Chapter 453: Chapter 455: Middle-level Mortal Alchemist (Part 4)
“Yan Fei, what do you really want?” Third Master Xiao cursed through gritted teeth, his furious gaze boring into Yan Fei.
“Nothing much, just bring out that stinking brat Xiao Feng, along with that woman by his side!”
“Are you referring to Xiao Feng and his sister?” Third Master Xiao was stunned, a venomous light flickering in the depths of his eyes.
“Correct!” Yan Fei lifted his chin, sneering, “Those two bastards dared to lay hands on my son, and now he can only make the sound of a dog. I want those two to pay a thousandfold, ten thousandfold for this!!!”
Third Master Xiao let out a cold laugh.
How fortuitous this was for him, he had thought there were no more ways to deal with those two…
“What are you laughing at?” Yan Fei’s eyes widened in anger as he spoke.
“Well… Master Yan, rest assured, I, Third Master Xiao, am the epitome of justice. How could I possibly allow your family to suffer such a grievance? I will call those siblings out right now, and let you deal with them as you see fit.”
The epitome of justice?
Yan Fei felt contemptuous of Third Master Xiao’s words, but he didn’t say much more. He was here mainly for those two people…
“Oh, you seem to have quite the commotion here.”
Suddenly, an elderly voice came from behind.
Third Master Xiao looked back in surprise, and saw Chen Fan and an elder approaching. Upon seeing the elder, his heart leaped with joy, and he quickly greeted them, “Master Wushan, General Chen, what brings you here? Are you here for Xiao Tian?”
“Oh?” Master Wushan dragged out the syllable. In truth, that Xiao Tian was already ruined, and on top of that, he was excessively overbearing in his usual conduct. Even though he was talented, Master Wushan had never taken a liking to this disciple.
How could he possibly have come for him?
“What has happened here?” Master Wushan’s brow furrowed with a look of disdain as he glanced at Yan Fei.
“It’s like this, Master Wushan,” Third Master Xiao eagerly explained, “Xiao Feng and his sister Xiao Ruyue injured Master Yan’s son. Master Yan is here for revenge on behalf of his son, and I, Third Master Xiao, being a bastion of fairness and justice, was just about to advocate for Master Yan.”
Because Mu Ruyue had told Chen Fan using her original name, for a moment neither of them realized the person he spoke of was her…
Master Wushan’s brow furrowed tightly, his eyes gradually showing urgency.
Just moments ago, he had fed the Fourth Prince the Bone Transformation Pill. The Fourth Prince was indeed afflicted with another poison, and had it not been for the throne’s foresight in preparing Fire Wolf Blood, the Fourth Prince’s life would have been in jeopardy…
That time, Master Wushan had lost, but he had lost thoroughly convinced, all his pride vanishing at that moment. In order to save the Fourth Prince’s life, he had reluctantly come to apologize to Mu Ruyue…
Thinking about how he nearly caused the Fourth Prince’s demise due to his own reasons, Master Wushan’s old face showed a look of guilt. He was silent for a while before saying, “I have come to the Xiao Family in search of a person.”
“Looking for someone?” Third Master Xiao was taken aback, “May I ask whom Master Wushan is searching for… ”
“Oh, a young lady with the surname Mu.”
“The surname Mu? But there’s no one by that surname in the Xiao Family…”
“No one?” Master Wushan’s eyebrows creased as he turned to look at Chen Fan, “General Chen, what’s the meaning of this?”
Chen Fan was also baffled as to why she was not in the Xiao Family; he shook his head and said, “The young lady told me she resided with the Xiao Family, how could she not be there?”
“Hehe,” Third Master Xiao forced a laugh, “Master Wushan, General Chen, could it be that you’ve been misinformed? We really don’t have anyone with the surname Mu in our Xiao Family…”
