Chapter 190: Chapter 190 Pikachu, You’ve Made Me Another Enemy

"What nonsense are you spouting!"

As soon as these words were out, it was as if mountains were crumbling and the earth was splitting apart.

Gong Tianao’s eyes instantly filled with red veins.

He glared at Lin Fan with hatred.

"Hey, you’d better watch your tone. I’m not some naive, virtuous person," Lin Fan warned.

Zhao Jiaqi raised her hand.

The Soft Sword at her waist sprang out like a viper.

And pointed directly at Gong Tianao.

"Is this the attitude of someone from Dragon Fang?"

Gu Changqing, the bodyguard standing nearby, quickly stepped in front of his young master.

He looked at Zhao Jiaqi with indifference.

The difference in their strengths was immediately apparent.

But Zhao Jiaqi had the backing of Dragon Fang.

So he didn’t dare to act rashly.

"That’s right, this is my attitude. If you’re not satisfied, you can complain about me, but right now don’t block the way of someone trying to save a life."

Zhao Jiaqi looked defiantly at Gong Tianao, who was red-faced with anger.

The Soft Sword in her hand was charged with a killing intent.

"Pikachu, you’re digging me a hole here!" Lin Fan said in a low voice beside Zhao Jiaqi’s ear.

It was already a matter of saving a life, yet she had to bring up past issues.

This was like pushing him to the opposing side of the Gong Family.

"Saving a life is a matter of the heart. This guy knew that Miss Shangguan was heading to Sanhe Hall for revenge, yet he waited at Medicine King House with his bodyguards. Can’t you see? It’s clear he didn’t want to offend the people from Woguo. Now that he sees her injured, he’s only concerned about protecting her so-called chastity and reputation, completely disregarding her life. This kind of man is definitely a selfish phoenix man, and we can’t let him have his way," Zhao Jiaqi analyzed bluntly.

Zhao Jiaqi could see right through him.

From beginning to end, he cared not for Shangguan Min Yue’s life or death.

But for his own gains and losses.

"So you’re sacrificing me, is that it? Don’t you know the Gong Family is even more powerful than the Shangguan Family? You’ve just made me a huge enemy, how very selfless of you!" Lin Fan realized.

She really was willing to use him as a human shield.

"You can’t say it like that. You’ve seen such private parts of her, so you have to take responsibility. I’m a fair person, I’m not forcing you to marry her, but at the very least, you should help her fend off scumbags. And don’t worry, as long as I’m in Jiangning, they won’t dare to make a move," Zhao Jiaqi said with a sly smile.

"How long can you stay?" Lin Fan asked.

"Three days!" Zhao Jiaqi replied.

"You can leave right now." Lin Fan rolled his eyes at her.

But to save a person, what was the Gong Family to him.

"Alright, now you can go in and save her. If anyone dares to make a move, I’ll execute them on the spot for endangering another person’s life!" Zhao Jiaqi turned her head again and looked at Gong Tianao across from her.

The Soft Sword in her hand was certainly not just for show.

"You wouldn’t dare!"

Seeing Lin Fan about to carry Shangguan Min Yue away, Gong Tianao roared loudly.

If Lin Fan were to go inside, wouldn’t that mean all would be revealed?

"Did you stuff chicken feathers in your ears? Can’t you hear that Dragon Fang is the one who asked me to go? If you have the guts, come at me," Lin Fan retorted, his lips twitching.

His main tactic was to bluff using Dragon Fang’s name.

"Quick, stop him for me!" Gong Tianao was itching with rage.

He hurriedly instructed Gu Changqing.

"Master, this..." Gu Changqing hesitated as well.

If he were to obstruct, first, he would offend Dragon Fang.

Second, it might delay Shangguan Min Yue’s treatment.

"What, you dare disobey my orders? I don’t care if it’s Dragon Fang or Dog Fang, what I say goes today!" Gong Tianao demanded stubbornly.

He refused to allow another man to gaze upon the body of his future bride.

"Yes!" Gu Changqing had no choice but to agree reluctantly.

He leaped over Zhao Jiaqi’s head like a roc taking flight.

And lunged towards Lin Fan.

"If you leave, I’ll slaughter this kid!" Zhao Jiaqi didn’t attempt to chase.

With a flick of his wrist, the Soft Sword shot forth.

It aimed straight for Gong Tianao.

"What are you trying to do... This is no joke!"

He only felt a pain on his shoulder, as fresh blood spurted out.

Gong Tianao screamed in pain.

"Old lady has no jokes to crack with a mommy’s boy like you. Since you want to delay the treatment, that’s tantamount to abetting murder, so I’ll slaughter you first!"

Zhao Jiaqi snorted coldly.

The Soft Sword once again wound towards his throat.

"Young Master!"

True enough, Gu Changqing could only give up on stopping Lin Fan.

He turned to rescue Gong Tianao.

He swung out a palm, forcing Zhao Jiaqi to retreat.

"If you dare to come over again, I guarantee the next time I’ll surely pierce your throat with one strike."

Zhao Jiaqi, who deliberately slowed down the pace, held the Soft Sword in her hand smugly.

Killing was not the objective; stopping them was what truly mattered.

"Do you really have to oppose me? The Gong Family is not one to be trifled with!"

Gong Tianao, enraged and humiliated, growled through gritted teeth.

"Hard to mess with? Then I particularly want to mess with you. Let’s see if you dare to touch me!"

Zhao Jiaqi looked at Gong Tianao fearlessly.

The leader of the Dragon Tooth, that was not a person one could offend just because of family background.

"Gu Changqing, kill him for me, and I’ll take responsibility even if the sky falls down!"

Gong Tianao’s eyes were almost bleeding.

Once these words were said, the whole scene fell silent.

Even Lin Fan stopped in his tracks and turned around with a smile.

"To kill someone from Dragon Tooth, is your Gong Family prepared for extermination?"

"Young Master, don’t speak nonsense!"

Gu Changqing’s expression changed as he quickly intervened.

He had just bragged and was shut down, not daring to speak.

People from Dragon Tooth, they were official family members.

Nobody could afford to offend them. Not to mention killing her, even injuring her was something the Gong Family couldn’t bear the consequences for.

"But... but we can’t just stand by and watch Min Yue lose her chastity!"

Gong Tianao clenched his fists.

Just the sight of Lin Fan holding her had already infuriated him.

If it went further, and clothes were removed,

Wouldn’t he have suffered a major loss then?

"You old-fashioned, selfish fiend, the more I see you, the more I can’t stand you. As long as I am here today, I want to see who dares to meddle in this matter!"

Zhao Jiaqi, with her arms crossed, stood in the middle of the road.

She did not care about any notions of chastity.

Saving a life was the top priority.

"Well then, I insist on meddling?"

Suddenly, a loud voice came from a distance.

Following which, a vigorous man in his fifties briskly entered Medicine King House.

The tall figure revealed he was a martial arts expert at a glance.

A pair of tiger-like eyes shined with robust luster.

"And who might you be?"

Zhao Jiaqi eyed the newcomer with skepticism.

Today, Medicine King House was indeed overly lively.

"I am Shangguan Min Yue’s father, Shangguan Qingyun. Now, do I have the right to manage this or not?"

With a dark face, Shangguan Qingyun stepped closer to Zhao Jiaqi.

Seeing him arrive, Gong Tianao quickly approached,

Finally releasing his pent-up grievances.

"Uncle Qingyun, I’m glad you’re here. This brat intends to outrage Min Yue’s modesty, and Dragon Tooth is stopping us; you must intervene!"

"Nonsense! Shangguan Min Yue is clearly affected by the Five Poison Palm and needs urgent treatment. Yet, this antiquated fool insists on spouting nonsense about chastity. As a healer, compassion is paramount, besides, it’s detoxification, not the consummation of a marriage!"

Zhao Jiaqi urgently tried to explain.

"Uncle Qingyun, life and death are trivial, but losing chastity is grave. If anything should happen to Min Yue, I am willing to place her ancestral tablet in the Gong Family shrine and treat her as my lawful wife. However, if she loses her chastity, it would be an insult to the Gong Family, and I, Gong Tianao, will never accept that!"

Gong Tianao tightened his fists, veins bulging on his forehead.

"Shut your damned mouth, I curse your ancestors for eighteen generations... Are you even speaking like a human being?"

Zhao Jiaqi was once again dumbfounded.

Furiously glaring at Gong Tianao.

But before she could finish, Shangguan Qingyun interrupted her with a wave of his hand.

"Miss, I know you are a Dragon Tooth member, but domestic matters are hard for an official to adjudicate. As Min Yue’s father, I have the right to ask you to cease rescue efforts. Her life and death have nothing to do with Dragon Tooth — please release her immediately!"
