Reborn Heiress: Seeking Revenge-Chapter 464 Old Bull Eats Tender Grass(4)_1

He advanced on Li Zhaolei step by step, looking down condescendingly at the trembling figure. A deep, dangerous voice rang out beside Li Qinglei’s ear, enveloping him in a cocoon of fear.

"Have the guts to say that again?"

Li Qinglei’s mouth flapped open and shut, but he didn’t dare to utter a word, his eyes brimming with fear and dread.

The incident had unfolded too abruptly. Ye Sanshao’s movements were incredibly fast; neither Bai Muxue nor Zhuge Feng had clearly seen how he made his move. Li Qinglei had already collapsed to the ground, vomiting blood wildly and sustaining serious internal injuries.

The expressions of the others changed dramatically. Zhuge Feng had only just noticed Ye Sanshao and Shangguan You, and it seemed they had intentionally allowed him to find them. Otherwise, with the martial prowess the pair commanded, it would have been impossible for him to have discovered them.

"Elder, Young Master Li is young and ignorant. He misspoke. Please, don’t take it to heart; we apologize to you on his behalf."

"That’s right, Elder! You are magnanimous. Please forgive Young Master Li this one time." Bai Muxue and Fang Jianfei both pleaded on behalf of Li Zhaolei. However, their repeated use of ’Elder’ caused the anger in Ye Sanshao’s heart to flare up once more. Was he really that old?

"He is the Young Master of the Li Family. Please spare his life. Besides, the horde of beasts is approaching; let’s handle the matter at hand first." Zhuge Feng climbed up from the ground, casting a cold glance at Li Zhaolei. To kill him would be to dirty his own hands. Although this Elder Meihua is very odd, he also seems very familiar.

"Alright, don’t fuss over that kid. He’s clueless." Watching Ye Sanshao’s domineering display, Shangguan You felt her heart sweeten. So what if they think of you as my disciple? Besides, you’ve always been a cradle robber, Ye Sanshao; what’s there to be angry about?

"Hmph." Ye Sanshao snorted coldly, looking at Shangguan You with a hint of complaint. If she hadn’t disguised them like this, this situation wouldn’t have occurred. Disciple, disciple! The thought made him sick to his stomach. He was her lover, her sweetheart, her husband! How could he possibly be a disciple? Anything but that. Calling him a disciple was a blatant slap in the face!

"No matter what you look like, I love you, darling," Shangguan You whispered softly into his ear. Her voice was so low only Ye Sanshao could hear it. At her words, the corners of Ye Sanshao’s mouth curled up slightly, the storm in his heart giving way to clear skies.

The instant Ye Sanshao’s eyes brightened, the surroundings seemed to light up as well. With a cold snort, he stopped paying attention to Li Qinglei, who was still lying on the ground.

His girl had said she loved him! Ye Sanshao was so happy he felt like he could fly.

"Take this. It helps with internal injuries." Shangguan You pulled a bottle from her robes and tossed it to Zhuge Feng. Although she had Jade Dew Pills, they couldn’t treat his specific internal injuries.

"Thank you." Zhuge Feng caught it, took out a pill, and swallowed it. A faint fragrance washed over him, and a warm sensation spread from his chest throughout his body. This scent... His gaze involuntarily softened as he looked at Shangguan You. It was her unique fragrance. Had she come to save him?

Had she disguised herself like this because she didn’t want to reveal her identity? She actually came to such a dangerous place! Zhuge Feng fought back the strong urge to step forward and embrace her, contenting himself with quietly watching Shangguan You.

Ye Sanshao’s eyes turned cold once more. His girl was being coveted again! A pang of jealousy inexplicably surged within him.

"Elder, these are special circumstances, and Young Master Li is severely injured. For the sake of us facing a common enemy, please save his life," Fang Jianfei pleaded. Seeing Zhuge Feng’s complexion rapidly improving, he exchanged a glance with Bai Muxue, then turned to Shangguan You with his earnest request.

Ye Sanshao snorted coldly, his gaze sweeping frostily over Li Zhaolei, Bai Muxue, and Fang Jianfei. Anyone who dared to have designs on his girl was courting death! She was his, and no one else should even think about it! Zhuge Feng was now firmly on his blacklist; Ye Sanshao knew better than anyone what that brat’s intentions towards his girl were.

Moreover, this brat had known his girl, had been in contact with her, even before he had. The more Ye Sanshao thought about it, the more jealous he became, and his gaze towards Zhuge Feng grew increasingly hostile. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

He’d find a chance to let this damn brat Zhuge Feng know his place, to make him understand clearly that he was unworthy of his girl!

As Ye Sanshao pondered, his deep eyes darted about. He stood pressed closely beside Shangguan You.

"Give one of your pills to that kid," Shangguan You commanded coldly. Heal him now, and send him on his way to the afterlife later. Anyone who dared to scheme against Zhuge Feng would pay the price.

"Thank you, Elder! Thank you!" Li Zhaolei spat out a few more mouthfuls of blood as he thanked Shangguan You profusely. Shangguan You rolled her eyes internally. If he’d known it would come to this, he shouldn’t have been so arrogant. Now he’s really shot himself in the foot.

The vibrations from the ground grew increasingly intense, and the air filled with the cries of animals. Shangguan You and Ye Sanshao stood together. Zhuge Feng, Bai Muxue, and Fang Jianfei lined up beside them. They watched as myriad beasts charged forth, dense trees were instantly flattened, and clouds of dust rolled towards them. The faces of the group grew increasingly somber.

The current situation was comparable to facing an army of thousands. No wonder all those leopards, tigers, wolves, and giant snakes had fled so completely earlier. If running were an option, I would have been long gone, Shangguan You thought.

"What do we do now?" Zhuge Feng asked, standing beside Shangguan You. He felt an inexplicable trust in her. Even though the situation was tense, he forced himself to remain calm.

As the roars intensified, the entire land vibrated more vehemently. Countless hordes of beasts converged from all directions. Overhead, a dense flock of Vultures began to descend, their long beaks bared, ready to launch surprise attacks.

"AWOO! AWOO! AWOO!" Amidst the cacophony of roars, sharp, piercing cries echoed, seemingly directing the entire beast horde with purpose. Shangguan You and Ye Sanshao exchanged a look and nodded simultaneously. Compared to the veritable army of beasts on the ground, the Vultures in the sky were mere child’s play.

"Eliminate the Vultures in the sky!" Shangguan You’s aged voice commanded. She casually took out six Medicinal Pills and tossed one to each of the six people present.
