Chapter 18: You Are Dugu Xueyan

  Starting from the Wu family's martial arts arena, the atmosphere of the entire Wu family became very oppressive. Wu Ya stepped forward slowly, and many people looked at him with concern and unfriendly eyes, unaware that he had already arrived at the martial arts arena.

  There were not many people in the martial arts arena, no one was watching, only two parties in the middle, naturally it was the Wu family and the Dugu family.

  The Wu family's side only had a few people, the two heads of the Wu family and several elders. The people in the main hall yesterday did not all come. Everyone from the Wu family was standing, some were standing awkwardly.

  The Dugu family did come, however, with only two people seated, and an empty chair beside them, suggesting a third person was supposed to be there but wasn't. The people standing behind them were almost all wearing gray robes, indicating that at least one of the seated individuals was from the direct lineage, and even if they weren't, their status was extremely high. Dugu Ming stood on one side of the two men, facing off against the Wu family with an air of superiority, using his association with the tiger to intimidate others, who knows what kind of exaggerated claims he was making.

  He still has injuries on his body, but they are already covered by his gray shirt. Given his personality, he would probably show them off, but what is the Dugu family? How could they possibly let him show off and lose face?

  "What's going on? Why hasn't Wu Yao come out yet? Are you all trying to cover up for him?" Du Gu Ming shouted loudly.

  "Huh?"

  Just as Dugu Ming's voice fell, several principals present nodded slightly. The square was empty, but suddenly someone appeared, and it was hard not to attract attention. Dugu Ming naturally noticed it too, his face instantly turning gloomy.

  "Sorry, overslept and came late. You two are the direct descendants of the Dugu family, right? I don't know what business you have with me by calling my name?" Wu Yue walked over, ignoring Du Gu Ming, and spoke to the two people sitting upright, while also secretly observing them. First was the man sitting in the middle, wearing a golden long robe with an embroidered sword on it, surrounded by a dragon. His face was pale and expressionless, only glancing at Wu Yue when he spoke.

  To the left of the man in golden robes was another man, wearing a silver-white long gown with an embroidered sword, but the style of the sword was different. It was unknown whether it was their true natal sword or not. This man in silver-white robes stared at Wu Yue with great interest, seemingly wanting to see what kind of person dared to take action against their Du Gu family. However, when he saw Wu Yue's manner of speaking, he suddenly shook his head and lost interest immediately. He had no interest in a dead man.

  "Are you the one who injured me?" The young man in golden robe asked without even looking at him.

  "He's okay, but he started it..."

  "Since that's the case, you're on your own!" The man in golden robes interrupted indifferently. He didn't bother to listen to Wu Yao's explanation and instead looked at Wu Jia Zhu with a changed expression, saying: "You are the master of the Wu family. Although the Wu family won't be exterminated, as the master of the house, you allowed your family members to lay hands on my Dugu family. You will cut off one of your arms and step down as the master of the house. This matter will be settled."

  When the Golden Robe man's words fell, the entire martial arts arena was like a cold wind blowing by, and almost everyone didn't dare to believe their ears. Overbearing, too overbearing, even the two family masters hadn't expected it, and after being shocked, they immediately went wild with joy.

  "Dugu Gongzi..."

  The master of the Wu family was called out, and he didn't expect the other party to be so overbearing. However, the Dugu family is very large, and there are many legitimate sons, with all sorts of personalities, which isn't surprising. From start to finish, the man in the golden robe never looked at the Wu family straight in the eye, and even refused to enter the main hall, only staying on the martial arts stage behind the gate. The chairs they were sitting on now were also brought by themselves.

  Hey, before Wu Ya didn't show up, he wouldn't allow anyone from the Wu family to say a word, completely listening to Gu Du Ming's one-sided words. Also, because of his one-sided words, he made the decision to kill someone.

  "No need to say more, no need to explain, you don't have the qualification to explain, take action, I don't want us to do it for you, if you don't want to be exterminated." The man in golden robe said calmly, with an air of pride on his face, as if the Lonely Family members were wearing a proud expression regardless of what they wore.

  Dugu Ming's face was filled with joy, staring intently at Wu Yue, his face couldn't help but reveal a triumphant smile.

  With a sudden movement, he bowed and said: "Young Master Tian, this person is very arrogant and doesn't put our Dugu family in his eyes at all. He even injured me. Is it too easy for him to let him commit suicide? I don't know if Young Master Tian can let me take revenge with my own hands."

  "Whatever!"

  "Yes, Young Master Tian."

  Du Gu Ming stepped out with a smile and walked towards Wu Ya step by step.

  What's wrong with this kid, he was fine just now, why did he suddenly stop talking and not resist? According to his personality, he should be arguing and resisting strongly, has he been scared silly?

  It's better if there's no excuse, if Master Tian finds out... things might not go so smoothly.

  Wu Ya didn't want to resist, but just as he was about to argue, his head suddenly started aching wildly, as if it were about to split open. Chaotic thoughts rushed into his mind. Damn it, that scumbag's obsession was counterattacking again. No wonder, the direct descendant of the Lonely House was right in front of him, and the opportunity was within reach. How could this scumbag not counterattack?

  The man in the golden robe's words had also reached his ears, arrogant to the extreme, proud to the extreme. Dugu Ming walked closer and saw him too, but this guy... damn it, was he actually trying to gain sympathy from the Dugu family by seeking death?

  Gritting his teeth, he frantically flipped through the magic book and barely managed to raise his sword. He couldn't just sit there waiting for death!

  "Wait!"

  At this moment, a bright and beautiful voice suddenly rang out, causing everyone in the martial arts arena to turn their heads. A woman wearing a silver robe slowly walked into the arena from the main gate, presumably the owner of the empty chair.

  Her eyes were fixed on Wu Ya's face, and she said again: "Du Gu Yao?"

  As soon as this was said, the faces of the people on the side of the Dugu family immediately changed, especially Dugu Ming who was about to take action, his face suddenly changed drastically!

  But the Wu family didn't seem to have any changes, Wu Ya was originally called Dugu Ya in the Dugu family, nothing to be surprised about, it's just that the Dugu family seemed to have changed, could it be...

  Wu Jia's mind was extremely quick-witted, and he immediately thought of a possibility: that Dugu Ming had not told the man in golden robes about Wu Ya's situation, and the man in golden robes did not know that Wu Ya's full name was Dugu Wu Ya. This was very normal; there were tens of millions of young masters from humble families in the Dugu clan, and even more who had not received a humble robe. In the Dugu clan, Wu Ya was just a drop in the ocean!

  "That's right, it's Dugu Ru!" said Wu Jia Zhuang hastily.

  The man in the golden robe finally raised his head and said coldly: "Du Gu Ming, what is going on here?"

  "Tian, Young Master Tian, he is indeed Dugu Cliff, but has already been expelled from the Dugu family and is now called Wu Cliff."

  "Why didn't you say so?"

  "This... I thought this went without saying, anyway he..."

  "Hmph, no need to say more, I've already guessed what's going on!" The man in the golden robe interrupted him before he could finish speaking. He wasn't an idiot, after all: "Very well, you dare to use me? Take him down and send him back to the family for punishment."
