Chapter 48 Yuwen Chengdu: My brother has died. I would be grateful if Your Excellency would go and o
Inside the Marquis's residence, Yuwen Chengdu finally met Lü Xiao.
But when they stood face to face, he stammered and couldn't utter a coherent sentence for a long time.
For an introverted person like him, who is straightforward and not good at speaking, this is remarkable.
Lying to someone's face or devising a scheme to deceive them is a hundred times more difficult than going into battle.
"General Tianbao, what brings you here?"
Lu Xiao really didn't understand what this big oaf was trying to do standing there.
Could it be that Yuwen Chengdu is actually from Chengdu and has designs on him?
"I, I, this, that..."
Yuwen Chengdu couldn't bring himself to say it; he couldn't very well tell him to leave the Marquis's residence immediately.
Her Highness the Princess has already arranged for people to wait for you to walk into her trap.
"Did your brother die?"
Seeing his hesitant and embarrassed expression, Lü Xiao guessed in the most reasonable direction.
Yuwen Chenglong, that demonic pill, can't stand not causing trouble every day. Sooner or later, he'll be beaten to death by his powerful and ruthless father.
I just didn't expect it to happen so quickly. He was so lively just a moment ago, and now he's gone.
Alas, what a pity.
"what……"
Yuwen Chengdu nodded thoughtfully.
If Lü Xiao can leave the mansion this way, then Yuwen Chenglong can die.
Please accept my condolences.
Lu Xiao sighed and patted Yuwen Chengdu on the shoulder.
Lu Xiao felt it was a great pity that others had died young.
However, Yuwen Chenglong, this great demon, still died young.
"Jackie Chan respected Lord Hou very much during his lifetime, so Lord Hou, please go and offer him some incense."
"Of course, of course."
Lu Xiao nodded solemnly and straightened his robes.
In any case, although Yuwen Chenglong was unreliable, he had done his best to help me.
Now that the person is gone, it is only right and proper to hold a memorial service and send this demon ball off on its final journey.
Yuwen Chengdu followed behind Lü Xiao and in the blink of an eye, they left the Marquis's mansion.
Watching Lü Xiao walk unhesitatingly towards the Yuwen Mansion across the street, he mumbled in a low voice, "Sorry."
"Oh, right," Lu Xiao suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked a little embarrassed.
"Do you have any money? I was in a hurry and forgot to bring any."
Since we're going to a banquet, it would be unreasonable not to even prepare a white envelope (a traditional Chinese gift of money).
"..."
Yuwen Chengdu's facial muscles twitched violently, and he froze on the spot.
Is this a human being?
If a kind-hearted person goes to offer condolences, they might turn around and ask the bereaved family for money to contribute to the funeral expenses.
This isn't just getting something for nothing; it's taking advantage of someone's misfortune!
The slight feeling of guilt that had just welled up in my heart vanished instantly, disappearing without a trace.
"You don't think I'm not going to pay it back, do you?"
Lu Xiao felt that his credit score was quite high, and he didn't even need to scan his face to scan a shared bicycle.
Look at Yang Guang, he wanted to be the Khan, and he just made it happen.
"have."
Yuwen Chengdu squeezed out the word through gritted teeth, expressionless, and took his money pouch from his waist, handing it over.
"I thank you on behalf of your brother."
Lu Xiao hung the money bag on his waist; he did this for Yuwen Chenglong.
Across the street was the Yuwen residence. When Lü Xiao looked up, he saw that there were no white lanterns hanging under the eaves to represent a funeral, nor were there any white curtains or silks in front of the door.
Poor Jackie Chan, he was disliked by his father while he was alive.
Even if they die, they won't get a decent funeral.
Yuwen Huaji, that father, is really heartless.
The next moment, Lü Xiao saw a teenager suddenly rush towards him.
The visitor was none other than Pei Yuanqing.
He had been waiting there for a long time, his eyes fixed on the gate of the Marquis Wen's residence.
Upon seeing the target appear, he could not contain himself and flew to meet it.
"Lu Zilie!"
Pei Yuanqing stopped a few steps in front of Lü Xiao, raised his head, showed no fear, and called him by his given name.
"Um?"
Lu Xiao looked at the other person with a puzzled expression. Whose child was not being watched properly?
Pei Yuanqing's face was tense, his eyes burning with fighting spirit.
"I don't believe you are the greatest warrior in the world!"
Today, I'm going to have a competition with you and see who is truly number one!
Before he could finish speaking, he had already made his move!
His small body burst forth with astonishing speed and power. With a punch, a gust of wind howled as he aimed straight at Lü Xiao!
The speed and power of this punch were so great that even Yuwen Chengdu, who was watching coldly from the sidelines, was taken aback and secretly shocked.
"Whose kid wasn't properly leashed?!"
Lu Xiao realized what was happening and threw a punch.
He had previously stated that he specifically targeted the elderly and children.
If Zheng Ji had run even a fraction slower, he would have definitely gotten a beating.
This brat dares to court death, so don't blame him for being ruthless!
"Bang!"
The two fists collided violently in mid-air, producing a dull thud!
A hint of surprise flashed in Lü Xiao's eyes.
He didn't use his full strength in that punch, after all, he couldn't really kill someone with one punch.
Even a strong, ordinary man would clutch his hand and cry out in pain after taking such a punch, but this brat only swayed slightly, which suggests he has some kind of secret.
"Hmph, the legendary invincible Marquis Wen, his strength... seems to be nothing special."
Pei Yuanqing shook his slightly numb fist, but a smug smile appeared on his face.
He didn't use his full strength in that punch. He's a tiger, but he's not stupid.
If he were to kill Lü Xiao with a single punch, he would be in deep trouble.
"Yo ho."
Lu Xiao chuckled lightly, "This newcomer doesn't seem to have any good intentions."
"My name is Pei Yuanqing. You probably haven't heard of me."
But soon, I will replace you as the greatest general of the Sui Dynasty.
Pei Yuanqing remained incredibly confident, as if he had already defeated Lü Xiao.
Lu Xiao suddenly realized that it was the future Silver Hammer Protector.
No wonder he was able to take a punch from himself without flying; that's not surprising at all.
"Speak to me more politely, or you won't even be allowed to carry my hammer anymore!"
Pei Yuanqing was extremely displeased to see Lü Xiao looking down on him like this.
He had already decided that if he defeated Lü Xiao, he would be the best in the world.
Yuwen Chengdu led his horse, while Lü Xiao carried a hammer.
"He really is a brat, he just needs a good beating!"
After learning Pei Yuanqing's identity, Lü Xiao no longer held back.
These fierce warriors are incredibly resilient; they won't die even after being beaten a few times.
Moreover, this kid is incredibly arrogant and looks down on everyone.
If we want him to serve the Sui Dynasty well, we must train him severely!
Once the thought was made up, Lü Xiao no longer held back.
Pei Yuanqing only felt a blur before his eyes, and Lü Xiao's large hand shot out like lightning, grabbing his collar!
Before he could even break free, his feet were already off the ground as Lü Xiao swung him up with one arm!
"Get out of here!"
With a swing of his arm, Lü Xiao flung Pei Yuanqing toward the open space beside him!
Pei Yuanqing was in mid-air, just about to adjust his body to land, when Lü Xiao, like a shadow, arrived and kicked him!
"Bang!"
The kick landed squarely on Pei Yuanqing, sending him flying into the air like a ball.
