“It’s nothing, I just haven’t seen my sister recently. Where did she go?” Yang Chen curiously asked.

Gu Mingyue whispered: “Young Master, the Young Lady only told me that she has to deal with some matters, but I don’t know the specifics.”

This was rather strange to Yang Chen as he had seldom seen Yang Caidie since the last Coming of Age Ceremony. However, he didn’t think much of it since Yang Caidie was an adult and had her own space.

However, Gu Mingyue’s attitude today was very unusual, which made him look up with a pair of eyes staring straight at her, trying to find out what was on her mind.

Being stared at by Yang Chen like this, Gu Mingyue panicked and avoided his gaze, fearing that he would discover something.

“Mingyue, it seems like you have something on your mind?” Yang Chen asked with confusion.

Hearing this, Gu Mingyue’s body shook, and she immediately said: “No, Young Master, how could I have anything on my mind?” “You are lying,” Yang Chen said slowly.

“I’m not,” Gu Mingyue hurriedly replied.

“If you are not lying, why don’t you dare to look into my eyes?” Yang Chen frowned.

Gu Mingyue could not argue, she tried to glance at Yang Chen, but quickly looked away. Yang Chen’s eyes were bright as stars, as if they could see through her inner thoughts. This made her panic and anxiety involuntarily show on her face.

If Yang Chen couldn’t confirm that Gu Mingyue had something on her mind then, he would be a fool. He said sternly: “Ming Yue, you should know that I treat you like family. If you have any troubles, why keep them to yourself?

Don’t you consider your young master as one of your own?”

“No, it’s not like that.” Gu Mingyue’s voice grew weaker, and suddenly, her eyes filled with tears, and she couldn’t help but let them flow down.

“You still claim you have no troubles on your mind. Mingyue, did someone bully you?” Yang Chen said with a hint of anger in his voice.

Seeing that the truth had been revealed, Gu Mingyue wiped her tears and sobbed: “Young… Young Master, I’m… I’m afraid.”

“What’s wrong?” Yang Chen was completely clueless.

Gu Mingyue cried with a devastated look: “Just now, I heard from other servants that someone from our Gu family offended the Horse-thief Gang. In their anger, they started a massacre at our Gu family. My sister, my mother, and my father…”

“When did this happen?” Yang Chen was momentarily stunned.

“Three hours ago.” Gu Mingyue’s voice trembled.

Hearing this, Yang Chen’s brows furrowed: “Three hours, it should not be over yet. Mingyue, let’s go.”

“Young Master… What are you planning to do?” Gu Mingyue was suddenly startled; she stopped crying and stared at Yang Chen with wide eyes.

“There must be a reason for that Horse-thief Gang to exterminate the Gu family. Nevertheless, the Gu family is just a small clan, even if they provoke the Horse-thief Gang, the Great Tribes will just turn a blind eye and not get angry at the bandits.”

Yang Chen sighed: “As your Young Master, I am incapable – I cannot help your Gu family in their current predicament with my current strength. However, that is your family after all. I must take you to have a look at it. If we can save even one person from the jaws of death, then let it be so.”

“Young Master, you are absolutely not incapable, but you must not go there. This incident only happened three hours ago, and those bandits must not have left yet. If you go now, you’ll be walking into the tiger’s den!” Gu Mingyue was extremely anxious.

The Great Tribes turned a blind eye to this incident. Yang Chen could not control the outcome, so how could he be considered incapable?

Moreover, Yang Chen was actually risking himself for her sake.

While Gu Mingyue was moved, she knew that this was a very dangerous thing to do. She immediately grabbed Yang Chen’s hand, fearing that he would do something irrational.

“Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing. Let’s hurry up and go, or we will be too late.” Without saying another word, Yang Chen grabbed Gu Mingyue’s hand and rushed out.

In the blink of an eye, they were at the courtyard of Yang Wu’s residence.

Yang Wu was in the yard, holding a plain knife in his hand, which he practiced with great vigor, showing that he had put in a lot of effort in honing his knife skills. Although he had only one arm, this had only motivated him to work harder and strengthen his resolve.

“Yah!” A powerful swing of the knife came from Yang Wu.

“Yang Wu,” Yang Chen’s unexpected voice suddenly rang out, catching Yang

Wu’s attention.

“Yang Chen?” Yang Wu saw the hurried Yang Chen and Gu Mingyue. “What are you doing here?”

Yang Chen took a deep breath: “Lend me a fast horse,” “What do you need a horse for?” Yang Wu was puzzled.

“To go to the Gu family,” Yang Chen said.

“What?!” Yang Wu’s eyes widened: “You know about the Gu family, right? Their place is surrounded by the Horse-thief Gang and is completely sealed off. If you go now, you’ll be skinned alive by those bandits. No, I can’t allow this to happen, my father will definitely break my legs if he finds out that I didn’t stop you.”

He knew very well how important Yang Chen was to the Yang family; even his own father, Yang Yuan, had said that Yang Chen was the hope for the family’s future. Letting Yang Chen go on a suicide mission would be a grave sin.

Yang Chen took a deep breath: “Yang Wu, I treat Mingyue as my family, and her matters are my matters. Now that the Gu family is facing such a crisis, as Yang Chen, I must go and take a look.”

Gu Mingyue, hearing this, couldn’t help but shed more tears. She cried pitifully: “Young Master, I am already very touched that you treat me as your family. But you must not go to the Gu family. Wu Young Master, you must persuade our Young Master.”

Yang Wu seriously looked at Yang Chen: “Yang Chen, you must think twice about this.”

“Yang Wu, do you remember that I went against Wang Yun Kai for your sake? I can also go against the Horse-thief Gang for Mingyue. Do you understand?” Yang Chen stared straight at Yang Wu.

Yang Wu, hearing this, was momentarily stunned. He recalled the scene when Yang Chen stood against Wang Yun Kai for him. Clenching his teeth, he said: “Fine, Yang Chen, you can go. But I must go with you, only then will I feel at ease. It’s a pity that my father is not here; if he went with you, it would be somewhat more reassuring.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t rush to my death. If there’s a chance to pick up some slack, we’ll take advantage of it.” Yang Chen said. “However, Yang Wu, there’s still quite a bit of danger involved when coming along. You don’t have to come.”

“Yang Chen, what kind of person do you think I am? If my father were to know about this, he would definitely break my legs. How can I rest easy without following you?” Yang Wu gritted his teeth.

Seeing this, Yang Chen laughed heartily: “Alright, alright, let’s go together and set off.”

Yang Wu quickly led a fast horse out: “No more wasted words, let’s get on the horse..”
