In Another World, Everyone Want to Kill Me! Chapter 228: Storm at Piaoxiang Courtyard

Tang Lubao’s words plunged Yue Mingxuan into deep thought.

Could there really be such a man in this world, soone who would love him the way his brother-in-law loved his sister?

For a mont, the two of them fell silent, each lost in their own thoughts.

The room was utterly still.

After a short while, an anxious voice suddenly broke the silence from outside the door.

"Gang Leader, the people of Piaoxiang Courtyard have rebelled."

What?

Both Yue Mingxuan and Tang Lubao were startled.

Not long after Bai Huayue’s disappearance, Piaoxiang Courtyard had erupted into rebellion, there was indeed sothing highly suspicious about this timing.

As the words fell, the ssenger had already rushed in and dropped to his knees in the hall while speaking urgently.

"Gang Leader, all four pavilions of Piaoxiang Courtyard have rebelled. Because the chanisms at the valley entrance have been damaged, the hidden guards can no longer restrain them. They’re inciting everyone to leave the courtyard."

At this point, he glanced cautiously at Yue Mingxuan, clearly uncertain whether he should continue.

Tang Lubao saw through his hesitation and said in a low voice, "Mingxuan is not an outsider. Just speak."

The man nodded and continued, "Piaoxiang Courtyard is now being stirred up by the four pavilions. They claim that Lady Bai had lost Piaoxiang Courtyard’s sacred treasure and has fled. They demand an explanation from her. So are even saying that Lady Bai had handed all of the Piaoxiang Courtyard’s chanisms over to the Midnight Blades and that Flying Opera Group and the Midnight Blades will soon rge into one, and that all the won of the Piaoxiang Courtyard will be forcibly married off..."

Before the man could finish, Tang Lubao could no longer suppress his fury.

He slamd his palm heavily onto the table.

"This is complete nonsense!"

Compared to Tang Lubao, Yue Mingxuan was far more composed.

This upheaval in Piaoxiang Courtyard was certainly not as simple as it appeared on the surface.

It was even possible that the people who had abducted Sister Bai were the ones orchestrating everything from behind the scenes.

Causing such a massive disturbance was clearly ant to force soone’s hand.

"Brother-in-law, it would be better for you to go and stabilize the situation personally," Yue Mingxuan said after a mont’s thought. "Piaoxiang Courtyard has now lost its defensive chanisms. A mob like that won’t amount to much."

Tang Lubao nodded.

Even if Yue Mingxuan had not said so, with Bai Huayue missing, he would still have guarded Flying Opera Group in her stead.

He imdiately gave the order.

"Select forty elite fighters to co with . Prepare the carriage. We’re going to Piaoxiang Courtyard."

Yue Mingxuan stepped forward two paces. "Brother-in-law, I’m coming as well."

Tang Lubao was straightforward and honest by nature.

If he were to be sched against upon arrival, it would be better to have one more person to discuss matters with.

Hearing this, Tang Lubao did not object.

After all, Yue Mingxuan himself was the Flower God recognized by the Four Nations.

His presence alone would carry a certain deterrent effect.

The group rushed to Piaoxiang Courtyard at top speed.

By the ti they arrived, many people had already surged toward the stone stele at the valley entrance.

Tang Lubao gathered his breath, circulated his inner energy, and called out loudly, "Tang Lubao of the Midnight Blades requests an audience with the Piaoxiang Courtyard steward."

After a brief stir rippled through the crowd at the valley entrance, four won of ethereal beauty stepped forward, escorting a woman with a cold and severe expression.

When Tang Lubao saw her, his brows furrowed slightly.

After Xiaoyin’s rebellion last ti, Yue’er had carried out a major purge of many important upper-level figures within Piaoxiang Courtyard.

As for when this new steward had taken her position, even he was not entirely sure.

He leapt down from the carriage and following the customs of the martial world, cupped his fists toward the woman before him.

"Tang Lubao, leader of the Midnight Blades."

Strictly speaking, with his status, there was no need for him to show such courtesy to a re steward.

But for Yue’er’s sake, he still chose to do so.

The woman cast Tang Lubao a cold glance and the words she spoke were far from pleasant.

"What is happening in Piaoxiang Courtyard today is an internal matter of our Flying Opera Group. I fail to see why it has alard Gang Leader Tang enough to make him co in person. If Gang Leader Tang has brought these brothers rely to seek amusent, then please return. Once Flying Opera Group has resolved its internal affairs, Tang Youyou will personally welco you then."

To be t with such a veiled rebuff right from the start made Tang Lubao’s face flush red with anger.

"Taking advantage of your sect leader’s absence to force your way out of Piaoxiang Courtyard what exactly are you trying to achieve?"

Tang Youyou glanced at Tang Lubao again, her tone laced with sarcasm.

"I’ve already told Gang Leader Tang that this is an internal matter of Flying Opera Group. If Gang Leader Tang truly wishes to interfere, then perhaps you should first marry our sect leader and make her yours before speaking further."

Hearing this, Tang Lubao could no longer suppress his rage.

He gathered his internal energy and preparing to strike, but he was stopped by Yue Mingxuan who had just stepped down from the carriage.

He had deliberately remained inside earlier and want to see exactly what kind of person this Tang Youyou was.

Sure enough, she turned out to be an old acquaintance.

"Gu Xiang," Yue Mingxuan said calmly, "instead of properly following your master, what are you doing showing off your authority here in Piaoxiang Courtyard?"

When Tang Youyou realized that the person before her was Yue Mingxuan, a blaze of fury instantly ignited in her eyes.

Very well, she had never expected heaven to be so kind as to deliver him straight into her hands today.
