Chapter 714B – A Great Mess
Si Jia caught up to Yun Die and apologized once more. Seeing her calm expression, she bitterly smiled inside. Even she had been dragged down by that bastard Dou Zhan. They had formed a friendship after working together for these past few days, but now nothing was left of that.
“Miss Si Jia, as long as your cousin doesn’t pester me anymore, I will pretend that nothing happened today.” Yun Die slightly bowed. She pushed open the courtyard doors and walked in.
Si Jia sighed, “Aiya!”
When the doors closed, she turned and left.
Although she loathed Dou Zhan to the extreme, she had no choice but to look for him again.
This damned bastard!
There were countless arrogant young masters in this world, and Yun Die had seen more than one or two of them. The beautiful looks she was born with had provoked a great deal of trouble for her in her life.
So while she was a little angry, she didn’t place it in her heart.
She combed her hair and washed up. After switching to a new dress, Yun Die pushed open the door and walked out of her room. But then, her complexion changed. She calmly took several steps forward and said, “Who’s there!”
She turned and saw a shadow in the corner.
“Hehe, Miss Yun Die has sharp senses. My young master has fallen in love with you at first sight, so please take a trip with me.”
Hu –
A shadow flew out, rushing at her.
Yun Die raised a hand and slammed it against a button on the wall. A piercing alarm suddenly rang out. The black shadow paused before angrily shouting, “Consider yourself fortunate today. You won’t be so lucky next time!”
Whoosh –
The black figure flew away, disappearing into the shadows.
Soon, a large number of Hidden Fog Sect guards surrounded Yun Die’s residence in three circles.
Si Jia had just left Dou Zhan’s dwelling. Before she could even relax, she heard the sound of alarms and her heart leapt into her throat.
When she rushed over, she just happened to see Yun Die rush out from the crowd of guards. She walked forward and hurriedly said, “Miss Yun Die, what happened?”
Yun Die said, “You should ask your cousin about it instead.”
Si Jia cried out in alarm. “What? It’s related to him?” Her mind was flustered and she anxiously said, “Is this some misunderstanding? I just came out from Dou Zhan’s residence and he promised me that he wouldn’t disturb you again.”
Yun Die was expressionless. “Miss Si Jia is saying that I am falsely accusing him? With something like this happening, I should ask teacher to help me uphold justice.”
“Please wait!” Si Jia bitterly smiled, “Miss Yun Die, that is not what I’m trying to say.”
Yun Die maintained a cold and unmoved expression.
Si Jia clenched her teeth, “Miss Yun Die, please give me some time. I will make sure that the Hidden Fog Sect gives you a confession for this!”
Yun Die looked at her. After a long time, she slowly nodded and said, “Alright.”
Her thoughts raced. If this matter couldn’t be resolved, then perhaps she could revise the treatment plan that she gave to the Hidden Fog Sect a little.
…
Dou Zhan’s complexion was pale and his eyes were filled with harsh cruelty. What in the world was happening? He hadn’t even eaten the chicken and yet he was covered with feathers!
“Sixth Uncle, just what happened today? What did you do?”
“Young master, I vow to the heavens that this has nothing to do with me!” Sixth Uncle had an aggrieved expression. “I had just inquired about Miss Yun Die’s residence and before I did anything else, the alarm had been sounded.
“Young master, think about it. From when you gave me an order to the moment the alarm sounded, it was only a short period of time. It’s impossible for me to have done anything!”
Dou Zhan silently calculated the time. If he didn’t know the location of Yun Die’s residence ahead of time, it would take some time to find her. Sixth Uncle really didn’t have sufficient time to do anything.
Then who was it?
Suddenly, Dou Zhan’s eyes flew open. He sharply said, “Sixth Uncle, do you think that girl is putting on a show and deliberately trying to cause trouble for me?”
Sixth Uncle sucked in a breath of cold air. “Young master, are you saying that Miss Yun Die is retaliating against you?”
Dou Zhan said without expression, “Then what else can it be? Besides that, I really cannot think of any other possibility.” He paced back and forth. “Interesting, too interesting. It has always been me stirring up trouble, but this time someone made the first move to attack me.”
Sixth Uncle bowed, “Young master, what should we do now?”
“Don’t do anything.” Dou Zhan coldly sneered. “With my status, as long as there is no evidence, who dares to touch me? Young girl, if you have any other methods then come and try me!”
…
But soon, Dou Zhan couldn’t laugh anymore. The final result was soon determined – the Hidden Fog sect asked him to leave. In other words, he, Dou Zhan, was being chased out.
Elder Si strode in with a frown on his face. The Dou Family cultivators quickly bowed, “Greetings, great uncle!”
“Rise.” Seeing the motionless Dou Zhan sitting on the sofa, Elder Si darkly sighed. “Dou Zhan, don’t be so angry. It was uncle that wronged you. I will make sure to compensate you in the future.”
Dou Zhan sneered, “Uncle, you speak too seriously. I am just a junior, so if you want to chase me out then you can chase me out. How could I dare complain? But, what I don’t understand is where these Hidden Fog Sect people get their courage from. Aren’t they scared that my family will be angered?”
Elder Si bitterly smiled. “Be obedient and don’t add to the chaos!” He hesitated for a moment before saying, “You know about the Hidden Fog Sect’s dark star ice serpent, right? It suffered an incident some time ago and is currently being treated. And Miss Yun Die’s teacher Ning Qin is the only person who can help it recover.”
Dou Zhan’s eyebrows flew up. “A beast trainer?” This status might be noble and high in the eyes of others, but it wasn’t even a dog fart to him. This was the reason he had been chased out? It was simply ridiculous!
Elder Si furrowed his eyebrows together. “Dou Zhan, Ning Qin is not an ordinary beast trainer. He absolutely possesses genuine grandmaster level strength. Even your father has to maintain a certain politeness towards him.
“Alright, don’t be angry anymore. Take your people and leave. Since I promised you compensation, I will definitely honor it!”
Grandmaster level beast trainer…
Dou Zhan secretly cursed him bad luck. No wonder that young girl had been so confident about herself and even dared to frame him. But if he left like this, where would his face be? He would be mocked and ridiculed by Si Jia for the rest of his life!
“Uncle, I can leave, but not today. Don’t be so anxious. I will leave early tomorrow morning. As long as you allow this, you don’t need to compensate me with anything.”
Elder Si pointed a finger, “You brat! Fine, I will agree. Just remember the promise you made. Tomorrow morning I will personally escort you away.
“Alright. You’ve messed around enough today. Rest soon.”
To have his nephew chased away wasn’t anything to brag about. But, Dou Zhan’s reputation was just far too terrible.
Even if Yun Die didn’t have concrete evidence, she was a beautiful young girl. Why would she falsely accuse you?
With just a quick summary of the situation, everyone knew who to trust. Moreover, the Hidden Fog Sect was asking for help from others.
Shaking his head, Elder Si turned to leave.
Bang –
An exquisite teacup was smashed into the ground. Dou Zhan’s fat face flushed red, “Yun Die, just you wait! This isn’t over yet!”
But no matter how angry young master Dou was, it was difficult for him to fight back for a time. Before the storm even began, it was about to fade away.
On that day, when the night was at its deepest dark, there was a loud, earth-shaking bang that could be heard throughout the entire Hidden Fog Sect.
“The young master was killed!”
With a panic-stricken scream, a personal guard slumped to the ground, all the blood draining from his face.
This normally arrogant and abusive young master had been killed as he was sleeping on his bed. A terrifying strength had shattered his body, and white and red goo splattered out all around him. He didn’t even have a complete corpse left behind.
The Hidden Fog Sect’s high level figures rushed over as soon as they could. When they saw the broken body on the bed, their faces paled.
Things had really become a big mess now!
..
Yun Die was awakened by the sounds of chaos all around her. She shrugged on her clothes and walked over to the window. When she pulled open the curtains she could see that the illuminating array formations outside had all been turned on and numerous people were running around.
Today, she had dealt with the Hidden Fog Sect for a long time. Because she was exhausted she had decided not to return to the laboratory. Just as she went to sleep, she was soon awakened by the noise outside.
What was going on? The Hidden Fog Sect had been really lively as of late!
Yun Die thought with a little disdain. But, she never imagined that the great storm that blew up tonight would soon envelop her.
The doorbell soon rang. Yun Die tidied her clothes and controlled the array formation to open the front doors. Si Jia was the first to rush in. When she saw Yun Die’s clothes intact, she let out a sigh of relief.
Behind her were a large number of Hidden Fog Sect cultivators. Many of the great figures she had seen in the hall were here.
Elder Si’s complexion was dark. His twitching eyebrows indicated just how terrible his current mood was. He stepped forward and asked, “Miss Yun Die, were you in your room all night? You never left?”
Yun Die furrowed her eyebrows. “That’s right.” She glanced around at everyone. “You have come so late at night, just what is the reason for this?”
“It was you, you were the one who killed my young master!” Sixth Uncle angrily roared. His thin and small appearance was normally not noticeable, but right now he became the focus of attention.
Yun Die paled, “Dou Zhan died?”
That wretched young master had been murdered!
After a brief shock, she soon responded. She frowned and said, “Since you all came here, could it be that you think I killed him?”
“Besides you, who has the motive to kill my young master!?” Sixth Uncle clenched his jaws, “He did make a mistake, but that isn’t a crime worthy of death! You vicious temptress!”
Yun Die said without expression, “I am not involved in his murder. If you continue to slander me, don’t blame me for being impolite.”
Elder Si lifted a hand and held back the raging Sixth Uncle. “Miss Yun Die, I also don’t believe that you were the one who killed him, but as the Dou Family people say, you are the most suspicious. Moreover, Old Six here saw the killer’s back – it was a woman.”
Yun Die was flustered. Her first thought was that the Hidden Fog Sect was trying to falsely accuse her. But, she soon calmed down.
The current her was no longer that young cultivator from Midmorning City who had no one to depend on. She was her teacher’s disciple. Even when facing the Hidden Fog Sect, she could do so fearlessly and calmly.
Elder Si sensed Yun Die’s panic and his eyes turned cold. Could this young woman really be that murderer? But soon, he discovered that Yun Die calmed down. This wasn’t an act, but was a true tranquility that came from the heart.
“I will say it again. I have nothing to do with his death. Just like you all said today, everything depends on evidence.”
As soon as she said this, Elder Si and the others from the Hidden Fog Sect felt their faces heat up.
Who knew that the words they told this young girl in the morning would be used to kick them at night?
