Chapter 1640: Impending Bloodshed
With a face frozen in shock, Old Lady Nangong could no longer deny the accusations. Tears and snot covered her face as she cried, “Yu’er, your grandmother had no other choice. It was Lou Wushuang. She forced me to do it. If I didn’t do as she said, she threatened to kill our entire Nangong Family.”
“*Sob*, Yu’er, I’m your biological grandmother! Are you just going to stand by and watch your relatives die? No matter how good Xi Yue is, she’s still an outsider. No matter how wonderful a woman she is, once you’re in Siam, wouldn’t there be others you could marry?”
“Your Second Uncle is also in the hands of the Lou Family. If you dare to take action against the Lou Family, our Nangong Family will be doomed. After all, you bear the surname of Nangong! Do you want to watch all your relatives die for the sake of a woman?”
Nangong Yu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. A chilling smile crept upon his face. His eyes were devoid of warmth. “The Nangong Family is doomed, you say? That’s fantastic. I wouldn’t even want to dirty my hands killing you all myself!”
After saying that, he grabbed Xiao Chi and jumped into the air.
Gu Liufeng, Xi Jia, Qing Luan, and Ouyang Haoxuan quickly followed. They only cared about Xi Yue’s life and death at this moment.
Qing Long and Wu Xin, however, stayed behind and surrounded the woman in white and Old Lady Nangong.
There was panic in the eyes of the woman in white. She looked around. Three Nascent Soul Stages, with formidable strength, surrounded her.
Moreover, she was only at the intermediate level of the Nascent Soul Stage. She stood no chance facing seven opponents alone.
“Don’t… don’t come any closer. This is the Old Lady of the Nangong family. Don’t you care whether she lives or dies?”
Responding to her, Wu Xin coldly gestured with a wave of his hand, “Do it!”
Moments later, in the dark, silent alley, the smell of blood permeated the air. Lying on the ground were a woman in white and an old lady with graying hair. Both had their eyes wide open, their gazes filled with fear and disbelief.
The night was still young. The real battle and bloodshed had yet to begin.
…
At the foot of the Cang Mountains, red silk was now spread out, and the noise was earth-shattering.
Yanjing City was only that big, but the guests attending Nangong Yu and Xi Yue’s wedding numbered in the hundreds if not thousands. Consequently, many banquet tables were also set up here.
For example, the 100,000 Zhenwei Army, the staff from various branches of Shengde Hall, and some low-rank martial artists who came from afar to the wedding.
Although it wasn’t as lively here as at the King of h.e.l.l Mansion and the Qiong Luo Banquet, the wine and spiritual food provided were also of excellent quality, with a rich aroma permeating the air.
Zhou Yanan wore a scholar outfit. He squinted and smiled as he watched his younger brothers, Zhou Huaian and Chen Guang, laughing heartily while they enjoyed the feast.
Wei Dashao and Xi San also joined in. Hearty laughter was everywhere in the banquet.
Chen Bai was sitting next to Zhou Yanan, watching this scene. He couldn’t help but sigh, “It feels like yesterday when we pledged our loyalty to the young master and followed him to serve Miss, who was then disguised as a man and only at the Foundation Establishment Stage. In the blink of an eye, she has reached the Gold Core stage, about to marry into the King of h.e.l.l Mansion. Our Shengde Hall has expanded beyond our wildest dreams. Now, who in the Miluo Continent doesn’t know of our existence?”
Zhou Yanan smiled and nodded repeatedly, his eyes sparkling.
He would never forget the days when Gu Liufeng was kidnapped by the Murong Family and Shengde Hall closed down. He was left with no place to go.
He would never forget how Xi Jue reached out to him at the pivotal moment, bringing Shengde Hall back from the brink of collapse and restoring its name to glory across the world.
