Chapter 291: Chapter 291: The Crisis of the Xiao Family (Part 1)

Knowing that the girl’s words were true, wanting her to accept him was all too difficult… Yet, upon hearing these words, Feng Jingtian’s heart still ached.

This woman, still so direct, did she not know how hurtful her words were?

The only consolation was that she seemed to no longer hate him as much, which could be considered a result of his efforts, couldn’t it? If one day he could talk with her as friends, perhaps their relationship could progress further…

Watching the girl’s receding figure, Feng Jingtian did not stop her, merely gazing at her gradually disappearing white silhouette, unable to take his eyes off her for a long time…

…

Saint Realm, Xiao Family.

Xiao Tianyu was talking with Madam Sheng Yue about something serious, as both of their faces were especially stern. Seeing his parents like this, Xiao Qingqing unusually quieted down, his exquisite features clouded with distress.

“My husband, do you really think Yue’er is in Central Province?”

Xiao Tianyu solemnly nodded, “It’s Young Sect Master Murong Qingchu of the Medicine Sect who deduced it. He said Yue’er has gone to Central Province and her strength has even been sealed, so Wuchen hurriedly rushed there searching for Yue’er. Although Yue’er is talented, if her strength is sealed, encountering any danger would be disastrous.”

Perhaps sensing the worry in Madam Sheng Yue’s eyes, Xiao Tianyu forced a light smile and said, “Yu’er, rest assured, since Wuchen has gone, Yue’er will not be in any danger. Do you not trust your son-in-law? From the beginning when we entrusted Yue’er to him, I could see that Wuchen would protect her safety. All we can do is wait…”

That man, with his formidable strength and devoted love, would certainly do his utmost to protect her…

“Who are you to rush into my Xiao Family and cause trouble!”

Just then, a loud shout came from outside the door.

Xiao Tianyu and Madam Sheng Yue looked at each other, both frowning simultaneously.

“My husband, let’s go have a look…”

“Alright,” Xiao Tianyu helped Madam Sheng Yue to stand up, glanced at Xiao Qingqing, and smilingly said, “Qingqing, you wait here for your parents, we’ll be back soon.”

Xiao Qingqing blinked her eyes and obediently nodded.

Within the courtyard of the Xiao family, a breeze fluttered the corners of her garments as a woman, like the Jiutian Xuan Nu, stood in midair, haughtily surveying the Xiao family ahead of her.

Her lips curled into a smirk, as she coldly laughed, “So these are Mu Ruyue’s relatives in this lifetime? It seems nothing special. That woman values loyalty above all, so I’ll destroy her home, kill her family members, and make her regret for a lifetime. Hopefully, as in her past life, she tragically encounters the Heavenly Tribulation while trying to save others and dies, saving me the trouble of dealing with her…”

Mu Ruyue, the greatest mistake you made in both your lives was to steal the man of Nangong Zifeng!

In your past life, you were an orphan, and the Zi Family was your only kin. Even now, I can imagine the heart-wrenching grief on your face when you saw the Zi Family annihilated, that expression should belong on you.

And in this life, I want you to suffer the same anguish. Now that Brother Wuchen is not in the Xiao family, I wonder who can protect this family…

Almost seeing the despair on the girl’s face, Nangong Zifeng laughed coldly, her eyes flickering ominously, an ice-cold and haughty demeanor, her inherent superiority erupting from her, accompanied by a strong intent to kill.

“Xiao Family, you should never have brought Mu Ruyue back; otherwise, you wouldn’t be facing the catastrophe of extermination. Blame her, it’s because she offended me that I will kill you all!”
