Chapter 442: Chapter 444 I Will Take Responsibility for You (Part 2)
“Xiao Feng!” Third Young Master Xiao’s complexion changed again and again, and he suddenly let out a cold laugh, “I might agree to her entering the Xiao Family, but only if she has enough strength. Our Xiao Family has no place for trash!”
The word ‘trash’ made the murderous aura on Xiao Feng’s body grow even denser, with a hint of cold light fleeting through his cold eyes, and just at that moment, a pair of hands landed on his shoulders.
Xiao Feng’s spine stiffened slightly, and he retracted the murderous aura enveloping him.
“Fine, I agree.” Mu Ruyue raised her eyes to look at Third Young Master Xiao, a glint shining in her gaze.
She had once promised the old ancestor Xiao Yun that one day she would return to the Xiao Family and uncover who had harmed him all those years ago…
“Sister,” Xiao Feng turned and took Mu Ruyue’s hand, frowning slightly as he spoke, “I stayed here to look for you, and now that you’ve returned, it doesn’t matter if we stay at the Xiao Family or not.”
“Big brother,” Mu Ruyue smiled and blinked at Xiao Feng, saying, “I still have some things to do here. Why don’t we stay for a while, and after I’ve dealt with those matters, we can leave this place…”
Xiao Feng was taken aback for a moment but eventually nodded his head.
“Tell me,” Mu Ruyue looked up at Third Young Master Xiao, a layer of chill over her exquisite features, “what should I do?”
Third Young Master Xiao let out a cold laugh, “Follow me and you’ll know.”
“Sister!”
Xiao Feng instinctively reached out to grab Mu Ruyue, his wary gaze falling on Third Young Master Xiao: “What are you trying to do?”
“What do I want to do? Of course, to prove her strength. Since she’s so confident, why wouldn’t she dare to try?”
His smile was mocking, and his disdainful gaze landed on Mu Ruyue’s face.
Mu Ruyue pushed Xiao Feng’s hand away and looked up at Third Young Master Xiao: “Fine, I’ll go with you!”
“Sister…”
“Big brother, don’t worry, I am confident.”
Looking at the girl’s radiant smile, Xiao Feng’s fingers trembled slightly.
This woman always acted this way; she would never embark on something she wasn’t sure of…
“Alright, I trust you.”
How could he not trust his own sister?
Without saying anything more, Mu Ruyue turned to Third Young Master Xiao: “Let’s go.”
Third Young Master Xiao sneered. This time, he would make sure she wouldn’t return. Would their father really kill his own son for such a woman?
Xiao Family’s Back Mountain.
Inside a cold cave, Mu Ruyue felt the bone-chilling cold and frowned slightly. Before she could say anything, the cave was suddenly sealed shut with a clang.
“Hahaha, stinking girl, enjoy the company of that Fierce Beast in there!!!”
A wild laugh echoed from outside the sealed cave.
Mu Ruyue remained calm and began to survey the cave, but before she could get a clear view of the situation, a baby-like voice, carrying a sinister tone, pierced her ears.
“Hehe, finally, some human flesh for me to enjoy.”
Suddenly, Mu Ruyue’s pupils constricted as she looked in the direction of the voice, and in an instant, an enormous figure appeared before her eyes…
It was a monstrous creature with a sheep’s body and a human face, with eyes beneath its armpits, tiger’s teeth, and human claws; utterly hideous, especially those sharp teeth that sent shivers down one’s spine.
“Taotie, the Fierce Beast Taotie!”
The legend said that the dragon had nine sons, one of which was the Taotie. But why would such an ancient Fierce Beast like the Taotie be suppressed under the Xiao Family?
