"There's another girl, far more captivating than this old man's daughter, truly a vision of beauty, an absolute beauty!"
"Oh? A beauty?"
The second-in-command and third-in-command licked their lips simultaneously:
"Didn't expect you, old fool, to be so lucky! Hiding a beauty in the golden house! Why not bring her out at once?"
Cen Zhen and Cen Changqing immediately began to explain in a panic:
"Great lords, what you don't know is that the person inside has no relation to this old man; she is an immortal from heaven, and you cannot afford to provoke her!"
"An immortal from heaven? That's utter bullshit!"
The second-in-command scolded, pushing Cen Zhen and Cen Changqing away, and, with the third-in-command, carrying axes, they headed toward the carriage.
"Ping'an's Disciple, come out and speak!"
Zixia gave a slight instruction and was the first to step out of the carriage, opening her eyes.
"Damn! Should I get off or not?"
Li Ping'an watched Zixia get off, feeling torn. The wanted posters posted by the official residence at the foot of the mountain were like fishbones in his throat, making it hard for him to decide what to do.
"Forget it, if it's fortune it's not disaster, and if it's disaster you can't hide; I don't believe the world holds such coincidences!"
Ultimately, Li Ping'an decided to get off the carriage and face everyone.
"A beauty? I say she's more like a frigid fairy!"
The moment Zixia got off the carriage, she captured the attention of everyone in the Axe Guild. Who would bother looking at Li Ping'an or Cen Zhen and Cen Changqing's wives and daughters then?
Compared to the women who were present before, Zixia, whether in terms of temperament or looks, was a difference between heaven and earth.
Li Ping'an quietly stood behind Zixia, bowing his head vigorously, not daring to speak. Fortunately, Zixia had drawn all the "fire" to herself; otherwise, his cover would have been blown the moment he emerged.
Seeing his biggest support appear, Cen Zhen and Cen Changqing immediately came forward and earnestly pleaded:
"Two immortals, these men insist on bullying my family. I beg the immortals to uphold justice for us!"
Zixia heard as if in a trance, completely ignoring Cen Zhen and Cen Changqing, and casually scanned the surroundings:
"This place is mired in corruption, and you all have hideous faces. It seems this is indeed the den of the Axe Guild."
The second-in-command, twirling his mustache, laughed lasciviously:
"Little lady, you knew yet you still came? It's probably too late for regrets now, hehehe."
"Heh, let's cut the nonsense!"
Zixia unwillingly averted her gaze from these vulgar men, not wanting to taint her eyes, and proudly said from an upright position:
"Listen well, let me and my disciple pass, and we won't interfere in each other's affairs but if not..."
The second-in-command immediately interrupted:
"If not, we'll gang rape you, give birth to a few little bandits, and once bored, sell you to a brothel, hahahaha!"
"Shameless!"
Zixia was about to strike when the usually silent third-in-command suddenly screamed:
"Gang Leader!"

"The Gang Leader? Where is the Gang Leader?"
The second-in-command and the rest of the members turned their heads left and right, searching, but they did not see the Head Chief, Supreme Treasure.
"Gang Leader, why are you here?"
The third-in-command immediately rushed to Li Ping'an, who had been keeping his head down, and started looking back and forth.
"What? He's the Gang Leader?"
The second-in-command also hurriedly ran to Li Ping'an and held his face, examining it closely:
"Gang Leader, it really is you!"
"The Gang Leader?"
Zixia and Cen Zhen and Cen Changqing were shocked as they looked toward Li Ping'an, disbelief written all over their faces.
"So you were in cahoots with them! And here I was, kindly giving you a lift!"
Cen Zhen and Cen Changqing furiously glared at the innocent Li Ping'an, trembling with anger, pounding their chests in regret.
"No, Old Master, things aren't what you think!"
The Second-in-command asked with concern:
"Head Chief, you came back so soon?"
"Head Chief? Hmph!"
Zixia snorted coldly. Although she wasn't angry, the sword box at her waist began to buzz loudly.
"Gang Leader, it must have been you who lured them up the mountain and then colluded with us from inside and out, right? No need to act anymore!"
The Second-in-command said.
"Damn it! I really don't know you guys!"
Li Ping'an cursed angrily.
"Gang Leader, you were hit by Kunlun Three Sages' Seven-Injury Fist ten days ago and then went down the mountain to heal. How come you came back so soon?"
The Third-in-command clung to Li Ping'an's arm, leaning on his shoulder and cooing:
"It looks like the Gang Leader's injuries are all healed. I've missed you so much these days."
"Fuck off!"
Li Ping'an pushed the Third-in-command away, spread out his hands, and explained helplessly to the expressionless Zixia and the angrily clenching Cen Zhen and Cen Changqing:
"Master, Old Master, I really don't know them!"
"We welcome the Gang Leader back to his place!"
Over forty underlings immediately knelt down to greet him, shouting in unison that echoed through the mountain stronghold.
"Damn it! Are you guys crazy? I'm really not your Gang Leader Supreme Treasure!"
Li Ping'an said pitifully looking at Zixia, knowing that there was no use talking to Zixia now, and also fully understanding at that moment that his identity in this world was indeed Supreme Treasure, the Gang Leader of the Wuxing Mountain Axe Gang!
"Why is the Gang Leader treating us like this? Talking nonsense?"
The Second-in-command turned and asked the Third-in-command.
"It must be because the Gang Leader was severely injured, and although the Seven-Injury Fist was healed on this trip down the mountain, it is estimated that it left sequelae, and the Gang Leader has lost his memory, forgetting all about us!"
The Third-in-command stared at the helpless Li Ping'an and analyzed seriously.
Zixia held her sword technique with both hands, staring hatefully at Li Ping'an and said coldly,
"Li Ping'an, no, I should now call you Supreme Treasure, is there anything else you want to say!"
"Master, if I say I don't know them, that I'm not the Axe Gang's Gang Leader Supreme Treasure, would you believe me?"
Li Ping'an helplessly spread out his hands in the end.
"I wondered why you agreed so readily to be my disciple, so eager to learn the Cultivation Methods. It turns out it was to heal your Seven-Injury Fist!"
Zixia glared fiercely, gritting her teeth:
"Supreme Treasure, you've hidden this deep! Even I was deceived by you. I trusted you so much, cared about you... Enough, speak your last words!"
With a whoosh, Zixia's fingers twitched slightly, and two swords from the Sword Set at her waist instantly unsheathed and flew towards Li Ping'an.
"Protect the Gang Leader!"
The Second-in-command and the Third-in-command cried out urgently, and a group of underlings immediately surrounded Li Ping'an, all holding axes and glaring fiercely at Zixia.
"Heh."
Li Ping'an gave up completely and was too lazy to explain anymore; in the current situation, even a hundred mouths wouldn't clear things up.
Zixia looked at these bandits in front of her as trivial as chickens and dogs, merely shrines for sale, and didn't take them seriously at all.
"Well then, I will liberate you all together!"
The Second-in-command asked perplexedly:
"You are such a strange woman, always wanting to fight and kill us at first sight? Yet we have not wronged you before!"
"Headed towards death, yet unaware. Well then, let me give you a clear understanding before you die!"
Zixia then recounted all the evildoings committed by the Wuxing Mountain Axe Gang that she had heard.
The Third-in-command said with a sneer:
"Really ridiculous, is this your first day on Wuxing Mountain? The evildoings you're talking about are not done by us!"
