[GL]Whose Wife Is Always Acting Pitiful? Oh, It Turns Out It’s Mine 29

Chapter 29: Duanhun Takes Action

Seeing that the situation had escalated to the level of a group fight, the other Guardian Stars wanted to intervene, but Xue Duanhun still wouldn’t let them step forward.

On the surface, Xue Duanhun was just the head accountant of the Xue Star Tower, but in reality, she was the second-in-command. Even the reclusive expert Guardian Stars had to look at her for cues on whether to intervene. If she allowed it, they would go up; if not, they would watch coldly from the sidelines, because Xue Duanhun could always handle things well.

Mu Ruo stood at the door, quietly watching as the sword attacks of the Blue Wind Mountain Sect disciples were scattered by the drunken man. The wooden chopsticks were his weapon. While avoiding the long sword, he could still straighten his arm and whip the handsome young man’s face several times with a crackling sound!

None of the guests watching the opera in the main hall were listening to the opera anymore. They were all watching this fighting scene and laughing loudly.

“So these brats are disciples of the Blue Wind Mountain Sect in the Guanzhong region!”

“They don’t look like they have much kung fu. They just learned a little casually and came down the mountain to run wild.”

“What kind of kung fu does that man use? He can fight so well even with wooden chopsticks!”

Xue Wuluo snatched a sword from a disciple and didn’t fall into a disadvantage even fighting one against six. The guests watched with relish, turning their heads to look at the drunken man’s side from time to time, and then at Xue Wuluo’s side. The noise alerted the guests in the private rooms upstairs, who opened their doors one after another to watch.

Mu Ruo stared at the handsome young man’s face turning paler and paler. Perhaps realizing he couldn’t win, he suddenly sheathed his sword and shouted, “May I ask your esteemed name?!”

The drunken man laughed loudly. “Brat, practice more! Your sword technique is too lousy, too lousy!” He put his hands on his hips and was about to walk out, saying to Mu Ruo at the door, “Maiden Mu Ruo, this brother is going to take a bath in the river. I’ll treat you to a drink next time!”

With that, he did several somersaults in a row, flipping higher and higher. When he flipped onto the street, he soared into the air and disappeared instantly. His heroic laughter echoed in the air, slowly fading away.

“Good kung fu,” Mu Ruo muttered to herself. Immediately hearing the crisp sound of swords clashing in the main hall, she hurriedly ran inside. “Wuluo, stop fighting!”

When practicing martial arts in the Xue family, Xue Wuluo was also found to have very high aptitude. Her attainments in sword technique were deeper than other Guardian Stars. Dealing with these few Blue Wind Mountain Sect disciples, she actually hadn’t let them get close to her all this time.

The guests continued to watch the show. Mu Ruo scanned the surroundings and found that the Guardian Stars were all watching from the sidelines. She thought to herself, Could it be that Xue Duanhun thinks Wuluo can fight one against seven?

Seeing the drunken man leave, the handsome young man immediately joined his junior brothers. Mu Ruo thought he would draw his long sword again, but he didn’t. He actually rushed straight towards Xue Wuluo’s back.

The moment he approached Xue Wuluo, his right hand suddenly formed a claw with three fingers, incredibly fast, grabbing towards the back of Xue Wuluo’s neck!

Xue Wuluo sensed the gloomy and sharp finger strength behind her. She parried the long swords of two disciples in time and swung back with a backhand, using the sword body to protect the back of her neck—

Hearing a “ding” sound, the finger strength vibrated along the sword body to the tiger’s mouth (web between thumb and forefinger). Xue Wuluo felt a chill in her heart. Just as she was about to turn sideways and retreat, the handsome young man’s next claw had already grabbed her right shoulder!

In an instant, Xue Wuluo dropped the long sword. A piercing pain came from her right shoulder. Looking down, three deep bloody holes had appeared on her right shoulder!

The handsome young man was about to claw again, but Mu Ruo suddenly rushed over, using her body to block in front of Xue Wuluo. He was surprised for a moment. Just as he was about to lower his hand, another even more threatening internal force rushed straight towards his face!

He subconsciously used his claw technique to intercept, but collided with the surging vibration of internal force. The palm pushing towards him hid a dark force. The moment they made contact, it transmitted through his finger bones to his arm, as if trying to shatter the Three Yang Meridians of his hand alive.

“Second Senior Brother!!!”

The handsome young man instantly felt fear, opening his mouth wide as he looked at the woman with a grim face in front of him. The guests in the main hall also held their breath.

Just when they and the handsome young man thought he was going to be crippled, Xue Duanhun withdrew her palm and said faintly, “With such meager power, you dare to come out and flamboyantly wear sect attire?”

The other disciples went to help the handsome young man. None of them realized what that palm strike just now meant, but he knew. Terrified to the extreme, his knees bent, and he knelt down with a thud, immediately kowtowing. “Disciple knows his mistake! May I ask which expert of the Blue Wind Mountain Sect you are?”

Xue Duanhun finally sighed, lowered her eyes, and helped him up. “Get up. I am no longer a member of the Blue Wind Mountain Sect. What is your name, and who is your master?”

“Disciple… Disciple is Yu Qingdong, studying under Sect Leader Qi Qing!” Yu Qingdong instantly looked excited. “You are… You are… Senior Martial Aunt Xue, right?”

The other disciples were confused. Xue Duanhun was slightly stunned, re-examining Yu Qingdong, and sighed, “So you are already this big, Dong’er.”

Yu Qingdong was filled with regret and shame for his actions just now. He knelt down again and kowtowed three times loudly. The junior brothers behind him also knelt down to salute, calling out “Senior Martial Aunt” in unison.

Xue Duanhun said, “Never mind. The fault for today’s disturbance does not lie with you. However, you injured a Guardian Star of the Xue Star Tower, so you should apologize to her.”

Yu Qingdong nodded hurriedly. Turning around, he looked at Xue Wuluo, who was clutching her right shoulder. “Guardian Star Maiden, Yu did something wrong. Please be magnanimous—”

Xue Wuluo frowned and said nothing. She looked at Mu Ruo, but Mu Ruo was staring blankly at Xue Duanhun. Her face was extremely pale, her pitch-black eyes trembling uncontrollably, and even her lips were shaking a little.

Xue Wuluo was puzzled and worried. Listening to Yu Qingdong apologizing repeatedly, she suddenly said gruffly, “Go away!”

Yu Qingdong looked at Xue Duanhun pleadingly. The junior brothers behind him were listless under Xue Duanhun’s cold gaze. Just as she was about to open her mouth to make Yu Qingdong compensate something, the sound of approaching horse hooves and a furious shout rang out outside the vermilion main gate.

“—Who dares to cause trouble in my Xue Star Tower??!”

Knowing the Young Mistress had arrived, Xue Wuluo put her arm around Mu Ruo’s waist and led her away from the disciples of the Blue Wind Mountain Sect, walking towards the door. Mu Ruo seemed to have lost her soul, letting her lead her forward.

When Xue Mu jumped off the horse, Mu Ruo’s vacant eyes regained a bit of clarity. Seeing the injury on Xue Wuluo’s shoulder, Xue Mu raised her eyebrows high, furious!

“A-Ruo, are you alright?” She turned Mu Ruo’s body around and examined her carefully. Seeing her pale face and trembling body, she thought she must be terrified, so she hurriedly asked Xue Xue to send her to the private room on the third floor, planning to comfort her later.

“Who crashed the place?” She stepped inside the door. Although Xue Wuluo followed her, her gaze closely followed Mu Ruo going upstairs.

“Young Mistress Xue,” Xue Duanhun said. “These disciples of the Blue Wind Mountain Sect had a conflict with a guest. The guest escaped. Xue Wuluo was accidentally injured by the disciples of the Blue Wind Mountain Sect while trying to mediate. How do you want to handle it?”
