59: Chapter 59: Qingyi’s Fiancé (First Update) 59: Chapter 59: Qingyi’s Fiancé (First Update) “It’s bad, it’s bad, Brother Can, another man has led people to storm in.”
A junior of the Mu Family rushed into the Mu Family hall in a flurry, panting as he spoke.
Now, almost the entire Mu Family looked up to Mu Can, and he had indeed become the top figure of the Mu Family.
“Take it slow, why the panic?” Mu Can spoke with a calm face.
Seeing Mu Can’s composed expression, the rushing Mu Family junior also gradually calmed down.
He began to explain.
It turned out that just after they left the martial arts platform, a formidable young man arrived at the Mu Family’s gates and with a single sword strike, he had split the gate, furiously demanding to see the Clan Leader of the Mu Family.
The Mu Family members present could not stand by, stepped forward to reason with him, but were all injured.
“Hmm, I see, Brother Huo Lie, sorry to make you witness such a farce,” Mu Can said with an apologetic look towards Huo Lie.
Having someone smash their way to the doorstep and even destroy the main gate was indeed somewhat embarrassing for Mu Can.
“It’s alright, it’s alright, Brother.
I’ll come with you and have a look.
Just so happens I brought two Martial Venerate level helpers,” Huo Lie was actually pleased that there was a bit of trouble at the Mu Family, which would give his companions a chance to show their skills.
“Who else dares to make trouble at the Mu Family?
Isn’t that just seeking death?” thought the two Martial Venerate experts brought by Huo Lie, who had been extremely cautious since meeting Xuanyuan Mingkong, not daring to utter even a peep and behaving impeccably respectful.
Now, seeing that someone dared to smash the Mu Family’s gate, they were quite curious about who had the audacity.
Mu Can gave a fist salute, courteously saying to Huo Lie, “Thank you then, Brother.
Would you mind coming with me?”
The conversation just now had momentarily created an alliance between the two, and now with someone causing trouble for the Mu Family, Huo Lie didn’t mind lending a hand.
With Huo Lie’s affirmative response, Mu Can led a group of people majestically towards the Mu Family gate.
“I want to see who else is looking for trouble with the Mu Family,” Mu Can thought to himself.
Qingyi, Old Hu, and others were closely following behind Mu Can, only Bing’er was missing, having called out to Mu Can in the morning without anyone knowing where she went.
“Brother Can, it’s him,” pointed out the Mu Family junior who had come to report, pointing at a young man standing in the open space.
Mu Can saw from afar a young man holding a longsword, standing proudly.
Around him, a whole circle of Mu Family members stood as if facing a great enemy, watching him tensely.
Several Mu Family members lay on the ground, rolling in pain, apparently injured.
The young man looked to be just over twenty, dressed in striking white brocade clothes, with a belt of indiscernible material around his waist, his handsome face bearing eyes full of defiance, coldly observing the Mu Family members surrounding him.
“Mu Can is here, Mu Can is here,” upon seeing Mu Can approaching, the Mu Family members immediately cleared a path for him.
Seeing Mu Can, the young man in white brightened his eyes and arrogantly asked, “Are you the Mu Can they’ve been waiting for?”
“Who are you?
Who gave you the audacity to destroy my Mu Family’s main gate?” Mu Can asked coldly, the young man’s defiant attitude incredibly irritating to him.
“I thought there was some big shot, but just a minor Martial King dares to speak out, have someone of Martial Venerate strength talk instead.
But looking at the state of your household, I guess you don’t have a Martial Venerate,” the young man glanced at Mu Can, his face full of disdain.
“Heh.
I am indeed at the Martial King Realm, but the Mu Family is currently under my command.
Even if you’re a Martial Venerate, you better give me a good reason, otherwise, for destroying my Mu Family’s gate, I will make you realize whether the Mu Family is easy to bully or not,” Mu Can chuckled, but his tone grew increasingly serene, turning into a faint threat at the end.
Anyone could tell that Mu Can was not in a good mood.
“You’re in charge here?
Fine, then I’ll ask you to find someone.” The young man frowned, looking displeased as he spoke to Mu Can.
“Find who?” Mu Can’s expression grew even colder.
Despite his coldness, Mu Can was always ready for a fight.
The young man in front of him seemed only a few years older than Mu Can and was already at the Martial Venerate Level.
Mu Can couldn’t help feeling resentful, thinking, “Since when has it become so common to encounter Martial Venerate experts in the small Pingyun City?”
Donghuang was already an exception, and this young man, who seemed not much older than Donghuang, was also at the Martial Venerate Level.
“I’m here to take Qingyi home,” the young man slowly stated, his tone slightly different when he mentioned Qingyi.
“Take Qingyi home?
Who are you to her?” Mu Can asked with a furrowed brow as soon as he heard Qingyi’s name from the young man.
“I am her fiancé,” the young man stated proudly, full of confidence in his tone.
“You’re my fiancé?
Then why don’t I recognize you?” Qingyi, who had been coldly watching the young man since he mentioned her name, quickly interjected, fearful that Mu Can might misunderstand.
Mu Can couldn’t hold it in any longer and burst out laughing, “You can’t even recognize Qingyi, and you claim to be her fiancé?”
The young man’s face turned red, evidently feeling awkward, but he immediately looked at Qingyi eagerly and said.
“Qingyi, my junior sister, do you not recognize me?
It was master who asked me to bring you back.” The young man seemed very excited to see Qingyi again.
“Who are you?” Qingyi felt the young man looked somewhat familiar, but having been away from home for so long, she truly couldn’t recall who he was.
“Qingyi, do you know him?” Mu Can gently pulled Qingyi’s hand and asked.
Mu Can knew only that Qingyi was not actually from the Mu Family but had merely lived with the Mu Family.
Previously, it was evident from Xiao Hong’s perspective that Qingyi’s true family was definitely several times stronger than the Mu Family.
“How dare you touch Miss’s hand?
I will chop you.” Seeing Mu Can pulling Qingyi’s hand, the young man in white seemed provoked and drew his longsword to strike at Mu Can.
Huo Lie signaled two Martial Venerates behind him with his eyes, and they nodded, appearing instantly beside the young man in white to stop his action.
Qingyi shook her head after listening to Mu Can and said, a bit bewildered, “I seem to have an impression, but I can’t remember.”
“Qingyi, my junior sister, I’m Xiao Bai!” the young man hurriedly shouted upon realizing Qingyi didn’t recognize him.
Hearing the name Xiao Bai, Qingyi’s eyes brightened, and she exclaimed joyfully, “You are Brother Xiao Bai?”
“It seems Qingyi really does know this young man in white.
But what’s this about a fiancé?” Mu Can thought to himself as he observed the young man in white.
“Remember now?
Hehe, I’m Xiao Bai,” the young man in white, seeing Qingyi remembered him, joyfully said.
“How come you’re here?
And what’s this about being my fiancé?” Although Qingyi remembered the young man’s identity, as soon as he mentioned being her fiancé, she immediately put on a stern face and spoke.
