-------------------------------------

Wang Lingjiao asked in surprise, "Is it over?"

Madam Yu snorted, "Otherwise what?"

Wang Lingjiao said, "That's it?"

Madam Yu raised her eyebrows and said, "What do you mean 'just like that'? What kind of magical weapon do you think Zidian is? He's been beaten like this, he won't be well next month, he'll suffer!"

Wang Lingjiao said, "But there are still good times!"

Jiang Cheng roared, "What else do you want?!"

Wang Lingjiao playfully scolded, "Madam Yu, since it's a punishment, then of course he should remember this lesson for the rest of his life, regret it for the rest of his life, and never dare to do it again. If he only gets a beating and then recovers for a while and is back to his old self, what kind of punishment is that? Boys this age are most likely to forget the pain once the wound heals, so it has no effect at all."

Madam Yu said, "What do you intend to do? Cut off his legs so he can no longer jump around?"

Wang Lingjiao said, "Young Master Wen is kind and generous; he wouldn't do something as cruel as cutting off both of his legs. If we just cut off his right hand, he will stop caring about it from then on."

This woman is simply using Wen Chao as a shield, relying on his backing to avenge the time Wei Wuxian struck her with a palm in the cave at Muxi Mountain!

Everyone: ...!!!

Wang Lingjiao, I'm going to fight you to the death!

You've been whipped by Zidian for so long, and you still want to cut off your right hand?!

The person in the space rubbed their back and glared angrily at Wang Lingjiao in the shadows.

Meanwhile, Wei Wuxian felt Lan Wangji gripping his right wrist tighter and tighter, the knuckles turning slightly white.

Knowing that Lan Wangji would be upset to see this, he did not struggle.

However, if they continued to hold hands like that, his hand wouldn't be severed by Madam Yu, but rather by Lan Zhan's squeezing.

Madam Yu glanced at Wei Wuxian sideways and said, "Should we cut off his right hand?"

Wang Lingjiao said, "That's right."

Yu Ziyuan stood up and slowly walked around Wei Wuxian, seemingly considering the idea. Wei Wuxian was in so much pain he couldn't even lift his head. Jiang Cheng broke free from Jinzhu and Yinzhu, knelt down with a thud, and shielded Wei Wuxian, saying, "Mother, Mother, please don't... things aren't like she said at all..."

Wang Lingjiao raised her voice and said, "Young Master Jiang, are you talking about me, Du Yi?"

Wei Wuxian lay sprawled on the ground, unable to even roll over. He thought, "Du Yi? What's Du Yi?" Suddenly, it dawned on him: "It means fabricated! This woman was originally Wen Chao's wife's maid. She's illiterate and knows very few characters, yet she insists on pretending to be cultured, using unfamiliar words, feigning knowledge, and mispronouncing words!" The situation was clearly critical, but it was precisely at times like these that one's mind became increasingly chaotic, unable to concentrate, and filled with endless wild thoughts. Wei Wuxian, realizing this, found it quite amusing. Wang Lingjiao, completely unaware of her embarrassment, said, "Madam Yu, please think carefully. Our Qishan Wen Clan will definitely pursue this matter. Cut off his hand and let me take it back. That will provide an explanation, and the Yunmeng Jiang Clan will be alright. Otherwise, next time Young Master Wen inquires, it won't be so simple!"

A chilling glint flashed in Madam Yu's eyes as she said in a sinister voice, "Jinzhu, Yinzhu, go and close the door. Don't let anyone see the blood."

Whenever Madam Yu gave an order, the two girls, Jin and Yin, obeyed without question, saying "Yes!" in unison, and then firmly closed the hall doors.

Wei Wuxian heard the door close and the light on the floor disappear. A wave of fear washed over him: "Are they really going to cut off one of my hands?"

Jiang Cheng was terrified and grabbed his mother's leg, saying, "Mother? Mother! What are you doing? Please don't cut off his hand!"

After the initial fear subsided, Wei Wuxian gritted his teeth, hardened his heart, and thought, "...Fine! If it can bring peace to my family... one hand it is, damn it, I'll just practice left-handed swordsmanship from now on!!!"

Hearing Wang Lingjiao shout "Du Yi" loudly without knowing anything, a group of people laughed mockingly. It wasn't until they saw the cold light in Madam Yu's eyes that many of them realized that what they were yelling about was the harm Wei Wuxian had already suffered. At that time, he was in danger of losing his right hand innocently for something that wasn't his fault.

Even Jiang Yanli, who was watching the scene from within the space, was terrified. She looked left at her mother and right at Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng, and her eyes reddened slightly again.

She never imagined that the reason for that day would be so ridiculous. She never imagined that Wei Wuxian, who was always proud of his swordsmanship, would be willing to lose his right hand to help the Jiang family. She also never imagined that her mother at that time would actually harbor such great hatred for Wei Wuxian.

Although her mother harbored a sliver of hope that the Wen family would spare Lotus Pier, she could not hide the hatred Yu Ziyuan felt for her.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned.

Regardless of whether Wei Wuxian sacrifices himself or not, he cannot save Lotus Pier.

Wang Lingjiao clapped her hands and said, "Madam Yu, I knew you must be the most loyal subordinate of the Wen family of Qishan! Guards, hold this boy down!"

Madam Yu said, "You don't need to do it." The two maids, Jin and Yin, walked over, and Wang Lingjiao said, "Oh, do you want your two maids to hold him down? That's fine too."

Jiang Cheng said, "Mother! Mother, please listen to me! I beg you! Don't cut off his hand! What if Father finds out..."

He was fine until he mentioned Jiang Fengmian, at which point Madam Yu's expression changed drastically, and she shouted, "Don't mention your father to me! What can he do if he finds out? Kill me?!"

Wang Lingjiao said happily, "Madam Yu, I really admire you! It seems we'll get along very well in the Supervisory Office in the future!"

Madam Yu pulled back the leg that Jiang Cheng was holding and the hem of her purple skirt, turned around, and raised an eyebrow, saying, "The Supervisory Office?"

Wang Lingjiao smiled and said, "Yes, the Supervisory Office. This is the second important matter I have come to Yunmeng for. The newly issued Supervisory Order of the Qishan Wen Clan stipulates that a Supervisory Office shall be established in every city. I hereby announce that from now on, Lotus Pier will be the Wen Clan's Supervisory Office in Yunmeng."

No wonder she was going in and out of Lotus Pier just now, treating it as her own mansion. It turns out she really has made Lotus Pier her base in Yunmeng!

Jiang Cheng, his eyes red, exclaimed, "What Supervisory Office?! This is my home!!!"

Wang Lingjiao frowned and said, "Madam Yu, you must teach your son a lesson. For hundreds of years, all families have submitted to the Wen family. How could he speak of our family and your family in front of the Wen family's envoys? Originally, I was hesitant. Lotus Pier is so old and has produced several traitors. Could he shoulder the heavy responsibility of the Supervisory Office? But seeing how obedient you are to my orders, and that your temperament suits my taste, I have decided to grant you this honor..."

Before she could finish speaking, Madam Yu slapped her hard across the face.

The slap was deafening in both force and sound. Wang Lingjiao was sent spinning several times before falling to the ground, blood streaming from her nose, her beautiful eyes wide open.

The Jiang family brothers: ...!!! What the hell?!

The sixth junior brother spat, "They want to use Lotus Pier as the Supervisory Office? Does the Wen family even deserve it?!"

The Jiang family members were all filled with righteous indignation, wishing they could drag Wang Lingjiao's soul out and whip it repeatedly. When they saw Yu Ziyuan's hard slap, they couldn't help but applaud and cheer.

Most of the people in this space had experienced the Sunshot Campaign and were moved by the emotions of the Jiang family.

In contrast, Lan Wangji felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over his heart.

If Wang Lingjiao hadn't revealed her initial intention to turn Lotus Pier into the Surveillance Bureau, then Wei Ying's hand...

Is it still possible to save it?

Several Wen family disciples in the hall drew their swords at once. Madam Yu waved her hand, and a dazzling purple light flew out, causing a group of people to collapse.

Madam Yu walked gracefully to Wang Lingjiao's side, looking down at her. Suddenly, she bent down, grabbed Wang Lingjiao's hair, lifted her up, and delivered another furious slap: "How dare you, you lowly servant!"

She had been holding back for a long time, and now, with a ferocious expression and so close at hand, Wang Lingjiao screamed in terror, half her face swollen. Madam Yu slapped her again without hesitation, silencing her piercing scream abruptly, and shouted, "Even when beating a dog, you have to consider its owner! You barged into my house, right in front of me, to punish my family? What kind of creature dares to act so wildly!"

After she finished speaking, she threw Wang Lingjiao's head away forcefully. As if disgusted by the dirt, she pulled out a handkerchief and wiped her hands. Jinzhu and Yinzhu stood behind her, their faces bearing the same contemptuous smiles. Wang Lingjiao covered her face with trembling hands, tears streaming down her face, and said, "You...you dare to do such a thing...the Wen family of Qishan and the Wang family of Yingchuan will not let you off!"

Madam Yu threw the handkerchief on the ground, kicked her over, and cursed, "Shut up! You lowly servant! The Yu family of Meishan has been a prestigious family for centuries, dominating the immortal path. We've never heard of the Wang family of Yingchuan! What lowly family crawled out of some backwater? Are all of you like this? You dare to talk about hierarchy in front of me? I'll teach you what hierarchy is! I am superior, you are inferior!"

Jiang Cheng had already helped Wei Wuxian, who was lying on the ground, to his feet. Both of them were stunned by this scene.

The group of people in the space were also stunned.

I subconsciously touched my face.

It really is a purple spider.

It looks painful.

However, the Jiang family felt only pleasure when they saw Wang Lingjiao's swollen face.
