Chapter 140 Kidnapping
......
Yingze was brought back after being knocked unconscious.
With Di Yao's help from inside and outside the South Corner Gate, Hu Erzhuang easily brought the man back.
"Let me go! Let me go!"
The kid kicked and thrashed inside the animal skin bag. The animal skin was made from the shed skin of a snake or dragon, and it was very tough and sturdy. Ordinary spiritual energy couldn't even scratch its skin. It was a large bag, and they just tied the person up and stuffed him in.
"You bastards, how dare you! I am the young patriarch of the Youying clan, how dare you kidnap me!"
"I would rather die than form a pact with your Dijiang clan!"
"You old hag! Let the old hag come out here!"
Yingze kicked a few times but then ran out of strength.
He was sweating profusely in the confined space, panting heavily. In fact, he had started a suicide pact and a hunger strike the day he learned that his mother had asked him to form a pact with Emperor Jiang.
Unexpectedly, these people were so treacherous that they actually kidnapped him.
He said there was no way he could agree to anything.
Unless he dies! He thought angrily!
However, the prolonged hunger made him feel somewhat aggrieved.
The mother was adamant and spoke rudely, implying that if he disagreed, she would expel the father from the clan.
How could he agree!
My mother is not unaware of Dijiang's wolfish ambitions. Forming a pact with him is merely a pretext to appease the North Sea. Is she really going to throw his entire life into this?
Moreover, that person clearly agreed.
He heard from the maid that the tiger clan was already preparing the wedding ceremony. If he knew this news, wouldn't that be a betrayal and a slap in the face?
The thought that she might be angry or even disgusted with him made Yingze feel as if his heart had been scalded by boiling oil.
He was so anxious that he kicked the bag again.
But this kick landed squarely on someone.
Hu Erzhuang cried out, and Ying Ze felt his vision brighten. A burly man with a full beard was standing in front of him.
"Lord Yingze."
As soon as he spoke, Ying Ze recognized him.
The second-in-command of the Tiger Clan, and Di Xi's right-hand man!
"Two strong!"
He immediately got up from the ground and then glanced around.
This is actually the territory of the Night Bird Clan!
Overwhelmed with joy, he felt a surge of warmth towards Hu Erzhuang.
"How is this going?"
Tiger Er's thighs hurt a little, but considering his status, he gritted his teeth and endured it. He wore a sullen face and didn't care to look at him: "Lord Yingze, please forgive me. It was the lady's idea. We were just following orders."
"It was her idea!"
These words made Yingze's eyes light up; if he had a tail, he would wag it right now.
Tiger Two boomed his voice, "Lord Yingze, don't be too happy yet. Your Ying clan broke the contract first, and Lady Consort is furious. You're here as a hostage, not as a guest."
"Great idea!" That's fantastic! How come he didn't think of that!
Yingze started to imagine the scenario.
He knew she would definitely be willing to form a bond with him.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have tied him up.
He's not young anymore. In the clan, if any male is unwilling to form a contract, or if his father or mother disagrees, the females will force him to marry. Once the covenant between heaven and earth is made, it's a done deal, and it's hard for anyone to refuse.
I didn't expect her to be so bold, but it is indeed a good idea.
Yingze's face burned with embarrassment at the thought of making things irreversible.
He smoothed out his wrinkled clothes, feeling a little lost for the first time. He hadn't changed these clothes in three days, and he had been on a hunger strike for the past few days, so he didn't look well. He didn't know if he could do "that" and what if she wasn't satisfied.
My father said that if a male doesn't perform well the first time, he'll have a hard time afterwards.
His little face scrunched up, a mixture of joy and trepidation.
"When is she coming?" He needed to prepare properly, at least to have a full stomach.
Hu Erzhuang's face was very sour: "I don't know, Lord Yingze, just wait and see."
After saying that, he locked the person in the room and also barricaded it with wooden stakes to prevent the person from getting out.
Yingze didn't want to go out. In fact, he could open the wooden stake with his spiritual power, but his mind was in a mess right now.
He looked around and realized that this was where Mu Yunyun lived.
It wasn't big, just a bed and a tea table. A charcoal fire was burning brightly beside the tea table, the sparks crackling and popping, igniting the fire in Yingze's heart as well.
How to do.
How to do.
He clutched his clothes and glanced at the bed.
The bed was covered with soft, plush animal hides. He sat down on it nervously, his face turning bright red.
However, having been on edge for three days and also feeling hungry, he fell asleep in no time.
......
Yingze was awakened by the noise outside.
It was a message being relayed.
That loud voice belongs to Hu Erzhuang.
He peeked through the crack in the door and saw his father leading the old clan chiefs of Beihai over.
He was startled and held his breath, not daring to make a sound. Then, he saw Mu Yunyun come out from the back room to greet him.
"You all arrived so quickly after receiving the message?"
Mu Yunyun remained calm and invited everyone to sit down in the main room, and Bai Sang'er served tea.
"This is Shennong's medicinal tea. Please, clan leaders, have a taste."
Bai Sang'er placed the teacup on the table, but no one moved.
Ying Yu had no intention of doing so.
Earlier, when he was checking the gift list at the Dijiang Clan, he heard that Ze'er had been kidnapped. The Tiger Clan said that they had only invited him as a guest, and he couldn't possibly not understand the meaning behind their words.
He was anxious and rushed over as fast as he could.
"It was indeed my oversight at the banquet earlier, please don't blame me, my lady."
He truly loves Mu Yunyun.
If it weren't for this incident, he would have wanted to have the wedding ceremony much earlier.
The old clan chiefs of Beihai remained silent, quietly drinking their tea; it wasn't their turn to take the lead yet.
Mu Yunyun sat upright, her feather skirt trailing on the ground, her posture graceful and her tone very polite: "What are you saying, sir? The matter was sudden, how could I blame you?"
Seeing her attitude, Ying Yu was even more unsure of her intentions, so he could only go along with it and say, "The Ying clan and the Dijiang clan are already related by marriage. His mother disagrees and is very stubborn. I hope you can understand, my lady."
"Natural, natural."
Mu Yunyun practiced Tai Chi, took a sip of tea, and found the herbal tea to be mild and fragrant, indeed quite good.
Ying Yu was getting a little anxious and decided to get straight to the point: "Ze'er has been spoiled by me and will inevitably cause trouble in the clan. Why don't I take him back now and apologize to him later?"
“Well…” Mu Yunyun placed the teacup on the table with a dull thud: “No.”
Two words made Ying Yu's expression change.
The people of Beihai couldn't sit still any longer.
"Lady, what do you mean by this?"
“We’re giving you face by coming here in person, and you’re really putting on airs.”
"Release them immediately, or don't blame us for being impolite."
They acknowledged that Mu Yunyun was exceptionally talented, but she was still developing and, when it came to the interests of the clan, they could turn their backs on her in an instant.
Mu Yunyun smiled.
"Don't worry."
She reached out her hand, and a crimson butterfly fluttered its wings from her palm, landing affectionately on her fingertips.
Ying Yu's expression changed.
"This is a communication butterfly!"
In the beast world, there is no such thing as telepathy. These feather butterflies are divided into two females. If one butterfly dies, the other will never live alone.
It can also mean to silence someone.
