Chapter 2565 — Zhu the Leader Takes Action
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
Zhu the Leader's expression, however, changed. He suffered from a case of Wei Zhao phobia now, and he reckoned that if Ying Ziyu shouted those words before the scions—or even the heads—of the hidden families, not a one of them would dare cross her!
Chen Bawang had come along this time as well; he had personally driven over to receive Chen Xiaoba just now. But he was rather glum. He had meant to use this opportunity to cultivate his ties with the two Zhuang brothers, to treat those two formidable men to a meal and warm up their relations—but to his surprise, the two Zhuang brothers had simply driven off, leaving Chen Bawang with a wasted trip.
Still, since he had come, Chen Bawang was in no hurry to head back. He waited in the adjoining room for Chen Xiaoba to finish with Chen Xi, so that father and son could return together.
Chen Bawang was resting when a heart-rending scream suddenly came from the next room, giving him a violent start. Was that not his son Chen Xiaoba's voice? Chen Bawang panicked at once, scrambled up from the bed, and rushed out of the room. Without a second thought he kicked open the door of the adjoining room—and there was his son, clutching his crotch and rolling on the floor…
"Xiaoba, what's happened to you?" Chen Bawang was frantic at the sight of his son's miserable state.
"Dad… I'm ruined… aoooh…" Chen Xiaoba could not even finish a sentence, writhing on the floor in agony. Perhaps at the sight of his rescuer, his eyes rolled back and he passed out cold.
"You little bitch, what have you done to my son? I'll kill you!" Chen Bawang did not need to guess what had happened—his son had tried to force himself on Ying Ziyu, she had fought back, and a kick to Chen Xiaoba's crotch had brought about this tragedy.
So Chen Bawang did not bother asking for the cause of it all. He drew his pistol outright, leveled it at Ying Ziyu, and was about to fire! He was no Essence Cultivator—a gun was the mightiest weapon in his hands!
Zhu the Leader had been enjoying the show, letting Ying Ziyu have her fun and vent her feelings, but when he saw Chen Bawang draw his gun, he panicked at once. Ying Ziyu was no Essence Cultivator either—how could she dodge a bullet?
Zhu the Leader burst straight through the window, one palm slamming into Chen Bawang's gun arm and shattering it into a comminuted fracture. The pistol clattered to the floor!
"You… who are you?" Chen Bawang had not expected anyone to come in through the window. His arm was in agony, but he still asked in shock. He was a formidable figure; though his arm throbbed, he was not about to thrash about like Chen Xiaoba, half dead with pain.
"I was sent by her brother," Zhu the Leader said, pointing at Ying Ziyu.
"Grandpa Zhu?" Ying Ziyu knew Zhu the Leader too—she was close with Chen Xi, so naturally she had seen him often enough. Hearing that Zhu the Leader had been sent by Wei Zhao to save her, she was first overjoyed, then alarmed. "Xiaoxi was taken too—how is she?"
"Rest easy, Miss Ying. Master Lin has gone personally to rescue Xiaoxi." Zhu the Leader usually called Ying Ziyu "Ziyu," but now that his identity was out in the open, it would hardly do to address her so familiarly.
