Chapter 713: Chapter 713: Intimidation - Mo Qingze Gets Caught (2)_1

Having said that, he and Mo Yongfu lifted the door panel, ready to leave Mo Family.

"Hold on!"

Just then, a voice cold to the extreme exploded in the ears of everyone present, startling them to shudder and, unconsciously, stop in their tracks, turning their heads to see the speaker, only to fall into a pair of bottomless, cold-black eyes.

Xiao Ruiyuan looked at Old Man Mo’s family, who were equally shocked, with eyes like those reserved for the dead. He had originally thought this to be a common neighborhood dispute that Yanyan could settle without his intervention, but he had not expected this family to harbor thoughts of retaliation. Even if Yanyan did not fear them, he could not tolerate their actions.

The voice, turbulent with chill, rose again, "What unjust acts do you intend towards the Mo Family? Speak!"

Old Man Mo looked terrified at the owner of the voice, unconsciously releasing his grip on the door panel. The panel, carrying the immobile Mrs. Hong, fell to the ground with a bang, and Mrs. Hong was jolted off, rolling onto the floor. Mo Yongfu wanted to catch her, but it was too late.

The crowd looked at the suddenly speaking Xiao Ruiyuan, not quite understanding why this noble person from Jing City would stand up for the Mo Family, especially when even Young Master Yan, who often visited and had a deep relationship with the Mo Family, had not intervened!

Yan Junyu was not unwilling to intervene. He simply preferred to operate from the shadows, watching those who suffered significant losses because of his schemes frantically search for the mastermind, as he stood openly, relishing the sight.

To deal with such ordinary villagers required no effort, but he habitually enjoyed devising how to deal with these people satisfactorily afterward, never expecting someone to beat him to the punch.

Having the limelight stolen from him, especially before a woman, made Yan Junyu extremely displeased; he stared daggers at Xiao Ruiyuan’s back, wishing he could bore a hole through it.

Chu Heng also watched his cousin helplessly. It was clear his cousin could have simply stood by and let the Mo Family resolve the matter on their own, yet he chose to step in. Had he forgotten that the woman he liked was not one of those fragile girls raised in seclusion?

Even Mo Yan herself had not expected Xiao Ruiyuan to stand up for her family. Looking at his expressionless, unusually cold face, her heart felt warm, and her eyes betrayed the demeanor of a smitten young girl.

She was not afraid of Old Man Mo’s threats and had even thought of a way to resolve the issue with him once and for all. However, no woman would not want to be protected by the man she liked, and she was no exception!

Seeing that Old Man Mo was too scared to speak, Xiao Ruiyuan had no intention of letting him off and again opened his mouth, his cold voice tinged with a hint of murderous intent, "Speak—"

No matter how bold Old Man Mo always was, his previous threats however fierce, he was after all an ordinary farmer, not someone like Xiao Ruiyuan who had faced countless battles and exuded an intense aura of death. How could he compare?

As if the next moment he would be pierced in the throat by those sharp eyes resembling Sharp Swords, Old Man Mo swallowed hard and stammered, "No, there’s no... wrongdoing... I, I didn’t..."

A glint of bloodthirst flashed in Xiao Ruiyuan’s eyes, his voice seemed to come from the deepest ice cave, "You’d better remember what you just said, otherwise—this will be your fate!"

With that, he drew the Sharp Sword from his waist and stabbed at the door panel lying on the ground.

With a muffled thud, the seemingly effortless sword strike caused the sturdy door panel to suffer an immense blow, sending wood chips flying. The solid panel instantly shattered into fine splinters!

Those familiar with martial arts knew only a master with profound Inner Strength could infuse their sword with it and, through the sword tip, deliver such a concealed force to the door panel, causing it to instantly shatter to pieces.
