C18 (2/2)
It seemed that he had overestimated himself. He had just received the inheritance and was already showing off his strength before he had even started cultivating. If he could focus on his research for a period of time, he wouldn't have waited for death to come.
With regret in his heart, Jun Lanyue waited for the sword to pierce through his chest …
”Are you bullying my family?” A voice rang out in the conference hall, causing the Grand Matriarch's countenance to change. Jun Lanyue's eyes gleamed with a light, as though he was grasping at straws.
This voice was too familiar to him.
The doctor looked unresigned. He gritted his teeth and said, ”Ah Yu, come back.”
The servant girl acted as if she hadn't heard the Grand Matriarch's order. The blade of the sword had already cut through Jun Linyue's clothes. The next step was to pierce his flesh and reap his life. When the tip of the sword touched Jun Lanyue's skin, it was difficult for him to advance in the slightest.
It was unknown when Jun Sacred Profound had appeared between the two of them, but he had stopped all of the servant girl's attacks with a single hand. He grabbed onto the servant girl's arm and threw her towards the first wife as if he was throwing a gunny sack.
”It seems like sister-in-law's authority can't teach a servant well. Do you want me to discipline her instead?” Jun Juanxuan lightly patted Jun Lanyue's body, breaking the Body Securing Curse with ease.
The First Lady reached out to catch Ah Yu, even though she was prepared for her words, but who could have imagined that the force behind Ah Yu would be so strong? She kept backing away, smashing the chair behind her, and only stopped when her foot landed on the wall, causing a clear footprint to form on the wall, sinking deep into the wall.
The First Wife placed Ah Yu, who had already fainted, on the other chair. Only then did she extend her blessings to the Sovereign Saint Xuan. She said, ”It's my sister-in-law's fault today. I've troubled Uncle.”
”There's no need for that,” the Monarch said with a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes, ”Sister-in-law, don't blame me for meddling in other people's business. This Hou Mansion, in the end, will be Little Wu's.
After Jun Lin Yue had left, Jun Lin Yu finally dared to speak, ”Mother, why didn't you tell uncle that Jun Lin Yue had committed a heinous crime while practising mystical arts?”
The first wife caressed Jun Bluemoon's face, which could still be considered handsome, before she suddenly slapped him, knocking him to the ground. Idiot, shut up! You are not allowed to bring up anything that you hear today. Even if you are talking in your sleep, keep your mouth shut! ”
Jun Linyu covered his swollen face with a face full of grievance. He didn't understand what he had done; this was the first time he had been beaten by the first wife, and the pain on his face was stimulating him. ”Alright, I understand.”
After all, he was her own son. The first wife pulled the trembling Jun Yingyu into her embrace and comforted her, ”My son, did I just hurt you?” Don't blame your mother. This matter is far more complicated than you can imagine. If you don't know, then it's fine. It is true that the bastard Jun Lanyue is a cultivator, but on the surface, he is the marquis of our Black Tortoise.
”Don't think that you have a weakness. You should know that this is a sharp blade that is enough to overturn the Black Tortoise.” The First Madam let out a sigh. Originally, Jun Juanxuan had only been living in seclusion in the back mountains, using the three strongest experts of the Azure Province to influence the Black Tortoise Mansion. Now, he had directly intervened.
The first wife had never been able to see through Monarch Sacred Profound. All his actions in the past had been indifferent towards fame and fortune, so why would he make a move this time? What was his purpose?
