Chapter 810 - Of Course you have Reasons to Hurt Him

He then turned to mumble directly towards Jun Yexuan, “That’s true. He failed to get the girl that he spent three years pursuing. That girl was taken away by some stranger in the middle of his pursuit. Based on that kid’s personality, you must’ve clashed with him.”

Jun Yexuan was silent.

Yin Lei didn’t seem to mind as he glanced over to the firefox wrapped around Mu Jinghang’s leg, “What is that thing? A fox?”

The firefox almost puked out blood at the first half of that sentence. But the second half calmed it down.

So that guy could see that it was part of the royal fox family.

While the fox thought that, Xia Houshang suddenly added, “Ah, so it’s a fox. I was wondering why a pig looked like that. Is that fox pregnant?”

The firefox, “…”

“Ack, ack, ack!”

You’re the ****ing pig!

“Ack, ack, ack!”

You’re the ***** who’s pregnant!

“Ack, ack, ack!”

I’m a boy!

Cursing wasn’t enough for the fox. It tried to leap off Mu Jinghang’s leg and attack Xia Houshang.

Xia Houshang saw its intention and grabbed the gun that was tucked in her belt.

Qiao Qing’s expression changed and she concentrated a wave of energy to divert Xia Houshang’s bullet.

With a bang, the bullet grazed across Yin Lei’s sleeve.

Qiao Qing said to the fox, “Come back.”

The firefox grumbled and jumped into Qiao Qing’s arms. It rubbed itself against Qiao Qing to express its dissatisfaction.

Yin Lei, who was almost hit by the bullet, made a face, “What did you do that for?!”

Xia Houshang grabbed her own wrist, “I apologize, Emperor Yin, as you can see, that firefox tried to attack me. I wanted to shoot it to death but a wave of energy made me miss my shot.”

She then glared at Qiao Qing, “That energy came from you, right, Ms. Qiao? I’ve heard that you know ancient martial arts.”

Qiao Qing admitted it right away, “That’s right. You dare to hurt Red? The lesson I taught you was a light one.”

The firefox was ecstatic and curled its tail around Qiao Qing’s arm. For the first time, it didn’t think the name Red was too bad.

Xia Houshang snickered, “This animal is wild and dared to attack a person. Isn’t it only right that I beat it to death?”

“Ms. Qiao, you say I am hurting it – that’s such an upside-down thing to say. It’s no wonder that animal acted untrained.”

“You may want to save your pet, but why must you hit my arm so my bullet hits the Emperor?”

“If it weren’t for my effort at controlling it, Emperor Yin would’ve been hit! As Yexuan’s girlfriend, Ms. Qiao, you are willing to kill his grandpa just because of one unhappy occurrence!?”

Her words resulted in Emperor Yin looking over at Qiao Qing with an ugly look.

Qiao Qing’s calmness was almost disrespectful, “You said something to hurt the fox. It’s only normal that it attacked you. Animals need respect as well. Do you know how hurtful your words were towards an animal that cares about its weight?”

“Plus, the energy I shot at you could only result in your gun diverting by 37 degrees. You’re the one who aimed at Emperor Yin. There’s nothing I can do about that.”

The firefox was extremely appreciative.

Xia Houshang on the other hand exploded, “Ms. Qiao, you must take responsibility for your words. The Emperor treats me like his own granddaughter – why would I hurt him? Nobody here knows martial arts so naturally, nobody here can confirm what you’re saying. Is this why you are making things up?”

Qiao Qing said, “Since there’s no way to prove what I said, there’s also no way to prove what you said. Plus, you definitely have reasons to hurt him and… make me the scapegoat.”
