Male superiority and female superiority: forced love

Shougou Mountain is indeed the most dangerous mountain in Dayong. Even the bighead carp are twice as big as those in other places.

Jinshan and his friends had twenty-three kinds of condiments in their pockets, which eased Ruan Chuyin's depressed mood a little.

Salt, dried onions, chilies, garlic, bay leaves, sugar, freshly picked coriander and wild onions.

Ruan Chuyin picked these and asked her friends to pick some fresh mushrooms.

They stared intently at the pair of slender, white jade-like fingers dancing on the fat fish, wishing they could turn into fish and "enjoy" it.

Even before it was put on the shelves, an indescribable fragrance lingered at the tip of my nose.

Chi Youliang curiously dipped his finger into a little sauce from the fish belly and tasted it on the tip of his tongue. The taste was unique, but the amount was a little small, and it seemed a little insufficient.

"Achi." Yan Shanting looked at his greedy and out-of-control appearance, and glared at him with sharp eyes, scaring the finger raised in the air so much that it immediately retracted.

"Okay, you can grill it now." Ruan Chuyin knew that everyone was hungry, so she gave the six marinated fish to them first. The remaining four had not been marinated yet, so they had to wait a little longer.

After a cup of tea, the aroma of grilled fish began to slowly permeate the air. The disciples of Xuantian Sect lost their mind to work, staring at the campfire with blinking eyes and taking deep breaths.

Yan Shanting had never been one for food, but he was completely captivated by the aroma. His eyes slowly shifted to Ruan Chuyin, and he exclaimed inwardly. She really knew how to grill fish!

"It's done." Ruan Chuyin stared intently at the row of bonfires, and immediately called a stop when both sides of the fish turned a beautiful golden color.

Jinshan picked up the two fattest ones and gave them to Ruan Chuyin and the sect leader, then immediately turned around and started grabbing the remaining eight with his fellow disciples.

There were too many monks and too little porridge. To make it fair, we had to pull the fish off the pot, cut it into pieces, and piled them in the pot. We shared the food with our chopsticks.

The broth in the pot and the half-cooked braised venison were put aside and no one was interested in them.

A group of people, who were immersed in a lively atmosphere just now, are now silent and have their heads down.

Suddenly, Chi Youliang quickly stood up and rushed to the rice pot, scooped a large bowl of rice and brought it back. After taking two big mouthfuls, he turned to look at Ruan Chuyin and asked, "Miss Ruan, would you like some?"

Ruan Chuyin was about to answer when she saw a group of friends raise their heads and look at her in unison, causing her to quickly wave her hands and say, "No, no, this fish is enough for me."

"Oh." Chi Youliang moved his gaze slightly down an inch. He had only taken two bites of the fish that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. He stopped being polite and lowered his head to continue eating rice.

Jinshan and the others rushed to the rice pot one after another and scooped up some rice. Some of them had a conscience and left a bowl for the clan leader.

Yan Shanting looked at their useless appearances, and the pressure around him gradually dropped. But he soon regained his composure, because the delicacy in his hand was so delicious that he had no time to be distracted by anything else.

"Miss Ruan's cooking is excellent," he praised her for the first time after finishing the meal. His tone was a little stiff, making it difficult to tell whether he was being sincere.

Ruan Chuyin blinked twice, changed her words three times in her mind in just two breaths, and replied, "I'll open a restaurant in the future, and you won't have to pay for your visit."

This girl wants to open a restaurant?

Yan Shanting looked at him in surprise and couldn't help but give her a thumbs up in his heart.

"Where are you going to open it? What will it be called?" If you have the chance, you can go and show your support.

"I haven't thought about it specifically yet. I'll send you a letter after the business opens." Ruan Chuyin replied while thinking about this question.

Qin Guanzhi was in Liangcheng, Xiang Yunchi was in Licheng, where should it be built?

Yan Shanting looked at her speechlessly for three breaths, then turned his head away silently.

After the meal, the disciples of Xuantian Sect began to consider their route.

The only way back to Furong Town must pass through the route that Wei Jiusi and Ruan Chuyin took to escape.

But because of the Eight-Star Tiger, we had to readjust.

"Master, if we change our route, we can only continue south out of Shougou Mountain Range, along the north of Beiyue Country, through Nanxing Country, and then enter Dayong. We will definitely not be able to make it to the Ten Sects Summit Conference." Jinshan said, pointing to the route on the sheepskin map.

"How can that be! This is the Sect Master's first time attending the Ten Sects Conference. If he's absent, those old guys will think our Sect Master is afraid of them." Wu Fei was the first to disagree. The previous conference's main battle between the Sect Masters was fought by the old Sect Master. This was the new Sect Master's first battle since taking office. With Xuantian Sect's prestige at stake, the Sect Master couldn't afford to retreat.

"Awu, the Eight-Star Tiger! Do you want us to rush and feed it to them?" Chi Youliang gave Wu Fei a look that looked like a fool.

"You are useless. Are you scared of just a few eight-star tigers?" Wu Fei snorted coldly, raised his head high, and his eyes were full of disdain.

"Just a few eight-star tigers? Have you fucking forgotten what Miss Ruan said before? Three hundred!" Chi Youliang roared.

"At least." Ruan Chuyin added softly.

The atmosphere around gradually became solemn.

Everyone fell silent for a moment, and looked towards Yanshan Pavilion.

"Miss Ruan, how about I let Jinshan and the others take you back to Dayong from Beiyue?" He weighed the pros and cons for a moment and decided to cross the cliff.

These words made Ruan Chuyin feel conflicted.

If we go this way, how long will it take to reach Furong Town?

By then, Qin Guanzhi and Xiang Yunchi might not be there, and they must be very anxious.

But she didn't want to go back to that place that frightened her. Wei Jiusi had saved her life and his whereabouts were still unknown. What would she do if she ran into those Eight Star Tigers again?

"Jinshan, pick five people to safely escort Miss Ruan back to Furong Town." Yan Shanting had already made up his mind. His gaze was fixed firmly on the northern area, without a trace of fear in his eyes.

"Okay! Sect Master Yan, when you pass through Furong Town, could you please take a message to the restaurant for me?"

At this time, Ruan Chuyin also made a decision and went back along the safe route that Yan Shanting had suggested.

"Okay. Just tell me."

"Please help me inform Qin Guanzhi and Xiang Yunchi that I'm safe."

"Qin Guanzhi? Qin Guanzhi, disciple of the Drunken Sword God of the Wangxi Sect?" Yan Shanting looked at Ruan Chuyin in surprise. Qin Guanzhi, he must have been too familiar! He'd always run into him when he'd accompanied his master to the Wangxi Sect. He'd almost beaten Nanxing Kingdom's legitimate princess, Hao Rong, to death, and now he was on Nanxing Kingdom's blacklist, a death sentence.

At first, he had wondered, "Hao Rong is so beautiful and has such a high status, what's wrong with marrying her?" It turned out to be because of Ruan Chuyin. That was understandable.

"What is your relationship with Qin Guanzhi?" Yan Shanting asked knowingly, feeling a little depressed and a little irritated that he had never felt before.

Ruan Chuyin didn't know that he had imagined so much, so she said frankly: "He is my fiancé."

"click click"

Heartbreak echoed around them, the one from Yan Shanting's chest being particularly resounding.

"Then who is Xiang Yunchi to you?" He suddenly remembered the name again.

"He... is also my fiancé." Ruan Chuyin felt that this definition was absolutely correct. Both of these men were hers.

This time, there was no more heartbreaking sound in the air

Yan Shanting stared at her in disbelief for a long time and asked, "You have two fiancés. Does Qin Guanzhi have any objections?"

He didn't believe it! He knew Qin Guanzhi very well. He was definitely not the kind of man who would share a woman with others. Was this girl joking?

The disciples of Xuantian Sect were shaking with excitement.

They seemed to have heard some incredible news. They opened their eyes wide and pricked up their ears, not even having time to breathe.

Ruan Chuyin slowly nodded under Yan Shanting's questioning gaze.

There was a loud "bang" sound.

A disciple of Xuantian Sect couldn't contain his excitement and raised his hand to sweep away a bonfire.

But soon, two even more shocking loud noises rose in the air.

Two cloud-piercing arrows shot straight into the sky, heading towards the area opposite Meteor Cliff where the Eight-Star Tiger appeared.

Ruan Chuyin's heart skipped a beat, and a sense of foreboding arose.
