The two of them had been fighting for so long. They were all skilled moves. How could he suddenly be shameless and punch someone in the eye?
Xiahou Qing was stunned!
What a scoundrel!
Xiahou Qing immediately wanted to punch Wei Xu.
Unexpectedly, Ling Yun came out of the house. He said coldly, “Stop.”
Xiahou Qing paused.
Tsk!
Wei Xu punched him in the other eye.
Alright, a pair of panda eyes. They were symmetrical.
“You!”
Xiahou Qing was furious!
Wei Xu said righteously, “He asked you to stop, but he didn’t ask me to stop!”
Xiahou Qing was so angry that he vomited blood.
The extent to which he admired this person’s conversation in the City Lord Manor just now was equivalent to how angry he was now!
He was simply a hooligan!
Xiahou Qing was about to get serious. His palms sank and his diaphragm operated. His aura soared!
“Do you have to tear down my Azure Cloud Palace to be satisfied?”
Ling Yun’s indifferent words made Xiahou Qing stop in time.
Su Xiaoxiao ran out and held Wei Xu’s arm. “Dad! Dad, are you alright? I told you not to forcefully use a secret technique to increase your cultivation. The backlash is very big!”
Wei Xu was dumbfounded.
For the sake of his daughter-in-law, God Wei could only weakly act.
Seeing that he was finally exhausted, Xiahou Qing was relieved.
Otherwise, he would probably not be able to help but send someone to investigate this person.
“Dad, let me help you in to rest for a while!”
Wei Xu was still a little unwilling to show weakness in front of Xiahou Qing.
His desire to win was aroused by Xiahou Qing’s intent to snatch his son.
He also wanted his face.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at him eagerly.
Wei Xu’s heart softened. He sighed and let his daughter-in-law help him back to the house.
“That’s Yun Lin’s room!”
Xiahou Qing gritted his teeth.
Bang!
Slamming the door heavily was General Wei’s last stubbornness!
Xiahou Qing clenched his fists tightly, unable to hide his killing intent.
Ling Yun glanced at the surrounding disciples. “Don’t you have anything to do?”
The disciples were embarrassed.
“Let’s go, let’s go!”
“I’m going to cultivate!”
“It’s time for evening class!”
The disciples dispersed.
Only Yun Xue, Zhong Yan, and the others were still in the courtyard.
Yun Xue’s gaze wandered back and forth between Ling Yun and Xiahou Qing.
Because she had been expelled from the Hundred Flowers Palace long ago, she had never seen his true appearance.
But at this moment, she suddenly remembered Elder Qi’s words that she had ignored. “That’s not right. Young Palace Lord has the face of a member of the Yun family. How can he not be a member of the Yun family?”
Her answer at that time was that there were so many similar people in the world.
But now that she thought about it, she could tell that something was wrong.
Yun Lin was carried back by Yun Shuang when he was born. How could one tell who a newborn child looked like?
How did Yun Shuang bring back someone who looked similar?
Also, the City Lord’s reaction was not right…
As Yun Xue was thinking, the four elders came out.
Elder Yi, who was in the lead, leaned on his dragon-headed walking stick and said with a dignified gaze, “The City Lord suddenly came to visit today. We should have treated you well, but such a thing happened and we made a fool of ourselves. Why don’t we ask the City Lord to return first? I’ll personally visit with the Palace Lord another day to apologize to the City Lord.”
Xiahou Qing said to Elder Yi, “I still have something to say to your Young Palace Lord. I hope the elders can make things easy for me.”
Elder Yi said neither servile nor overbearing, “Young Palace Lord has been weak since he was young and needs to rest. City Lord, please forgive him.”
Xiahou Qing thought of how he had limped in the forest and asked Ling Yun softly, “How’s your foot injury?”
Ling Yun said calmly, “I’m not injured.”
Elder Yi said, “Ling Yin, send the guest off.”
Ling Yin bowed to the City Lord. “City Lord, please!”
Xiahou Qing frowned and glanced at Ling Yun.
Ling Yun looked frustrated.
Xiahou Qing sighed softly and said, “I’ll visit you later.” Then, he turned around and left the courtyard.
Yun Xue frowned. Was he leaving just like that?
Seeing that the situation was bad, the midwife pointed at Yun Xue and said awkwardly, “I, I, I… I was tricked by her… It’s none of my business… I’ll leave first!”
The midwife slipped away.
Yun Xue snorted disdainfully.
Why didn’t she say that she was deceived when she took the silver?
Zhong Yan clenched her skirt tightly and her body trembled slightly.
But what had to come still came.
Elder Yi said coldly, “Zhong Yan, when you were in the Hundred Flowers Palace, Matriarch, Palace Lord Yun Xi, and Palace Lord Yun Shuang treated you well. Have you ever thought that you’re worse than a beast?”
Zhong Yan’s eyes turned red as she knelt on the ground. “Elder Yi… I was wrong… I know I was wrong… But I was forced… My husband is in Eldest Miss’s hands… If I don’t do as Eldest Miss says… my husband will…”
