When the people of Guyue City woke up, they were dumbfounded. The Dongdan Family Inn, a symbol of power in the city, had become a ruin.

What's even more unbelievable is that Dong Danwenhao is actually dead!

That was the young master of the Dongdan family, the future successor, and he actually died in their Guyue City!

The scene was cleaned up even more thoroughly than if it had been washed with water, leaving no trace of spiritual energy or aura.

But Dongdan Shuiyue was unwilling (and had no choice but to accept it; if she did not give any explanation for Dongdan Wenhao's death, even though she was a direct descendant, her clan would not let her go), so she led Dongdan Motong and a dozen subordinates to turn the inn ruins upside down.

“Miss, we’ve found this.” Dongdan Motong handed a fragment of a token to Dongdan Shuiyue.

Dong Dan Shuiyue took it and examined it closely. On one corner of the fragment, half of the character "溪" was clearly engraved.

Dong Dan Shuiyue's eyes were filled with doubt as she asked, "Zhou Zhixi is nothing but a good-for-nothing. How could she possibly kill my elder brother?"

Zhou Mingxuan, who was standing at the front of the crowd watching the commotion, was filled with anger upon hearing this, but hesitated to speak.

If he were to argue with Dongdan Shuiyue at this moment and defend his sister, it would be tantamount to admitting that it was their Zhou family who killed Dongdan Wenhao.

There are priorities, but Dong Danwenhao is the one who will die. We must not get involved in this mess!

Zhou Mingxuan wanted to avoid suspicion, but Dongdan Shuiyue had no intention of letting him off the hook. She turned around and held up Zhou Zhixi's token, asking, "Zhou Mingxuan, this thing ended up next to my elder brother. Shouldn't you give me and our Dongdan family a reasonable explanation?"

“Most of the people in Guyue City know that my sister and Bai Yubin’s group went to the Monster Forest to find evening primroses as a birthday gift for my uncle, and they haven’t returned yet. The identity token is not something that cannot be copied. Could it be that someone is trying to frame us and sow discord between our two families? Miss Shuiyue, don’t fall for their tricks and become a laughing stock,” Zhou Mingxuan said calmly.

But it's obvious to anyone with eyes that he's gloating over someone's misfortune.

Even if Zhou Mingxuan hadn't said anything, Dongdan Shuiyue really did have such concerns.

Seeing Zhou Mingxuan's "it's none of my business" attitude, Dongdan Shuiyue felt that he was trying to cover up his true intentions.

“Very few, Zhou Mingxuan. I will report what happened here to the clan truthfully.” Dongdan Shuiyue put away the token fragments and left with her people.

Zhou Mingxuan scoffed and said in a low voice, "What does it have to do with me whether you report the truth or not? Tch, you're sick!"

In the crowd.

Ji Fengyao, Bai Yusheng, and Bai Yusu, all dressed in brand new clothes, watched a dog-eat-dog show and were in high spirits.

Especially Bai Yusheng and Bai Yusu, who suffered greatly at the hands of Zhou Mingxuan, wished they could fight on the spot.

"It's a pity that the more powerful the family, the more cowardly they are. They didn't even start fighting," Bai Yusu muttered regretfully.

Ji Fengyao smiled and gave them a "go" look.

Once they were out of the crowded area, Ji Fengyao transmitted her thoughts telepathically, saying, "If they don't fight, why don't we fight for them? You're from the Bai family, do you know when Zhou Mingxuan will send the things back to Yanjing?"

“Miss…!” Bai Yusu instantly understood, her eyes shining brightly.

"It is said that next month is the birthday of Zhou Mingxuan's uncle, Zhou Boqing. Zhou Boqing is the manager of the Zhou family in Yanjing. The job that Zhou Mingxuan and his sister have in Guyue City was arranged by Zhou Boqing. Zhou Mingxuan will definitely send things back in the next day or two to continue to curry favor with Zhou Boqing," Bai Yusheng said.
