2341 Jealousy 4 (2/2)

He managed to spot the flaw. Determined, he decided to target his sword at Di Fuyi. Di Fuyi avoided the sword at the very last minute, which came as a disappointment to the man. However, Mr. Zhu was still delighted that he finally managed to strike back.

”Master, you are the best. What should I do next?” Delighted, Mr. Zhu asked in excitement.

Gu Xijiu did not pay any attention to him. Instead, she gazed at Di Fuyi and said, ”Yuanyuan was hurt because of me. The man was only asking for the cure on my behalf. Fight me, if revenge is what you seek. Stop making it difficult for the innocent man.”

Di Fuyi turned and looked at her. ”Do you really think that I beat him up because of Yuanyuan?” The tone in his voice was stern and ice cold.

His expression turned into utter disappointment while his aura was getting stronger and stronger. It had reached a point where it was suffocating even for Gu Xijiu to be around him.

However, she did not step back. ”I cannot think of any other reason.”

There was a look of sorrow in his eyes. ”Very well, then!” He exclaimed.

Then, he took a leap and gave Mr. Zhu a sudden strike. The man was caught off guard by the sudden attack. Di Fuyi hit him right on the left side of his chest.

”Crack!” Three sharp blows could be heard. With a groan, Mr. Zhu realized that he had three fractured ribs as a result of the impact. He spat a mouthful of blood while pressing hard against the wound on his chest. He fell back weakly and tumbled.

With a laugh, Di Fuyi teased, ”What a lousy man! Yuanyuan has two broken ribs because of you, so now I am making you suffer the same. The extra one is the price you have to pay for what you have done. If you dare to harm her again, I will make sure that you suffer ten times more than what you have suffered today.” Mr. Zhu was utterly shocked while Gu Xijiu did not know what to say. Di Fuyi ignored them and left.

Tranquility finally returned to the barren land. Nothing much had changed, other than their feelings toward each other.
