Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 936: All Influences Assembled In Songshan

“I want to help House Chu too. But, after all, I don’t have any grudges against House Xiao, House Yu, and Master Bing! If there is no reason for me to put myself out there, I won’t. Otherwise, I would have a hard time in the future! The only way for others not to say anything is for Yaoyao to marry me! Although she might feel wronged, heaven and earth can prove my feelings for her and I will treat her well!” An Jianwen continued to try to convince Chu Pengzhan after he saw that Chu Pengzhan stayed silent.

“Hmm... I know. You can leave now!” Chu Pengzhan nodded and wanted to send An Jianwen away.

An Jianwen’s suggestion wasn’t attractive to Chu Pengzhan at all. If Chu Mengyao liked An Jianwen, then Chu Pengzhan would be glad to see it happen. But the problem was that his daughter didn’t like An Jianwen. Marrying her to him would be causing her pain!

“Alright. Uncle Chu, think about it carefully and call me anytime!” An Jianwen nodded and left without saying anything else.

He knew that no matter how much he said, he wouldn’t be able to make Chu Pengzhang change his mind all of a sudden. However, An Jianwen believed that Chu Pengzhan would call him when there was absolutely nothing he could do! It was the only choice Chu Pengzhan would ever have!

It looked like he needed to think of something to make House Yu pressure Chu Pengzhan more so that he will seek help from him without a choice!

“Goodbye!” Chu Pengzhan thought that it was shameless of An Jianwen to take advantage of his daughter at a time like this, but he didn’t want to say anything. An Jianwen wasn’t here for trouble and he was glad about it.

But what should he do now? Chu Pengzhan began to ponder...

...

Bad news entered the Princess’ ears, yet there was nothing she could do!

Although she was capable and noble as the palace owner of the Palace of Dark Nights, right now, the palace was in the hands of the Greatest Elder, and without his permission, no one could leave the mountain!

Palace Owner Wan’er sat in the pavilion anxiously, and she wasn’t in the mood for cultivation at all. Her mind and heart flew to Songshan... if she could fly, she would fly there immediately!

“Palace owner, Elder Li is here again...” Little Qing saw her constantly frowning and felt upset for her. But she was only a little girl, what could she say?

“Let him in! Didn’t I say that Elder Li could come right in?” Wan’er heard Elder Li come in and immediately ordered.

She received a lot of bad news today and she ordered Elder Li to keep an eye on any changes in Songshan city. Was there any new news? She prayed that it was good news!

“Yes!” Little Qing replied helplessly, “But I told Elder Li to come in already, he asked me to tell you first!”

“Oh? Hurry up and bring him in!” Wan’er nodded.

“My lady!” Elder Li was guided in by Little Qing and he bowed.

“Uncle Li, didn’t I said you could just come in?” Wan’er panicked, “What... What’s happening there?”

“Miss, I can’t ignore the rules. I can’t let them catch me violating rules...” Elder Li laughed bitterly, “If I lose my authority over Dark Shadow Group, I won’t be able to help Miss at all...”

“Alright, I understand. Uncle Li, how’s Pengzhan and Yaoyao?” Wan’er asked in a hurry.

“It’s still bad news... House Yu also went to them!” Elder Li sighed and shook his head.

“House Yu? Why did they go?” Wan’er was shocked, “How did Pengzhan offend people from House Yu?”

“Not him, he didn’t offend anyone from House Yu,” Elder Li said, ”It was Yu Kun from House Yu who broke into young Miss’ mansion and injured her pet dog, General Weiwu. She was furious and ordered Lin Yi to kill Yu Kun! But because of Li Fu, Lin Yi let Yu Kun go... But Yu Kun was now a disabled man and so House Yu used this excuse to seek revenge from him...”

“Why did someone from House Yu broke into Yaoyao’s house? What do they want?” Wan’er was furious, “How dare a worldly house touch my daughter...”

“If the Greatest Elder nods to acknowledge young Miss, then House Yu won’t dare to touch her!” Elder Li laughed bitterly, “Not to mention House Yu, even the hidden house behind them will have to consider it before they make a move...”

“Exactly...” Wan’er sighed, “My bitter fated daughter...”

“House Yu was also there because Lin Yi has a few scraps of maps of Tianjie Island...” Elder Li replied.

“Him? He has remains of the map?” Wan’er was slightly surprised but immediately shook her head, “Nevermind him. What did House Yu say? What do they want?”

“House Yu suggested young Miss to marry into their house as the concubine and asked for your husband’s company as dowry...” Elder Li sighed.

“What?!” Wan’er stood up abruptly and was shocked and furious, “How can they be so shameless? How dare they!”

“If you show your face, Miss, they wouldn’t dare to do that... Even I, if I showed my face there, House Yu wouldn’t be so... But I can’t leave the mountain!” Elder Li replied helplessly, “Dark Shadow Group exists to collect information, we have no masters in there...”

“No! I’m going to beg him! I can’t watch Pedngzhan and Yaoyao get hurt! If they are hurt, there’s no point for me to live anymore!” Wan’er could no longer sit down. If it was what Elder Li had said, then House Chu was coming to an end! Her daughter’s life was also coming to an end! She could not watch her daughter’s life become a tragedy!

“Ahh!” Elder Li sighed, “I’ll go with you!”

Wan’er and Elder Li rushed to the Greatest Elder’s cultivation place and as soon as they entered the door, Wan’er requested solemnly, “Greatest Elder, Wan’er wants to go down the mountain!”

“Go down? Have you broke through to the sky division?” The elder replied indifferently and ignored her anxious expressions.

“No! That’s why Wan’er is requesting to go down! If Wan’er could break through, Wan’er could leave the mountain whenever she likes!” Wan’er said.

“No,” the Greatest Elder replied coldly.
