Chapter 142 142
The person waiting for Tenku and Huang Yuxin at the gate of the Huang family's mansion was Wang Ruyue. She was standing next to her car, playing with her phone. But when Tenku and Huang Yuxin appeared, she quickly noticed it.
"What are you doing here?" Tenku asked. He saw that the wound on Wang Ruyue's hand had healed, and her skin had regained its fairness after being burned by Huang Yuxin's attack.
But then Tenku was confused about why the two girls could wear the same clothes. They both wore sleeveless cheongsams that showed off their beautiful curves.
Huang Yuxin was red, while Wang Ruyue was white. Both of them looked very attractive in that dress, but it could attract the greedy and lustful eyes of the men who saw them.
Tenku was also fascinated when he saw Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue in those clothes, but he was never carried away by lust. Wang Haotian had mentally trained Tenku and taught him how to control his emotions, especially lust, and anger. In addition, Tenku has a goal that he must achieve. So he didn't have time to think about that.
"Of course, I came here to pick you up. Grandpa and the others were worried when they found you were going alone. So after I gave the holy water to Wang Xin, I quickly followed you to this place on my grandfather's orders." Wang Ruyue smiled and replied. Of course, that was just an excuse she made up.
Wang Ruyue was shocked when she learned that Tenku wanted to go to the Huang family residence to become Huang Yuxin's fake boyfriend. But her attention was diverted because of the holy water that Tenku gave her. Wang Ruyue was confused about how he got his hands on that thing. She wanted to ask Tenku, but she forgot that Tenku's smartphone broke after being chased by Fenrir.
But after she recalled his words, Wang Ruyue's face clouded over as she imagined Huang Yuxin and Tenku making out in the Huang family's mansion. They might do something that crosses the line; she doesn't want that to happen. Because of that, Wang Ruyue followed Tenku to the Huang family's mansion.
Fortunately, Wang Ruyue had asked Wang Xiuying to come to the competition area in her car, making it easier for her to go after Tenku.
Wang Ruyue walked over to Tenku, who had just come out of the gate, but her face changed when she noticed that the wound on Huang Yuxin's arm had disappeared. But that only lasted a moment as her expression quickly returned to normal.
Wang Ruyue knew that Tenku had also given holy water to Huang Yuxin. She wasn't jealous because she got it too. On the other hand, Wang Ruyue was happy that the wound on Huang Yuxin's hand had healed. The wound on that girl's body was due to her attack. It felt unfair if only Wang Ruyue recovered.
Originally Wang Ruyue intended to ask Tenku for another holy water to heal Huang Yuxin and her mother's wounds. But it seemed she didn't need to do anything. Wang Ruyue felt relieved because she finally knew about Tenku's purpose in pretending to be her boyfriend. Apart from helping Huang Yuxin, he also wanted to cure Huang Yuxin's mother.
Wang Ruyue realized that her worries were pointless, and she felt guilty for having bad thoughts about the two.
"Have you been waiting here long? I'm sorry for making you worry. But my business here is done. So I will return to the Wang family mansion now." Tenku said apologetically. He didn't have time to tell Wang Haotian he was going to the Huang family mansion because he was rushing to chase after Huang Yuxin.
After Tenku remembered it and wanted to give the news to that old man, he forgot that his smartphone was broken. Luckily, Wang Ruyue had conveyed it to her grandfather. But that also made Wang Ruyue come to the Huang family residence, or so the girl said.
"That's fine. I haven't been waiting long. Then, you can come back with me…." Wang Ruyue felt this was a good opportunity to spend time with Tenku. She could drop by somewhere else before returning to the Wang family residence. But before she could finish her sentence, Huang Yuxin interrupted.
"No. He will return to the Wang family mansion with me. I am the one who brought Tenku here and am indebted to him. I should at least do that for him. If I let him return with you, I will look irresponsible." Huang Yuxin stood in front of Tenku and faced Wang Ruyue head-on.
"You don't have to do that. If you take Tenku to the Wang family's mansion, you must return here, which will be troublesome for you. You'll be exhausted since you haven't returned long after the martial arts competition and fighting monsters. Besides, it was already night, and it would be too dangerous for a girl to wander outside." Wang Ruyue refused with reasonable grounds.
She couldn't allow Huang Yuxin to drive Tenku back to the Wang family's mansion because doing so would ruin her plans.
"That doesn't bother me at all. I gladly brought him back to the Wang family's mansion. After all, my condition recovered and was even better after drinking the holy water. You should already know that because you consume it too." Huang Yuxin replied stubbornly.
"I know about that, but you can't waste your time and trouble yourself by going back and forth from here to the Wang residence and back here again." Wang Ruyue didn't want to lose to Huang Yuxin.
"That's fine with me. I will..." Huang Yuxin wanted to reply to Wang Ruyue's words, but Tenku cut her off because he couldn't see them continuing their bickering.
"Alright. You don't need to argue about that matter anymore. What you both said is right. Because of that, Xin'er would drive me halfway in her car, and Yue'er would take me back to the Wang family's mansion.
It's late now, and it's not good for you to be hanging around at this hour. What do you think? If you don't agree, I will return to the Wang family's mansion on foot." Tenku said and looked at the two girls.
"We agree!" Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue answered simultaneously. They were scared because Tenku's sentence didn't sound like he was asking for their opinion but threatening. So they reluctantly had to agree. After all, what Tenku said made sense because it was fairer for both parties.
Tenku nodded satisfactorily after getting their reply and got into Huang Yuxin's car. The two girls sighed and then got into their respective vehicles. After that, the two cars left the Huang family residence.
The distance between the Huang and Wang family residence was quite far, and it took one hour by car. But Huang Yuxin suddenly stopped midway, and Wang Ruyue reflexively did the same.
Huang Yuxin stopped when she saw dozens of cars lined up not far ahead, blocking the road. Not long after, they felt an energy fluctuation from one of the cars, and the area was suddenly covered in a gigantic dome of light.
"I didn't expect them to come this fast." Tenku sighed and opened the car door.
"Who are they?" Huang Yuxin asked. Even though they were quite far apart, she could feel that they weren't ordinary people and their numbers were not small.
"Gu family. You better stay in the car because this is very dangerous." Tenku looked at Huang Yuxin and said seriously.
"No! I will come with you! Before, I might have been afraid to deal with them, but now I'm not! I can't let you face them alone!" Huang Yuxin shook her head and said with determination.
"Okay. But you still have to be careful." Tenku sighed after seeing the seriousness in her eyes. He felt that whatever he said would be useless since that girl would follow him.
"I understand." Huang Yuxin replied briefly. After the two exited the car, they saw that Wang Ruyue was already waiting outside.
"Are those people from the Gu family?" Wang Ruyue looked at Tenku and asked. She didn't look panicked by the situation. Wang Haotian had warned her to be careful because the Gu family might attack them. But Wang Ruyue didn't expect that they would be ambushed so quickly.
"Yes, you're right." Tenku answered.
Right after that, the people in the cars got out one after another. Tenku frowned when he saw them. The number of people who came to ambush him this time was more than fifty; half were cultivators in the Sky Origin realm, while the rest were in the Earth Origin realms.
Wang Ruyue's face darkened when she found some of her acquaintances among them.
"Wang Minghao! Wang Jun! Wang Xiqing! Why did you come together with the people from the Gu family!? Did you betray the Wang family!?" Wang Ruyue said angrily when she saw them. One of them was the Second Elder of the Wang family, who had always been enmity with her grandfather. The other two people are his son and grandson.
"Hahaha!" Wang Minghao laughed when he heard wang Ruyue's words.
"Betray? It was the Wang family who had betrayed me! I have contributed a lot to the family since I was young. I've also almost died several times because of tasks from them. But what do I get? I am only the second elder, and Wang Hongli is the patriarch! Even my position is below that of your grandfather! Do you know how angry I am!?
I feel humiliated because they are superior and more influential than me in the Wang family. I can only live under Wang Hongli's shadow and follow his orders even if I don't want to! What I did for the Wang family was far more than he and your grandfather! Then why am I only the second elder!?" Wang Minghao stared at Wang Ruyue with killing intent.
"You…" Wang Ruyue's body trembled under that eyes. Even though they were quite far away, she could feel Wang Minghao's hatred.
When Wang Ruyue almost fell to her knees from Wang Minghao's killing intent, Tenku appeared before her, and the pressure she felt disappeared. But before Wang Ruyue could thank him, Wang Minghao opened his mouth again.
"The ancestor of the Wang family was so unfair to me! I have harbored this hatred for so many years! But now I have the answer to my problem and know what to do! I will make the Wang family mine if they are not on my side! I will remove Wang Hongli and your grandfather from their position. After that, I will become the new patriarch of the Wang family, and the first thing I will do is kill them!" Wang Minghao looked at Tenku with bloodshot eyes and said viciously.
