Chapter 173: Two Supporting Male Characters

But those were all considerations for the future. Right now, her current thoughts were entirely preoccupied by when she could set her feet on solid ground again! Being carried about here and there really left a person speechless. She wanted to throw up, but couldnt; she wanted to faint, but didnt. Even if she wanted him to stop and rest for awhile, she couldnt open her mouth to speak the words.

It really was a living torment. Bai Xiangxiu felt like incense smoke was constantly spinning around and around in her eyes until it left her dizzy. Suddenly, a streak of white shot by one side. All she felt was that the sight looked familiar, but she couldnt continue that thought because her head was on the verge of exploding. Meanwhile, the other figure suddenly stopped before turning back to chase after them.

Put her down, thief! This voice this voice seemed to belong to the supporting male, Song Jiaoyue. Her savior was here. Quick, stop him!

However, Yu Kuang simply increased his speed at the sound of his voice. They couldnt run any further. At this rate, theyd bypass the capital entirely. Bai Xiangxiu couldnt be bothered with much else and reached out with her hand to pinch something. She didnt care whether it was an arm or a butt, but it was to remind him to stop. But as it turned out, she ended up pinching his waist. How could Yu Kuang be unaffected by a sudden attack there while he was running?

He sucked in a breath lightly before stopping to look down at Bai Xiangxiu with furrowed brows, not understanding. That momentary pause was enough for Song Jiaoyue to catch up to them. He noticed that the man didnt seem too wicked or evil, but once his eyes met her clear and delicate ones, he instantly felt an urge to pull that woman into his own arms.

So without further ado, he flung out a punch. Let her go!

Who are you? Yu Kuang easily evaded the blow as he held onto Bai Xiangxius waist and started fighting with Song Jiaoyue.

Bai Xiangxiu felt like flipping a table. Fight all you want, but why drag me along? Hold it, you two! She finally shouted, her voice piercing the eardrums of the two males. While they were staring, dumbstruck, at her, she struggled free of Yu Kuangs grip to kneel on one side with dry heaves.

Song Jiaoyue only felt a heavy blow to his heart as he backed up a step in surprise. You, if its like this, then you are you having a

Have? what have? He made me so woozy, I almost threw up last nights dinner! Bai Xiangxiu shot a glance at Yu Kuang, only to see his face remain as cold and noble as always.

Only then did Song Jiaoyue release his held breath and walk over to help her up. Its about time I found you. Just what kind of person took you out of the manor?

It was that man called Luo Yunzheng urk She was about to give her hand to Song Jiaoyue when it was batted away.

Will this friend please conduct yourself with dignity. This woman is my future wife. Yu Kuang said without an ounce of politeness. He had a guess that this man was none other than Bai Xiangxius husband. He looked all right and had good martial arts to match, but the sight of them acting familiar with each other made him uncomfortable.

You two since when Song Jiaoyue gave a start. He trusted that Bai Xiangxiu wasnt that kind of woman, but this man didnt seem like the type to speak heresy either.

How should I know since when? Bai Xiangxiu glanced at Yu Kuang, not knowing why hed spoken such words.

But Yu Kuang simply placed her behind him before saying, Since you know martial arts, we can have a match. If I win, shell belong to me. Hows that?

What, what? What Ill belong to you? But before she could finish, he struck her acupoint and rendered her mute.

Song Jiaoyue clenched his fists and said coldly, We dont have the right to decide for her sake, so I ask that you hand her over. Ill bring her to somewhere safe. But if you have any connection to Luo Yunzheng, dont blame me for being rude.

I dont have the slightest connection to Luo Yunzheng. Dont you want her? Then you have to fight me for her.

In the jianghu, people resolved conflicts in such a simple manner like this. Moreover, Yu Kuang deeply abhorred the look in the other mans eyes.

Song Jiaoyue saw Bai Xiangxiu staring at him from behind the other man as she waved her hands back and forth. She was obviously trying to tell him not to agree to this mans terms! He couldnt help but smile slightly. Dont worry, Ill make sure youre safe.

Bai Xiangxiu rolled her eyes. Yu Kuang wasnt Luo Yunzheng, so there was nothing dangerous about staying by his side, alright? But men were always impulsive like this. The two of them actually started fighting.

She was cut off from any more communication as their fight blasted into action, the flurry of blows passing too quickly for her to see. She couldnt even make out the figures amidst the furious back and forth. She didnt dare rush out to stop them, because she was sure shed be sent flying by a punch if she tried. Meanwhile, the two men were both astonished by each other. One couldnt fight at full speed and strength because of his obstructed blood circulation, while the other was no match for him originally.

As a result, because of various reasons, they ended up with a tie. In the end, fighting became meaningless, so they halted at the same time.

Bai Xiangxiu looked at them both before picking up a branch to write, Song Jiaoyue isnt my husband; dont seek trouble for yourself. Then she wrote on, Hes my lifesaver, so dont hurt him, Sir Song. Finally shed explained herself. She blinked at Yu Kuang, hinting that he could unseal her acupoint now!

Yu Kuang tapped her acupoint, and she could finally speak again.

Sir Song, this Sir Yu saved me from Luo Yunzhengs clutches. Hes currently taking me back to the capital.

Song Jiaoyue looked at Sir Yu and only smiled coldly. Oh? How could we have Alliance Head Yu personally send you back? Why not have this one take over from here so you can go back to your busy affairs.

Yu Kuang only said mildly, Since youre not her husband, what kind of person are you to her? Im looking for her husband.

What are you looking for her husband for?

Song Jiaoyue didnt think this man was really planning to hand Bai Xiangxiu over to her husband. As expected, Yu Kuangs next words were, To ask for her hand in marriage. I want to take her as my wife.

Song Jiaoyues tone turned severe. Shut your mouth! This was something even he could only dream of, but this man had spoken those same words so easily. How could he keep his temper in the face of something like this?

Bai Xiangxiu had never seen Song Jiaoyue so incensed and was frightened to the point of shaking. Indeed, men were still men in the end. No matter how good their tempers were, it was still scary when they lost it. Still, she couldnt blame him when Yu Kuangs words were this infuriating.

Sir Yu, Ive said it before. I have a husband and were doing very well together. He wont agree to me marrying you. So, many thanks for bringing me to this point, you should go back to take care of your own matters! She raised a hand to move him aside, but caught Yu Kuang staring at her. It felt like an abandoned puppy was looking out from his eyes, making her rub her head instead of chasing him away.

Song Jiaoyue however, had already seized the chance to pull her to his side, before letting go of her hand as if hed been burned. This one is the friend of this womans husband. I came out this time to search for her. Many thanks to Alliance Head Yu for this lifesaving debt. However, I believe that a proper and upright Wulin Alliance Head wont force a woman to repay such kindness with herself, correct?

Though Song Jiaoyues words were respectful, they also served as a warning for Yu Kuang to be mindful of his status.
