Chapter 216 - 216 Arrogant
216 Arrogant
Su Xiaoxiao removed the old headband and tied her hair with the new one.
Her facial features were extremely good to begin with. Coupled with the effects of vitamins and collagen, her originally dark skin became fair and supple. With her cute round face, she was the most beautiful little girl in the world in Father Su’s eyes.
“Oh dear.”
Father Su suddenly sighed.
Su Xiaoxiao was confused. “What’s wrong, Dad? Doesn’t it look good on me?”
“It’s beautiful!” Father Su said.
Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Then why are you sighing?”
Father Su looked at the sky melancholicly. “Sigh, why do you think my son-in-law isn’t here yet?”
Back then, when she left Wei Ting in the capital, Su Xiaoxiao said that saving the patient was more important. Wei Ting still had some things to deal with, so they could not wait for him.
Father Su pondered and said, “Could it be that my son-in-law can’t find us? Are you sure you told him we’re here?”
Su Xiaoxiao’s expression didn’t change. “Yes, I did.”
…As if.
Wei Ting took the water route. Logically speaking, he was not much slower than Su Xiaoxiao and the others. However, Wei Ting’s journey was not peaceful. He was ambushed every few days and the attacks delayed his progress.
“Hahaha! What did I say? Xiao Zhonghua won’t let it go easily!”
Yuchi Xiu, who was dressed in black, excitedly pulled out his sword. He tapped the tip of his foot and flew up to kill the assassin blocking the way.
The man in white protected the carriage.
It was unknown how many waves of assassins there were.
In the beginning, the other party only sent three to five. It was not even enough to fill the gaps between Yuchi Xiu’s teeth.
Later on, the other party sent more people, from six to eight to ten.
Even if there were people who slipped over under Yuchi Xiu’s nose, they were blocked by the man in white.
In short, after a few rounds of assassination, they did not even touch the curtain of the carriage, let alone snatch the Commander’s Seal from Wei Ting.
Tonight, they seemed to have made up their minds not to return empty-handed. They mobilized 30 top assassins in the martial world in one go.
In addition, they also set up an ambush in the canyon. The huge falling rocks successfully blocked their path.
The white-robed man and Yuchi Xiu fell into a chaotic battle and could not split up. An assassin approached the carriage.
The assassin lifted the curtain!
However, where was the youngest son of the Wei family?
It was clearly a… scarecrow!
There was a piece of white paper stuck to the scarecrow’s chest. Two mocking words were written in bold strokes: Stupid!
Yuchi Xiu wrote it himself.
The assassin said, “Oh no! We’ve been tricked! They’ve lured us away!”
“F*ck you!” Yuchi Xiu kicked the assassin opposite him away and used his lightness skill to come to the high rock wall.
“I’m not playing with you anymore!”
He raised his sword and slashed down the huge rock on the rock wall.
The boulder rumbled down. However the assassins had dealt with them, he returned it many times over.
The man in white frowned.
Could this guy give a secret signal when he attacked?
Did he have a hobby of sacrificing his companions?
Fortunately, he dodged quickly and his qinggong was good enough. Otherwise, he would have been smashed to death by the huge rock!
The man in white looked at Yuchi Xiu coldly. “Aren’t you afraid that I won’t be able to dodge in time?”
Yuchi Xiu said innocently, “Is it my problem that you can’t dodge in time?”
“How could you be so unreasonable?”
The man in white was speechless.
How could Young Master stand this guy?
He had only been with him for a few days and had already wanted to kill him hundreds of times!
At sunset, the capital’s door slowly closed.
A carriage sped over.
The guard said, “The city gate is closed! Come back tomorrow!”
The city gate was on a winch. It was not easy to open and close it. Most of it was already closed, and they could not be bothered to open it again.
The carriage window was pushed open and a slender jade-like hand handed over a token.
The moment the guard saw the token clearly, his expression changed fiercely. He hurriedly took a step back and cupped his hands to apologize. “I was blind! I’ll open the city gate for you now!”
The city gate opened.
Wei Ting pulled down the window expressionlessly.
The carriage entered the city.
The secret guard disguised as a coachman asked, “Young Master, where are we going now? Are we returning to the residence or…”
Wei Ting said coldly, “Can I already return to the residence? Do you want the Emperor to punish the Wei family for deceiving the emperor?”
The secret guard hurriedly said, “I wouldn’t dare!”
The secret guard continued, “Then… to the Dragon Temple?”
This time, it couldn’t be wrong, right?
He was supposed to be cultivating at the Dragon Temple to protect the country. His Majesty couldn’t punish him, right…
Wei Ting snorted. “Do you think Xiao Zhonghua can’t guess that I’m returning to the temple? Do you want me to walk into a trap?”
The secret guard was speechless.
This would not do, and that would not do. Where was he going?!
Wei Ting said, “Grandmaster asked someone to bring me a letter. Read it to me.”
The secret guard mumbled, “No, why do you want me to read your letter? ”
“My lord, I can’t read.”
Wei Ting said, “Then I’ll read it to you.”
The secret guard muttered, “Uh… there’s no need…”
The secret guard had stayed in the Wei family for a few years and had never seen Wei Ting so restless. What happened in the countryside? Young Master had become strange.
Wei Ting unfolded the letter. “Forget it, you won’t understand what I mean.”
“The little girl went to the capital. She misses you very much. Unfortunately, the patient’s condition is critical, so she could only leave first.”
“You must look for her first when you reach the capital. She’s unfamiliar with the place and has three children. I’m worried that she won’t be used to it.”
“Most importantly, she misses you very much.”
The secret guard was stunned.
He had a feeling that this was not what was written in the letter, but looking at his young master’s expression, he seemed serious and did not seem to be making things up.
Wei Ting sighed helplessly. “Sigh, the Grandmaster asked me to look for her. What can I do?”
The Matriarch also asked him to return to the residence? Did he listen?
Wei Ting placed the letter on the table.
The secret guard stole a glance.
He was a secret guard after all. His eyesight was extremely good.
There were only three words on the paper.
He knew the one in the middle. It was Blossom.
Therefore, how did his young master… expand those three words with what he said and none of them were related to blossom?
“Young Master… where… are we going?”
He didn’t mention a single point!
Where the hell were they going? They’ve walked around the streets a few times!
Wei Ting snorted coldly, his gaze cold. “Pear, Blossom, Lane!”
