CHAPTER 669: CHAPTER 161: THE TOAD THAT ATE THE SWAN

Chen Lianlian’s heart was filled with sorrow and regret, as she blamed everything on Yun Sheng, but it was already too late.

She knew that after today, even if she returned to the Mainland Magic Elite Camp, the whole camp would learn of her scandal.

Her mentor would certainly despise her for it.

She could no longer be the unapproachable Sakura Beauty of the Magic Elite Camp on the continent.

Chen Lianlian looked towards the crowd again, her pupils shrinking sharply, as she saw a figure she had longed for day and night.

Ye Beiming, he too was standing amongst the crowd.

Dressed in black, he was still dazzling even in the dark night.

She had been seen at her lowest by him.

Hate, such deep hatred.

At that moment, Chen Lianlian felt as if the whole world had collapsed, frustration overwhelming her, she couldn’t catch her breath and then fainted.

In the moment before she lost consciousness, Chen Lianlian’s mind was crossed with a single thought.

No matter who it was, all those who had wronged her, they must all die.

Yun Sheng, Chu Yu, Tian Yitu, Young Madam, all of them, must pay the price.

Seeing Chen Lianlian collapse, Elder Helian had no choice but to order Yun Sheng to check on her.

"Yun Sheng, come quickly and take a look," Elder Helian was also raging with anger in his heart, having noticed Elder Yu enjoying the tumult.

It was so shameful that it was beyond words; Chen Lianlian had seemed shrewd on normal days, so how could she be so unguarded this time? When she returned to the Continent Magic Elite Camp this time, she must be strictly punished, and her tutor Xi Yao must also be questioned on her teaching methods.

Yun Sheng stepped forward to check and found that Chen Lianlian was simply suffering from a lack of blood and had been excessively frightened, nothing too serious.

A few female Mages sent Chen Lianlian away.

Donghuang Lingling, who had been eagerly watching, couldn’t help but blurt out as the crowd dispersed, "What goes around comes around. This woman, let’s see her strut around from now on."

"Sister Yu, was it you who made the move?" Yun Sheng only remembered that she had reminded Chu Yu to be wary of Chen Lianlian, but in the blink of an eye, Chu Yu had disciplined Chen Lianlian in such a way.

"As one sows, so shall one reap. It’s her own fault. It’s just a pity that the stone is not in our hands," said Chu Yu as she recounted the whole story to them.

Chu Yu had initially planned to take advantage of the moment when Tian Yitu and Chen Lianlian were lost in their lust to find the whereabouts of that stone, but unfortunately, even after searching through all of Tian Yitu’s clothing, the Mysterious Stone could not be found.

It seemed Tian Yitu, that prodigal son, still had some brains and did not carry the stone with him everywhere.

Chu Yu could only think of other methods.

After hearing the whole story from Chu Yu, Donghuang Lingling was both admiring and angry.

She felt a bit of sympathy for Chen Lianlian at first, but it turned out that the woman brought disaster on herself.

"That’s too cruel, Sister Yu, you’re so clever. But how did Chen Lianlian get involved with the Eldest Young Master of Sky Wing City?" Donghuang Lingling asked with a face full of gossip.

"That should be asked of the Eldest Young Master himself, right now, he probably doesn’t have good days ahead," laughed Chu Yu.

With such a commotion caused by the Young Madam this time, the news must have already reached the Tianyi City Lord’s Mansion.

Right now, the Second Young Master Tian Yidong is probably reveling in Schadenfreude.

Inside the Tianyi City Lord’s Mansion, both the disheveled Eldest Young Master and the Young Madam whose rage had yet to subside were kneeling in the hall.

The hall was littered with broken pieces of teacups, and the Sky Wing City Lord sat on the Taishi Chair, his face ashen.

"Look at the fine mess you’ve made, you wretch!" The Sky Wing City Lord had just finished practicing his martial arts when he heard about this disgraceful incident.

Enraged, he had the Eldest Young Master, who was hiding in another courtyard, dragged back.

"Father, it’s not my fault. It was Chen Lianlian who threw herself at me. Besides, I am a normal man; when a beauty offers herself, how can I push her away?" Tian Yitu remarked with an unflinching face and calm heart.

Since Chen Lianlian was not present, he could tell the story however he wanted.

"How old are you now, yet you still can’t control your own lower half? Tian Yitu, you’ll meet your end on a woman’s belly sooner or later!" The Sky Wing City Lord was extremely furious, almost wishing he could slap his son to death on the spot.

But after all, he was his own flesh and blood, and since the deed was done, all he could do was think of ways to mend relations with the Mainland Magic Elite Camp.

Grumbling, Tian Yitu glanced at the Young Madam beside him, who was fierce as a tigress. "If it weren’t for you forcing this tigress upon me, would I need to indulge in pleasures outside?

Hearing this, the Young Madam next to him made a move as if she was about to start a fight with him.

"Enough!" The Sky Wing City Lord felt a headache coming on from the anger.

He really was wise for a lifetime, but foolish for a moment—how could he have sired such a prodigal son.

One elder son who’s lecherous, and a second son who’s prone to Longyang tendencies. Continue like this, and who knows who will inherit the family business in a hundred years.

"Father, I am speaking the truth," Tian Yitu struggled with the Young Madam, and using his strength as a man, finally managed to subdue her.

His eyes shifted, recalling something Chen Lianlian had said earlier, "Actually, it’s very simple for your son to stop being fickle-hearted. Father, if you would just marry Chu Yu to me, I promise I’d stay at home."

"Alright, you shameless wretch. I knew there was nothing good between you and that little fox spirit, Chu Yu, with all your furtive glances," the Young Madam exploded with rage upon hearing this and began to scuffle with Tian Yitu once again.

"Stop it!" The Sky Wing City Lord roared in anger.

The bickering Eldest Young Master and Young Madam both felt an instant discomfort in their guts, aware that the City Lord was truly enraged this time, and quickly let go of each other.

"My Lord," an elder steward next to him proposed, "What the Eldest Young Master suggested isn’t infeasible. Chu Yu is clever and has been raised in the City Lord Mansion since childhood. She would be capable of managing the Eldest Young Master. As for the Young Madam, please be more tolerant. After all, she is the wife of Eldest Young Master, legally married to him, and if the Eldest Young Master should have offspring, they would still bear your name."

The Sky Wing City Lord pondered deeply upon hearing this.

He had watched Chu Yu grow up, but Manager Chu had always been firmly opposed to the Eldest Young Master marrying Chu Yu.

The Young Madam also harbored her own calculations. If marrying Chu Yu into the family could deter other women, she would be willing.

Moreover, there was always a thorn in the Young Madam’s heart.

This time, even she could not handle the Eldest Young Master.

The marriage between the Eldest Young Master and the Young Madam had lasted for seven or eight years, yet they had no issue.

Following the incident with Chen Lianlian, Tian Yitu grew even more repelled by the Young Madam, and had earlier tried to convince the Sky Wing City Lord to take another concubine.

Initially, the Sky Wing City Lord was somewhat impatient with the idea, but as the requests persisted, and given the state of his two sons...

The eldest son, promiscuous by nature, had long stopped sharing a room with his wife, making it difficult to have an heir.

As for the second son, his homosexual inclinations were widely known throughout the Sky Wings Arena; expecting him to produce an heir was even more impossible.

After much deliberation, the Sky Wing City Lord thought it better to have Chu Yu, an excellent candidate, marry into the family rather than risk his eldest son causing trouble with some disreputable woman and fathering a child of dubious lineage.
