Chapter 946 — Recovery! Breakthrough!
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 2
"Mr. Yu, when you do things, I beg you to leave a little room — don't push them to the absolute extreme. There's a saying: when things reach their peak, they reverse. I wonder whether you've heard it?" Gu Pengzhan truly had no other recourse; he could only speak with a veiled threat.
"Oh?" Yu Bide regarded Gu Pengzhan with keen interest, then burst into laughter. "So you're trying to threaten me?"
"I wouldn't dare!" Gu Pengzhan was furious at heart, yet there was nothing he could do; he could only swallow his pride and yield. "I am merely stating an eternal truth."
"Ha? Preaching truths to me? Haitian, did you hear that? He's preaching truths to me? Hahahaha!" Yu Bide laughed without the slightest restraint. "He says I should leave a little room in what I do, that I shouldn't push things to the extreme — did you hear him?"
"Third Uncle, I heard him!" Yu Haitian nodded, smiling as he echoed.
"And do you find it funny?" Yu Bide asked mockingly.
"Funny — incredibly funny!" Yu Haitian laughed heartily too.
"Hmph!" Yu Bide's tone shifted abruptly, and he looked coldly at Gu Pengzhan. "When I do things, I leave no room at all! I push things to the absolute extreme — what can you do about it? Hm? What do you want to do about it? Just glare helplessly, do you? Furious, are you? Hahahahaha!"
Watching Gu Pengzhan's pathetic, helpless state, Yu Bide felt a surge of exhilaration, as though he had vented a bellyful of pent-up spite! If Yu Shuixing had not forbidden him from killing Wei Zhao, he would have wanted to kill Gu Pengzhan right now, then go deal with Wei Zhao!
The pleasure of humiliating another filled Yu Bide with immense satisfaction!
Gu Pengzhan's face flushed a dark purple. The Yu family simply did not reason; there was no reasoning with them at all! His chest heaved violently, and he was so enraged he could not speak...
Inside Wei Zhao's room, within the jade pendant, an anxious expression surfaced unbidden on Wei Zhao's face!
Though Wei Zhao's person was within the jade pendant, his whole being remained fully conscious; everything happening outside, Wei Zhao heard with perfect clarity!
Including the conversation between Gu Pengzhan and Gu Mengyao in the living room — Wei Zhao had caught it all! Gu Pengzhan's words had moved him deeply, and the devotion of the young miss and little Shu touched Wei Zhao as well!
Wei Zhao had not imagined Gu Pengzhan's situation had grown so dire — the Xiao family and Zhao Qibing's people had actually come knocking, and even the Yu family had found their way here! And the Yu family actually intended to carry off the young miss to be a concubine — they truly dared to dream such things!
Though the young miss was not Wei Zhao's woman, Gu Pengzhan's attitude had already made Wei Zhao regard caring for the young miss as his own duty! To put it in the most extreme terms, he was still the young miss's bodyguard — how could he let the Gu family's people be abducted by the Yu family?
Very well. Since you are so arrogant, then every last one of you shall pay the price for that arrogance!
Yet Wei Zhao's heart was frantic with anxiety — his strength had not yet recovered, and at this moment he truly could not go out to stand up for the young miss!
Faster, a little faster...
Within the jade pendant's space, Wei Zhao madly absorbed the energy of that realm!
Listening to the Yu family's relentless pressure outside, Wei Zhao wished he could rise right now and charge out — but Wei Zhao knew it was not yet possible! The moment he walked out that door would be the hour of these people's deaths; therefore, the recovery of his strength was of the utmost importance!
Wei Zhao clenched his teeth. The vast energy of the jade pendant's space poured into his body, and as Wei Zhao's Xuanyuan Dragon-Taming Art circulated faster and faster, that energy grew ever stronger!
"Whoosh—"
