Chapter 340 Probing Encounters, Melee Among the Crowd

Xiaoman also pleaded with a pained expression: "Sister Daya, there are outsiders here, please give us some face... Ouch... It hurts!"

The two of them were being pulled by the ears, their bodies twisted to the side, their faces contorted in a comical way, which made Li Meng, who was standing behind them, burst out laughing.

Chen Junxuan couldn't help but turn his head away, his shoulders trembling slightly, his face turning red from holding back laughter, and tears were almost coming out.

Da Ya only remembered that there were outsiders when she heard the laughter.

She snorted and finally let go with a final tug.

Their ears were finally freed, but they were burning red, so they could only cover their ears and rub them.

Da Ya glared at them and ordered, "You two, stand still!"

Shizi and Xiaoman covered their ears, wincing in pain.

Seeing that their eldest sister was really angry, they couldn't help but shiver and obediently stood in a row, heads down, looking like two elementary school students who had done something wrong.

Daya said sternly, "You all stand here and reflect on your actions. Don't you dare move an inch without my permission, do you hear me!"

The two replied quietly, "Okay..."

"I can't hear you! Speak louder!" Daya raised her voice.

"Okay, Sister Daya!" the two shouted quickly, their voices tinged with grievance.

Da Ya then snorted coldly and ignored them.

Instead, he turned to look at Song Jiuxian, Chen Junxuan, and Li Meng standing opposite him.

His gaze finally settled on Li Meng, paused for a moment, then turned to Shanzi and asked, "Shanzi, who are these three...?"

Shanzi shook his head, indicating that he didn't know the reason either.

Song Jiuxian looked at Daya, a smile flashing in his eyes, and asked, "Little girl, are you the leader here?"

Da Ya didn't answer directly. Instead, she bowed to Song Jiuxian and asked in a graceful manner, "May I ask how you are addressed, sir? Are you one of the friends that Shizi and the others made on their trip?"

Shi Zi was about to introduce Li Meng when he was glared at by Da Ya and shouted, "You two, stand still! Who told you to speak!"

Shi Zi shrank back in fright, quickly shut his mouth, lowered his head again, and looked pitiful, like a little dog that had been soaked by the rain.

Shanzi pointed at Chen Junxuan and briefly recounted what he had just witnessed to Daya.

"Cheng Peng and I were resting at the restaurant when we suddenly heard the sounds of fighting, so we ran out to check it out."

Unexpectedly, Shi Zi was with this guy from Jiaotong University.

I was worried that if they made too much noise, they would be discovered by the Spirit King's people, so I brought them here first.

After Da Ya nodded, she turned her gaze to Song Jiuxian and his apprentice, but her expression became more serious.

"Old man, judging from your extraordinary demeanor, you must not be an ordinary passerby."

If my two younger brothers have in any way offended you three.

As their older sister, I apologize on their behalf.

Before Song Jiuxian could speak, Li Meng blurted out, "Miss, you're mistaken! I'm not with them!"

Da Ya looked at the adorable Li Meng, her eyes softening.

"May I ask how the young lady is addressed?"

Li Meng skipped and hopped over to Da Ya's side, looking up at her.

Da Ya was almost a head taller than her, so she had to look up.

"Big sister, you're so pretty! My name is Li Meng, and I'm the little brother's friend."

Da Ya couldn't pretend to be serious after being praised so directly, so she smiled and replied, "My little sister is also very cute."

Li Meng's eyes lit up, as if she had received a tremendous reward, and she asked, "Really? Big sister isn't lying to me, is she?"

"Of course it's true."

Daya raised her hand and gently touched her head.

"My little sister is so adorable, how could I possibly lie to you?"

Li Meng immediately beamed, leaned closer, and whispered, "Big sister is much better than little tongue!"

As he spoke, he affectionately hugged Daya's arm.

Seeing her so familiar and friendly manner, Da Ya was reminded of Yun Dan and felt a surge of affection for her.

She patted the back of her hand and asked, "Who is Little Tongue? How did he bully you?"

Li Meng immediately put on a pitiful look, pouting as she said, "The little tongue is Su Ziyu."

For the past month or so, he's been bullying me every single day. He's either laughing at me for not knowing how to ride a horse or he's always arguing with me..."

Daya paused for a moment upon hearing this, then asked again uncertainly, "Who did you say is 'Little Tongue'? Pebbles?"

Li Meng nodded repeatedly, then pointed at the pebble and said, "Yes, yes. That's him!"

Daya then looked at Shizi standing to the side, raised her eyebrows slightly, gave a heavy "humph," and said nothing more.

Then he turned back to continue comforting Li Meng.

"Don't cry, don't cry. If he bullies you again, just tell your sister and see how she punishes him."

Upon hearing Da Ya's words, Li Meng's face instantly transformed into one of triumph.

She clapped her hands and laughed happily, "Big sister, you're so kind!"

As she spoke, she leaned on Daya's arm, secretly turned her head, stuck out her tongue in the direction of the stones, and made a face.

Seeing her like this, Shi Zi was so angry that he almost ground his back teeth to powder.

However, he was ordered by Daya to stand and reflect on his actions, and dared not move.

I could only watch helplessly as she looked so smug, and I felt incredibly frustrated.

There's a real sense of helplessness, like crying out to heaven and earth but getting no response.

Da Ya patted Li Meng's back and said softly, "Alright, alright, little Li Meng, be good. I still have some things to take care of here. I'll talk to you after I'm done, okay?"

Li Meng nodded obediently, let go of her hand, and stepped aside, but her eyes were still shining as she looked at Daya.

Daya then turned back to Song Jiuxian and his apprentice, and asked again, "May I ask your esteemed name, sir?"

Song Jiuxian did not answer Da Ya, but suddenly moved and appeared in front of Da Ya in an instant, pushing out a palm horizontally.

The palm technique appears slow, yet it carries an aura that should not be underestimated.

Daya was startled by the sudden palm strike.

In the rush, without time to think, he quickly used the Linglong Fist Technique, crossing his palms to protect his front, and collided with Song Jiuxian's palm force.

With a soft "bang," Da Ya felt a surge of powerful internal energy, her arm went slightly numb, and she involuntarily took a few steps back.

Seeing this, Shanzi thought that Song Jiuxian was going to harm Daya, so he immediately used his internal strength to leap up and attack Song Jiuxian's side with both palms.

Seeing this, everyone in the courtyard also sprang into action.

Without saying a word, Da Tou stood in front of Da Ya; Xiao Man and Shi Zi, though ordered to reflect on their actions, didn't care about anything else and stepped forward together.

Cheng Peng was so anxious that he yelled and charged forward, waving his fists.

In the blink of an eye, the seven people in the courtyard were locked in a fierce battle.

Cheng Peng's martial arts skills are the weakest among these people.
