"What?"
Hearing Miao Shan's words, not only Qin Long and the forty special task force members were shocked, but even Shen Lang looked at Miao Shan in disbelief.
No one had expected Miao Shan to be so resolute, directly threatening everyone with herself.
For a moment, Qin Long and the forty special task force members were all in a dilemma.
Others might not know what Shanyuan Villa was or who Miao Shan was, but they were very clear.
Shanyuan Villa housed a master, and Miao Shan was that master's disciple.
And that master was a prominent figure in Nanling and even the entire Dragon Country. Offending her would be a very troublesome matter.
"Brother Qin, let me handle it."
At the critical moment, Shen Lang stepped forward, smiling at Qin Long and the others, "I am already very grateful that you accompanied me here. From now on, all matters will be left to me. You can leave first and avoid getting yourselves into trouble."
"Brother Shen, what do you mean by that? Are you looking down on me, Qin Long, or all of us?"
Hearing Shen Lang's words, Qin Long and the forty special task force members all showed displeasure, as if they had been insulted.
"Brother Qin Long, I didn't mean that. I just don't want you to get into trouble."
Shen Lang smiled at Qin Long and the others, "Shanyuan Villa doesn't seem simple. If you offend Shanyuan Villa, it will do you no good. But for me, it's different. I don't care if it's Shanyuan Villa or Evilmen Valley. As long as I confirm Yu Xiao and the others are inside, I will definitely go in."
Shen Lang said this, patted Qin Long on the shoulder, and smiled, "You stop here, and I will proceed. Let's go."
With that said, Shen Lang turned around and strode towards the gate of Shanyuan Villa.
"Kid, stop right there."
Miao Shan never expected that Qin Long and the others wouldn't listen to her, but would instead obey Shen Lang, an unknown kid.
However, seeing Shen Lang intent on forcing his way into Shanyuan Villa, Miao Shan immediately shouted and said, "In Nanling, or even in the entire Dragon Country, no one can force their way into Shanyuan Villa. Kid, do you know the price you will pay after stepping through this door?"
"No one can force their way in?"
Shen Lang looked at Miao Shan, his smile chilling and terrifying, "Since no one has ever forced their way in, then I will be the first."
"In short, I must enter Shanyuan Villa today. If you have the ability, stop me."
With that, Shen Lang strode forward.
"Kid, I gave you good advice, but you refuse to listen. Since that's the case, don't blame me for being impolite."
Seeing Shen Lang's utter arrogance and complete refusal to listen to her, Miao Shan was furious. Her eyes then turned cold, and she threw a punch directly at Shen Lang.
"How old are you, yet you've already reached the Profound Realm?"
As soon as Miao Shan made a move, Shen Lang immediately saw through her cultivation.
Miao Shan was only in her early twenties, but her martial arts cultivation had already broken through to the Profound Realm. It had to be said that she was indeed a genius, no wonder she was so defiant.
However, despite his shock, Shen Lang's reaction was not slow at all.
When Miao Shan's fist reached Shen Lang, Shen Lang raised his hand and punched back, colliding squarely with Miao Shan's fist.
Shen Lang used five parts of his strength for this punch, but it was still astonishingly powerful.
The next second, Shen Lang's fist met Miao Shan's, instantly repelling her seven or eight steps. She hit a stone pillar at the entrance heavily, and a trickle of bright red blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.
"How... how is this possible?"
Miao Shan could not have imagined that Shen Lang could defeat her with a casual punch, and she said it with disbelief.
No Huang Realm below thirty, no Xuan Realm below forty, no Di Realm below fifty, no Tian Realm below sixty.
This was the iron rule of martial arts in the Dragon Country for thousands of years, and no one had ever broken it.
Miao Shan, at twenty-two years old, had broken into the Profound Realm, successfully defying the iron rule that had stood unbroken for thousands of years. She was confident that among her peers in the younger generation, she was invincible.
But Miao Shan never expected that Shen Lang, only two or three years older than her, could defeat her effortlessly.
"Breaking through to the Profound Realm in your early twenties is already remarkable. However, there's a saying: there's always someone better, so sometimes you need to be more restrained."
Shen Lang glanced at Miao Shan and smiled, "As a person of faith, you should cultivate yourself. Being so impetuous, you'll become a hateful, dried-up nun when you get old."
"How dare you insult me?"
Hearing Shen Lang's words, Miao Shan was enraged, "Who do you think you are, lecturing me?"
"See? You don't seem like a monk cultivating yourself at all. You're clearly a capricious, wicked Taoist nun."
Shen Lang smiled at Miao Shan, "Monks should pay attention to their cultivation. Do you understand cultivation? All those scriptures, all those vegetarian meals, what's the point if you're an idiot?"
"Alright, do as you please, as long as you don't stop me from saving someone, okay?"
Shen Lang walked step by step towards Miao Shan and said, "The black BMW that kidnapped my girlfriend is in Shanyuan Villa. I must go in and take a look. If you stop me again, then I won't go in."
"You won't go in?"
Hearing Shen Lang's words, Miao Shan looked puzzled, "Why won't you go in if I stop you again?"
"The reason is simple: I'm going to take you home to be my wife."
Shen Lang carefully examined Miao Shan and said, "Although your beauty is a bit lacking compared to my girlfriend, you're passable. If I can't save my girlfriend, then I'll have to make you my wife."
"You..."
Hearing Shen Lang's words, Miao Shan was furious, "You scoundrel, how dare you blaspheme me?"
"Blaspheme? Don't put it so harshly, as if you're some kind of saintess."
Shen Lang smiled, "We're all mortals who eat grains. You can't just because you've had a few vegetarian meals and recited a few scriptures, think you've transcended and are superior to us commoners, right?"
"Anyway, I have only one thing to say: if you continue to stop me from entering, then I won't go in. However, I'll immediately take you back to be my wife."
Shen Lang spread his hands and said, "Think about it carefully. I'm not in a hurry. I'll give you enough time to consider."
"Oh, by the way, beautiful girl, my name is Shen Lang. Remember my name well, so you don't forget it when we register at the Civil Affairs Bureau."
"Oh, by the way, do you prefer boys or girls? If you like boys, we'll have a football team, and if you like girls, we'll have a dance team."
"Bastard—"
Hearing Shen Lang's words, Miao Shan's face turned green and white with anger, her chest heaving.
Miao Shan could not imagine that there could be such a shameless person in the world as Shen Lang. If she could defeat him, she would have killed him with her palm right now.
Finally, Miao Shan shouted angrily, "Get in."
