"The immortal version of Chen Shimei." Chen Xiao listened to the voice coming from the front and sighed softly.
"Who is Chen Shimei?" Xi Yunting protected him, standing beside him, and his voice clearly reached his ears.
Chen Xiao briefly told Xi Yunting about the widely circulated version of the Chopping of the Beauty Case, and then he said: "Although it's just a drama, there are many characters in reality who abandon their wives for fame and fortune. If Huang Yanxue hadn't been smart and asked Senior Hua Baisui to uphold justice, she would have gone alone to seek justice from Shi Changbin, and I'm afraid she would have ended up with a more miserable ending."
Chen Xiao was not the only one who thought so, many discerning people also felt so.
If Huang Yanxue did not have Hua Baisui's support, how could the Yue family tolerate her standing at the gate of their house and speaking harshly to Yue Hanyu, let alone making a scene in public.
Whether it is a human or a cultivator, they will instinctively protect themselves first. Even if the Yue family is disgusted with Shi Changbin's actions, after considering Yue Hanyu's feelings, they will immediately choose to eliminate Huang Yanxue as an unfavorable factor.
All Yue Fanye can pray for now is to minimize the damage to the Yue family and Yue Hanyu.
Yue Hanyu's crying was useless, Yue Fanye said humbly: "No matter what, Changbin made the mistake first, this is irrefutable. Whether you want to kill him or beat him, can you two move to the hall to talk?"
Huang Yanxue could not suppress her anger. She said, "No, right here! Let's make it clear in front of everyone. I was stupid before. I actually believed you and took your family's dignity into consideration. But what happened? Shi Changbin actually ran away with your connivance! It took me several days to catch him back!"
Yue Fanye smiled bitterly and said, "Master Huang has misunderstood. My Yue family is trustworthy. Since we have said that we will discuss a result, we will not let anyone escape. Changbin must have been too worried about something, so he was confused for a moment and tried every possible way to escape."
Hua Baisui said coldly, "Without the connivance of your Yue family, how could Shi Changbin, whose true essence was restricted, escape from the prison where he was imprisoned. Moreover, when I caught him, I found this on him." Hua Baisui raised his hand, holding a small jacket-like item between his fingers. "I heard that the Lushui Yue family has a treasure called the Jade Fairy Clothes, which is a top-level protective magic weapon. I wonder if this is it?"
Yue Fanye looked at the small jacket in Hua Baisui's hand in a daze, and suddenly recalled the distracted look on his daughter Yue Hanyu's face when he was discussing a solution with his son and his vassals.
He turned his head and stared at Yue Hanyu, who was weak and kneeling on the ground in grief, asking in disbelief: "For such a thing, you actually stole the magic weapon in your home and gave it to him! Don't you know how important the Jade Fairy Clothes is to the Yue family?!"
Being harshly questioned by her father, Yue Hanyu, who was exhausted both physically and mentally, looked up and said, "Father, I just want to find a way out for Changbin! Besides, Changbin is the son-in-law of the Yue family and a true member of the Yue family. When danger comes, it is understandable that my daughter uses the Jade Fairy Clothes!"
Girls are really outgoing! The more I get angry, the more my hands start to tremble.
He bowed deeply to Hua Baisui and said, "It is my fault that I failed to discipline my daughter. I would like to apologize to Senior Hua."
He had originally thought of spending some money to keep Shi Changbin as his son-in-law, but now he no longer had that idea. It was better to solve the root cause of this mess as soon as possible.
Hua Baisui waved her hand and said, "Since you don't know about it, I won't mind the Yue family's negligence." After that, she turned her wrist and the jacket disappeared from her fingertips.
Yue Fanye felt a sudden pain in his heart and hurriedly said, "Senior Hua, the Jade Fairy Clothes is a family heirloom of my Yue family. My unfilial daughter lent it to Shi Changbin. Can you please...can you please return it to its original owner?"
Hua Baisui looked at him with a half-smile: "We'll talk about your family's problems later."
Yue Fanye sighed inwardly, now he was under control.
He winked at Yue Guanyun, who went over and helped Yue Hanyu up.
Yue Hanyu originally wanted to ask her brother for help, but Yue Guanyun pressed on her and she became speechless.
Seeing that the Yue family stopped talking, Hua Baisui woke up the unconscious Shi Changbin at his feet.
After figuring out the situation, Shi Changbin begged for mercy again. He first begged Hua Baisui, but seeing that Hua Baisui was unmoved, he went to beg Huang Yanxue.
But no matter how much he cried and confessed, Huang Yanxue just sneered.
"If you had told me that you had such great ambitions and asked for a divorce directly, I would still respect you as a man. But you just didn't want to bear the stigma of being ungrateful and unfaithful, and you were afraid that I would pester you later, so you killed me regardless of our years of friendship. You are repenting and suffering now, but it's just because you are afraid of death. If you had a trace of sincerity, why didn't you leave me any chance to live!"
Huang Yanxue looked down and saw that there were no less than a thousand people gathered around the City Lord's Mansion to watch the fun, and more people were daring to come from afar.
She felt a surge of pleasure in her heart, and said with hatred: "As glorious as you were when you married Yue Hanyu, I will let the world see how miserable you are now!"
"Senior Hua, please make the decision for me." Huang Yanxue bowed deeply to Hua Baisui.
Hua Baisui nodded decisively, grabbed Shi Changbin, and said, "Shi Changbin killed his wife for the sake of his future, which is unworthy of the world. Killing someone means paying with one's life, which is only natural! Let's end the previous grudges and the subsequent grudges!"
Hua Baisui did not torture anyone, but ended Shi Changbin's life very simply.
When Shi Changbin died and was left by Hua Baisui in front of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, Huang Yanxue and Yue Hanyu both burst into tears.
Huang Yanxue howled softly, but Yue Hanyu couldn't cry at all. Her brother supported her and said to her, "Hold on, think about your son!"
Hua Baisui said: "The feud between you two ends here. Afterwards, the Yue family is not allowed to disturb Huang Yanxue. Yue Fanye, I understand that Yue Hanyu is also a victim, so I tolerated her many offenses. Don't refuse my toast and drink the wine for punishment!"
Yue Fanye and the Yue family members behind him were all suppressed by Hua Baisui's aura. Yue Fanye could not muster the heart to resist. "I dare not! Senior, rest assured, I will discipline my daughter well."
Hua Baisui said "hmm" with satisfaction and threw out the jade fairy robe. Yue Fanye hurried to catch it. When he looked up again, Hua Baisui and Huang Yanxue were gone.
Yue Fanye then breathed a sigh of relief and asked people to disperse the crowd of onlookers and collect Shi Changbin's body.
No matter how corrupt Shi Changbin's character is, he is still Yue Hanyu's husband and the father of his grandson. He cannot be left to lie dead in the wilderness.
It was like watching a big play, and people left with a sense of unfulfilled desire.
After this incident, the prestige of the Yue family in Green Water City was greatly reduced, and they had to keep a low profile for at least ten years.
This is also a good thing in disguise for outsiders who come here to explore the Broken Star Sand. At the very least, local forces will not interfere.
"Huang Yanxue is so decisive. She didn't even hesitate and asked Senior Hua Baisui to kill Shi Changbin." Tang Ru sighed, "Unlike those weak female cultivators, who softened their hearts when a man begged for mercy and easily forgave the other party's mistakes."
Tong Nuonuo said: "Shi Changbin wanted to kill her, she was lucky to survive. If you can forgive such a person, you are too weak and immature. It's better for her to be an ordinary woman. Cultivating immortals requires great willpower and is not suitable for her."
"It's better to suffer a short pain than a long one. Yue Fanye's final choice was to give up Shi Changbin, otherwise Yue Hanyu would have been implicated." Chen Ziyi, who arrived later, said, "Although Shi Changbin is dead, Yue Hanyu still has a chance to overcome his inner demons and succeed in cultivating immortals. But if he were still alive, even if the Yue family could get rid of Huang Yanxue, Yue Hanyu would still have a knot in his heart, which would affect his cultivation in the future."
Listening to them discussing this matter from the perspective of immortal cultivators, Chen Xiao felt it was very novel. The completely different arguments showed a completely different set of concepts and views from his previous life.
There is no such thing as attempted murder here, and the criminals will not be sentenced to suspended death penalty, nor will they be required to pay attention to human rights.
The strong prey on the weak, and the world of immortal cultivation follows the most realistic and simple principle of strength above all else.
The Lushui Yue family had their son-in-law killed at their doorstep, and they could only bow to the oppression of a powerful person in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, and they didn't even dare to think of revenge afterwards.
Chen Ziyi led them to walk along the main street for a while, then turned into another street, and walked for a while before arriving at the inn he had booked.
"After three days of traveling, everyone is tired. Have a good rest tonight and meet at my place tomorrow to discuss what to do next," said Chen Ziyi.
After each of them recognized the door of their room, they dispersed.
Even if I'm not very tired, the dust on my body is unbearable and I have to wash it off.
The upper room is very spacious, with a small suite in the bedroom which contains the toilet and washing area.
Green Water City is relatively backward, and the facilities in the small suites are not so advanced. There is no automatic hot water and automatic cleaning washbasin. There are only simple clothes hangers, washstands and a large bathtub.
After the waiter brought a full bucket of hot water, Chen Xiao simply pulled Xi Yunting together and took a rather erotic bath together.
After finishing, Chen Xiao hugged Xi Yunting and enjoyed the afterglow, while Xi Yunting cleaned him gently.
After hesitating for a while and almost provoking the other person again, Chen Xiao, who wanted to go to bed early, escaped from the bathtub.
Full of joy and smile, Chen Xiao walked out of the small suite wearing a white middle coat.
Seeing a sudden appearance of a person in the room, Chen Xiao's face suddenly froze, and the heat in his body instantly turned cold in fear.
Hua Baisui sat at the table, propping up her chin with one hand and covering her ears with the other. Seeing the terrified Chen Xiao, she smiled sheepishly: "I just got here not long ago, I didn't hear anything."
Who would believe you? Chen Xiao was completely devastated, but he still had to hold on and not lose his composure.
He said stiffly, "Senior, you are visiting me so late at night. I wonder why you are here?"
Hua Baisui looked around erratically and said, "Actually, I have something to ask Master Chen. It's my fault for being too impatient and not choosing the right time."
At this time, Xi Yunting had already come out dressed neatly. He said to Chen Xiao, "I'll entertain you here. Go change your clothes first."
Chen Xiao then quickly rushed into the small suite, took out clothes from the storage box and put them on.
It seems that I still need to set up the golden thread cover in the future, otherwise it will be too unsafe!
