Traveling to ancient times, with space

Chapter 246 Broken Leg

However, Su Yue did not give up. With quick reflexes, she kicked the futon that had been lit by the candlestick away.

At this moment, Su Yue's face was full of anger. She glared fiercely at Gu Chuan and Gu Yu, who were lying on the ground, and said sternly, "Hmph! Trying to run away? Not so easy! Today, you two will kneel here obediently!"

After saying that, she raised her foot again and stomped heavily on their legs.

The kick was so powerful that it broke Gu Chuan and Gu Yu's calves, leaving them with no power to resist.

The two men were lying on the ground, sweating profusely from the pain, with large beads of sweat rolling down their foreheads and soaking their clothes.

Their faces were filled with resentment as they stared intently at Su Yue, muttering incoherently.

"Ouch... my leg, my leg... you damned little beast, I will kill you with my own hands and tear you to pieces!" Gu Chuan roared through gritted teeth, his voice trembling with pain.

Su Yue glanced coldly at the two people lying on the ground, not even bothering to look at them properly, and a slight smile appeared on her lips.

He revealed a disdainful smile: "Hmph, you want to kill me? You'd better think twice before you try! You call me a little beast? Well, what are you then? Are you some lowly nobody?"

At this moment, Gu Yu was also in so much pain that her face turned as white as paper, completely devoid of color, but her mouth never stopped moving.

She continued to curse Su Yue: "I'm going to find my father and have him stand up for me! It's all because of you, you damned little beast, why did you have to come back? Why don't you just die outside? It would be better than being an eyesore here! Ouch, it hurts so much! My leg! If anything happens to my leg, you can forget about having this worthless life!"

Since coming into this world, Su Yue had never hated anyone so much, and Gu Yu in front of her had successfully become the first person to make her feel disgusted.

Looking at these two disgusting guys, she thought: Let them keep suffering like this, it's their punishment!

Su Yue effortlessly sat cross-legged on another futon, her bright, star-like eyes gazing quietly at the two people lying on the ground.

The two were in so much pain that they fainted.

As night fell, all around was pitch black, with only the faint moonlight casting a few rays of light.

Seeing this, Su Yue stretched out her hands and lifted one person with each hand, as easily as lifting a chick.

She walked briskly to the outside of the ancestral hall, casually tossed the two unconscious fellows there, and ignored them.

After doing all this, Su Yue turned around and went back into the ancestral hall.

She went to the charred prayer mat and rolled around on it without hesitation.

In an instant, her once clean and tidy clothes were covered with burnt ash, and even her fair and white face was smeared with black ash, making her look like a little kitten that had just crawled out of a coal pile.

Immediately afterward, Su Yue took off running, shouting at the top of her lungs, "Help! Father, grandfather, come and save me! Someone has the audacity to set fire to our family ancestral hall! This will extinguish the incense offerings of our Gu family ancestors..."

Su Yue's shouts seemed to contain a faint spiritual power, with extremely strong penetrating power, spreading far and wide.

Lord Gu, who was engrossed in writing a letter in his study, was startled by the sudden cry for help and threw the brush he was holding far away.

His expression changed drastically. Without thinking, he pushed open the door and strode off toward the ancestral hall.

Just then, Lord Gu slowly climbed into bed, intending to lie down comfortably and get some rest.

However, his heavy eyelids had not yet fully closed, and he had not yet drifted into a sweet dream.

Suddenly, a panicked, heart-wrenching scream, like a thunderclap, pierced his ears.

The sudden shout startled Lord Gu, causing his heart, which had been gradually calming down, to leap into his throat, and his whole body to tremble uncontrollably.

Terrified, he didn't even have time to put on the coat that was lying by the bed. In a panic, he threw off the quilt and jumped off the kang (a heated brick bed). Then, he took off running and ran frantically towards the ancestral hall.

At this moment, the first thing that catches the eye is Lord Gu, who is rushing towards them.

As soon as Su Yue saw her father, she rushed forward and hugged his leg tightly as if she had found a lifeline.

She then burst into tears, wailing, "Father! You almost never saw your daughter again! Why is my life so miserable!"

Back when I was still very young, my mother left me at a young age.

Over the years, I've struggled alone and helplessly outside, and it wasn't easy for me to get to where I am today.

I thought that I could finally be reunited with you, Father, and from now on I could live a life loved and cared for by my family.

But who would have thought that our home would be even more dangerous than the outside world?

"Whatever grudge you have, come at me! But why attack the ancestral hall?!"

Lord Gu was also speechless, but still asked, "Did you see clearly who did it?"

Su Yue shook her head, pretending not to know: "My son doesn't know, but I saw clearly that there were two people."

"How's the ancestral hall burning? I haven't seen any smoke. Has it already finished burning?"

"What are these lackeys doing?! It's so serious, and not a single one of them came to report to me!" Lord Gu, his face full of anger, rushed towards the ancestral hall with burning anxiety.

At this moment, he was preoccupied with the condition of the ancestral hall and had no time to pay attention to Su Yue beside him.

When he finally arrived at the ancestral hall, panting heavily, he didn't even have time to catch his breath before impatiently stepping inside.

However, the moment he stepped inside, his gaze was drawn to the pile of charred prayer mats on the ground.

The prayer cushions that should have been neatly arranged for people to kneel and worship were now charred black.

Scattered on the ground, they seemed to be telling the story of the ruthlessness of the raging fire that had just occurred.

Inside the solemn ancestral hall of Lord Gu, he nervously and carefully checked everything again from beginning to end.

After confirming that there were no abnormalities, I finally breathed a long sigh of relief, my heart pounding with tension.
