Chapter 2951 — The Rain One Appears

"Stop!" At that very moment, before Zhao Qibing could reach Shen Yushu again, a black figure suddenly appeared before Shen Yushu, blocking her way!
"Gah!" Zhao Qibing was astonished, but he was no fool; he hastily pulled up short, for this black-clad man who had appeared out of nowhere actually possessed early heaven-rank strength! Yet when Zhao Qibing fixed his eyes on the man's features, he was instantly stunned! This man was none other than Yu Yi of the Hidden Yu family! The heaven-rank expert who always attended Old Master Yu!
Zhao Qibing had been to the Hidden Yu family, so he had naturally seen this Yu Yi before.
What Zhao Qibing could not understand was why Yu Yi would appear here!
"Is this not Mr. Yu Yi? From what I know, your Hidden Yu family bears a grudge against Wei Zhao, do you not? Why come here and meddle in others' affairs?" Zhao Qibing was somewhat puzzled by Yu Yi's sudden intervention.
Wei Zhao, too, was greatly astonished by Yu Yi's appearance. Could Yu Ning have sent him to help? On second thought, that seemed unlikely. This Yu Yi was Yu Tianxing's personal attendant, of transcendent standing within the Hidden Yu family; even the family head, Yu Xiaochen, could not command him, let alone Yu Ning.
"Zhao Qibing, you had best know when to stop!" Yu Yi did not answer Zhao Qibing's question, for there were certain matters he could not answer! The time of that betrothal and the inheritance was almost at hand; to guard against any mishap befalling Shen Yushu, Yu Yi had stopped by to take a look along the way, never expecting to run into Zhao Qibing trying to kill her!
Were it not for certain things Yu Yi could not speak of, he would have liked to finish Zhao Qibing off on the spot! Was Yushu someone he could touch? Setting aside Shen Yushu's identity as an inheritor and that betrothal, even without all that, he could not stand by and watch Zhao Qibing bully her!
"What do you mean by that?" Zhao Qibing was utterly baffled. "Yu Yi, are you going to protect Wei Zhao?"
"Hmph!" Yu Yi gave a cold snort and did not answer.
"Is it because of Yu Ning? Has your Hidden Yu family turned to Wei Zhao's side?" Zhao Qibing had a vague sense that he had guessed something, and he was shaken to the core. Somewhat unable to believe it, he asked, "Could it be that a family like your Hidden Yu family is also starting to forge friendly ties with Wei Zhao?"
"That is not your concern," Yu Yi said faintly.
"Mr. Yu Yi, let me offer you a word of advice: Wei Zhao is finished. Even a god could not save him now. Whether he dies or not, he is doomed to be a cripple for the rest of his life. And he has no end of enemies; who knows, someone may come seeking vengeance as early as tomorrow. I advise you to keep your distance from him, lest you bring trouble down upon yourselves!" Zhao Qibing counseled.
"That is a matter for our Hidden Yu family; the Hidden Zhao family need not trouble itself over it," Yu Yi said flatly. "Are you finished? If you are, then get lost, and be quick about it! Shall I see you on your way?"RS
