493 Beating People Up!
The guard obediently raised the rod in his hand and said, “I don’t care who you are, but anyone who has nothing to do with Valor Gate cannot enter!”
Shen Ruojing took a deep breath and was about to say something, but the fifth senior brother rushed over in a hurry.
“Junior Brother, what are you doing? After all, she is Little Junior Brother’s sister-in-law…”
He then held down the rod in the guard’s hand and said to Shen Ruojing, “Sister-in-law, I know you’re eager to save Little Junior Brother, but today is the day of the court trial, and outsiders are not allowed to enter according to Valor Gate’s rules.”
But when he looked at Chu Cichen, at the red-eyed Bai Shanshan and Chu’s wife, and especially at Chu Xiaoqi who was gnawing on her fingers… the fifth senior brother made a tough decision and said, “Sister-in-law, follow me!”
He turned around and blocked the guard. “Okay, you can go in now!”
He then shouted, “Sister-in-law, don’t go in alone, you should bring Big Brother Chu with you! Even if you break into the courtyard, you can’t save anyone as you are a woman!”
Shen Ruojing: “…”
The guard who was held down by the fifth senior brother exerted all his strength and yelled. Seven and eight Valor Gate disciples then rushed out immediately.
The eldest senior brother had long since arranged things and wouldn’t allow anyone to break in, so how could he only send one person to guard here?
At this moment, the seven or eight Valor Gate disciples surrounded the fifth senior brother, and then the eldest senior brother walked out of the door, staring at the fifth senior brother with a cold gaze. “What? Do you also want to violate Valor Gate’s rules?”
The fifth senior brother shouted, “I don’t, all these people are Little Junior Brother’s relatives, so they are also considered Valor Gate people. They should be able to enter now!”
“Nonsense. From the moment he enters the punishment hall, he is a criminal of Valor Gate, not a member of Valor Gate! Today, no one should think of taking a step into Valor Gate!”
After saying that, the eldest senior brother and a few of his disciples blocked the entrance.
Shen Ruojing. “…”
Before the fifth senior brother could say anything, Shen Ruojing spoke directly, “Get lost.”
The eldest senior brother was taken aback. “What did you say?”
Shen Ruojing sneered. “I said, get lost!”
The eldest senior brother immediately became angry. “Woman, how dare you curse us. If you continue doing so, our Valor Gate people may have to take action! Don’t think we won’t hit women!”
The fifth senior brother immediately shouted, “Sister-in-law, watch out for their rods!”
Matriarch Chu also became anxious. “Jingjing, come back first.”
Bai Shanshan also shouted, “Sister-in-law, Cimo chose to comply with the trial, don’t waste your effort…”
After the two finished speaking, they looked at Chu Cichen together. “You go protect Jingjing!”
However, Chu Cichen just stood there and didn’t move.
He was diligently completing the task assigned by Shen Ruojing.
She had said that as long as a dozen people came, they could enter and help Chu Cimo plead his case.
But only four people had arrived so far, which was still too few.
Chu Cichen sighed silently, paying no attention to them.
Shen Ruojing also ignored the advice of those behind her and stepped forward, saying, “Who dares to stop me?”
Upon hearing this, the eldest senior brother sneered and said, “Who do you think you are? We dare to stop you. It’s just because you’re a woman that you’d better be obedient and follow the rules. Take another step forward and we’ll get physical!”
Shen Ruojing took another step forward, and the eldest senior brother became furious, saying, “Since you won’t accept a toast, you’ll have to drink a forfeit. Brothers, let’s attack!”
Immediately, the group of people rushed toward Shen Ruojing with their clubs.
The fifth senior brother shouted, “You guys aren’t even human! How can you guys hit women? Eldest Senior Brother, show some mercy!”
He ran toward Shen Ruojing, trying to stand in front of her, but he was stopped by a slender hand.
He then felt himself being pushed back a step.
Shen Ruojing then stepped forward. With a dazzling display of technique, she knocked the group of Valor Gate disciples to the ground.
Even the eldest senior brother was clutching his stomach, his face turning pale from the pain.
Shen Ruojing stood there, coldly looking at them and sneering.
The eldest senior brother glared at her and said, “You actually attacked me at the entrance of Valor Gate?! Are you trying to oppose the entire Valor Gate?”
Shen Ruojing ignored him and walked straight ahead, past him.
The eldest senior brother immediately raised his rod, trying to stop her, but he was kicked away easily by Shen Ruojing. The eldest senior brother knew he wasn’t a match for her, so he pointed at Shen Ruojing and said, “Fine, since I can’t defeat you, I’ll get some backups!”
After that, he directly sped into Valor Gate.
The fifth senior brother and the Chu family were all bewildered, except for Chu Cichen.
The fifth senior brother murmured, “Sister-in-law?”
He then came back to his senses and said urgently, “Sister-in-law, run! The eldest senior brother is going to call our grand martial uncle and the others. You’re definitely no match for them! How can you, a single person, stand up against the entire Valor Gate?”
But Shen Ruojing calmly walked inside.
The fifth senior brother hurriedly followed behind her, and then he found that the “sister-in-law” in front of him seemed to be very familiar with Valor Gate.
To get to the punishment hall from this entrance, there were several turns to take, but every time he was about to remind her, she had turned the corner!
While he was hesitating, he saw the eldest senior brother rushing out with a few people, pointing at Shen Ruojing and shouting, “Grand Martial Uncle, Second Martial Uncle, it’s her! She trespassed into Valor Gate and we couldn’t stop her! She even beat us! You must help us out!”
The fifth senior brother immediately shouted, “Grand Martial Uncle, Second Martial Uncle, she is the sister-in-law of Junior Brother Cimo. She was just acting impulsively because she was worried about him…”
Before he could finish explaining, the eldest senior brother roared, “We already said no one was allowed to enter, but she broke in like this. Even if she was anxious, she already damaged the reputation of Valor Gate. What are you blabbering about here?!”
After the eldest senior brother finished speaking, he looked at the grand martial uncle and said, “Grand Martial Uncle, please teach her a lesson and let her know about the rules of Valor Gate. She must have been instigated by the Shen family to do this. Both the Shen family and the Chu family are treating Valor Gate with contempt. They are simply arrogant!”
As he said that, the eldest senior brother eagerly waited for the grand martial uncle to take action.
But even after waiting for a long time, he did not hear the grand martial uncle say anything. He turned his head in confusion and looked at his own father. “Father, Grand Martial Uncle, what are you all doing?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the grand martial uncle say helplessly. “Why do you have to make such a big fuss when returning home?”
There was a hint of indulgence and helplessness in his tone.
The eldest senior brother was bewildered and even felt a little flattered. Was the eldest uncle speaking to him in such a gentle tone?
However, something was not right. He had been at home all this time, so how could he ‘return home’?
Just as he was thinking about this, a faint voice rang out from behind him…
