My Unrivaled Princess: I Won’t Mess With You

Chapter 97: The Three Elders

Murong Yun and Su Liancheng noticed there were traces of fire everywhere in the village, and half the villagers were wounded to different degrees.

Could it be the Xiao Family? The Xiao Clan?

They had been living incognito for years now! Was it a coincidence that the Gus found out where they had been hiding?

But the Xiaos were never the heartless and cruel type, looting a whole village and trying to harm everyone didn’t seem like their doing.

The elders took them to the most grand hall in the village.

The hall located in the center of the whole village, other houses and halls formed a guard circle around it.

Su Liancheng asked, “Brother Eighth, are we having a meeting here or something?” with that Su Liancheng looked around and twitched his lips.

‘I wonder what exactly had happened to them, Her Highness the Imperial Noble Consort begged Brother Eighth for help, it must be serious. But the elders were being very strategic about this thing, Brother Eighth would have had totally ignored them if they had approached him directly, but he couldn’t turn down Her Highness the Imperial Noble Consort.’

Su Liancheng took a look at Murong Yun and his mind ran wild again, ‘Brother Eighth is no longer the carefree Brother Eighth. he has Luo Qianqian now, it was so hard to watch the two parting with each other in the tavern, I cannot believe Brother Eighth would actually fall in love.’

“It looks like it, why, are you disappointed?” Murong Yun replied and that had dragged Su Liancheng back to reality.

“No, not at all. It’s just I cannot believe the famous Gu Family would be reduced to begging someone for help. Brother Eighth, what do you think? It’s the Xiaos?”

Su Liancheng found it hard to believe it was the Xiaos for they had been trying so hard to hide themselves instead of committing a crime that might give themselves away, plus they had family instructions of staying low profile.

What was more, if the Xiaos really decided to have a payback, they would have had ruined the whole village on their first attack, no way would they launched a second attack.

“What do you think?” Murong Yun threw back the question.

Su Liancheng touched his mask and chuckled, “To be honest, I don’t think so. I think this is someone else’s doing, they are trying to frame the Xiaos. Or maybe this is all the Gus’ doing, they are trying to start some trouble and find out where the Xiaos really are. You know, burning down their own village and hurting their own people to make the Xiaos show up, or they are using this to arouse public indignation, so they can join hands and hunt down the Xiaos.”

Su Liancheng didn’t like the Gus very much for he had read some book saying the elder had sacrificed a person to forge ‘Blood Weeping’ the sword when he was young, and it had been hunting him for years.

And the elder died mysteriously after ‘Blood Weeping’ the sword disappeared, no one could explain why till this day.

The only Gu that he liked was Her Highness the Imperial Noble Consort.

And the Gus had been actively trying to hunt the Xiaos down and marry them by force, it wouldn’t be surprising to find out this was all the Gus’ doing.

Murong Yun darted Su Liancheng a warning look, “Keep your volume down.”

The two made to the door of the hall.

The two both smelt some abnormal odor in the air, it wasn’t strong but the two noticed it right away. Su Liancheng kicked the door open and shouted, “Done with your monkry business!”

‘Are they trying to test Brother Eighth? What’s this all about?’

Boom.

The door exploded as Su Liancheng kicked it open, a wooded door had turned to dust and ashes within seconds.

There were three middle aged men sitting in the room, they forced a dry smile in unison and said, “What are you talking about? My guests of honor?”

Su Liancheng was furious to see these sanctimonious men, this was not the right way to treat your guests! Especially the guests you begged for favors!

The three middle aged men were the most respected elders in Gu clan.

The First Elder was the oldest among them, he was the most sophisticated and political one.

The Second Elder was addicted to cultivating Martial Arts and cared nothing else.

The Third Elder looked younger and he had been trying to increase his influence stealthily.

“Greeting, Deputy Master.” they rose to their feet and bowed to Murong Yun.

“Greetings, elders, please rise.” Murong Yun took a seat by the table and Su Liancheng was seated right next to him.

“Deputy Master, thank you so much for coming, I believe you have heard about what happened to our village.” the First Elder paused, he took a deep breath and continued, “Do… do you have a plan?”

Murong Yun didn’t answer, he swept across the room and you could feel the temperature had dropped significantly within seconds.

The three elders exchanged a look and exclaimed in the heart, ‘Such great cultivation!’

And they realized how ridiculous they were being just now, trying to test Murong Yun’s strength by using poison in the air!

Murong Yun tapped the table for a little while before he opened his mouth, “You are the elder in the clan, everyone is counting on you, why are you asking me for a plan?”

Su Liancheng glared at the elders, he couldn’t believe how contemptible the three elders could be, they were testing Murong Yun by using poison! Murong Yun, who was sent to help them out by Her Highness Imperial Noble Consort! What they had done to him was purely outrageous!

No one owed them anything, Su Liancheng didn’t even feel like staying in the same room with those scumbags for one more second!
