"Zhuang Xiangwan, who do you think you are? How dare you yell at me!" Qu Chiyang reached out and grabbed Xiangwan's neck, his eyes filled with endless hatred. "If I want to spoil you, you should do your duty as a pet. If I don't want to spoil you, what right do you have to question me? You want to be the Zhuang family's dog? Fine, I'll grant your wish."

Qu Chiyang tossed Xiang Wan to Zhuang Aoxue's feet, his eyes never leaving Xiang Wan, but his words were directed at Zhuang Aoxue: "As long as she doesn't die, you can do whatever you want with her."

Zhuang Aoxue had previously been pleased that Qu Chiyang was indifferent to Xiang Wan, but now she felt uneasy. She hadn't revealed that Xiang Wan was sent by her mother to investigate the true nature of the Chiyang Sect. Now that Qu Chiyang had exposed the shady dealings behind it all, didn't that mean he knew everything? Even if she married him, she would still be seen as a temporary measure for the Zhuang family. And what she truly wanted was the person before her.

"Master, isn't this inappropriate? He was someone who served you before. If word gets out, people will say I'm narrow-minded and intolerant. How will I manage the inner quarters then?"

Qu Chiyang snorted coldly and said, "Do what you're supposed to do. You don't need to worry about anything else."

"Is this how it ends?" Xiang Wan's eyes held both pain and disdain. Was Qu Chiyang afraid to act personally because he couldn't bring himself to do it? If that's the case, then let him do it himself and pull out the thorn buried in his heart!

"Hahahaha, hahahaha, the Crimson Sun Sect is nothing more than this! Sect Leader, you personally severed your own weakness, yet you still rely on others. You coward, do you dare swear to heaven that you have never loved me?"

Xiang Wan acted like a madwoman, pressing him relentlessly with every sentence, determined to force Qu Chiyang to reveal his true feelings.

"Are you too scared to do it? Seeing my face, don't you feel reluctant? You're afraid to face me because you're afraid you won't be able to do it, right?"

Everyone respectfully calls you "Master" only because of your superior martial arts skills. Who truly cares for you? Yet, I, a fool, am deceived by your actions and, even at the cost of being covered in wounds, want to prove that you are still a human being.

But just now, I understood. You have no heart at all. You love no one in this world but yourself, and you deserve no love.

"Shut up!"

Qu Chiyang was stung by Xiang Wan's words. In his past life, he longed for it so much but ended up dying without a proper burial. In this life, he is one step ahead, and he will definitely be the final winner. What gives Zhuang Xiang Wan the right to say such a thing?

"I dare to say it, and you dare not listen? Or are you angry because I hit a nerve?"

Xiang Wan, in a fit of despair, vented her frustrations to the fullest.

Qu Chiyang suppressed his anger and grabbed Xiang Wan's collar. Their foreheads were less than two inches apart, and Xiang Wan could clearly see the hatred in his eyes, as well as a trace of barely perceptible pain.

Pain? If he hates her, why not torture her? Why suffer pain? Is he torturing himself as well as he tormenting her?

Xiang Wan smiled, but as she smiled, tears streamed down her face.

"Master, aren't you quite pleased with yourself for manipulating the Zhuang family's son and daughter so easily?"

"You're insane!"

Her collar was loosened, and Xiang Wan fell to the ground, only to see Qu Chiyang with his hands behind his back, his fists clenching and unclenching. Unable to see his expression, Xiang Wan knew he had no intention of stopping her from exposing the Zhuang family's lies.

Now that we've started, there's no reason to stop halfway. Qu Chiyang, since you hate Xiang Wan, then you should hate the Zhuang family and all those who are besieging you!

"Father, do you still acknowledge me as your son?"

"Zhuang Xiangwan, how dare you claim kinship with someone like that? Are you all dead, letting him spout nonsense and slander the reputation of my Zhuang family?"

Shen Meier hurriedly tried to interrupt Xiang Wan, but Qu Chiyang glared at her and she swallowed her words.

After her angry rebuke of Qu Chiyang, Xiang Wan regained her composure. Judging from Qu Chiyang's reaction, it was probably more than just that he had broken her heart.

"Zhuang Batian, you have betrayed my mother Bai Ling. Do you still want your own son to be humiliated here?"

Zhuang Batian was startled. He scrutinized Xiang Wan closely, growing increasingly shocked. His hand trembled slightly, as if he were very excited. Shen Meier reacted quickly, grabbing his wrist and shaking her head to signal him. Zhuang Batian looked at Xiang Wan again, then at Qu Chiyang and the surrounding followers, but ultimately remained silent.

Look, this is the original owner's biological father. To achieve his goal, he didn't hesitate to marry his daughter to his most trusted enemy and sacrifice the son he had always wanted but could never have. An illegitimate child is still a child, but his status and circumstances would bring him great distress, so he simply pretended to be deaf and dumb and remained indifferent, treating Xiang Wan's ramblings as nonsense.

"Zhuang Batian, everyone in the martial arts world respects you, but they don't know that you are the one with wolfish ambitions, plotting to unify the martial arts world and dominate the martial arts realm. In order to deal with the Chiyang Sect, you not only made your own son your male concubine, but you also didn't spare your only daughter!"

And you, Chen Meier, knowing full well that Zhuang Aoxue is my own sister, you still lied to me and said you would marry her to me.

For power, you've turned against even your own family, you're worse than pigs and dogs. If the world falls into your hands in the future, I'd rather kill myself than live under your name—I find it disgusting!

A gust of wind brushed past her ear, and Xiang Wan dodged it by tilting her head. The attack came again, but Xiang Wan caught it in her hand and slapped it back, using her icy energy.

"Zhuang Xiangwan, how dare you hit me?"

Zhuang Aoxue was slapped across the face by Xiang Wan, her headdress fell off, and her cheek turned red and gradually swelled up.

"What is there to be afraid of?"

"I am the leader's wife, how dare you hit me?"

"What is now may not be in the future. Just like me, I used to think it was true, but it isn't anymore."
