Chapter 96: I Misunderstood Ye Xuan Again

At this moment, in the entire Jade Fox Palace, everyone was silently watching the scene unfold in the picture. Then, their gazes turned towards Ye Xuan, filled with disgust, and then they spat in disdain.

“This Ye Xuan really is something else, even seducing the concubine of his master.”

“Indeed–!!”

“Such a shameless wretch, even in his past life he was like this, and probably no better in this life. Indeed, he is someone who could harm our palace master–!”

“In my opinion, we should just kill him–!”

As someone spoke these words, Qingxue flashed to Ye Xuan’s side, her gaze sweeping over those present, “The truth is not yet clear at this moment. If anyone shouts to kill my husband again, be careful of my wrath–!”

At this moment, Qingxue’s domineering protection of her husband startled everyone in the Jade Fox Palace.

So fast–!!!

Truly worthy of being the real Qingxue. The first of the Seven Saints of Taihua, even two immortals couldn’t stop her…

“Humph–!” Seeing this, Hu Qianzao couldn’t help but snort coldly. Having chosen to act against Ye Xuan, the truth was already clear to her.

But she didn’t expect Qingxue to be so naive, being an immortal but still so gullible, just a reputation for nothing–!!! How could she possibly wrong Ye Xuan?!

——

“Help, help me, somebody–!!!”

Under the enchanting night, the Hu residence was brightly lit. Just then, a scream spread throughout the entire Hu residence.

Immediately, the Hu residence was in chaos, many people rushing towards the family courtyard.

Among these people, naturally, was Yu Ling’er.

“There’s a rapist, help me–!!!”

As the scream continued, everyone crowded into the room and saw Ye Xuan pressing down on a beautiful woman, seemingly about to cover her mouth.

Seeing this, Yu Ling’er’s eyes widened in shock.

“You rapist, looking for death–!!!”

Seeing Ye Xuan as the perpetrator, the disciples of the Hu family who rushed over showed surprise and then drew their swords to attack Ye Xuan.

“Stop–!!!” Just then, a stern shout stopped everyone.

The disciples of the Hu family, who were about to act, looked back in surprise and saw Hu Wanquan walking in with a stern face. Seeing the situation inside, he suppressed his anger and said to everyone, “Go back, nothing happened tonight, understand?!!”

“Master…” Hearing this, the disciples looked hesitant, their eyes turning towards Hu Wanquan in disbelief.

Master, he was about to defile your concubine, and you can bear it? At this moment, they felt their master’s head was green–!!!

“Go back–!!!” Hu Wanquan’s face darkened, and he shouted heavily, “Whoever speaks of tonight’s events, I will not spare him. Ling’er… Qian’er, you two stay.”

Hearing this, the disciples of the Hu family dejectedly left. Only Yu Ling’er and Hu Qian’er watched the scene in the room. Hu Qian’er was filled with anger, while Yu Ling’er looked pale.

“Huinang, what’s going on?” After the disciples left, Hu Wanquan finally asked his concubine.

“Master, it was him… he suddenly broke into my room, and said, he took many good things from the residence, wanted to take me away… give me a good life… I refused, and he forced himself on me… These things, they all came from him.”

The concubine wept bitterly, pointing at Ye Xuan, “Fortunately, I fought desperately to preserve my chastity–!!!”

Hearing this, Hu Wanquan’s face turned cold as he looked at Ye Xuan and said, “Ye Xuan, what’s going on?!! Explain yourself…”

Hu Qian’er’s gaze followed the direction pointed by the concubine, and she saw a treasure chest placed on the ground. Opening the chest, she found it filled with gold and silver jewelry, very valuable. Especially a jade pendant inside…

“This is the jade pendant my mother left for me, isn’t it? I’ve been searching everywhere for it and couldn’t find it. It turns out you stole it–!!!” Hu Qian’er glared at Ye Xuan, her eyes full of disdain and contempt.

“Qian’er–!” Seeing his daughter’s demeanor, Hu Wanquan interjected, “The truth is not yet clear, do not wrongly accuse the good.”

“Father–!!” Hu Qian’er retorted, “What else is unclear about the truth? Didn’t everyone see it with their own eyes?!!”

“What’s seen may not be the truth,” Hu Wanquan said, “There must be some problem here… Ye Xuan, tell us honestly what happened, your master will believe you.”

——

“This… This Hu Wanquan is truly worthy of being the palace master’s father in his previous life, what a good man.”

“Yes, if it were me, I probably would have already killed Ye Xuan, but he still allows Ye Xuan to explain.”

“But… speaking of which, there must be a problem here, right?!”

“Definitely a problem, that concubine had Ye Xuan go in just now, but now she’s falsely accusing him.”

“Could it be that the concubine is colluding with those disciples with ulterior motives? Framing Ye Xuan.”

“That’s possible… But it’s also Ye Xuan’s fault for being lustful. He actually had designs on his Elder Uncle’s concubine, he deserves this outcome.”

“He went there on his own–”

“Yeah, now it’s not just about marrying Hu Qian’er, even marrying Yu Ling’er seems impossible…”

“I didn’t expect that someone as upright as Hu Wanquan could raise such shameless scoundrels. It just shows that a good teacher doesn’t always have good disciples.”

“Exactly…”

“Ye Xuan is also a disciple of Taihua, and his skills are not ordinary, he’s even called husband and wife with the Immortal Qingxue.”

“Thinking about it, it’s true…”

Thinking so, everyone’s gaze towards Ye Xuan grew even more contemptuous. Not to mention, Ye Xuan’s skills in seducing women were quite remarkable. He even managed to seduce Immortal Qingxue… she is a well-known immortal, after all.

Although she’s definitely inferior to those old predecessors of the immortal realm, she has been famous for hundreds of years—!!

It’s hard to believe that such a true immortal of the Dao would fall for someone like Ye Xuan if he didn’t have special means to seduce women.

“Next, let’s see how Ye Xuan is going to explain.”

“Hehe… no matter how he explains, it won’t change the fact that he went to the concubine’s room on his own.”

——

“Senior Brothee, what’s going on… tell me—!!!”

Looking at Ye Xuan, Yu Ling’er’s face paled, filled with disbelief.

Hearing this, Ye Xuan helplessly said, “As she said… I was driven by greed and lust… I stole these treasures and came here…”

“Senior Brothee you—!!!” Hearing this, Yu Ling’er couldn’t help but look heartbroken.

“Ye Xuan… Ye Xuan… I’ve already said that I would betroth Qian’er to you, in the future, everything in Hu Mansion would be yours, wouldn’t it?” Hu Wanquan said with a look of frustration, shaking his head at Ye Xuan, “In the future, you want money, a beautiful wife… what would you lack?”

“Why the hurry… Since it’s like this, I can no longer protect you, I’m going to abolish your martial arts and send you to the officials… I’ll ask you again, is there some hidden truth in all this?!!”

——

“Ye Xuan actually doesn’t plan to explain?”

“He’s too foolish, isn’t he? Hu Wanquan said he wanted to hear his explanation, he just needs to tell the truth, and at most, he would be accused of adultery, which is still better than the current situation…”

“Perhaps, he got scared and forgot what to say…”

The people of Jade Fox Palace were pondering why Ye Xuan didn’t explain. Although having designs on his master’s concubine is not a good thing, it’s still better than being sent to the officials as a lecher.

Ye Xuan was obviously set up. Even if he fell for the trap, he still had a chance to explain. Why did he directly admit guilt?!

Only Yu Ling’er looked even more panicked…

Here it comes, another classic misunderstanding plot, she must have misunderstood Ye Xuan again—!!!
