Upon hearing these words, Xiao Yifei spoke with great indignation, as if all these matters were done by Xiao Wushuang. However, it wasn’t Xiao Yifei’s fault; if soone were using your na and achieving more than you, anyone would be furious. Now, Xiao Yifei was actually acting quite well.
Listening to Xiao Yifei’s words, Xiao Wushuang was taken aback for a mont, then looked at Mu Feng with a hint of despair. Mu Feng stood with a cold face staring at Xiao Wushuang, obviously having understood Xiao Yifei’s words.
At that mont, there was a sudden commotion outside the door. After a while, Muyun slowly walked in with the support of a servant, his entire face shrouded in gloom.
Seeing Muyun walk in, the already frightened Xiao Wushuang imdiately started trembling. It was known from the start, it was Muyun who had invited Xiao Yifei here. Now upon realizing that he was deceived and nearly killed by Xiao Wushuang, how could he not be furious?
"Young Master Muyun, I..." Xiao Wushuang hurriedly tried to explain before Muyun could speak, but it was too late. Muyun had heard everything clearly from outside the door. "Enough!" Muyun shouted angrily, and Xiao Wushuang imdiately dared not speak further.
"Xiao Wushuang, it was I who invited you here, so it’s my own doing. From now on, don’t let see you again!" Muyun took a deep breath and continued, "Also, go back and tell your Xiao Family that our Mu Family will never rest until one of us is dead!"
Like a thunderbolt, Muyun’s words were deeply engraved in Xiao Wushuang’s mind. The thing he feared most had finally beco a reality. The enmity between him and Muyun had turned into a family conflict. The Xiao Family, indeed large and prosperous, allied with many other families.
But no matter what, the Xiao Family dared not oppose the Mu Family. Why? Because the Mu Family held great power. No matter how large the Xiao Family was, or how many alliances it had, their hands were empty of real power. How could Xiao Wushuang dare to escalate their personal grudges to the family level?
Therefore, upon hearing Muyun’s words, Xiao Wushuang panicked and hurriedly pleaded, "Young Master Muyun, I beg you, it’s all my fault. I’ll take full responsibility. Please don’t trouble the Xiao Family."
Hearing this, Muyun was sowhat surprised. In Muyun’s eyes, soone like Xiao Wushuang always prioritized himself. Now he was actually pleading for others? It was indeed unbelievable. But how could Muyun know? Xiao Wushuang wasn’t afraid of the family taking action but was afraid of being punished by his own family mbers.
That was what truly worried Xiao Wushuang. Muyun didn’t see this, but Xiao Yifei, standing by, imdiately understood Xiao Wushuang’s thoughts. Looking at his frantic expression, it wasn’t for his family at all but purely for himself. Thus, Xiao Yifei coldly watched Xiao Wushuang.
Although surprised, Muyun’s decision was firm and unchangeable. Hence he said in a deep voice, "It’s useless, I will definitely seek revenge on the Xiao Family for today’s grievance." As he spoke, Muyun’s eyes turned fierce, showing that his words were absolutely not in jest.
Seeing Muyun’s actions, Mu Feng felt a wave of gratification. Muyun indeed had the talent and character to be a qualified leader, but unfortunately, his body could not bear his talents. This had always been Mu Feng’s regret, which is why he cherished Muyun so much.
Seeing Muyun’s deanor, Xiao Wushuang knew that Muyun was serious, aning that he could never shake off the reputation of being the Xiao Family’s criminal. Xiao Wushuang’s eyes appeared sowhat desperate; he was still sitting on the ground, seeing everything around him as disdainful.
Feeling utterly helpless, whether it be towards the family or others, was identical. Now, learning that the Xiao Family knew of these matters, he feared he wouldn’t be able to return ho. At this thought, Xiao Wushuang’s jaws clenched tightly.
Upon hearing Muyun sparing Xiao Wushuang, Liu Rui was sowhat astonished, or rather, displeased. Liu Rui couldn’t stand Xiao Wushuang; Xiao Yifei knew this too. So, seeing Liu Rui’s expression, Xiao Yifei understood what Liu Rui was thinking and comforted him, "Forget it, this is Muyun’s decision. Let it be. Besides, not punishing Xiao Wushuang outright may also serve as its own kind of punishnt."
After hearing Xiao Yifei’s words, Liu Rui was puzzled, letting him go without punishnt? Shouldn’t he be beaten half to death at least? Liu Rui was confused, but seeing Xiao Yifei just smiling, Liu Rui helplessly shrugged and let it go.
"Mr. Xiao Yifei, regarding the misunderstanding with you earlier, I apologize again here. Also, for your help, I will rember it in my heart. In the future, if there’s anything, Mr. Xiao Yifei, please feel free to tell . Whatever I can help with, Muyun will never refuse." Muyun suddenly turned towards Xiao Yifei and spoke sincerely.
It was clear that Muyun was sincere, and Xiao Yifei didn’t decline either, nodding slightly. However, just then, Xiao Wushuang, who had been hanging his head, moved. Everyone saw a line ford by white powder flying towards Xiao Yifei, "Xiao Yifei! Go and die!" Standing up, Xiao Wushuang looked at Xiao Yifei with a ferocious expression, which no one expected.
The crowd was unprepared, looking at the scene before them, speechless with surprise. No one expected Xiao Wushuang to still resort to such an act at this point, but indeed, it was human nature; even a cornered dog will jump over the wall.
Therefore, Xiao Wushuang threw out his last remaining Blood-Breaking Gut onto Xiao Yifei. Just as everyone thought Xiao Yifei would definitely get poisoned, Muyun shouted out, "Be careful!" And in a flash faster than lightning, Muyun stood in front of Xiao Yifei.
While Xiao Wushuang’s actions were unexpected, Muyun’s move shocked everyone further. All the white powder landed on Muyun. Although so were stopped by his clothes, so still touched Muyun’s skin.
Prior, Xiao Wushuang had always dissolved Blood-Breaking Gut in water to avoid detection. However, Blood-Breaking Gut is effective when ingested or coming in contact with skin. The area of contact gradually ulcerates, and the poison perates through pores into the bloodstream, leading to inevitable poisoning.
So, when Muyun’s skin touched Blood-Breaking Gut, he imdiately fell to the ground in pain, appearing agonized. At this mont, Xiao Yifei had not yet realized what had happened, but Liu Rui reacted quickly, kicking Xiao Wushuang to the ground.
Xiao Wushuang didn’t care about any of this. Seeing his Blood-Breaking Gut cast out, he laughed joyfully, ferociously, and desperately, evident on his face. Watching Muyun kneel on the ground, Xiao Wushuang disregarded everything else, despite his initial target being Xiao Yifei.
