Sheng Yang sneered.
"You colluded with the Deng family and massacred my entire Sheng family. Do you think I'll still believe you?" The moment he saw the corpses all over the ground, his first thought was whether the Du family had been implicated.
He stumbled to the Du family's house. Fearing being discovered by his enemies, he went through a side door, where he overheard Du Wuwei talking to the man in black, who was the elder of the Deng family.
hiss!
Upon hearing this, the onlookers were shocked. They had only thought that Du Wuwei and his son were fond of beautiful women, but they never expected that the massacre of the Sheng family was also related to the Du family.
They're absolutely beasts!
"I remember that it was the head of the Sheng family who married his cousin to him, which allowed him to establish himself in Tianhe City!"
"I also heard that he was orphaned at a young age, and if it weren't for the Sheng family head, he would have been beaten to death long ago as a rogue cultivator!"
"I never imagined that the massacre of the Sheng family was related to Du Wuwei! He's a wolf in sheep's clothing, a heartless scoundrel!"
Everyone chimed in with their own opinions, noting that the Du family had already aroused public resentment over the past six months.
But they dared not speak out against their anger. Now—the death of Lord Sheng is also related to Du Wuwei.
"Lord Sheng is such a good man! He and his wife are both very kind. A few years ago, when there was a famine, if Lord Sheng hadn't opened the granaries and distributed grain, who knows how many people would have died that year!"
"Shut up, all of you shut up!" Hearing these comments, Du Wuwei shouted and directly suppressed them with his spiritual power.
The old man who had just been speaking was pushed away with a palm strike.
However, before his spiritual power could even reach the old man, *crack!* the whip lashed out.
*Slap!* Du Wuwei received a solid slap across the face.
"Shengyang, I treated you so well back then," Du Wuwei sneered. "You're a heartless bastard! You think you can turn the tide by colluding with outsiders? You're dreaming!"
"Father, save me!"
Blood dripped down Du Ziteng's trouser leg, forming a pool of bright red blood on the ground. Several times he almost fainted from the pain.
Can we please stop talking for now? Let's save him first.
Du Wuwei then remembered his son and leaped forward, but he was blocked by an invisible barrier before he could touch Du Ziteng.
It is an array barrier.
"Sir, are you really going to go against the Du family for the sake of Sheng Yang? Do you know what the consequences are for offending a powerful family!"
It is said that Sheng Yang is not moving.
Du Wuwei, aware of Jun Liuyue's formidable strength, dared not act rashly.
"oh?"
Liu Yue raised an eyebrow slightly.
"As long as you are willing to submit to me, I can decide on the position of deputy city lord."
Du Wuwei said confidently, "As an affiliated city of the Azure Dragon Imperial Capital, countless people covet the position of deputy city lord in Tianhe City."
However... this woman's cultivation is so high, if she were given to an elder, and the elder were pleased, he might even slip a few treasures to her through his fingers, which would be priceless.
“Sure, but I want the position of city lord,” Liu Yue said with a slight smile.
Du Wuwei's face darkened. This little bitch—she's deliberately here to cause trouble!
At this moment, Wu Yan walked over and threw a sack on the ground.
“Waaah—” came the sound of a woman struggling from inside the sack.
Wu Yan opened the sack, revealing Bai's face.
"Cousin?"
Sheng Yang recognized Bai Shi and looked at Liu Yue: "Miss."
He didn't know why the young lady wanted to arrest Bai Shi.
"Husband, save me!" Bai rushed towards Du Wuwei, but was pulled back by Wu Yan with a rope.
"Tell me, what have you done?"
Jun Liuyue looked down at Bai Shi from her high vantage point.
"Say what, what should I say?"
"Tell me how you opened the Sheng family's protective array and let those assassins in," Liu Yue said with a light smile.
"Auntie, is it really you?"
Sheng Yang had long been prepared for the ruthlessness of Du Wuwei and Du Ziteng, but he truly hadn't expected the Bai family to be so vicious.
"No, it wasn't your uncle who did it. The massacre of the Sheng family has nothing to do with your uncle." Seeing Du Wuwei's fierce eyes, Bai quickly said, putting aside all of Du Wuwei's actions towards her over the past six months.
"Whoosh!" Before Bai could finish speaking.
A black pill was flicked into her mouth and rolled down her throat.
"Ugh—what did you feed me!" Bai hurriedly tried to swat her throat with her hand, but nothing came out.
"Tell me, how did you secretly open the Sheng family's defensive array?"
"It was...it was Du Wuwei who made me do it. He said that as long as I helped him and became the city lord, he would no longer care about the women outside. But...I didn't know that would kill my cousin and his wife. I really didn't know."
"It's all my fault, I shouldn't have done that, but... it's too late. I didn't know they would die. Du Wuwei said that he only injured my cousin and that his life wouldn't be in danger. I didn't know, I really didn't know, sob sob sob..."
Bai was in tears. She thought that by doing this, Du Wuwei would abandon all those women outside, and she could become the enviable city lord's wife.
However, Du Wuwei not only didn't tell those women to leave, but also brought them back to his mansion.
"Shut up!" Du Wuwei slapped Bai Shi's body, causing her to spit out a mouthful of blood. Only after the effects of the medicine wore off did she realize what she had said, and her whole body trembled.
No, that's not how it is.
"You shameless woman, what did you say?!"
Du Wuwei wished he could chop the Bai family to pieces.
"Disgusting! How can someone be both stupid and wicked!"
"Not only is he ugly, but he's also disgusting! He has a black heart."
Rotten eggs and cabbage leaves were thrown wildly at Bai.
They completely forgot Du Wuwei's tyranny and only knew that the Sheng couple had died a terrible death.
"Insolence! Insolence! I am the city lord!"
Seeing that things were getting out of control, Du Wuwei also lost control. "Guards, arrest all these troublemakers!"
roar--!
The Taotie appeared behind Jun Liuyue, its blood-red maw wide open, letting out a deafening roar.
It stood like a defensive tower in front of the people.
"This... this divine beast!"
The guards were so frightened that they retreated repeatedly.
"Shengyang, it's your turn." Liuyue leaned back in her armchair, leisurely stroking the little fox: "Let me see what you've accomplished in the past month. Don't disappoint me."
"Um."
Sheng Yang gripped his longsword tightly.
They charged towards Du Wuwei!
A malicious smile played on the girl's lips. "Nice speed. Left side, defense."
With just a few casual words, Sheng Yang quickly adjusted his moves.
The little fox raised its head, feeling extremely displeased. How could that little girl show such an admiring expression towards other men?
good?
The little fox glanced in Sheng Yang's direction; he was no match for him at all.
