Chapter 6: Hero Saves Beauty

  Chapter 6: The Hero Saves the Beauty

  The one-week military training has passed quickly, and everyone has gained something from it. At least in terms of discipline, there has been some progress, which will still be useful for future studies. After the military training was over, we had a two-day rest on the weekend, and high school study life also got back on track.

  On a weekend evening, Wang Long finished dinner in the cafeteria and thought of taking a stroll around the campus. He walked to the southeast corner of the school, where there was a pond, a popular spot for couples to date, known as "Lover's Slope". A crescent moon hung high in the sky, casting a faint silver glow on the water's surface, adding to the coolness of the air. The teaching building across from him stood tall and quiet under the silver light, with a patch of white flowers in front of it. There were also artificial hills, stone walls, and willow trees around the pond, each with its own color and shape, seeming to hold secrets that couldn't be told under the silvery moonlight. A gentle breeze blew softly - it seemed to be just enough to cool down the small birds sleeping in their nests, and to help the beetles flying to a wedding party. The leaves on the trees swayed slightly, as if not blown by the wind, but caressed by the soft light passing over them. Wang Long felt especially good, with this cool feeling far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, making his heart feel very comfortable.

  "Help...!" Suddenly, Wang Long heard a faint cry for help from a girl. Normally, people might not have been able to hear it, but since Wang Long had practiced the "Five Elements Spiritual Cultivation Technique", his senses were more than a hundred times sharper than those of ordinary people. The voice seemed to be coming from outside the school wall, accompanied by intermittent tearing sounds. By this point, Wang Long already knew that someone was in danger not far away in the mountainous area outside the school wall. Wang Long had always been kind and gentle by nature, but he was fiercely opposed to dark forces. Looking around, there were no people nearby at this time, only a couple in the distance embracing each other with their backs to him. The air twisted for a moment, and Wang Long disappeared from his original spot, reappearing on the edge of the mountainous area outside the school campus the next instant.

  King Dragon's eyes turned red, yellow, blue, green, and purple as he activated his divine power. What happened in front of him made King Dragon deeply indignant: a girl with disheveled hair was being held in the arms of a young man, her chest clothes torn open, revealing a pink bra, and a strand of hair mixed with tears stuck to her face, making it impossible to see her face clearly. The man's hands were already grasping at the girl's chest, preparing to tear off her bra. The man's appearance was very clear, and it turned out to be Ouyang Li, whom King Dragon had met before. At this moment, Ouyang Li had a ferocious expression, with a lustful smile on his face as he prepared to tear off the girl's bra, while also violently groping her. Ouyang Li was smiling smugly, enjoying his beastly behavior, completely unaware that King Dragon was standing not far away from him. Suddenly, he found that the girl in his arms had disappeared, and he himself was struck by a great force, falling onto the slope behind him. Unfortunately, his head hit a protruding rock on the slope, and fresh red blood flowed down the slope like a burst dam. Ouyang Li finally opened his eyes to see King Dragon holding the girl, before losing consciousness.

  Suddenly, a black shadow flew out from the mountainside like a bird, charging towards Wang Long. The shadow's body seemed to be burning with wet wood, emitting thick black smoke. Wang Long calmly swung out an attack, and red, yellow, blue, green, and purple divine lights transformed into a five-colored divine dragon to confront the shadow. Unexpectedly, when the five-colored divine dragon encountered the black smoke, it slowly began to corrode, leaving no time to react. Fearing he would hurt the girl in his arms, Wang Long quickly circulated his energy throughout his body, turned around, and tightly hugged the girl, using his back to face the shadow. With a loud "boom", Wang Long was knocked out of several dozen feet away. A mouthful of fresh blood sprayed onto the ground, with some of it sticking to the girl's body. The black shadow behind him was also repelled by this blow, flying out of several dozen feet, spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood before instantly appearing in front of Ouyang Li, sweeping him up and disappearing into the night.

  Wang Long took a deep breath, lowered his head, and only then did he realize that the girl in his arms was staring at him. The hair stuck to her face had fallen to one side. After getting a clear look at the girl's face, Wang Long was startled - the girl in his arms was none other than Xiao He, the school beauty. Xiao He was looking at him with a worried expression, and upon seeing the blood on Wang Long's lips, she asked anxiously, "Are you okay?" Wang Long shook his head: "I'm fine, don't worry." Xiao He discovered that she was being tightly held in Wang Long's arms, and her face flushed with embarrassment as a beautiful red cloud rose to her cheeks. She struggled free, and Wang Long also realized that their current posture was somewhat ambiguous. He quickly released his hold on Xiao He, allowing her to stand steady on her own. Wang Long took off his jacket and draped it over Xiao He's shoulders. Xiao He whispered a "thank you". The two of them stood there in silence for a while, Xiao He still looking down with embarrassment, her expression unclear.

  "I don't know..." "I still..." The two people spoke at the same time, and Wang Long said with a hint of embarrassment: "You go first." Xiao He said: "I didn't even know your name, thank you so much for saving my life just now." Wang Long smiled and said: "My name is Wang Long, I'm in high school class 1(2), don't mention it, but I don't understand why Ouyang Li treated you like that?" Xiao He's face turned gloomy after hearing this, and she said softly: "I'm not very clear either, we used to be friends, he started pursuing me from the first year of high school, I thought everyone was still in high school, so I didn't agree to it, who knew he would do such a beastly thing today? If you hadn't appeared on time, Wang Long classmate, I think I would have been done for today." Wang Long also couldn't speak for a moment after hearing this. After a while, he said to Xiao He: "It's late, I'll send you back to school." Xiao He suddenly let out a cry of surprise: "You hurt Ouyang Li today, and you'll be in big trouble later! The Ouyang family is wealthy and powerful, they'll drag you down with them, I really don't know what to do!" Wang Long shook his head nonchalantly: "Don't worry about it, nothing will happen." Xiao He's eyes turned red with anxiety: "You don't understand, the Ouyang family is not ordinary, Ouyang Xiong, Li's father, is the richest man in HB province, their family controls the Top Sky Corporation, which is an international company on the surface but has a vast network of influence across the country, both above and below the law. And it's said that they have many masters as their family guards. The one you met today, wearing black clothes, is also a member of the Ouyang family guard. I'm really sorry, for saving me, you've gotten yourself into such big trouble." Wang Long still looked calm: "Really, don't worry about it, if they want to find trouble with me, I won't be afraid, just rest assured." Xiao He shook her head helplessly: "There's nothing we can do now that things have happened, we can only take it one step at a time. If anything happens later, you must tell me immediately!" After sending Xiao He back to her dormitory, Wang Long found a place outside the school and set up a defensive array, starting to meditate and heal his wounds. In his heart, he was also shocked - the black shadow's abilities were almost as strong as his own! If the Ouyang family had more masters like that, it would be really troublesome for him in the future! It seemed that his current abilities weren't enough; if the Ouyang family found him later, it wouldn't be easy to deal with. He decided to focus on practicing the "Five Elements Spirit Cultivation Technique", and if he could break through to the later stages, he would have a chance. Currently, his Golden Body was still in the middle stage, far from being invincible. With determination, Wang Long began to cultivate. At this time, only a few wisps of invisible five-colored light could be seen moving towards Wang Long's location, as if attracted by something. The so-called Five Elements referred to metal, wood, water, fire, and earth - wherever these elements existed, there was the heavenly Five Elements spiritual energy that Wang Long needed. However, in modern society, with the rapid development of technology and industrialization, much of nature had been destroyed, so compared to ancient times, the heavenly Five Elements spiritual energy was much scarcer.

  On the twentieth floor of a modern high-rise building, in a large office near the southeast corner, a man in his forties with a black suit and bloodstains on his mouth was speaking in hushed tones to Ouyang Xiong, the patriarch of the Ouyang family. Ouyang Xiong, also in his forties, had a high nose bridge, thick and long eyebrows under which shone a pair of eyes with an eerie glow, and a dense beard that gave him a heroic aura.

  The man in black said to Ouyang Xiong: "Brother Xiong, I'm really sorry. I didn't protect Young Master Ouyang well, and he got hurt so badly." Ouyang Xiong furrowed his thick eyebrows, thought for a moment, and asked: "Liu Hu Fa, you're one of the five top masters of our Ouyang family, and also Mo Wang's great disciple who received Mo Wang's true teachings. Who could have beaten you up? And it was just a teenager! Did you see his face clearly?"

  Liu Hu Fa replied respectfully: "I saw him clearly, but I don't recognize him. Young Master also saw him, let's wait for Young Master to wake up and see if he recognizes him. That kid is not simple; if I hadn't ambushed him, it's not certain that I would have been his match."

  Ouyang Xiong's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he waved his hand: "You go down and rest first, you're injured so badly. We'll talk again when you've recovered." Liu Hu Fa vanished instantly from the room.

  Ouyang Xiong's eyes radiated a terrifying red glow: "No matter who you are, since you hurt my child like this, I will definitely make you die a terrible death." He grabbed the phone on the desk and quickly dialed a number...

  Wang Long had been practicing the 36th week of his Taoist meditation, and when he opened his eyes, it was already deep into the night. The city near the school was densely packed with high-rise buildings, and the streets were filled with cars and people rushing to and fro. The crowds surged like a tide, the neon lights piercing the eyes, the streetlights flickering dazedly. It was both real and illusory. Inside and outside the bars, people were shouting and screaming, indulging in their desires, while the ancient streets flashed with advertisements for famous beers. Wang Long shook his head, took a deep breath of the fresh air around him, and thought to himself that it was still better here at school. The hill behind the school was the only place in this city that had not been polluted.
