Invincible Over the World

"That's right, it's just an excuse from the He Family. Even if we agree to their demands, they still won't let us go," another elder from the Tie Family Castle said worriedly.

Tie Qianyuan furrowed his brows and sighed, "Is it really the end for our Tie Family Castle? We've weathered storms for hundreds of years, and I didn't expect it to be ruined by my hands!"

"Where are Qian Chengdong and the other two right now? If they were here, the He Family might be more cautious," a Tie Family Castle elder said.

"Hmph, if the three of them were here, I'm afraid they would collude with the He Family and turn against us at the last moment—that would be even worse!" Tie Mu said.

After that, the great hall fell silent again.

Just then, a disciple of Tie Family Castle ran in and reported to Tie Qianyuan, "Fortress Lord, a young man with black hair has arrived outside. He says he knows the Young Master and the Young Lady and has come to visit."

"A young man with black hair?" Everyone looked at each other in confusion.

"Do you know his name?" Tie Qianyuan asked thoughtfully.

"He said his name is Huang Xiaolong," the Tie Family Castle disciple replied.

"Huang Xiaolong! It's Brother Huang, Brother Huang!" Upon hearing this, Tie Xinlan's pretty face lit up with joy, and she immediately ran out of the great hall, followed by Tie Mu, who also had a look of delight.

Tie Qianyuan shook his head with a wry smile at his daughter and son's elated expressions.

"Huang Xiaolong? After leaving our Tie Family Castle, did Huang Xiaolong go to register for the Barbarian God Sect's disciple examination? I wonder if he passed," an elder from the Tie Family Castle said casually.

"With Huang Xiaolong's talent, he should have passed," another elder mused. "If he's now an Outer Disciple of the Barbarian God Sect, it's unfortunate. If he were an Inner Sect Disciple, the He Family would have been apprehensive, but a mere Outer Disciple of the Barbarian God Sect, the He Family won't take seriously."

Tie Qianyuan and several elders from the Tie Family nodded in agreement.

At this moment, when Tie Xinlan reached the gate of the Tie Family Castle, she saw the familiar tall and upright figure standing outside. Her beautiful eyes shone, and she quickly walked forward, calling out to Huang Xiaolong, "Brother Huang!"

Seeing Tie Xinlan's beaming smile and Tie Mu rushing out from behind her, Huang Xiaolong couldn't help but smile.

Seeing them again, Huang Xiaolong felt a sense of closeness.

Tie Xinlan approached Huang Xiaolong, breathing slightly heavily, which caused her chest to rise and fall. Coupled with her cute, playful, yet beautiful face, it was quite enticing.

However, she suddenly noticed the Golden Horned Little Bull next to Huang Xiaolong, her mouth gaped in exaggerated surprise as she reached out to touch its back, saying sweetly, "It's so cute. Little Niuniu, what's your name?" Then she turned to ask Huang Xiaolong, "Brother Huang, is Little Niuniu your Mount Pet? So adorable."

Huang Xiaolong chuckled and said, "It's called Little Girl."

Huang Xiaolong found it strange that the Golden Horned Little Bull allowed Tie Xinlan to pet it. Previously, if anyone else got close, this little guy would give them a swift kick without any hesitation.

"Little Girl?" Tie Xinlan's eyes sparkled, and she smiled at the Golden Horned Little Bull, "What an interesting name. Little Girl, how are you? I'm Tie Xinlan. Shall we be friends?"

The Golden Horned Little Bull mooed affectionately and leaned against Tie Xinlan.

Tie Mu was stunned when he saw the Golden Horned Little Bull, but when he also tried to pet it like Tie Xinlan, the Golden Horned Little Bull lifted its leg and made a kicking gesture, scaring Tie Mu away.

Tie Xinlan laughed softly and said, "Little Girl is so well-behaved, a kiss for you." With that, she actually gave the Golden Horned Little Bull a peck on the cheek.

Huang Xiaolong shook his head.

At this time, Tie Qianyuan and the elders of Tie Family Castle came out to greet Huang Xiaolong. After some polite exchanges, they invited Huang Xiaolong into the Tie Family Castle.

Entering the great hall of the Tie Family Castle and sitting down, Huang Xiaolong noticed that Tie Qianyuan and the others occasionally showed signs of anxiety, which made him curious.

"Brother Huang, did you pass the Barbarian God Sect's Outer Disciple examination?" Tie Xinlan suddenly asked Huang Xiaolong.

Tie Qianyuan and the others looked at Huang Xiaolong.

Although Huang Xiaolong had already gained some fame, with major forces like the Primordial Image Sect, the Giant Whale Sect, and some big shots on Azure Cloud Island knowing about him, small forces like the Tie Family Castle were unaware of Huang Xiaolong's achievements.

Huang Xiaolong was taken aback but then nodded, "I passed." There was nothing to hide.

"I knew Brother Huang would definitely pass the Barbarian God Sect's examination!" Tie Xinlan said, her charming face full of excitement.

Tie Mu also smiled and said, "I like it that Brother Huang has become an Outer Disciple of the Barbarian God Sect."

Tie Qianyuan and the elders of Tie Family Castle also congratulated Huang Xiaolong.

"Young Hero Huang has become a Barbarian God Sect Outer Disciple. We should hold a banquet to celebrate his achievement, but..." Tie Qianyuan sighed, "We're facing trouble at Tie Family Castle, so..." He stopped mid-sentence.

Huang Xiaolong felt more curious and asked Tie Mu what was going on.

"A few days ago, my brother and I went to Qingyang City to buy some things. Unexpectedly, we encountered disciples from the He Family. One of the He Family disciples made lewd comments about me. Later, I got angry and taught him a lesson. After returning, we found out he was a He Family disciple. The day before yesterday, the He Family Master sent someone with a letter saying that the He Family disciple liked me and wanted to marry me as a concubine. If I don't agree, the He Family will destroy our Tie Family Castle. Today is the deadline." Tie Xinlan couldn't help but say.

The He Family?

There should only be one He Family in Qingyang City.

So that's what it is.

Huang Xiaolong asked, "What's the name of that He Family disciple?"

Tie Mu replied, "He's called He Cheng. That guy may look decent, but he's lecherous and vile. Just thinking of him makes me want to spit on him!" He said with a look of hatred.

He Cheng? Huang Xiaolong's expression turned odd, unexpectedly it was this guy again.

Previously, Huang Xiaolong had He Hanyu lead the powerful figures from the Four Great Families to leave without punishing He Cheng and other He Family disciples. He didn't expect that after his secluded cultivation for over five months, this guy would be up to his tricks again.

Tie Qianyuan said, "It's a pity that Young Hero Huang is not an Inner Sect Disciple of the Barbarian God Sect. Otherwise, if Young Hero Huang spoke up, the He Family might not dare to trouble the Tie Family Castle because of Young Hero Huang's influence. But now..."

The elders of Tie Family Castle also wore worried expressions.

"Fortress Lord, it's bad, the people from the He Family have arrived and are right outside!" A Tie Family Castle disciple suddenly ran in frantically.

Tie Qianyuan, Tie Mu, and Tie Xinlan's expressions changed.

"I'll go out with you to take a look," Huang Xiaolong said.

Tie Qianyuan nodded, stood up, and composed himself. Then, along with the people of Tie Family Castle, he walked out of the great hall, with Huang Xiaolong following behind.

Before they reached the gate of Tie Family Castle, they heard an arrogant voice, "Why don't you tell your Fortress Lord to come out and roll over here? It's his luck that his daughter caught my fancy!"

Tie Qianyuan's face turned blue with anger, and the people of Tie Family Castle looked upset. (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for it. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users, please read on m.qidian.com.)
