I'm only one year old, what the heck is a Overturning System?!-Chapter 176 - 117 The Sassy Miss is Hard to Handle (Please Subscribe)_3

I don’t know when, but the tavern had become quiet, with only the sound from the table of the Chu Family Disciples remaining.

Chu Ming’s middle-aged guard finally noticed something unusual about the atmosphere in the tavern and started observing the surroundings.

After a short observation, the middle-aged guard’s lips moved slightly.

"What’s wrong?" Chu Ming’s ears twitched, and he turned to look at him.

The middle-aged guard shook his head and continued to transmit a message to him: "Young Master Ming, there may be danger here. Should we continue on our journey?"

Chu Ming glanced around, greeted the others with a nod, stood up and smiled, "Let’s not worry about it now, we’ll see on the road."

"Second Brother," Chu Chen looked at him puzzledly, "It’s raining heavily, isn’t the road difficult to navigate?"

"I want to try traveling on a rainy night; it might have a different flavor."

Saying this, he exchanged a glance with the young girl named Wan Er and took the lead to walk outside.

As the four Chu Family Disciples prepared to leave, Chen Yi thought to himself that the moment had come.

Just then,

the tightly closed door of the tavern was pushed open from outside, and a tall, robust figure clad in a raincoat walked in stooping.

Straightening up, the visitor’s hat almost touched the ceiling beams, and his broad body blocked the Chu family members’ way out.

Raindrops fell from his figure, making a loud ’drip-drop’ sound that seemed particularly grating in the suddenly silent tavern.

Before Chu Ming could frown and speak, the visitor lifted his hat slightly to reveal a rough face and smiled:

"Young Master Chu Ming, I apologize for my late arrival."

As he spoke, crossed scars on his nose unfolded in an ’X’ pattern on his face, looking fearsomely hideous.

"No good, Young Master, retreat quickly!"

Without hesitating, Chu Ming pulled Chu Chen and the others to retreat.

The Chu Family guards looked at the visitor vigilantly, protecting Chu Ming and the others as they slowly moved backward.

The leading middle-aged guard looked serious, his simple knife held in front of him, recognizing the identity of the visitor:

"’Heart-devouring Demon’ Zhu Shan, let us leave, and the Chu Family will surely reward you handsomely."

The burly man named Zhu Shan grinned, revealing two rows of steel teeth gleaming with a metallic luster.

"Tying you up will get me even more!"

"Don’t you think so?"

As his words ended, the old man holding a young girl at the other two tables lifted his head, no longer appearing timid.

"The Third Master is right; the Chu Family is wealthy and will definitely offer a decent price."

The girl in his arms giggled, her childish voice echoing throughout the tavern.

"Can dead people fetch money?"

"Dead men are worthless; the money is ninety-nine percent less." The four people at the adjacent table shook their heads in disagreement.

"Hehe, at least leaving a whole body allows them to return to the Chu family ancestral tombs."

"That’s also ninety percent less!"

Hearing the voices behind him, the middle-aged guard’s face turned pale, his heart sinking, and he quickly transmitted a message to Chu Ming to warn him:

"Young Master, these people are likely the ’Twelve Droplets’ bandits from Xijiang Prefecture, all desperate criminals."

"In a moment, I’ll hold them off; you take Young Master Chen and the others to the side of those four Sect Disciples, and wait for a chance to break through."

At the critical moment, the middle-aged guard didn’t forget the four people including Chen Yi in the tavern.

Although he was unsure of their strength, from previous observations, it was evident they were Sect Disciples.

"Alright, be careful!"

Chu Ming knew the situation was urgent, and he pulled Chu Chen and the other two young women to retreat towards where Chen Yi and the others were.

In fact, without the middle-aged guard’s reminder, he had already planned to do so.

The tavern was not large, and with bandits on one side, only Chen Yi’s side seemed relatively safe.

If they were also from the "Twelve Droplets," Chu Ming would just have to resign himself to bad luck and make a forceful breakthrough.

Chen Yi looked at the people in the tavern, his expression still calm.

Even as he watched the Chu family’s four disciples retreat, he remained indifferent.

Next to him, Xie Changle remained calm, his own strength may be low, but he was accompanied by three formidable fellow disciples.

At this moment, he looked at the "Heart-devouring Demon" Zhu Shan at the entrance with great interest and whispered with a smile, "I wonder what relation this person has with ’Evil Bone’ Zhu Gang?"

"If they are brothers, that would be interesting."

Hearing this, Xiao Xuanzhen looked around the tavern, especially at the "Heart-devouring Demon" Zhu Shan at the entrance, disapprovingly said:

"Ugly."

With that, she glanced over at the other side where some old men were and added, "Both ugly and weak."

Xie Changle: "..."

Oh, grand aunty, please hold your tongue.

The Chu Family Disciples were stunned too, almost losing the will to flee, thinking who is this with such audacity?

Though thinking that, the crowd, especially Chu Ming, grew more resolved to retreat toward Chen Yi and others.

The enemy of an enemy is a friend, especially at such a critical juncture.

Chen Yi paused, wanting to say something but considering Xiao Xuanzhen’s temperament, he decided not to open his mouth.

Suddenly, his interest in watching the drama completely disappeared.

No choice.

The team’s tank has pulled the aggro so stable, he found it hard not to fight.

The vicious-looking bandits glared at Xiao Xuanzhen. Zhu Shan at the entrance, with a broad grin, sneered:

"You’ve got guts, little lady. Later, I will definitely take good care of you!"

"Indeed gutsy, I can’t help wanting to get close to her now." From the next table, a brooding Swordsman said without turning his head.

At this moment, the old man holding a girl shook his head and said:

"Let’s get started then, to avoid delaying the time and getting the boss angry."

Simultaneously, the middle-aged Chu Family guard shouted:

"Please assist us, young heroes! Jizhou Prefecture Chu Family will surely repay you generously!"

Regardless of Chen Yi and others’ strengths, at least such a bold statement gave him a glimpse of hope.

Before his voice fell, the middle-aged guard was the first to slash at "Heart-devouring Demon" Zhu Shan.

"Bold move!"

Zhu Shan sneered, clutching his fists, not dodging or avoiding, he smashed down towards the Sword Energy.

In an instant, the Sword Energy burst forth and the whole tavern violently exploded.

Amidst the drawn swords and arrows, only the table and chairs under Chen Yi and the three others remained intact, sitting upright at the table.

Besides Zhu Shan and the middle-aged guard clashing, the rest of the evil demons had surrounded Chen Yi and the party from Chu Family, laughing viciously.

Xiao Xuanzhen, observing the sudden chaos, turned to Hua Xianzi and asked:

"Sister, were they cursing at me just now?"

Hua Xianzi hesitated and nodded, accurately speaking, what these bandits said was indeed insulting.

However, she did not say it out loud, knowing that Senior Sister Xiao’s temper was not very good.

Even so, anger surged in Xiao Xuanzhen, and stepping forward, she shouted:

"Looking for a beating!"

As her voice fell, she had already activated her Shock Thunder Skill, with Spiritual Acupoints emerging on her body.

"Be careful, she is a Fourth Grade Realm Martial Artist!"

The old man nearby hastily warned, but it was already too late.

In a flash of lightning, Xiao Xuanzhen appeared in front of the Swordsman who insulted her and struck down with a palm.

Grand Void Eight Techniques Gentle Palm of Earth!

The Swordsman had no time to react, as his vision blurred upon seeing the veiled face, he only felt pain in his chest and flew backward.

A mouthful of fresh blood sprayed out immediately.

"This lady is too sharp, shoulder up!"
