Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 1413 - Conversation Between the Yu's

Early this morning, Yutian had already reported the good news to his grandpa, telling him that he was now Mystic early phase- the old man was so happy that even his voice changed. Now, all of a sudden, he was soon to be a cripple... How was he supposed to tell him this?

Thinking of all these troubling thoughts, Yutian closed his eyes slowly and fainted...

Yu Feng didn't leave right away, but stood some distance from the police station and breathed in relief when he saw Yutian put into the ambulance!

It seemed like he was still alive- those were heavy injuries, but this was what Yu Feng wanted to see. If he had died, then House Yu would be in trouble. They may be tyrants, but as the host of the noble house meetings, even if they have rights that the other houses didn't have, they couldn't just attack other houses out of nowhere. This would lead to hostilities from the other houses.

But it was fine now. As long as Yutian wasn't dead, everything was fine. This would be classed as conflict and friction between the younger ones, and the injured was injured because he wasn't strong enough- there was no one he could blame. And so, Yu Feng wouldn't have that many responsibilities. House Chen would be pissed, but they wouldn't be able to do anything!

What were they supposed to do, fight back? This was how the world of noble houses worked. You could challenge the enemy house at the meeting if you wanted, and a challenge like that didn't account for death during battle. If you were powerful enough, you could kill your opponent- but the same could happen to you! This was the same as an arena battle where you signed contracts of a fight to the death, and the committee wouldn't side with anyone. If you had the strength, you took care of it yourself, and then they'd continue the meeting afterwards!

After all, this was your vendetta- you couldn't ask for backup. In other words, if House Chen wanted to have vengeance, it needed to be House Chen to send the fighter, a disciple, or a relative. If it was someone from another place, that wouldn't work- this would be breaking the rules!

Plus, this rule was established at first because of House Yu. They had an unclear relationship with the hidden House Yu, so if the hidden House Yu were to send someone from their side, what the hell was the others supposed to do? They'd be massacred!

Of course, even though the hidden house Yu and House Yu were actually considered relatvives; this wasn't that public a fact. This had to do with the hidden house Yu's judgement- they wanted money from House Yu, and so they couldn't admit to that relative relationship. Once they did so officially, the common noble House Yu would be integrated to the hidden one, and they wouldn't get money from the common world anymore!

This was the rule's limitation- House Yu couldn't go to the hidden House Yu for backup.

The people of House Yu weren't pleased for that rule, but it was great for Yu Feng's current state!

There was no way Yutian could have any form of vengeance in the meeting now- he was the only practitioner in that house, and now he was already crippled. There was nothing he could challenge them with!

"Chen Yutian- you dared to fight me for a woman- who do you think you are? You think you're hot shot because you're Mystic early phase? I'm already mid phase. Crippling you is the same as pulling a leg from an ant!" Yu Feng smiled coldly.

Of course, he was no idiot, too- while this wasn't too big a deal for House Yu, he still needed to inform his dad about it as fast as possible.

"Oh? Feng, what's wrong?" Shuixing was practitioning when his private phone rang. This phone number was only known by Yu Feng and his older brother. Shuixing didn't even tell anyone else since this was an emergency. This was a line for bigger events.

"Father, I've heavily injured Chen Yutian!" Yu Feng didn't waste any time.

"What!" Shuixing paused. "Chen Yutian? Heavily injured?"

Shuixing had just came back from his practitioning state- he couldn't adjust back that quickly.

"House Chen's Chen Yutian- I've probbaly crippled him, and he can't practition anymore; even if he recovers, it'll be hard for him to progress!" Yu Feng explained.

"House Chen's? What did you beat him up for, it's just House Chen, why would you bother with them? Chen Yutian is only a Golden class, and he has no conflict with us at all! The meeting is about to be hosted soon, why would you go mess with them, this is just causing trouble!" Shuixing said angrily. "Why are you so reckless? What happened?"

"Father, he isn't actually Golden class. He's a Mystic early phase!" Yu Feng said. "Plus, Song Lingshan is as well!"

"What? They're both Mystics now? How is that impossible?" Shuixing paused, not focusing on why the fight happened anymore. Why were they Mystics all of a sudden?"

"I don't know either, but I suspect they've done House Song's couple practitioning!" Yu Feng said, pissed off at the thought.

"Couple practitioning? You're saying Chen Yutian and Song Lingshan did that together?" Shuixing seemed to understand something now, and it made sense why his son was acting impulsively.

"Yes!"Yu Feng nodded. "This is what happened, Song Lingshan just came back from a mission, and I brought food over to her place to celebrate her safe return, but Chen Yutian was there..."

Yu Feng told him all that happened, not hiding anything or adding anything. This wasn't something wrong he did in his eyes, after all, and anyone else would do the same. Lingshan was his wife in name already, and somebody did that sort of thing with her first? He'd be a coward if he didn't do anything!

"So that's what happened!" Shuixing understood his son's feelings now. "This meant that Lingshan cheated on you with that Chen Yutian? Hmph, now that that's the case, the blame can't be put on us!"

"Yes! Song Lingshan is my wife in name, and House Chen is still cutting in like that- he's disrespecting our house! But, I'm also afraid that this would cause trouble in the meeting, so I didn't kill him on the spot, and let him survive..." Yu Feng said.
