Chapter Fourteen: The Mysterious Powerhouse

  Yun Qing furrowed his brow in thought, wondering if he should step out and mediate at this time. After all, this was happening in their family's wine house, and with a moment's consideration, the Guardian General's Manor, Sword Saint Li Tianyi, wasn't someone to be trifled with.

  "It was me" Ling Wu Shuang's hands were clasped in front of her chest, she walked out slowly, her face calm and composed, her expression as usual.

  "Is it you?" Deputy General Ma stared at Ling Wusuo, as if he had seen a ghost, and couldn't believe that their young master, who was at the fifth stage of Xuan's real power, was actually injured by this little girl.

  "You actually admitted it, no use saying more" Another deputy general's face was full of anger, he drew his sword and raised it high, waving it at the people behind him, "Take them back"

  "Hmph, want to catch me? Then let's see if you have the skills for it." A soft snort, Ling Wushuang's beautiful face floated with a hint of coldness. With just these shrimp soldiers and crab generals, they think they can catch her?

  "Up"

  As soon as the word fell, the sword-bearing guards swarmed up.

  Ling Wu's eyes flashed with a fierce light, his left foot shifted forward lightly, while his right foot kicked back fiercely, gathering momentum for the impending attack. The two sides clashed, and as soon as they touched, the battle erupted.

  "Everyone stop it"

  At this time, a voice came out of thin air, neither fast nor slow, steady and powerful, as if substantial, forming an arc that spread throughout the wine building. Wherever it went, no one dared to move, but however hard everyone looked, they couldn't see where the sound was coming from.

  Hearing its voice but not seeing its form.

  Soft words, hidden sharpness, Ling Wu's eyes slightly lowered, sensing the fluctuations in the air, secretly thinking that this time it might be real trouble. Her intuition told her that this person's strength was above Ling Tian's.

  Ling Lao Ye Zi was a Ninth-Rank Peak Tian Xuan, which means that this person was at least a Saint with a title!

  Nan Gong Ye and Yun Qing Chen heard this voice, their bodies stiffened, both with a drastic change in expression, exchanging a glance, the two faces sank like water, it's over.

  It was unknown how much time had passed when a figure slowly emerged from the railing on the second floor.

  He wore a sky-blue long robe with no ornaments, his face was handsome, his eyes were dark and deep, calm and profound, his actual age could not be seen, but it could be vaguely discerned that he was about thirty years old.

  After taking a closer look at the person, the two deputy generals, who had been arrogant just now, simultaneously straightened their faces, sheathed their swords, took a few steps forward, joined their hands together, and spoke in a respectful tone, "Greetings, Lord Tianye"

  As he emerged, everyone involuntarily lowered their heads, except for Ling Wusuo, whose elegant eyebrows slightly raised, her back straight, and her figure still proudly stood like a pine tree, standing out in the crowd, standing in the center of the hall.

  A thread of appreciation flashed through the black eyes, and the man in green robes remained silent, secretly raising his momentum to another level. Ling Wusong's eyebrows furrowed, and his eyes suddenly turned cold. He only felt a thick pressure without any killing intent, so he didn't make a move.

  The man in the long black robe withdrew his oppressive aura, and his gaze, which had been fixed on some invisible point, finally shifted to the two deputy generals of the Li family. He spoke slowly: "As for who is right or wrong in this matter, I have seen it all. And yet, you people still want to gang up and bully a young girl? What kind of behavior is that? Don't humiliate yourselves further. Take your men and leave. This matter will be dropped here."

  Firm tone, no room for debate.

  Everyone heard this and fell silent, lowering their heads to stifle a laugh, but in their hearts they were thinking: who's bullying whom? Looking at the situation now, it's still unclear who's bullying who.

  Two pairs of eyes widened in surprise, "Heavenly Night Lord, this——"

  The dark-robed man's face was slightly angry, his sleeves fluttering as he waved his hand and said, "No need to say more, you go back and tell Li Tianyi that when I have time, I will personally visit him for a cup of tea."

  Many people secretly thought that in the Eastern Continent, and even in the four countries of the world, there were few who could call Sword Saint Li Tianyi by his name, not to mention those who would dare to claim they could go to his doorstep for a cup of tea, aside from Lord Tiye, it was likely that no one else could be found.

  Listening to the man's words, which were tinged with anger, the two deputy generals' faces twisted in disgust. How detestable! Lord Tiye was actually here, why didn't he intervene when that stinky girl took action just now? And yet, he appears precisely when they want to capture someone?

  However, the two deputy generals harbored resentment in their hearts, but they didn't dare speak out. How could they possibly hope that General Tianye would take action?

  The two of them had faces full of crap, silent and expressionless, holding it in for a long time before finally squeezing out this one word.

  The two of them gritted their teeth in secret, no wonder this stinky girl dared to hurt the young master, it turned out that she had the backing of Tianye Daren!

  But little did she know, Ling Wushuang was also very surprised in her heart. Who is this person? How could he suddenly speak up for her? She was certain that she didn't recognize this person. Just as she raised her head and wanted to ask, the green-robed man at the railing on the second floor had vanished without a trace.

  Unexpectedly unable to think it through, Ling Wushuang also stopped thinking about it, patted his hands, and turned around to leave.

  One thing less is better than one thing more, which saves the trouble of taking action.

  "You stinky girl, wait for me! General Ma tells you that the Protector General's Manor will not let this go so easily!" Deputy General Ma's tone was ferocious, his eyes as fierce as a poisonous snake, as if he wanted to swallow Ling Wushuang whole.

  Ling Wushuang curled his lip in disdain, gave a cold glance, and turned to leave while saying sarcastically: "As for the accounts you want to settle with me, don't mention it yet. First, let's calculate how much your young master owes for punching a hole in someone else's pillar."

  Cast down a word and drift away.

  "Haha——" The people around couldn't help but burst out laughing at this, the woman was truly one of a kind.

  Yun Qingchen and Nan Gongye on the second floor's VIP room had heavy expressions, upon hearing this sentence, they slightly contorted their faces, almost choking back internal injuries.

  "Besides, I almost forgot, your young master disturbed my tea time, so you should pay for this cup of tea, consider it as compensation." The person had already disappeared, but suddenly a sentence echoed in the air.

  This young master was beaten up by someone, and then he still had to pay for the tea, such a thing, I'm afraid only Ling Wushuang could think of it.

  "You this, you this stinky girl! Ah - I'm so angry I could die! You just wait for me!" The two deputy generals stomped their feet in anger, and after they finished, they suddenly realized that they didn't even know who the other person was.

  Upon hearing this, everyone in their hearts was also secretly laughing, this is indeed the highest state of shamelessness.

  This Li Minghui is really unlucky, why provoke such a jinx, not only was he beaten by her, but also had to pay the bill for her, and what's more, she even spoke with reason and evidence.

  "What are you looking at? Get out of here!" The two men, having nowhere to vent their anger, kicked away the people around them and shouted loudly. After releasing their pent-up anger, they finally helped Li Minghui leave.

  The crowd jeered at the departing figure with disdain, whispering to each other.

  "What's with all this bluster? If you've got the guts, go bully the adults in front of the Heavenly Emperor. All day long, you're waving the flag of the Guardian Temple and causing trouble."

  "Yeah, I really admire that little girl just now. No nonsense, one kick and he's flying, that's what I call dominance."

  "It's just, that kick was so cool, too awesome!" The people around him also cheered, "Haha, but you have to be as capable as that girl first, by the way, was that really Tian Ye Daren just now?"

  "That's natural, don't you even know Lord Tianye? Nor do you know what kind of relationship Lord Tianye has with that girl, yet you'd help her"

  ……

  The sound of discussion, like a tidal wave, one wave has not yet subsided, another wave rises, and suddenly the entire hall is filled with people's voices, and Mingxi Building presents an unprecedented lively scene, with a grandeur that has never been seen before.

  It was already late at night, two figures, one in front of the other, walked on the bustling street. The person behind looked at the man in black robes in front and couldn't help but ask: "Sir, why do you want to help that little girl?"

  He was really curious, Tian Ye was never one to interfere with others' business, yet today he actually stepped forward to help that little girl.

  "Green Mountain, don't underestimate that little girl, she's not someone to be trifled with." The man in the long black robe smiled softly, "This little lass, is quite interesting."

  Even if he didn't say a word, he believed that with her clever and cunning nature, she would definitely have a way to resolve it. Since he had taken action, he naturally had his own intentions. This little girl was a good seedling indeed.
