Seeing An Dalin's resolute old face, as if he had burned his bridges and was ready to die, An Le felt a pang of pain in his eyes and couldn't help but rub his forehead. "Grandpa, don't worry, it's not what you think, it's not as serious as you imagine."
"Well, about this matter, I—" Anle paused, thought for a moment, got up and ran to An Dalin's ear, whispering something in his ear.
An Dalin's expression changed visibly, and he seemed to have softened considerably.
However, a pair of cloudy old eyes still held a hint of suspicion as he looked at Anle and asked for confirmation.
"Le Wa Zi, are you serious? You're not just trying to comfort this old man?"
"Grandpa, do I look like the kind of person who would lie to you? You've seen my skills before."
An Dalin hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded heavily. "Alright, go ahead. If you don't come back, I'll run to the palace gate and file a complaint with the emperor."
His granddaughter is indeed blessed by the gods; there is no doubt about that.
However, when it comes to matters of life and death, there can be no room for error. If anything goes wrong, one's life may be in danger, especially with a living army outside.
One wrong move and it could be fatal.
Anle grinned, patted An Dalin's old chest, and said with a confident look, "Okay, Grandpa, just you wait and see, I'm off."
Su Mi'er had no idea what An Le and An Dalin whispered to each other. Seeing that An Dalin agreed to let An Le go out, she couldn't help but speak up.
"Father, how can we let Lele go out like this? Lele is still a child. The Tang family will not show her any mercy just because she is a child. We can't let her go out to her death like this."
Didn't you hear what people outside are saying about her? They're calling her a witch. I don't know what the Tang family is thinking, why they have to put Lele to death, but I think it must be related to that Pixiu statue.
Lele is also a victim in this matter, and she is innocent. I can't just watch her go and die.
Xiao Ge is someone close to the emperor, and I think the emperor certainly wouldn't just stand by and watch the Tang family act like this, otherwise wouldn't that be a slap in the face to the royal family?
If it were the emperor, would he simply ignore his subordinates and do nothing about it?
Wouldn't that discourage his followers? The emperor would surely take action, so perhaps we should wait and see.
"Auntie, don't worry, I will definitely come back safe and sound. Since it's because of that Pixiu, I will go and explain the matter of that Pixiu to them properly." An Le smiled innocently, seemingly naive, but the words she spoke were somewhat meaningful and chilling.
He Yusheng, who was in the know, couldn't help but shiver. He felt a chill run down his spine, and his hair stood on end. The coldness seemed to come from the bottom of his heart.
Lele, you're really angry.
Although he had heard how powerful and influential the Tang family was, he felt that the Tang family was really no match for Lele when he thought about Lele's abilities.
He had never seen Lele like this before.
Although she felt a chill in her heart, she couldn't help but be curious and wanted to see how Lele would mess with the Tang family next.
Demolishing the Tang family mansion wasn't the end of it.
What other commotion can they possibly cause?
Thinking about it this way, He Yusheng couldn't help but offer three seconds of sincere silence for the troops outside.
Hopefully, Lele won't make things too bad for me.
Then she found it a little funny. She had actually been a little worried and scared just now, afraid that Lele would be done to by the Tang family. It should be the Tang family who should suffer.
"I... um, how about I go out with you and take a look?" He Yusheng said this with a genuine desire to see the excitement, and An Le could clearly see the gleam in his eyes and his gossip.
He Yusheng knew her capabilities, so there was no need for her to do anything behind his back. If she wanted to come and see for herself, then so be it.
"Let's go then."
Yan Qingxue stood up abruptly. "I'm going too."
Xiaoya bristled at the sound, "Miss, why are you getting involved? Why do you have to be involved in everything?" It's one thing to get involved in other things, but to go and join in on something that's a death trap?
I've never seen such a stupid young lady from their family.
It even comes with a buy-one-get-one-free offer, meaning you get one free for every one that dies?
Who would do something so foolish as to lose money?
Anle tilted her head and stared at Yan Qingxue with a smile. "It's alright, you stay here. I'm just going to sit and have some tea at the Tang family's place."
"I'll definitely be back soon, don't worry."
"How could I possibly feel at ease? What kind of family is the Tang family? Do you think you can get out of there? I never imagined that the Tang family is no different from robbers and bandits, resorting to force and acting so recklessly."
"No, if you go, you might just cause trouble. Don't go. Just stay here. I'm not the kind of person who's not afraid of death. If I say I can come back, I definitely will." The problem is that if Yan Qingxue really goes with her, she won't be able to show her full abilities. Being restricted would really cause trouble for her.
He Yusheng chimed in, "Don't go and cause trouble. Just stay here. Otherwise, after we leave and the army withdraws, you can go to the Bai family and find Young Master Bai."
Although he's not here in person, he must be worried too. Let him know so he doesn't have to worry. Once we're done here, we'll all go back together, and he, as our host, can prepare a proper farewell banquet for us." He Yusheng said this quite casually, but Yan Qingxue felt it had a different tone.
Immediately, tears streamed down her face. "Waaah... what am I going to do? How did things turn out like this?"
Yan Qingxue cried like a child, wiping her snot with her sleeve, her face full of grief. Compared to those beauties who cried pitifully and sobbed, she looked somewhat comical, which made An Le burst out laughing.
"No, beautiful sister, don't cry like you're going to your death with me, okay? I'm really not going to my death. I promise I'll come back alive and kicking."
I wasn't telling He Yusheng this to comfort you.
Yan Qingxue cried loudly and wouldn't listen to An Le's words at all, because she thought she was doomed.
What kind of situation would require thirteen prestigious sects to mobilize their armies for such a large-scale operation?
This was the first time she had ever seen one of the thirteen prestigious families mobilize its army, and it was the top-tier Tang family that had done so.
It's obviously impossible for him to come back alive and kicking.
This child is so naive.
How could they possibly think of returning?
