Chapter 574 This Bai Dazhuang comes with the makings of a prodigy from the moment he appears.
"Let's go too!"
Bai Yue turned around and beckoned to Zhuang Xiaoye, Ling Xuzi, and Hua Mu'an, then quickly caught up with the others.
Just then, a figure suddenly approached. Mo Sijin looked at Bai Yue and called out sweetly.
"Brother Dazhuang!"
After shouting, he even turned his head and raised his eyebrows provocatively at Yuwen Yi in the distance.
That was as if to say, "Brother Dazhuang, I was the one who struck up the conversation first!"
Yuwen Yi was already seething with anger because of the previous incident involving the Su siblings, and now, provoked by Mo Sijin's provocative gaze, he immediately lost his temper.
Just as he was about to charge forward with a snarl, Yuwen Ze grabbed his arm even harder.
"Don't be in such a hurry, kid."
Yuwen Ze lowered his voice and spoke in a tone that only the two of them could hear.
"Don't worry, with those two experts watching over things, Xiao Sijin definitely won't get away with it."
As he spoke, he gave Bai Yue a look.
Beside them stood Hua Mu'an and Ling Xuzi, like two silent yet extremely imposing gatekeepers. Though dressed in ordinary clothes, they exuded a chilling aura that kept strangers at bay.
Whenever Mo Sijin tried to get close to Bai Yue in different ways, no matter which angle he took or what excuse he used to strike up a conversation, he would be blocked by the two of them at just the right moment.
Either Hua Mu'an slightly turned to the side, just enough to block him from Bai Yue.
Either Ling Xuzi suddenly stopped and blocked his outstretched hand.
They remained silent throughout, only glancing at Mo Sijin with cold, indifferent eyes.
The meaning in his eyes couldn't be clearer.
Stop here, do not disturb.
Mo Sijin tried several times, but was blocked each time. His handsome face turned red with frustration and resentment.
However, since these two were Bai Yue's disciples, he couldn't directly lash out, and could only silently sulk in his heart.
Yuwen Yi, who witnessed this scene, was overjoyed. He found the twin brothers Hua Mu'an and Ling Xuzi more pleasing to the eye than ever before!
He secretly gave a big thumbs-up in their direction and even mouthed a sentence.
"Good job!"
Then, he excitedly rushed to Yuwen Xiao's side, urging him on with a hint of impatience.
"Father! Let's hurry up and leave, don't delay our journey up the mountain to settle down!"
Yuwen Xiao naturally saw what was happening over there. He shook his head helplessly at Hua Mu'an and Ling Xuzi's "precise isolation of harassment" behavior. Then, without further delay, he called out to the people of Feiyun Manor.
"let's go!"
"grandmother!"
Mo Sijin had no other choice but to run to Mo Qingyan's side, tugging at her sleeve and acting coquettishly, while her eyes were still fixed on Bai Yue, full of pleading.
But the other person simply patted the back of his hand, gave him a look that said "you have to rely on yourself," and walked straight toward Bai Yue. When Ling Xuzi and Hua Mu'an saw that it was Mo Qingyan, they immediately and tacitly stepped aside to make way for him, their attitude respectful and without any obstruction.
But as soon as Mo Qingyan left, Mo Sijin tried to follow, but was blocked by the two men again. Their stance was like an impregnable fortress, leaving no gaps.
Mo Sijin watched helplessly as Bai Yue walked further and further away under the close protection of the twins, while Yuwen Yi behind him deliberately went around to the front of him and turned around to make a smug face at him.
This action infuriated him so much that he stomped his feet, but there was nothing he could do. He could only reluctantly follow the group from the Sword Forging Manor, hanging his head and looking sullen the whole way.
At this moment, the two brothers, Mo Yutian and Mo Yulong, from the Sword Casting Manor, immediately spotted Yuwen Cheng holding Yuwen Tianle.
The two men exchanged a glance, then gave them a forced, insincere bow as a greeting.
Yuwen Cheng still remembered the grudge against Mo Yutian for teasing him last time, so he wasn't going to give him a friendly look.
He looked Mo Yutian up and down in a sarcastic tone, deliberately drawing out his words.
"Hey! Isn't this Brother Mo? Looking at your complexion, your injuries... have they healed? How about it, do you want me to 'take good care' of you again, help you stretch your muscles and bones, so you don't get too comfortable and your bones rust?"
Upon hearing these hurtful words, Mo Yutian's face turned ashen with anger.
He must have been blind to have fallen for the woman Yuwen Cheng was impersonating, but since this was a martial arts tournament, he couldn't make a scene on the spot, so he could only lower his head and remain silent.
Yuwen Tianle, held in Yuwen Cheng's arms, blinked his innocent big eyes and looked at Mo Yutian curiously. Suddenly, he pointed at him with his little finger and spoke in a childish voice.
"Grandpa Cheng! Is this the grandpa whose head you beat up like a pig last time? He doesn't look fat anymore!"
Upon hearing this, several people around couldn't help but secretly glance at Mo Yutian.
Upon hearing this, Yuwen Cheng immediately pretended to be serious and lectured him.
"Tianle, you can't point like that..."
He paused, deliberately glanced at Mo Yutian, and then began to speak indirectly.
"Especially for people who aren't very bright, don't point fingers randomly, lest you corrupt our smart little Tianle."
After saying that, he ignored Mo Yutian's fiery glare, picked up Yuwen Tianle, and followed Yuwen Xiao ahead in a cheerful mood.
Mo Yutian stood there, his chest heaving violently, looking at Yuwen Cheng's arrogant back, he was almost bursting with rage.
Mo Yulong, who was standing next to him, quickly patted him on the back and offered a perfunctory word of advice.
"Second brother, calm down! Don't stoop to his level. There will be plenty of opportunities to teach him a lesson later!"
Mo Yutian took a deep breath, barely managing to suppress his anger. He gritted his teeth, nodded, and reluctantly followed the group forward.
But the look in her eyes as she gazed at Yuwen Cheng's retreating figure was filled with resentment and unwillingness.
Thus, the two formidable groups from Sword Casting Manor and Flying Cloud Manor joined forces and, led by top figures such as Yinian Zhenren, Mo Qingyan, and Yuwen Xiao, marched in a grand procession up the stone steps toward Zixiao Temple at the summit.
Once the eye-catching group had gone far away, the long-suppressed discussions at the foot of the mountain erupted as if released from a spell, buzzing loudly.
Disciples from various sects gathered in small groups, their faces mostly showing resentment, jealousy, and indignation.
Bai Dazhuang, the incarnation of Bai Yue, unfortunately became the target of everyone's criticism.
After all, before today, no one in the martial arts world had ever heard of "Bai Dazhuang". He had neither famous skills nor sect foundation, yet he appeared with the qualities of a chosen one.
With the support of an old monster, and with powerful figures like Mo Qingyan, Yuwen Xiao, and Yinian Zhenren looking at her with special regard, even the most beautiful woman in the martial arts alliance and the two young masters of the three upper sects are vying for her affections.
Such good fortune naturally fueled the envy of many martial arts practitioners who had endured years of hardship, and they vented all their resentment on her.
