"Heh, next ti is next ti, but I won’t let you off so easily next ti," Cheng Zhijie gave you a peculiar, chilling glance, like a breeze that swept cold from your head to your toes, sending a shudder of dread through your heart.
"Yun’er, co here, your father has sothing to tell you."
You nodded, promptly approaching his side.
"Today, at the imperial court, His Majesty brought up the matter of you entering court to take up an official post, but your father tactfully declined. However, His Majesty is unlikely to give up. I know his character very well, so from now on, you need to be cautious and not give His Majesty any excuse to co after you."
"Yes, Father. I understand."
"At the sa ti, your father would like to hear what you think."
You contemplated before answering, "I’m afraid my temperant isn’t suited for being an official, Father. As you know, I am impetuous and easily offend people, which isn’t suitable for holding office. It would be better to join the army as a general. However, now is not the ti. Today, I made progress in cultivating the Immortal Law that my ntor taught , and I must not give up halfway."
"Mm, your father has noticed this as well. Since that’s the case, then go ahead and do what you want to do. But rember not to overdo it, as harming your health would be unfortunate."
"Yes."
You gave a bow to the two before turning away and leaving. As you exited the hall, Old Demon Cheng dropped a comnt that nearly made you trip: "I say, Brother Luo, what do you think about our children getting married?"
"That matter can be discussed another day. Right now, the situation at the border is tense, and I fear a great war is imminent."
You lost interest in their conversation and returned to your own hut. Pushing open the door, you found the room empty, not a soul in sight.
You reflexively called out for Little Yue, but halted mid-sentence, rembering she had already left. After a quick wash, you planned to grab sothing to eat from the kitchen, but before you could leave, you saw Zi Yi and Cui’er had already prepared a fragrant al waiting for you in the courtyard.
You were deeply moved, and the al tasted delicious, but for so reason, you still missed Little Yue.
You decided to set out early the next morning to find Little Yue. At all costs, you had to snatch her back from Granny Yang’s devilish clutches.
The next day, perhaps due to Little Yue’s absence, you slept heavily. Waking late, with the sun already high, you hurriedly washed and left your room to find that Cui’er and Zi Yi had prepared breakfast for you. You ate quickly and then mounted your horse and set out. Arriving at Little Yue’s dilapidated courtyard, you found the entrance crowded with people.
Without uttering a word, you opened the Resting door and your body transford into a blur as you leapt into the courtyard. Your abrupt entrance imdiately drew the attention of everyone in the yard, among them Lin Chongxiu, whom you had bound the day before. Seeing you, he burst into a frenzied scream, "Elder brother, it’s this guy! He’s the one who almost killed last night!"
At that mont, a pompous man in brocade stood beside Lin Chongxiu, looking at you disdainfully and said with a scornful tone, "You’ve got so nerve, daring to abduct and even attempt to injure my third brother!"
You paid him no mind; your gaze was solely fixed on Little Yue and her family, who were kneeling on the ground. At this mont, all four mbers of Little Yue’s family knelt before the Lin brothers, surrounded by sinister-looking guards.
No one could fathom how you were feeling right now—your heart was like an erupting volcano, barely resisting the urge to puml the Lin brothers into a pulp!
"Old Lady, get up quickly."
You ignored the Lin Brothers and directly helped Old Yang up, followed by Little Yue’s mother, then Little Yue, and lastly, the woman draped in a long robe—the stall owner who was also Little Yue’s aunt. Unknown to others, in the mont you helped up Little Yue’s aunt, you accidentally touched her finger, and both of your bodies jerked as if struck by thunder and lightning. You quickly pulled your hand back, while Little Yue’s aunt hastily tucked her hand into her robe.
"Damn it! Who dares to let them up without my command?"
"I dare!"
You roared angrily, and with a fierce kick, you sent a guard flying! Yes, there was no mistyped word there—the poor guard really was kicked by you like a football, flying over the courtyard wall, soaring over the rooftops, landing sowhere unknown.
"Step forward, and die!" With your roar echoing again, none of the surrounding guards dared to step over the line.
"You, do you know who I am!" The brocade-clad man pointed at you, "You little beast, do you know that I am—Ah!!!"
Another pig-like scream followed by an even more miserable howl! First, you twisted the brocade-clad man’s fingers askew, then a trace of ferocity glinted in your eyes, and with a "crack," you broke his fingers. To you, the sound of bones breaking and the brocade-clad man’s screams mingled into a symphony of sheer beauty, almost making you want to shout out loud.
Exhilarating, truly fucking exhilarating!
After rging with the Karma Obstacles, you found that your personality indeed had changed, but this change did not cause you any aversion. You believed that as a man, this was how one should be—living with passion and seeking revenge!
"Let go, let go of my hand now!"
The brocade-clad man issued another terrified scream, simply because you felt that breaking his fingers was too light—it was rely an appetizer.
At this mont, your hand was gripping the brocade-clad man’s entire palm; the "crack, crack" of grinding bones was unbearably piercing, making the bystanders’ faces turn pale, and so even turned away, unable to look directly.
"So arrogant! You were so damn arrogant before, weren’t you? I will show you arrogance!"
"Ah!!!"
Amidst the brocade-clad man’s agonizing screams, your right hand suddenly flashed with countless golden lights, and then you crushed his right palm into a lump of flesh, blood spurting out instantly, staining your entire right hand and chest red!
"Devil! You devil!"
The guards seed to have snapped out of it, hastily pulling the brocade-clad man away while encircling the Lin Brothers protectively. They seed to forget that they had around twenty n on their side, and you were just one person alone.
You twisted your neck, then took out the declaration signed and stamped by Lin Chongxiu from the night before from your chest, handing it over to Little Yue’s aunt—the woman in the robe. The woman stretched out her slender hand and read the declaration.
After the woman finished reading, you watched the Lin Brothers, who looked like they were facing a formidable enemy, and said with a laugh, "Hehe, Lin Chongxiu, you’re not bad, really not bad. Hahaha, I spared you last night, and today, you actually have the audacity to co make trouble at my house."
"You, your house? When did this place beco your house?"
