Chapter 37: Just Act, Don’t Take It Seriously
The girl put away her sword, turned around and smiled generously at all the guests present.
"How are you all?"
"My name is Nguyen Wei, and Nguyen Danzhi is my elder brother." Nguyen Wei was never shy. "I came home today to watch my brother ascend the throne, but I heard Nguyen Ha's ridiculous remarks."
"I have a few words to say in response to Ruan He's accusations against my brother. I hope all the immortals will listen."
She was really generous. Ruan Ruanzhi also put away his sword and bowed to the people below the stage.
They were both so impressive, and the woman's voice was soft and unhurried as she told the story.
This makes Nguyen Ha's original behavior of bringing Nguyen Trang to justice in a hurry, when the cause and effect were not clear, seem very suspicious.
One big drama after another.
No one doesn't like watching a play.
What's more, the girl looked so charming. When a beauty invited them, there was no reason for many monks to refuse.
The monks below the stage said:
"I'm listening, I'm listening, fairy, please speak!"
"She actually addressed the Ruan family head by his name. Could the rumors be true? Did Ruan He really plot to take the position of head of the family from his brother?"
"I have to say, she's really pretty. By the way, does anyone recognize that sword move just now? She's only at the foundation-building stage, yet she was able to force even the Ruan family's Patriarch to hide."
Discussions gradually arose.
Ruan He yelled, "Ruan Wei! What are you talking about? The evil aura on Ruan Hongzhi can't deceive anyone."
After hearing what he said, some people felt that it made sense.
Ruan Zhong also shouted, "You are just a little girl, what nonsense are you talking about here? Get out of here!"
"You little girl without a father or a mother, I'll marry you sooner or later!"
He has never looked down on Ruan Wei. So what if she has an innate spiritual body? She is still just a little girl with water spiritual roots.
When he becomes the head of the family, he will marry this girl off to a place far away where she won't be a nuisance to him.
Knowing that Ruan Zhong was a fool, Ruan Wei ignored him.
In Ruan Wei's opinion, Ruan Zhong is not as vicious as Ruan He.
Her third uncle was a fool. At worst, he only wanted to marry her off and never thought of killing her.
Ruan He wanted to capture her and take her for sexual intercourse.
"call out--"
A stone flew through the air.
“Ouch!”
The person who attacked had great force, and the stone hit Ruan Zhong right between the eyebrows!
With just one blow, he was hit on the head and it was bleeding. Ruan Zhong covered his forehead and screamed. The female cultivator beside him immediately supported him.
Ruan Zhong was furious, "Who?! Who dares to attack me——"
Ruan He was really annoyed by his embarrassment, so he raised his hand to signal his servants to cover Ruan Zhong's mouth and half-pushed and half-forced him to move away.
Ruan He couldn't tell who had attacked. He suspected that Penglai might have been accompanied by a teacher, and that seeing Ruan Zhong's rude words, he took action to teach him a lesson.
It seems inappropriate to force it.
Ruan Wei also immediately looked over.
The stone seemed to come from nowhere, and from its angle and position, it was impossible to find a rough candidate.
I can’t guess who it is, so let’s put it aside for now.
"What nonsense?"
Ruan Wei was not afraid of him and sneered, "Ruan He, do you dare to show me what you have in your hand?"
Upon hearing this, Ruan He immediately threw the thing over.
"You can test it! I have a clear conscience!"
He looked very casual, as if he was sure that there was no problem with his magic weapon.
This guy has so many ways to do evil.
Ruan Wei raised his hand to take it, but threw it on the ground.
She doesn't care about her image at all.
It broke with one kick.
No conspiracy or overt plot is as satisfying as her kick!
"You!" Ruan He was furious. "What are you doing?!"
A barely perceptible flash of panic crossed his eyes.
He looked heartbroken again, "Weiwei, I know you and Nan are very close, but how could uncle hurt you? We are family!"
Every word was sincere, as if he was the elder who cared most about his brother and sister in the world.
OK, OK.
You are playing moral kidnapping, right?
As long as she has no morals, no one can be tied to her head!
"A family?"
Ruan Wei chuckled, looking up to meet his fiery gaze. She curved her eyebrows and said sarcastically, "You're just pretending, but you're taking it seriously? You can fool my father with your blood relationship, but you can't fool me."
"idiot."
She murmured, and these words sounded perfectly natural coming out of her mouth.
After these words were spoken, the crowd became even more agitated.
There seemed to be the sound of a bamboo flute in the distance, which gradually reached the ears of everyone present.
This is!
Are we finally going to talk about the sudden death of the previous head of the family four years ago?
The debris on the ground was mixed together, but liquid was oozing out.
Ruan Ruanzhi took over the conversation, "Ruan He, you're playing this kind of trick?"
He kicked the fragments of the magic weapon on the ground, and a pool of thick black blood suddenly spread out.
In full view of the public——
Wisps of demonic energy rose from the liquid.
“Demonic energy!”
"Demon blood, it's demon blood! No wonder it can detect demonic energy. With this demon blood stuffed into the demon-hunting device, whoever it detects will be a demon!"
"Ruan He actually framed his own nephew. If he doesn't want to give up the throne, why would he hold such a grand succession ceremony when he's still in his prime?"
yes.
Ruan Wei looked at Ruan He with a smile, "What a good person, he has a clear conscience——"
What a great Ruan Wei!
Ruan He was extremely angry.
I had to sacrifice the car to save the king——
He reacted quickly, "Third brother?!"
Ruan He immediately turned around and looked at Ruan Zhong in disbelief, whose head was still bleeding.
"How could you frame Nanzhi like this?"
"You bought this demon-hunting device in the city. Just because I disagree with you becoming the head of the family, you can't treat my second brother's bloodline like this. He's your own nephew. How can you be so worthy of my second brother?"
Ruan Zhong: What?
He has always been slow to think. Ruan Zhong opened his mouth and explained: "No, brother, it's true that I bought the things, but..."
"alright!"
"Now that things have come to this, Third Brother, stop quibbling," Ruan He quickly interrupted him, "Come here! Take him away and retry him on another day."
No matter how stupid Ruan Zhong was, he understood that Ruan He was going to use him to silence the gossips of the people.
Ruan Zhong is a good-for-nothing and his cultivation has not improved at all for many years.
He struggled desperately, his expression frantic, "Ruan He, how dare you! You killed... Ugh! Ugh—"
The guards easily captured him, covered his mouth and tried to drag him away.
Ruan Wei was far away, and there was also Ruan He in between. If she took action, he might stop her.
Ruan Wei turned around and shouted, "Big Brother!"
The sound of the flute gradually rose.
In an instant, the temperature in the courtyard dropped.
"Frost."
Xiao Xuantong, holding a raven, crossed the crowd and rushed into the group of guards with a sword.
Icy air emanated from his body, freezing his joints without mercy. Frost began to form at his elbows. Xiao Xuantong pulled Ruan Zhong out from the center of the guards.
He swung his arm and threw the man out.
The heavy object fell from his hand, and Xiao Xuantong couldn't help but turn his wrist.
This thing is solid and incredibly heavy.
Xiao Xuantong went forward to meet the enemy, sword drawn, and faced the Ruan family guards who were still chasing him.
They are all golden elixirs, so who is afraid of whom?
Penglai swordsmanship is best used when one is fighting against many.
As a direct disciple, it would be too shameful if I couldn't even beat a few Jindan guards raised by a few noble families.
There was a melee over there.
Seeing this, Ruan He immediately took action. His target was Ruan Zhong, and a vast sword energy rushed towards him.
Ruan Zhong fell and got a bruise on his face.
He scrambled to his feet and looked at his good brother in disbelief.
Ruan He is so cruel!
Every move is aimed at taking his life!
"What's the rush?"
The Red Hare stabbed towards him from the sky, but Ruan Ruanzhi dodged and instantly saved Ruan Zhong who was doomed to die.
Ruan He was furious, "You guys!"
His voice was sinister. "You're determined to go against me, aren't you?"
Oh~
Some people have lost their minds and stopped pretending.
Ruan Wei, "Oh, no way, no way——"
"Isn't anyone going to get angry?"
The girl laughed in a clear voice, and her words were blunt and sarcastic, making people laugh out loud.
Against the backdrop of this huge melee, various spiritual energies rose up, and the sword energy rippled the hair at her temples. She looked like a monster that had accidentally jumped into the human conflict, quirky and full of interest.
The man in the crowd also chuckled. He straightened his left sleeve and when he saw that the situation was stable, he threw the stone in his hand away.
Ruan He was so irritated by her that his forehead throbbed, and he suddenly stabbed Ruan Wei with a sword.
This girl is so eloquent.
Can’t keep it!
"You are determined to disrupt today's succession ceremony!"
He talks nonsense and speaks without thinking.
It seemed that his righteous words could make people ignore the fact that he was using a deadly move on his own niece.
It was clearly him who first came up with the plan to accuse Ruan Ruanzhi of colluding with the evil cultivators!
Ruan Wei immediately hid behind Ruan Ruanzhi. Red Hare was indeed a famous spiritual sword on the sword list. It was really sharp. Ruan Ruanzhi could fight back and forth with Ruan He, who was in the Nascent Soul stage, with it.
Ruan Wei, "You are anxious, you are anxious, you are anxious——"
"Shut up!"
Ruan He was so irritated by her that he had a splitting headache, but Ruan Ruanzhi's protection was too meticulous and he couldn't find her no matter what.
Ruan Wei deliberately led people to where the guests gathered.
“That’s enough!”
A powerful pressure suddenly emerged.
The spiritual swords all over the field were clanging and trembling uncontrollably.
