Sent flying with a kick
Even before she managed to ask Di Zhe who this person was, he moved in front of Di Zhe in a flash and sent a punch flying towards him.
Di Zhe did not retaliate and obediently accepted this punch. His lips tore and fresh blood leaked from it.
"You actually killed Meng Ru Ji. Do you know how important the Meng Clan was to us? Huh? Do you know, by killing Meng Ru Ji, how negatively you have impacted our Di Clan? Ah!"
As the elder said this, he was sending a second punch flying towards Di Zhe. However, this time, Di Zhe did not obediently accept it as before. His body flashed and he dodged.
However, this action seemed to infuriate this elder even more as he adjusted his body and attacked Di Zhe again. However, Di Zhe avoided it again.
"Who is this person? He even dares to beat up Cousin." Sima You Yue asked Di Liu.
"That is Master's grandfather, the Third Elder of the Di Clan. The Patriarch of the Di Clan is the Great Lord, Third Elder's blood brother." Di Liu explained.
Sima You Yue looked at Di Zhe who was running all over the courtyard dodging and was surprised, "Didn't they say that Cousin wasn't afraid of anyone? Wasn't his relationship with his clan extremely bad? Why does he tolerate his grandfather like that?"
"Right now, the only one who can say anything to Di Zhe in the whole of Di Clan is Third Elder." Di Liu said emotionally.
"Eh? Why is that?"
"You've also heard of how Master's life was back in the Di Clan in the past. Because his talent was poor, he was bullied often and almost died a few times. It was only after the Dark Princess found out about his situation that it changed." Di Liu said.
Sima You Yue nodded. She knew about that as well. Di Liu's talent wasn't great in the past, and in this world where the strong were revered, his life was naturally hard. Later on, it was Mother who helped to change his physique and allowed his talent to soar. That was why he was the closest to mother, and because of that, he always thought of how to rescue her.
"DId his parents not care about him?"
"Master's parents never saw him. As for Master's mother, she was gone long ago. Otherwise, Master would not have suffered so." Di Liu said with heartache.
After all, she was still a princess. If she was around, they would have to show the royal clan some face. However, since she was not around, Di Zhe's life was like a living nightmare.
"It is precisely because of what happened before that Master has a bad relationship with the Di Clan and never cares about them. If not because of the Princess's orders, he might even have exterminated the Di Clan. However, Princess said that Master's reputation has already reached this stage, so if he exterminates even his own clan, Ghost King would never allow the royal clan to produce a person like that. At that time, it would cause a lot of trouble for him. It's only because of that that the Di Clan is able to be here today." Di Liu continued to say, "The Di Clan knows as well that they used to treat Master badly, so they rarely appear in front of him. They're afraid that he might accidentally kill them."
"Did this Third Elder treat him well?"
"He didn't treat him very well, but he did speak up for him a few times when Young Master almost died. It's just that it was rare for that to happen in the clan. However, at that time, the Third Elder didn't possess much authority, so it wasn't of much help to him." Di Liu said.
"A person like Cousin looks very fierce, but he actually prioritises comradeship. That is why, towards the grandfather who used to speak up for him, he still possesses some affection. It's a pity that someone doesn't treasure it." Sima You Yue looked at Third Elder Di. Every attack was so heavy handed, how did he care about Di Zhe at all?
"Third Elder wasn't like this in the past either. However, in recent years, he feels that as Master's Grandfather and also that he had treated Master decently in the past, adding on to that, the fact that Master treats him rather respectfully, he thinks he's all that.
"Sigh some people are just ungrateful wretches!" Sima You Yue sighed. As Di Liu was about to reply to her, he realised that she had disappeared. When he turned around, he saw that she had appeared in front of Di Zhe.
With a raise of her leg, Third Elder Di was sent flying.
"Bang-"
He rolled all the way to the rock garden in the courtyard and shattered it.
Everyone in the courtyard was shocked by this scene. Especially Di Liu as well as Di Yi and Di Er and the rest who had rushed over. They looked at Sima You Yue with both shock and awe.
Although they had always wanted to do that, none of them dared to. They didn't think that the first thing she would do upon arriving here would be to do what they've always wanted to do.
Di Zhe was rather puzzled as well. He saw Sima You Yue turn around and say to him with a smile, "Sorry, I destroyed your garden. It was hurting my eyes, so I had to take things into my own hands."
"Who are you? You dare to attack me?!" Third Elder Du crawled up from the ground. He pointed at Sima You Yue and yelled at her while scolding Di Zhe, "You're just going to watch as someone attacks your grandfather?"
Sima You Yue turned around and looked at Third Elder Du, saying icily, "I just wanted to attack you, so what? If you continue to F*** around here, I'll hack you into pieces!"
"You…" Third Elder Du saw her face and was rooted to the spot with shock. He even forgot to put down the hand that he was pointing at her with.
"What about me?" Sima You Yue knew that he recognised her and continued, "Cousin doesn't want to attack you, but it doesn't mean that I won't. I don't really care about respecting someone just because they're older or about people who want compensation for kindness given. Or are you saying that I have no right to touch you?"
"I…"
"What about you? Whatever you have done before, Cousin has already repaid you in full all these years. My mother has already preserved the life of your clan that year, but whenever I feel in the mood for it, I might take it all back. In any case, I'm the Female Killing God, there's nothing that I dare not do. Do you want to try me?"
"You… Di Zhe would never agree to it!" Third Elder Di looked at her face, and felt like she was even scarier than Yu Ke Luo was that year.
"What does his agreement have to do with me? If I want to do it, I will. Who can stop me?" Sima You Yue huffed icily, "If you dare to act against Cousin again, I won't mind using you to sharpen my blade! Scram!"
Third Elder Di knew about what happened in Sheep City, and also knew the Ghost King's attitude towards her now. He dared not use his life as a wager against the apple of the Ghost King's eye, and someone who had the nickname Female Killing God. As such, he ran away dejectedly.
Di Zhe didn't speak at all and Sima You Yue turned around. When she saw his expression that was conflicted between joy and anger, she walked over to him and patted his shoulder, saying, "He was only good to you for a moment. You don't have to remember it for a lifetime. There are some people who treat you well for a moment, but it doesn't mean that they're still good now. You've already repaid him so much and tolerated him for so many years. It's enough."
"Why do I feel like you're petting a dog?" Di Zhe stared at her, and finally said this after a long time.
Sima You Yue smiled until her eyes formed little crescents, "How did you know what I was thinking?"
