Chapter 3, Nighttime Fire Attack

Xiao Mingyu lowered his long eyelashes and smiled as he asked, "Do you regret it, Juxin? Do you really want to marry a man like me, who is not skilled in martial arts but possesses a famous treasure?"

She simply stood up and positioned herself beside Xiao Mingyu.

Sigh... Brother Yu

"Brother Yu!" Li Juxin truly has been defeated by him; it is precisely his rugged and unrestrained nature, which is utterly unworthy of his handsome appearance, that has captivated her. "What I mean is, if the two of us die like this, not only can we spare Yuan'er from bearing the pain of possessing the Xiao family's treasure, but we can also frame the unfortunate Gao Tianjing, who gained nothing from this! His later life... is easy to imagine." She smiled with a hint of mischief.

His martial arts skills, when compared to her senior brothers, are like an eagle versus a quail. Alas, he might not even be worthy of a quail, at best he could be considered an old hen. He cannot even defeat her senior sister! It is said that her senior sister's martial arts were regarded by Qin Chuyi as a lifelong disgrace, having passed away so early, likely due to the frustration caused by her disappointing senior sister.

The worst part is that the entire martial world knows he came to seize the Xiao family's treasure, regardless of whether he succeeded or not, he is already covered in the stench of fish... Nowadays...! ... It is difficult to retreat once one has mounted the tiger!

The servants of the Xiao family had long been accustomed to their master's such "debauchery," with none displaying any signs of shock or embarrassment, each bowing their heads and standing with hands lowered, respectfully awaiting instructions.

Brother Yu

Flaming arrows shot towards the Xiao family courtyard, and although it had just rained, making it difficult to start a fire, the Xiao family's houses ignited at the sight of flames, and in an instant, it became a sea of fire

Burn everything, kill everyone! He can still become a legendary hero! His ruthlessness may still intimidate some people

Gao Tian gritted his teeth; the rain soaked everything. It truly is not a good time to set a fire

My lord. A tall man in black approached with an anxious expression, it cannot be delayed any longer! ... Li Juxin's senior brother Zhu Liancheng is about to arrive, once he arrives ...! ... everything will come to an end!

At the hour of the Dog, it indeed began to pour with torrential rain, the rain striking the ground with a loud sound, leaves and petals scattered all over the place in disarray

This old man is too serious! If he can't learn, then why teach? Let things take their course, remain calm and composed, living a few more years is better than anything else

Alas ...! ... What was originally intended as "theft" has inevitably turned into "robbery"

I detest that damned woman beside me for leaking information! What does she mean by saying she cannot sleep soundly lying next to him? Isn't the woman beside him also the cause of his troubles? This trouble will bring lifelong misfortune!

Originally, one could have taken advantage of the chaos to stealthily seize the astonishing treasure and return to the north to live a life of wealth and luxury. But now? They have set up a trap, waiting for him to come and suffer losses in both men and resources!

However, the lady has never misjudged anything; when she says it will rain, it will certainly rain, and when she says there will be a fire, there will certainly be a fire

Xiao Mingyu sat in the main seat of the hall, gazing obsessively at Li Juxin, who was dressed in a light purple outfit; she looked beautiful in anything she wore

The old man suffered a loss, and it seems he didn't gain much from the bargain. The woman from the Western Xia has died, leaving behind a living treasure who insists on becoming his disciple. One misstep leads to another, who would have thought that a legendary figure would actually be driven to death by his own disciple

She was distributing silver coins to dismiss her servants. When she smiled and handed the banknotes and jewelry to the servant who was bowing and reaching out, he felt as if he had seen the Bodhisattva Guanyin

Gao Tianjing finally frowned, raising a hand to stop him from continuing. He certainly understood the situation; regret! Hatred!

"It is already late to ask now." When Li Juxin smiles sweetly, there is a kind of enchanting beauty. "Brother Yu, it is truly worthwhile for us to die like this."

Returning empty-handed, whether dead or injured, having lost all face, it is clear that one is afraid of Zhu Liancheng! Becoming a coward, yet still being suspected of having gained benefits, having stolen treasures! A lifetime of unrest!

Hmm?

Your intentions have been acknowledged by both me and the master. However, there is no need for unnecessary sacrifices! The money provided to you is sufficient for each of you to engage in small businesses to support your families, and there is no need to serve as slaves or servants any longer

Use fire! A murderous intent surged in his eyes

Xiao Mingyu gazed at her deeply, "Chrysanthemum Heart..."

Since the lady married in, for the first time, the master sat while she stood, fulfilling her duties as a wife. They had both become accustomed to the master standing and the lady sitting.

There is only one road!

After Li Juxin finished distributing the funds, the money returned to the top. Xiao Mingyu could not help but pull her over, allowing her to sit on his lap

The number of people who have died in the Chrysanthemum Fairy Trace set up outside the Xiao family village has reached one hundred sixty-six...! This means that fewer than forty people remain by his side! Qin Chuyi is indeed formidable!

The formation he taught Li Juxin is surprisingly fierce, even fiercer than his own

In recent years, if it were not for her, he would not know how many times he had died. Although Gao Tianjing is a scoundrel, he did not speak falsely; he did not hide behind her, yet it was indeed she who had been protecting him and his ancestral treasure all along

"After the rain tonight, I will remove the chrysanthemum fairy's trace. When everyone sees the fire, we will scatter and flee together. Remember, we must disperse and not concentrate on a single path"

Summer rain comes quickly and goes quickly

We live and sleep together, and we die in the same grave! Damn the brother-in-law and the second brother-in-law! If one's martial arts are too good, one will end up without women! Oh, I find this statement quite profound; it's a pity that we won't die a good death, otherwise, I would definitely inscribe it on a tombstone, so that the brother-in-law and the second brother-in-law can come to pay their respects whenever they want and get all worked up. Hahahaha ... ... ...

Gao Tian was competing with a cold expression, striving to keep himself from frowning, which was truly difficult

Master, will you allow it or not? The man in black is holding an oil barrel.

Li Juxin gently patted his head as if comforting a child, this young Master Xiao who never seems to grow up... She smiled and shook her head at him, today the words she needed to convey were too important to be expressed in such a casual manner

Li Juxin had deliberately dressed up, and she leaned against Xiao Mingyu, leisurely watching the rain in the corridor. Servants came and went, carrying their belongings, their expressions anxious, which made the two of them appear even more proud and ethereal.

Kill! Exterminate!

We are willing to live and die together with the master and mistress! The servants knelt in a sea of people.

Regretting that I should not have been momentarily tempted by greed, I thought to take advantage of the chaos caused by the uprising of Wang Xiaobo and Li Shun in the Sichuan region to launch a surprise attack on the Xiao family and seize their treasures

Well, it saved the cost of the coffin and the funeral

There is no way around it; after all, the old man is infatuated with someone else's mother

Li Juxin smiled faintly, her smile carrying a hint of desolation

The servants exchanged glances, is it raining? Is there a fire?

The servants of the Xiao family saw the flames, as if they had witnessed the signal for a charge into battle. From all directions, they rushed and ran, creating a scene of chaos with chickens flying and dogs jumping. The subordinates of Gao Tianjing, having not received any orders, had no choice but to temporarily take refuge in the trees to avoid being trampled.

Ladies and gentlemen, indeed, regardless of who stands or sits, the one who speaks and makes decisions is still the extraordinarily beautiful Madam Xiao. You are all loyal servants of the Xiao family for generations, and now that the wicked are approaching, with their dark hearts and ruthless hands, they particularly enjoy bullying the innocent. My husband and I have our own plans, and you need not remain here to take risks.

The servants were all shocked this time, each with their mouths agape, looking at the two masters with an expression of disbelief

Qin Chuyi's most favored disciple ended up marrying a man of mediocre martial skills. Many people say that she loves his money, but that is nonsense! Ju Xin loves money but does not have to marry him.

Put it down!

Qin Chuyi was practically born to be an immortal; it is said that there was nothing he did not know and nothing he could not understand or learn. Throughout his life, he held himself in high regard, relying on his talents and looking down on others, yet he unexpectedly fell in love with a woman from the Western Xia.

The sky is high and the veins are bulging, the face looks extremely ferocious under the illumination of the flames

You are truly ruthless; after all, he is a man who once admired you. Hurting him like this, you truly are my wife, Xiao Mingyu. Bold and fierce, I like it..." He laughed heartily

What is going on? Gao Tianjing was bewildered, cold sweat streaming down his face, faintly sensing that he was falling into some kind of trap. If the Xiao family were to be completely reduced to ruins, not only would he be unable to snatch even an antique vase, but he would also suffer a total loss, and moreover...! This blame is both unjust and heavy!
