Chapter 281: Chapter 281 – Xiao Wuwei, About to Cry from Injustice
Translator: 549690339
Xiao Wuwei’s previous behavior was the epitome of jealous rage. If Xiao Ruyu managed to keep people’s jealousy at bay with her immense power and status, Xiao Wuwei’s actions were definitely adding fuel to the fire.
Everyone was irritated by him.
When they saw not only had Xiao Wuwei lost his chance to get in, but he had also wound up in such an embarrassing situation, how could they not be happy?
But of course, they had to keep their joy hidden, lest they seem inconsiderate. You just couldn’t laugh at someone’s misfortune, could you?
So, Jiang Xiaobai, the one who had orchestrated all of it, kept his glee to himself.
But he felt like he was about to burst.
Jiang Xiaobai, with rosy cheeks, supported himself on AnRan’s shoulder while pounding his own chest to suppress the laughter.
Despite his best efforts, they didn’t seem to work; he couldn’t help breaking into gales of laughter.
The laughter was grating in this environment.
Almost everyone turned to him, their eyes filled with nothing but shock.
Fucking awesome!
I crown you the bravest!
You dare to laugh out loud here? Do you have a death wish?
As sure enough, right after Jiang Xiaobai had laughed, Xiao Wuwei blew his top.
He glared at Jiang Xiaobai, with his face crimson and anger blazing in his eyes.
“Shut your mouth, jerk!”
“Is the Third Prince’s house by the sea? Otherwise, why are you meddling in everything? Can’t I even have a laugh now?” Jiang Xiaobai scoffed.
This remark was nothing, if not audacious.
The people that had secretly praised Jiang Xiaobai’s guts nodded in approval.
What nerve!
Not only did he mock the Third Prince, but he also dared to ridicule him publicly. Are you trying to get killed?
Xiao Wuwei was so angry that he was shaking all over, glaring at Jiang Xiaobai with bloodshot eyes.
He was utterly pissed!
“Damn you, you think I can’t kill you?”
Xiao Wuwei roared, already full of anger at Jiang Xiaobai, he was further incensed by this open mockery.
Where is the honor of the Third Prince?
“Go and kill him!”
Xiao Wuwei roared. He didn’t care about anything else right now; he just wanted to kill Jiang Xiaobai.
He ordered a few of his followers to attack Jiang Xiaobai regardless of their own curiosity as to how Jiang Xiaobai had previously escaped an assassination attempt. They merely assumed that Jiang Xiaobai must have had some trick up his sleeve.
Among them, a one-armed warrior glared at Jiang Xiaobai with envy.
Because of Jiang Xiaobai, he had been attacked by the Ghost Crocodile in the swamp and lost an arm. He swore to take revenge on Jiang Xiaobai.
However, Jiang Xiaobai seemed utterly nonchalant in the face of the impending attack.
“If I were you, I wouldn’t attack me right now.” Jiang Xiaobai chuckled, showing no intention to leave or fight back.
Everyone looked at him as if he was an idiot.
However, the next moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Jiang Xiaobai.
It was Xiao Yuwei, who had just emerged from the secret realm.
As soon as they saw Xiao Yuwei, the assailants stopped in their tracks, not daring to move a step forward.
They could attack anyone else, but they absolutely couldn’t lay a finger on the royal descendants!
This was a capital offense!
“Third Brother, have you lost your mind?”
Xiao Yuwei asked nonchalantly, “Why are you repeatedly attacking my people? I know I’m inferior to you in many ways, but you can’t bully me like this, right?”
“Is it because I beat you in the last round? If so, you are rather petty.”
Though Xiao Yuwei’s tone was calm, her words were murderous.
Xiao Wuwei was so angry he felt like he was going to vomit blood. Was he petty?
Did she not see what her man had done!
“Seventeenth Sister, I swear to kill this man!”
“Don’t stand in my way. I can offer you many advantages. I can even speak well for you to our father, as long as you hand him over to me,” Xiao Wuwei said coldly.
His resentment towards Jiang Xiaobai was immense.
He wished he could grind Jiang Xiaobai’s bones into dust. If he couldn’t take his revenge today, he would have lost all his face.
Everyone would know about it. Xiao Wuwei, the Third Prince of the Thousand Yuan Dynasty, was humiliated by a nobody.
Xiao Yuwei glanced at Jiang Xiaobai then said, “What nonsense are you talking about, Third Brother? He’s mine. If I hand him over to you for a pittance, what will the world think of me?”
“Who would dare to work for me after that?”
“Stop making things difficult for me, Third Brother. Otherwise, I don’t mind telling our father about this. You know he wouldn’t think highly of you if he learned about it.”
“You!”
Xiao Wuwei was livid, pointing at Xiao Yuwei, unable to utter a single word.
Was he being threatened again?
“That’s settled, Third Brother. Don’t take it too far,” she said.
“Fine, very well!”
Xiao Wuwei roared, “Remember this, Xiao Yuwei, I am not done with you!”
“And you, bastard, just wait. I won’t let you off so easily!”
Unconcerned with being singled out, Jiang Xiaobai looked relaxed, as if he didn’t even care.
He even mocked in his heart: “I’m not done with you yet. This is just the beginning. The real drama is yet to come.”
Eventually, the intense confrontation ended with Xiao Yuwei’s threat.
Her threat was indeed serious. If the Emperor of the Thousand Yuan Dynasty were to know about this, it would definitely change his opinion of Xiao Wuwei and lower his standing.
The surrounding people were dumbfounded. It turned out there were such benefits in working for other royal descendants?
The way they looked at Jiang Xiaobai was as if they had seen a ghost.
Regardless of the astonished look from everyone, Xiao Yuwei looked at Xiao Wuwei who had turned around and left. After that, she came over to Jiang Xiaobai.
“Are you not at ease unless you’re causing trouble?”
“Tell me, what have you done this time?”
Of course, Jiang Xiaobai was not going to tell her that he was the one who had stopped Xiao Wuwei, so he just told her about the strange situation earlier.
Xiao Yuwei was then also shocked.
“What? How is that possible? The secret realm has been fine for so many years!” Xiao Yuwei exclaimed in astonishment.
“How would I know why it happened?”
Jiang Xiaobai shrugged, “Maybe this guy is just really unlucky, haha. You should’ve seen the look on his face just now. He seemed so mortified. I felt like he was on the verge of tears.”
At this, Xiao Yuwei was left speechless.
Only you could describe someone as on the verge of tears, you shameless wretch.
“Are you sure you didn’t have anything to do with it?” Xiao Yuwei narrowed her eyes.
“How could it be me? Do you think I’m capable of doing such a thing? Don’t make me laugh,” Jiang Xiaobai waved his hand then asked back, “Anyway, can you tell me what’s inside the secret realm?”
