Chapter 70: A Bloodbath in the Murong Mansion (1/2)

Translator: Soldier

The man was clothed in a dark yellow brocade robe, and there was an air of steadiness and mildness about him, but the mildness was mixed with a trace of stateliness. He was around forty-five or so, neither fat nor thin, looking pretty refined.

Compared with that of Sky Murong and Earth Murong, the Qi of this middle-aged man walking towards the gateway was noticeably more restrained.

He was Cloud Murong, the Lord of Luoyang City.

”You must be really busy, my lord. I've been through a lot to get you here,” Yun Wu twisted her head around to look at Cloud Murong who was walking closer and said in a sneering tone.

The face of the Captain of Guards, who was behind Cloud Murong, darkened as he heard her sneering words, ”Watch your mouth, girl. This is the Lord of Luoyang City. It's not your place to – ”

However, before the Captain of Guards could finish his rebuke, the middle-aged man raised his hand and stopped him.

”Wait here, all of you,” after making this remark in a dignified tone, Cloud Murong walked towards Yun Wu.

”My name is Cloud Murong. I'm the Lord of Luoyang City as well as the father of the girl beneath you whip. May I ask whether you could release my daughter first before we talk?” Cloud Murong didn't get angry and his Qi had been mild and steady all along.

He must have already been informed of what had happened earlier.

This Cloud Murong was numerous times more restrained than that so-called the Second Patriarch and the Third Patriarch.

Judging from the fact that he had been composed all along after seeing how his daughter was being treated, his amazing secretiveness was beyond Yun Wu's expectation.

But after remaining silent for a second, Yun Wu twitched her waist and withdrew the whip without saying anything.

Seeing that Yun Wu compromised so willingly, Sky Murong and the others secretly snorted, thinking that she was afraid of the Lord of the City and those garrison soldiers.

”Thank you, girl. Would you please tell me the reason why you had me come here by adopting this kind of means?” after giving a glance at Snow Murong who was sitting on the ground, Cloud Murong knew that this teenage girl hadn't seriously injured Snow Murong and that Snow Murong had just got her legs broken, which meant that she would have to lie in bed for half a month to a full month or so.

”I'm looking for someone,” Yun Wu glimpsed at Thousand Murong and said blandly.

”Looking for someone?” Cloud Murong frowned.

A guard had just reported to him that she demanded the Murong family to hand over someone. Had the Murong family by any chance taken someone from her?

Cloud Murong was not stupid. He instantly turned his head aside and moved his eyes to Thousand Murong, saying in a deep voice, ”Qian'er, go bring the two people here.”

Hearing this, those lookers-on suddenly understood.

It turned out that the reason why this teenage girl had killed that man, wounded so many people as well as burnt the mansion of the Murong family's offshoot was because the Murong Mansion had taken someone from her?

But Thousand Murong's face was rather cold and sullen, ”My lord, I don't have the person she wants. Everybody can see it – the whole mansion has been burnt down by her. All people have come out.”

Yun Wu slightly curved her lips, but the look in her eyes went cold, ”Is that so? It seems that I was being far too merciful to you by burning only those peripheral houses.”

”Fire dragon!” she yelled.

”Roar–”

A dragon roar came from those flaming houses and with that a dragon formed of fire soared up and coiled in mid-air, the air temperature rising drastically.

”Roar–” as if in response to Yun Wu's calling, the dragon let out another roar.

Those passers-by who had been looking on backed off repeatedly, horror on their faces.

Though they had seen it before, people still felt horrified when they caught eyes of it again.

Though formed of fire, the dragon possessed Qi as potent as that of a magic beast.

What kind of means had that teenage girl adopted? How had she managed to do this?

”Go burn that treasure house in the secret chamber in the west,” with a bland smile, Yun Wu ordered the fire dragon coiling in mid-air.

Not only Thousand Murong's face but also that of Sky Murong changed when they heard her remarks.

Instantly, Thousand Murong's face darkened, ”Little girl, don't go too far. You've already burnt my mansion and yet you want to burn my treasure house as well? You really think the Murong family is afraid of you?”

After that, his Tier IX potent Qi could be faintly seen about him.

Hearing his words, Yun Wu sneered, ”I don't know whether the Murong family is afraid of me or not, but some members of the Murong family robbed villagers of their hard-earned medicinal herbs and also took a child and an old woman hostage. I've already shown mercy on you by merely burning your mansion. Since you ungratefully turned down my nice gesture, you'll have to face the consequences you deserve.”

After saying this, Yun Wu winked at the fire dragon with her purple eyes and with that the fire dragon raised its head, let out a roar and was about to fly to the mansion.

All of a sudden.

A surge of potent water elemental power was hurled towards the fire dragon.

”Bang!” water element impacted on fire element with a muffled bang and the fire dragon was broken apart.

It was Cloud Murong who made his move.

He was rather concerned about the issue that Yun Wu had just said about some members of the Murong Mansion robbing villagers of medicinal herbs and hurting them.

But the Murong family was the leader of the Luo City, and he couldn't let anybody arbitrarily trample on the dignity of the Murong family. This little girl was acting so aggressively in front of so many people, so Cloud Murong definitely had to do something.

With a cold look, Cloud Murong said in a deep voice, ”Little girl, we can talk about this in a civilized way. There's no need to be so angry.”
