    Chapter 26:

    Li Zhichang carefully thought: "On the basis of the five teacher's profound cultivation, how could they let people fight like this outside the cave without doing anything? Their practice must have reached a critical stage and cannot afford to divert their attention and come out to deal with the foreign enemy. But with that call from Junior Wang, if they did happen to hear it, it will have thrown their minds into disorder."

    Days went by. The wounds started to heal gradually, and Yang Guo found himself on the path to recovery. Every time he thought of the Little Dragon Girl, he would still feel pain from his chest, but it was far from the kind of unbearable pain he used to have.

    "I suppose the reason why the Divine Eagle has such tremendous strength is because it had eaten a lot of gallbladders of this strange specie of snakes," he thought to himself.

    "If auntie could see the great kung fu skills I possess now, she would be very happy for me for sure. Alas, where is she now? Is she also staring at the beautiful moon and thinking of me?" As soon as he thought of the Little Dragon Girl, severe pain arose inside his chest.

    Chapter 27:

    Guo Fu lifted her head, saying: "Father, he kidnapped my sister and said a lot of rubbish, slandering daughter. Father, even though his Yang family and ours go back a long way, that is not to say I have to let him bully me and not resist, does it?
    it?"

    His voice trembled: "Fu’er, this must be done. Even though I'm being severe with you, in my heart I love you just the same as your mother. His voice turned gentle at the end of the speech.
    mother."

    From the beginning, Huang Rong had understood her husband's straight foreword character, quite old-fashioned and extremely righteous.
    forward

    Huang Rong suddenly called out "Take him" and tossed her husband the baby.
    the baby to her husband.

    Huang Rong thought: "This blockhead daughter of mine has been overprotected all her life; never being confronted with any problems, she doesn't try to solve difficulties using strategy, she can only shout angrily, which worsens the matter", Huang Rong hurriedly approached, held the ling-pai (which she had snatched from Guo Jing's waist belt) high and shouted: "This is the ling-pai of Honorable Lu:! Please examine!"
    matter".

    After choosing ten scarlet apples, putting them in her bosom, Huang Rong groped in her pocket for money. Suddenly, a very loud woman's voice was heard: "Give me twenty catties rice and one catty salt. (1 catty = 1.1 pounds/ 500 grams) Put them all in this sack, please."
    *how in the world did HR fit all those ten apples in her bosom? Imagine how she looks with all ten apples on her chest. LOL! No correction btw.

    Huang Rong, staying very close, had never a chance to dodge them.
    never had

    Huang Rong thought: "The fact alone that she is hesitating counts as a plus point for her. No matter what choice she makes, I must let her live. She has accumulated such a huge blood debt; there will certainly be someone in the future that will revenge them self on her."
    take revenge

    Yang Guo rode speedily; he saw the trees on the roadside flying away. He looked at Guo Xiang on his bosom, seeing her tender and delicate small face, he thought: "Uncle and Aunt Guo, your youngest daughter will always be mine, think of it as a kind of compensation for my lost arm. They would feel grieved and dejected, especially because they excel me.
    me."

    Wang Chuyi was also furious, shouting: "Long Guniang [Miss Long], even though your Gu Mu sect and our Quanzhen sect share the same mountain ridge, we both stick to our own sides. What is the reason are you leading these foreign people from the West, these evil miscreants, to kill many disciples of mine?"
    you are

    Suppose Jinlun Fawang and the Mongolian warriors wiped out Quanzhen Five Masters, he would be able to escape forever.
    out the

    So he said: Yang Xiong [Brother Yang]'s Kung Fu is excellent. Congratulations! I admit defeat."
    "Yang

    If he himself stepped forward to fight, even though he would not defeated like the other three fighters, to seek victory would not
    be
    easy.
    not be

    The wheels were not yet to smash his head but the tip of his sword was already less than half a foot away from Fawang's chest.
    yet

    He loudly said: "Da Shi Ge [Big Apprentice Brother], please spare little brother's life. Wait for me to save the master and search for that scum [heart of a wolf & lung of a dog] of a disciple so I could break him into ten thousand pieces. After that I'll voluntarily throw my life into Da Shi Ge [Big Apprentice Brother]'s hand. At that time you'll kill me or cut me, little brother won't even dare to frown.
    frown."

    Qiu Chuji said in a clear voice: "Yang Guo, so your martial skills have reached this stage; our generation is far, far inferior. But our sect has several hundred people; do you think you can break through our blockade by yourself?
    yourself?"



    Chapter 27 Done!


    I'd like to point out that in most chapters the punctuation marks specifically “ and ” were used but in some chapters like chapter 27, " was used. This is just a minor thing but maybe if you'd like to fix this for all chapters then it would be great. Quite a ton of work to do if you ask me hehe.

    I have picked up a few of those before. They usually happen when there's a misused space before the word.
    I'll put up chapter 28 now.

    After changing many quote marks in the chapter it suddenly dawned on me that the quote marks in the chapter are
    just a different style [vertical] than usual and I ain't changing any more.

    Yet another thing to watch out for is me not changing Taoist(s) monk(s) to priest(s). Athena will harass me if I (we) don't pick up on this!

He took your sister away to make us worry. When time passes and his anger disappears, he'll just bring your sister back to us. Have you understood? You accused him of stealing your little sister so he simply did it to show you that he could!

    Bangs stood 2 zhangs away from Huang Yushi. The two combatants gave each other a cold stare. Huang Yushi created a great wind as he swung his semantics at Bangs. Bangs parried this slash and followed with a blow from his own sematics. The combined winds from this battle raised much dust which caused them to cough and their eyes to water leaving dirty tear trails on their faces. "Enough!" both declared and decided lunch would be more enjoyable, so off they went, shoulder to shoulder, already thinking of the dimsum to come. Both smiled in anticipation. The battle was over....for now.

Im pretty sure one has to pass the 5 coffins room to get inside Gu Mu since the room is the only place linked to the secret passage. Im puzzled as how they even got to Guo Xiang first before getting to the 5 coffins. Where exactly did LMC trapped them? If they were trapped before the 5 coffins room, that would explain how they never passed the 5 coffins room but that also wouldn't make sense since GX's room is beyond the 5 coffins. If they were trapped after the coffin room then they shouldn't be startled to see the 5 coffins. The only logical explanation I can think of is that they did pass the 5 coffins room but since it is pitch dark, they didn't really notice the coffins, until when they got back and had torches with them. Err sorry for my pondering over such an insignificant small matter.

    Speaking in retrospect, the Yang-Long couple was not supposed to be hiding in the coffin and therefore give her a fright.

    Yang Guo didn’t want her to feel bad about these things so with a smile he said, “We are newly wed. The Mongolian army set fires to congratulate us. How would they not use tons and tons flowers as candles?

    *No correction. Im just wondering how they got inside the ancient tomb without passing through the 5 coffins. Im pretty sure one has to pass the 5 coffins room to get inside Gu Mu since the room is the only place linked to the secret passage.

    This part bothered me as well, especially since the entrance to the secret chamber below Gu Mu was in one of the coffins. When Guo Fu and the others were trapped and fumbling around in the dark they couldn't help but find at least one coffin! Big Boo-boo by JY? I wonder if Athena noticed it? I think I'll ask her.

    Chapter 30 is up.

    Chapter 30:

    The thin beggar continued, “Peng Zhang Lao [Elder Peng], you’ve promised someone something. Sooner or later you’ve got to do it. You seniors keep putting things off, disappointing other people.
    people.”

    By now the two monks had been here for about half an hour, and the thin beggar’s body was thoroughly covered with white snow, even his eyes couldn’t been seen.
    be

    Elder Peng acted like he was frightened and said, “This person was really strange. Why did he hide in the snow?” Eh, why was he holding a knife?”
    snow?

    The white-eyebrowed monk said, “You only knew that this was a snowman so you didn’t mean to hurt people. But your palms were wickedly powerful, without restraint. How can it be said that you didn’t have murderous intentions?
    intentions?”

    Reverend Yideng brought his hand up to his chest, his body smiledghtly swaying, as he blocked that palm strike.
    *What does this word mean? I can't find any definition of it. I found it in two sentences so it couldn't have been a typo.

    Yideng’s body shook, and he threw up another pool of blood, staining his white beard and monks robe.
    monk’s

    He continued, “Those people were traitorous disciples of the Beggar Clan, like a wolf hiding in our homeland of China. Your killing two such people was really a great thing. If they hadn’t been killed, I don’t know how many of our fellow Buddhists might have had to die. Lord Buddha is merciful but, meeting with such demons, how could benevolence still be used to expel evil spirits?
    spirits?”

    Reverend Yideng’s thousands and thousands of words couldn’t get though to him but Yang Guo’s one sword made him realize that, “Killing brings misery. I only knew how to kill people. Being killed like this is actually miserable.”
    through

    Li Mochou knew that she was still in shock, and so she shouted, “Here come again!”
    Here I

    His pants were ripped by the poisonous thorns, blood dripping from his thighs and calf’s.

    She had to force herself to say ‘Martial Uncle.”
    ‘Martial Uncle’.

    While people had been busy arguing, they forget all about Li Mochou and her disciple who were stuck in the sea of flowers.
    forgot

    With a faint smile Huang Rong replied, “I wouldn’t dare to. I’m only going to tell you one thing. You should have used your long sword to dig up the soil and wrapped it with your outer gown, making two very large balls. And if you had thrown them into the flower thicket, wouldn’t they have made good stepping stones? Not only could you have gotten out safely, you wouldn’t have had to hurt anyone.
    anyone.”

    Li Mochou’s faces color changed from white to red and then red to white.

    Armed with a saber and a flute, Cheng Ying and Lu Wushuang moved a couple of steps forwards.

    “It was that villain Gongsun Zhi who did it,” replied Qiu Qianchi
    Qianchi.

    Qiu Qianchi said bitterly, “Why do you still call him 'my husband’? The traitor has a wolf’s heart and dog’s lungs. He plotted against me.”
    *a wolf's heart is ok, but dog's lungs? What does that have to do with being evil? Is she trying to be funny or what? LOL! No correction hehehe...

    Huang Rong mused, “I was guarding against her vicious attack but never would I have expected that she could out shoot out a ferocious projectile like this without even moving her body, limbs, or neck.”
    shoot out

    He brightly said, “I’m already married to the Long girl. Even I, Yang Guo, am doomed to die, how can I shirk my responsibilities?”
    *Let's change this to 'Long’er', I think its rude to refer to someone you love as 'the Long girl' and XLN was just right beside him too.

    She turned her head back towards Ci’en and said, “Second brother, I’ve heard that Huang Rong is Chief of the Beggar Clan. We, “Iron Palm Clan”, don’t dare to offend her.
    her.”

    Ci’en said, “Iron Palm Clan? It’s already been disbanded. How could there still be such a clan?
    clan?”

    Lu’E words were very strange, and he still couldn’t figure out her intention.
    Lu’E’s




    Chapter 30 done!
    Gongsun Lu'E is one of the most admirable character in ROCH.
