Chapter 487: Chapter 489 Threat (Four)
Mu Ruyue’s gaze grew icy as she looked towards the pallid face of Third Young Master Xiao, “I already said that anyone who dares to touch my elder brother will only meet one fate!”
And that is—death!
The heart of Third Young Master Xiao trembled. If even Yao Jing and his men couldn’t escape disaster, how could he possibly expect these people to spare him?
It’s over…
It’s completely over now.
Why did he have to hand over the man of the Yao Family’s legitimate daughter to others?
The elders of the Xiao Family subconsciously stepped back a few steps.
They had yet no intention of becoming enemies with the Yao Family.
As for this Third Young Master Xiao, they just let him fend for himself…
Mu Ruyue’s hand touched the hilt of her sword, and with a whoosh, she drew it. The longsword swept through the air, creating a whirlwind that fiercely tossed Third Young Master Xiao out.
Bang!
His body crashed onto a table, instantly splitting it in half.
Spurt!
A stream of fresh blood sprayed out as he stared in horror at the white-robed woman approaching him, his heart involuntarily trembling violently.
Despair pressed down on his heart like a massive stone, making it difficult for him to breathe. At this moment, Third Young Master Xiao no longer thought about anything else. He only wanted to survive…
Mu Ruyue slowly walked forward.
With each step she took, a subtle yet spreading aura of killing intent filled the air. Her white robes fluttered without wind, her long black hair slowly drifting about.
“No!”
Third Young Master Xiao’s eyes were about to split open, just about to beg for mercy, when suddenly a beam of light shot in from the door, and with a splatter, the longsword plunged deeply into his heart…
His body shuddered, and as he looked up at the girl in front of him, his heart sank in an instant, letting out a despairing and painful cry, “Jing’er, you…”
Slowly, Third Young Master Xiao closed his eyes, unable even to the end to understand why his most beloved daughter would strike him down…
The Xiao Family was also stunned, staring in disbelief at the girl who had appeared out of nowhere.
Gazing at the body before her, Xiao Jing’s sweet face darkened, and her eyes flickered with an indiscernible glow, “Father, don’t think I didn’t know about the things you’ve done. Mother’s death is also tied to you.”
Xiao Jing gently pulled out the longsword, her cutely fierce expression returning to that sweet smile. She turned to look at Mu Ruyue and sweetly said, “So you are Xiao Yun’s descendant? I didn’t have time to speak with you last time I saw you. My father went too far, and now that I have killed him, I suppose it’s a form of atonement. I hope you won’t hold my father’s actions against the Xiao Family.”
The girl’s words were logical but gave Mu Ruyue an uncomfortable feeling, although she couldn’t pinpoint where this discomfort came from.
It felt as if some part of her heart was rejecting her approach…
“Considering Bai Xuan’s face, as long as the Xiao Family does not cross me again, I won’t exterminate them utterly, but if anyone dares to cause trouble in the Alchemy Tower, I, Mu Ruyue, am not afraid of anything!”
As she spoke, she turned around, casting her gaze towards the sky, and said, “Big Brother should be awake now, Yunqing, no, I should call you Sister-in-law now. Let’s go.”
Yao Yunqing’s handsome face instantly turned crimson, casting a shy glance at Mu Ruyue, “I’m not your sister-in-law yet.”
“Didn’t you guys already become intimate? How are you not?” Mu Ruyue turned her head, winked, and broke into a smirk.
“Isn’t that kind of thing very normal in our place?”
Although she was conservative deep down and had never lost her chastity before, this could be considered her first time in her two lifetimes…
