Chapter 168 My Prince vs. Your Brother-in-Law



Upon arriving at the western suburban valley, Su Xuening lifted the carriage curtain and looked at Xuan Yuanzhan: "This is it. There's a formation in the valley ahead, and Master doesn't like seeing outsiders, so..."

Xuanyuan Zhan immediately understood and raised his hand to the guards behind him, saying, "Stop!"

Upon hearing this, the guards immediately pulled on the reins.

Looking at the two unconscious people in the carriage, Xuan Yuanzhan said worriedly, "Why don't I go in with you? You can't take them in by yourself."

Su Xuening could have asked her master to come out and take them in, but after glancing at the injury on Xuan Yuanzhan's waist, she finally gave in: "Then we'll have to trouble Your Highness."

His injury also needs treatment, so let's take him inside.

Xuanyuan Zhan boarded the carriage, took over the driving duties, and instructed the guards, "You may all return now!"

Then he looked at Ye Feng and Ye Yu and said, "You should go back together and tell the Dowager Princess that the Prince and Princess are safe and sound, and that she should not worry about us."

"Yes," they all replied in unison.

There shouldn't be any danger for the princess and the prince if they are together.

Xuanyuan Zhan drove the carriage into the Stone Forest.

Su Xuening sat in the carriage, intending to teach him how to break the formation, but unexpectedly he drove the carriage in strange, winding ways, and soon they were out of the stone forest.

Su Xuening stared at Xuan Yuanzhan in shock. This was the first time she had ever met someone who could break her master's formation, and his method of breaking the formation was completely different from hers.

I never expected him to know about formations, and he's even a master at it!

From the Stone Forest to the Ink Bamboo Forest, Xuan Yuanzhan broke the formation on his own without Su Xuening's guidance.

Pei Luo, inside the bamboo house, seemed to sense something and was shocked.

Halfway through his journey, Xuanyuan Zhan suddenly sensed something, abruptly raised his head, and saw an old man with white hair fly down from mid-air and strike him on the head.

Xuanyuan Zhan was shocked and immediately raised his palm to strike back, and the two began to fight in mid-air.

Both of them were extremely fast, and within a few breaths, they had already exchanged a hundred moves.

Hearing the commotion outside, Su Xuening immediately lifted the carriage curtain and saw Pei Luo and Xuan Yuanzhan fighting. She cried out in alarm, "Master, stop fighting!"

Pei Luo lowered her eyes and was even more startled when she saw Su Xuening on the carriage. She pushed Xuan Yuanzhan away with one hand.

Upon hearing Su Xuening call out "Master," Xuan Yuanzhan realized Pei Luo's identity and refrained from retaliating.

"Girl, why are you back?" Pei Luofei landed next to Su Xuening and looked at her expectantly.

He had just sensed someone breaking his formation and thought it was some petty thief, but he didn't expect it to be this girl who had returned. However, the way she broke the formation today was different from what he had taught her.

Xuanyuan Zhan also flew down to Su Xuening's side.

Upon seeing Xuan Yuanzhan, Pei Luo glared at him and asked, "Who is this kid?"

"Ahem~" Su Xuening introduced, her pretty face slightly flushed, "This is my prince."

The phrase "my prince" startled both men present.

Of course, Pei Luo was stunned, while Xuan Yuanzhan was delighted.

The words "My Prince" were like a layer of honey, smeared on Xuan Yuanzhan's heart. He never knew that these simple words could have such great magic!

Pei Luo never expected that this young man was the man Ya Tou married, and even more unexpectedly, Ya Tou brought him along.

Su Xuening then introduced Pei Luo to Xuan Yuanzhan: "This is my master."

"Master." Xuan Yuanzhan greeted Pei Luo with humility, bowing deeply.

Looking at the boy bowing to him, Pei Luo's eyelids twitched involuntarily: "Your martial arts are not bad, kid!"

Xuanyuan Zhan bowed humbly: "Not even one-tenth as good as Master."

Pei Luo was surprised that Xuan Yuanzhan was so humble. Despite his martial arts skills being quite good and the fact that he was supposedly a prince, he didn't have any of the arrogance typical of royalty.

Pei Luo's gaze towards Xuan Yuanzhan immediately softened considerably. She scanned him from head to toe, then nodded with considerable satisfaction: "He's not bad looking either!"

Xuanyuan Zhan glanced at Su Xuening and continued humbly, "Not even one percent of Ning'er's."

Su Xuening blushed under his intense gaze.

"You're quite the charmer." Pei Luo was starting to understand why the girl had brought him along.

This kid is so good at sweet-talking; sooner or later, he'll have won that girl over.

"Eh..." Xuan Yuanzhan wanted to reply modestly, but then he realized he didn't know if the other person was praising him.

"Master, let's not talk about this anymore, help me save people first." Su Xuening spoke up in time, interrupting Pei Luo's assessment of Xuan Yuanzhan.

Su Xuening stepped down from the carriage and lifted the curtain.

Pei Luo frowned when he saw the two women lying side by side in the carriage: "Who are they...?"

“She is my mother, and that is my maid.”

Listening to Su Xuening's introduction, Pei Luo finally saw Mu Junyu's appearance clearly. Sure enough, Su Xuening and Su Yun'an looked somewhat similar to her. Seeing that she was covered in injuries, he hurriedly got into the carriage to check her pulse.

Upon examining Mu Junyu's pulse, Pei Luo's expression turned grave: "The situation is quite serious. Let's go inside first."

The two people in the carriage couldn't move, so Pei Luo had Xuan Yuanzhan drive the carriage to the front of the bamboo house.

Xuan Yuanzhan helped Mu Junyu down from the carriage, and Su Xuening also got off the carriage.

"elder sister."

Su Yun'an ran out of the house and happily rushed over to Su Xuening when he saw her.

Su Xuening reached out and caught him, gently rubbing his head.

Seeing how affectionate the siblings were, Xuan Yuanzhan felt a pang of envy.

I never knew she could be so gentle.

This brother-in-law is his formidable rival! Most importantly, he can't afford to offend him!

Su Yun'an also noticed Xuan Yuanzhan and frowned as she looked at him: "Who is he?"

"Your brother-in-law," Su Xuening introduced casually without giving it much thought.

Xuanyuan Zhan was once again charmed by her introduction.

Out of consideration for his brother-in-law, he decided not to argue with his brother-in-law.

Su Yun'an was somewhat surprised. This was the man her sister was forced to marry. Was he cured? He was tall and slender, and not bad-looking at all. He wasn't as bad as she had imagined!

but……

Seeing that he was holding a woman in his arms, Su Yun'an said unhappily, "Aren't you my brother-in-law? How can you hold another woman?"

Xuanyuan Zhan was amused by the word "brother-in-law" and quickly explained, "She is your mother."

“She…” Upon hearing Xuan Yuanzhan’s words, Su Yun’an immediately felt that the figure of the person he was holding was so familiar. He turned to Su Xuening in shock: “Sister, is it really Mother?”

Su Xuening nodded: "I've found my mother."

"Mother!" Su Yun'an rushed over immediately. Xuan Yuanzhan knew he couldn't see, so he lowered Mu Junyu's arms a little.

Upon seeing the unconscious Mu Junyu, Su Yun'an's eyes suddenly reddened: "What happened to Mother?"
