章節 8: Big Missy

編輯: Atlas Studios

The invalid Chu Liuyue from the Chu family had gone crazy!

Everyone in the whole of Imperial City was discussing this incident overnight.

"My cousin's third uncle works at the Chu family; he personally witnessed the people from Zhen Bao Pavilion respectfully delivering half a year's worth of herbs. Also, they clearly said that it was for Chu Liuyue! Don't you think this is creepy?"

"It can't be… Everyone knows that Chu Liuyue is naturally an invalid. How can she be related to Zhen Bao Pavilion? It should be worth quite a bit of money for Zhen Bao Pavilion to give half a year's worth of herbs, right? Can she even afford it?"

"That's why I said that she went crazy! Zhen Bao Pavilion never makes a losing deal. Where do you think she got her money from? Could it be… from the Crown Prince?"

"Hah! The Crown Prince has never mentioned Chu Liuyue in so many years. Why would he do such a thing? He definitely wasn't the one who gave Chu Liuyue the money. She even bought herbs… Does she really think she can transform herself from an invalid to a talent just with all those herbs?"

"Hahaha!"

Everyone in Imperial City was filled with sarcasm and was waiting to see Chu Liuyue's farce.

In the Crown Prince's mansion…

In the study, a man wearing a dark purple robe was reading the documents on the table. He looked like he was in his early twenties; his features were sharp, and he was very handsome. His every move and action further brought out his distinguished aura.

This person was none other than Country Yao Chen's respected Crown Prince—Rong Jin.

"Prince, there seems to be a problem with the Chu family…" The Crown Prince's personal bodyguard—Song Yuan—carefully spoke.

Rong Jin looked up. "What can happen to the Chu family? Could it be Minmin…" Rong Jin realized something upon seeing Song Yuan's strange expression and squinted his eyes. "Say it. What exactly happened?"

Song Yuan hurriedly reported the happenings between Chu Liuyue and Zhen Bao Pavilion to him in detail.

"I-I… have no idea where Big Chu Missy got all those silver taels from to afford so many herbs from Zhen Bao Pavilion."

All the herbs were contained in jade boxes and delivered over, so outsiders would not even know their contents. Even so, one could just randomly guess and know that the items inside would add up to an astronomical figure.

Rong Jin knitted his brows and said in a frustrated tone, "What the heck is she doing?"

If it was not for that marriage agreement, why would he even care about that invalid? All these years, Chu Liuyue had not only been the Chu family's humiliation, but she was also a stain in his life that he could not get rid of. He felt disgusted once he thought about it.

Uncertain, Song Yuan said, "Prince, although Chu Ning has lost favor in recent years, he was once pretty powerful. It's not impossible for him to have some savings. The point is, why would they buy so many herbs? Perhaps…"

"Hmph, she's just trying to solve her natural invalidity!"

There was still a month left until the agreed engagement period on that marriage agreement. Was she still hallucinating and thinking of climbing her way up the ladder?

"Ridiculous! In the entire Country Yao Chen, nobody could solve the problem of a lacking Yuan meridian. If they really had a solution, she would not have ended up in this state. She's not worth mentioning. This is just a farce. The palace will break off the marriage agreement with her sooner or later. In the meantime, the more important thing is… is Rong Xiu coming back?"

Once Rong Xiu was mentioned, Song Yuan's expression changed, and he said softly, "Yes. They'll be reaching the Imperial City today. According to what I found out, Seventh Prince only brought two entourages with him, and they're coming back in simplicity."

Rong Jin chuckled. "At least he knows his place."

As Rong Xiu was naturally weak, he was different from the other princes. He was often taken to Mingyue Tianshan, which was miles away, to nurse himself back to health. He had only come back twice in so many years.

It had already been three years since he had come back last time.

Most of the people did not even take the Seventh Prince seriously; some didn't even remember his existence, but not Rong Jin, the Crown Prince. He was very alert about Rong Xiu's current return and had even sent people to follow him in secret.

"Tell the subordinates to be more alert. If there's anything amiss, immediately report it to me!"

"Will do!" Even though Song Yuan did not know why the Crown Prince cared so much about the Seventh Prince, who was weak and powerless, he still immediately answered him. "Oh. Prince, a level five fiend has just arrived at the hunting ground. When would you like to go and take a look?"

After thinking for a while, a dim spark flashed across Rong Jin's eyes. "It'll be my birthday very soon. This year, I'll hold my birthday feast at the hunting ground."

"Will do!"

In the Chu family…

Half a year's worth of valuable herbs was ostentatiously delivered to Chu Liuyue and her father's yard.

Chu Ning went out and had not returned yet, so Chu Liuyue brought the herbs bit by bit into the house alone.

Very quickly, she discovered that the originally quiet and isolated yard had quite a few pairs of spying eyes.

Chu Liuyue was very calm; she acted as if she did not know anything. Sometimes she would even open a jade box and check the herbs' quality.

Zhen Bao Pavilion was indeed very meticulous toward her and had sent herbs of good quality.

This was very helpful for her to get her Yuan meridian back.

At this time, hurried footsteps sounds could be heard from outside the yard as a man loudly yelled, "Hurry! Capture Chu Liuyue!"

Chu Liuyue sneered in her heart. They finally came. She looked up and saw that a bunch of people had already kicked open the door and rushed in.

The man leading the pack looked ferocious, and there were more than ten strong and muscular men behind him. They looked like they were going to start a fight.

Chu Liuyue squinted her eyes and finally recognized the man—Chu Liansheng.

This person was Chu Xianmin's trusted assistant. He was one of the culprits who had previously planned to kill the original Chu Liuyue.

What a coincidence. I was just about to look for him, but he came and offered himself first instead.

In no time, two men rushed toward Chu Liuyue.

Chu Liuyue's gaze was as sharp as a knife as she yelled loudly, "How dare you! Who gave you the right to trespass into my place?" Her questioning tone was strong and powerful, which immediately stunned everyone at the scene, causing them to stop their movements subconsciously.

Chu Liansheng was also taken aback, but he immediately reacted over and said sarcastically, "Hah, Chu Liuyue, why do you think we're here? Don't you know? How can you afford such valuable herbs from Zhen Bao Pavilion? Your money must have come from doing illicit deeds! I advise you to be more honest. Obediently hand your things over and leave with us. If not, don't blame me for not being polite."

Upon hearing that, Chu Liuyue surveyed her surroundings and put down the items in her hands. "Oh? Then what if I refuse?"

Chu Liansheng was shocked and sneered afterward. "What right do you have to say no?" He sized Chu Liuyue up, his eyes filled with contempt. "It's already very humiliating for an invalid to freeload off the Chu family for so many years. Now, you've used some disgraceful methods to buy all these items! Chu Liuyue, even if you don't want your reputation, the Chu family still wants ours!"

Chu Liuyue looked at him calmly and walked forward. It seemed like she was going to give up without a fight.

Chu Liansheng got increasingly cocky and glanced at the people around him. "Hurry up and confiscate the items! All of the items here are important evidence; none of them…"

Piak!

The sound of a loud smack cut across the air.

The yard fell into deep silence.

Chu Liuyue actually hit Chu Liansheng?!

Everyone knew that he was Third Missy—Chu Xianmin's trusted assistant. Anyone who saw him would normally give him some face. However, Chu Liuyue had completely lost her mind and even dared to hit him.

"You! How dare you hit me?" Chu Liansheng was shocked beyond words. The fiery pain on his face ignited his rage. "You must be tired of living!" As he was talking, he subconsciously raised his hand and swung it toward Chu Liuyue.

However, his hand could not land; his wrist was caught by Chu Liuyue instead. Then, she retaliated and gave him a second fierce slap.

Piak!

This time, she made Chu Liansheng's entire mouth bloody.


章節 9: Explanation

編輯: Atlas Studios

The air seemed to stand still.

All those people inside the yard, who were prepared to see Chu Liuyue's farce, were all stunned.

Chu Liuyue had eaten the guts of a leopard! How dare she slap Chu Liansheng twice?

Chu Liansheng was the first one to react in this icy and embarrassing atmosphere. The fiery pain on his face and the bloody taste on his lips were all reminding him of what had just happened. "You b*tch! How dare you hit me?"

Chu Liansheng's eyes widened in extreme anger, and he directly unsheathed the saber on his waist before ring towards Chu Liuyue ferociously.

The sharp saber was just about to cut Chu Liuyue into two. When the saber landed, even if Chu Liuyue did not die, she would be crippled.

However, Chu Liuyue did not move at all, but nodded and stared straight into Chu Liansheng's eyes. She enunciated her every word clearly, "Chu Liansheng, do you want to kill the Chu family's eldest daughter in front of everyone?"

That one sentence was as if a lightning bolt zapped Chu Liansheng's ears. The words 'Chu family's eldest daughter' was like a curse that made him stop in his tracks.

The tip of the blade was only inches away from Chu Liuyue.

He subconsciously looked toward Chu Liuyue and met her black and silent eyes.

At this moment, he actually felt a strong suppression that made people's hearts weaken. Chu Liuyue's gaze was like a sharp blade that cut across his body inch by inch.

Shua!

Chu Liansheng immediately cleared his head.

Oh, right! Even though the skinny young girl in front of him was wearing torn and tattered clothes, she… was indeed the legitimate eldest daughter of the Chu family while he was just a servant that used Chu Xianmin's authority.

"The first slap was because you didn't know your place." Chu Liuyue stepped forward.

Chu Liansheng actually backed away subconsciously.

"The second slap was because you committed insubordination." Chu Liuyue inched closer toward Chu Liansheng once again.

Chu Liansheng's hand that was holding the knife trembled slightly.

"Even though I was born an invalid, the blood in my body is still the blood of the Chu family's first descendant. All these years, I've kept my place and have not caused trouble at all. What about you? All of you started to bully me and humiliate me countless times. But have any of you ever thought of this? What rights do you have?"

Chu Liuyue's repeated questioning finally made Chu Liansheng erupt as he rebutted, "Chu Liuyue! You're just a good-for-nothing from head to toe! You're the humiliation of the entire Chu family! How shameless must you be to say all of this? In this world, only the strong are respected. You deserve everything happening today!" Even though his words were harsh, Chu Liansheng's voice was cracking slightly.

He knew that nobody would care about it if he bullied Chu Liuyue privately, but it would be terrible if he had dragged the entire Chu family in.

He was always careful in doing things. However, the Song Lian Trio's unknown fate made him anxious. Additionally, Chu Liuyue's actions that came one after another made him bring people over impulsively.

He had never expected that the originally cowardly Chu Liuyue actually dared to retaliate.

Upon hearing his words, Chu Liuyue's lips suddenly curved up, and she smiled. "Yes, I might be an invalid, but you seemed to have forgotten who my grandfather and my fiancé are."

Chu Liansheng immediately broke out into a cold sweat. Chu Liuyue's grandfather was naturally the master of the Chu family, and her fiancé was the Crown Prince.

Even though everyone thought that Chu Liuyue had no chance of marrying the Crown Prince, the marriage agreement still existed after all. They could talk about these things in private, but absolutely nobody dared to say it to their faces.

"Did you call me a b*tch just now?" Chu Liuyue smiled even more warmly. "Then, are you scolding my grandfather and the Crown Prince?"

Kuang!

Chu Liansheng's saber fell to the ground. His legs turned into jelly; his face was pale, and he had almost collapsed onto the floor.

Chu Liuyue, of course, did not care about her so-called grandfather or fiancé. If they had the slightest bit of sympathy or care for her, the original Chu Liuyue would not have ended up in this state. However, it was still okay to make use of them at this stage.

"I-I didn't…" stammered Chu Liansheng. If word of this incident got out, no matter if it was the Crown Prince or the Chu family, he wouldn't be let off, even if it was just to maintain their reputation.

Chu Liuyue said calmly, "Now, are you going to cut off your right arm and pay for your sins, or… do you want me to get my grandfather and the Crown Prince to uphold justice for me?"

Chu Liansheng was shocked. Chu Liuyue actually wanted him to pay such a painful price!

Cutting off his right arm on his own… That would mean that his entire cultivating career would be ruined!

He clenched his teeth and secretly glanced at the people around him. Now, he needed to stall for time and wait for Third Missy to appear.

"Since you can't do it yourself, then, I'll do it for you!" Chu Liuyue did not even give him time to react as she moved at lightning speed to pick up the saber from the floor and chop down mercilessly.

Chu Liansheng was a stage three warrior; logically speaking, he could have avoided Chu Liuyue's strike. However, for some reason, when the brandished saber cut through the air, he didn't even see Chu Liuyue's actions clearly!

Tch!

Chu Liansheng's right arm was cut off there and then.

Blood spurted everywhere.

"Ah!" Chu Liansheng let out painful screams when the excruciating pain hit him.

Everyone's hearts trembled as they stole glances at Chu Liuyue.

That skinny young girl stood there with her back straight as she held the saber calmly.

It was as if she had just cut down a tree branch and not someone's right arm.

This made them even more afraid. Chu Liuyue had really changed into someone else! Even the people who were originally surrounding Chu Liuyue had canceled their plans to bully her after seeing the scene play out.

What a joke! She had just made use of the Chu family master and the Crown Prince. Who would dare to go against her?

Someone hesitated and wondered if he should help Chu Liansheng up, but he did not dare to step forward.

What if Chu Liuyue went crazy and cut them too?

At this point, everyone was still in utter shock; nobody thought about how an invalid like Chu Liuyue could defeat Chu Liansheng.

Chu Liuyue casually threw the saber onto the floor, and it rolled beside Chu Liansheng's cut arm. The fresh blood was still dripping from it; it was very bloody and scary.

"Get lost!" As she said that, she turned around and walked towards the pile of herbs in her yard.

Today's incident was just a warning to the rest of them. She must make all of these people suffer 100 times more and pay for all the sufferings and grievances the original Chu Liuyue had gone through.

What could a 200,000 silver tael debt amount to?

What could a broken arm amount to?

Compared to Chu Liuyue's life, these were nothing.

In and outside of the yard, the crowd looked at each other dazedly.

Originally, they wanted to watch Chu Liuyue's farce play out, but they did not expect…

At this time, familiar footsteps sounded from the outside.

A woman shrieked loudly in shock. "Liansheng! What happened to you?"

The crowd turned around; their faces were filled with excitement once more.

The person who came was none other Than Chu Liansheng's master—Third Missy Chu Xianmin.

Chu Xianmin had lost out previously; she was very indignant every time she thought about it, so she did not want to let Chu Liuyue live peacefully and sent Chu Liansheng over.

On the one hand, she wanted to find out what kind of herbs Chu Liuyue bought, and on the other, she wanted to take the chance to teach Chu Liuyue a lesson. However, she did not expect for her subordinates to pass on words that a problem had cropped up halfway through the plan.

She hurriedly rushed over and saw Chu Liansheng lying on the floor and groaning in pain, while his right arm had been cut.

Chu Liansheng moaned non-stop as he crawled over and bawled loudly. "Third Missy! Third Missy, you must uphold justice for me! That b*t- Big Missy has cut off my right arm!"

Chu Xianmin's blood boiled instantly. Everyone knew that Chu Liansheng was her servant. Chu Liuyue's actions were akin to slapping her in the face.

She glared at Chu Liuyue and tried her best to suppress the anger in her heart. "Sister, may I know what is going on? Shouldn't you give me an explanation?"
