Chapter 845 - 846 Another Hole in the Forehead_1
The sudden attack not only stunned Yang Qingtong, but it also took Luo Linhao by surprise. Although he always trained in martial arts, he had never been in a real fight before, and his lack of combat experience made him less agile.
Just as the sword was about to pierce his forehead, a guard suddenly rushed over from the side, and the sword ended up stabbing the guard instead.
Luo Linhao, shocked by the sudden impact and also frozen in his own daze, failed to keep his footing and stumbled over to a stone beside him. Instantly, blood was streaming down from his forehead.
Feeling something wet, he wiped his hand and took a look—his hand was covered in blood red.
Then, he cursed out loud, "Damn it, I just patched up a hole above my eye and now there’s another one in my forehead. The Li Family really wants to ruin this young master’s painstaking efforts."
After saying that, he faintly collapsed.
As a result, he didn’t see the remaining people’s corners of their mouths twitching wildly.
"Divine Doctor Mu, Divine Doctor Mu."
As soon as she entered the Yang Family’s gate, Yang Qingtong started yelling into the yard.
Meanwhile, a shadow guard carried Luo Linhao in, followed by two servants carrying the injured guard.
Seeing Luo Linhao’s face covered in blood, and the guard similarly wounded, the Yang Family’s hearts sank.
Mu Shaoling, upon seeing this, felt a tightness in his heart, especially seeing Luo Linhao’s blood-covered face. He was worried that Luo Linhao had injured his eyes again, and hurried to examine him first. Seeing that he had only hurt his forehead, Mu Shaoling was somewhat relieved.
After that, he went to treat the guard’s wounds.
"Were you ambushed?" Mu Shaoling asked the shadow guard. Ordinary thugs wouldn’t have managed to injure his guard.
"Yes, not one of the nine assailants survived." Once they reached a quiet area, the shadow guard knelt on one knee, "I failed to protect Young Master Linhao. Please, Master, punish me."
When Mu Shaoling heard it was nine people, he asked wonderingly, "Why didn’t you send Linhao back first?"
After asking, he suddenly realized that with Linhao’s temperament, he certainly wouldn’t have been willing to come back, especially since he knew martial arts.
"Forget it, just remember it for now. You can receive your punishment when we return to the Capital City."
Mu Shaoling thought that they were short on hands here, and having one person injured, they couldn’t afford any more losses.
"Yes, thank you for your leniency, Master."
With that, the shadow guard disappeared into thin air.
"When will he wake up?" Upon seeing Mu Shaoling return, Yang Chuxia hurried over to ask.
"He hit his head on a rock, but he should wake up later tonight. It’s nothing serious."
Yang Chuxia felt somewhat guilty about Luo Linhao getting injured after going out; she wished she hadn’t let him go. She hadn’t expected trouble as soon as he left.
"Don’t be too hard on yourself. The Li Family won’t give up until they get what they want. I just don’t know what they’re up to this time," Mu Shaoling said indifferently, thinking that Shaofeng must have reached the Capital City by now, and his grandfather must have gotten the message, as well as Uncle Luo. They should be starting to act against the Li Family by now.
"Ah, this Li Family is really something!" She didn’t know what else to say, "It looks like we can’t let him go out again until the Li Family issue is resolved. Even when we return to the Capital City, we’ll need to keep a close watch on him."
"Hmm, I’m aware of the situation."
Luo Linhao woke up that evening. By then, the Wang Family had already eaten dinner, but no one had gone to rest yet because Mu Shaoling had said he would wake up at night, so everyone was waiting.
"You’re all waiting for me?" Luo Linhao said, looking around at the circle of people, somewhat stunned.
