Yu Xiaotong noticed something was wrong and immediately said, "Sister, you should go quickly!"
Li Qingmei replied, "I can't just abandon you and run!"
"If we go, we go together!"
Yu Xiaotong said, "I'll hold him off for you. I'm the eldest daughter of the Yu family; he wouldn't dare hurt me!"
"Listen to me, hurry and go!"
Thus, Uncle Gui and Yu Xiaotong clashed.
They exchanged over thirty moves.
Gradually, Yu Xiaotong found herself unable to hold on and shouted, "Sister, listen to me, go quickly!"
"He's after you; if you don't leave now, you'll miss your chance!"
"Obey me, hurry..."
Li Qingmei also sensed something was amiss and no longer dared to linger. She turned and fled.
Seeing this, Uncle Gui's gaze turned extremely grim. "Eldest daughter of the Yu family, you've gone too far!"
Yu Xiaotong coldly retorted, "Li Qingmei is my god-sister. If you dare harm her even a little, even if you escape to the ends of the earth, I will find you and tear you to shreds. Don't believe me? We can try!"
This was Yu Xiaotong's confidence, stemming entirely from the Yu family.
The Yu family was a well-known martial arts family in Jinmen, holding a respectable social status.
Uncle Gui understood that making an enemy of her would not be protected even by Li Shaohu. He could do the math!
With this in mind, he clearly held back against Yu Xiaotong.
Yu Xiaotong said softly, "You're afraid of me, which means you're also from Jinmen. Tell me—who exactly are you? And why are you trying to harm Li Qingmei?"
It had to be said, Yu Xiaotong was very clever.
Uncle Gui coldly rebuked, "This has nothing to do with you. Miss Yu, I advise you to move aside quickly!"
"Never!"
Though Yu Xiaotong appeared frail, at this moment, she seemed like an insurmountable mountain.
"Too much!"
Uncle Gui couldn't hold back his temper any longer and escalated his attack. Unlike before, Uncle Gui was impatient now, using his full strength to push Yu Xiaotong back.
Immediately afterward, he delivered a palm strike.
In the blink of an eye, he knocked Yu Xiaotong unconscious. "My apologies, eldest daughter of the Yu family!"
He then pursued.
By the time Uncle Gui caught up, Li Qingmei had vanished, disappearing into thin air.
Uncle Gui punched the air furiously several times. "Damn it..."
He then relayed the news to Li Shaohu. Despite his anger at Li Qingmei's escape, Li Shaohu didn't lash out at Uncle Gui but said, "Good, I understand. Find a way, and make sure you locate her!"
"Yes!"
Uncle Gui acknowledged and began the pursuit.
Without a clue or direction, just a blind search…
Meanwhile, Li Qingmei tried calling her father and was met with no answer. She then dialed Li Pingwei's number, with the same result.
Everything was eerily strange!
With no other options, she notified the Yu family patriarch, informing him that Yu Xiaotong was under attack.
Upon learning that his granddaughter was in trouble, Yu Hai personally led a group to Haojiang.
The entourage exuded a formidable aura, instilling a sense of dread.
This was the presence of martial artists.
They soon arrived at the small villa district in Haojiang.
They found Yu Xiaotong's location and saw her curled up motionlessly on the ground.
This sight terrified Yu Hai, his old face etched with panic. "Xiaotong... Xiaotong, are you alright! Don't scare Grandpa!"
He helped Yu Xiaotong up and checked her pulse, letting out a long sigh of relief when he confirmed she was fine.
"It's good that you're alright; you've just fainted!"
However, his voice remained coldly furious. "Investigate the surveillance footage and find this culprit!"
"Who dares to injure my Yu Hai's granddaughter is tired of living?"
