Chapter 243 – Much Trouble at the Beauty's Door (Part One)

“Huh? Isn’t that Senior Sister Yun from Kun Dao Academy? Why would she stoop to visiting our Yuandao Academy?”

“Look! It seems she’s here for that kid. What’s going on?”

“That kid is really asking for trouble, daring to provoke the Senior Disciple of Kun Dao Academy.”

In an instant, whispers and murmurs erupted all around, with expressions varying among the onlookers.

Some were gloating, certain that a spectacle was about to unfold, while others were baffled, speculating about the connection between Ye Kuang and the Senior Disciple of Kun Dao Academy.

Yun Mengshu was none other than the Senior Disciple of Kun Dao Academy.

She was also one of the egrets startled when Ye Kuang fell into the Deep Pool.

“You little brat, you’ve been hiding quite well. So you’re a Disciple of Yuandao Academy. But if you often walk by the river, how can you avoid getting your shoes wet? Let’s see where you can run today!” Yun Mengshu said coldly.

Hearing her voice, Ye Kuang abruptly stood up, clearly recognizing who she was.

Scenes from that day flashed through his mind—he had been struck on the head by a pebble, leaving him bloodied.

Truly, when enemies meet, their eyes blaze with hatred!

Ye Kuang immediately roared with fury, “So it’s you, you old hag! I’ve searched high and low for you, and now…”

He suddenly stumbled over his words.

But to the crowd, his words were like a thunderclap, leaving them utterly stunned!

They stared at him as if he were a fool, thinking to themselves: This kid really dares to say anything! Does he not know what the term “old hag” means to Yun Mengshu?

Of course, there were also some lewd-minded individuals who linked audacity with passion, conjuring up scenes unfit for children.

“Could it be that this kid did something so outrageous that even Senior Sister Yun had to come looking for him…”

At these words, the crowd’s expressions shifted, and they looked at the speaker as if he were an idiot.

Little did they know, when everyone saw who had spoken, they fell silent like mute iron roosters, showing clear apprehension before pretending they hadn’t heard a thing.

It was both ridiculous and laughable.

Even Ye Kuang couldn’t help but turn his head, and his eyes inadvertently met the speaker’s.

The man was exceptionally handsome, one in ten thousand.

Ye Kuang could tell at a glance that this guy was different—he had a sharp, cunning face but surprisingly intelligent, albeit somewhat shifty, eyes. He looked… slightly sleazy.

“No, that day…” Ye Kuang hurriedly tried to explain.

But before he could finish, he was abruptly cut off by an angry shout.

“Shut your mouth!”

The one who spoke was none other than Yun Mengshu, her face dark with rage!

At that moment, her fiery gaze seemed ready to annihilate anyone who had heard those words. Trembling with anger, she appeared to be at her limit.

Not only did Yun Mengshu radiate killing intent, but her expression was equally icy as she glared at the sharp-faced man. “Hu Chai, do you think just because you have your grandfather backing you, I can’t do anything to you?”

Hearing this, Hu Chai stepped forward from the crowd, performing an elegant gentleman’s bow as he replied with a smile, “Senior Sister Yun, this is like the river god offending the Dragon King—how could I, your humble junior, dare to trouble you? It’s enough that I’ve troubled myself.”At this point, Hu Chai seemed utterly shameless as he strode forward, actually taking a deep, public whiff of fragrance right then and there.

If such rogue nature were to be graded by Rank, Hu Chai would undoubtedly be unmatched among men.

But who would have thought that from both sides of Yun Mengshu emerged five peers like orioles singing amid willows, one after another shielding her with their bodies.

“Hu Chai, how dare you act so recklessly!”

“Senior Sister Huang, you smell quite delightful too.”

“You…”

Seeing this, Yun Mengshu seemed to have completely forgotten her original purpose for coming. She glared with her almond-shaped phoenix eyes and scolded sharply, “Hu Chai, what exactly do you want? I’m not here to cause trouble today, so please…”

As she spoke, Yun Mengshu was clearly on the verge of exploding, then coldly enunciated each word: “Get… out… of… my… way!”

Little did she know, upon hearing this, even Hu Chai had to admit that having powerful backing made one bold. He took a deep breath and appeared completely unruffled: “Such fragrant words, intoxicating to hear, surrounded by tulips, truly making one unable to resist…”

Hearing this, Yun Mengshu finally reached her limit. Overwhelmed by anger, she fiercely drew her sword!

Shing!

The crisp, lingering sound reverberated, making everyone present break out in goosebumps.

Even someone as bold as Hu Chai couldn’t help but retreat several steps.

It then became apparent that Hu Chai’s movement speed was significantly faster than anyone else’s.

“Senior Sister Yun, this doesn’t seem like the proper place for deep conversation. I’ll surely pay you a visit another day. Well… I have matters to attend to now, so I’ll take my leave.”

Before his words faded, Hu Chai transformed into a streak of afterimage and fled through the door as if running for his life.

The speed at which this happened was truly astonishing.

“Ugh, that lecher is still as vulgar and shameless as ever.”

“Don’t mention him. Just talking about him makes me feel sick.”

“Eldest Senior Sister, what do you think…”

With the nuisance finally gone, Yun Mengshu calmed herself. Then, fixing her phoenix eyes on the prime culprit of this scene, she commanded in an authoritative tone: “You, come with me!”

Surprisingly, Ye Kuang actually complied.

Long after he and Yun Mengshu’s group of six women had departed, the entire scene erupted in chaos.

It could be said that rumors flew thick and fast, spreading from one to ten, ten to a hundred, and who knows how far beyond.

Meanwhile, in a cluster of woods.

Ye Kuang found himself surrounded by Yun Mengshu and her five companions.

Suddenly, they all drew their swords simultaneously!

Shing! Shing! Shing!

Uniform fluorescent glows circulated around six sharp sword blades.

“I must say, you’ve got some nerve, kid. But you never should have committed such despicable acts.”

“Running into us sisters today is your bad luck.”

“Why waste words on him? This matter has probably spread already. Let’s eliminate him now to avoid complications later…”

Indeed, regardless of their varied comments, all six women radiated killing intent.

Meanwhile, Ye Kuang seemed unaware of the severity of the situation. Since losing his true self-awareness, he had developed a distorted understanding of human ethics.

So when the six women revealed their murderous intent, he responded with equally ferocious eyes.

In his view, there might only be one woman in this world who could be considered good.

That was his sister, Xiao Lingwei!At this point, it could not be said that the misunderstanding was not growing increasingly larger, escalating rapidly until both sides were glaring at each other with Life-Death intent.

It could also be said that any further explanation would undoubtedly be seen as an excuse at this moment.

The six women clearly had no intention of listening to any explanation from Ye Kuang, and even he himself did not understand what constituted an explanation, nor would he attempt to explain…
