Chapter 347 (2/2)

”But we are not related at all! Do you remember father saying that he would marry me to you if you couldn't find a wife in the future?” Ye Chaomu pushed on stubbornly.

”You trust father's words? What a foolish girl.” Xiang Shaoyun rolled his eyes.

”I don't care. I want to be with big brother forever. I won't allow any other woman to like you. Let's get it done right this instant!” said Ye Chaomu resolutely.

She then pulled Xiang Shaoyun's blanket away, revealing his firm, muscular chest.

”HEY! HEY! Have you gone mad?” Xiang Shaoyun screeched.

”Hehe, Big Brother Shaoyun, just take me. I will treat you well in the future,” said Ye Chaomu with a devilish smile on her face.

”Ye Chaomu...you can get my body, but you won't be able to get my heart!” yelled Xiang Shaoyun with a resolute tone.

Crack!

...

After a long while, Ye Chaomu finally left the room with a satisfied look on her face. With the wide smile she had, it was clear she was in an excellent mood. Behind her was Xiang Shaoyun who had on a gloomy expression. ”Ye Chaomu, are you a dog or a human? Why did you bite me that hard?”

”Hmph! If I don't bite hard, you won't learn your lesson!” said Ye Chaomu smugly.

”You are a little devil,” declared Xiang Shaoyun.

”Yes, I am a little devil. You will never be able to escape me,” said Ye Chaomu as she brandished her fist at Xiang Shaoyun.

Xiang Shaoyun couldn't be bothered to continue bickering with her, and he headed to Elder Zhen Peng's room. Elder Zhen Peng was already awake. He was staring at the ceiling with a pair of empty eyes. No emotion could be seen in his eyes, as if there was no longer any meaning in life for him. Even when Xiang Shaoyun approached him, he did not react.

Looking at Elder Zhen Peng's condition filled Xiang Shaoyun with guilt. He spoke gently, ”Elder Zhen Peng, I'm here to see you.”

Finally, there were some movements in Elder Zhen Peng's eyes. Sorrow filled them as he said with a hoa.r.s.e voice, ”M-Martial Hall Palace is no more.”

Xiang Shaoyun gripped his hand and said, ”I am sorry, Elder Zhen Peng. It was my fault. Without me, this calamity would not have happened to the Martial Hall Palace, and you wouldn't have suffered this much either.”

”Sigh,” Elder Zhen Peng took a long sigh before shutting his eyes again, seemingly not having anything more to say.

”Elder Zhen Peng, this is a clearmoon vine. It will help restore your meridians. Here, eat it. I'll help you up,” said Xiang Shaoyun as he took the clearmoon vine out.

Elder Zhen Peng opened his eyes and asked in agitation, ”Will I recover?”

”Yes, you will be able to stand on your own feet again soon,” Xiang Shaoyun solemnly promised.

”Ok! I want to get back up! I want to rebuild the Martial Hall Palace! I will not let the Martial Hall Palace end here!” said Elder Zhen Peng with a look of resolute longing.

For some reason, a sense of veneration rose in Xiang Shaoyun when he heard those words. He said solemnly, ”Ok. When you get well again, I will do everything I can to help you rebuild the Martial Hall Palace. In the future, it will be even more powerful than the Cloud Margin Pavilion, becoming an organization that will last forever!”

He then fed Elder Zhen Peng the clearmoon vine.
