Chapter 395: No Going Anywhere Without His Permission

Hearing this voice, Tuoba Yi’s buttocks tightened instantly, his face changing repeatedly as he nervously forced out an unnatural smile, “Third Brother, you must have heard wrong…”

He turned around, but before he could finish speaking, he was kicked in the chest, his hefty body flying off the ground and landing with a heavy thud, sending dust swirling into the air.

The men who had been following him, eager to attack the wolves, now looked as if they had seen a ghost. They stood speechless, not daring to help him up or meet Tuoba Xiao’s sharp gaze.

“Ouch… it hurts, my butt… Tuoba Xiao, how dare you hit me! I’ll tell Father… wuwuwu…” Tuoba Yi, who had been so arrogant just moments ago, now rubbed his buttocks and wailed like a frightened child.

Seeing such a big man still wanting to tattle, Su Youyue couldn’t help but twitch her lips.

However, seeing Tuoba Xiao’s indifferent expression, she finally understood that he wasn’t afraid of the clan leader at all. It made sense; he didn’t even fear the emperor of Dongrong, so why would he be afraid of a clan leader?

But why did Tuoba Yi call him Third Brother? What kind of brotherly relationship did they have?

While Su Youyue was still pondering, the wolf pack suddenly approached Tuoba Xiao, and she instinctively followed. When she reached the young man’s side, she quickly gave an awkward smile, pretending to be invisible.

Tuoba Xiao glanced at her, seemingly unconcerned, then lifted his eyes disdainfully to challenge the men who had come with Tuoba Yi, “If you want Xiaoyue’s skin, first consider whether all your hides combined can last me one night!”

The group of men looked panicked, hurriedly avoiding his gaze, none daring to speak or meet the eyes of this arrogant youth.

Seeing their cowardice, Tuoba Xiao had no intention of dealing with Tuoba Yi. He coldly snorted and was about to turn away when Nalan rushed over.

“Miss, are you alright?” Seeing Tuoba Xiao, Nalan didn’t dare call Su Youyue “Lady,” but she was worried about her well-being. After checking her over and finding no injuries, she sighed in relief and knelt before Tuoba Xiao.

“General, I have sinned. Young Master Tuoba Yi insisted on taking the miss, and I couldn’t stop him…”

Upon hearing this, Tuoba Xiao’s brow furrowed, as if he was piecing things together, and his gaze once again fell on Tuoba Yi.

Tuoba Yi, feeling aggrieved, saw him looking and immediately huffed, “Tuoba Xiao, I touched your woman, what are you going to do about it? If you’ve got the guts, kill me! You bastard! You dared to hit me, so don’t let your woman wander alone, or I’ll kill her!”

As soon as Tuoba Yi finished speaking, Su Youyue frowned, ready to protest that she wasn’t Tuoba Xiao’s woman. But the figure beside her suddenly lunged at Tuoba Yi on the ground, moving like a fierce wind, causing a chorus of gasps from those around them.

Her words died on her lips as she watched Tuoba Xiao punch Tuoba Yi relentlessly, as if determined to beat him to death.

At first, no one dared to intervene, but as Tuoba Yi’s cries of pain turned to weak gasps and he began spitting blood, they panicked and hurriedly tried to persuade him, “General Tuoba, stop! He is your second brother!”

“General Tuoba, if you continue, you’ll kill Young Master Tuoba Yi, and the clan leader will hold you accountable!”

Even Nalan, who had despised Tuoba Yi, was stunned and quickly grabbed Su Youyue’s hand, “Miss, miss, please persuade the general, he really will kill Young Master Tuoba Yi…”

Su Youyue watched as Tuoba Xiao continued his frenzied assault without restraint, and the fear she had once felt towards him returned. She wouldn’t risk her life to save a deadbeat, standing rooted to the spot, hoping they would fight each other to the death.

But Nalan was crying, “Young Master Tuoba Yi is the clan leader’s favorite son. If he dies, the clan leader will be furious, and everyone will suffer… including you, miss…”

By now, Tuoba Yi had passed out, but Tuoba Xiao showed no signs of stopping.

Only then did Su Youyue frown and tentatively speak, “Tuoba Xiao, stop…”

Nalan’s words were not without reason. If the clan leader of the Wolf Hunter Clan became angry, he wouldn’t dare confront Tuoba Xiao directly, but he might take it out on her.

She still wanted to find a way to slip away with the caravan.

Su Youyue’s voice was barely audible amidst the others’ pleas.

Yet, it was precisely her words that made the young man pause, his fist suspended in mid-air. He stared at the bloodied Tuoba Yi for a moment before getting up and kicking him aside.

Su Youyue was taken aback.

Could it be that he stopped because of her?

She doubted she had that much influence, but thinking about what had enraged Tuoba Xiao, she became uncertain.

Seeing the young man walk past her, Su Youyue quickly dismissed the thought.

Of course, he was Tuoba Xiao; why would he stop just because of her words?

As she stood there lost in thought, she heard his voice behind her.

“Aren’t you coming?”

Turning around, she saw his blue-green eyes fixed on her, and she slowly reacted, hurrying to follow his steps.

Now she fully understood that there was nothing in this world that Tuoba Xiao feared.

So, in front of him, she should be cautious with her words and actions.

Su Youyue remained as quiet as possible, not asking Tuoba Xiao why he hadn’t explained his identity or why he had beaten Tuoba Yi, which only added to the misunderstanding.

On the way, people who saw Tuoba Xiao’s bloodstained hands kept their distance, fearing the unpredictable general. To those who didn’t know, he seemed like a harbinger of doom.

Su Youyue didn’t realize how long she had been following Tuoba Xiao. Initially, her attention was on the passersby, but gradually, the surroundings grew quieter and less crowded. Eventually, they were surrounded by nothing but the grasslands, and she realized they had left the tribe.

The sky was ablaze with the evening sunset, as if the flames had spread to the grasslands, casting a fiery red glow across the horizon, giving everything a soft, warm light.

Tuoba Xiao’s figure, already a blend of youthful and mature lines, took on a gentle quality in the sunset, almost making him look like a kind visitor to the world.

But when he spoke, his tone was still as foul-tempered as ever, “Su Youyue, from now on, you’re not allowed to go anywhere without my permission. Don’t leave my side for even a step, understand?”
