34 Shock of their Lives (1/2)
Xia Bingyue and her father dashed towards the source of the commotion that rocked their residence. Despite several hundreds of meters away from the source. Xia Guanyu's superior senses and the defensive formations that were triggered amidst the battle told him that something was going on.
Both were clad with the best armors and weapons that they had for they knew that those that can surpass the restrictions at the base of the mountain and arrive at the center possessed enough cultivation base to threaten even the Grand Elder of the Xia Clan.
With their cultivation base in full rotation. Both arrived at the source of the commotion in under a minute, but the scene that revealed itself before their eyes was something that they never expected even in their wildest imaginations.
”Wha...”
”P-P-Patriarch...?”
The two stood frozen as they stared at the image of their dignified and composed Patriarch, hanging in mid-air while being tied up tight like a turtle. Both of her legs scrunched behind her like a shrimp and the tightness of the rope emphasized her curves as well as her bountiful treasures.
Fortunately, ever since the death of his wife. Xia Guanyu had long since sealed his emotions. If not, he wasn't sure if he could survive such a scene without feeling any lust.
Xia Bingyue, on the other hand, staggered backward. Her expression pale and her breathing ragged. The scene was too shocking for her that she didn't even notice Jiang Tian's lying on the ground before she dashed towards the opposite direction.
The ”Patriarch” of the Xia Clan looked incomparably embarrassed. Her cheeks were flushed yet she was helpless since Jiang Tian sealed her acupoints. Struggling, she lifted her head and said, ”G-G-Guanyu... Help me here...”
It was at that moment that Xia Guanyu recovered from his trance. Staring at the ”Patriarch” his throat went dry and words never came out. Flicking his wrist, wind formed a blade and slashed the ropes apart, releasing the ”Patriarch” towards the ground.
”J-J-Jiang Tian? What are you doing here?” Xia Guanyu finally noticed Jiang Tian's existence and his eyes widened in shock when he realized that the latter was seriously injured. Probing Jiang Tian's body, Xia Guanyu immediately stuffed his mouth with numerous healing pills as a milky-white hue burst and covered Jiang Tian's figure.
”Jiang Tian? So you know who that lecherous brat is? Why didn't he visit you using the proper channels and instead went sneakily up the mountain...”
The so-called ”Patriarch” of the Xia Clan rolled her eyes and arranged her robes. Pressing her finger on some areas on her body, she released her sealed acupoints and her figure underwent a change.
When she was tied up earlier. The ”Patriarch” looked meek and helpless but when she recovered her cultivation base, a sharpness and coldness that stemmed from her soul and experiences in life manifested, covering her in a facade of dignity that befitted her position as the leader of the Xia Clan.
”He tried going up to my residence? Why would he do that? Does he not know that this place is a forbidden zone filled with dangers that could kill him in an instant?!” Xia Guanyu became angry at Jiang Tian's foolish actions. His anger was logical since it was the truth.
