Where does that wicked woman get her conscience?

Chapter 271 Messy

Xiao Yue staggered, her heart filled with panic that threatened to consume her. She jogged along, grabbing Chunxue's arm and urgently asking, "What exactly happened? Explain yourself!"

“Reporting to Madam, this servant…this servant just returned to Yun Courtyard from the canteen with pastries and tea when I bumped into Granny Li leading a large group of people barging in. She said that Aunt Hua sent them to help Miss pack her things and buy some new items…” Chunxue replied, panting heavily.

"Buy something?" Xiao Yueluo trembled with anger. "What don't I have in my yard? They're clearly here to cause trouble on purpose! How dare they trespass into my yard!"

She turned and grabbed Zhuge Tianxia's sleeve, her voice filled with anxiety: "Tianxia, ​​hurry! If Xun'er is bullied, I will never forgive those beasts!"

"it is good."

The three of them moved even faster, almost flying as they rushed towards Guiyun Courtyard.

But as soon as I stepped into the courtyard, a strong smell of blood hit my nostrils.

Zhuge Tianxia frowned sharply, his face instantly darkening. His heart skipped a beat, and he knew something was wrong. Without thinking further, he dashed into the courtyard like lightning.

As soon as they stepped into the hall, the scene before them sent chills down their spines.

The hall floor was littered with corpses lying haphazardly, thick bloodstains meandering through the air, and a strong, pungent smell of blood filled the air, making one's nose sting.

Looking up again, two figures were sitting on the high chairs in the main hall.

Guan Xun had only a glaring bloodstain on the hem of her skirt, but she maintained a leisurely posture.

Bai Ze, standing beside him, frowned and kept rubbing his temples with his fingertips, clearly looking somewhat uncomfortable.

Noticing the commotion at the door, Bai Ze suddenly looked up, his gaze sweeping over Zhuge Tianxia and the others before turning to glance at Guan Xun, his tone tinged with mockery: "Someone's here. If they see you covered in blood, they won't just kick you out, will they? You just got back to your own home and you're already being chased away. That's pretty miserable."

"Heh." Guan Xun ignored his teasing and slowly turned his gaze to the doorway, landing on the three people who were frozen in place. He raised his eyebrows slightly.

The True Inheritance Hall is such a prestigious place that it naturally values ​​its reputation the most. Since she had just returned and caused such a commotion, it was not impossible for her to be kicked out. However, given how much the two of them doted on their daughter, this possibility was extremely small.

After being swept by the two men's gazes, Zhuge Tianxia and the others finally snapped out of their shock.

Xiao Yueluo was kind-hearted and couldn't bear to see such a bloody scene. But at this moment, she couldn't care less about the discomfort she felt. She broke free from Zhuge Tianxia's hand, lifted her skirt, and quickly stepped over the corpses on the ground, running towards Guan Xun.

Zhuge Tianxia frowned, his cold gaze quickly sweeping over the corpses before turning to Chunxue beside him, his voice deep: "Go and call someone to clean up."

"Yes...yes..." Chunxue was so frightened that her legs were weak. After hearing the order, she nodded hurriedly and stumbled out while holding onto the wall.

The young lady actually killed Granny Li and the others! I was worried she'd be bullied, but it seems I was overthinking it. How terrifying…

Xiao Yueluo rushed over and grabbed Guan Xun's hands tightly. Tears instantly streamed down her face. She looked him up and down with trembling eyes and cried, "Did they bully you? Are you hurt? Xun'er, is anything in pain? Let your mother take a look."

Bai Ze leaned back in his chair and rolled his eyes, inwardly scoffing. Was this lady blind? The corpses all over the ground were her daughter's doing. How could she be injured? Looking at the entire True Inheritance Hall, there were probably very few people who could hurt her.

Meanwhile, inside the doctor's clinic on the other side.

The doctors were working up a sweat, but they managed to pull Zhuge Yunzheng back from the brink of death.

Seeing this, Cuihua's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, suddenly settled down: "It's good that it's been saved, it's good that it's been saved... As long as we're alive, there's still a chance for everything."

She will do everything in her power, no matter the cost, to help Yunzheng resume her cultivation!

Just then, out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of the doctor who had been summoned by Uncle Fu to treat Xiao Yueluo returning with his medicine box.

Her face darkened, and she immediately stepped forward to stop the doctor: "How is Madam?"

The doctor dared not be negligent and quickly bowed to reply, "Second Madam, please rest assured, Madam's health is fine. She just needs to rest well for a few days. However, please remember not to let Madam get too emotional, as her body is already weak."

Cuihua was delighted. She still needed to rest for a few more days, but she didn't have the mind to worry about anything else right now.

"And what about the Palace Master?" she hurriedly asked.

"The Palace Master is with the Lady."

Upon hearing this, Cuihua stomped her foot in anger. She turned to the group of doctors and sternly ordered, "Take good care of the young master. Report any problems immediately!"

Then, he looked at Zhuge Zhao, who was standing to the side, and said, "You stay here and take good care of my elder brother."

After giving her orders, she angrily led a group of maids towards Guiyun Courtyard.

Zhuge Zhao looked at the unconscious person on the bed and breathed a sigh of relief, then frowned, his heart filled with doubt.

The atmosphere inside the courtyard seemed strange; everyone looked tense. Was it all because of the eldest brother's serious injury? Or had something else happened?

He hurriedly stopped the physician who was about to leave and asked, "Has something happened in the palace?"

The doctor paused for a moment, then replied, "Young Master, don't you know yet? Madam's long-lost daughter, the eldest daughter of our True Inheritance Hall, has been found! I heard that she was recognized at the Holy Edge Selection Tournament."

"Young Master, didn't you also attend that conference? How come you know nothing about it?"

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Zhao's confusion was instantly replaced by shock. The young lady? What young lady?! He exclaimed in surprise, "The young lady has been found? And at the Holy Edge Selection Tournament?"

My mind went blank for a moment, then went completely blank.

He remembered most of the participants in the Holy Vanguard Selection Tournament very clearly, yet he hadn't heard a single word about it! After his elder brother was injured, he returned to the palace with him and didn't watch the subsequent competitions.

He had no idea who the champion was or what happened afterward, and he never expected that something like this would happen.

"Do you know who she is?" Zhuge Zhao asked hastily.

Seeing his appearance, the doctor simply shook his head: "This old servant doesn't know the specifics, but I've heard... she's a girl with considerable strength."

Zhuge Zhao's brows furrowed immediately, his mind replaying the scenes from the selection conference, his gaze unconsciously sweeping over his older brother who was lying on the bed in a coma.

Suddenly, a white figure entered his thoughts: "Could it be her?"

The beautiful woman who fought against the eldest brother was incredibly strong.
