Master of Night Fortress

I turned my head to the side, shot Meng Jiangnan a look of askance, laughed and said: "Boss Meng, I'm a scaredy-cat, please don't scare me." Meng Jiangnan's men surrounded me in an instant. The area up here in the roof wasn't large. I have to give it to him for being able to hide so many people up here.

Meng Jiangnan suddenly quickly extended his arm to stop his men from continuing forwards. He looked like he was thinking about something when he said: "Ming Feizhen, do you think that I don't dare to kill you?"

"It's just murder, of course you dare to. I just don't believe that you'd kill somebody from Liu Shan Men so easily." I looked at his fat-as-a-pig physique jolt lightly. It looks like I was right. I then continued, "Especially somebody from Liu Shan Men who knows the passcodes of your world. Isn't that not so good?"

"Who exactly are you? How do you know our passcode?"

"I really am from Night Fortress. I'm just being tied down by business I have at Liu Shan Men at the moment."

Retirement is a job, so I wasn't really lying.

"Do you have proof?"

"It is what I say it is. You want proof from someone from Night Fortress? Have you lost your mind?"

Night Fortress has always been considered heretics by the martial world, primarily because of their free-going nature. Therefore, my response to Meng Jiangnan raised further suspicion. Meng Jiangnan couldn't quite grasp what I meant. He looked around with his eyes. He then suddenly smiled, revealing his teeth. He pushed the girls around him away with one hand and stood up,"Since you claim to be from Night Fortress, you don't mind proving it I presume."

"How do you want me to prove it?"

"As people in the pugilistic world, that would be via martial arts of course."

"About that……" I was hesitant. I wanted to decline him.

Meng Jiangnan suddenly shouted: "Cai Die, test his martial arts skills."

A servant girl from Jiang Mengnan's suddenly side glided over to my side like a butterfly. She took her silver hairpin off her hair that was as magnificent as clouds, pointed the sharp tip towards me and stabbed it down towards my cervical spine. Her sequence of movements was smooth as the flow of water which my eyes couldn't help but adore. The speed at which she removed her hairpin with her hands with was incredibly quick. When she stabbed it downwards, her hair had yet to lose its original shape.

The girl wasn't old, but she was a trusted bodyguard so she was not to be underestimated.

I couldn't help but fight back. I reached out with two fingers, grabbed her hairpin between them, and then gently shifted my hand upwards, taking it out of her small hand. I then used my thumb to gently push her right hand aside. The young girl spun around where she stood. I followed her spin, and returned her hairpin to where it originally was. It all happened so quickly her hair didn't change shape, like nothing had ever happened.

The young girl lost all her strength due to the spin. Her body turned weak and she fell towards the ground afterwards. I caught her in my arms just in time. She curled up in my embrace, and couldn't help but raise her head to look, which was when our eyes met.

The girl was only thirteen. She looked like a cute, jade beauty. I pinched her chin and teased her: "You look so cute, and yet you're so vicious. Careful, you might not be able to find somebody willing to marry you in the future."

The young girl went completely red in the face, but didn't know what to do since she was in my arms. She used her sleeve to cover her face and didn't dare to look at me.
