C2431 Xiao ning's return to the mansion
CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO Xiao Ning returned to his residence
Yang Liefeng laughed and said: "You are overthinking things. In the lowest realm among warriors, there is no instability, as long as it does not harm the Dantian, and furthermore, your talent is the Holy Spirit's bloodline, so it is even harder to damage the foundation. Because this talent is basically equivalent to a higher level of spirit energy, with the Holy Spirit's bloodline, you will be fine."
"If something could really happen with the help of the Holy Spirit's bloodline, then his foundation wouldn't be as stable as it is now."
Xiao An immediately felt relieved when he heard this. A smile reappeared on her charming face. Her pair of beautiful eyes curved into a crescent shape, appearing as adorable and enchanting as a crescent moon.
"Then I am relieved!" Xiao An grinned.
Xiao Ping, who was at the side, also relaxed after hearing this.
Yang Liefeng said while beaming: "The only flaw in becoming stronger is cultivation, I never thought that your cultivation talent would be so strong. Xiao An, work hard, don't be arrogant, you will definitely become a strong person!"
"Hall Master, I will do my best. Rest assured!" Xiao An restrained his smile as he spoke with a serious expression.
"Alright, I believe you. Come and drink some tea with me." Yang Liefeng said while beaming. He had high hopes for Xiao An.
After a genius was suppressed, being destroyed was one thing, but if it wasn't destroyed, then he would grow even more powerful!
Xiao An had also experienced pain and weakness before, but no matter what was said, she had endured until now with the help of Yang Liefeng, and then, she would be able to turn the tide and rise to greatness!
She was a true genius, had strong innate talent, shocking cultivation talent, had experienced such destruction, trained her character, and also had the high level cultivation technique, Holy Spirit Realm technique that Yang Liefeng had given her. The only thing left for her to become a strong warrior was time and opportunity!
? ?.
The Shen family wasn't located in Spirit Yue City, but in the Ancient Spirit City, which was right next to the Spirit Yue City. It was the number one family in the Ancient Spirit City, however, it was still a little weaker than the Xiao family.
Shen family, a side hall.
"What!?" My third sister was killed by Xiao Nan! "
In the side hall, Shen Chun, the Patriarch of the Shen family, heard from a young man that Shen Qiu had been killed by Xiao Nan.
This young man was none other than the young man who witnessed Shen Qiu's corpse. He was originally a member of the Shen Clan and had followed Shen Qiu to the Xiao Residence.
"Clan Head, it is absolutely true. This humble one has personally seen the corpse of the Third Miss in the side chamber. Moreover, Xiao Nan also said clearly that he was the one who killed her." The young man said in a sorrowful tone.
"How did this happen? Why did Xiao Nan kill my third sister?"
Shen Chun clenched his fist and asked furiously.
"Xiao Nan said that he killed the third young miss because the third young miss wanted to harm Xiao An." The young man quickly replied.
"Xiao An?" Who is Xiao An? " When Shen Chun heard this, he was stunned for a moment before he asked in a daze. He simply couldn't recall who Xiao An was and why there was such a person in the Xiao Mansion.
From how Shen Chun didn't recognize Xiao An, it was clear how much trouble Xiao An had suffered from Shen Qiu over the years.
Back then, Shen Chun knew that Shen Qiu had given Xiao An a Blood Control Curse because this matter was a little big. She had to have someone backing her and did not dare to make such a decision.
Shen Chun considered that Xiao An wasn't Shen Qiu's biological daughter and didn't want Xiao An to grow stronger. He was worried that it would affect Shen Qiu's position in the Xiao Residence. Thus, he agreed to Shen Qiu's Blood Control Curse.
However, they didn't remember Xiao An's name. Back then, they had called him that girl.
When the youth heard this, he hurriedly said, "It's that trash's daughter, Xiao Nan."
"It's her!" Shen Chun's face suddenly changed when he heard this. His heart trembled slightly.
As it involved Xiao An, he was slightly anxious. After all, it was one thing if he didn't expose what had happened that day. He didn't even dare to imagine how angry Xiao Nan would be once he did.
Although his Shen family currently had an enormous potential, Shen Changsheng, who had the support of the Ming Dong Sect, he had not yet grown up, and the Ming Ming Sect was also unlikely to help their Shen family directly go against the Xiao Mansion.
After all, sects had their own rules. Many of their outstanding disciples came from great clans. Therefore, sects usually wouldn't interfere in the battles between clans to avoid unnecessary trouble.
"Didn't Xiao Nan never really care about this good-for-nothing daughter of his? Why did you suddenly kill your own woman because of her? " Shen Chun's heart was in turmoil as he asked the young man.
The youth shook his head, "Patriarch, this one doesn't know about this matter. This one also feels that something is strange."
"Then, before this happened, did there be any unusual activity within the Xiao Residence?" Shen Chun frowned and asked.
"Strange movements?" When the young man heard this, he frowned and thought for a moment. Then, he shook his head. "There's no unusual movement."
"Okay, you can go down first. Call the young lady, Lord Fourth, and the three elders over to me." Shen Chun said with an icy face.
"Yes sir!" The youth quickly turned around and left.
Not long after the youth left, a man and a woman, both middle-aged, arrived at the side hall.
"Big Brother, what do you want to talk to us about?"
A man and a woman asked Shen Chun simultaneously.
The two of them were the young miss of the Shen family, Shen Xia, and the fourth master of the Shen family, Shen Dong.
It was Shen Chun's second sister and fourth brother.
As a male member of the Shen Clan, it was normal for Shen Dong to remain in the Shen Clan.
Shen Xia, on the other hand, was a woman. She should have married, but Shen Xia didn't want any men to touch her, so she didn't agree to marry. Thus, she stayed at the Shen family to be her eldest miss.
Even though she was already in her forties this year ?
"When the three Elders arrive, let's discuss it together." Shen Chun said with an ugly expression.
When Shen Xia and Shen Dong heard this, they nodded their heads with a slightly grave expression.
Not too long later, the three elders of the Shen Clan arrived at the side hall.
"Alright, since everyone's here, then I'll say my piece."
Seeing that everyone was present, Shen Chun's gaze swept across the crowd and said.
"Please speak, Patriarch." The three Elders said.
"My third sister was killed!" Shen Chun's complexion turned awful. Hatred surged in his eyes as he spoke.
"What!"
As expected, everyone was shocked when they heard this.
"How could that be? Big brother, third sister was killed?"
"It can't be, third sister was killed?"
Shen Xia, Shen Dong's face shook as he asked in surprise.
Shen Chun's face was dark as he nodded his head vigorously.
"How could this be? Who killed Third Sister?"
Shen Xia clenched her fists, anger surging in her eyes as she asked Shen Chun.
The gazes of the rest were also locked onto Shen Chun's body.
Shen Chun's icy voice squeezed out from the gaps between his teeth, "Xiao Nan!"
"What!"
After finding out that the killer was Xiao Nan, Shen Xia, Shen Dong, and the three elders of the Shen family were once again shocked.
"How could that be? Why would brother-in-law kill Third Sister?" Shen Dong asked in disbelief.
"Like I said, marriage is a grave. Third Sister just won't listen. Now that's good, are you dead?"
With a cold expression, Shen Xia, who loathed marriage, said in a somewhat angry tone.
"Chief, is the situation accurate?" The Great Elder's expression was somewhat ugly as he asked.
If Shen Qiu had truly been killed by Xiao Nan, then this matter wouldn't be a matter between the Xiao family and Shen family. This matter was related to the relationship between the Xiao family and the Shen family.
Shen Chun nodded his head, his gaze incomparably cold. How could the words that Shen Qiu brought along be fake?
"For what?" Shen Dong still found it hard to believe.
"Because Third Sister wants to harm Xiao An!" Shen Chun's eyes were cold as he said.
"Xiao An?"
Xiao An was a name unfamiliar to the Shen family. Even Shen Chun, who had participated in the framing of Xiao An, didn't remember this name, let alone them.
"Xiao An is that trash's daughter, Xiao Nan." Shen Chun said.
"So it's her!"
They said that no one in the Xiao family knew about Xiao An, but they knew that Xiao Nan was the trash's daughter because Xiao Nan was the head of the Xiao family. As such, the upper echelons of the Shen family would naturally know about the matters related to him.
"Why did Third Sister want to kill that trash daughter of Xiao Nan?" Shen Xia puzzledly asked.
The Others looked at Shen Chun with questioning eyes.
Shen Chun shook his head, "I don't know about this matter. However, it might be because of that matter. If it is because of that matter, then perhaps our Shen family will start a war with the Xiao family!"
Ah!
Hearing that the Shen family might even start a war with the Xiao family, Shen Xia, Shen Dong, and the three elders of the Shen family were shocked.
Because according to Shen Chun's words, if it was because of that matter, the Shen family would be forced to accept the challenge even if they had to start a war with the Xiao family.
After Xiao Nan killed Shen Qiu, he was still in the wrong. Why would he want to fight with the Shen family?
Furthermore, even though the Shen family's current strength is a little weaker than the Xiao family's, with Shen Changsheng, a member of the family with astonishing potential, the Xiao family shouldn't be willing to start a war with the Shen family.
"What is it?"
After a moment of shock, Shen Dong asked.
Others did not ask, but looked at Shen Chun with an inquiring look.
Shen Chun's face turned ugly as he said somewhat embarrassedly, "Speaking of this matter, it's my Shen family that tricked the Xiao family. If this matter were to be exposed, it would be normal for Xiao Nan to kill Third Sister out of anger."
"Ah?!" What kind of thing could make Xiao Nan so angry? " Shen Xia's brows knitted tightly as she asked in astonishment.
Shen Chun took a deep breath and told the rest of the upper echelons of the Shen family about the Blood Controlling Curse he had planted in Xiao An after their agreement ?
Because at this point, he was worried that this matter had already been exposed. If that was the case, then he would need the strength of his entire residence to contend against the Xiao Clan. Naturally, he couldn't let them be confused.
"What!?" That trash of the Xiao Residence actually possesses the bloodline of the Holy Spirit?! "
"Was that trash suffering from scurvy because of the Blood Controlling Curse? Is it difficult to cultivate?"
"Oh god, this is really vicious!"
"Damn, if I were you, I would also want to kill Third Sis!"
After knowing what Shen Qiu had done to Xiao An, the other upper echelons of the Shen family were all shocked.
Xiao An was originally a trash in their eyes, but he turned out to be a genius with a powerful bloodline like the Holy Spirit. This incident had a huge impact on them.
Shen Dong thought for a moment. If he was Xiao An, who was originally a dazzling pearl and a heaven's pride expert with potential, he would have been cast a blood curse and become a useless person. He would have to suffer both physical and mental pain.
After thinking about it, he realized that if he were Xiao An, he wouldn't be able to kill his third elder sister, Shen Qiu.
"Third sister went overboard with this matter. However, no matter what, Xiao An is still alive while third sister is dead. Our Shen family definitely cannot let this matter rest." Shen Chun said with a gloomy face.
"But, we shouldn't be a match for the Xiao family right?" Shen Dong frowned and asked.
Although Shen Chun was unwilling to admit it, he could not do this kind of thing. He nodded and said, "That's right, therefore, what we need to do now is not to take revenge, but to survive under Xiao Nan's fury. We will wait for our longevity to become a strong person in the future before taking revenge!"
"Then big brother, what should we do?" Shen Xia asked with a grave expression.
"Buy a large number of defensive spirit glyphs and pay a high price to ask an array master to set up a defensive array, fully defending Shen Mansion!"
"Moreover, he will tell Changsheng about this matter and tell him to not return to the Shen family for now in case anything bad happens."
Shen Chun had already carefully considered this before the crowd had arrived. Hence, when he heard Shen Xia's question, he directly said it.
"Alright." The upper echelons of the Shen Clan naturally had no objections. Regardless of how malicious Shen Qiu was, regardless of whether this matter was the Xiao Residence's fault or whether Shen Residence was in the wrong.
?.
Time passed, and soon, several days had passed.
On this day, Xiao Nan sat before the stone table in the courtyard with worry written all over his face.
This was because today was the day that Xiao Ning would return. Although Shen Qiu deserved to die, he was still Xiao Ning's mother. Although Shen Qiu did not die in his hands, Shen Qiu's death was closely tied to him.
Ta ta ta ta!
On the main street in front of the Xiao Residence, a young girl riding an extraordinary spirit stallion arrived at the Xiao Residence's entrance, dressed in luxurious clothing.
The young girl's appearance could only be considered ordinary. She looked ordinary, but she did not have much beauty. However, there was a trace of arrogance between her eyebrows.
"Welcome back, Second Miss."
Outside the Xiao Mansion, the guards' expressions changed when they saw Xiao Ning return. They immediately opened their mouths to speak.
That's right, this young girl was Xiao Ning.
Xiao Ning dismounted and led the spirit stallion towards a guard. He tossed the spirit stallion reins to one of the guards and said arrogantly: "Serve this mount well for me. Without a single hair missing, this lady will beat you up until your mother doesn't recognize you!"
"Yes, Second Miss!"0
The guard was obviously unhappy, but he dared not show it on his face. He held onto the reins and acknowledged the order.
"Wait, what's your name?"
This time, Xiao Ning sensed that something was wrong. He narrowed his eyes and asked the guard coldly with a dangerous glint in his eyes.
