In the evening, Han's legitimate daughter Xue Yun'er returned home from the academy.

She was studying at Qingyang College, a famous aristocratic college in Kyoto. Since it was an aristocratic college, the admission threshold was naturally very high. Only those with outstanding family backgrounds could apply, and if one's talent was lower than the fifth rank, he would not be admitted.

Xue Yun'er is a famous talented girl in Kyoto. She has a second-grade martial arts talent, one grade higher than her brother Xue Cheng from the same mother. She caused a sensation when she entered school. In just two years, her cultivation has broken through to the eighth level of body refining.

In addition to teaching common subjects such as music, chess, calligraphy, painting, horse riding, archery, etc., the academy also offers courses in martial arts training.

The students enrolled are between twelve and eighteen years old, which is somewhat similar to modern high schools. After graduating from the college, they can choose to go to higher and more professional colleges or schools to continue their studies.

Xue Yun'er usually studies in college during the day and goes home after school in the evening.

After returning, the first thing she did was to wash herself and change into casual clothes. While changing, she casually asked as usual, "Did anything happen in the mansion today?"

She thought the maid would tell her some ordinary trivial matters as usual, but this time, she was shocked as soon as the maid opened her mouth.

"Miss, the eldest daughter born to the lady in front is back today."

"What? Xue Huan? Shouldn't she—" Xue Yun'er stopped talking mid-sentence and asked anxiously, "Why is she back?"

Shouldn’t Xue Huan be dead?

The maid told the whole series of events that happened today.

Xue Yun'er was shocked one after another. Her brother, who was born to the same mother, was burned and disfigured by Xue Huan, her mother was slapped by Xue Huan, and even her grandmother was humiliated by Xue Huan...

Each and every one of these things shocked and angered her.

He didn't even have time to eat dinner and went to the main courtyard immediately.

Han was about to send someone to invite her daughter over, but when she saw her daughter coming, she immediately pulled her into the house and said, "Yun'er, look at what your brother has become because of that little bitch Xue Huan!"

Xue Yun'er looked towards Xue Cheng and let out a low cry of fear. The burns on Xue Cheng's face were really shocking.

To be honest, Xue Yun'er did not have deep feelings for her younger brother Xue Cheng. As they were both born of a legitimate wife, although she was more talented than Xue Cheng, she was far less favored than Xue Cheng at home just because she was a girl.

Whenever there was any conflict between her and Xue Cheng, she would always be asked to give in.

And every time Xue Cheng won, he would show off in front of her, which was really annoying.

But after all, they are biological siblings from the same father and mother, and their relationship is much closer than those born out of wedlock, so seeing Xue Cheng like this, Xue Yun'er felt uncomfortable too.

"Mom, have you applied medicine to my brother?"

Han said, "Why not? I went to your aunt, the Queen, to get some Jade Cream and applied it to Cheng'er. Unfortunately, there's only a little left, not enough for a few uses. I wonder if you can ask His Majesty for another box."

Xue Yun'er had naturally heard of the name of Yurong Cream. She knew that this ointment was extremely expensive and priceless. She had also used it once from the Queen's aunt, and it was indeed very useful.

Too bad it was never used again after that time.

This time Xue Cheng used it because of the burns on his face.

"Xue Huan caused her brother to become like this, didn't grandma and father punish her?" Xue Yun'er asked.

Speaking of this, Han was filled with hatred and said harshly, "Your grandmother originally wanted to send her to the family temple and dissolve her engagement with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince—"

Hearing this, Xue Yun'er's eyes lit up and she couldn't wait to ask, "Then what?"

Xue Yun'er admired her cousin the prince very much. Ever since she first fell in love, she had fantasized about marrying him, becoming his wife, and ruling the world with him in the future.

As the queen's niece, she has been close to the prince since she was a child. She has regarded the prince as her own possession and feels that only she is worthy of the prince. She has also long regarded herself as the future princess in her heart.

She thought this way not only because she felt that she was talented and beautiful, but also because the queen always wanted to pair her with the prince, as if she had already regarded her as her future daughter-in-law.

However, one day, Xue Yun'er learned that the prince was already engaged. This news was like a bolt from the blue to her.

Who is the person who is engaged to the prince?

After finding out that the person was Xue Huan, her half-sister, Xue Yun'er regarded Xue Huan as a thorn in her side and wanted to get rid of her as soon as possible.

And she did take action.

She thought that Xue Huan should have died in the remote town of Pengcheng by now.

Who knew she would come back so suddenly, and cause so many troubles as soon as she came back!

Han: "—And then that little bitch actually said she didn't even want to be engaged to the Crown Prince. He wasn't worthy of her, and if she wanted to cancel it, she should do it herself."

Xue Yun'er was so angry that her face twisted. "What? She really said that? How could the Crown Prince be unworthy of her! This barbarian who grew up in the countryside, a lowly bastard, what right does she have to say that the Crown Prince is unworthy of her! I'm going to tear her face off!"

There is some truth to the saying that like mother, like daughter.

In front of others, Xue Yun'er could still pretend to be cold, proud, dignified and generous, but in private, she completely inherited Han's vicious and mean character.

In her heart, the prince was an untouchable existence. When she heard Xue Huan dare to say that about the prince, the disguise on her face could no longer be maintained, and she cursed him even more harshly than Han.

She went as she said she would. Han wanted to stop her, but then she thought about it. She was an eighth-level body refinement warrior. Even if Xue Huan was no longer a loser and had some strength, what would it matter? She would definitely not be Yun'er's opponent.

This time Yun'er goes there, it's just the right time to teach that little bitch a lesson and avenge herself and Cheng'er!

Thinking of this, Han couldn't wait to see her daughter teaching Xue Huan a lesson.

She quickly caught up with Xue Yun'er and finished what she had just said. Xue Yun'er became even angrier after hearing this, sneering repeatedly: "What a Xue Huan! Does she really think she's a celestial being? How dare she be so arrogant! How presumptuous!"

He had already made up his mind that he would first teach Xue Huan a lesson, and then pretend to "accidentally" kill her!

This way, the prince won’t have to marry her!

Even if the news gets out in the future, she will have an explanation. Xue Huan actually dared to slap her stepmother. She will definitely be at a disadvantage in public opinion and will be criticized to pieces!

Even if she died then, no one would have the slightest sympathy for her.

Xue Yun'er had a good idea, but unfortunately reality did not go as she thought.

Arriving at Wutong Garden, Xue Yun'er kicked open the gate and saw Xue Huan eating in the yard.

When the loud noise was heard, Xue Huan turned around and saw the person's aggressive attitude, and knew that he was not a good person.

She hated being disturbed while she was eating, so she waved her hand and cast a barrier to keep Xue Yun'er and Han out.

He greeted the frightened mute girl and continued eating.
