Zhuang Yue'e is a strong woman.

Not only is she beautiful, but her cultivation level is also among the top in this Great Wilderness City.

But when God opens a window for you, He may very well close another one when you return home.

That's what you call... being a jerk!

Many years ago, Zhuang Yue'e's husband, the former head of the Qin family, was killed by a powerful enemy while he was away.

original.

The position of head of the Qin family is not a place for a woman, after all, her husband and brothers are still alive.

How could the Qin family, with its vast wealth and power, agree to hand it over to someone from another family?

However.

As the saying goes, "The weather is unpredictable, and fortune can change in an instant."

That enemy was too powerful; they actually tracked us down to the Qin family!

That night.

The Qin family home was covered in blood.

Blood formed streams that flowed through the streets, making even the sleeping people seem to smell the unbearable stench of blood.

The next morning, Zhuang Yue'e woke up peacefully and went out of her room as usual.

As far as the eye could see, everything was blood-red; the entire Qin family compound had become a living hell!

But why is she completely unharmed?

Then she was shocked to discover that, apart from her daughter Qin Xiaoxiao, all the direct descendants of the Qin family, regardless of age or gender, had died tragically.

Some had their heads severed, others had their legs chopped off; the various forms of death were too gruesome to bear.

Who is the other party?

She would never have believed such a tragic death if she hadn't had a grudge against the Qin family.

So here's the question.

Zhuang Yue'e has been married into the Qin family for countless years and is already a member of the Qin family. Why didn't that ruthless enemy touch her or her daughter Qin Xiaoxiao?

She just couldn't understand it.

But what can you do if you can't figure it out?

Life still goes on.

The family meeting that morning.

The elders of the Qin family seemed to have reached a consensus, unanimously recommending her as the head of the Qin family. They even said that once Qin Xiaoxiao had the strength, Zhuang Yue'e would pass the position of head of the family to her.

after all.

Only Qin Xiaoxiao is most qualified to assume the position of clan leader.

no way.

Zhuang Yue'e had no choice but to agree, so she took on this heavy responsibility. Over the years, she devoted herself to the Qin family and shouldered the responsibility for the family's survival.

"When Xiaoxiao was seven years old, the sect leader of the Heavenly Fire Sect was a close friend of my husband. The two hit it off and brought Zhu Xufeng and Xiaoxiao together, thus setting up a marriage contract."

"Alas, the Qin family is getting weaker and weaker now, and the Heavenly Fire Sect even has the potential to unify the Eastern Wilderness. This marriage contract really makes me anxious."

now.

Inside the Qin family's main hall, Zhuang Yue'e was filled with complex emotions. She looked expectantly at the richly dressed old man, whose name was Qingwei, an elder of the Heavenly Fire Sect.

She really wanted to know.

What exactly is the purpose of the Heavenly Fire Sect's visit to the Qin family today?

"Your nephew, Zhu Xufeng, greets your aunt."

At this moment.

A group of people walked in from outside the reception hall. The young man at the head of the group was dressed in black and had very handsome features.

His every move exuded an indescribable charm and elegance; in a crowd, he would undoubtedly be a wealthy young master with a natural air of nobility.

Zhu Xufeng bowed slightly, cupped his hands in front of his chest, and then looked up at Zhuang Yue'e.

"So it's Feng'er. It's been so many years. Your progress in cultivation has truly surprised your aunt."

Zhuang Yue'e said with a smile, then waved for Zhu Xufeng to take a seat.

Zhu Xufeng is only twenty years old, but his cultivation level has already reached the mid-Nascent Soul stage.

This is two whole levels higher than his own daughter, Qin Xiaoxiao.

That's right.

Because Qin Xiaoxiao's cultivation aptitude is poor, she is currently still hovering at the Qi Refining level. Since she has been like this since childhood, Zhuang Yue'e no longer forces her to continue.

"Auntie is too kind. If I were placed in a crowd, I would just be an ordinary person."

Zhu Xufeng took his seat with a smile, appearing neither humble nor arrogant.

"Brother Zhu!"

When she saw the person she liked appear before her, Qin Xiaoxiao nodded in acknowledgment, her admiration evident in her eyes.

Zhu Xufeng nodded, his face showing little expression.

“Auntie, this is a top-grade immortal stone. I’ve come to give it to you.”

Zhu Xufeng stood up again and took out a golden stone from his storage bag.

When the stone appeared in his palm, many elders of the Qin family immediately stood up with rapid breathing, their eyes fixed on the top-grade immortal stone.

Zhuang Yue'e's pupils suddenly widened, and she muttered to herself, "Top-grade immortal stones are rare treasures of the ancient moon star. The spiritual energy within them is boundless and immense. Even cultivators at the Mahayana realm would regard them as precious treasures."

"Feng'er, could it be that you're being foolish, unaware of the value of this item, and therefore acted without your father's permission?"

This Zhu Xufeng is the young master of the Heavenly Fire Sect, and his father is the sect master of the Heavenly Fire Sect. It's okay for a child to act recklessly, but how can someone as experienced as her act recklessly along with him?

The value of this single top-grade immortal stone is enough to equal the harvest of the Qin family from thousands of spirit mines over three years!

"That's not right. Brother Zhu rarely comes to my house. Why is he bringing such a big gift today..."

Qin Xiaoxiao was only seventeen years old, but she was very perceptive and immediately noticed that something about today's events was puzzling.

Zhu Xufeng said, "It's not as you say, Aunt. It's just that I sincerely want to give you this gift. But... there is one thing I hope you can agree to."
