There was a faint smile on the corner of the girl's lips, but her eyes were as cold as a thousand-year-old ice.
When those eyes stare at you straight, it's as if they can see right through your heart, and make it all clear to you, no matter how twists and turns there are.
At least that was how Xu Da felt. He swallowed his saliva and said angrily, "Hmph, I don't understand what you're talking about." He took a step to the side, avoiding Shen Qiqi, and looked at Shen Mingyu, "Master Shen, is there no one in charge of the Yuzhou Shen family now? Since you let a young girl who is still wet behind the ears come out and jump around and make trouble."
He said this without showing any mercy to Shen Mingyu. He almost pointed at Shen Mingyu's nose and called him a dead waste.
Shen Mingyu's already ugly complexion became even more gloomy.
He sighed silently, stood up, and was about to speak when Shen Qiqi blocked his way, staring at Xu Da and sneering, "What's wrong with a yellow-haired girl? A yellow-haired girl can still kill the evil spirit in Furong Town. Can you?"
"you!"
"What do you mean by 'me'? Also, my father is mentally unstable right now. As his daughter, isn't it my responsibility to share his worries? Uncle, is it because you have a bunch of unfilial and incompetent children and grandchildren at home that you can't stand seeing others being better than you? Tsk tsk tsk tsk, let me just say you have a very dark heart."
"You!" Xu Da was so angry that his facial features were distorted. He glared at Shen Qiqi, wishing he could slap her to death.
Unfortunately, he can't, doesn't dare, and doesn't have the strength.
His cultivation is not low. He has now entered the Spirit King realm, and is in the late stage. He is only one step away from making the next step.
However, even so, he could not see the profound cultivation of the girl in front of him.
This is terrible!
The pressure released by the other party on him made him feel suffocated and unable to breathe!
Xu Da had a feeling that if he dared to make a move, the girl in front of him would definitely break his neck without any mercy!
Maybe the other party was waiting for him to make the first move, otherwise why would he speak so arrogantly?
After all, no one from their family participated in the exorcism operation in Furong Town, and no one was injured or killed.
But he was the one who jumped the hardest.
reason?
Naturally, he wanted to take the opportunity to pull the Yuzhou Shen family out of the top five families.
Because his son-in-law's family has greatly increased in strength in recent years, if the Shen family is kicked out of the top five families, another person will definitely be needed to fill the gap.
By then, his son-in-law's family will have the hope of becoming one of the top five families.
The status of his son-in-law's family has been improved, and as his father-in-law, he can naturally benefit from it.
Xu Da was just thinking about it when he heard Shen Qiqi say again, "Uncle, why are you silent? Are you secretly angry that I ruined your good fortune? After all, your son-in-law in Binhe is still waiting for you to help him get rid of my Yuzhou Shen family so that he can take over."
"You're talking nonsense!" Xu Da's eyes suddenly widened, looking at Shen Qiqi as if she were a ghost. For a moment, he almost thought he had accidentally shouted out what was in his heart.
Shen Qiqi sneered: "I was just talking nonsense, but looking at your reaction, it seems that what I said was right.
Tsk tsk, I just said it casually, and I actually guessed it right. I said it, no one from your Xu family participated in this exorcism operation, and no one was injured or killed. Why is Sect Leader Xu so angry? It turns out you have other intentions.
It really is true that there is no gain without pain, Sect Master Xu. It seems that Sect Master Xu is not as upright and noble as he appears to be."
Everyone present was not a fool to be able to sit in the position of the head of the family. When Shen Qiqi said this, everyone immediately reacted.
Especially the person who first questioned Shen Mingyu, he thought about it carefully and realized that it was because Xu Da had been privately persuading him to ask the Shen family for an explanation, so he suddenly took action and became the first to speak out.
Originally, he planned to ask Shen Mingyu for an explanation in private.
Unexpectedly, I became a tool in the hands of others.
When the man realized what was happening, he became furious and glared at Xu Da fiercely.
Others who realized that they were being used by Xu Da also looked at Xu Da with unfriendly eyes.
Of course, this is only a part of the people. There are still some people who still insist on asking the Shen family to give an explanation.
But no one dared to suggest kicking the Yuzhou Shen family out of the list of the five major families.
With Xu Da's heroic example in front of us, who would dare to step forward like this?
Otherwise, he has ulterior motives.
Anyway, it is a fact that the daughter of the Shen family in Yuzhou stabbed someone in the back. Now that the fact has been exposed, even if they stop pressing them, the Shen family must give them an explanation.
As the head of the five great families, the Jiang family could no longer openly show favoritism.
So, they don't need to say anything more now, just wait for the results.
The originally noisy hall suddenly became quiet. No matter whether people had ideas or not, they all stared at Jiang Guiyuan with burning eyes.
The "川" mark between Jiang Guiyuan's eyebrows is so deep that if filled with water, it can drown a nest of ants.
Personally, Shen Qiqi saved his son's life and could be said to be the savior of the entire Jiang family.
In public, Shen Qiqi not only made great contributions in the exorcism of evil spirits in Furong Town, but just now, she also burned to death a large number of evil spirits with her own strength, which is another great achievement.
Even if her sister Shen Ning'er made a mistake, the two great achievements she had made were enough to offset it.
What's more, there is no reason for the whole family to be punished for the mistake of one person.
Thinking of this, Jiang Guiyuan stood up, glanced at everyone with a serious look, and said: "What happened to Miss Shen was her fault alone..."
"Sect Master Jiang."
Jiang Guiyuan had barely begun to speak when Shen Qiqi stepped forward, respectfully bowed to him as a junior, and then said, "Sect Master Jiang, since my sister's surname is Shen, then our Shen family must acknowledge the mistakes she made, so let's do what needs to be done."
Jiang Guiyuan frowned and wanted to say something else, but Shen Qiqi had already turned around and looked at everyone again, saying loudly: "Don't worry, everyone, we, the Shen family, will never evade the responsibilities that we should bear."
Everyone was stunned, as if they didn't expect her to dare to say this. After looking at each other, one of the victims questioned: "Second Miss Shen, do you think what you said counts?"
After asking this question, the man looked at Shen Mingyu.
The others also looked at Shen Mingyu.
The current head of the Yuzhou Shen family is Shen Mingyu, not her, Shen Qiqi.
Ever since Shen Mingyu came to this hall, he has been silent, as if he had lost the ability to speak.
Only then did he stand up. He didn't look at anyone else, but only fixed his gaze on Shen Qiqi. He stared at her for a long time before he said, "My daughter's words are my intentions."
