Lin Fan's Provocation

The surrounding onlookers watched Lin Fan, who was completely surrounded but showed no fear.

They also discussed the Duke of Wei Mansion Guards who had surrounded Lin Fan but dared not make a move.

"Who does he know? He dares to cause trouble at the Duke of Wei Mansion?"

"Don't you remember? He's the main culprit behind the Li family and Anle Marquis Manor breaking off their engagements!"

"Right, right, I saw it with my own eyes when he was kicked out of Anle Marquis Manor not long ago."

"Then why is he causing trouble in front of the Duke of Wei Mansion? Shouldn't he be at Anle Marquis Manor?"

"I heard him shouting another woman's name. Could it be a change of target?"

"Who knows! But if he dares to cause trouble at the Duke of Wei Mansion, he must have some backing."

"Yeah, look at these guards, they don't even dare to arrest him."

"It seems the Duke of Wei Mansion is indeed in decline. The Left Wei Guard was split off by the Empress not long ago, and now it's being bullied by an unknown nobody."

The surrounding Duke of Wei Mansion Guards were not part of the Imperial Guard, but their loyalty was not low.

The bystanders' discussions were not hidden at all, and the guards could hear them clearly.

Everyone was so stifled they turned red in the face, wishing they could draw their swords and attack these people and the shouting Lin Fan.

But with Mo Yunxuan's prior instructions, they dared not disobey and act on their own. They could only surround him, waiting for Mo Yunxuan to come out and take charge.

When the main gate of the Duke of Wei Mansion opened wide, eight hundred Nascent Soul Realm Imperial Guards surged out. After driving the bystanders away from the mansion entrance and surrounding Lin Fan, Mo Yunxuan slowly walked out from within the mansion, his gaze towards Lin Fan utterly indifferent.

It was as if he were looking at an unrelated bystander, not taking him seriously at all.

He knew that from the moment Lin Fan coveted Meng Zhirou, there was no room for compromise between them.

With his status as the Child of Destiny, the Child of Fortune, any woman Lin Fan desired would absolutely not be let go.

Anyone else who even had the thought of laying a hand on her would be seen as a mortal enemy.

And as Meng Zhirou's fiance, her actual husband, even if Lin Fan might have the backing of a Void Refinement Realm expert, he would not be so weak as to hand over his wife in exchange for so-called friendship.

Mo Yunxuan cupped his hands in a gesture that was impeccable in its etiquette, but his tone was somewhat indifferent.

"May I ask who this Young Master is? And why are you making such a commotion at the entrance of my Duke of Wei Mansion?"

Although Lin Fan was already on his kill list in his heart, he was still in a dormant phase.

It wasn't like he was groveling or acting subservient. As an Honest Kid who grew up in the 21st century, if there was one thing he had plenty of, it was basic politeness towards others, which would never make him feel wronged.

When the Duke of Wei's Imperial Guard surged out earlier, Lin Fan was so intimidated by their aura that he froze on the spot.

His third leg even showed signs of dampness.

Upon hearing Mo Yunxuan's question, he finally snapped back to reality, his face instantly flushing red with shame and anger.

"I didn't expect the dignified Duke of Wei Mansion to be such bullies who rely on their power?"

Mo Yunxuan was confused by his words. He recalled his own actions and thought to himself:

"Did I just have the Imperial Guard clear the area and then ask him a question? Was that bullying?"

"It seems... not, right?"

As he reached the last thought, Mo Yunxuan suddenly noticed how dense the water attribute was around Lin Fan, and immediately understood something.

The indifferent expression on his face faded, replaced by an undisguised mockery.

"Young Master, regarding whether my Duke of Wei Mansion is bullying people, this Lord will not make any judgment."

"You should quickly explain why you are making a commotion at my Duke of Wei Mansion, otherwise, this Lord will have no choice but to treat you as a traitor."

Lin Fan had been staring intently at Mo Yunxuan, naturally noticing the mockery on his face.

But looking at the Nascent Soul Realm Imperial Guards who had replaced the original Duke of Wei Mansion Guards and surrounded him, he almost buckled at the knees and knelt down. It was only the arrogance of the Child of Fortune that kept him holding on.

But this feeling of powerlessness made him feel deeply humiliated. When had he, Lin Fan, ever suffered such humiliation since entering the imperial city?

At this moment, Mo Yunxuan's mockery was like adding fuel to the fire, making him furious. For a moment, he overcame his fear.

He roared at Mo Yunxuan, "Mo Yunxuan, stop pretending! Is Meng Zhirou imprisoned in your mansion? Let her go quickly!"

Mo Yunxuan's eyes turned cold, killing intent filling his heart, but he remained outwardly calm.

He maintained his teasing tone, "This Lord knows you, you seem to be called Lin Fan, right?"

"I remember not long ago at Anle Marquis Manor, you were beaten and thrown out for trying to seduce Jun Tianxiao's fiancee."

Hearing him casually bring up his embarrassing past, Lin Fan immediately interrupted, "Mo Yunxuan! Don't change the subject! Where's Zhirou? Release her quickly, or don't blame me for being rude!"

Lin Fan interrupted Mo Yunxuan's words, but he didn't get angry. There was no need to argue with an animal.

He simply resumed his initial indifferent expression and said sternly:

"Young Master Lin, if I remember correctly, Meng Zhirou seems to have told you that she already has a husband."

"Is your persistent pestering not a bit inappropriate?"

"However, I am a kind-hearted person. If there's nothing else, then apologize and leave quickly."

After speaking, Mo Yunxuan waved his hand as if swatting a fly, and the disdain in his eyes was obvious to everyone.

The area where the Wei State Duke Mansion was located was filled with the residences of High Officials and Nobles. Most of the bystanders blocked by the Imperial Guard had decent cultivation.

Furthermore, the distance they were blocked from was not far, so they could easily hear the conversation between the two.

After understanding the reason for the matter, a noisy discussion suddenly erupted from the crowd.

"What! This Lin Fan has taken a liking to the Wei State Duke's fiancée again?"

"Is that true? Why does this Lin Fan always target other people's fiancées? Does he really have some special fetish?"

"This Lin Fan is indeed audacious. A few days ago, he dared to covet the Marquis Anle's fiancée, and today he dares to spy on the Wei State Duke's fiancée. I can't even imagine what he'll do in the future!"

Lin Fan clearly hadn't expected that Meng Zhirou's claim of having an engagement was actually true.

In an instant, public opinion reversed, and he became the unreasonable one.

But he was the Child of Fortune, how could he be wrong? No, he couldn't be wrong!

It must be Mo Yunxuan, this scoundrel must have threatened Zhirou, and she had no choice but to compromise. She must be in great pain right now!

What should I do? What can I do now?

Damn it!

Mo Yunxuan!

You damn dog!
