Chapter 28 Facing Consequences
"And my master is giving me leave by making me sick," Li Mei said, shooting a resentful glance toward Wang Chen.
'Why is she looking at me with resentment? And what's with the master? Wait, don't tell me she is my maid' Wang Chen's expression became weird when he came to this conclusion.
"Your master makes you sick and you still want to be with him?" Yue Jang said with confusion in his tone.
He can't understand as he was offering many benefits but this maid still wants to suffer under an inner disciple?
Yue Luang came near Yue Jang and whispered something in his ear.
"So he is your master!" Yue Jang now understood why this guy Wang Chen interfered and failed his plan.
"So, you are my maid right ?" Wang said to Li Mei to confirm his guess.
"..."
"Yes" Li Mei said in a simple tone and bowed toward him.
..
"Master help me get revenge on this guy as he beat me and even belittled you '' Yue Luang said with a helpless tone.
As thier plan for saving beauty in distress is failed and even got rejected by a maid who is just a mortal. As a loyal dog of Yue family he don't want someone to humiliate his master.
Yue Jang ponders Yue Luang's demand for revenge and suddenly a realization hits him. "I can't let this go," he mutters to himself.
'Wang Chen has overstepped his bounds by interfering in my affairs. It's time to show him what happens when he crosses me.' Now Yue Jang has a reason to pick a fight with Wang Chen, why would he waste such a golden chance.
Yue Jang turns to Yue Luang, giving him a nod of assurance and transmitting a message through Qi. "Don't worry, Yue Luang. I will make him pay for what he did and take your revenge. I will show him what happens when he messes with the people of Yue family."
Yue Luang grins, feeling emboldened by his master's words, whispered to Yue Jang. "Thank you, Master. With your help, we will surely triumph over this arrogant fool."
"So you are Wang Chen ? We just played this little act to catch you and I just didn't like the fact that you bullied your maid so that's why I suggested to her that she would become my maid but it looks like she didn't appreciate my kindness" Yue Jang said with a confident tone.
"Huh? What nonsense are you blabbering?" Wang exclaimed, his eyes widening in surprise as he listened to Yue Jang's accusations. He couldn't believe the shamelessness of this so-called protagonist.
It was just a while ago that he had been lusting over Li Mei's body and now he was trying to pass it off as an act to catch Wang Chen? Really shameless protagonist.
"I'm not talking nonsense. You bullied my family servant and belittled me," Yue Jang stated with a steely gaze. "You crossed a line and now you will face the consequences."
I'm not talking nonsense," Wang Chen said.
"I didn't bully your family servant nor did I ever belittle you. Your servant came on his own to sn...Arrrghhh," But before he could finish his sentence, he felt a sudden and heavy oppression that seemed to come out of nowhere. It was like a mountain had just been placed on his back, and he could feel himself being crushed under its weight.

Wang Chen fell to his knees, his head slamming into the ground as he groaned in pain.
The onlookers, who had been casually passing by, stopped in their tracks and saw this and said, "Hey, what's happening over there? Let's go and take a look." They couldn't resist the temptation of witnessing a good show
As more people gathered, whispers started to spread through the crowd.
One of them spoke up, "Hey, isn't that Yue Jang over there? The core disciple and the grandson of the Great Elder"
Someone exclaimed. "What could this man have done to anger him?" The disciples in the crowd looked on in awe.
Knowing that Yue Jang's cultivation level was much higher than theirs. "I don't want to get involved in this," one whispered to his friend. "Me neither," the other replied. "Let's just watch from the sidelines."
As Yue Jang continued to apply pressure to Wang Chen, the onlookers started to blame him for the situation. "He must have done something to offend Yue Jang," one of them said.
"Why else would he be taking such a punishment?" Another chimed in, "It's his own fault for not knowing who he's dealing with. You can't just go around offending people like Yue Jang and expect to get away with it."
...
Wang Chen's maid, who had been watching the scene from afar, could no longer bear to see her master suffer.
Li Mei stepped forward and pleaded with Yue Jang, "Please, Master Yue, I beg of you to stop this. It's all a misunderstanding. My master Wang Chen, didn't mean to offend you."
Yue Jang ignored Li Mei's plea and turned to face Wang Chen with a cold expression. "You should bear the consequences of your actions, Wang Chen. You can't just bully someone and think you can get away with it. Now, it's time for you to face the consequences" he said sternly.
"Dammit it aarrghhh" Wang Chen was seething with anger as he faced Yue Jang's cold expression. He couldn't help but curse himself for not taking into account the consequences of his actions. He had foolishly charged forward to destroy the Protagonist Yue Jang's plan of saving the beauty in distress, thinking that he could handle the situation on his own.
But now, he was paying the price for his rash decision.
The devouring fetus in his body was doing its best to devour the pressure, but even with its help, Wang Chen still felt like he was being crushed by a mountain.
As the pain continued to overwhelm him, Wang Chen couldn't help but regret his actions. If only he had been more cautious and had thought things through before acting, he wouldn't be in this predicament.
"You're the one bullying a weaker cultivator here, Yue Jang. Just because you couldn't get what you wanted doesn't mean you can take your frustration out on someone else" the voice said, directed towards Yue Jang. The onlookers turned to see who had spoken.
