Shangguan Mansion…
Although Shangguan Xixiong was a little confused, he became the other party's subordinate in a daze, and there was no other way to go on.
They can only hope that the other party is of real level, otherwise they will be doomed.
"Make arrangements to welcome the distinguished guests."
Shangguan Xixiong still does his etiquette work meticulously.
And Hua Wujue didn't make any other excessive demands.
Shangguan Yuyu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that his father and Hua Wujue were fine.
"Why is father...suddenly obeying the words of a stranger?" Shangguan Yuyu's eldest brother was a little worried.
Shangguan Xixiong has always been a man of measure, it is impossible for him to hit their third sister in a rage like that just now.
There must be something very important involved.
Unfortunately, even if they thought it was strange, they would never have thought that their father was secretly practicing an extremely evil technique.
They would never have thought that their father actually had a history of murder and treasure-stealing.
These are secondary.
Because their father is just the beginning of this situation, there is a lot of water inside.
Many people think they are the masters of this game, but they are not.
The real master of this game is very hidden.
"Why bother with him so much? If father is being threatened and controlled, we can just kill him!" The second son of the Shangguan family was obviously much more reckless, big and strong, and it was obvious that he was not very smart.
"Yujie, you must never have such thoughts again, don't even show them to me!" Young Master Shangguan warned sternly.
"You have to remember, if your father is threatened or controlled, do you think we can deal with such an existence?"
The second son of the Shangguan family was obviously at a loss for words, and at the same time seemed a little unconvinced:
"But... we can't just watch Dad being controlled by threats, right?"
"What's there to be afraid of? I'm not afraid of death!"
"You are stupid!" The eldest son of the Shangguan family was very angry.
"Remember this, if the family has this strength, they can wipe us out in an instant. Now nothing else has happened, which means that the other party still has no hostility towards our family."
"If you harm your father or put the family in danger, I will see how you will atone for your sins."
The eldest son of the Shangguan family said this half intimidatingly and half explaining.
When Second Master Shangguan heard this, he immediately shrank his neck like a chicken:
"Good brother, I'm not like that. Alas, it really bothers me to see him like this. I don't know how strong this guy is. He looks so weak. I always feel like my father has been deceived."
"Get out of here!" Young Master Shangguan was so angry that his face turned red.
It seems that this guy didn't listen to anything I said just now.
Soon the Shangguan family prepared a grand banquet.
"It must have hurt you, ah." Shangguan Xixiong took the opportunity to look at the bright red palm prints on his daughter's face, and couldn't help feeling distressed.
"Dad, I'm fine. Nothing happened between you and Enxiao, right?" Shangguan Yuyu shook his head.
She did not hold a grudge against Shangguan Xixiong for that slap.
My father has always been a steady man. He said that things happen for a reason, and he must have had to do so for some reason.
"It's okay. You're a very capable person. Dad admires you very much." Shangguan Xiaoxiong's eyes were filled with emotion.
Although he was planted with the slave mark, his thinking and way of doing things were not affected in essence.
Or Hua Wujue, she would only ask him to do something when she needed it.
Normally, Shangguan Xixiong acted as if he had never been attacked.
He even felt that he had been enslaved and had been stuck in this state for a long time, but there were signs of loosening.
This made him feel worried and surprised.
The surprise was of course due to the relaxation of cultivation.
The worry is that if what Hua Wujue said is true, then he has been practicing this evil skill for so many years, and it is very likely that he has been practicing it for others.
And he said that the slaves before him were also planted by the Chinese people.
But he was clearly planted by Shan Hou.
Something might happen here that would make him feel cold just thinking about it.
This matter was so terrible that he didn't even think about it.
Hua Wujue didn't know how to eat the dishes Shangguan Xixiong prepared for him.
He just ate a few bites symbolically, then went to the quiet pavilion behind the tree and looked through the books in his family.
This banquet eventually became the Shangguan family's own family banquet.
Shangguan Xiaoxiong was a little uneasy, thinking that he was neglecting the other party.
However, Hua Wujue was pretentious: "I just like quietness. Please leave. I will call you when I need you."
"yes."
When Shangguan Xixiong was about to leave, a sound like a loud bell suddenly came from outside the door.
"The Li family of Shicheng is here to cancel the engagement."
The sound was so loud that almost all the residents and merchants on the streets near Shangguan's house could hear it.
Shangguan Xixiong was stunned for a moment, then immediately became gloomy, with anger in his eyes.
The other party acted like this, not to mention the matter of breaking off the engagement, just the usual behavior showed that the other party came for humiliation.
"Damn it, what a bastard!"
Shangguan Xixiong cursed in his heart.
When he and the Li family had arranged this marriage, both heads of the family agreed.
But now the other party came to cancel the engagement, what kind of thing is this? !
Moreover, at this critical moment concerning the survival and prosperity of their Shangguan family, being treated like this is no less than a stab in the heart.
This means that not only will their retreat be limited, but there may even be another threat coming their way.
"Master, the eldest son of the Li family came in. They...they are here to cancel the engagement!"
The Shangguan family was in a hurry and came to Shangguan Xiong in a panic.
"I know."
Shangguan Xixiong had a cold face and said nothing, and he was about to walk away.
"Wait a moment."
Shangguan Xixiong stopped in doubt, waiting for Hua Wujue to speak with some curiosity and awe.
"I will go with you."
Hua Wujue said lightly, he gently placed the book in his book on the stone table in front of him, then stood up.
The midday light slanted downward, penetrating through the stone pavilion's canopy to stain a strand of his hair, and the soft light shone on his face, contrasting with his angular features.
He is calm and silent, like a true god.
And God has always been unpredictable.
