While Wuyou was in seclusion, enduring endless suffering, Lvming's life was equally difficult, even more so than Wuyou's.
Although she was a servant in the Le family, Le Zhengpeng took care of her and Le Wuyou doted on her. She almost never suffered any grievances and was practically the invisible eldest daughter of the Le family.
Although Bai Xuejiao had some reservations about this, feeling it was against the rules, she could only turn a blind eye because her daughter and husband were very tolerant of Lü Ming.
This emboldened Green Tea to become increasingly arrogant and domineering, enjoying all the conveniences provided by Le Wuyou while secretly undermining Le Wuyou by spreading negative rumors.
Unexpectedly, things took an unexpected turn, with Le Wuyou seemingly escaping her control all at once, catching everyone off guard.
Because Wuyou had previously instructed the people in the Punishment Hall to take good care of Lüming. The special care from the Punishment Hall was not a privilege that ordinary people could afford. Therefore, since Lüming's dantian was completely destroyed, there was probably no chance of recovery whatsoever.
Unless she can become Ye Fan's woman again, just like in her previous life, and Ye Fan recovers his Golden Core cultivation, she will have no chance to cultivate again and start anew.
Although Wuyou knew that according to her memories from her previous life, Lvming would definitely be involved with Ye Fan, such a cancer was not suitable to stay in the Le family, and it was better to get rid of her as soon as possible.
Moreover, being able to make Green Tea suffer more would naturally make Le Wuyou happy, since if the enemy is uncomfortable, he will be comfortable.
Of course, Wuyou didn't understand this strange psychology; it was just her intuition that told her it should be this way. Although she didn't know why this made Wuyou happy, it didn't matter to her.
In the desolate back mountain, a group of burly men arrived in a grand procession, each dragging a person along their arm. They lifted only the legs of the people being dragged, completely disregarding their suffering and ignoring the pain on their faces.
They're nothing but a bunch of traitors, not worth pitying at all, which is why they acted with even less restraint.
They threw the man on the ground like trash, and the burly men spat in disdain. These people were truly ungrateful; they didn't appreciate their good fortune. They were living a life of luxury by the young lady's side, but instead they had to cause trouble for this lackey. They deserved this fate.
"Serves them right—those who betray their masters deserve to die—" As servants of the Yue family, they had long been branded with the Yue family's mark. To have such thoughts was utterly rebellious, and they deserved to be torn to pieces.
Although such a concept is too cruel and rigid, this is how these ancient families train their subordinates, as it is the only way to consolidate and solidify their position and rule. In comparison, someone like Lü Ming, who is "unconventional," stands out. Before, with Le Wuyou protecting him and Le Zhengpeng safeguarding him, naturally no one dared to speak against him. But now, things are completely different.
Faced with the insults from the burly men, Lvming and the others dared not speak out. They could only close their eyes tightly. Some gritted their teeth and endured it, while others did not even dare to utter a word and could only silently bear it.
Unfortunately, at this moment they still haven't realized that without the protection and nurturing of the Le family, they are utterly worthless, and everything that was once something to be proud of is so cheap.
Green Tea and the others, dressed in tattered, blood-stained clothes, lay sprawled on the ground like dead dogs, their former glory vanishing like flowing water.
The burly men vented their frustrations here, and finally left triumphantly, all the pent-up resentment they had suffered in the past swept away, and they were able to eat more when they got back.
After the burly men left, Green Tea and the others dared not move. They looked at themselves and then at the others, their eyes filled with regret, but out of pride, they did not say it aloud.
They did nothing wrong; they were simply pursuing their own freedom and overthrowing the old feudal rule. Those people were inherently servile, but they were not. They were unwilling to be the Le family's dogs for the rest of their lives, living without any dignity.
Among this group of people, Green Tea was the most seriously injured and the most filled with hatred. The resentment and hatred in her eyes were almost tangible. Sensing the regret of those around her and their subtle blame towards her, she flashed her eyes and forced a slight smile at everyone despite her pain.
"Don't worry, we will definitely be able to carve out our own territory. When that happens, we will make the Le family regret everything they have done to us, overthrow their feudal traditions, and make them suffer what we are suffering today."
Although these people have lost their martial arts skills, they are still people trained by the Le family for many years. They all have some skills and must be doing well in the outside world. As long as she can control these people, she will have no worries about finding a way out. The Le family will definitely be hers.
"Yes, we must take revenge—" Green Tea's words were like a fuse, instantly igniting everyone's passion. They seemed to already see the Le family trampled under their feet, and they instantly perked up.
Wuyou was unaware of everything that happened in the back mountain. She had been taught since childhood that the strong should be respected, and in her eyes, Lvming was nothing to fear, just an insignificant nobody.
Her current goal is to bring down Le Zhengpeng, that's right, to bring down Le Zhengpeng. She doesn't understand any complicated things and does things in a very simple and brutal way.
Among Le Wuyou's wishes is to take revenge on his hypocritical and ruthless father, Le Zhengpeng. In Wuyou's mind, the head of a family cares a lot about the power he holds, and losing power is the best punishment for him.
Back then, the head of the Tang family, despite his advanced age, was still reluctant to relinquish power. He insisted that she concoct longevity pills for him and constantly nagged in her ear about his unfilial children and grandchildren and how he was always thinking about her position. She was so tired of hearing it.
Although no one was there to guide Wuyou, she was still very intelligent. From the Tang family head's words and actions, she could see into his heart: his reluctance to relinquish power and his fear of death and aging. At this moment, Wuyou, with her powerful talent for alchemy, undoubtedly became the last straw.
Especially when Ye Fan came knocking on their door, the fact that the other party handed themselves over without hesitation speaks volumes about the importance of power. So important that old age and death become insignificant.
It should be noted that Wuyou's elixirs have always been the life-saving charm for Patriarch Tang. He has lived for over a hundred years, and besides his own strength, it is mostly because Wuyou has been conditioning his body that he is able to have such a strong voice.
This shows just how important power is to those in positions of authority.
