"Stop hitting me! Stop hitting me!"
As Lu Yunsheng approached the Chu family mansion, the hoarse cries of a woman and the sound of heavy sticks suddenly came into her ears.
The housekeeper of the mansion stepped forward to stop Lu Yunsheng, "I have something going on at home, so I can't receive guests. Please visit another day."
Another day? Lu Yunsheng came here to find out whether Song Benben's death was related to the Chu family, and to find out where Song Benben's body was. He couldn't leave easily.
She said sternly, "I am Zhu Sheng, a disciple of Huo Xuan Sect. My junior brother died tragically, his soul was separated, and his body is missing. I just want to see Chu Si Sheng. If he has a clear conscience, I will leave immediately!"
"Master Sheng? But Master Sheng..."
The butler hesitated to speak.
Suddenly, a powerful voice came from inside: "Let her in."
Lu Yunsheng was stunned when he heard this.
This is not an ordinary sound, but a voice transmitted through the air!
The housekeeper immediately bowed to her and said, "My master wants to see you."
Lu Yunsheng uttered a "hmm", entered the door, climbed the stairs, and walked along a gravel road. A strong smell of blood hit his nose.
At first glance, at the door of the villa, a bodyguard in a black suit was holding a black stick and beating a person tied to a bench.
“Ah—ah—!”
The man on the stool was beaten and screamed in pain.
Two bodyguards nearby grabbed a woman who was wearing luxurious clothes but had tear-stained eye makeup. The woman struggled and cried, "Feng Ming, this is your son! Stop beating him! Tell them to stop beating him!"
"Please Feng Ming, we only have this one child. Are you going to beat him to death?"
“Wuwuwu…Si Sheng…Si Sheng…Mom is useless…Mom can’t protect you…Wuwuwuwu…”
Lu Yunsheng suddenly stopped in her tracks. Only then did she recognize that the pale-faced man on the stool was Chu Sisheng!
Not far away, Mrs. Chu, the main wife of the Chu family, was sitting with her legs crossed, stroking a cat in her arms leisurely.
Behind Mrs. Chu stood a man and a woman in their early twenties who looked very similar. They were Mrs. Chu’s twin children, Chu Jinxuan and Chu Yueqing.
Chu Yueqing looked at the illegitimate child of the mistress who was beaten beyond recognition, and gloated: "Why didn't he learn from his mother? He even stole from his father."
"Don't talk too much, just listen to your dad."
Mrs. Chu spoke in a low voice, and Chu Yueqing immediately fell silent.
As for the head of the Chu family and the president of the Chamber of Commerce, Chu Fengming, he was sitting next to them at this moment.
He was about forty-five or forty-six years old, dressed in a cotton gown with an elegant literary style, and sitting upright on a finely crafted tiger-head chair.
His strong and rough fingers were stroking a string of Buddhist beads, and he had a pair of silver glasses in front of his eyes, with white light occasionally shining through the lenses.
Chu Fengming seemed indifferent to his son who was beaten to a bloody mess and his lover who was crying and begging for mercy not far away.
He glanced at Lu Yunsheng who followed the housekeeper in with a faint look in his eyes, and narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Are you the new disciple of Huoxuan Sect that was recruited in Beijing this time?"
Huo Xuan Sect had never had a female disciple, so when Chu Fengming saw the Taoist robe on Lu Yunsheng, he knew her identity.
Lu Yunsheng had been watching Chu Sisheng being beaten for some time. After hearing what Chu Fengming said, he pulled back his thoughts and said calmly, "Mr. Chu is right. I did just join the Huoxuan Sect today. My Dharma name is Zhusheng."
As soon as she finished speaking, Chu Sixing's mother suddenly rushed towards Lu Yunsheng, "So it was you! You bitch, you stole my son's place! It's you who caused my son to be beaten like this, I will fight you!"
Chu Sisheng's mother had a ferocious look on her face and wanted to pounce on Lu Yunsheng. Before Lu Yunsheng could make a move, she fell to the ground again with an anesthetic needle in her calf.
The person who administered the anesthetic needle was Chu Fengming's personal bodyguard.
Chu Fengming sat calmly on the sofa, still showing no sympathy for his old lover lying on the ground.
He said in a deep voice: "Si Sheng has been curious about Xuanmen since he was a child. I did not stop him from signing up. However, he stole the Qilin ring and even tried to kill people during the entrance examination. I only learned about this from the Fu Beast today."
"Fortunately, nothing serious has happened. Chu Fengming didn't teach his son well. Today, I will punish Si Sheng according to the family rules as an explanation to my junior nephew Zhu Sheng!"
Every word of the clear and melodious voice fell into Lu Yunsheng's ears.
Lu Yunsheng froze, "Nephew?"
Madam Chu explained, "My husband was the chief disciple of Huo Xuan Sect 20 years ago. If he hadn't given up Xuan Sect to go into business, your master wouldn't have been the elder of Huo Xuan Sect!"
So that's how it is... No wonder the Chu family can have connections with the grandmaster of Xuanmen and can privately raise top-level talisman beasts. This means that Chu Fengming is Qi Han's senior brother!
I heard screams again:
“Ah! Ah!”
Chu Sisheng was still being beaten when the heavy solid stick fell again, knocking him unconscious.
The bodyguard came forward with a bloody stick and reported: "Master, the young master has fainted."
Chu Yueqing teased not far away: "The agreed thirty strokes of the cane haven't been completed yet, why is he pretending to be unconscious? A bucket of water will wake him up."
The bodyguard was obviously embarrassed after hearing what the young lady said and looked at Chu Fengming hesitantly.
Chu Fengming closed his eyes, turned the Buddhist beads in his hand, and said in a flat tone: "Continue."
"……yes!"
Not long after that, "Shua——", a bucket of ice water was poured on Chu Sisheng.
Chu Sisheng, who had fainted on the stool, was awakened by the pain and begged for mercy in a trembling voice: "Dad... Dad... I won't dare to do it again next time..."
This time, Chu Fengming didn't even open his eyelids.
Immediately afterwards, the sound of sticks rang out again, accompanied by Chu Sisheng's increasingly weak screams...
Lu Yunsheng broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this.
This is the treatment of illegitimate children. She can see that every blow hits the flesh and it is not a waste at all.
