Chapter 270 - Wait, Fiance?!
Bai Rouyun could not help but smile slightly as she heard the powerful voice that erupted from the wrecked carriage.
Although it would have been possible for Mo Chu and Jiang Wei to steer their carriage away, so that this accident could have been avoided, Bai Rouyun saw no reason to do so.
The owner of that carriage was clearly a very selfish and narrow-minded person. She had even sent one of her more powerful guards out to clear the road ahead of her, just to ensure that she could rush through, with no care for what trouble these actions would cause to others.
The first person, the one who had rushed by, and who had been captured, was used to acting like an arrogant young master as his backing was better than any other he had found so far, but he had forgotten that there were mountains beyond mountains and heavens beyond heavens.
So far, he had always just acted arrogantly, using force to try and cover the sky with one hand, as he knew that one would have to look at the owner before beating the dog.
Unfortunately, he had forgotten that they were no longer in their own territory. Although his lady still had a rather prominent ident.i.ty, there were still many others that were even more difficult to provoke.
Although Bai Rouyun and her comrades were the direct cause of this accident, they did not hurry to leave.. Instead, Jiang Wei made Mo Chu park their carriage at the side, and observed the servants" catastrophic rescue attempts of their lady who was buried somewhere inside the carriage.
However, the woman clearly lost her patience, and with a powerful blow of Qi, the whole carriage shattered into thousands of pieces.
"I wonder if she will clean the road afterward."
Bai Rouyun could not help but glance at the many wooden shards of varying size that were spread all over the ground and muttered.
However, her focus could not stay on the remaining wooden shards, as the angry woman was yelling at and violently slapping the servants that she had brought.
From her words, Bai Rouyun could hear that she blamed their accident on the driver"s inability to control the beasts, and even on the scout that had failed to clear the road.
Such behavior made Bai Rouyun understand that this lady was clearly young, spoiled, and arrogant. She was not even listening to the explanation given by the servants, and just kept swearing and cursing at them.
"I"d say that there is something wrong with her brain. Not to mention the dangerous way of ordering her carriage to advance at such a speed, the inability to listen to her servants is really quite frightening."
Jiang Wei"s voice sounded from outside the carriage, but while it was loud enough for Bai Rouyun to hear it clearly, she found that the lady, who had started beating her driver, did not seem to register the words that were being said.
However, others did hear him, and after glancing at the rather disgraceful appearance of the group in front, they all had to agree with these words. Such a woman had to be mentally unsound for her to act like this.
Even if this lady wished to be arrogant, she could at least listen to these servants and show off her might in front of the group of experts that had refused to vacate the road, but she did not even give them the chance to change the target of her anger.
Bai Rouyun could not help but feel somewhat amused by her lack of logical reasoning, and she shook her head in regret before getting ready to ask Mo Chu to continue forward.
However, just as she was about to advance, she heard the woman"s voice scream out a few words that made her very confused.
"I am the future madam of the s.h.i.tian Tower! How dare you be this negligent and let me suffer such an accident?! If my fiance finds out, he will kill you all in the most gruesome manner, so now you better ensure that this lady is happy, or I will personally ask for his help!"
The words were very direct, but they also caused almost everyone present to become frightened. The s.h.i.tian Tower was not a faction that one heard about often. Although everyone was aware of the faction"s position as the most powerful clan in the world, not many knew much about them. Many businesses throughout the entire continent were owned by this faction, and it was impossible to tell which, not to mention the amount of a.s.sa.s.sins they trained each year.
This woman, who seemed arrogant and slightly lacking in the intelligence department, claimed to be the future mistress of such a large power, and her servants did not even seem to be surprised by her words. In fact, it seemed that they fully believed in her words.
The sudden change in words caused Bai Rouyun to narrow her eyes as she looked deeply at the woman for the first time.
She was very beautiful, in an adorable way. She seemed shorter than Bai Rouyun, and she was a little more rounded, but not considered overweight or even chubby. She resembled a porcelain doll as she stood on the road with her pastel pink dress, and her big eyes full of tears; though this image of an innocent and gentle girl was fully destroyed by the curse words that escaped her mouth.
Bai Rouyun had not liked her before, due to her arrogant way of traveling, but now she was somewhat curious about this woman. Could she truly be the future matriarch of the s.h.i.tian Tower? Was she, perhaps, a fiance of Brother Rabbit that she had never heard about before?
