Chapter 207 The Kindness of Disciplining a Younger Brother
The fairy in colorful clothes looked terrified; her bewildered and frightened expression still lingered on her face, and she twitched slightly.

Especially her big eyes, which were still blinking.

"what!"

Yuan Wen stared at the horrifying scene before him and was so frightened that he took several steps back.

"Master!"

Yu Que had already removed the array power from the opponent's body; he was merely reinforcing himself with the array to prevent Yuan Wen from launching a sudden attack.

Upon seeing this, the strongmen of the Yuan family hurriedly came forward to help him up.

However, although the Yuan family warriors were also surprised, they did not show any fear. Several of them even showed a look of pleasure in their eyes when they saw the head of the fairy in colorful clothes.

Supported by the strongmen of the Yuan family, Yuan Wen's jaw still trembled for a while before he looked at Yu Que with a livid face, filled with shock and anger.

The other party gritted his teeth and shouted:

"Yu Que, you...you actually dared to kill the Fairy in Colorful Robes!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Que's smile faded, and he asked in confusion:

"Well, I only said that I would give this woman to Brother Yuan, but I didn't say how I would give her away."

Brother Yuan, is it that you hold a grudge against me?

Yuan Wen's expression changed several times. He was extremely ashamed and indignant, his lips trembling with anger, but he couldn't say a word for a moment.

Especially upon seeing the severed head of the fairy in colorful robes before him, the boy was filled with bewilderment. He slumped onto the stone bench, muttering to himself:
"How could it come to this? How could it come to this!"

Seeing that even the fairy in colorful clothes was dead, yet this boy remained so bewildered, Yu Que finally frowned, and his voice became somewhat stern:
“Yuan Wen, out of respect for my teacher Yuan Wu, I, Yu Que, will not be angry that you have come to me today to ask for this woman, and will even give her to you.”

If you simply dislike her, that's one thing, but why act like a stray dog ​​just because of a mere courtesan?

Yuan Wen gave a bitter smile:

“Yu Zhenchuan, what I’m asking you for is the living Fairy in Colorful Clothes.”

You knew this all along, yet you still insisted on beating her to death in front of me. Weren't you deliberately humiliating me? Since you've already done it, why be such a hypocrite?

Upon hearing this, Yu Que revealed an even more pronounced sneer.

However, after thinking for a moment, he regained his composure and let out a long sigh:

"Brother Yuan, why have you come to this?"

Yu Que turned around, gazing at the undulating sea of ​​clouds before the Millstone Peak, and said:
"On the day I passed the imperial examination, this woman, in the Red Chamber, smashed her zither at me in front of everyone in the building, disrupting my ceremony of passing on my true teachings."

I ignored her, but lately she has been spreading rumors and distorting the truth in front of you all, ruining my reputation. Now you, as a member of the Yuan family and the younger brother of Yuan Wu, have come to demand the return of the woman who has provoked me twice.

"If I hand her over to you, where will I put my face? If I don't hand her over to you, where will the face of your Yuan family, and your brother Yuan Wu, be? You have truly put me in a very difficult position."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Wen's expression changed once again.

Although this young man had the typical spoiled brat habits and was quite arrogant, he wasn't a bad person. When he heard Yu Que explain his predicament, he realized what was going on.

Yuan Wen's face was immediately filled with regret, shame, and dejection, and he muttered to himself:

"I did not kill you, but you died because of me."

The man's voice was filled with pain.

Upon hearing this, Yu Que's voice grew even colder and harsher as he shouted:
"Shuzi!
You feel no shame for this place, no shame for the reputation of your Yuan family, no shame for the name of your brother Yuan Wu, but only shame for this arrogant courtesan.

"Does this woman truly deserve to be treated like this, as well as your brother?!" Yuan Wen was reprimanded like this, and his face stiffened. He suddenly seemed at a loss for words.

Seeing this, Yu Que pointed to the beautiful woman's head and continued:
“If I were to give this woman to you alive, with her abilities, you would surely take her home, and might even become her Daoist partner at her request.”

At that time, the Yuan family may sever ties with you, and Master Yuan Wu may also take his anger out on me because Yu gave you this girl.

In this lose-lose-lose situation, only the woman benefits.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Wen's pupils finally contracted slightly, and a look of hesitation appeared on his face.

The man's lips were moving as if he wanted to speak out in rebuttal.

However, the Yuan family warriors waiting beside him couldn't help but step forward and whisper a few words in his ear.

Yuan Wen's face gradually darkened, and he looked even more bewildered.

He hesitated for a few moments, but finally chose to lower his head, take the colorful head from Yu Que's hand, and hold it tightly in his arms without saying a word.

Seeing that the gifts had been given out, Yu Que shook his hand, took the handkerchief handed to him by the maid next to him and wiped it, then sat down and served tea to the guests.

Upon seeing this, Yuan Wen and his group...

Several strongmen immediately helped Yuan Wen up and quickly walked towards the palanquin.

Several of the older strongmen remained where they were, first bowing deeply to Yu Que with deep gratitude in their eyes, before taking a few steps back and turning to chase after him.

Immediately, under Yu Que's watchful gaze, they dashed down the mountain.

Inside the cloud platform, only the headless corpse of the fairy in colorful clothes and Yu Que remained.

Yu Que calmly and leisurely finished a cup of tea before standing up and walking towards his own palace.

After he left, the maids and servants wiped and swept, maintaining perfect order.

As for the beautiful headless female corpse, it was dragged to a spirit field by them. With a fire talisman, the object was immediately turned from a fine furnace body into ashes, indistinguishable from the soil.

Even the most lovely and beautiful things, once burned, will still turn to ashes.

………………

the other side.

Yuan Wen carried the head of the Fairy in Colorful Clothes back home, looking utterly dejected. He bumped into many people in the palace, causing quite a stir.

In particular, many of the scions of prominent families who had urged him to seek out Yu Que had sent people to wait nearby to see the outcome.

As a result, they saw that Yuan Wen had indeed demanded the person, but what came out was only a head, and these scions of noble families all changed color.

Some people were furious, some looked stern, and others quickly and discreetly left, returning home immediately and hastily finding excuses to travel far away.

Especially after Yuan Wen returned home, the strongmen and servants spread the word about what happened on Mopan Peak.

Those in the Dao Palace who heard about it all changed their opinion of Yu Que, the newly arrived disciple. They believed that although he came from a lowly background, his methods were decisive and he had a rough and unrefined air about him, so he should not be underestimated.

This matter also reached the ears of the martial arts master Yuan Wu.

The man frowned, but after listening to the story of his younger brother and Yu Que, his brows relaxed, and he calmly spoke:
“Excellent, my brother has met a good friend.”

Wu Zhexian Yuan Wu paused for a moment, then instructed his clansmen:
"Since we have wasted such a fine furnace cauldron of Master Yu, how can the Yuan family not make a gesture? You all prepare generous gifts for me and go to Millstone Peak immediately to express your gratitude for Master Yu's teachings."

"promise!"
