How Dare You

He Tao and A Ning looked at each other. Meanwhile, Ning was a bit stumped after being pushed hard against the tree earlier, while the mysterious young man in front of him had not even raised his hand and killed the guy at a split of seconds. They didn't see him take anything out of his hands, he killed such a shrewd man with just a few moves.

"Young Master Yang, now we don't know who sent him to harm Yuen'er," said He Tao.

Dai Yang glanced at He Tao with sharp eyes, clenching his fists.

"Who else, they're from the Black Flower group, that's clear enough, I'll finish off that whole party"

His flat voice as he spoke with sharp eyes filled with a burning murderous aura as he passed He Tao gave the man goosebumps.

"Master" A Ning approached.

He Tao helped A Ning walk.

"Let's go back to the hut"

...

In the Oei hut.

He Tao stood in front of Er Yuen's bed where Elder Oei finished checking on the kid. Dai Yang was standing not far by the bed still with his stern aura. Meanwhile, A Ning sat in front of the table slightly injured from the enemy's attack earlier. Seen A He treats it.

"Akh, be careful" A Ning moaned.

Mei Lan lifted Er Yuen's blanket and turned to wait for Elder Oei's explanation.

"Luckily, Young Master Yang blocked the blood path in time so the poison didn't reach Yuen'er's heart. This poison isn't lethal but it will put Yuen'er into a coma if it reaches his heart, at least it will be in a very dangerous condition mixed with other poisons that are still in his body. Heh, that assailant is not ordinary"

He Tao agreed.

"Certainly not an ordinary person, from his stance at least he level three elder of the Black Flower party. His martial skills to secret weapons are quite adept, even Ning and I can't handle it even though we have attacked him at once"

He Tao glanced at Dai Yang who didn't stop seeing Er Yuen's face, should however thank that person for saving the kid on time.

"Young Master Yang, thanks for your help, we don't know what would have happened to Yuen'er if you weren't here"

Dai Yang was still clenching his fists.

"I was late, let my guard down a bit and gave the enemy a chance, there won't be another time"

.....

Kreek.

The door being open and close again.

The old Eunuch Wen seat with his long hair lose after the warm bath. His assistant help him combed it.

A guard ask permission to enter and bowed in front of the eunuch.

"Report, there's a letter for you, my Lord" the young guard handed a small folded brown paper with his both hands. The young eunuch take it and handed it to his Lord gentle.

"My Lord"

The old Eunuch take the letter. While the young eunuch tell the guard to leave them. The young guard nodded and step backward to the door.

The old eunuch finished reading the letter content and hand it back to his assistant.

"Fool, they can't even do the small task. What a useless"

The young eunuch know what he have to do with the letter. He approach the table and brought the paper close to the fire and burned it. Let the flames get bigger and vanish the brown paper to nothing.

"We still have lots of chance, My Lord" said the young eunuch. The old Eunuch stroke his long silver hair. Take a deep breath.

"Yeah, but the Emperor may not have that much time. He will order his best guard to bring the kid home. We can't let that happens"

.....

The air blew warm from the valley.

Several new shadows shot down from the top of the trees stopping in front of Dai Yang who was standing by the river not far behind Oei's hut. The shadow of the person who was none other than Pai and his men knelt before Dai Yang.

"My King!"

Dai Yang waved his hand.

"Pai, bring chairman Kang and his men to visit our neighbours. I don't want to know what you are going to do, before nightfall I want to see the big party building razed to the ground, bring the chairman's head in front of me"

Pai and his men bowed their heads in unison.

"Yes, My King. We will carry it out!"

Little birds flew as Dai Yang's subordinates nimbly dashed away among the trees. Leaves the quiet behind.

...

The next morning at the Moon Clan College.

Eunuch Wen sat waiting for his subordinates to prepare all the herbal medicines that Hua Yang and his students had prepared. Hua Yang walk closer to the old Eunuch.

"Greetings, My Lord, all these herbal medicines will be sufficient for the next three months, that is the longest period for fresh medicine. I hope Lord willing to wait for the next medicine in three months," said HuaYang.

Eunuch Wen enjoyed his delicious tea, he waved his hand.

"Heh, it can't be helped. By the way, I haven't seen Elder Oei since yesterday, what is his busy life that is so important that he refuses to see me?"

Hua Yang glanced around, he couldn't even find He Tao everywhere. According to A Mo in the hut, there was an attack on Er Yuen and everyone was busy looking at his condition. In fact, if it wasn't for the eunuch visiting he would also like to go there to see the kid.

"Eh, Please forgive him, My Lord, Elder Oei is treating a critical patient and can't be left behind, I will send a student to remind him."

Eunuch Wen stood up from his seat.

"Don't bother Chairman Hua, how about we visit him? I heard the view of the Lotus valley is very refreshing to the eyes and I haven't even had time to go for a walk, let's just visit it and stretch our legs at the same time"

Hua Yang stuttered, he didn't expect the Eunuch to think there.

"Eh, eh, what's appropriate, my Lord, for a high-ranking official, Elder Oei's cottage is just an ordinary shabby hut, I'm afraid you will found it uncomfortable there."

Eunuch Wen chuckled.

"Hehehe chairman Hua, how could I, I come from a poor family, what a shabby hut I've never seen before. Em Yo'er, prepare our carriage to leave"

Eunuch Yo bowed his body.

"Ready, Kung Kung" he stretched out his hand to help the old eunuch walk.

Hua Yang stuttered, he glanced at A Mo who immediately knew what he had to do. The young man lowered his head and rushed out of the room through the side door.

.....

Er Yuen smiled as he saw A Ning who was teasing him while sitting by his bed.

"Brother"

A Ning tried on the bunny paper mask that he had bought from the city for Er Yuen since he was little. He often spent his time lying on the bed so A Ning feel bad for him.

"Hehe, this is so adorable, later Brother A Ning will take you to a circus show that is stopping in the center of the city, let's do it after you feel better, okay?"

Er Yuen nodded, Aning stroked his hair gently and patted his hand.

"Are you really alright now?" A Ning asked, Er Yuen nodded. Although he is still weak, even lifting his hand is difficult but he has got better, only leaving little nausea in his stomach.

"I'm fine, Brother, you no need to stay here any longer, the chairman will be looking for you. I heard that the Palace envoy hasn't left yet, right?"

Aning shook his head.

"So what? That Palace's envoy is just elders who have too much time visiting people's house to show the palace's power over us, heh those bullier"

While talking, someone appeared and stopped in front of the door, Dai Yang who wasn't waiting to be called approached.

"Yen Yen"

Er Yuen raised his head to see Dai Yang approaching. He remembered very clearly how the young man save him when he was attacked last night, he save him again.
