Chapter 862: Chapter 851: Commotion

Xiaang Wentian could not understand the true reason behind the situation.

He ordered people to carry the Wu Brothers back to the Wu Mansion.

As for Wu Santong’s corpse, he had it placed in a coffin.

Soon.

The Vice Minister of the Ministry of War’s Mansion was cleaned thoroughly.

The wedding proceeded as scheduled.

Ding Ling and Little Dragon Girl attended and witnessed the wedding as Yang Guo’s elders.

Halfway through the wedding.

A beauty with a face like white jade, appearance as morning blossoms, and extraordinary demeanor rushed into the wedding site with a hundred guards.

She pointed at Yang Guo, her flower-like face flushed red:

“Yang Guo! You deserve to die!”

The person was none other than Guo Fu.

She had been ordering her people to keep a close watch on the Vice Minister’s Mansion, reporting to her immediately at any sign of disturbance.

Initially, everything was fine.

Yang Guo was about to be captured and beaten, and Guo Fu felt both pleased and proud, thinking: “Yang Guo, let’s see if you still dare to plead with me. If you don’t, I’ll lock you up in a death cell, and I’ll capture and torture Yelv Yan, making it impossible for you both to meet or marry!”

However, Yang Guo had not been captured.

Instead, news came that Wu Santong was dead, Da and Xiao Wu were lying on the ground unconscious, not aware of life or death.

Guo Fu was shocked and angry, unable to believe things had reached this point!

This was the Emperor’s domain, the Imperial City’s territory, her turf as Guo Fu, who dared defy her? Didn’t they value their lives?!

Anger flared, and without further inquiry, she mounted her horse and charged out of the Eldest Princess’s Mansion, rampaged all the way, and upon reaching the Vice Minister’s Mansion, Xiaang Wentian, a mere little officer dared to block her, further enraging Guo Fu to whip out her horse whip, lashing at Xiaang Wentian while haughtily shouting, ‘You insolent servant, dare to block me? Don’t you know who I am!’

Xiaang Wentian was whipped in the face, dared not express anger, much less act against Guo Fu, as his promotion to this point had not been easy, he was just a few steps away from entering the Imperial Palace Library to learn the Nine Yin Scripture and other techniques, how could he give up such a hard-won opportunity?

Thus, he could only swallow his grievances, thinking, ‘Just you wait, unwise Eldest Princess! When you realize whom you face, let’s see how you continue your arrogance!’

Thus, he deliberately stepped aside, allowing Guo Fu to charge into the Vice Minister’s Mansion.

Thereafter, he pretended to follow in panic behind Guo Fu.

“Guo Fu!”

Yang Guo, clad in a bright red wedding robe, looked even more handsome, distinguished, and graceful; his face was full of joy as he toasted the guests, Guo Fu’s sudden intrusion naturally displeased him.

He initially had a fairly amicable relationship with Guo Fu.

But later discovered their worldview, life philosophy, values, etc. were entirely different, often one wanted to go east, while the other insisted on going west.

Both were stubborn and highly self-respecting, once a decision was made, it was hard to change.

Thus, over the following years, conflicts arose endlessly, during one such conflict, Yang Guo nearly had his arm cut off, causing cold sweat with the memory of what the Alien had told him, ‘Yang Guo, if events follow their normal trajectory, Guo Fu will cut off one of your arms!’

Yang Guo distanced himself from Guo Fu, better to avoid provocation than to endure it?!

Though he didn’t believe in story trajectories, he trusted the Alien’s analysis of Guo Fu’s character, her reckless impulsiveness was indeed brainless, truly capable of doing absurd things.

And Yang Guo couldn’t possibly tolerate her, they were destined never to be together, thus facing Guo Fu’s intrusion, he sternly said:

“I told you years ago, we’ll never marry. Why must you escalate this situation? Don’t you think you’re bringing disgrace to Uncle Guo and Lady Guo?”

“Pah!”

Overwhelmed by anger, grievance, unwillingness, and depression, Guo Fu, especially seeing Yang Guo dressed in wedding attire, heroic and outstanding, her heart churned with mixed emotions, some words burst out without thought:

“It’s you who disgraces my parents! You’d rather marry a wretched, low-born, vile foreign ugly girl than me, the noble and beautiful Eldest Princess! This is an insult to me, and even worse, an insult to my parents! You dare mention Uncle Guo, Lady Guo, don’t you feel embarrassed, ashamed?! You don’t deserve to call them Uncle Guo, Lady Guo! You illegitimate son! Just like your father, only knows to chase after rotten peach blossoms!”

“You!”

Yang Guo’s eyes reddened, he rushed over, slapped Guo Fu hard, the slap sounded crisp:

“Get out!”

Yang Guo pointed towards the door:

“You’re not welcome here.”

“You, you, you dare hit me?!”

A clear palm print appeared on Guo Fu’s face, she felt a fiery pain, incredulously covering her face with her hand, her tearful eyes filled with rage, she screamed and suddenly drew her sword at Yang Guo.

Yang Guo, it seemed, had anticipated this, promptly dodging the thrust.

Guo Fu chased after Yang Guo in a frenzy, thrusting and slashing.

The guests instantly suffered.

Some failed to dodge, struck by Guo Fu, blood gushed forth.

Yang Guo, furious:

“You’ve gone mad!”

He regretted, in hindsight, hitting Guo Fu in front of so many.

But Guo Fu calling him illegitimate, insulting his father, touched his Inverted Scale, he couldn’t bear it.

But only after hitting her did he realize he might have acted impulsively, feeling somewhat remorseful, yet seeing Guo Fu truly trying to hack him, he tossed this remorse aside, immensely grateful he didn’t marry a reckless, arrogant woman like Guo Fu!

Otherwise, he couldn’t imagine how he’d survive the rest of his life!

“Ah!”

Guo Fu could only scream, disregarding everything, chasing Yang Guo with her sword.

Being humiliated by Yang Guo in front of so many, she, a dignified Eldest Princess, losing such face, heart disheartened, even contemplating death, how would she let Yang Guo off, no matter what Yang Guo said, she just raised her sword to stab him.

Yang Guo looked towards Ding Ling and Little Dragon Girl’s seats, seeing Ding Ling expressionless, and Little Dragon Girl somewhat worried, seemed ready to intervene, his heart skipped a beat, realizing his action didn’t gain Ding Ling’s approval.

Feeling disappointed, though his actions didn’t slow, he immediately picked up a stool, to clash with Guo Fu’s Treasure Sword, attempting to disarm her.

But at the moment of contact, the stool was effortlessly sliced as if through tofu.

“True Ziwei Soft Sword?!

“You dare use this sword against me?!”

Yang Guo too was enraged, grabbing another chair, aimed to smash Guo Fu’s arm.
