"What?!"
Xiang Wanwan was struck by lightning as soon as these words came out. She looked at her father in disbelief, "Dad, you were wrong just now, weren't you? You clearly said, it's..."
"I've made up my mind!"
Xiang Wenli stopped Xiang Wanwan in one gulp, reached out and touched the storage ring on his ring finger. After a flash of inspiration, a pill bottle appeared in his palm.
"I see you're pale and thin, and this elixir has a warm nature, making it perfect for conditioning your body."
Xiang Wenli pressed the pill bottle into Xiang Sheng's hand. His tone was gentle, yet it revealed his unquestionable intention: "Go find Miss Qinji right now and set off for the Chiyan Sect. There must be no mistakes. Do you understand?"
Xiang Sheng took the pill bottle with a confused look on his face.
Xiang Wenli grew impatient when he saw her dithering like this. He frowned and said in a cold voice, "Let me ask you, do you understand?"
Xiang Sheng shuddered with fear, his face pale. He quickly clenched the pill bottle and nodded, saying, "I understand. I'll go right away!"
After saying this, she left the study in a hurry without even looking at Wanwan.
“Daddy!!”
As soon as Xiang Sheng stepped out of the room, he heard Xiang Wanwan's roar from inside the room. At this moment, there was no panic on her face, only smile in her eyes.
Although Xiang Wanwan is somewhat scheming, she is still too young.
She curled her lips silently and left Xiang Sheng leisurely.
In the study, Xiang Wanwan stamped her feet in frustration, "Dad, didn't you agree to send me to Brother Hongyu? How could you suddenly change your mind? Let that bitch..."
"Xiang Wanwan!"
Xiang Wenli raised his voice and scolded her harshly, "Even if Xiang Sheng is a concubine's daughter, she is still your biological sister. How can you speak so disrespectfully and commit such treasonous acts?"
“Daddy…?”
Xiang Wanwan widened her eyes, angry and confused.
She didn't understand what happened to her father all of a sudden. Not only did he change his mind at the last minute, but he also scolded her to protect a lowly concubine's daughter.
"Wan'er, Daddy is doing this for your own good."
Xiang Wenli took a deep breath, and his gloomy face quickly faded, replaced by a helpless and kind look.
"After all, an attendant is a slave, of low status. Furthermore, I've specifically sent people to inquire about the fierce internal struggles within the Blazing Flame Sect. Even if your brother protects you, your life will be in danger if you're not careful. How can a father bear to let you go?"
Hearing this, Xiang Wanwan's doubts were somewhat relieved, but she still felt aggrieved. "Daddy, why didn't you tell me in advance?"
"I just got the news, and you're already bringing people here?"
Xiang Wenli looked helpless, "Fortunately, your sister Sheng didn't have any ideas. She let her go immediately to avoid any more trouble."
"But my daughter is already fourteen years old."
Xiang Wanwan looked dejected. "In two years, I'm afraid even the smaller sects won't look down on my daughter."
"Wan'er, what are you talking about?"
Xiang Wenli's face straightened, "How could Daddy bear to see you become a mortal? Don't worry, Daddy will definitely send you into the sect within two years. You will become a formal disciple and embark on the path of cultivation!"
Xiang Wanwan's eyes lit up when she heard this, "Daddy, are you serious?"
Xiang Wenli raised his head and laughed heartily, "When has your father ever lied to you? After learning that the Blazing Flame Sect was failing, I started contacting other sects. I had been thinking of telling you later, but I didn't expect you to have such a bad temper."
After hearing this, Xiang Wanwan finally felt relieved and submissively admitted her mistake, saying, "I was impulsive. From now on, I will obey you in everything."
"Good boy."
After comforting Xiang Wanwan, Xiang Wenli watched her leave. His smile suddenly disappeared and anger rose in his eyes.
"Head of the family."
The housekeeper quietly appeared nearby, took a look at Xiang Wenli's expression, and tentatively said, "...The Wan family has produced a prodigy, and his actions have become increasingly reckless in recent years."
Bang!
Xiang Wenli slammed the table and gritted his teeth, "I've been patient enough, but I never thought they would try to win over Hongyu and destroy my Xiang family's hopes. This is simply too much!"
"Master, could it be that you made a mistake?"
The housekeeper carefully comforted her, "Miss Wanwan has been close to you since she was a child. Perhaps this time she is just thinking about her own future and not thinking too much."
"There's no mistake!"
Xiang Wenli flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly, "That girl Sheng'er is so dull-witted, what could she possibly know? It's probably because Wan'er constantly brings up her mother's family, using her power to bully these illegitimate children. What does this prove? It proves that deep down she despises this family!"
The housekeeper was speechless. "Then... then, Master, what should we do now?"
"Hehe...my Xiang family has declined, and now we can't compare to the Wan family."
Xiang Wenli sneered, "But Hongyu may not be worse than Wan Lingmo in the future. Hongyu and I are not close, but he was born in the Xiang family, so he is a member of the Xiang family. Trying to pull him into the Wan family's camp is impossible!"
Xiang Wenli paced back and forth for a moment, then stopped and said, "Immediately send a team of elite soldiers to follow Qin Ji. You will lead the team yourself. I want to send Xiang Sheng to the Chiyan Sect before the Wan family can react and put an end to their hopes."
"yes!"
…
Elsewhere, Xiang Wanwan returned to her own courtyard and quickly instructed her personal maid, "Send someone to find Wangchun immediately and deal with her secretly according to the old method. Do you understand?"
Her father has already promised to send her to the sect for training, so there must be no unnecessary complications during this period.
My father loves me, but he also attaches great importance to family harmony. If he knew that I was suspected of murdering my siblings, it would be difficult for him to keep his promise.
"Miss, don't worry."
The maid smiled and said, "I've already gone to inquire about this. Miss Wangchun was accused by Miss Sheng of embezzling the elixir and abusing her master. He was killed by Miss Qin with a single sword strike."
