Since Chen and Mu left, four days had passed. Liu Wuxin stayed at the inn, nervous and constantly worried about the former's safety.
"Uncle Fu, Brother has been gone for so many days. Are they really all right?"
Liu Wuxin walked back and forth in the room, with worry written all over his face.
Rest assured, Miss Liu. The young master is robust and has a large lifespan, so he will certainly be safe and sound. Furthermore, the young master is not a scholar with no strength, his strength may not be inferior to Zhang Long."
Although Fu Bo said nothing was wrong with his mouth, he couldn't help but worry about the two of them in his heart.
Liu Wuxin clenched her fists with both hands, walked a few steps back and forth, and suddenly, a knock came from outside. She immediately showed a smile on her face, "It must be Brother coming back."
Thinking about this, Liu Wuxin happily opens the door of the room, but when she sees the visitor, her smile on her face immediately fades away.
There were about ten people, all unfamiliar faces, coming in an aggressive manner. Upon seeing Liu Wuxin, their faces suddenly turned fierce. The leader was a middle-aged man who pointed at Liu Wuxin's eyes and cursed, "Look, it's this misfortune-bringer, the one with the odd eyes. She's definitely a misfortune-bringer; that's why my luck has been so bad lately. It must all be because of her."
Upon hearing this, Liu Wuxin's inner heart 'clanged' and she panicked, taking a few steps back in confusion. Then, she fearedly covered her eyes with her hands.
Because of these eyes, she had suffered countless indignities. As a result, for a long time, she had felt inferior because of her odd eyes.
Fu Bo immediately stepped forward to defend, "Gentlemen, let's talk properly. Although my miss has a congenital odd-eyed condition, she has not harmed any of you. You calling her names like this is most inappropriate."
"Humph, what's not harming us? Living on this planet as a misfortune-bringer is actually harming us."
"That's right. I live next door, and my luck has been very good. However, because of her arrival, I have been losing money for the past few days. Besides her bringing disaster to us, who else could it be?"
"Don't waste your time talking to them. This misfortune-bringer should be gotten rid of. I think she should be taken out and beaten to death with a stick."
……
One after another, their expressions grew fierce, and a murderous intent was evident on their faces.
The middle-aged man in charge pushed Fu Bo aside and reached for Liu Wuxin, who was frightened and retreated backwards, frantically shaking her head to explain that she was not a misfortune-bringer.
However, those people did not care, and they rushed forward in a pack to take her down.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please, talk things out calmly. She's a good girl, not the misfortune-bringer you're saying she is. She's really not; she's just got congenital odd eyes. How could she harm anyone..."
Fu Bo wanted to explain further, but was slapped on the old face by a young man, "Old man, you're still trying to defend this misfortune-bringer. I think you've gone crazy; don't think just because you're old, I won't hit you."
Blood flew from his mouth, and Fu Bo was left dazed and confused. Although he still wanted to explain, he was shoved away by the rest of the crowd. Liu Wuxin, meanwhile, was pulled out of the room by several people who had her hands in their grip.
"Don't hit me, don't hit me."
Liu Wuxin was terrified and shouted in fear.
"Stop!"
Suddenly, a cold command was heard, halting the crowd who were about to molest Liu Wuxin.
Liu Wuxin was startled, and a smile suddenly appeared on her face when she heard this voice, "Brother."
"Brother?"
At the sound of the word, all eyes turned to the stairway, just in time to see Chen Mo and Zhang Long approaching with a stern expression.
"Are you her brother? Hmp, your sister is a misfortune-bringer, and even staying alive is a trouble. Since you can't bear to do anything, let us take care of it."
The middle-aged man in charge walked up, his expression fierce and staring at Chen Mo.
"Slap!"
Chen Mo slapped him heavily, sending the middle-aged man flying several feet in the air. Blood splattered everywhere, and several of his teeth were knocked out.
Seeing this scene, the crowd was terrified and their livers and gall bladders trembled. With such skills, how could he be an ordinary person? This is bad. This time they have provoked a martial artist.
The others involuntarily swallowed their saliva, intending to employ moral blackmail, but Chen Mo gave them no chance to speak. His expression cold, he stared at Liu Wuxin and said, "I told you, if anyone bullies you, beat him up. Have you not taken my words to heart?"
"I..."
Liu Wuxin bit her lower lip gently, her body slightly trembling, and her heart was a bit scared. Chen Mo was being strict with her for the first time.
"Punch."
Chen Mo's voice came again. Liu Wuxin bit her silver teeth and pulled the person who was pulling her with both hands. Then she punched out with both fists, hitting those few people with terrifying force. It didn't take long for the crowd who had come in an aggressive manner to be beaten up by her, spitting out blood and howling in pain.
Liu Wuxin clenched her small fist tightly, took a few deep breaths, and felt a bit nervous. She had actually hit the people who bullied her, and it felt... kind of exhilarating. But, would Brother think I'm too violent?
Just as Liu Wuxin was worried, Chen Mo's large hand gently caressed her head and said softly, "That's right."
Liu Wuxin was taken aback, and her tense heart immediately relaxed. She looked up at Chen Mo with adoration, "Brother, am I too ruthless?"
"Not cruel. Others will bully you if you're not ruthless. The more fierce you are, the more others will dare not bully you. Remember my words, Wuxin. I don't want to see you bullied by others again... If I'm not around one day, I hope you can also protect yourself."
"Brother, do you have to leave Wuxin?"
Liu Wuxin trembled slightly, her eyes brimming with tears, like a stray kitten that has been abandoned, looking at Chen Mo pitifully.
"No, I promised you that we will always be together."
Chen Mo smiled gently. Originally, he thought that in a month, when Ye Liangchen returned, it would be his deadline. But now, thinking carefully, he had the name of Daozu and many people who supported him. Now, Zong and the Cangsha sect were also very close to him, and the Emperor also owed him a favor...
With so many backers and supporters, and as long as he doesn't offend Ye Liangchen, Chen Mo doesn't have to worry about being killed at this moment. His promise to Liu Wuxin might no longer be a pipe dream.
After letting Zhang Long deal with those who intended to harm Liu Wuxin, Chen Mo checked Fu Bo's injuries. There was no major problem, just a bit of dizziness in the head, and he relaxed.
After having Zhang Long handle those scoundrels, Chen Mo planned to take Liu Wuxin out for a stroll while there was time.
Although Liu Wuxin was still a bit scared that she would be excluded by others at this moment, she agreed to Chen Mo's request with his continuous comfort.
Chen Mo extended his hand and smiled gently, "Although Lin City is not very prosperous, you are a stranger here, and if you get lost, I won't be able to find you anymore."
"I'm not a child."
Liu Wuxin pursed her lips, gently took Chen Mo's large hand in hers, blushed and lowered her head, and couldn't help but subtly lift the corners of her mouth...
