Becoming a literary master starting from the story of Minglan

Chapter 291 Taking Action
"You little beast..."

Sheng Wei was scared!

He was really scared!

Because he knew that Changwu was a man of his word.

If he manages to escape, he'll definitely cause a huge uproar outside!

If he can't resolve this by then, he'll really lose a son!

How could he possibly tolerate this?
"Quick, someone is coming!"

Seeing that Changwu was about to run out of the courtyard, Shengwei quickly shouted loudly to the servants outside the house, "Quick! Stop this unfilial son!"

"We must not let him escape the manor!"

"what?"

The people in the mansion were first taken aback, then suddenly realized what was happening.

"Yes, my lord!"

Upon hearing their lord Shengwei's command, all the servants sprang into action!

The younger ones took off running, howling as they chased after Sheng Changwu, trying to stop him so they could show off their bravery to their lord and hopefully get promoted in the future.

Unfortunately, Sheng Changwu was no ordinary scholar who knew nothing about martial arts. When he saw all the servants in the mansion chasing after him, he unleashed his full power and charged forward with all his might!
Because he was familiar with the routes in the mansion and had the advantage of being able to catch up with him, the servants couldn't catch up with him for a while!
"not good!"

"Brother, don't be impulsive!"

"return!"

"Brother, come back quickly!"

"..."

At this moment, Shulan, Changsong, and the others also came to their senses and rushed out of the house anxiously, ready to stop Sheng Changwu.

Compared to their father, Shengwei, his siblings knew Changwu much better.

At this moment, Changsong and the others had only one thought in their minds: they had to stop Sheng Changwu, otherwise his life would be ruined!
While everyone was in a panic, Minglan and her brother exchanged a glance.

Sheng Changquan nodded to Minglan, then quickly turned around and headed straight outside.

"This kid is really reckless!"

Even the usually composed old lady couldn't help but feel a headache seeing this scene unfold!

"This kid, I hope he doesn't cause any big trouble!"

As Sheng Changwu's figure gradually disappeared, the old lady silently prayed, but a sense of unease crept into her heart.

"Changwu!"

"Changwu..."

The old lady, leaning on her cane, strode outside and shouted loudly at Changwu in the distance, "Changwu, you mustn't do anything reckless!"

"This matter is not as simple as you think!"

"come back quickly!"

"..."

Unfortunately, Sheng Changwu, filled with anger, had already run away and could no longer hear his grandmother calling him.
However, at this moment, no one noticed that in addition to Sheng Changwu's disappearance, there was another person in the room who was also missing.

……

forecourt.

"Father, you can't stop me!"

Sheng Changwu moved extremely fast, arriving at the gate of the mansion in just a few breaths.

Just now, he was able to get rid of the servants in the mansion so quickly because of his familiarity with the mansion. Now, Changwu has run directly to the back of the East Mansion gate, only one step away from going out.

He kept moving, leaping and bounding, and his speed seemed to increase slightly.

"Today, I will avenge my sister no matter what, and make those beasts from the Sun family pay the price!"

Changwu's mind flashed back to the colorful scars on Shulan's body, and his anger grew even stronger.

"No matter the cost, even if it means giving my life, I will not hesitate!"

Recalling the care and love his eldest sister had shown him, Changwu felt a surge of strength coursing through his body.

He knew it was the power of hatred!
Sheng Changwu's eyes were firm, his will resolute, and every move he made was powerful and full of strength.

From afar, he seemed to be the dragon-slaying hero of yesteryear, with the wind howling and the Yi River cold, and his whole being exuded a courageous spirit of "do or die"!

It was incredibly heroic!
Changwu didn't linger. He leaped up the steps in one step, ready to push open the gate and storm into the Sun family to settle his score!

"boom!"

As Sheng Changwu moved, the gates of the Sheng residence were about to open, and he was about to leave when Changwu suddenly felt a tightness around his neck!
This?
Immediately, Sheng Changwu felt as if he was being pulled back.
"Who?"

Realizing that his clothes were being pulled and his movements were being hindered, Changwu immediately began to resist. He didn't turn around, but just struggled hard, trying to shake off the person behind him.

Changwu was confident that with his martial arts skills honed over a decade, he could easily break free from the guy behind him.

Because, in the entire Eastern Prefecture, no one else besides him could compare with him in martial arts.

"Boom!"

A muffled sound!
To Changwu's surprise, the hand that was holding the back of his clothes was as firm and unshakeable as a sacred mountain!
"Who...is this?"

Changwu was startled when he realized that the force behind him was not right!
"This person is definitely not from our family!"

To reiterate, there is no one in the entire Eastern Prefecture who possesses such martial arts skills!

"Who is he?"

Changwu was startled and quickly turned around, becoming cautiously wary.

Unexpectedly!

When he turned around, what appeared before him was his cousin—Sheng Changquan!

"Brother Changquan, you?"

Changwu stared dumbfounded at his cousin, who was grabbing his clothes from behind as easily as swatting a fly, his face full of...

Shocked!

Indeed, the expression on Changwu's face could not be described as surprise, but rather as horror!
In fact, in his eyes, he had always thought that Sheng Changquan was just a weak scholar who only knew how to read books. Although he admired the other's talent, Changwu also had his own unique pride.

Although he couldn't surpass Sheng Changquan in literature, his martial arts skills were far superior. Therefore, Changwu had some confidence when facing Sheng Changquan.

However, what he was seeing now had a tremendous impact on him!
Unexpectedly, Sheng Changquan was not only good at studying, but also skilled in martial arts.

"I...I...finally..."

"...I never imagined that I would still lose in the end..."

Changwu stared blankly at Sheng Changquan across from him, completely bewildered.

Unbeknownst to anyone, a thrilling and epic love story was unfolding in Sheng Changwu's mind!

Although, he was the only one in this grand performance...

"Brother Changwu, please don't do anything reckless!"

Sheng Changquan had no idea that his cousin was thinking so much. He simply frowned and solemnly warned, "This matter is not as simple as you think!"

"This matter cannot be resolved simply by getting rid of the Sun family mother and son; there is another issue involved."

To prevent Changwu from disbelieving, Sheng Changquan emphasized it again.

"A major issue that concerns the rest of our Sheng family!"

"If Sister Shulan's situation goes wrong, it could very well jeopardize Sister Pinlan's marriage!"

"Or, not only Sister Pinlan, but also the girls of the second and third wives will be affected."

Sheng Changwu didn't speak at this moment, but just stared blankly at Sheng Changquan, as if he was stunned by his words.

"Yes, Not Bad!"

"Although my cousin Changwu is a bit impulsive, he can still listen to advice!"

Seeing Changwu's state, Sheng Changquan couldn't help but nod inwardly. Unfortunately, Sheng Changquan didn't know that the other party was merely experiencing a breakdown of faith and wasn't actually listening to him. As for the meaning behind his words, that was even less likely to be understood.

"Brother Changwu, come back with me!"

Seeing that the other party had accepted his suggestion, Sheng Changwu's voice softened a little. He released his grip on Changwu's robe and said softly, "Sister Shulan's matter still needs to be resolved by Grandmother and Uncle!"

"go back?"

"No! I'm not going back!"

When Sheng Changquan mentioned the word "go back," Changwu suddenly came to his senses.

"Brother Changquan, I can't go back with you!"

Changwu jumped back, moving more than a meter away from Sheng Changwu. He looked at Sheng Changwu and said in a deep voice, "Today, no matter what, I must go to the Sun family!"

"Ok?"

Sheng Changquan's eyebrows furrowed, and his expression turned sour.

"Brother Changwu, do you know what you're saying?"

Because he wouldn't listen to advice, Sheng Changquan no longer wanted to call him "brother" and only referred to him as "cousin".

Sheng Changwu naturally noticed the change in how Sheng Changquan addressed him, but he still insisted on his own opinion and refused to go back with Sheng Changquan.

"Brother Changquan, don't worry, I won't act impulsively!"

"Today, I'm just teaching those two beasts a lesson on behalf of my sister; I won't do anything reckless!"

Sheng Changwu had calmed down a bit. He figured that since he had already made such concessions, Sheng Changquan would surely agree to let him leave.

Anyway, he just wanted to teach Sun Zhigao and his mother a lesson, not kill them.

In this way, the impact will not be too great.

"no!"

Sheng Changquan resolutely refused!
After all, he hadn't wanted Pinlan to bother Sun Huangshi before, so how could he let Sheng Changwu cause trouble and beat her up now?
If he gets to do this, the Sheng family will definitely face more difficulties in dealing with Shulan in the future!
"Cousin Changwu, you must come back with me now!"

Faced with the stubborn Sheng Changwu, Sheng Changquan was losing patience.

"According to your uncle's wishes, you cannot leave the manor!"

"long……"

"Of course, if you're unwilling, then I'll have to do it myself!"

Sheng Changquan didn't wait for Sheng Changwu's reply before issuing the final notice.

"hehe!"

"it is good!"

Sheng Changwu was so angry that he laughed instead.

Although he acknowledged that Sheng Changquan had some martial arts skills, he did not consider him to be a true opponent.

After all, how could there be someone in this world who is good at studying and also skilled in martial arts?

“Cousin Changquan, since that’s the case, then let your older brother teach you a lesson today!”

Anger flashed across Sheng Changwu's face as he said, "Just because someone is good at studying doesn't mean they're good at everything else!"

"Never underestimate others in the future!"

"is it?"

"Then I hope that you, cousin, can... teach me properly this time!"

Sheng Changquan didn't want to waste any more words. As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly lunged forward and attacked the other party!

"call!"

The wind howled like thunder, but it was gone in an instant.

As Sheng Changquan sped along, he also extended a fair palm, moving it towards the other person with a seemingly slow but actually swift motion.

"Whoosh~" The fair palm, like the finest white marble, emitted a faint white fluorescence under the sunlight.

"Well done!"

Seeing Sheng Changwu attack, Sheng Changwu raised his thick eyebrows and met the attack with his palm as well. It seemed that he was preparing for a head-on confrontation between the cousins.

"boom!"

When their palms met, a thunderous sound rang out!
Sheng Changquan stood firmly in place, without even swaying, while Sheng Changwu was different. He took five or six steps back, then missed a step and was knocked down by the steps behind him, falling on his butt.

"Well……"

Sheng Changwu sat on the ground, groaned, and couldn't stand up for a moment.

"Brother Changwu, shouldn't you come back with me now?"

Relying on his ridiculously strong physique, Sheng Changquan crushed the usually confident Sheng Changwu with overwhelming force. After defeating Sheng Changwu, he disregarded the other's feelings and brought up the old matter again, stating that he would take him back.

"Cough cough..."

Sheng Changwu, being a martial artist, managed to stand up with considerable difficulty after catching his breath, his face showing a complex expression.

He looked at Sheng Changquan with a complicated expression for a long time before finally letting out a sigh.

"Ah~"

"Okay, I'll go back with you!"

In the end, Sheng Changwu abandoned his previous idea and stopped causing trouble for the Sun family.

After all, he was not only first struck by Sheng Changquan's palm strike and lost his breath, but he also directly experienced the legendary "Wild Goose Descending on the Sandbank" style. These two events left him completely unable to move.

In fact, this was Sheng Changquan's intention. As a master of medicine, he deliberately used a special force to strike the opponent's body, thus rendering him unable to exert any strength for a short period of time.

This way, he can naturally stop his impulsive thoughts.

"Well!"

"Brother Changwu, come with me!"

Sheng Changquan nodded slightly and changed his form of address back to Sheng Changquan.

Now that he had resorted to martial arts, he decided to stop pretending to be a refined and gentle scholar.

After all, he had acted so violently before, how could he possibly salvage his public image now?
"Squeak~"

Just as Sheng Changquan was about to take Sheng Changwu back, the door behind them was suddenly pushed open.

"what?"

"What about people?"

Amidst a commotion, an aged yet strangely familiar voice suddenly reached Sheng Changquan's ears.

"This is?"

Upon hearing that familiar voice, Sheng Changquan stopped in his tracks, ready to see who it was.
"Grandma, what's going on at the East Mansion today?"

"Why isn't even the gatekeeper here?"

One of the visitors spoke in this way.

It was obvious that there were two people who came, and their identities could be discerned from their titles.

"Oh?"

"Perhaps something has happened at your residence?"

The old lady's tone became more urgent as she said, "In that case, let's hurry inside and take a look!"

"..."

"Grandmother? Aunt Fang?"

At this moment, a look of joy immediately spread across Sheng Changquan's face.

Finally, the time he had been waiting for arrived.
