The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

Chapter 1183: Chapter 1183: Impervious to Swords and Spears (8)

Yang Ruxin discovered that although the person was shrouded in darkness, at this moment, beneath that disheveled hair, two eyes were surprisingly bright.

Locking eyes with him fearlessly, Yang Ruxin suddenly perceived a mix of questioning, discontent, and hope in his gaze.

Could it be that he was pleading for them to rescue him?

Despite being unsure of the man’s identity, the eye contact confirmed that he was indeed a man.

After they had stared at each other for a while, Yang Ruxin stood up straight from Gu Qingheng’s embrace and slowly walked over.

Gu Qingheng hurriedly followed, assuming an attacking stance.

”Senior,” Yang Ruxin would not take risks and thus stood at a spot the person could not reach even if he stretched out his hand from behind the iron bars, ”May I ask who you are? How did you end up here?”

The man shrouded in darkness did not speak, just looked at her.

Yang Ruxin slightly furrowed her brow but did not back down, continuing to meet his gaze directly.

Gu Qingheng wanted to say something, but ultimately held back.

After a long time, the man shrouded in darkness suddenly cracked a smile, revealing a row of yellow, terrifying teeth, and then laughed: ”Haha, you’re actually not afraid?” His voice was exceedingly horrific, as if... it had been shredded by something.

”Why should we be afraid?” Yang Ruxin slightly arched her eyebrow, ”Are you an herbalist created by them?”

”Herbalist?” The man shrouded in darkness chuckled, ”What medicine could possibly refine me? I, Tang Wanqian, am immune to all poisons...”

”Then...”

”Tang Wanqian?” Gu Qingheng suddenly exclaimed, ”The former Sect Leader of the Tang Sect from the Shu Region, Senior Tang Wanqian?”

Yang Ruxin frowned, the Tang Sect? Wasn’t that a Jianghu Sect mentioned in the martial arts stories and games she used to read or play? Does it actually exist here too? Could all this be the affairs of Jianghu people, like what was earlier mentioned about the Xie Family Manor?

”Young man, you actually recognize me?” A sharp glint once again flashed in the elder’s eyes.

”Junior Gu Qingheng pays respects to the elder Tang.” Gu Qingheng bowed with a clasped fist, ”My master is Changyangzi. This is my fiancée Yang Ruxin, the last disciple of Dao Xuzi from Yunmen Mountain...”

Tang Wanqian was momentarily stunned, then took a look at Yang Ruxin and suddenly laughed: ”Hahaha, no wonder you were able to make it here, fate really has not abandoned me...” But while laughing, he suddenly began to choke up.

”Senior, how did you end up here? What happened back then?”

”It’s a long story,” Tang Wanqian sighed, then suddenly asked, ”What era is it now?”

”It is currently the twenty-fifth year of Xuanhe, January...”

”Hehe... ten years, it has been a full ten years...” Tears started to fill Tang Wanqian’s sunken eyes.

Yang Ruxin knitted her brows, ten years? That would mean this old man has been trapped here for ten years? My God, the fact that he was still alive was incredible.

”Senior, let’s rescue you first, this is not the place to talk...” While speaking, she drew her treasure sword and cut off the lock on the iron door in one swift motion.

However, Tang Wanqian shook his head: ”It’s useless.”

Yang Ruxin was somewhat unclear as to why he said it was useless, until Gu Qingheng’s treasure sword struck the chains. Only a ding sound echoed, leaving behind a white mark but failing to break the chain. It was then she realized why a celebrated Jianghu master had been trapped in such a place for so long – the chains were impervious to weapons.
