Phoenix Cry Firmament

Chapter 60: Miserable Mu Yixue

Nobody in the Qingyun School was unaware of this old man’s temper. He wasn’t someone to be reasoned with. If you didn’t provoke him, you’d naturally be safe. If you did, he couldn’t be reasoned with regardless of your identity. He was extremely short-sighted.

One time, some people arrested his medicine servant on his journey out to pick up some medicine. This old man directly went killing at the door. Not only did he make them extend a formal apology, he also thrashed the sh*t out of them and almost left them for dead.

Since then, no one dared to mess with even a medicine servant if he was wearing the Qingyun School badge.

“Don’t go too far.” Mu Qing gritted his teeth and snarled. “Feng City isn’t your world alone. Don’t forget that people from Qingyun School are still staying in Feng City. I happen to have some connections with Qingyun School, so if you don’t apologize to my daughter, I will definitely ask people from Qingyun School to settle scores for me.”

Qingyun School?

Mu Ruyue couldn’t help but curl the corners of her lips. Did this count as lifting a stone and smashing one’s feet? Within Qingyun School, it seemed that no one would risk making trouble with Wu Yu for Mu Qing.

“Hahaha!” Wu Yu raised his head and laughed wildly three times. “Good, very good, then I’ll wait for those people to come to your defense. It’s just some trash from Qingyun School. How could I, Wu Yu, be afraid of them?”

Compared to Wu Yu, Tian Yuan’s people were indeed trash, so there was no way he could put those people in his sights. Moreover, even if Tian Yuan had ten guts, he wouldn’t dare to trouble him.

In Qingyun School, Tian Yuan wasn’t even considered among the powerful.

“Then you wait,” Mu Qing grunted coldly and turned. “Xue’er, let’s go!”

He’d been polite to this old man, but he had dared to beat his daughter before his very eyes. How could he live up to this disgrace?

Perhaps he was indeed powerful. But no matter how strong he was, he couldn’t be strong enough to go against Qingyun School. If he could seek Master Tian Yuan’s help, wouldn’t that a way to sorely beat him?

Unbeknownst to Mu Qing, the person they had offended today was someone even Tian Yuan dared not to offend. If Mu Qing had known, given a hundred guts, he wouldn’t have risked shouting in Wu Yu’s face.

“Father, are we just going to forget this?” Mu Yixue said indignantly.

“Forget? How could we forget it? It’s just that I sensed the vital energy fluctuating in that old man’s body, but I couldn’t figure out his strength. So there’s only one possibility which is that he’s stronger than me. I can’t afford to mess with such an expert, but someone else can always deal with him. Don’t worry—we will avenge today’s injustice!”

However, Mu Qing also regretted bringing Mu Yixue along. They wouldn’t have thoroughly offended Mu Ruyue otherwise.

That night, the moonlight shone through the branches of a willow tree while thin soughing infiltrated the room.

A silvery shadow flitted in through the window and glanced gloomily at the girl, sleeping in the bed. The girl seemed to have sensed this sudden presence and opened her eyes, but at that same moment, a foul cloth was stuffed into her mouth then fists fell like a rainstorm…

The following day, the streets and alleys were abuzz with a piece of news.

“Hey, have you guys heard? Last night, the Third Miss of the Mu family, Mu Yixue, was battered violently. Tsk-tsk, I wonder who she offended. She actually got beaten up so badly that her whole face was swollen like a pig.”

“That Third Miss of the Mu family has always been arrogant and bullying. She’s arrogant and willful as hell and usually offends a lot of people. Maybe she messed with someone she couldn’t mess with this time around, thus suffered this ending, HAHAHA~”

“I guess we better keep a low profile from now on, lest we provoke someone we can’t afford to mess with like Third Miss Mu…”
