Something big has happened to Aunt Ru?
Han Yunxi dropped her hand, but Long Fei Ye's eyes were still shut as if he hadn't woken up at all.
Han Yunxi smiled silently, knowing that he didn't take the matter to heart. She also knew that he'd been pretending to be asleep this entire time.
She was too lazy to pay Chu Xifeng any attention as he shouted outside. She nestled in Long Feiye's arms and looked up at him, only to see that his smooth chin had grown a thin stubble overnight. It was a very manly sight. From her angle, he looked especially sexy.
The stubble was prickly, but it didn't hurt. She stroked it lightly and played with it with amusement. At first, he didn't react, but his Adam's apple gradually moved. It was obvious that he was enduring.
"It tickles!" Han Yunxi burst into laughter.
What was Long Fei Ye supposed to say? This woman's getting bolder and bolder. She's not as shy and timid as before, but she's still too inexperienced!
She has no idea that she's playing with fire!
He didn't know when it started, but he'd become extremely sensitive to her every move.
It's asking for my life, but I can't stop myself …
Chu Xifeng was still shouting outside the door. "Your Highness, esteemed wangfei, are you inside? Something's happened to Aunt Ru! Something big has happened! "
"Your Highness, if you're inside, answer this subordinate!"
Chu Xifeng had clearly seen His Highness return to the rooms with his own eyes. He'd been standing guard outside the door the entire time. His Highness and esteemed wangfei had to be inside, so why didn't they respond when he shouted so loudly?
Previously, when they were in the house, all he had to do was shout outside the door and there would be a response.
Chu Xifeng had no idea how many times he and Zhao mama had ruined their master's plans, much less that their masters were no longer the same as before. They were no longer affected by their actions.
"Did something happen?" Chu Xifeng felt that something was amiss the more he thought about it. He almost broke through the door.
Fortunately, he recalled the kick he'd received at Jiangnan's Plum Blossom Sea. Thus, he silently retreated. He told himself that nothing would happen with His Highness Duke of Qin here.
Then he simply stood guard while secretly wondering what the two masters were doing shut up in the middle of the day. What couldn't be paused?
Chu Xifeng chuckled until his lips curled into an ambiguous grin. However, he quickly regained his senses.
He hadn't even reported that something had happened to Aunt Ru!
"Aunt Ru crippled Duanmu Yao! Your highness, esteemed wangfei, did you hear that? "
"Master, Aunt Ru crippled Duanmu Yao! Crippled! "
As soon as these words came out, Long Fei Ye, who was immersed in the land of tenderness, instantly opened his eyes. Han Yunxi was also extremely shocked. "How could this be?"
Han Yunxi should be celebrating the fact that Duanmu Yao was crippled, but at this moment, she said rationally, "Oh no!"
Tang Li was going to apologize. Did Aunt Ru think that the trouble was not big enough? He actually crippled someone? Tang Zijin's announcement was wasted.
"What happened?" Long Fei Ye asked.
"This subordinate isn't sure either. I just received news from a flying pigeon that Tang Li and the rest are on their way back," Chu Xifeng reported honestly.
Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye quickly washed up and tidied themselves up. As soon as they opened the door, Han Yunxi asked, "What do you mean 'crippled'?"
Chu Xifeng still shook his head. "The letter only said that she crippled someone."
"Go ask immediately!" Long Fei Ye ordered unhappily.
After Chu Xifeng left, Han Yunxi saw Long Fei Ye's stern expression and pretended to be jealous. "So nervous?"
Long Fei Ye immediately grew serious. "Tang Li will be very troublesome!"
"And?" Han Yunxi asked sourly.
This fellow loved to get jealous, but he didn't seem to like other people getting jealous.
She wasn't childish enough to get jealous over something like this. But when it came to Duanmu Yao, she was childish and willful. She liked to see this Icy, taciturn man rush to clarify things and explain himself.
Aye, Long Fei Ye, ah, Long Fei Ye. Why didn't I get to know you before Duanmu Yao did? If I knew you before, I'd never let you have a junior sister like her!
"Duanmu Yao probably came prepared," Long Fei Ye was still very serious.
Now Han Yunxi realized the gravity of the situation. "You're saying … she hurt herself on purpose?"
Long Fei Ye nodded. Cang Qiuzi had probably pushed Duanmu Yao forward to use her to punish Tang Li. But Duanmu Yao was no fool. Instead of whipping Tang Li and offending Cloud Realm Trade Consortium, she'd rather put on a show and let the Tang Clan injure her instead.
That way, the Tang Clan would be the subject of ridicule again, while Cang Qiuzi would have even more reason to make things difficult for them. Duanmu Yao could also stay out of the matter without taking any responsibility.
"How sinister."
Han Yunxi grew doubtful. "Aunt Ru used assassination weapons? Did she cripple her hands or legs? "
What kind of weapons could cripple someone?
Assassination weapons were either used for poisoning or to hit vital points. Han Yunxi couldn't imagine how they could be used to cripple someone.
Long Fei Ye didn't care how Duanmu Yao was crippled, but said thoughtfully, "Aunt Ru wouldn't be so rash."
When facing Han Yunxi, Aunt Ru's unreasonable tantrums were all an act. Long Fei Ye knew full well how shrewd she was.
Even if Duanmu Yao had come prepared, Aunt Ru wouldn't fall for a trap.
While they were talking, Chu Xifeng arrived with definite news. "Your Highness, Duanmu Yao's dantian has been injured. Aunt Ru's needles struck her dantian acupoint … the situation is very serious. We'll have to wait for the clan head and the rest to know the details. They're already on their way. "
Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi exchanged glances.
Han Yunxi didn't understand martial arts, but she knew that the dantian was where qi gathered. It was directly related to internal energy cultivation. Without internal energy, martial arts were just flowery and impractical.
She didn't know how serious her injuries were, but if they were serious, then Duanmu Yao really was … crippled!
She'd already lost her status as Western Zhou's princess. Once her martial arts were crippled, how was she supposed to survive on Celestial Mountain?
Long Fei Ye's thoughts were completely different from Han Yunxi's. He didn't care about Duanmu Yao's future prospects at all, but worried about his master.
Even if Duanmu Yao lost her martial arts, she could still speak in front of his master.
Cang Qiuzi was only willing to hook up with Duanmu Yao because of her place in his master's heart. If Duanmu Yao's injuries were serious, his master would probably get involved.
He hadn't even set foot on Celestial Mountain yet, but the mountain was already in trouble!
If not for the fact that the Tang Clan was implicated in this matter, Long Fei Ye would have suspected that Aunt Ru had done it on purpose! After all, Duanmu Yao wouldn't risk injuring her dantian over such a simple matter.
As for the details, they had to wait for Tang Zijin and the rest to come back.
Tang Zijin and the rest returned that very night.
After some questioning, Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye finally found out what had happened. Tang Li had brought a bramble to ask for punishment, while Duanmu Yao had tried to make things difficult for him.
Duanmu Yao's mouth was fierce, and she cursed Tang Li viciously. Lady Tang couldn't take it anymore and made the first move, resulting in a fight between the two sides.
Aunt Ru seemed to have already been cursed by Tang Zijin on the way here, because her expression was ugly. She didn't say a word.
Han Yunxi wasn't stupid enough to hit the muzzle of a gun, but Long Fei Ye was more direct. "Of all the places you could hurt her, you had to hurt her dantian? My master took her in as a disciple because she could guard her dantian and unblock her eight meridians at such a young age. "
Of course, Kenzō doted on Duanmu Yao for other reasons, but the girl's innate talents were indispensable.
"Her sword was about to stab me in the face. If I didn't do anything, was I supposed to wait for death?" Aunt Ru replied impatiently.
Everyone fell silent at her words. Long Fei Ye didn't retort either.
After a while, Aunt Ru seemed to have calmed down. She looked between Tang Zijin and Tang Li before saying, "I'll shoulder the consequences of my own actions. If Elder Kenzō blames me, I'll take the blame myself."
Like Cang Qiuzi, Elder Kenzō didn't know of the relationship between the Tang Clan and Long Fei Ye. No matter what, Long Fei Ye had no way of explaining things.
"You'll take the blame yourself? How are you going to do that? Why don't you just kill Duanmu Yao and pay a life for a life? You hurt her dantian, so how are you going to return it to her? "Tang Zijin was about to die from anger.
As he spoke, he didn't forget to shoot Tang Li a Cold look. He wished he could kill this unfilial son with his eyes and end all troubles once and for all. If he had been obedient back then, he might have been able to hold a grandson now instead of having to deal with this huge pile of trouble.
Neither Celestial Mountain nor Cloud Realm Trade Consortium was easy to deal with.
Aunt Ru was rendered speechless by Tang Zijin's outburst.
"Enough! It's already happened, so what's the use of yelling at Yiru? As I see it, that cheap girl deserved it. Who told her to curse Tang Li like that? She's so young with such a venomous mouth. Isn't she afraid of retribution? "
It was rare for Lady Tang to stand on the same side as Aunt Ru. She turned to Long Fei Ye and said, "Feiye, it's a good thing you didn't agree to the marriage alliance back then. Otherwise, your mother would be so angry she'd come back to life!"
"Enough! What do you know? You have long hair and short eyes! "
Tang Zijin was about to lose his mind. He didn't want to pay attention to any of the women in the room anymore. He looked seriously at Long Fei Ye and asked, "Feiye, what do you think we should do about this?"
"How are her injuries? What did she say? "Long Fei Ye asked.
"I'm not sure. Aunt Ru used a meteor dart. Duanmu Yao spat up multiple mouthfuls of blood on the spot. She said … she said this wasn't over yet. Old Man wanted to explain, but that damned girl left too quickly. She probably went to treat her injuries, "Tang Zijin replied.
"Meteor dart …" Long Fei Ye muttered to himself, before asking, "How far away was it?"
Meteor dart was extremely fast, so its power was immense as well. If it was used at close range, the consequences would be unthinkable.
Tang Zijin understood meteor dart even better than Long Fei Ye. The scene had been so chaotic and sudden that he didn't have time to see clearly before Duanmu Yao left.
"About ten paces," Aunt Ru added in a low voice.
Long Fei Ye and Tang Zijin exchanged glances. Ten paces. Duanmu Yao would have been seriously injured at that distance.
Long Fei Ye fell silent for a while before saying, "Prepare to face Celestial Mountain head-on. And also, report this to Cloud Realm Trade Consortium immediately. Just say that Duanmu Yao spoke rudely and insulted Ning Jing, so the Tang Clan accidentally injured her. "
They could only win over Cloud Realm Trade Consortium's support first. As for how Duanmu Yao would react, they could only wait and see.
Aunt Ru didn't seem to have done it on purpose, nor was it likely that Duanmu Yao would take such a huge risk against the Tang Clan. Han Yunxi only stared at Aunt Ru. Could this really have been an accident?
Was it really an accident?
