But their fists had already collided at this moment.
A massive boom resounded.
Huyue was directly blasted away, collapsing two walls in succession before falling silent.
The entire place went quiet.
Shi Xueqing’s face was pale, her heart filled with shock and regret.
Ancestor, of all the people you could provoke, you just had to provoke Mr. Xue! Look what’s happened now! You were probably killed by that punch!
Meanwhile, Xue An stood in place, his face wearing a strange expression.
Suddenly, there was a rustling amidst the debris, and then Huyue struggled to climb out from the ruins.
First spitting out the dust from his mouth, he then gritted his teeth and yelled, “Xue, I knew you weren’t dead! Damn it, couldn’t you have gone a little easier? It hurts like hell!”
Nobody dared to speak.
To actually curse Mr. Xue, this guy was definitely done for.
As expected.
Xue An lifted his foot, slowly walking toward Huyue.
Shi Xueqing felt a cold chill, but still mustered the courage to step forward, “Mr. Xue, this person is an ancestor from Lingying Palace, his head’s a bit off, please don’t stoop to his level!”
Xue An only gave her a faint glance, and Shi Xueqing couldn’t continue her words.
Then Xue An walked right past her, coming straight up to Huyue and looked down at him from above.
Shi Xueqing’s vision darkened, her heart filled with despair.
Ancestor, rest in peace! Come Qingming, I will offer a bowl of beef noodles for you… Hm?
Because Shi Xueqing saw something that surprised her immensely.
She saw Xue An’s lips curl into a smile, his face gradually revealing a look of immense satisfaction.
“Old fox, you can’t die, and neither can I!”
“Cut the crap, give me a hand! I can’t get up!” Huyue said irritably.
Xue An reached out and pulled Huyue up from the ground.
Then Huyue shook his body, discarding his disguise to reveal his true appearance.
Looking at Huyue now, there was no more of the embarrassed state from before, he exuded a noble and extraordinary aura.
It was just that his overly handsome face made that aura seem somewhat effeminate.
“Tsk tsk, old fox, after so many years, you’re still so good-looking! It’s just a pity you’re a man, wasting such a handsome face,” Xue An tsked “admiringly.”
A vein bulged on Huyue’s forehead, as he was extremely averse to being called beautiful.
“Xue, I haven’t settled with you over seducing my sister back then, and you still have the nerve to say such nonsense?”
Hiss!
Many people in the room felt the flames of gossip burning in their eyes.
Mr. Xue actually had a fling with this guy’s sister?
Very possible!
Seeing how beautiful this guy is, his sister must be absolutely stunning.
Yet Xue An was unconcerned, “Old fox, will you ever let it go? How many times have I said it, I did nothing back then, and I considered Xiao Ying as my own sister! It was she who talked nonsense about not marrying anyone but me, and in the end, she stubbornly insisted on leaving the Fox Realm with me. How can you blame me for that?”
“You talk as if you’re the victim! Do you know when the news of your demise came, Xiao Ying wept and then left the Fox Realm in secret, and her whereabouts have been unknown since!” Huyue was pained at the thought.
“Hm? Xiao Ying ran away?”
Huyue nodded gravely, “She hasn’t returned until now!”
Xue An sighed, “She’s grown up too, and she’s strong enough to protect herself. Perhaps she’s hiding somewhere.”
“It all started because of you!”
“Hey, are you even reasonable?”
“Reasonable with you? If anything happens to Xiao Ying, do you believe I will fight you to the death?” Huyue said.
Xue An replied with a chuckle, “Including this time, that makes it the 13,421st time you’ve lost to me!”
Huyue’s face was full of discontent, “I was caught off-guard and forced to fight after your sneak attack! This time doesn’t count!”
Xue An nodded with a smile, “Alright then, how about we have another fair fight?”
Huyue’s irritated expression suddenly cleared, and he spoke lightly as if there was not a cloud in the sky, “Fighting and killing is so uninteresting. Under such a tranquil moon, why don’t we indulge in a few drinks instead?”
Xue An laughed heartily and slapped Huyue’s shoulder hard, “Old fox, do you know why I get along with you so well?”
“Is it because I’m kind, handsome, gentle, generous, and have a high cultivation level?” Huyue blinked and said with a proud face.
“No, it’s because I just love this shameless side of you!”
“I’m flattered, flattered!”
Xue An and Huyue walked away, arms over each other’s shoulders, laughing and joking.
They left behind a crowd with dumbfounded faces.
Nobody had expected such an outcome.
But regardless, the commotion had at least settled down.
Just as everyone let out a sigh of relief,
they heard a voice ask, “Excuse me, are my ten trays of steamed buns ready?”
Everyone turned around to look.
Xiao Yu, feeling embarrassed being stared at by so many eyes, sheepishly held up five fingers and said timidly, “If there aren’t ten trays, five would also do.”
Everyone was silent.
“How about… three trays?”
Still, no one spoke.
Xiao Yu, with a hint of a sob in her voice, said, “You can’t just give me one tray!”
Xiao Sha, unable to bear it any longer, knocked her on the head, “Are you done yet?”
But his touch was a lot gentler.
Because Xiao Sha knew that Xiao Yu had risked her life to deliver the message to their boss just moments before.
“I just wanted something to eat!” Xiao Yu whispered, lowering her head like a wronged little wife.
Yu Ran, unable to hold back his laughter, ordered, “Go on, quickly steam ten trays of buns!”
“Miss, the kitchen has been wrecked!”
“Then fix it now!”
While the restaurant was bustling with repairs,
Xue An returned to their lodgings with Huyue.
As soon as he entered, An Yan just happened to be in the living room.
Huyue paused for a moment, then stepped forward and bowed with his hands folded, “This must be my younger brother’s wife…”
Xue An immediately knocked on the back of Huyue’s head and said indifferently, “Call her sister-in-law!”
“Hey, if we’re talking about age, even if you include your rebirth, you’re only over three thousand years old. I’ve lived for more than a hundred thousand years!”
Xue An raised an eyebrow, “Who’s talking about age with you? We’re talking about strength!”
“Are you bullying me because my true form can’t descend?”
Xue An nodded, “So what if I am? How about we go outside and have a fight right now?”
Huyue immediately said respectfully, “Sister-in-law!”
An Yan was somewhat dumbfounded, “Huh?”
Xue An smiled lightly, “This is a little brother I took in a while back! Just call him Huyue!”
“Oh? Huyue, what a strange name!”
Xue An laughed, “Of course it’s strange! Because he’s transformed from a fox! Come on, show your true form to your sister-in-law!”
Huyue looked indignant, “I am a dignified Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox, how can I simply reveal my original form, you…”
Xue An said flatly, “Fight?”
A flash of light shone, and a strikingly beautiful snow-white fox appeared before their eyes.
An Yan’s eyes gradually widened, “Wow, how cute!”
