Chapter 69: Blustering (1/2)

Translator: Soldier

At the gateway of the mansion of the Murong family's offshoot, the situation remained deadlocked.

There were still houses ablaze inside the mansion. People were doing whatever they could trying to put out the fire, but it seemed as if the fire had gone uncontrollable.

”Young–Young Master, the fire has spread to the West Garden... ”

”Young Master, the fire in the South Garden is too fierce. We failed to save your favorite bird... ”

”Young Master... ”

Thousand Murong, who was standing in front of the vermilion-lacquered gate, heard the urgent reports from those servants and guards, the look on his face growing more and more sepulchral.

Hearing that his favorite bird had died in the fire, he felt a piercing pain, as if his heart was bleeding. In order to get that bird, he had gone through a lot of trouble and spent a large sum of money, but now it was roasted.

Anger glinted in his piercing eyes, but the bleeding wound in his arm seemed to be reminding him that he would surely suffer if he fight with this teenage girl again.

As a result, he was waiting – waiting for reinforcements.

Yun Wu knew clearly what Thousand Murong was up to, but she wanted exactly the same thing that he wanted.

Waiting – she was also waiting.

The arrival of the Patriarch of the Murong family would be the beginning of the real show.

”Who's the one threatening to massacre the Murong family?” suddenly, an angry roar came from the distance, splitting the air.

The potent Qi of a Tier IX early-stage warrior could be distinctly felt even if he was still a long distance away.

The faces of those lookers-on suddenly changed as soon as they felt the heavy pressure.

”That's the Second Patriarch of the Murong family... ”

”A Tier IX kung fu expert... ”

Exclamation of amazement and scary rippled through the crowds. As if afraid of accidentally getting hurt, all lookers-on backed off in unison, raised their heads and looked in the direction of that figure flying nearer.

Seeing that Sky Murong, who was dressed in a dark gray brocade robe, soon approached them from far away, all lookers-on were awed.

But right after him, there was Earth Murong dressed in a purple brocade robe embroidered with a totem. His strength had reached peak stage of Tier VIII, which meant that he was a powerful kung fu expert, too.

Soon, two figures landed on the ground in front of the gate on which there was a long crack caused by the previous fighting.

With this crack, the originally solemn and sumptuous gateway lost all its air of luxury.

Sky Murong's face was terrifyingly sullen and it went even more sepulchral when Sky Murong saw that more than half of the houses in his mansion had been burnt down.

This scene was more than painful.

”Qian'er, how did you get hurt?” Earth Murong also had a gloomy look on his face when he landed, but with his sharp eyes, he noticed that Thousand Murong, who was standing before the gate, had a bleeding wound in his arm.

Thousand Murong's face also looked sepulchral, but he still respectfully called, ”Third Uncle!”

Sky Murong raised his eyes to dart a glance at him and with that his pupils contracted, ”Qian'er, you got hurt as well?”

His son was in peak stage of Tier VII, yet he also got hurt?

”Who is it? Since you were bold enough to bluff, now stop acting like a coward and show yourself!” Sky Murong thundered.

”Haven't I been standing here all along? Are you blind?” Yun Wu, who had been looking down, finally slowly raised her eyes and spoke in a cold, bland voice, as if she had almost fallen asleep due to the long wait for them.

Sky Murong abruptly turned around and hurled a blast of potent Tier IX power towards her.

But the next second, when he saw Yun Wu's face, his pupils abruptly contracted, amazement glinting in his eyes.

”It's you?”

Watching Sky Murong, Yun Wu slightly curved her lips, but there was a half smile on her face, ”It's been a couple of days, but Second Patriarch Murong's greeting style remains the same.”

Hearing this, those passers-by looked somewhat confused.

It had been a couple of days?

The two knew each other?

After doing a double take when he heard her words, Sky Murong clenched his fists, feeling anger tinged with fear.

He had experienced the eeriness of this teenage girl, not to mention that there she was with a man who was a Grand Kung Fu Master.

Subconsciously, Sky Murong's eyes swept around her.

”Second Elder Brother, you know her?”

Earth Murong glimpsed at Yun Wu who was in gunny clothes and frowned. He couldn't identify her strength level.

However, a teenage girl like her had actually managed to wound Sky Murong and kill the fat man at Tier VI? And she had also injured those guards?

How was this possible?

Earth Murong was rather skeptical.

At this moment, before Sky Murong could reply...

”Move aside, move aside. Why are you all standing here? Clear off,” an impatient female voice came from amid the crowd.

Crowds of passers-by made way and Snow Murong quickly walked through them, followed by a couple of guards.

Snow Murong had already had someone to dispatch the garrison, but she didn't wait for them to arrive. Instead, she led a couple of guards here first.

She wanted to find out who was so bodacious as to challenge her family's authority.
