Capítulo 1188: Chapter 855: Xiao Leizi Versus Little Overlord?

“Why are you making a mess? Go on, go on! Don’t disturb the Young Master’s important business!” Zhou Zongbao saw that Xiao Leizi’s voice was even louder than his, and immediately became serious and said sternly.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Leizi snorted with his little nose, his face twisted into a grimace. Suddenly, two glimmering cleavers appeared in his hands, and he clashed them together in front of Zhou Zongbao, producing a crisp sound of blades meeting, quite intimidating for a servant.

“Do you want to taste the might of my cleavers again?” Xiao Leizi muttered angrily, not backing down an inch.

“You! You! You!” Zhou Zongbao heard this, choked on his words, cleavers again! Back in Liuzhou City when they first met, this damn girl held a cleaver to his neck, nearly spilling blood within five paces! And now she’s doing it again! This… this…

“You ungrateful brat! Young Master is your elder! You should be calling Young Master your great uncle, and yet you dare sharpen your knife at Young Master, just you wait, just you wait and see how the Young Master… I…”

As Zhou Zongbao spoke, he began looking around for any weapon that could match the cleavers in Xiao Leizi’s hands, hoping to find a divine weapon that could match them!

“Oh dear, daughter, don’t do this, don’t do this, quickly put your cleavers away. Such a young lady, why do you always hang cleavers at your waist? If your Imperial Grandfather finds out, he’ll certainly lecture you again, please put the cleavers away quickly!” Elder Du, upon seeing his daughter brandish the cleavers again, immediately had three black lines cross his forehead. He anxiously advised her.

Xiao Leizi’s grandfather is none other than the Emperor of Great Zhou, also known as Emperor Zhoulin.

In the past, whenever Emperor Zhoulin’s lectures were mentioned, Xiao Leizi would relent, but this time, it was clearly ineffective.

Xiao Leizi shook his head resolutely, “No way! I want The Lord to agree to take me; I haven’t seen my wife in a long time. I’ve thought of several new ways to make snacks and dishes and haven’t let my wife taste them yet!”

“You…” Elder Du was genuinely helpless.

He finally acknowledged his beloved daughter’s child, who he cherishes dearly, fearing she might dissolve if held too closely. Even his own wife knows his intentions, treating their daughter like a treasure, yet his daughter is quite the opposite!

She refuses to be a proper little princess or the esteemed lady of the Elder’s Mansion but prefers the kitchen, loves cooking. While it may be a minor interest for a girl, it is not necessarily inappropriate. However, the key is, their daughter didn’t only love entering the kitchen. She loved going to the Heavenly Palace’s kitchen, even more so as a kitchen maid for the Southern Emperor!

This…

What is a dignified Elder supposed to say?

Elder Du was at a loss for words.

But Elder Du believed that Emperor Lin, as the grandfather of his daughter’s uncle, would feel even more at a loss!

Having a niece who loves being a kitchen maid, Emperor Zhoulin’s bellyful of bitter tears probably isn’t any less than his, right?

Only through comparison can one find balance. Elder Du found that while his status as an Elder was prestigious, compared to Emperor Zhoulin, it was still slightly lacking. Both losing face together, clearly, being an Emperor, Zhoulin’s loss would be bigger than an Elder’s!

Thinking this way, Elder Du felt a bit balanced!

Of course, this balance is only relative! Every time he remembers his daughter’s determination to be a kitchen maid, Elder Du’s heart actually rejects it! Rejects it!

Still, fortunately, his daughter wants to be the kitchen maid for the Southern Emperor. Who is the Southern Emperor? Even Emperor Lin would show him respect, so thinking this way, Elder Du felt there wasn’t anything unacceptable!

After all, it’s just a bit embarrassing; he has Emperor Lin in front of him shielding him. Besides, this involved the Southern Emperor, so there really isn’t anyone daring enough to gossip about his daughter being the kitchen maid for the Southern Emperor!

Thinking about it like this, Elder Du felt relieved, more relaxed, and could accept it as a matter of course…

“You little girl! You little girl! Is there anyone who bullies someone like this? You think you’re great just because you have a kitchen knife? If you’ve got the guts, chop me! Chop me! Young Master is standing right here, not moving an inch. If I move even slightly, then I’m not your master, I’m your grandson!” He searched everywhere, but couldn’t find a handy divine weapon, because Zhou Zongbao felt that no matter how mighty the weapon was, it was useless against this violent girl waving a kitchen knife. It was just a showpiece, of little use! He might as well obediently offer his neck to the blade because, after all, this girl wouldn’t dare really hurt him!

“You! You! Master Bao, you have no shame! You bully people just because you’re older! Just you wait! Just you wait! When my lady returns, I’m going to tell her about how you always take advantage of Sister Qiu. Let’s see if my lady doesn’t knock your teeth out!” Xiao Leizi was instantly infuriated by Zhou Zongbao’s words. The kitchen knife in his hand looked mighty, but no matter what, he couldn’t bring it down.

Who was in front of him? This was the one and only Prince Bao of Great Zhou, the Little Overlord Hetian! Of course, that wasn’t the key point. The key point was that this person was genuinely Xiao Leizi’s senior!

If physical force couldn’t suppress him, then he had to rely on his wife’s backing!

After all, no matter how formidable Prince Bao was, he was still scared of his own wife!

When Zhou Zongbao heard Xiao Leizi mention Gu Changsheng, that was truly his Achilles’ heel. He had suffered countless times before that tigress Gu Changsheng, and the memories were still fresh in his mind, the fear lingering. Zhou Zongbao would rather offend anyone else than provoke that tigress!

Hence, Zhou Zongbao immediately felt a bit disheartened. However, thinking about how failing to argue his case might mean being separated from his beloved Xiao Qiu, Zhou Zongbao was instantly revitalized, raising his head and shouting defiantly, “You think Young Master is afraid? Isn’t it just Gu Changsheng? If you’ve got the guts, call her over and see if I’m scared of her! In the Capital City, who doesn’t know, Young Master is known as Little Overlord Hetian, fearing neither heaven nor earth. Am I afraid of her? Ridiculous!”

Originally, in the deep night, so many people gathered at the Heavenly Palace Gate to bid farewell to Gu Taitian. But thanks to these two’s commotion, the scene suddenly became a bit out of control…

Neither of them would give an inch, neither was easy to deal with, and while they argued with flushed faces, fiercely debating about who would accompany Gu Taitian northward, the crowd, following Gu Taitian’s raised hand signal, silently parted, with Han Qiu and Xiao Cui closely guarding the hearse as the carriage wheels silently rolled to the side…

Yet, the two still contended over the northward spots, arguing incessantly.

Unbeknownst to them, the surrounding people started looking at them with a tinge of sympathy. How could they not?

They were arguing back and forth, while the main person had already quietly slipped away. No matter how fiercely they fought, it would amount to nothing, like fetching water with a bamboo basket.

“You! How dare you say such things about my lady, Master Bao, you’re formidable! I hope you can maintain this mountain-crushing spirit when my lady returns!” Xiao Leizi rarely spoke so sharply, holding a kitchen knife in both hands, arms akimbo. Always considering chubbiness as beauty, she was quite a sight, especially after being dressed up meticulously by Madam Du, she truly had a dignified grandeur.

“Hmph! Young Master only listens to Xiao Qiu, not buying anyone else’s tricks! What about that tigress Gu Changsheng? You all fear her, but Young Master doesn’t! She’s due to marry my Little Wood, and I’m her elder! I’d like to see what she can do to me! Hmph!” Zhou Zongbao got more and more enthusiastic as he spoke. After all, since Gu Changsheng wasn’t present, the people around couldn’t touch him, and he might as well make up for all the grievances he suffered under her before!

“You! You! You!” Hearing this, Xiao Leizi was so angrily flustered that her chest heaved, but she said nothing. Then, she tapped the waist strap with enthusiasm and declared, “You’re amazing! Let’s see if Sister Qiu will judge you, see if you’re scared! Sister Qiu… huh? Where’s Sister Qiu? Where’s The Lord? They’ve run away!”

Xiao Leizi searched the crowd as she spoke.

Of course, the result was already fated to be fruitless.

Gu Taitian’s carriage had already sped away, now several streets away.

“It’s all your fault! If it weren’t for you fighting with Young Master, my Xiao Qiu wouldn’t have secretly run off! Without you, what could Young Master possibly live for!” When Zhou Zongbao found that except for people, the carriage was nowhere in sight, he immediately slapped his thigh and plopped down on the ground, wailing in profound sorrow, his voice rendering the world dim in comparison.

“You’re just like Zhu Bajie, twisting the facts! I can even cook, I can fight, what can you do?” Xiao Leizi’s mood worsened upon seeing the carriage gone, pointing at Zhou Zongbao and yelling back, “Do you know what my lady says about you? You’re as useless as a rice bucket, a hot air balloon of Yama Raja! You’re a complete waste, it’d be strange if my lady would agree to give Sister Qiu to you. You just wait, no matter how long you stare into the distance, my lady won’t let you have Sister Qiu, and you’ll have plenty of crying to do in the future! Hmph! Hmph! Hmph!”

“You unworthy descendant, don’t run! Come over here! Young Master promises not to beat you to death! I won’t beat you to death!” Zhou Zongbao was infuriated, slapping his butt and climbing up the steps, lunging towards Xiao Leizi.

“Oh no, murder! Arson! Little Overlord Hetian is losing it, I’m outta here…”
