After a few moments he managed to compose himself and saw that the traces of blood on the snake had not yet congealed. He realized then that it couldn't have been very long since the snake had died, so the culprit must still be near by. He immediately leapt up into a tall tree and looked all around for any signs of the thief. From there he saw the vicious fight between Guo Jing and Wanyan Kang going on in the garden. Burning with fury and anger, he leaped down and sped off towards the fight. As soon as he arrived he could already smell the pungent smell of the snake's blood coming from Guo Jing.

Guo Jing was not Wanyan Kang's equal yet when it came to fighting and from the start he was already at a disadvantage. To make matters worse, he felt his stomach burning up with and unbearable heat as if it were full of boiling water. He was terribly thirsty and itched most terribly all over his body.

"This time I'm certain to die," he thought, "The snake's poison is beginning to take hold."

In the midst of these fearful thoughts he was being struck repeatedly by Wanyan Kang's fists which were made even more painful by the effects of the poison.

"You filthy bastard!" yelled Liang Ziwong, "Who sent you to steal my precious snake?" He couldn't imagine that some stupid kid would know about such a secret as that of the snake. He thought it must be someone else who put him up to the task. In fact he was almost certain that it was Wang Chuyi who had sent Guo Jing.

When Guo Jing heard this he was furious. "That precious snake of yours attacked and poisoned me! I've got a bone to pick with you!" (Tr. Sorry, it's hard to render it into better english without becoming too inaccurate) and he leaped toward Liang Ziwong with his fists raised for attack.

Liang Ziwong however smelt the medicine smell mingled with the snake blood and had an evil thought. "He has drunk the snakes blood. If I kill him now and drink his blood then I may still be able to gain the beneficial effects. Who knows, maybe the drug's effects will be enhanced…" As soon as he thought of this his anger vanished and he leaped towards Guo Jing to meet his attack. With his superior gongfu he was able to easily lock Guo Jing's arms and legs and hold him down. He then prepared to bite into Guo Jing's neck to extract his precious drug/medicine…

Meanwhile Huang Rong, no matter how quickly she moved had not been able to get past Sha Tongtian. She was already getting anxious about what would happen if he decided to catch her. She decided that a change of tact may be more appropriate.

"If I can get through the door then you promise to leave me be, okay?" She asked.

"If you can get through the door I will admit defeat." replied Sha Tongtian.

"Ai yo! What a pity my father only taught me the skill of entering, not the skill of leaving." she sighed.

"What is this 'entering' and 'leaving' skill?" Sha Tongtian asked half doubting, half curiously.

"Your 'Change form exchange place' skill, although not bad, is still far below that of my father's skills. Way below in fact." she boasted.

"Don't talk crap you stupid girl." Sha Tongtian retorted angrily. "Anyway, who is your father?"

"If I told you my father's name, I'm afraid I would scare you out of your wits, so it's best if I don't say." Huang Rong replied mischievously. "When he taught me the skill of entering he hid by the door way and I tried to rush in from outside. I tried many times but was never able to get past him. However even though I cannot get out against you with your piddling skills, there is no way that you could stop me from getting back in. I wouldn't even have to raise a sweat"

Sha Tongtian laughed coldly and said, "From outside going in or from inside going out, what's the difference? OK you come here and show me!" With that he moved aside to let her demonstrate the great 'entering' gongfu which she boasted.

Huang Rong immediately shot outside and laughed, "Ha, you fell for my trick. You said a minute ago that if I could get through the door that you would admit defeat and would let me go. Well am I outside now? Did I not go through the door? Come now Dragon King Sha, you are an honorable man, your word is your bond. You cannot think of going back on what you promised in front of all these gentlemen."

Although Sha Tongtian knew that she had tricked him, she was correct, his word was his bond and he could hardly go back on what he promised. He scratched his bald head and flushed red but could see no way to get out of this.

Peng Lianhu however was not about to let Huang Rong get away. He suddenly shot out a stream of darts towards her. The darts were extremely fast but they were aimed close to the back of her head rather than right at her. However when they hit the stone pillar they ricocheted towards her. They were too fast for her to catch and she had no choice but to leap forward a pace to avoid them. The darts continued in a stream and each one forced her to moved forward half a few inches. Before she knew it she had moved back inside the hall again!

Peng Lianhu's objective all along had been to force her back into the room and everyone watching exclaimed their praise at his skill. He just laughed and said, "What's this? You've gone back inside again!"

Huang Rong scowled, "Huh! You used your 'ninja' weapons to bully a girl and force her to move, what's so fantastic about that!"

"Who was bullying you?" he asked incredulously. I never laid a finger on you or harmed you!"

"Then let me go!" she said angrily.

"First tell us who taught you your gongfu." he demanded.

Huang Rong smiled and said, "I taught myself whilst in my mother's womb!"

Peng Lianhu said, "If you're not willing to tell us then perhaps I can find out another way!" With this he shot his fist straight towards her shoulder.

Huang Rong didn't move or try to block the blow. She figured that he wouldn't dare to act so shamelessly as to hit a girl who refused to fight back.

When Peng Lianhu saw she wasn't going to fight he pulled short his punch and withdrew his arm shouting, "Come on, show me what you've got. Stupid girl! I bet I can find out who your master by your style of fighting within 10 (martial arts) moves."

He had seen many styles during his life and although he had seen the Huang Rong was a very crafty girl, he was confident that she would not be able to hide her real martial arts style from him in a true fight. In fact he thought he needed no more than ten to do so.

Huang Rong asked, "And if you have not found out within ten moves?"

Huang Rong turned her body and dodged whilst forming a ring with her thumb and little finger and stretching the remaining fingers to form a three-pronged fork. Using this she counter attacked using the 'Night Trident Searches the Sea'.

Hou Tonghai cried out, "'Night Trident Searches the Sea!' Senior Brother, this brat must be from the……Our (?Book says ?? so i'm guessing he must be referring to his own school – i.e. Demon Sect?) School of Martial Arts."
