Chapter 226: Chapter 226: No Need to Waste a Bull Sword on a Chicken
Hua Linye snorted coldly, "Utterly foolish."
Xiao Jihan nodded, expressing his strong agreement, "This is courting death."
That Liu Mengyan had been drifting outside since childhood, only to be discovered by the Liu Family and taken back by them by chance after growing up.
Not long after returning, she made a name for herself in Beast Emperor City, with people proclaiming how kind and good she was.
Anyone who thinks should consider carefully whether this Liu Mengyan has some problem.
Or is the Liu Family setting a trap?
But Jiang Mochuan threw himself in headlong.
He brought this upon himself and can blame no one else.
Anyway, marrying is good for him; no matter how he changes in the future, whether he regrets or reflects, there will be no chance with his wife here.
Moreover, judging by his wife’s expression just now, she is extremely disgusted by him.
Along the way, they encountered several assassination attempts, and some were orchestrated by the Jiang Family.
Wen Nanxi calmly and leisurely said, "If he had no problems, he wouldn’t have been targeted by Liu Mengyan. It can only be said that he himself has problems."
Everyone agreed with this view.
Shen Ci’an lifted the curtain of the carriage to look outside, seeing Jiang Mochuan riding on a horse.
The usually stern and expressionless Jiang Mochuan now had a smile on his face, gesturing to the people on both sides.
The smile in his eyes was almost overflowing.
Shen Ci’an’s mouth curled into a sinister arc.
Just as Jiang Mochuan was smiling at the people on both sides, he suddenly sensed an unusual aura, causing a chill to run down his spine.
He often relied on his instinctive perception to avoid danger during his training journeys to boost his power.
So he involuntarily looked in the direction of the feeling and saw a carriage, with a unique totem on it—a Yun Family carriage?
He immediately saw a person pulling back the curtain of the carriage window, "Shen Ci’an!"
Jiang Mochuan recognized Shen Ci’an immediately.
Shen Ci’an’s appearance was simply too enchanting, even to the point of being indistinguishable between male and female. Furthermore, this person had an eccentric personality and was unpredictable.
They had once stayed at the Su Mansion together, occasionally interacting as Su Muyao’s former Beast Husband, though his dislike for Su Muyao kept his stay short.
Regardless, he remembered these people.
There was no way he could be mistaken; it was Shen Ci’an.
With Shen Ci’an’s return, it likely meant Su Muyao was also in the carriage.
At this thought, Jiang Mochuan’s eyes showed disgust. He turned and signaled, prompting his personal guard, Jiang Dao, to approach, "Young Master, any orders?"
"Enhance security, especially keep an eye on that carriage, don’t let anyone come over to disrupt the wedding ceremony."
Jiang Mochuan decided to marry Liu Mengyan earlier, aiming to beat Su Muyao and the others to Beast Emperor City, fearful of any mishaps.
Of course, none of the Beastmen Jiang Dao sent to teach Su Muyao a lesson returned, provoking Jiang Mochuan to think deeply.
It seems Su Muyao and the others did ally with the Yun Family; otherwise, how could they arrive at Beast Emperor City smoothly?
Jiang Dao listened to the Young Master’s orders, then looked towards the direction mentioned by the Young Master and saw the carriage.
"Young Master, it’s Su Muyao. She actually wants to sabotage Young Master’s wedding ceremony; it’s outrageous."
"I’ve never seen such a female; the Young Master explicitly despises her, yet she insists on clinging to him. Honestly, why didn’t she die on the way?"
Jiang Dao spoke in a low voice, with a tone full of disgust and loathing.
Once Su Muyao reached Beast Emperor City, their hands were tied.
"Have the hidden personnel come over to maintain order."
"Yes, Young Master."
Soon, Jiang Dao mobilized many people, fully armed escorting the wedding parade and Jiang Mochuan’s bridal gifts.
Shen Ci’an, possessing a Level 10 Superpower, clearly heard Jiang Mochuan and his subordinates despite their lowered voices.
The sudden increase in protective personnel in the entourage made him sneer coldly.
In the spacious carriage, whether it was Su Muyao or Wen Nanxi, both had greater strength than Jiang Mochuan, allowing them to hear everything clearly.
Wen Nanxi was playing chess with Su Muyao. Upon hearing these words, he accidentally used too much force, reducing the chess piece to ashes.
Su Muyao leisurely sipped her tea, looking relaxed and unbothered, "Hah, does he really believe he can secure his position as the heir of the Jiang Family?"
As she spoke, a hint of killing intent flickered in Su Muyao’s eyes.
"Wife, if you want to kill him, I’ll do it; there’s no need to dirty your hands."
Su Muyao replied indifferently, "No need. Using a sledgehammer to kill a chicken is unnecessary. To deal with Jiang Mochuan doesn’t require effort; just use others to kill him."
"The Jiang Family has more than one candidate for a successor. It’s just because he’s been raised meticulously by the family, with resources leaned towards him coupled with his talent, thus securing the heir position. But don’t forget, in his generation of Jiang Family, there are quite a few members."
"Soldiers who don’t aim to be generals are not good soldiers. Jiang Mochuan’s arrogance and obstinacy are indeed spoiled by killing him."
"Only after losing his position as the heir will there be a good show to watch."
As Su Muyao spoke, she placed the chess piece on an important spot on the board, capturing several pieces with a killing move.
Wen Nanxi laughed elegantly, "Wife, your chess move is indeed brilliant."
Hua Linye and Xiao Jihan’s power wasn’t enough to overwhelm Jiang Mochuan, so they were unaware of the conversation outside.
Listening to Su Muyao speak, their blood boiled, feeling an urge to do something big.
Though when Su Muyao spoke, she had soundproofed the carriage surroundings, preventing outsiders from hearing anything within.
Shen Ci’an let the curtain down, his long and narrow eyes filled with cold brilliance, "Wife always has a way. Jiang Mochuan looks like someone begging for a beating; I really want to thrash him."
"As if we deliberately sabotage his wedding ceremony; who does he think he is, or matter at all?"
Su Muyao said, "If this were outside the city, giving him a beating wouldn’t matter, but this is within Beast Emperor City; everything must follow the rules."
With that, Su Muyao handed the Su Family Head Token to Shen Ci’an, "Since he believes we might disrupt his wedding ceremony, if we don’t do something, we’ve failed his suspicions."
"Take my token to the Military Department and say some arrogant Beastmen maliciously blocked our carriage, hoping the Military Department can escort us home."
Just as Shen Ci’an was about to receive the token, the people from the Military Department arrived.
Commander Lord Wang came respectfully to the carriage, "Young Master Yun, apologies for being late. I’ll have the path cleared right away."
Su Muyao heard this and pulled back the carriage curtain, "Lord Wang, Young Master Yun is in the carriage beside."
At that moment, Yun Qinglan alighted from the carriage, nodded to Lord Wang, then turned to Su Muyao, silently inquiring.
Su Muyao shook her head, signaling that she was okay.
Nonetheless, she silently mouthed to him, "Thank you."
With Lord Wang present, it was inconvenient to openly converse with Yun Qinglan.
Yun Qinglan’s eyes softened into a watery smile, knowing she wouldn’t swallow Jiang Mochuan’s insult.
Then he spoke, "Lord Wang, on our way here, we encountered multiple assassination attempts, barely reaching Beast Emperor City only to find many experts blocking the road. We had no choice but to ask for your help."
