Who exactly was it that dared to bully my daughter? Tell me their names! This senior will wipe them all out!” A ferocious expression could be seen on Dugu Wudi’s face. Watching his dear daughter cry to the point where her eyes had become swollen, he could not help but feel his heart aching. A sound roared within him: I want to vent this fury!
“Father,” Dugu Xiaoyi stared at her father and continued. “You must help get justice for me.”
Dugu Wudi was suddenly beset by a sense of foreboding: Could it be that my daughter was… He could not help but become nervous. “Who is it?”
“Who else if not that stinking brat, Jun Moxie from the Jun Family! Today, he provoked me to the point of death! Father, you must help me exact justice!” Dugu Xiaoyi pouted and said in an aggrieved manner.
Holding it in for a whole day, Dugu Xiaoyi had been waiting for her father to come back so that she could complain to him. After that, she would ask her father to bring her brothers together to beat up Jun Moxie and take back the Meteoric Iron while they were at it. She knew that asking these of her mother was pointless, as her mother would not agree. Thus, she did not.
After hearing Dugu Xiaoyi’s words, Dugu Wudi gave out a sigh of relief: It turned out that I was worried for nothing. Ah, I feel much better knowing that did not happen. After that, he frowned and said. “Hehe, my good daughter. if it was someone else, this senior would have no fear at all. Even if it were one of the Princes, I would still go catch him and give him a beating for your sake. But if it is Jun Moxie, that would be rather difficult considering the current situation.” Of course it would be difficult. As of right now, not even Jun Zhantian could tell the whereabouts of his grandson. How could Dugu Wudi locate him? Even if he successfully manage to locate him, he may not have the courage to lay his hands on him! That old thing had thoroughly lost it this time…
“Could it be that father is afraid of the Juns? My life is so bitter! Argh, I am so angry I could die!” Dugu Xiaoyi started crying again. She turned her body and turned her face the other way. For some unknown reason, whenever she recalled Jun Moxie’s face, she felt an urge to beat him up. An inexplicable fury would rise up from within her heart, giving birth to the desire to beat away that detestable smile off his face.
“Sigh! That is not the case,” Watching his daughter cry out again, Dugu Wudi felt helpless and quickly tried to explain. “The truth is, this brat… Sigh, we do not even know if he is still alive or not. We cannot even find him. Let’s wait until he is found before we proceed. Later on, father will definitely help my dear daughter get her revenge! We will take good ‘care’ of that brat!”
“Ah? You do not know whether he is alive or not? What happened to him?” For some unknown reason, Dugu Xiaoyi felt a stabbing pain in her heart. She turned around, her wide-open tear filled eyes gazed at her father. At the same time, a sense of fear welled up within her… What am I feeling fearful for?
“I heard that Princess Ling Meng had suffered from an assassination attempt tonight. That bastard who does not know his own limits tried to send a message to the Princess. In the end, the Princess was saved but that debauchee ended up becoming the scapegoat.”
Dugu Wudi’s face was a mask of exultation. He did not take note of the pale face on his daughter’s face after she heard his words, her small hands clutched tightly together. Dugu Wudi continued. “… His chest was stabbed once. After that, a Silver Xuan assassin kicked his chest several times. In the end, someone took him away. As of now, we do not even know where he is. The way I see it, that brat’s life is hanging by a thread.”
Dugu Xiaoyi gave a light moan as she became petrified. She suddenly felt as though her heart had turned into a void of nothingness. Her mind became a complete mess; not a single word from Dugu Wudi’s mouth registered within her mind. Even his voice had seemingly become distant and unclear…
