Chapter 238

The woman in blue looked at Duanmu Xi’s cold eyes and shivered, but she still forced herself to raise her head, “Did… Did I say anything wrong? Aren’t they fighting because of you?”

Duanmu Xi looked at the woman in blue who had a guilty look on her face and slightly narrowed her eyes, but she didn’t mean to argue with the woman.

Ya’er wasn’t as calm as Duanmu Xi. She jumped up and glared at the woman in blue, “Nonsense. What does their fight have to do with Her Ladyship? She has said nothing at all!”

Duanmu Xi looked at Ya’er in front of her, her dark purple eyes flicking.

The woman in blue glanced at Ya’er in front of Duanmu Xi, her beautiful eyes glistening with disdain. She said coldly, “Who are you? You’re merely a maid. How dare you butt in?”

Ya’er looked flurried but she calmed down quickly and looked at the woman in blue, saying unyieldingly, “Yes, I’m only a maid, but you should be reasonable. Clearly, you were slandering Her Ladyship just now. You’re wrong!”

“How dare you!” The woman in blue struck a rush of light cyan mysterious Qi at Ya’er.

Ya’er was directly dumbstruck by the cyan mysterious Qi coming at her, totally at a loss.

Duanmu Xi looked at the faint cyan mysterious Qi. The woman in blue was an elementary Mysterious Lord. She was talented indeed. When the light cyan mysterious Qi was about to hit Ya’er, Duanmu Xi swung her sleeve and directly struck the light cyan mysterious Qi back.

“Umm…” The woman in blue was hit by her own cyan mysterious Qi. With a groan, she spat out a mouthful of blood.

“How… How dare you hurt me!” The woman in blue covered her chest and glared at Duanmu Xi resentfully.

Duanmu Xi arched her eyebrows and said coldly, “No one can hurt my people!”

Ya’er looked at Duanmu Xi, her dark eyes full of tears. Her Ladyship was standing up for her. What a nice lady!

The woman in blue looked at Duanmu Xi’s cold face and cracked a sarcastic smile, “You don’t want me to hurt your people? I must do it.” The woman in blue exerted her mysterious Qi and struck it at Ya’er again.

Seeing the scene, Duanmu Xi pulled Ya’er backward behind her back and exerted her mysterious Qi to fight with the woman in blue.

Upon seeing the scene, Ya’er said anxiously, “Miss, be careful!” Ya’er’s eyes were filled with self-accusation. It was all her fault. If she didn’t talk recklessly and offend the woman in blue, Her Ladyship wouldn’t fight with the woman in blue.

After fighting for a while, the woman in blue fell into a disadvantageous position.

The woman in blue looked at Duanmu Xi and gasped lightly, thinking, “She’s so competent. She should be 17 or 18 years old only but she has been a Mysterious Deity, two levels higher than me. Given the big difference between us, if I fight with her recklessly, I can’t win today.”

The woman in blue shifted her gaze to Hong Qiang and Bai Lian who were fighting, “Please stop it.” Then, she struck out a rush of mysterious Qi to separate Hong Qiang and Bai Lian.

Hong Qiang and Bai Lian both looked at the woman in blue.

While the woman in blue was confronting Duanmu Xi with effort, she said to Hong Qiang and Bai Lian, “Why are you fighting? Our biggest enemy should be her.”

Hong Qiang and Bai Lian both looked at Duanmu Xi. When they saw the purple mysterious Qi exerted by Duanmu Xi, they were both shocked. Duanmu Xi was so powerful, who had been a Mysterious Deity at such an early age. This was too thrilling!

The woman in blue noticed that they didn’t mean to help her and then came up with an idea, “You know what, this new woman doesn’t live with us. Instead, she stays in the Wuyou Palace.”

Hong Qiang and Bai Lian were astonished again. Living in the Wuyou Palace was all the women’s dream in the Wilderness Holy Hall. However, no matter how much the Region Master doted on them, he wouldn’t let them approach the Wuyou Palace. Now, a new woman was living in the Wuyou Palace. Did it mean that there would be a mistress in the Wilderness Holy Hall soon?

“Bai Lian, what are you waiting for? Come and help. As long as this woman is alive, you can only be a substitute,” the woman in blue said as the two women still didn’t take action.

Upon hearing the word substitute, Bai Lian was intrigued. She was right. As long as this woman was here, she would be the substitute forever. She looked at Duanmu Xi maliciously, “Lan Gui, I’ll help you.” Then, Bai Lian took out the soft sword from her waist and joined the fight.

Hong Qiang was still standing still and didn’t mean to join the fight.

With Bai Lian’s help, Lan Gui got a lot more relaxed. However, even though the two of them confronted Duanmu Xi, they were still in a disadvantageous position.

Seeing that Bai Lian joined the fight, Ya’er felt more anxious, “You… You’re too despicable. How can you two confront one?” She regretted it so much. Why didn’t she learn martial arts back then? Now, she could do nothing but to worry aside.

Faced their attack, Duanmu Xi didn’t go all out but defended perfunctorily. She didn’t want to fight with them. Just now, she merely tried to keep the woman from hurting Ya’er. She moved aside to dodge Bai Lian’s soft sword, but she didn’t expect that her action would expose her belly bump.

“You’re pregnant!” Bai Lian stared at Duanmu Xi’s belly bump in shock. Now, Bai Lian’s mind was filled with the thought that she was pregnant with the Region Master’s baby.

Hong Qiang and Lan Gui also looked at Duanmu Xi’s belly bump. A glimmer of jealousy crossed their faces. This woman was pregnant. She was so lucky. They had served the Region Master for so many years, but they had to take the absorption medicine all the time. On what ground could she be so lucky to be pregnant with the Region Master’s child?

“Hong Qiang, what are you waiting for? This woman is pregnant. If the baby is born, we can’t gain a foothold at all,” Lan Gui said. Then, she exerted her mysterious Qi to attack Duanmu Xi again. This time, her attack only went at Duanmu Xi’s belly.

Hong Qiang was hesitant. Since this woman could be pregnant with the Region Master’s baby, this woman’s significance in the Region Master’s heart must be incomparable. After all, whether this woman existed, she was already not favored. Why would she offend the Region Master’s new love for other people’s interests? She wouldn’t be that stupid.

As Lan Gui focused on attacking Duanmu Xi’s belly, Bai Lian also raised her soft sword and stabbed it at Duanmu Xi’s belly. By all means, she couldn’t let this woman give birth to this baby. Even if Duanmu Xi wouldn’t die, Bai Lian must try her best to abort the baby.

Ya’er was greatly worried to find that the two of them focused on attacking Duanmu Xi’s belly. They were so bad. Clearly, they were trying to abort Duanmu Xi’s baby. “Oh right, I can turn to the Region Master for help. Her Ladyship is pregnant with his baby. He’ll come to help her for sure,” Ya’er thought and then ran backward.

Hong Qiang looked at Ya’er’s back, her coquettish eyes flicking. This maid was not that stupid. Hong Qiang took a glance at the three of them fighting and then ran away. She had better leave this place. She had heard that Yan’er, the Region Master’s close maid, was directly killed by him for offending this new woman. Yan’er’s position in the Region Master’s heart was not lower than theirs.

As Duanmu Xi saw that their attacks all went at her belly, her dark purple eyes glittered fiercely. She wanted to spare them but now it didn’t seem to be necessary. She willed her mind and instantly, a silver dagger darted at Bai Lian’s soft sword.

The soft sword landed but the dagger directly flew towards Bai Lian’s face instead of stopping.

Bai Lian’s beautiful face was slit instantly.

Bai Lian screamed in pain. Before caring about her injury, she picked up the soft sword from the ground to withstand Duanmu Xi’s dagger.

As Bai Lian’s appearance was ruined, Lan Gui felt delighted. In this case, Bai Lian wouldn’t be favored anymore. When Lan Gui was complacent, a rush of purple mysterious Qi went at her chest. It moved so fast that Lan Gui couldn’t dodge it at all. She was sent flying away by the purple mysterious Qi.

In the Xinghe Hall.

The Region Master saw Ya’er again and frowned, “Why are you back again?”

Ya’er saw the Region Master and directly knelt, “Please rescue Her Ladyship now!”

The Region Master directly stood up, “What’s wrong with her?” His voice was clearly fretful.

“Two ladies are fighting with Her Ladyship,” Ya’er looked at the Region Master and reported with worry.

With a shimmer of killing intent crossing his dark eyes, the Region Master asked through gnashed teeth, “Where are they?”

Feeling the killing intent on the Region Master, Ya’er shivered subconsciously, but she still answered quickly, “On the way back to the Wuyou Palace.”

Ya’er felt a gust of wind blowing across her and the Region Master was already gone. Seeing the scene, Ya’er immediately stood up and ran out.

When the Region master arrived, Lan Gui and Bai Lian were almost tortured to death by Duanmu Xi. One of them was lying on the ground, nearly dead, while the other one was unrecognizable with blood stains all over her face.

The Region Master just ignored the two women and directly looked at Duanmu Xi who was holding a soft sword, asking with worry, “Are you okay?”

Duanmu Xi slightly curled her lips and arched her brows, “Do I look not okay?”

Hearing that Duanmu Xi said she was okay, the Region Master let out a sigh of relief, “Good thing that you’re fine.”

“They’re not okay!” Duanmu Xi said and then deliberately glanced at the two women on the ground. She sneered, “I didn’t expect your taste to be so special!”

Then, Duanmu Xi directly stabbed the soft sword into Lan Gui’s thigh and turned to leave without looking at the Region Master.

Ya’er who happened to arrive saw Duanmu Xi and immediately caught up with the latter.
