Behind them, there were several people. Some were from the Yagami family, and the rest were brought by the mouse-faced man.
Without exception, all of them were harboring murderous intent in their eyes.
My gaze was mostly directed towards the mouse-faced man.
I was mostly worried about Kanako Yagami.
The ugly appearance of the mouse-faced man stirred up an intense feeling of disgust from the bottom of my heart.
Even this sorcerer family is not worthy of coveting Kanako Yagami.
My expression became colder, and the same murderous intent flickered in my eyes.
"Ro Xian Sheng!" The icy tone of voice came from the middle-aged man's mouth: "As I said clearly last night, you also left my Yagami family last night. Today, you again intruded into my Yagami family, injured my tribe members and guests. What do you mean? What is your purpose!?"
"Do you think I, Kanako Kongo, am a soft peach that you can squeeze whenever you want, or do you think my Yagami family is a kind house that anyone can come and go as they please?"
Beside her, Kanako Yagami's mother's eyes also shone with loathing.
However, there were several people behind the mouse-faced man who seemed eager to try.
My expression remained unchanged, maintaining the murderous intent towards the mouse-faced man.
Then, in a cold tone, I said, "I did say to leave, but I also said to watch over Kanako Yagami's safety. But if you are using such scurrilous methods, trading Kanako Yagami for family protection and fulfilling an agreement that is not meant for her, then you are not just overstepping the line; you are failing as parents."
My words were very harsh, with no room for compromise.
In fact, I have no relationship with the Yagami family at all.
Kanako Yagami has no room for compromise, and I have no way to be diplomatic.
The middle-aged man, who was Kanako Kongo, made a muffled groan. His face turned alternately green and red.
Clearly, my words had at least somewhat hurt him.
The women nearby, as well as the members of the Yagami family behind them, also became unpredictable.
"Ha ha." The mouse-faced man's laughter was high-pitched and hoarse. He said, "You're a sharp-tongued young fellow. You don't have much power, but you sure talk a lot of bull. The Yagami family and my Zhou family have been related by marriage for over ten generations. Every generation of the Yagami family has had a daughter marry into the Zhou family. Who do you think you are to interfere in this matter?"
I narrowed my eyes slightly, my hands subtly moving, and every inch of my body tensed up.
Without hesitation, I leaned forward suddenly.
Crossing my arms, the blades gave off a faint sound of cutting through the air.
A flash of white light appeared, ready to strip off the scalp of the mouse-faced man!
His eyes suddenly changed, and he leaned backwards violently, adopting a iron board bridge position, and dodged my blade.
He kicked hard on the ground with his legs and flew backward.
Kanako Kongo and the woman took a startled step back.
The rest of the members of the Yagami family behind them, as well as the people behind the mouse-faced man, all showed angry expressions and advanced towards me, either trying to grab my wrist or pulling out short knives to stab me in the chest!
I suddenly twisted my body!
My arms moved rapidly around me!
A series of muffled groans were heard, and there were at least seven or eight of them, all staggering backward.
Whether it was their arms or chests, all of them were wounded.
I have long expected the skills of the Yagami family.
Their martial prowess is not strong.
But I really didn't expect that this mouse-faced man, a protector from the sorcerer family that supports the Yagami family, would be so weak as well?
"What kind of skills do you have to protect the Yagami family? Force Kanako Yagami?" I tightened my brow.
However, I did not mock or disdain them.
Firstly, that's not my habit, and secondly, I have a hunch that the weakness in martial skills might indicate strength in other areas.
They might have some other abilities that they cannot demonstrate during the day.
In that case, I need to accelerate my actions even more!
At least get Kanako Yagami out of the current predicament!
A thought flashed across my mind, and my heart became even more calm.
I charged out three steps to the right abruptly.
I reached Kanako Kongo's side!
Kanako Yagami's mother was right beside him!
I struck out my elbow forcefully, and it hit Kanako Kongo's chest with a bang.
His face turned crimson, and he was pushed back with a muffled groan.
Without hesitation, I grabbed Kanako Yagami's mother in one hand and held a thin razor against her throat!
All of this happened within a span of one to two minutes.
Kanako Yagami's mother's body was tense, and she was frightened, her expression disoriented.
"Ro Xian Sheng, you dare!" Kanako Kongo was shocked and terrified.
"Dare!"
"You're courting death! Ro Xian Sheng!"
Overlapping voices, coming from the other members of the Yagami family, were heard.
"Where does Kanako Yagami live?" I asked in a cold tone.
Kanako Yagami's mother did not answer. Instead, her body trembled even more violently, and her voice became sharp and shrill: "Dare you kill me? If you kill me, you will be an enemy to my daughter!"
My expression remained unchanged, and I became even more silent, maintaining a calm mind.
"Better than forcing Kanako Yagami into a life of constant fear and suffering, I'm not a good person myself." I replied in a calm tone as I slightly pressed down my hand, the blade pressing against Kanako Yagami's mother's neck skin.
Blood droplets oozed out instantly from the thin wound.
Suddenly, the surroundings became completely silent.
The faces of the Yagami family became even greener, but they dared not speak anymore.
The mouse-faced man had long stood up straight, his face dark and menacing as he stared at me.
The people he had brought were all standing around him, and the murderous intent in their eyes grew even more intense.
"The West Wing...another corner of the main hall..."
It was Kanako Kongo who spoke, his eyes becoming as fierce and menacing as a beast's.
"Ro Xian Sheng, what if you meet Kanako Yagami?"
"Do you dare to reflect on your words from yesterday, were they heartfelt and sincere?"
"Since you claim to have no affection for my daughter, what are you scheming for?"
"Carefully monitoring the every move of my family, aren't you manipulating Kanako Yagami by playing with her heart?"
Kanako Kongo's voice became extremely hoarse, filled with not just fury but also deep-seated hatred in his eyes.
"I knew it! None of you outsiders are any good!"
"Kanako Yagami said that you have a blood relationship with the Sun family. Sun Daichang is your uncle, and Sun Zhuo is your cousin. I see, you two are similar!"
"You're no different from how you've been thinking about Kanako Yagami. What are you doing in my family, pretending to be something you're not!"
A stream of words burst from Kanako Kongo's mouth in a torrent!
My emotion, which had remained unchanged until Kanako Kongo compared me with Sun Zhuo, became uncontrollably sinister.
The image of Sun Zhuo's shadow enveloping the wall like a malevolent ghost flashed through my mind.
And I was reminded of the scenes in the ghost house and the Tian Shou Tao Chang using the corporeal ghost to create hallucinations...
In the end, the image before me froze, showing Sun Zhuo as a kind brother, taking care of and tolerating me.
All of it crumbled instantly!
"If I am like Sun Zhuo, I will kill you."
My coldness in this sentence wasn't just simple killing intent and darkness, but felt like a chill that penetrated through the body as if there was a gust of earthly energy.
Kanako Kongo's face changed.
His forehead was drenched with sweat, and he dared not speak another word.
I took Kanako Yagami's mother and rushed towards the direction she mentioned.
During this time, we passed by the mouse-faced man, who was staring fiercely at me. However, he did not advance but instead retreated, as if trying to avoid me.
Just that, his eyes were not filled with fear, but rather more coldness.
His actions and demeanor made me understand even clearer.
During the day, he is definitely hindered!
At night, something will inevitably happen!
The sunlight gradually turned into orangish-red, and the sky at this time could be considered dusk.
In a blink of an eye, we reached the front of the hall, then crossed through the main hall, and arrived at the corner of the corridor on the other side.
As I walked, there was a continuous sound of footsteps behind me.
Kanako Kongo and the other members of the Yagami family followed me...
Only the mouse-faced man and his men were absent.
After the corner, there was a row of very long cubicles that were identical to the ones where Kanako and I had lived before.
"Which room?" I asked in a very calm tone.
"Go... go ahead..." Kanako Yagami's mother's voice trembled.
Immediately, she choked out: "Ro Xian Sheng, our Kanako family has not offended you in any way. You don't like my daughter."
"If you don't like her, and you also deny that you're interested in her fate, why did you have to cause a ruckus in my Kanako family?"
"Kanako Yagami has been kind to you. Her marriage to the Zhou family is the best choice for her..."
"You can't offend the Zhou family. Even if you took Kanako out now, it would be impossible for her to leave the city of Daxing."
"If you stop now, I will tell the Zhou family not to make any moves against you."
"You..." Kanako Yagami's mother even had a feeling of pleading.
My footsteps suddenly came to a halt!
Because, the door in front of me, suddenly opened!
What I saw was Kanako Yagami!
She was wearing a clean white dress, her hair pulled up, and her originally pure appearance now had a hint of sorrow and resilience.
But the look in Kanako Yagami's eyes was one of shock and surprise.
In an instant, her resolute eyes trembled and misty.
"Kanako..."
Kanako Yagami's mother's voice also trembled.
Kanako Yagami's mother's tone immediately became chaotic.
"He, Ro Xian Sheng, injured your father and almost killed me! He admitted that he and Sun Zhuo have the same goal. They are part of the same gang!"
In her panic, there was also a sharpness.
It only dawned on me that her panic was not because I had grabbed her, but pretend.
It was clear that she wanted to create dissension!
Originally, I had raised my hand to knock her unconscious.
However, Kanako Yagami tightly clamped her lips, and more water vapor appeared in her eyes, making her eyes red.
"Mom! Why do you all think that you're so smart, wanting to control me while deceiving me?"
"Ro Xian Sheng could be in cahoots with anyone, but he could never be related to Sun Zhuo!"
Kanako Yagami's voice shook even more, but was more determined!
My hand also stopped, and the complicated feelings I had for Kanako Yagami turned into another surge of emotions.
I just felt pain in my heart.
My hand released Kanako Yagami's mother.
I took a step forward and stood next to Kanako Yagami!
In close proximity, I could feel Kanako Yagami's body tremble slightly, as if she hadn't expected me to come so close.
In the next second, I reached out and grabbed Kanako Yagami's waist.
A delicate waist in my hand, as soon as she fell into my arms, I used all my might to push off with both legs, lifting both Kanako Yagami and myself up in the air. We jumped up onto the eaves.
Below us diagonally, Kanako Kongo and his group hurriedly chased after us.
I and Kanako Yagami helped support Kanako Yagami's mother.
The rest of them glared at me with fierce eyes.
Kanako Yagami was breathing rapidly, and her face was filled with panic.
"You can't take me with you... The Zhou family has arrived, and you're not their match..."
"Let me go, and you quickly leave yourself!"
Kanako Yagami struggled fiercely, and I instinctively tightened my grip.
It was unintentional, but this degree of tightening actually unintentionally embraced Kanako Yagami in my arms.
