Chapter 5239: 5.0991 The Uncooperative Crowd

It was truly unexpected that the one who charged over would be Mu Xiaoxue!

Qiao Mu was still fretting over not being able to find her mother, and now she had delivered herself right to her doorstep.

Qiao Mu let out a cold laugh, a glint of frost flashing in her eyes.

Since she had presented herself, then... she would reluctantly teach her a lesson on behalf of Mu Qingya.

Qiao Mu glanced back, and two hidden guards leaped forward, about to make a move on Mu Xiaoxue.

Gu Yixuan, quick-eyed and nimble-handed, stepped in front of Mu Xiaoxue, drew his long sword, and shouted, "Stop!" at the two hidden guards.

How could the two hidden guards possibly listen to his shout? They cast a disdainful glance at the sword in his hand.

One of the hidden guards made no obvious movement, yet the hilt of Gu Yixuan's sword suddenly caught fire.

The flames surged, quickly licking up his arm.

Gu Yixuan was so frightened that he quickly shook his hand, dropping his sword to the ground, and frantically patted his sleeves.

Everyone heard a "clank."

They looked down to see a perfectly good sword melted by a wisp of bright yellow fire, leaving only half a hilt, intermittently crackling under sparks.

Everyone was stunned, foolishly looking up at Gu Yixuan, whose face was as black as a pot.

Mu Xiaoxue felt a surge of anger rush to her chest.

Damn it!

How embarrassing!

What use is something that can't even hold its own sword?

Just like that Zhao Yi, all of them are utterly useless trash, worthless garbage.

Mu Xiaoxue's heart swelled with rage, but her face still maintained that elegant and refined smile.

"Senior Brother Gu, please don't get into a conflict with the Crown Princess. There are just some minor misunderstandings between us; we can clear them up."

Mu Xiaoxue called out softly, gently pushing Gu Yixuan.

Gu Yixuan took the cue and quickly retreated, muttering, "Junior sister, you're just too kind, you talk to her then."

Mu Xiaoxue clenched her fists in anger, coldly watching the man retreat behind her, cursing Gu Yixuan, the cowardly man, for eighteen generations in her heart.

Unexpectedly, among the onlookers who loved drama, an auntie laughed aloud, "Haha, young man, I advise you to go back quickly. You want to play the hero rescuing the beauty, but you need real skills for that!"

"Exactly." Everyone chimed in with laughter. "Before our Crown Princess's subordinates, a person who can't even last one move, young man, don't show off. Hurry up and take your junior sister and roll away with your tail between your legs."

The crowd burst into uproarious laughter.

When Qi Xuanxuan pulled Little Liner over, this was the scene she witnessed.

She couldn't help but wonder, "Eh? What's wrong with these people? Why do they all seem to be helping our Qiao Qiao speak?"

Little Fatty Kou Hongwen couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, muttering softly, "They have to help, even if they don't want to. Our Qiao isn't someone with a good temper. If they don't help her and get beaten, no one can save them."

"What are you saying??" Qi Xuanxuan immediately raised her voice.

She hated hearing anyone say her Qiao was fierce, not even Little Fatty!

Her Qiao was the kindest little fairy in the world, with a soft spot in her heart. Hmph, she wasn't the fierce little devil star that the world spoke of.

Little Fatty quickly chuckled, "Ah, nothing, nothing, just saying how pretty Qiao Qiao is. Look, from afar, Qiao Qiao's belly is huge! Do you think it might be twins?"
