The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 2675 - 2650: Tang Family Patriarch! Tangjing Xiu!
"Honored ancestors of the family, this is not caused by Miss Yuezhi cultivating the Black Water Divine Thunder. Rather, Miss Yuezhi is dueling with someone..." A charming young man stepped forward with a smile and said.
Tangjing Xiu and the other Elders all turned around, and upon seeing this charming man, a look of disdain crossed their faces, as if they didn’t want to say much to him.
Tangjing Xiu asked at this moment, "Tang Yang, what do you mean by this?"
The charming young man was none other than Tang Yang.
Tang Yang chuckled softly, "My lord Patriarch, a friend of mine saw a warrior sneak into Miss Yuezhi’s residence last night with his own eyes, not knowing what they were doing!"
"But soon thereafter, there was the sound of fighting from Miss Yuezhi’s residence."
"I think there must be a connection between the two of them."
Tang Yang said with a light smile.
Upon hearing this, Tangjing Xiu’s face immediately turned icy, and he looked coldly towards Tang Yuezhi’s residence and shouted, "Yuezhi, are you okay?"
"If you don’t answer me, I will have to come in then!"
Tangjing Xiu growled in a low voice, anxious due to Tang Yang’s words about an intruder entering Tang Yuezhi’s residence.
Tang Yang, however, said no more, standing with arms crossed, looking at the ruins.
"Father, is something the matter?"
While Tangjing Xiu was anxiously waiting, a voice came from within the ruins, belonging to Tang Yuezhi.
Then, Tang Yuezhi, dressed in a white robe, walked out slowly, coming before Tangjing Xiu and the other Tang Family Elders.
Seeing Tang Yuezhi unharmed, Tangjing Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, then coldly said, "Yuezhi, what happened? Tang Yang said he saw someone breaking into your residence last night. Is that true?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Yuezhi looked towards Tang Yang, her beautiful eyes revealing a hint of coldness. She chuckled softly, "Indeed, there was such an incident, and Tang Yang did not see wrongly!"
Tangjing Xiu roared with anger, "Someone really broke into your residence? Who was it? Who is tired of living?"
Upon hearing Tang Yuezhi’s admission, the other Tang Family Elders all said, "It must have been a warrior from the Zhao Family, trying to take revenge on the Tang Family for what happened a year ago!"
"That’s right, it must have been someone from the Zhao Family!"
When they heard someone broke into Tang Yuezhi’s chambers at night, all the Tang Family Elders immediately thought of the Zhao Family.
After all, although the Tang Family Ancestor had intervened in last year’s incident, it was still a great humiliation for the Zhao Family, who would undoubtedly seek revenge afterward.
Tangjing Xiu said coldly, "Was it really someone from the Zhao Family?"
At this moment, Tang Yuezhi smiled faintly and said, "Father and the honored Elders, there is no need to panic. Someone indeed visited my residence last night, but he didn’t break in; I sent for him!"
"Lin Bai, come out!"
Tang Yuezhi turned her head and looked towards the ruins behind her.
At this moment, Lin Bai, dressed in a white robe, stepped out and cupped his fists, saying, "I am Lin Bai, greetings to you all, seniors!"
Tangjing Xiu eyed Lin Bai sharply, then asked Tang Yuezhi, "Yuezhi, what is going on?"
Tang Yuezhi chuckled and said, "I heard from Uncle Tang Long that a Sword Cultivator with extraordinary Sword Skill had arrived at the Guest Quarters, so I wanted to see for myself. Last night, I invited him over for a sparring match!"
"The sword skills of Guest Official Lin Bai are truly top-class in this world!"
"The two of us couldn’t hold back for a moment, and that’s how we ended up demolishing this little courtyard! Please arrange for someone to restore it for me, father!"
Tang Yuezhi said with a soft tone.
Lin Bai gave a wry smile and remained silent.
Upon hearing this, Tangjing Xiu nodded and asked, "Is that really the case?"
Tang Yuezhi nodded slightly.
Hearing Tang Yuezhi’s explanation, Tangjing Xiu immediately felt reassured.
Hearing Tang Yuezhi’s explanation, Tang Yang felt baffled and secretly exclaimed in his heart: How could this be? How could this be? Clearly, Lin Bai came uninvited; why would Tang Yuezhi say she invited Lin Bai?
At this moment, Tang Yang’s eyes rolled around, looking at Tang Yuezhi and said, "Miss Yuezhi, all the warriors of the Tang Family know that after nightfall, no one is allowed near your residence, even the Patriarch cannot!"
"So how could you have invited Lin Bai to your residence last night?"
"Moreover, a friend of mine personally saw Lin Bai go in!"
"Miss Yuezhi, why are you covering for him?"
Tang Yang said angrily.
"Tang Yang..." Lin Bai’s eyes flashed as he looked towards Tang Yang.
Originally, Lin Bai couldn’t figure out what this was all about, but now, seeing Tang Yang here, Lin Bai had a very strong feeling that these matters were inextricably linked with Tang Yang.
Tang Yuezhi’s face also turned colder, and she said in a cold voice, "When I invite someone over, when I refuse to see people, is not for you to decide, Tang Yang!"
Seeing the change in Tang Yuezhi’s expression, Tang Yang awkwardly laughed and said nothing more!
Tangjing Xiu then said, "Alright, since there is nothing else, Elders, you may return!"
"In addition, arrange for someone to restore the eldest miss’s residence to its original state!"
Tang Yuezhi cupped her fists and said, "Father, I’ll visit you later. I have something I need to discuss with Guest Official Lin Bai now!"
"Alright." Tangjing Xiu nodded slightly and turned to leave.
Tang Yang, unwillingly, also turned to leave.
The other Tang Family Elders followed suit and left.
At this moment, only Lin Bai and Tang Yuezhi remained over the ruins.
Lin Bai gratefully said, "Thank you, Miss Yuezhi. Otherwise, even with a hundred tongues, I wouldn’t be able to explain myself!"
Tang Yuezhi said coldly, "Did you offend Tang Yang?"
Lin Bai said in surprise, "How did Miss Yuezhi know?"
Tang Yuezhi coldly said, "The moment I saw Tang Yang, I knew this matter couldn’t be separated from him. In the entire Tang Family, apart from him being so lawless, who else would dare to use me as an instrument for murder?"
"All the Tang Family warriors know that after nightfall, I will be cultivating, and no warrior is allowed near my residence."
"Tang Yang probably knew this, which is why he arranged for someone to call you over, wanting to use my hand to kill you!"
Tang Yuezhi said icily.
Hearing Tang Yuezhi’s explanation, all the confusion in Lin Bai’s heart was instantly resolved. Looking at it this way, there was no doubt that the hand against Lin Bai behind the scenes was indeed Tang Yang.
Tang Yuezhi said coldly, "You need to be careful. Tang Yang’s connections within the Tang Family are extremely complicated. Even if he committed a monumental mistake, the Family wouldn’t heavily punish him!"
"So if you get caught in his schemes again in the future, you might not be so lucky next time."
Lin Bai nodded, "I will make sure to be careful in the future!"
