Chapter 176: Vicious Female Supporting Character vs. Childless Emperor 20
Sand and rocks were flying in the small garden, the rockery collapsed to the ground, and the winding stream was cut off, splashing water as high as a person.
The two fought fiercely. The female hero's sword was placed on Ji Yun'an's sword. The two finally stopped. Ji Yun'an took a step back. The bluestone slabs cracked inch by inch. He barely managed to stabilize his body.
"Mei Lingshuang! I have checked you out, you are the young master of Meiling Villa. The sword in your hand is the Star-Moon Sword. Last time, I didn't bring the sword with me, and you stole the Tianshan Snow Lotus. Today is different. I will definitely beat you down and avenge you!"
Mei Lingshuang's face was expressionless, but beads of cold sweat oozed from her forehead. Last time, she took a risk and risked her life to pick the Tianshan Snow Lotus first. She was also hit on the chest and has not yet fully recovered.
She was only paying attention to the Tianshan Snow Lotus at the time. In addition, it was already late at night. The man had an untidy beard and was wearing tattered clothes. She didn't pay any attention to what he looked like.
After today's fight, she was sure that it was this person who hurt her.
"Things without an owner belong to whoever picks them. You don't have the ability to pick them, so I picked them first and they are naturally mine."
Ji Yun'an used his internal strength to lift the Star-Moon Sword that was pressing on his head, and stabbed it towards Mei Lingshuang's face.
"I was about to pick it, but you stepped on my back and snatched my things. You still think you're right!"
Mei Lingshuang tapped her toes to avoid the sword. "Who told you to dawdle? Besides, I gave you the money, so you didn't work in vain. I was waiting for Tianshan Snow Lotus to save my life, and I won't pursue the matter after you hit me with a palm. What else do you want?"
Ji Yunhuan looked up at the two people who had already reached the roof. She remembered that her second brother once said that he would pick a Tianshan Snow Lotus for her as a birthday gift, but in the end he only gave her a Ganoderma lucidum.
It turned out that it was taken away by a female hero.
My second brother has always been very proud and has never lost a fight. If he fails once, he will probably remember it for the rest of his life.
Ji Yun'an threw out a silver ingot, "I'll give it back to you! I'm not short of money, I want that Tianshan Snow Lotus! If you apologize to me again, I'll forgive you."
The silver shot out at a very fast speed, and its power was comparable to that of a hidden weapon. Mei Lingshuang jumped onto another roof, and the silver shot hit the osmanthus tree in the yard and embedded itself deeply into it.
“Where are you escaping to? Watch out!” Ji Yun’an pounced over.
Mei Lingshuang sneered, "You are defeated. Even with a sword, you can't beat me."

The two people were fighting fiercely on the roof, and Shangguan Ruoxue finally had a chance to catch her breath.
She was affected by the sword energy and spat out a mouthful of blood. Her face turned as pale as paper, but she was still able to stand up and even had the strength to yell at Ji Yunhuan.
"Cousin, you actually watched me die without helping me? Someone wanted to kill me, you are very proud, right? Are you wishing I would die right now? If I die, Brother Haochang will be yours. You can get Brother Haochang's body, but you will never get his heart!"
Ji Yunhuan touched Xizi, who was meowing in his arms, and said calmly, "Be good, Xizi, don't argue with a fool. Only a fool like her would treat Long Haochang as a treasure."
Shangguan Ruoxue wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, her face sad, and she staggered towards Ji Yunhuan, "Don't pretend, everyone in the capital knows that you are obsessed with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so you hate me and want me to die!"
"Luckily, my second cousin is here. He is a chivalrous man who couldn't bear to see me in trouble. I will remember his kindness for the rest of my life."
Ji Yunhuan suddenly became alert. Any man who got close to Shangguan Ruoxue would end up badly. This was what happened to her eldest brother in her previous life, and she didn't want her second brother to suffer the same fate.
"Don't dream. Second brother and this heroine have a special affinity. I'm not here to help you. You'd better stay away from Second brother, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"
Shangguan Ruoxue insisted on staying closer to her second cousin. Her second cousin was still fighting with others outside. How could she be a coward and hide here and not go out?
"You don't care about your second cousin at all. I'm also his sister. Why should I stay away from him? Why do you monopolize your second cousin?"
Shangguan Ruoxue rushed out after she finished speaking, her tears streaming down her face. "Second cousin, be careful! Ah! Why are you bleeding? You're injured, it's all Xue'er's fault. Cousin, don't worry about Xue'er, just go away..."
Ji Yun'an was fighting happily, it had been a long time since he had had such a satisfying fight. Suddenly, he heard the sweet voice of "Second Cousin", and he got goose bumps all over his body.
When masters fight, the slightest flaw will be magnified infinitely.
Mei Lingshuang seized the opportunity, broke Ji Yun'an's entanglement with a sword, turned around and stabbed towards Shangguan Ruoxue!
Shangguan Ruoxue let out an ear-piercing scream and turned and ran away.

Such a big commotion in the front yard naturally alarmed the old lady in the backyard.
The old lady knew that Shangguan Ruoxue was chased all the way to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she clamored to come to the front yard to rescue her.
Prime Minister Ji was not at home, and the head steward was only a servant, so he could not force the old lady out, so the old lady was pushed out in a wheelchair.
The fight was fierce in the front yard. No matter how the old lady scolded them, the maids and nannies were unwilling to come to the front yard to die. The old lady gritted her teeth and pushed her wheelchair through the corridor.
"Xue'er, where are you? Are you okay? This huge Prime Minister's Mansion is full of cowards who only know how to hide. If I die in the hands of thieves, I wonder how you will explain to the master!"
The guards had already retreated to the corridor, leaving the front yard to the second young master to perform, and now they had no choice but to follow the old lady.
If anything happened to the old lady, they would definitely be in trouble.
Shangguan Ruoxue heard the familiar voice and immediately ran towards the old lady, shouting, "Old lady, help me!"
The old lady pushed the wheelchair faster and reached out to take Shangguan Ruoxue. "Don't be afraid, Xue'er. Grandma is here and will definitely not let anything happen to you."
"What are you still standing there for? Are you so scared by a mere thief? Come on, everyone. Capture the thief and you will be rewarded handsomely!"
Shangguan Ruoxue threw herself into the old lady's arms, and the guards were forced to fight Mei Lingshuang. They were definitely no match for a female knight who could fight the second young master to a draw.
Mei Lingshuang kicked the two guards away and stabbed Shangguan Ruoxue with the sword in her hand!
Time seemed to stop at this moment. Shangguan Ruoxue's body tilted and she fell towards the wheelchair. The old lady's chest was completely exposed to Mei Lingshuang's sword!
Mei Lingshuang cried out inwardly that something was wrong and tried her best to retract her sword. She had been injured in the previous fight, and her tendons and veins were now flowing backwards. She knelt on one knee, and there was a taste of blood in her mouth, which she swallowed back without leaving a trace.
The Star-Moon Sword slid down the old lady's clothes, the gorgeous Shu embroidery was cut by the sword energy, the gold thread broke, the old lady's eyes rolled back, and she fainted from fright.
Mei Lingshuang used the sword in her hand to support herself on the ground, steadied her body, and quickly stood up.
The guards around just surrounded Mei Lingshuang and did not dare to take any action.
Ji Yun'an rushed over and saw that the old lady had just fainted from fright and had no injuries on her body. On the contrary, Mei Lingshuang looked pale and not in good condition.
Although he also didn't like the old lady, she was his elder after all. Mei Lingshuang forcibly retracted the sword and would rather suffer internal injuries than hurt the old lady. Naturally, he had to appreciate this favor.
Ji Yun'an sheathed his sword and bowed to Mei Lingshuang, "Miss Mei, you are so righteous. Today, let's stop here. We will fight again another day. Please go back."
Mei Lingshuang pointed her sword at Shangguan Ruoxue and said, "Kill her and I'll leave. Do you still want to stop me?"
