Chapter 1275: Chapter 1275: Want to take Chenyu away? No way!

——————————————————

PS: Dragon Maiden was previously one of the Elders of Huaxia Sect, but I ended up writing her as a disciple of Golden Crow Manor... Lately, I’ve been writing in a daze, and only now have I spotted this error.

In the future, Dragon Maiden shall be corrected to Xia Chenyu (Xia Chenyu also possesses an Innate Fire Spirit Root). And here, I apologize to all my dear readers!

"I will help you rescue them; Chenyu will follow me when we leave."

In the gaze full of anxious anticipation from the three Stewards Sun Guangyi, Fang Bai spoke indifferently.

"No way!"

"Senior Fang, this..."

"Sigh..."

As soon as Fang Bai uttered these words, Liu Yunling immediately objected, while Sun Guangyi and Li Jingren felt a bitter taste in their hearts.

In the Forest of Myriad Medicines, Fang Bai had already shown his intention to take Xia Chenyu away from Golden Crow Manor, and Xia Chenyu herself had the same thought. Sun Guangyi and Li Jingren had been worrying about this all along, concerned that Fang Bai and Xia Chenyu might thus come into conflict with Golden Crow Manor.

Now hearing Fang Bai bringing up this matter, all Li Guangyi and Li Jingren could do was sigh.

During the journey back to Golden Crow Manor, Li Guangyi and Li Jingren could clearly see the mutual affection between Fang Bai and Xia Chenyu, firm as iron. If Golden Crow Manor tried to forcibly keep Xia Chenyu, they might retain her person, but never her heart.

Although Liu Yunling could tell that Xia Chenyu and Fang Bai shared a special relationship, he thought they were merely good friends, so upon hearing that Fang Bai intended to take Xia Chenyu away, his face changed drastically, and he categorically refused.

Xia Chenyu was a key figure nurtured by Golden Crow Manor. The senior members of the manor had invested a great deal of effort in her, not only providing her with a continuous supply of cultivation resources but also giving her personal instruction on Martial Arts Techniques every once in a while.

Almost everyone believed that if nothing unexpected happened, Xia Chenyu would certainly become one of the Elders of the manor one day, assisting Yuan Qi, the successor to the Manor Master’s position, in presiding over Golden Crow Manor.

And now, Fang Bai actually wanted to take her away—how could Liu Yunling agree to that?

"Heh heh..."

Fang Bai laughed as he looked toward Liu Yunling and asked, "What’s the matter, Steward Liu, do you have an objection?"

Sun Guangyi and Li Jingren repeatedly signaled with their eyes to Liu Yunling, asking him not to act rashly.

Both of them had witnessed Fang Bai’s mighty power on their way back to Golden Crow Manor; his strength was comparable to that of Manor Master Huang Canghai. They held Fang Bai in awe and treated him with respect and courtesy.

But Liu Yunling was meeting Fang Bai for the first time. Although like the other two Stewards, he addressed Fang Bai as "Senior Fang," it was merely superficial politeness. In reality, he held no awe for Fang Bai in his heart.

Moreover, Liu Yunling believed that even if Fang Bai was stronger than himself, he would at most be at the Universe Level high rank, comparable to the manor’s several Elders. With such strength, he still could not do whatever he wanted within Golden Crow Palace Mountain.

Thus, upon hearing Fang Bai set taking Xia Chenyu away with him as a condition for rescuing Yuan Qi, he was immediately filled with dissatisfaction, his face indignant, and he disregarded the warning looks thrown by Sun Guangyi and Li Jingren.

"Do you know how much cultivation resources our Golden Crow Manor has spent on nurturing Chenyu? Do you know how much effort the senior members of our manor have put in to instruct Chenyu in Martial Arts Techniques? Who do you think you are, thinking you can just take Chenyu away casually? Let me tell you: No way!"

Liu Yunling raged in an exasperated and angry voice.

Liu Yunling’s sudden outburst, shouting and yelling, scared Sun Guangyi and Li Jingren who were next to him.

Before returning to Golden Crow Manor, Sun Guangyi and Li Jingren were most worried about Fang Bai insisting on taking Xia Chenyu away. They knew mishandling this matter could lead to a conflict between Fang Bai and Golden Crow Manor. They had initially planned to discuss this issue after Manor Master Huang Canghai finished his seclusion, but they hadn’t expected Fang Bai to bring it up at this time. Liu Yunling, ever impetuous, was instantly enraged.

Sun Guangyi and Li Jingren also had some understanding of Fang Bai’s temperament, knowing that while Fang Bai was low-key and reticent, and easy to talk to, he was certainly not someone who would tolerate being slighted, and Xia Chenyu held an important place in his heart. Liu Yunling’s disrespect towards him would inevitably bring trouble to Golden Crow Manor.

The two cast a glance at Fang Bai and saw his expression remained calm, showing no sign of an imminent outburst. Instead of feeling relieved, their hearts were even more anxious.

"Steward Liu, don’t be impulsive, let’s talk this out slowly..."

"Senior Fang has saved our lives, don’t be like this..."

Sun Guangyi and Li Jingren were anxiously persuading Liu Yunling, then incessantly apologized to Fang Bai, fearing that he would lose his temper and make a scene at Golden Crow Manor.

In terms of strength, the only one in Golden Crow Manor who could contend with Fang Bai was Manor Master Huang Canghai. But Manor Huang was currently in seclusion, extending the life of his son Yuan Qi. If Fang Bai were indeed to get angry, there would be no one to stop him, and they could only watch as he took Xia Chenyu away.

While Sun Guangyi and Li Jingren were appeasing and apologizing, they couldn’t help but blame Liu Yunling in their hearts, criticizing him for impulsively provoking Fang Bai.

Golden Crow Manor was presently facing tremendous external pressure, and if internal strife were to break out as well, beset by troubles both inside and out, the manor could face an imminent disaster.

If it came to that, Liu Yunling would surely become the eternal sinner of Golden Crow Manor.

Sun Guangyi and Li Jingren saw that Fang Bai maintained a smile, seemingly unconcerned by Liu Yunling’s words. But the calmer he was, the more uneasy Sun Guangyi and Li Jingren felt, and they looked to Xia Chenyu as if seeking rescue.

They had once saved Xia Chenyu and brought her back to Golden Crow Manor for shelter. If Xia Chenyu remembered this kindness, she would not stand by idly.

"You don’t have to look at Chenyu."

Fang Bai noticed the panic-stricken faces of Sun Guangyi and Li Jingren and chuckled: "Rest assured, I never intended to bother with such trifles with Steward Liu... However, Steward Liu, you really need to temper that fiery temper of yours, otherwise you’re bound to suffer sooner or later!"

Although Liu Yunling was one of the stewards of Golden Crow Manor and possessed mid-Universe Level strength, in Fang Bai’s eyes, he was no different from an ant. Therefore, Fang Bai couldn’t be bothered to get angry with him. After all, Xia Chenyu is my woman, Fang Bai thought, and if I say I am taking her away, do you think you, a mere steward, can stop me?

"You..."

Liu Yunling saw Fang Bai’s dismissive attitude and contempt, which only infuriated him further. His eyes widened with anger, and he wanted to say something more vicious, but he was sharply interrupted by Sun Guangyi and Li Jingren.

"Steward Liu, no more words!"

"Do you want Golden Crow Manor to fall into an abyss of no return?"

Liu Yunling was angry, but Sun Guangyi and Li Jingren were even more so. What they wanted most at the moment was to cover Liu Yunling’s mouth with their hands and prevent him from speaking, to avoid creating irrevocable mistakes.

"You..."

Liu Yunling might be hot-headed, but he was no fool. He had been momentarily overwhelmed by Fang Bai’s statement about taking Xia Chenyu away, and couldn’t help but lash out. Now being shushed in unison by Sun Guangyi and Li Jingren and seeing their panic-stricken and urgent demeanor as if fearing Fang Bai greatly, he began to understand something.

Given the strength and status of Stewards Sun and Li, not even Golden Crow Manor’s elders could incite such fear in them. Could it be that this Fang Bai was even more powerful than he had imagined?

The elders of Golden Crow Manor were high-ranking Universe Level experts, and those who surpassed that level were at the pinnacle of Universe Level.

That is to say, Fang Bai might possess strength on par with the Manor Master?

Realizing this, Liu Yunling involuntarily took a deep breath, feeling a chill running down his spine.
