A Bunch of Ungrateful Scoundrels

She save us?!

Hua Niaozi refused to admit this fact no matter what.

"Junior Sister Hua, hand the skeleton over to me!"

Ignoring Hua Niaozi's arrogant and conceited words, Mu Yan'er emphasized once again.

"I won't give it to you!"

Hua Niaozi looked at Mu Yan'er arrogantly.

"Mu Yan'er, this is the Devil's Forest, not your Mu family estate. What, do you intend to hit me? If you have the ability, come and snatch it! If you have the ability, come and hit me!"

Hmph, let me see how a person with a disabled arm can possibly hit me!

And how you could possibly snatch the skeleton from my hands!

Hearing Hua Niaozi's words, Mu Yan'er's face instantly turned crimson with anger.

She was truly enraged.

Lifting the only arm she could still move freely, she channeled profound energy into her palm and fiercely struck toward the right foot that Hua Niaozi was aggressively pressing onto the skeleton.

Hua Niaozi had never expected that Mu Yan'er would dare to oppose her at a moment like this.

One must know that, relying on her charm among this small group, Hua Niaozi was treasured and doted upon by everyone like a precious pearl.

On the other hand, Mu Yan'er had lost an arm, making her a burden to everyone.

Someone in her position should have been pandering to Hua Niaozi and flattering her properly. How dare she have the audacity to defy her!

She truly must be tired of living here!

However, Mu Yan'er actually possessed genuine strength!

Unlike Hua Niaozi, who spent her days scheming and focusing on trivial matters, acting merely as a pretty vase—gilded on the outside but rotten on the inside.

Consequently, when Mu Yan'er's profound energy descended, Hua Niaozi was completely unable to dodge it!

"Ah!"

Everyone heard a miserable scream burst from Hua Niaozi's lips. The next instant, Hua Niaozi lifted her right foot, hopping about on one leg as she cried out in agony.

"Senior Brother! Senior Sister! You must seek justice for me..."

Hua Niaozi wailed pitifully toward her Senior Brother and Senior Sister.

"Junior Sister Mu, your actions are simply too outrageous! You even dare to harm a fellow junior sister. For such behavior, even Senior Brother and Senior Sister will not be able to protect you!"

Seeing Hua Niaozi's expression of anguish and her tear-filled eyes, the Senior Brother immediately rebuked Mu Yan'er.

"Even if Grandfather Mu were to question this one day, Senior Sister and I would still have reason on our side. No matter how you look at it, this is your fault. Step aside immediately and let Junior Sister Hua handle this skeleton!"

"Indeed. Junior Sister Mu, today's matter is truly your fault. If Grandfather Mu were present, he would think the same. You had better go aside and rest."

The Senior Sister also spoke up, addressing Mu Yan'er in such a manner.

"Senior Brother, Senior Sister, you cannot treat this skeleton this way today! If not for Baili Tianchang, the Prince of Nine would never have saved us! Baili Tianchang is our benefactor! You cannot return kindness with enmity like this!"

Regardless of how her Senior Brother and Senior Sister tried to persuade her, Mu Yan'er remained steadfast in her conviction.

Chapter Fourteen: Conflict in the General's Estate

"Absurd! Nonsense! If you continue to act so willfully and recklessly, do not blame Senior Brother and Senior Sister for being discourteous to you!"

Hearing Mu Yan'er's words, the Senior Brother grew even more furious.

How could that good-for-nothing, ugly wretch possibly be their savior? This was utterly preposterous!
