Chapter 1242: Chapter 1214: All-Out Brawl

Yu Minglang spread his wings of imagination. From the sound of it, the intruder might be an acquaintance of Qio Yu Xuan, possibly a colleague or a student, sneaking over to steal things while he’s not home!

The person on the phone hadn’t realized that someone had already snuck into the house and was still talking.

"That old man keeps everything for that little treasure Chen thing of his. If I don’t take it, he’ll end up giving it to her anyway. I’m not going to let that woman have it!"

Yu Minglang had been quietly observing, wondering how to handle it. Originally, he considered it something he could manage or ignore. But as soon as he heard his wife’s name, he couldn’t stay out of it. Fury ignited in his heart and courage followed.

The idiot outside wasn’t even aware of the danger, yet dared to call his wife names?!

"You better tell me now! If you don’t, I’ve got ways to deal with you—oh, the old man hid the stuff in a secret compartment in his study’s cabinet? I see! Remember, don’t let the old man know, or I’ll break your leg!"

After saying this, the man hung up the phone, letting out a sinister laugh.

"Heh heh, you think you can keep everything for that blond troublemaker. I’m going to steal it all now. Let’s see what you’ll have left to give!"

He hummed a tune as he walked toward the study. Following the phone call’s instructions, he opened the cabinet door, found the secret compartment, pressed lightly, and a huge safe appeared. The man smirked and began to dial the combination.

With a click, the safe opened. The man was overjoyed. Just as he reached in, everything went black.

A bedsheet enveloped his head, followed by a flurry of punches and kicks.

The man wasn’t bad at fighting either, but no matter how skilled, it’s hard to counter being ambushed, his head covered, taking a beating, with no chance to fight back.

The one assaulting him was Yu Minglang.

Yu Minglang had tailed this guy, and seeing him open the safe, he decisively attacked, wrapping his head before delivering a beating. The white casual shirt of the man was imprinted with Yu Minglang’s footprints. After thrashing this "thief," Yu Minglang pinned the man’s arms behind his back, pressing him against the wall. The blanketed man began to curse in a string of English profanities.

Roughly translated, it was a barrage of insults directed at Yu Minglang’s various anatomical parts, and a desire for unsavory interaction with Yu Minglang’s mother, and so on.

Yu Minglang huffed coldly at the words, "Watch your mouth!"

"Fuck! If you’ve got the guts, let me go. We’ll settle this one-on-one! Ambushing people isn’t what a real man does!"

Pinned on the wall, this guy was also full of anger. What was this madness? He’s just sitting at home, and disaster rains down on him. Where did this idiot come from to sneak attack him?

"Even one-on-one, I’d beat you!" Yu Minglang said, applying pressure with his grip, causing the subdued guy to cry out in pain.

Just then, a voice arose behind the two.

"What are you two playing at?"

Yu Minglang turned around to see Qio Yu Xuan standing at the door, apparently just returned.

"Old man! Kill this bastard for me!" The man pinned against the wall roared, about to explode with rage.

"I came to see you, saw this guy stealing, and dealt with him accordingly." Seeing Qio Yu Xuan return, Yu Minglang grabbed the guy’s shoulder, yanked him up and kicked the back of his knee. Unable to bear the pain, the man collapsed to his knees before Qio Yu Xuan.

"Oh~~~" Qio Yu Xuan let out a startled cry, circled the kneeling man, clicked his tongue twice, and fished 100 dollars from his pocket.

"There’s no need for such formalities, apprentice. It’s not even New Year’s yet, why are you offering such reverence? Here, take 100 bucks as your New Year’s pocket money..."

Nong Yao was infuriated. He yanked the sheet off his face, just to see who had the audacity to ambush him.

One look and he was shocked along with Yu Minglang.

It was him!

The two had crossed paths before, and when he later thought of Yu Minglang, Nong Yao was so incensed he could bite teeth with anger, dying to come back and settle the score.

Who would have thought, who would have thought!!!

The two met here of all places!

Yu Minglang realized that this guy was Qio Yu Xuan’s top disciple, and therefore technically Qian’s senior brother.

The problem was, Qio Yu Xuan had previously hinted that this guy might have ill intentions, and now Yu Minglang had overheard him giving Qian disparaging nicknames while plotting something sinister. Now a real grudge had formed!

Yu Minglang and Nong Yao faced off as if it were a matter of life or death. They glared at each other before Nong Yao sprang up, hurling punches. Yu Minglang wasn’t afraid to fight back, kicking with his leg, and soon the two were at it again.

Qio Yu Xuan could have easily intervened to stop them, but he didn’t bother, observing with interest, occasionally offering commentary.

"Yao, kick him in the gut!"

"Xiaoqiang, give him a Black Dog Crotch Punch, turn Yao into Eastern Invincible!"

Yu Minglang was gaining the upper hand until Qio Yu Xuan’s shout made him momentarily lose focus, giving Nong Yao a chance to kick him.

Both Yu Minglang and Nong Yao whipped their heads to Qio Yu Xuan, yelling.

"Whose side are you on?!"

"I’m on the side of justice!" Qio Yu Xuan waved them off. "Come on, keep fighting and release your young hormones! Boys need exercise, so keep going! Don’t stop until one of you drops!"

How could they continue fighting with a troublemaker like this stirring things up without identifying allies or enemies? Yu Minglang called a halt to Nong Yao.

"Let’s settle something first before we continue!"

"I was thinking the same!" Nong Yao took the opportunity to pause and catch his breath, thinking he’d be at a disadvantage if the fight continued because the guy’s punches felt like cannonballs, hitting painfully.

"Mr. Qio, do you know this thieving crook?" Yu Minglang asked knowingly.

By observing Qio Yu Xuan and Nong Yao’s interaction, he had a hunch that he might have made a mistake.

"Yes, precisely, he’s my wayward apprentice. Come, Yao, introduce yourself to your fierce little sister’s household pet, The Ferocious Green Military Dog, Xiaoqiang. Yu, intelligence rating five stars, emotional intelligence minus two stars, combat power over five stars, super mythical beast!"

Qio Yu Xuan’s grand introduction didn’t please Xiaoqiang. On the contrary, Xiaoqiang felt a surge of anger, wishing he could punch the old man as well.

"You’re the mythical beast!"

"Why the hell would I steal? This is the old man’s place, I live here. I need to steal? It was you who snuck in with the door closed, attacking without knowing the details. If it wasn’t for my injuries, I’d kill you!"

After saying this, Nong Yao clutched his stomach, worried that the recent scuffle with Yu Minglang might have reopened his wounds.

"If you weren’t stealing, why were you saying over the phone that when Qio Yu Xuan isn’t home you’re going to take stuff? And worse, giving my wife a stupid nickname?"

That last offense in particular was intolerable!
