Chapter 226 Why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut?
Hua Linye sneered, "Utterly foolish."

Xiao Jihan nodded in agreement, saying, "This is courting death."

Liu Mengyan had been living away from home since childhood, and was only discovered by the Liu family by chance when she grew up, which is why she was brought back by the Liu family.

Not long after she returned, she made a name for herself in the Beast King City, with people saying how kind and good she was.

Anyone with a modicum of sense should seriously consider whether there's something wrong with Liu Mengyan.

Or perhaps the Liu family is setting a trap.

But Jiang Mochuan jumped right in.

He brought this on himself, so he has no one to blame but himself.

In short, it's good that he got married. No matter what he becomes in the future, no matter if he regrets or reflects on his actions, he will have no chance with his wife.

Moreover, judging from the wife's expression just now, she was extremely disgusted with him.

They encountered several assassination attempts along the way, some of which were orchestrated by the Jiang family.

Wen Nanxi said calmly, "If he had no problems, he wouldn't have been targeted by Liu Mengyan. It just means that he himself has problems."

Everyone agrees with this viewpoint.

Shen Ci'an lifted the carriage curtain and looked out, and saw Jiang Mochuan sitting on a horse.

Jiang Mochuan, who is usually cold and expressionless, had a smile on his face at this moment, and was bowing to the people on both sides.

The smile in his eyes was almost overflowing.

Shen Ci'an's lips curled into a strange smile.

Just as Jiang Mochuan was smiling at the people on both sides, he suddenly seemed to sense an unusual aura, which made a chill involuntarily rise up his spine.

He honed his skills through experience abroad, and on many occasions, he avoided danger by relying on his instinctive perception.

So at this moment, Jiang Mochuan involuntarily looked in the direction of his senses and saw a carriage with unique totems on it. It was the Yun family's carriage.

He immediately spotted someone lifting the carriage curtain, "Shen Ci'an!"

Jiang Mochuan recognized Shen Ci'an at a glance.

Shen Ci'an's appearance was simply too alluring, to the point that it was impossible to tell whether he was male or female. Moreover, he had a strange and unpredictable personality.

They once lived together in the Su residence. As Su Muyao's former beast husband, they had interacted several times, but because he disliked Su Muyao, he did not stay in the Su residence for long.

Even so, he still remembered these people.

He couldn't possibly be mistaken; it was Shen Ci'an.

Shen Ci'an's return means that Su Muyao is likely still sitting in the carriage.

Thinking of this, Jiang Mochuan's eyes showed disgust. He turned around and gave a wink. His personal guard, Jiang Dao, came over and said, "Young Master, what are your orders?"

"Strengthen vigilance, especially over there with the carriages, and make sure no one rushes over and disrupts the wedding ceremony."

Jiang Mochuan married Liu Mengyan ahead of schedule, hoping to avoid any mishaps before Su Muyao and the others returned to the Beast Emperor City.

Of course, none of the orcs Jiang Dao sent out to teach Su Muyao a lesson returned, which made Jiang Mochuan wonder.

Su Muyao and her group had indeed managed to ingratiate themselves with the Yun family; otherwise, how could they have successfully arrived in Beast Emperor City?

Upon hearing the young master's instructions, Jiang Dao couldn't help but look in the direction the young master indicated, and saw the carriage.

"Young Master, it's Su Muyao. She actually tried to ruin your wedding ceremony. How despicable!"

"I've never seen a female like this before. The young master clearly dislikes her, but she insists on pestering him. Honestly, how come she didn't die on the way?"

Jiang Dao spoke in a low voice, his tone filled with hatred and disgust.

Now that Su Muyao has arrived in Beast Emperor City, their people can no longer take action. "Send our hidden agents to maintain order."

"Yes, my lord."

Soon, Jiang Dao mobilized a large number of people, all fully armed, to escort the wedding procession and Jiang Mochuan's dowry.

Shen Ci'an possesses a level 10 superpower, and although Jiang Mochuan and his subordinates spoke in hushed tones, he could hear them clearly.

In addition, the sudden increase in the number of people protecting him made him scoff.

Inside the spacious carriage, both Su Muyao and Wen Nanxi were stronger than Jiang Mochuan, so they could hear everything clearly.

Wen Nanxi was playing chess with Su Muyao when he heard these words. He lost control of his fingers and the chess piece in his hand turned to ashes.

Su Muyao sipped her tea leisurely and said casually, "Heh, does he really think he can hold onto the position of heir to the Jiang family?"

As she spoke, a murderous glint flashed in Su Muyao's eyes.

“If my wife wants to kill him, I will do it. My wife doesn’t need to dirty her hands.”

Su Muyao said coldly, "No need. Why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut? There's no need to bother with Jiang Mochuan. He's not worth the effort. We can just use someone else to do the dirty work."

“The Jiang family has more than just Jiang Mochuan as a candidate. It’s just that he has been carefully cultivated and given preferential treatment by the family, and he is talented, so the position of heir fell to him. But don’t forget, there are quite a few members of the Jiang family in this generation.”

“A soldier who doesn’t want to be a general is not a good soldier. Jiang Mochuan is arrogant and conceited. Killing him would be too good for him.”

"The real show will begin when he loses his position as the family heir."

As Su Muyao spoke, she placed a chess piece in an important position on the chessboard, delivering a killing blow and capturing several pieces.

Wen Nanxi smiled elegantly and said, "My lady, this move is quite ingenious."

Hua Linye and Xiao Jihan were not strong enough to overwhelm Jiang Mochuan, so they were unaware of the conversation outside.

Hearing Su Muyao's words, they felt their blood boil and were ready to make a big splash.

Of course, when Su Muyao spoke, she shielded the area around the carriage, so outsiders couldn't hear any sounds from inside.

Shen Ci'an lowered the curtain, his narrow eyes filled with a cold glint. "My wife is truly resourceful. This Jiang Mochuan looks like he deserves a beating; I really want to punch him."

"We even deliberately ruined his wedding ceremony. Who does he think he is? What is he anyway?"

Su Muyao said, "If this were outside the city, beating him up wouldn't be a big deal, but this is inside Beast King City, so everything has to be done according to the rules."

As she spoke, Su Muyao handed the Su family patriarch token to Shen Ci'an and said, "Since he thinks we will ruin his wedding ceremony, we would really be letting him down if we didn't do something."

"Take my token to the Military Command and tell them that our carriage was maliciously blocked by some bullying orcs. We hope the Military Command can escort us home."

Just as Shen Ci'an was about to accept the token, the soldiers from the Military Command arrived.

Commander Wang respectfully approached the carriage. "Young Master Yun, I am late. I will have someone clear the way immediately."

Upon hearing this, Su Muyao lifted the carriage curtain and said, "Lord Wang, Young Master Yun is in the carriage next to us."

Just then, Yun Qinglan stepped down from the carriage, nodded to Lord Wang, and then looked at Su Muyao, silently asking her a question.

Su Muyao shook her head at him, indicating that she was fine.

However, she also silently said to him, "Thank you."

At this point, with Lord Wang present, it was still not convenient for him to have a direct conversation with Yun Qinglan.

A gentle smile appeared in Yun Qinglan's eyes, indicating that she would not tolerate Jiang Mochuan's anger.

He then spoke, "Lord Wang, we encountered many attacks on our way here. We finally arrived at Beast King City, only to find that someone had mobilized so many experts to guard our way. We had no choice but to ask Lord Wang for help."
