"Not good," Yin Yin said, noticing an unpleasant smell of sweat as he approached.

Seeing that the burly man's companions were all standing in the same spot, showing no intention of stopping him, she knew that these people were all planning to have the burly man take the lead so that they could openly rob the house.

Yinyin's face, hidden behind the curtain, remained expressionless: "Let me give you a piece of advice: pick up your knife and stay away from me."

“Oh,” the burly man laughed exaggeratedly, “this little brat has quite the nerve.”

Looking at the frail Yin Yin in front of him, the burly man felt no threat whatsoever, and even began to have some other thoughts.

He suddenly reached out to try and uncover Yin Yin's secrets: "When you're out and about, you can't just hide your face like that."

Behind Yin Yin, Hong Yao had actually wanted to make a move for a long time, but seeing that Yin Yin was handling it well, she held back.

Outside the door, Xuan Nu and the others also heard the commotion inside, but she didn't call anyone in. She even stopped Lin Jingjing, who wanted to rush in.

Yinyin leaned back slightly to avoid the burly man's hand, and then kicked upwards with her right foot, hitting the man's wrist squarely.

With a "click," the burly man cried out, clutching his hand.

Before Yinyin could fully retract her right foot, she leaped up with her left foot, first kicking the burly man in the chest, then striking his face.

Even as the burly man reacted and retreated, Yin Yin had already stomped on his face several times, paying particular attention to his mouth.

With her final kick, she stepped directly on the burly man's forehead and pushed him backward.

With a thud, the burly man fell to the ground, while Yinyin floated down to the ground, without the curtain being lifted at all.

"Alright!" There were quite a few martial arts enthusiasts in the inn who loved to watch the excitement and started discussing it in front of the group, betting on Yin Yin's master's lineage.

The burly man's companion quickly stepped forward to help him up, took his knife, and retreated.

"It was just a few words, how could you start a fight and even hit someone!"

Yinyin rolled her eyes: "What, are you saying that others are allowed to stand there and wait to be bullied? I've never heard of such a rule in the martial arts world."

Yinyin glanced at the knife mark on the counter: "Stop! Pay up first. If you don't, none of you are leaving here today."

"Pay up?" The group of people were stunned for a moment. "You kicked my second senior brother's wrist out of place and turned his face into a pig's head. You still want us to pay you up!"

"He asked for it, why blame me? I haven't even used any weapons yet," Yinyin said impatiently, tapping the counter. "He broke someone else's things, shouldn't you pay for it?"

The group was dumbfounded. In the world of martial arts, there had never been a case where someone had to pay compensation for simply denting someone's cabinet.

A laugh came from the lobby: "What the heroine says is true. If you break someone else's things, you should compensate them."

Yinyin glanced to the side and saw a boy about her age. Just as she was about to look away, she felt that this person seemed... no, it was the guard behind him who looked more familiar.

Yinyin thought for a moment, "Isn't this the person who followed that Third Young Master a few years ago?"

She shifted her gaze back to the young man who had spoken, and working backward from the answer, she indeed found many similarities.

The burly men, already aware that Yin Yin was too skilled to defeat, naturally turned their anger towards the Third Young Master who spoke next.

"You little brat, do you even have the right to speak?!"

The third young master's face was full of disdain: "I already told you, what are you going to do about it?"

Seeing his behavior, the others didn't dare to do anything.

Having just suffered a loss at Yin Yin's hands, how could he dare to bully a child who seemed so confident?

The group looked at each other, then rushed out in a swarm.

Yinyin knew that Xuan Nu and the others were outside, so she didn't stop them. However, the Third Young Master frowned and told the guards around him to help.

Before the guards could even make a move, the men were all kicked back.

“You’re trying to run away before you’ve even paid compensation? That won’t do,” Lin Jingjing glanced at them. “Besides, you haven’t apologized yet.”

She was wearing similar clothes to Yin Yin, and the veils on her head had been removed, so her beautiful face was openly displayed to everyone.

The group of burly men groaned and cried out, but the onlookers recognized Lin Jingjing first.

"It's the celestial fairy Lin Jingjing!"

In the years that Lin Jingjing has been away, many people have described her as a fairy descended to earth because she was born in Yaochi Palace and is beautiful enough.

But as she took on more and more missions, her excellent skills and ruthless nature in dealing with villains gradually became known to the public.

Over time, she became known in the martial arts world as the "Celestial Fairy".

One interpretation is that she is as beautiful as a fairy, while another is that her beauty is tainted with poison, and she can only be admired from afar.

Seeing that Lin Jingjing did not deny it, the inn became even more lively.

After all, it is truly rare to be able to see this number one beauty.

Someone in the know reminded the group who were still lying on the ground, "I advise you to go back and apologize. This fairy is the eldest disciple of the Jade Pool Palace's Mysterious Lady."

"The little girl over there, dressed in the same style of clothing as her, is most likely also from Yaochi Palace!"

Upon hearing the name Yaochi Palace, the burly men immediately shut up, quickly got up, ran to Yinyin to apologize, left some copper coins as compensation for the shopkeeper, and then ran away as fast as they could.

When they ran out, they saw many other women dressed in the same clothes still standing outside. They didn't know whether to run or not, so they could only carefully minimize their presence and slowly move away along the wall.

The people in the inn were very lively when they saw Lin Jingjing without her veil, and some couldn't resist going up to show off.

However, Lin Jingjing ignored them and simply stood to the side.

The Mystic Maiden led the people in from outside.

"Master."

Lin Jingjing and Yinyin, who had walked closer, shouted together.

Suddenly, the noisy atmosphere in the inn seemed to freeze, and no one dared to utter a sound.

Yinyin showed the wooden house plaque in her hand to Xuan Nu: "Master, these rooms are reserved for us."

Xuan Nu nodded, said nothing, and walked inside.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper quickly came over to personally lead the way.

Once the group from Yaochi Palace had completely disappeared down the stairs, the people in the hall began to discuss the matter again.

For some reason, they all spoke much softer, as if afraid of startling someone.

If Yinyin were here, she would definitely comment that it felt very stolen.

However, Yin Yin was focused on following Xuan Nu to her residence and did not notice.

Lin Jingjing did notice some of it, but her mind wasn't on these people.

After everyone from Yaochi Palace entered, a familiar face was missing at the very end of the line.

Seeing that she kept looking back, Qiu Shui could only ask knowingly, "Jingjing, why are you always looking back? Who are you looking for?"

"Oh, no one," Lin Jingjing said shyly.

She may not say it, but Qiu Shui could easily guess what she meant.

"Alright, stop looking. They own property in this town, and they've moved over there now!"
