A dark and windy night.
Two furtive figures sneaked into the city lord's mansion and made their way towards the treasure vault.
The vault was heavily guarded, and the two men crouching at a distance dared not advance rashly.
One of them whispered:
“Brother Ye Tian, I’ll distract them. Even if I get caught, Mother won’t do anything to me.”
Be extremely careful!
Yu Ruoer deliberately revealed her whereabouts, attracting a lot of firepower, which made it easier for another person to act.
In an instant, the city lord's mansion was brightly lit and bustling with activity.
However, the excitement didn't last long before things calmed down, as the two thieves had already been caught.
Yu Ruoer accidentally stepped into a trap, injuring her legs and feet, her face filled with disbelief.
When did so many traps appear in the manor?
Soon she saw Ye Tian being dragged out, bound hand and foot by a large net, with blood still flowing from his body.
She was heartbroken and, disregarding everything, struggled to rush in that direction.
"What have you done to Brother Ye Tian?! Let him go! Let me go!"
Ji Ruonan, who was in charge of guarding the treasure vault, grabbed her.
"Junior sister, don't be silly! When Master comes, apologize properly. Say you were forced or tricked, put all the blame on that kid."
Master was truly a genius; he predicted that the thief would return to steal again, and he really did.
But since this junior sister is also fooling around, she'll probably have to be punished again.
She genuinely wanted to help her junior sister.
"I did nothing wrong! Why should I apologize? I just wanted to help my friend. I can't possibly put all the blame on Brother Ye Tian!? Fourth Senior Sister, let me go!"
Li Ruonan sighed. If he's so stubborn, then he'll just have to wait to be punished.
Upon receiving the news, Yu Shuang arrived at the scene at a leisurely pace. Seeing the miserable state of the two petty thieves, she sneered.
Just a casual gesture.
"Chop him up."
He threatened to kill him again at the slightest disagreement. Ye Tian's eyes were filled with anger. What grudge did he hold against him?
All I care about are your few treasures.
Once I resolve my meridian issues and soar to new heights, I will plunder your treasure trove and make you weep!
They even want to kidnap your precious daughter right in front of you, to make you furious!
He was making threats in his mind while secretly preparing his trump card for survival.
Without saying a word, Li Ruonan drew her sword and went to slash.
Her current cultivation method was specially modified for her by her master, and she has an absolute sense of worship and reverence for her master.
The incident involving her senior brother made her realize the true meaning of not disobeying one's master's orders.
In short, whatever the master says goes.
Yu Ruoer's eyes widened in horror: "No—!"
If Ye Tian's brother dies, she will never let the murderer get away with it! She will never forgive that heartless mother!
The way she looked at Yu Shuang at that moment was as if she were looking at an enemy.
However, the scene she imagined did not happen. Ye Tian suddenly unleashed a powerful energy, sending his fourth senior sister flying.
After the smoke cleared, Ye Tian was nowhere to be seen.
Great! Brother Ye Tian has escaped!
Yu Shuang casually took her four disciples, who had been knocked away by the shockwave, with her.
She hadn't held out much hope anyway; how could the male lead die so easily? If he escaped, so be it.
As for that rebellious daughter, she was dealt with according to the rules: thirty lashes, sent to the Cliff of Repentance, and made to reflect on her mistakes for another three months.
This time, no one pleaded for the foolish junior sister.
Li Ruonan suffered some internal injuries, and Yu Shuang specially gave her a healing medicine so she could go back and recuperate.
When she saw the familiar bottle and the familiar pills, her heart skipped a beat—
She had only ever seen, never tasted, the miraculous healing medicine bestowed by the immortal physician.
She hurriedly declined, saying, "This disciple has only minor internal injuries; I can recover on my own. It's too much trouble to waste time... um..."
"A teacher's orders must not be disobeyed."
Before she could finish speaking, she was forced to eat a pill, and she was immediately moved to tears.
Master…
Sigh, if I had known that I couldn't disobey my master's orders, I should have obediently accepted it and saved it for a crucial moment.
What a waste of resources...
"Here you go."
Suddenly, a bottle appeared in her hand, and she was hit again.
Huh? ...You gave her the whole bottle!?
Li Ruonan was so happy she almost fainted.
Not long after, the city lord's mansion announced that the city lord would set up nine trials to select one person from thirteen inner disciples to succeed as the next city lord of Moyu City.
The news sent shockwaves through the entire city of Moyu.
Since breaking free from the shackles of the dynasty, the successive city lords of Moyu City have all been surnamed Yu. Over time, everyone has come to accept that this place belongs to the Yu family.
I must say, Lord Yu is truly magnanimous!
Upon hearing this news, Yu Ruoer at the Cliff of Contemplation was so enraged that she went mad.
"Ah—how could this be!? How could Mother possibly let an outsider inherit Moyu City!?"
Moyu City belongs to the Yu family! It will be hers in the future…
Waaaaah… Mother, how could you do this to me? I'm so disappointed in you…
Brother Ye Tian, why haven't you come to rescue me yet? I want to go far away with you and never come back.
Waaaaah...
"Little crybaby, don't be sad. I will definitely help you get back what belongs to you."
Yu Ruoer looked up, her face filled with surprise, and rushed over.
...
In a residential house within the city, the eldest disciple, Song Chuanfeng, also looked on incredulously.
Master actually has this plan, what will happen to Ruo'er? Ruo'er must be very sad right now.
I heard that Ruo'er broke into the city lord's mansion with that wild boy again yesterday and is now being imprisoned on the Cliff of Contemplation.
This kind of news has come out again today; Ruo'er must be going through a lot of pain.
No, he had to go to the Cliff of Contemplation to be with Ruo'er.
