Chapter 75: Chapter 75: Sparring When talking about this Young Master Luo, Sun He’s expression instantly turned somber. He sneered coldly, "What do you think your Shen Family is? Didn’t Shen Qingfeng just study alongside Luo Tianjie for two years? Do you really think they will protect your Shen Family forever?" Shen Qingzhu feigned calmness, "Young Master Luo sent some tea through Madam Luo to my cousin two months ago. Tell me, if my cousin speaks up, will he stand up for our family?" Sun He’s face darkened slightly. Luo Tianjie is the second young master of Bright Moon City, and Madam Luo is his aunt, the wife of Landlord Liu. If he were to harm Shen Qinglan, Shen Qingfeng would surely not let him off! This is also why Zhou Si ran back to complain to him, saying that someone from the Shen Family disabled his hand and injured their people, yet he did not come seeking justice from the Shen Family for Zhou Si. He’s not as short-sighted as Zhou Si. Shen Qingfeng knows the second young master of Bright Moon City, and they are very close friends. Bright Moon City and Yongning Manor are relatives; if he were to harm the Shen Family, he might offend Luo Tianjie, and consequently offend Bright Moon City and Yongning Manor. Let alone himself, even his master cannot afford to offend them. Sun He said ominously, "I’ll let you off this time, but if it happens again, don’t expect me to be so lenient." Hearing this, Shen Qingzhu quickly pulled Shen Qinglan along, "Qinglan, let’s go!" Shen Qinglan nodded, allowing Shen Qingzhu to pull her away. However, just as they were about to pass by Sun He, Shen Qinglan suddenly turned around and kicked Sun He. Sun He, caught off guard, came into intimate contact with the ground. Shen Qinglan’s cold voice followed, "You may be willing to let me go, but I’m not willing to let you go!" Surrender? Impossible! With someone like Sun He, threats don’t work; if you can’t handle him openly, he’ll attack you in the dark. If you don’t make him submit, he won’t give up. "You... damned woman, I spared your life and yet you dared to attack me!" Sun He propped himself up and drew a dagger from his waist, lunging at Shen Qinglan. Shen Qinglan pushed the startled Shen Qingzhu behind her, then used her toe to pivot, delivering a flying kick directly to Sun He’s right hand. "Damn it!" Sun He dropped the dagger from the kick, feeling a surge of anger, and quickly threw a punch towards Shen Qinglan’s face. Unfazed, Shen Qinglan didn’t seem to want to dodge. As the punch neared her face, she lightly intercepted it with her hand. The wind tousled the stray hair on her forehead, her expression cold as ice. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦 "How is this possible?" Unwilling to give up, Sun He swung his left hand again, but it was once more caught by Shen Qinglan. Shen Qinglan’s strength was great, and Sun He was not willing to show weakness in this regard. He crossed his hands, using all his strength to shake off Shen Qinglan’s hands. Shen Qinglan was shaken back two steps, her eyes narrowing slightly. Sun He no longer dared to underestimate her. He kicked the dagger on the ground, sending it flying straight toward Shen Qinglan. Shen Qinglan quickly retreated, taking Shen Qingzhu with her to avoid the dagger’s attack. Meanwhile, Sun He lunged at the two again, quickly striking with his palm aimed at Shen Qinglan’s head. Shen Qinglan let go of Shen Qingzhu and met the attack with her palm. Though Sun He had Inner Strength, she relied purely on brute strength. She used all her might to take on Sun He’s strike. "Bang—" When their forces collided, Sun He was sent flying like a kite with a broken string, whereas Shen Qinglan only stepped back a few paces. "Phew—" Almost the moment he hit the ground, Sun He spat out a mouthful of blood.
