"Shut up! He's your second brother's savior. If it weren't for him, your second brother would have almost died. It was I who personally fed him this top-grade elixir and pulled him back from the brink of death."
Han Xue's mind was filled with the image of Han Ye disliking her and Shao Qian because of an outsider. Every time her elder brother came with his Taoist partner, her father would greet them with a smile, but every time she and Shao Qian came, her father would find fault with them in various ways. All the resentment that had been pent up in her heart came out.
"Dad, you actually scolded me for an outsider. You've never been mean to me since we were little. What kind of magic potion did this guy feed you to make you protect him so much? Besides, you usually give those precious spiritual medicines to my second brother. A while ago, Shao Qian was seriously injured and needed Ziyang Yuzhi, but you refused to give it to him? He is also your son-in-law, right?"
"Besides, Second Brother takes a lot of spiritual medicine on a daily basis, so how could he be in trouble? Maybe it's because of the effect of those spiritual medicines that Second Brother is getting better. This guy just took advantage of it. How dare you trust an outsider so easily? If Second Brother takes so many precious spiritual medicines and still has no effect, wouldn't it be a waste..."
"Pa--" A loud slap came, and Han Ye looked at her with a strange look. He could never have imagined that this daughter whom he loved most since childhood, who was so clever and quirky when she was young, became so strange when she grew up?
The island owner's wife also looked disappointed. "Xue Xin, he is your second brother. Why do you say that? It really makes me sad!"
A red mark suddenly appeared on Han Xuexin's fair cheek, and she looked at Leng Qingning with even more resentment.
It’s all this bitch’s fault. She didn’t like this pretty boy from the first moment she saw him.
Leng Qingning glanced at her calmly, unconcerned with her hysterical, resentful expression. She had become accustomed to Yan Lingxi's vicious gaze and had become immune to it.
Some people are like this. Even if you didn't provoke them, they like to target you for no reason. She is not the one who is wrong, so there is no need for her to swallow her anger.
"Mrs. Chen seems to be very hostile to me. I don't think I have ever provoked you?" Leng Qingning pouted pretending to be aggrieved. Of course, she wanted to add fuel to the fire at this time.
Sure enough, Han Xuexin was completely enraged by her, "You bitch, I'm going to kill you!——"
Leng Qingning deliberately jumped up and down, running around Han Ye, and occasionally made provocative looks at Han Xuexin. She didn't want to suffer in vain. "Ahhhhhh! I'm so scared, Master Island Master, your little daughter is so fierce, she wants to kill me, your mansion is really too dangerous, I think I should leave!"
"You are such a bastard. You always blame us for spoiling you, but you actually say such nonsense. This is your second brother's savior, and the man lying on the bed is your own second brother! The second brother who doted on you the most since you were a child, how could you say such things?" Han Ye looked at her with disappointment.
"Dad, let's just forget about this. I didn't mean it. Hurry up and apologize to you, Dad and Mom!" The one who tried to stop the fight was the man who looked somewhat similar to Han Ye. He must be the eldest son of the island. The petite woman standing on him must be his wife.
"I can't let this matter go. It's because I didn't pursue her many past mistakes that she became so lawless!"
In the crowd, a black spiritual needle silently pierced the neck of the thin man on the bed. Everyone was immersed in the tense atmosphere and did not notice it.
The island owner's wife was wiping her tears. When Han Ye, immersed in a mixture of sadness and disappointment, came to his senses, it was too late. His pupils suddenly trembled and he rushed to the bed with despair on his face.
"No—Yu'er—"
At this moment, a ghostly figure appeared as fast as lightning. A slender, snow-white jade hand quickly picked up the spiritual needle with two fingers and controlled it in the palm of its hand, and stopped the island owner who was about to pounce on Han Xianyu.
Han Ye got up with an embarrassed look on his face.
Leng Qingning didn't notice his embarrassment and said anxiously, "What a despicable method! Master Island Master, quickly set up the barrier! The murderer who poisoned the Second Young Master is among the crowd!"
When Han Ye heard Leng Qingning's words, he pressed the edge of the bed without hesitation. The entire room was instantly wrapped in a barrier, and not even a fly could fly out.
"It's really thanks to my little brother for his help just now, otherwise, my Yu'er would probably fall into the trap of that villain again!" At this point, how could Han Ye not see that Yu'er's experience was deliberately caused by someone behind the scenes?
Those trapped in the house were all relatives close to Han Ye, including several pairs of his children and their Taoist partners, as well as two pairs of his nephews and nieces.
Puzzlement filled Han Xianye's watery eyes. He asked in a youthful voice, "Dad, what just happened?"
The eldest brother, Han Xianbei, angrily shouted, "How dare someone assassinate Ayu? Dad has always treated you well. Who is this ungrateful fellow who did this? If I catch him, I won't let him off!"
"Master Island Master, why did you suddenly set up the barrier? Wouldn't it be detrimental to Ayu's recovery if so many of us were crowded here?"
"Someone just tried to use this thing to assassinate Yu'er." Han Ye held the silver needle in his hand. The needle was extremely thin, and there was a wisp of black evil energy lingering on it. If you didn't look closely, you could hardly see it.
If they were ordinary cultivators, a mere trace of evil energy would not be able to hurt them, but Han Xianyu was different. He was extremely weak, and a trace of evil energy could take his life.
Han Xianbei was immediately furious. "This person is so vicious! He wants to kill my second brother!"
The petite woman beside him glanced at Chen Shaoqian and said, "We are all family here. Who else could it be besides that outsider?"
Hearing what she said about outsiders, the entire island lord's mansion subconsciously looked at Chen Shaoqian. Chen Shaoqian said with disappointment: "It seems that everyone still has a misunderstanding about me. Father-in-law, in order to prove my innocence, I voluntarily allow everyone to search me."
"Ying'er, stop talking nonsense." Before Han Xianbei could finish her words, Han Xuexin suddenly rushed forward and slapped her hard.
Ye Ying screamed, and her delicate cheeks suddenly became red and swollen.
"Han Xuexin, are you crazy? Why did you hit me?"
Han Xuexin looked at her sinisterly and said, "You bitch, how dare you slander Shao Qian like this? Beating you is not enough." After that, she continued to punch and kick Ye Ying and pulled her hair.
How could Ye Ying just take a beating obediently? She raised her hand and slapped her hard in the face.
"Han Xuexin, you're blind, don't assume everyone else is blind. I have no obligation to pamper you!"
