The Village Beauty 070, 070, not brothers but better than brothers, 070, not brothers but better than brothers. Zhou Quan's voice was naturally loud, and now he poured all his strength into it—its power rivaled even Master Xie Xun's Lion Roar. The two combatants, Iron-Heart Lan and Ahui, who were engaged in battle, instantly paused, turning their attention to Zhou Quan. This content comprises the textual material of Chapter 070 of The Village Beauty. Before even uttering the cry, Zhou Quan had already taken in the entire scene inside the room. What astonished him most was that, in his mind, the warrior-hero Huige—whose prowess he held in such high regard—had clearly been gaining the upper hand in his fight against Iron-Heart Lan, suffering significant setbacks. His sleeveless short tunic was torn and disheveled, blood seeping from his bronze-toned chest and abdomen, and his fists were streaked with blood. In contrast, Iron-Heart Lan, though breathing somewhat rapidly, showed not a single wound. "Zhou Quan," she said, "what are you doing here? Go out now!"
"Fei Xinlan spoke with stern intensity, yet she was genuinely worried that Zhou Quan's sudden arrival might bring him unforeseen harm. Zhou Quan said, 'Teacher Fei, please don't fight any longer—these two I know well.'
'You know them?' Fei Xinlan was startled, expressing her surprise.
Zhou Quan nodded, then walked over to Li Huashan, who had been quietly observing the scene, and pleaded, 'Uncle, please don't move her—she's my history teacher. Whenever I've caused trouble at school, she's always stepped in to help me. This time, let's just let it go.' As he spoke, he turned to the breathless Ah Hui and said, 'Hui, come over here—yours and her can't keep fighting like this.'
Hui glanced at Li Huashan, seeing no sign of resistance, and said to Fei Xinlan, 'Thank you for your mercy—I admit I'm not up to your level, and I'm willing to accept defeat. I'll be happy to learn from you again in the future.'
Hui's words carried a strong sense of the martial spirit, clearly reflecting his bold, sincere,
A Hu's face subtly flushed with embarrassment. He hadn't expected, after enduring so many storms and upheavals, to be defeated by a woman today. With a barely perceptible sigh, he returned to Li Huashan and said, "Brother Huashan, I've let you down. This content is the text from Chapter 070 of 'Rural Beauty in Her Prime.'"
Tie-xin Lan was startled, never expecting the young man radiating an icy chill to have discerned the origin of her martial arts style. She spoke with solemnity, "My body and skin are gifts from my parents; I have no right to take away a person's right to live, even if that person is a worthless nuisance. I will not kill them unless absolutely necessary. Let's get down to business—either fight or leave immediately."
Li Huashan's lips curled into a cold arc, and he said, "You are Xiao Quan's teacher and have always shown him care and attention. I won't fight you today. I apologize for the inconvenience caused." He then glanced around at the mess in the room and instructed Ahui, "Ahui, go fetch twenty thousand yuan from the car as compensation for today's disruption."
Ahui was momentarily taken aback, but knowing Li Huashan's careful nature, he trusted that there was a sound reason behind the request. Without hesitation, he strode out of the canteen. When he returned, he was holding two stacks of one-hundred-yuan bills: "Bro Li, the money is here."
Lu Yun watched in wide-eyed astonishment. Two thousand! Two thousand RMB—enough to cover the entire village of Cheng Taijian's annual pure income! Li Huashan had stepped forward with such a generous sum, truly rich beyond measure. Li Huashan took the money, gently stroked the bills with his fingers, and handed them to Fei Xinlan, saying, "These funds are for Zhang Yi's medical expenses. Please accept them on behalf of the elder." Fei Xinlan glanced neither at the bills nor at Li Huashan, and with a cold laugh replied, "I never touch money that's not clean and pure." Li Huashan chuckled warmly, then turned to Lu Yun, placing the money into his hands and saying, "You and Xiao Quan are close friends. I'll entrust these funds to you—please pass them on to Zhang Yi for me." Two thousand RMB—such a sum for a child raised in the countryside—was nothing short of astronomical. Holding the bills tightly, Lu Yun swallowed hard, his voice trembling as he said, "Brother Huashan, please rest assured—I will deliver the full amount to Zhang Yi without fail."
Li Huashan nodded and waved, saying, "Ahui, let's go. Let's take Xiao Quan with us."
"Uncle, why do you need to take me along? I'm really happy here. I don't want to go back yet. After all, this is the very content of Chapter 070 of the rural beauty series." Upon hearing that Li Huashan intended to take him along, Xiao Quan immediately grew anxious, pulling at Li Huashan's arm and shaking him vigorously. "I won't go back. Besides, my father hasn't given the word. If I go back without permission, what good will it do? He'll surely have something serious in store for me. You go ahead—don't make me go back and get beaten up by my father."
"Stop being so stubborn. I'll take care of my uncle. You needn't worry."
"Exactly, Young Quan. Just listen to Brother Huashan and come with us. This place is so dull—besides the women being pretty, what else is there to keep you here?" Ahui added his support.
"I said I'm not going! If you have any business, go ahead. I'm
Li Huashan coldly glanced at him and said, "Ahui, take Xiao Quan to the car. We're leaving right away."
Ahui called out, "Full-Young, I'm sorry!" then immediately extended his arms, cradling Zhou Quan like a chicken in his armpits, and followed Li Huashan toward the cafeteria exit.
Zhou Quan struggled desperately, but how could he possibly break free from Ahui's hold? In desperation, he shouted, "Ahui, you've got to set me down! Otherwise, I'll have my old man kill you half to death—please, just let me go!"
Ahui sighed, saying, "Full-Young, just bear with me a little. When we get home, I'll cut off this arm to make it up to you."
As they approached the car, Ahui opened the door and pushed Zhou Quan inside.
Lu Yun followed closely behind, without speaking, frowning slightly as though he had something on his mind. It wasn't until Zhou Quan was pushed into the car by Ah Hui that, through the slightly open window, he addressed Zhou Quan, who was now furious: "Zhou Quan, I agree with your cousin's approach. You should go back for a while. When you have time, please come by to see me." "What the hell do I have to go back for? I'm still going to keep hanging out with you—dating, fighting, taking hits together!" Saying this, Zhou Quan reached for the door handle to open it, only to be pulled back by Li Huashan, who sat beside him. Frustrated, he banged his head repeatedly against the roof of the car. "Ah Hui, drive!" Li Huashan ordered, and Ah Hui immediately started the engine, gently moving forward. "Lu Yun, I'll definitely come back to see you. Just wait for me!" Zhou Quan stuck his head out of the window and called out loudly. Lu Yun stood there motionless, waving at Zhou Quan, tears welling up in his eyes—his emotions unclear, perhaps, but
