immortals, how dare you cause trouble at Mount Hua? Don’t you know that Headmaster Nie is now a young hero who commands respect throughout the martial world!”

The person’s pronunciation was somewhat strange, not like someone from the Central Plains, but it was extremely pleasant to the ear, and carried a strong sense of charm, delicate and melodious, captivating the soul.

It would make every man’s mind wander, conjuring up the image of a beautiful woman.

This woman is neither a pure and innocent girl like Yue Lingshan and Yilin, nor a dignified and virtuous wife like Ning Zhongze, but a mature and charming beauty who can bewitch men.

Upon hearing this voice, the six people suddenly shuddered, especially Tao Shixian, who almost fell to the ground.

Peach Blossom Fairy cried out, “Oh no! It’s that wicked old woman who releases snakes!”

“Who’s this wicked woman you’re talking about? It’s not me, is it? Hehehe… She’s my little darling!”

With that seductive laughter, a woman dressed in a blue cotton shirt and trousers with white floral print walked into the courtyard.

She was wearing a brightly colored embroidered apron and a pair of gold earrings the size of wine glasses.

The woman was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. Her skin was not the fair, snow-white complexion of a lady from a wealthy family, but rather a very healthy wheat color.

Her large eyes were as black as lacquer and extremely lively.

Her full, bright red lips parted slightly, revealing a row of white teeth.

A colorful belt was tied around her waist, with the hem reaching her knees.

She was barefoot, wearing straw sandals, and her beautiful ankles were adorned with delicate anklets.

She wasn’t tall, but her full and graceful figure was extremely alluring under her slightly tight clothes, especially her slender and soft waist and her full and swollen breasts, which made people swallow their saliva. She was like a plump and tender peach, as if a gentle pinch would make a sip of honey.

Behind her followed eight Miao girls around eighteen or nineteen years old, all dressed in blue cloth with floral patterns, though their belts were not as elaborate.

When the Six Immortals of Peach Valley saw her approaching, they were so frightened that they turned around and tried to escape. Unexpectedly, the woman waved her hand, and several small black shadows shot out.

“Since we’ve finally met, why are you in such a hurry to leave? Hehehe…” The woman giggled, her laughter extremely charming, like a soft little hand gently rubbing your ear, making your heart flutter.

The six immortals of Peach Valley froze instantly, their faces filled with terrifying expressions.

They were covered in colorful patterns. Peach Blossom Fairy and Peach Root Fairy had a large green centipede on their hands, Peach Leaf Fairy and Peach Blossom Fairy had a large, brightly colored spider on their heads, and Peach Fruit Fairy and Peach Branch Fairy had a small, fiery red snake coiled around their necks.

The six venomous insects were grotesque and repulsive. Although they only trembled slightly and did not attack the Six Immortals of Peach Valley, it was this threat of a bite that terrified them, rendering them completely immobile.

The woman chuckled, turned to look Nie Yun up and down, nodded and said, “You must be Nie Yun. You really are a handsome young man. No wonder my sister Fei Yan is so devoted to you! Even I like you very much!”

When Ning Zhongze and Yue Lingshan saw this woman say such blunt things in public, they both cursed inwardly, “You vixen, you have no shame!”

Qu Feiyan smiled and rushed forward, hugging the woman and saying, “Sister Lan, what brings you here?”

The woman tapped her nose. “It’s all your fault, you little devil! You left a letter and ran off, making your sister search for you for ages!”

Although she spoke reproachfully, her face was all smiles and she had a friendly expression.

She looked Qu Feiyan up and down, her expression suddenly changing. “Feifei, you’ve lost your virginity.”

Upon hearing this, everyone present blushed, and Qu Feiyan was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to crawl into.

She let out a soft moan, her face flushed, and said, “Sister Lan, you really are…”

Nie Yun coughed. “Liang Fa, you take everyone downstairs.”

Liang Fa forced a smile and agreed, then led the group away.

Nie Yun then said to Ning Zhongze, “Master’s wife, you should take Shan’er back to your room first.”

Before Ning Zhongze could speak, Yue Lingshan interrupted, “No, I want to stay here and watch you, so you don’t attract any more suitors.”

The woman turned her head and looked at Yue Lingshan’s sullen face, then chuckled, “Silly girl, men can’t wait to stick their whole bodies to a pretty girl, you see, you can’t keep them away.”

Yue Lingshan stomped her feet in anger, grabbed Nie Yun’s sleeve and shouted, “Senior brother, look at her!”

Nie Yun stroked the ruffled hair of the girl and said to the woman, “You must be Lan Fenghuang, the leader of the Five Immortals Sect. I’ve heard of you before, but I only realized how beautiful you are today! Your name is truly fitting; you are indeed a phoenix from Miao territory!”

Nie Yun knew that Lan Fenghuang disliked flowery language, so he directly and clearly praised her beauty from the start.

Lan Fenghuang was overjoyed to hear Nie Yun praise her beauty, and her face glowed. She smiled and said, “Little brother, you have such a sweet tongue. But you used that to deceive Fei Yan, didn’t you?”

Although the following sentence was also said with a smile, it carried a hint of accusation.

Nie Yun laughed and said, “Feifei calls you sister, so I’ll call you sister too. I like Feifei, and Feifei likes me, so what’s wrong with us being together? Besides, since she’s already mine, of course I’ll cherish her for the rest of my life, so don’t worry, sister.”

Lan Fenghuang’s eyes darted around as she said, “Want to marry my sister? It’s not just about having a pretty face. Let’s see what you’re really capable of today!”

Before she could finish speaking, a gleaming dagger appeared in her right hand, and with a swift movement, she thrust it towards Nie Yun’s chest.

Nie Yun smiled slightly, his longsword striking first despite being delayed, aimed directly at Lan Fenghuang’s throat.

Although the sword was not drawn, Lan Fenghuang could still feel the imposing sword intent.

She was shocked and quickly dodged to the left. Then, with a flick of her wrist, she threw the dagger in her hand like a hidden weapon, aiming straight for Nie Yun’s forehead.

Nie Yun swung his longsword horizontally, deflecting the dagger. Taking advantage of the moment, Lan Fenghuang took out a soft whip from her sleeve, and with a flick of her slender hand, it coiled around Nie Yun’s wrist like a venomous snake emerging from its hole.

Nie Yun didn’t care at all. His Dugu Nine Swords were already mastered to perfection. Without thinking, he used the “Breaking Whip” technique. The long sword touched and circled the soft whip, and the end of the whip actually turned back and flew towards Lan Fenghuang’s neck.

Lan Fenghuang was shocked. Since she started traveling the martial arts world, she had never seen anyone break her whip in one move. She quickly fell backward, put her hands on the ground, bent her body into an arch, and then did a somersault to turn over. She squatted down and wrapped the whip around her head to strike Nie Yun’s feet.

Nie Yun remained calm and unhurried, thrusting his longsword downwards and pinning the whip directly to the ground.

Lan Fenghuang reached out and tugged, but the whip didn’t budge.

Nie Yun smiled and said, “Good sister, is my kung fu alright?”

Knowing that Nie Yun’s martial arts were far superior to hers, Lan Fenghuang stood up gracefully and said with a smile, “Sect Leader Nie is truly amazing. No wonder he is famous throughout the martial arts world at such a young age.”

Then she frowned and said with a hint of resentment, “Why do you have to call me ‘sister’? Am I that old?” Her voice was tender and gentle, and it was so moving that it lingered in one’s ears.

Nie Yun said, “Who said you’re old? If you walk around the street, all the men will lose their appetite and sleep. You call me little brother first, and of course I’ll call you sister. Since you don’t like that title, how about I call you Phoenix?”

Upon hearing this, Lan Fenghuang couldn’t help but smile broadly, her whole being blooming like a spring flower, incredibly beautiful. She smiled and said, “Alright, then it’s settled from now on. You’ll call me Fenghuang’er, and I’ll call you Yun Didi.”

Nie Yun laughed and said, “Alright, Phoenix.”

As Lan Fenghuang listened to Nie Yun’s gentle voice and saw his bright smile, a sudden thought struck her, and a blush appeared on her face.

“This young Han man is so handsome! I’ve traveled all the way from Miao territory and I’ve never seen a man as good-looking as him. Sister Feiyan is truly blessed!”

She glanced at Nie Yun. “He said I was pretty as soon as we met, hehe… He’s not hypocritical like other Han people at all. He really suits my taste! I’ll test him again and see if he’s really generous or just pretending.”

Thinking of this, she clapped her hands. Two Miao women behind her took two wine pouches from their personal bags.

Lan Fenghuang smiled and said, “Brother Yun, I’m so happy to meet you today. How about I treat you to a drink?”

Nie Yun said, “Phoenix’s wine must be good wine, of course we should drink it.”

Lan Fenghuang said, “Hehe, of course. This is our Five Immortals Sect’s own brewed ‘Five Treasures Honey Wine,’ why don’t you try it?”

Nie Yun took the wine sachet, uncorked it, and smelled a fragrant aroma of wine, as lovely as flowers, which smelled very pleasant.

His eyes lit up and he laughed, “It really is good wine.” He then reached for his lips.

Lan Fenghuang quickly stopped him and said, “Brother Yun, do you know why this wine is called ‘Five Treasures Honey Wine’?”

Having read the original work, Nie Yun naturally knew the reason, but he still shook his head, feigning confusion.

Lan Fenghuang said, “The Five Treasures are five precious items of our sect. Take a look.”

As he spoke, he picked up two empty bowls, turned the wine flask upside down, and poured out the wine. With a soft thud, a few small things fell into the bowls along with the wine.

Ning Zhongze and Yue Lingshan stared at it and immediately exclaimed in surprise. Even Qu Feiyan, who had seen it many times before, turned pale.

Lan Fenghuang held the wine bowl in front of Nie Yun. The wine was extremely clear, pure white like spring water, and five small poisonous insects were soaking in it: a green snake, a centipede, a spider, a scorpion, and a small toad.

She picked up the wine bowl, took a big gulp, and laughed, “According to our Miao people’s custom, if you invite a friend to drink and eat meat, and the friend refuses to drink or eat, then that friend is not a friend.”

Nie Yun took the wine bowl and drank the entire bowl of wine in one gulp, even swallowing the five poisonous insects. Moreover, he didn’t swallow it whole, but chewed it like meat before swallowing it.

Lan Fenghuang was overjoyed. She reached out and hugged his neck, kissing him twice on the cheek. Two rosy marks immediately appeared on Nie Yun’s face, one on each side, making him look like a doll in a New Year’s painting.

Yue Lingshan quickly pulled Nie Yun over and asked loudly, “What are you doing?”

Ning Zhongze also looked angry and said coldly, “Sect Leader Lan, as a woman, please have some self-respect and do not do such immoral things.”

Lan Fenghuang ignored her and just looked at Nie Yun and smiled, “Brother Yun is indeed generous, I love you so much.”

Even Qu Feiyan’s expression turned sour. Looking at the smiling Lan Fenghuang, she suddenly felt like she had let a wolf into her house.
