"You can't," he ordered.

Log Lei was about to leave this place when she was stopped by his call and turned around to ask him why?

Why was he behaving like a stupid person again?

"What? You want something." She asked in return.

As far as she knew she had not revealed anything about her connection to her godfather so for this time she was safe. But why is this pedophile stopping her from going away?

Was he suspecting her all of a sudden?

If this was the truth she was screwed this time because the aftereffect of spirit water must have stopped by now. She didn't have anything to defend against him.

Oh god! Why do I always face something like this? I was just a simple city girl in my previous life, not some overpowered character who can deal with anything that comes in front of her.

If this man will attack her then she will not be able to protect herself. Her fighting experience in front of this expert was nothing. She was an ant in front of this huge tree.

"Apparently I do." Nangong Ah Jin confirmed her doubts.

Damn! There must be some problem with her acting.

Long Lei tried to act cool. She didn't want to show her weakness in front of him. "Did you forget that you were poisoned? Don't try to act smart with me. What do you want?"

Nangong Ah Jin was stunned at her vigilant attitude. He didn't know why she was behaving like this?

"It's nothing much. I want your help."

Long Lei laughed in relief. Oh! He wanted her help. He was not suspecting her.

Huf!

"Help, tell me how I can help?" she asked him with a sweet smile.

"You said you are from jianghu. So I want your help in searching that man." Nangong Ah Jin proposed. She told him that she lived in jianghu. This was a chance to infiltrate their main region and without creating any waves.

"Since I am not punishing you for taking that soul flute and letting you go like a magnanimous person you should repay your debt by introducing me inside the inner circle of jianghu." Nangong Ah Jin completed his words.

Long Lei was about to die because of heat stroke. This man was trouble! Big fat trouble! She was regretting her decision to not leave this damn place just after taking this soul flute.

Ah! Her greed will make her a dead man soon.

"No." Long Lei denied. "This is not possible. We have strict rules so you can't enter the inner circle."

"But you have taken the soul flute. How am I supposed to bring my uncle out of his lair little fox?" Nangong Ah Jin pointed out the problem.

"That's your problem molester. It's nothing to do with me. Find another scapegoat because I ain't interested."

Long Lei turned and started to leave. She didn't want to bring this trouble with her. After all, she lives with her godfather and she can definitely feel that Nangong Bai Yu and Bai Yu- the lord of the entire Jianghu were one and the same. This was too risky.

Nangong Ah Jin was speechless again. He was a dignified man when did he became a child – molester. This little girl was too brazen for him and a bit foolish. He was being good to her and all she did in return was spout some garbage at him.

This was his first time interacting with this kind of person.

"Not so fast, little fox." He instantly caught her by her waist.

"You! Leave me!"

"Nah! I think this position is quite good. I am a molester so I am allowed to behave like a ruffian.

Don't you agree with me, little fox?" Nangong Ah Jin smiled.

Long Lei really wanted to beat this man black and blue after his last statement. Who does he think he was? She had enough of him.

She needs to think something so that this leech would bug off her. Think Long Lei, think! You had read so many novels. Use your brain.

"I am asking again are you taking me with you."

Nangong Ah Jin caressed her hair from his other hand. Long Lei was busy thinking about her countermeasures against him. She didn't notice his touchy behavior.

"Lei'er, do you like me touching you?" He teased her when he didn't get any response from her.

"Hell! No, you scoundrel, leave me alone. I will never take you with me. Soul flute is mine now; use some other methods for searching your master."

"This is the easiest method Lei'er." He smiled.

"Don't tell me you are good for nothing. Aren't you an expert? Use your brain and skill to find him? Why bother me?" Long Lei instigated him.

"Why? little fox! Why are you avoiding my request? Are you hiding something from me?"

Nangong Ah Jin was now getting suspicious over her defensive attitude and the way she was hinting him to take another route to find his eccentric uncle. Perhaps, she knew about him too.

Long Lei froze in shock when Nangong Ah Jin asked her about these questions. Damn! She was screwed.

"What rubbish? Am I that kind of a person? I am just a good citizen of Jianghu so I can't betray my people just to help you." Long Lei tried using gibberish rules and regulations of Jianghu.

"You know, we have strict laws that don't allow us to bring outsiders in the inner region. This is strictly prohibited. I am sorry big brother." She pitifully explained her situation.

Although this was true for Long Lei this didn't matter in the least after all her godfather was behind her. No one was daring enough in jianghu to slight her then what about those rules?

Nangong Ah Jin was still suspicious but he didn't show this on his face.

"Tell me, why then, I will let you go if you tell me the way to enter the inner region of Jianghu." He chose the other way to get information out of her.

Long Lei gritted her teeth in anger. "I don't know. I will check the rulebook for you and then let you know."

She sarcastically replied.

Nangong Ah Jin saw right through her and was delighted that she was easily trapped in his words.

"Great! Let's form a contract.
