Wuxia Crossover: Stack Attack and Defense Through Combat, Meeting Huang Rong from the Start

After transmigrating to Xiangyang in the Southern Song, Ning Yuan had barely opened his eyes when he ran into Huang Rong, badly wounded and poisoned. The drugged Beggar Clan leader mistook him for Guo Jing. After one reckless night, she came to her senses and pointed her Dog-Beating Staff at his brow. "How much do you remember?" she asked coldly. "Everything," he replied. Her gaze turned icy, but he didn't back down from the staff's tip. "You can kill me easily, but whoever poisoned you is still alive, and the assassins hunting you got away. Are you sure you want to waste what little strength you have left here?"

Huang Rong lowered her staff, but that didn't mean she was letting him go. Hooves thundered outside the temple, and eight men in black burst through the door. Injured but still fighting, she killed six of them. As the last two fled, one swung his blade at Ning Yuan. He grabbed the head of a clay idol and hurled it at the man's face. Huang Rong landed the final blow from behind, then glanced at him, the corner of her mouth twitching as if she were trying not to laugh.

A System notification appeared: Hit an opponent's attack: Attack +1. Take damage: Defense +1. Successfully dodge: Speed +1. Current stats: Attack 5, Defense 3, Speed 4. Looking at the bodies strewn across the floor and Huang Rong standing with her staff, Ning Yuan murmured to himself, "How many stacks is that?"
