Chapter 84: Who dares to cause trouble at the Xu family?

  "Round!"

  Originally with her back to the outside, Mo Yingyue didn't know what had happened yet. However, when she was pulled into Li Yuan's arms, she already felt something was off. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but anxiously cry out...

  With a "whoosh", the cold light was struck down by a bright red glow...

  "Don't worry, I'm fine." Li Yuan patted Mo Yingyue's back reassuringly, his eyes drifting towards Leng Ruoxue not far away, his gaze filled with gratitude. He knew that if it wasn't for Leng Ruoxue's timely release of spiritual energy just now, he would have been dead for sure.

  Leng Ruo Xue received Li Yuan's gaze, only slightly nodding her head. However, seeing the two of them chatting intimately, she couldn't help but feel a bit impatient. Alas! Indeed, they were deeply in love as husband and wife! Didn't they see how dangerous it was here?!

  Seeing that they were fine, and because the couple was reunited, not wanting to be a third wheel, the Ling Beast also thickened its skin and stuck close to them, protecting them. After that, Cold-as-Snow turned her gaze back to the battlefield.

  This batch of black-clad men, the weakest among them were actually high-ranking Spirit Emperors, and two of them were even Spirit Venerables. When did the Xu family cultivate such a batch of elite warriors similar to dead soldiers? Probably no one knows.

  On the battlefield, Leng Qingtian, Lin Liang and the old man were all fighting with high morale against those black-clothed men. Under the moonlight, various spiritual powers were flying around. However, some of the black-clothed men seemed unwilling to fight for long and were looking for an opportunity to escape...

  Leng Ruoxue released all of her few beasts: "Keep an eye on them, don't let a single one escape."

  "Don't worry, master. With me, Ling, here, none of these people will be able to escape." Ling said confidently, and then enlarged his body, surrounding the entire battlefield with a wall of copper and iron...

  "My god! It's another divine beast!" Lin Liang, who was fighting the black-clothed man, inadvertently caught a glimpse of the giant golden python and was shocked to the point where his jaw almost dropped. How many divine beasts did that girl have?! He was speechless!

  "That's right, it's a divine beast!" The old man was also shocked, this breath couldn't be wrong, and he too felt that his own beast had some fearful thoughts.

  "Old Leng, how many divine beasts does Ruo Xue actually have?" Lin Liang asked amidst the fight. This was truly a case of one person being more blessed than another! Some people went their whole lives without owning even one divine beast, but someone like Ruo Xue had at least two... sigh, he couldn't help but feel envious of her good fortune.

  "I don't know either." Leng Qingtian pretended to be stupid and said, fearing that if he spoke the truth, it would scare them to death. But how could such a kind person do something like this?

  "Alas, I'm even jealous of you! Why doesn't our Li family have such a descendant?" The old man's heart was also unbalanced, and he complained.

  "Hmph, go ahead and be jealous!" Cold Tian sneered proudly, casually killing another black-clad man.

  Under the joint attack of the three Spirit Venerables, soon more than half of the black-clothed men died, and those who didn't die were all injured. Slowly, one by one, the black-clothed men died, until only two Spirit Venerable-level black-clothed men remained on the scene.

  "You three spiritual masters are bullying the minority with your numbers, what a great skill." One of the men in black knew that they couldn't escape today and couldn't help but speak out.

  "How about deceiving the minority with the majority? Didn't you just do that?" The old man retorted, who among them was softhearted and actually used this tactic on them, useless!

  "No need to say more with them, let's go together." Leng Qingtian said even more succinctly.

  "Alright, let's go together, quick fight and quick resolution!" Lin Liang also agreed, after finishing the fight, we can go home and sleep!

  "If we're going to gang up on someone, how can we leave out us?" Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Yu also came over.

  "Ruo Xue, don't compete with us." Lin Liang said somewhat discontentedly. These old bones of theirs hadn't had a good workout in a long time...

  "Master, let us handle these two." A small black fox jumped into Leng Ruo Xue's arms and coquettishly said, it had been a long time since they last fought, their paws were itching!

  With a frosty gaze and a head full of black lines, she stared at them, wondering why these people all liked to fight so much?

  "Alright, you two fight then!" Leng Ruoxue said somewhat helplessly, turning around and leaving the battlefield with Yao Jiao.

  Soon, under the coordination of the three N beasts, two black-clothed men at the Spirit Venerable level were instantly killed, and not even their corpses remained...

  "Old man, how did you run into the men in black? Didn't things go well with the Fu family?" asked Leng Ruoxue, somewhat perplexed.

  "We succeeded, and after we controlled the Fu family's people, I don't know how we startled these black-clothed men. We didn't even figure out where they came from before we started fighting directly. Luckily you arrived in time, otherwise it would have definitely leaked out." The old man said with some worry, what a close call!

  "We also met the men in black." Leng Qingtian said sympathetically, glancing at the old man.

  "You've also encountered it, and you're so fast." The old man said enviously. On his side, he was the only Spirit Venerable, and he still had to take care of Li Yuan, so when fighting, he was somewhat hindered and found it a bit difficult.

  "We haven't met so many people in black like you." Lin Liang explained.

  "In fact, before the competition in the academy, we had killed a black-robed man." Leng Ruoxue glanced at them and explained what happened when they encountered the black-robed man that day.

  "So, to say that the black-clothed men had already infiltrated Dongchi long ago? We just didn't discover it!" The old man said with some worry. These black-clothed men, although they were dead soldiers, had their own thoughts and were therefore very difficult to deal with.

  "I think these people should be here to deal with me, but they have taken the Fu and Chen families as temporary shelters." Leng Ruoxue analyzed, it seems that she needs to go to Nanxi Country again.

  "The Mo family..." The old man looked at Mo Yingyue and hesitated to speak.

  "The Mo family hasn't arrived yet, I reckon they still don't trust the Mo family." Leng Ruoxue furrowed her brow and guessed.

  Everyone nodded in agreement after hearing this.

  "Everyone, tonight's matter has been settled, let's head back first!" Leng Qingtian said, seeing that the sky was almost bright.

  "Go back!"

  After hearing Leng Qingtian's words, everyone left the Fu family mansion together.

  Leng Ruo Xue and others returned to Jiang Jun Fu after, directly returning to their room to rest.

  The next morning, Leng Ruo Xue woke up and went to find her grandfather. After discussing with him in detail, she then left with the demon for Nan Xi country again.

  After arriving in Nanxi Country, Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Jiao rushed straight to the imperial palace to see the Emperor of Nanxi Country.

  Inside the study room.

  Huang Fu Zhen sat on the dragon chair, concentrating and thinking about what Leng Ruo Xue had just said. The empress sat beside him, also deep in thought...

  As for Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Jie, after they finished saying what they wanted to say, they sat on the chairs, sipping tea and nibbling on small pastries.

  "Has everything been taken care of in Dongchi Country?" After some thought, Huangfu Zhen asked with a furrowed brow, the actions of this Dongchi Country were indeed swift.

  "Hmm, so I'm here to assist you on purpose." Leng Ruoxue took a sip of tea and said that if it wasn't for the appearance of the black-clothed man, she probably wouldn't have thought of coming to Nanxi Country to lend them a helping hand.

  "When are we going to take action?" Huang Fu asked, unable to hold back. He had been tolerating the Xu family for many years and had long wanted to take action, but he did not dare to act rashly without absolute certainty.

  "The day after tomorrow, I plan to go to Huo's house." Leng Ruo Xue said thoughtfully. Since she sent out the message, there had been no news from Huo's house, so she wanted to personally confirm it. If she could pull Huo's house over, that would be best, but if Huo's house wanted to be her enemy, she didn't care either.

  "Alright, then it's settled for the day after tomorrow. I'll have someone arrange a place for you to stay." Huang Pu said warmly, the matter that had been weighing on his heart for so many years was finally going to be resolved, and his mood also lightened up a lot.

  "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. We can just stay at the inn." Leng Ruoxue smiled lightly and said calmly. Staying in the palace would make her worry about leaking information, what if Xu's family spies found out? Wouldn't that give them a heads up?

  "Your Majesty, we bid you farewell." Leng Ruoxue said, then left the palace with Yao Jiao.

  After returning to the guest house, the demon followed Cold Snow into her room directly.

  "Xu'er, are we really going to Huo's house tomorrow?" He asked, sitting down, he couldn't help but ask, he didn't want to go to Huo's house, waa...

  "Tomorrow, let's go and see what the Huo family is all about. If we can pull them over to our side, it'll save us a lot of effort after all, they are the largest clan, their strength shouldn't be underestimated." Leng Ruoxue explained.

  "But..." The demon was extremely reluctant.

  "What's wrong, are you still thinking about last time? That thing didn't have anyone knowing it was us who did it, what are you afraid of?" Cold Snow lightly teased, this little demon's appearance is really too cute.

  "I'm not afraid!" The demon's expression was slightly awkward as he hastily denied it. How could he possibly be afraid of such a small thing? He just didn't want to get involved with the Huo family, who let that damned Huo Qing always have his eyes on Xue Er.

  "Since you're not afraid, let's get some rest early today and go to the Huo family tomorrow morning." Leng Ruo Xue didn't expose him, but instead smiled slightly and took advantage of the situation.

  The demon heard what Leng Ruo Xue said and nodded, then very consciously went back to his own room to rest.

  The next morning, Leng Ruo Xue woke up early, washed and dressed, then went to find Yao Jiao. The two of them had breakfast together before heading directly to the Huo family's main residence.

  In the living room of the Huo family's main house.

  Huǒ Yì sat in the main seat of the host, and the elders of the Huǒ family sat on either side of him.

  "Master of the house, it's best we make a decision on this matter as soon as possible." The elderly man sitting at the head of the hall, with an anxious and urgent expression, said that if they waited until the Xu family became prominent, it would be difficult to deal with them later.

  "Yes, yes! The elder is right." One of the elders echoed in agreement.

  "The head of the household, I think it's best if we four families discuss this matter together. Otherwise, if only our family takes the lead and ends up in a stalemate with the Xu family, won't that be beneficial to others?" said another elder who disagreed.

  Hu Yi sat in the main seat, expressionless and silent as he listened to the discussion of the various elders. The Hu family was now divided into two factions over this matter. One faction, led by the eldest elder, advocated for taking the initiative and striking first, while the other faction, led by his younger brother, did not agree with taking action against the Xu family at present.

  "The master of the house, Cold as Snow wants to see you." At this time, a servant came in to report.

  "Cold as snow? What is he here for?" an elder muttered to himself.

  "Ask her in!" Huo Yi ordered coldly.

  "Yes, master." The servant took his leave and left the council chamber.

  "Hello, Master Huo." Under the guidance of the servant, walked into the conference hall with a polite tone.

  "Miss Leng, it's been a long time, please sit down." Huo Yi nodded slightly and said politely.

  "Miss Leng, you've arrived. I don't know what brings you here?" Old Master Huo asked, unable to contain his curiosity. He had a very good impression of Leng Ruoxue and had always hoped that the Huo family could have a mistress like her. Unfortunately, she didn't seem interested in their young master. Sigh! What a pity!

  "I'm here for the Xu family." Leng Ruoxue didn't waste any words, directly getting to the point while observing the reactions of those present.

  For the Xu family? The various elders looked at each other in dismay, but no one spoke up first, instead waiting for Leng Ruoxue's next words.

  Leng Ruoxue coldly swept her gaze over Huo Yi and the other elderly sages present, silently cursing them as cunning old foxes. She then continued, "I plan to deal with the Xu family; I wonder if the Huo family has any intention of cooperating."

  "What can you bring to our Huo family that would make us cooperate with you? Our Huo family is the number one aristocratic family on the entire Dragon Continent." An elder spoke up first.

  "What other powerful spirits can the Huo family produce besides their first ancestor? " asked Leng Ruoxue, not answering but asking instead. To be honest, others might care about the status of the Huo family, but she didn't care at all. After all, as long as she casually took out a divine beast, it would be enough to make the Huo family drink a whole pot.

  "That... The elder didn't say anything else, because their Huo family has two spiritual masters, but currently only the master of the house is left to guard the Huo family. As for the other one, who was also the former master of the Huo family, he had gone missing long ago."

  "I came with sincerity to cooperate with you, if you rely on your high status and don't want to cooperate with me, I don't care. However, I must say the ugly words first, if we cooperate now, our relationship is equal, but if you want to cooperate with me in the future, it's not necessarily the case." Leng Ruoxue said half-jokingly and half-threateningly, the best way to deal with this kind of arrogant family was to overwhelm them with momentum.

  "Leng Miss, you want to cooperate with us to deal with the Xu family, and the Xu family also wants to cooperate with us to deal with you. The conditions offered by the Xu family are quite generous, I wonder what kind of conditions you can offer?" Another elder said with a calculating tone.

  "I won't set any conditions, if you want to cooperate with the Xu family to deal with me, I don't care. I just hope that when the time comes, you won't regret it." Leng Ruoxue's icy gaze swept over the elder who had spoken earlier, and then seemed to smile as she glanced around at the seated elders, finally fixing her eyes on Huo Yi.

  Staring at Huo Yi for a few seconds, Leng Ruo Xue moved her gaze away, turned her head and looked at the demon: "Since the Huo family has no intention of cooperating, then let's not waste our time."

  "Let's go!" The demon stood up and said calmly with a expressionless face.

  "Ah, Cold Miss." Watching Cold Ruo Xue and Ye Chen leave, the Great Elder looked at Huo Yi and couldn't help but stand up and chase after them.

  "Leng young lady." The elder chased after Leng Ruoxue, looking at them with a face full of apology.

  "Is there something on Elder's mind?" asked Leng Ruoxue with a faint smile.

  "That... what just happened, I hope you don't mind too much." The elder said with some embarrassment, he had never known that a little girl would make him feel so pressured.

  "Elder, I'm quite petty. Since the Huo family looks down on me and doesn't want to cooperate with me, then forget it." Leng Ruoxue said nonchalantly, but she knew that the Huo family probably wouldn't cooperate with the Xu family either. Plotting against a tiger is asking for death, and Huo Wei isn't stupid.

  Having said what needed to be said, Leng Ruoxue and Yao Jiao left the Huo family's main residence under the helpless gaze of the Great Elder.

  "Xue Er, this fire family is really ungrateful. They will regret it in the future." The demon said indignantly on the way back to the guest house.

  "You don't have to comfort me like this, I'm not angry." said Leng Ruo Xue with a hint of emotion.

  "Hehe, as long as you're not angry, that's all that matters." The demon smiled, completely unfazed that Xue'er had seen through him, and Xue'er was truly getting to know him better and better.

  After seeing off Leng Ruoxue and Ye Chen, the Great Elder returned to the conference hall.

  "House owner, are we really not going to choose to cooperate with Leng Ruo Xue?" everyone asked directly after sitting down on the chairs.

  "Elder, Cold-as-Snow is just a little girl, what qualifications does she have to cooperate with our Huo family?" an elder said disdainfully.

  "Little kid? Ninth Elder, even with your strength, you're probably not a match for Cold-as-Snow." The Great Elder coldly glanced at the Ninth Elder who had spoken up and rebuked him. These people from the Fire Family have always been high and mighty, looking down on others for many years.

  "How is this possible? I am the peak of the Spiritual Sovereign!" The Ninth Elder roared with an incredulous face, was the Great Elder being too exaggerated?

  "Believe it or not." The elder didn't bother to waste words on them anymore, but instead stared straight at Huo Yi, waiting for the master's decision.

  "Let's see first." Huo Yi slowly spat out a few words. The Xu family and Leng Ruo Xue would eventually clash, so the battle between them was something Huo Yi didn't plan to participate in for now. To put it bluntly, he wanted to be a fisherman, but what he couldn't have imagined was that being a fisherman for Leng Ruo Xue wouldn't be that easy.

  Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Jiao returned to the inn and made a detailed plan for their next move, determined to make no mistakes.

  The next day, which was the agreed date with Huang Fu Zhen, Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Nu arrived at the imperial palace together, joining forces with Huang Fu Zhen, ready to take action at any moment.

  "Alright, let's get started." Huang Pu said to Leng Ruo Xue after checking the time.

  "You are in charge of Xu Linger, the black-clad man is handed over to us." Leng Ruoxue nodded and said to Huangfu Zhen.

  "Feathers, Ling, you must guard the entire imperial palace well." Leng Ruo Xue instructed her own beasts again.

  "Don't worry, Master. Not a single fly will escape." Ling guaranteed, wrapping the icy snow-like jade bangle around her wrist.

  After everything was arranged, Leng Ruo Xue followed Huang Fu Zhen to Feng Qi Palace where Xu Liang Er lived.

  After entering the inner palace of Feng Qi Palace, Leng Ruo Xue and others couldn't help but feel a little awkward, because Xu Liang Er was lying on top of a man with her clothes in disarray...

  Xu Lian'er, who had been confined to her own palace, suddenly saw so many people appear together and was stunned for a moment. However, she quickly came back to herself and hastily knelt down on the ground. "Your Majesty."

  Xu Lian'er knelt down, simply tidying up her disheveled clothes with one hand, while her heart was filled with anxiety, and on her face, she wore a pitiful expression. She had not expected the Emperor to arrive suddenly, and even more so, to see her in such an unseemly state...

  "Your Majesty, it seems that Imperial Consort Xu is not content with being alone and has eloped. " Cold Snow glanced at Xu Linger and the man beside her, saying sarcastically, indeed another man just like her father.

  "Cold as snow, how is it you again!"

  Xu Lian'er's eyes flashed with intense hatred as soon as she saw Leng Ruo Xue. That bitch, just seeing Leng Ruo Xue made her think of that woman who had taken away the man she loved. She really couldn't understand why she wasn't good enough compared to that penniless woman, why she couldn't get the heart of the man she liked!

  "Do you hate my mother?" asked Leng Ruo Xue calmly, because a woman who hates out of love can do anything, and Xu Li Er was just such a ruthless and poisonous woman.

  "Yes, I hate her, I wish she were dead. But why isn't it her who's dead? Why?" Xu Lian'er's face twisted in a fierce scowl as she let out a loud, somewhat hysterical cry. Back then, she had gone to great lengths to trick the cold and ruthless couple into going to Nanxi Country. Originally, she had wanted to get rid of that despicable woman, but unexpectedly, she ended up mistakenly killing her own beloved man...

  "Because she has a loving man to protect her." Leng Ruoxue reminded very kindly.

  "No! Brother Leng doesn't love her, he loves me!" Xu Lian'er seemed to be crazily trapped in her own memories, past events becoming her nightmare.

  "Do you think we'll let you off just because you pretend to be crazy? " Leng Ruoxue coldly saw through her, this kind of woman was really too cunning, and keeping her would definitely be a disaster.

  "You actually didn't fall for it, so tell me, what do you plan to do with me?" Xu Lian'er stood up from the ground, where was the timid and pitiful look just now? Humph! Since she had already been caught, she might as well be reckless, after all, she was the young lady of the Xu family, and she didn't believe the emperor would dare to kill her.

  "Your Majesty, I really sympathize with you." Leng Ruoxue looked at Huangfu Zhen and suddenly said.

  "She has nothing to do with me." Huang Pu said calmly, without a hint of anger on his face for being cuckolded.

  "Your Majesty, you say it has nothing to do with me? Then where did our daughter come from?" Xu Lian'er provoked, she hated the most was when men wanted to shirk their relationship with her, was she a virus or something?

  "That's just a wild species." Huang Pu's face was full of disgust. At this time, this woman still liked to play drama.

  "You actually said that your eighteen-year-old daughter is a wild seed? You're really heartless, man!" Xu Lian'er laughed loudly, with a smug and boastful expression on her face.

  "I've never touched you, so that daughter of yours isn't a wild seed, what is she? I'm afraid even you don't know who that daughter's father is?" Huang Fu Zhen sneered disdainfully. For so many years, he had been forcing himself to dote on the mother and daughter, waiting for today. Today, he would finally avenge his grandfather.

  "No, how is this possible? I don't believe it!" Xu Lian'er shouted in disbelief.

  "Xu Linger, where is the person you sent to kill my parents that year?" asked Leng Ruxue with a expressionless face. Although Xu Linger was the mastermind, she didn't plan on letting the murderer off either.

  "Do you think I'd tell you? You'll never know, haha!" Xu Lian'er laughed maniacally, but her heart was desolate beyond compare...

  "If it were Snow, those people would have been killed by her long ago. Don't underestimate this woman's obsession with your father." Huang Pu said hastily, fearing that Cold Snow would be influenced by Xu Linger.

  "Xu Linger, where is your person?" Cold Ruo Xue nodded and asked lightly. Whether Xu Linger spoke or not made no difference to her; anyway, as long as it was someone from the Xu family, she would not let them off.

  "Your Majesty, must you really kill me?" Xu Linger asked gently, looking at Huangfu Zhen with soft eyes.

  "Is there any other doubt?" Huang Fu asked back, his face full of disgusted expressions.

  "You'll regret this, haha!" Xu Lian'er waved her hand and a group of black-clad men emerged from all sides, surrounding Leng Ruo Xue and the others.

  Her eyes were half-closed like snow, releasing icy coldness and murderous intent from her pupils...

  She finally came out, and she was really afraid that these people would hide in the corner and not come out. Otherwise, how could she have said so much nonsense to Xu Lianer?

  "Cold as snow, don't worry, considering Liao Ge's sake, I'll leave you a whole corpse." Xu Liang'er said very kindly, as if she had given Leng Ruo Xue a great favor.

  "Thank you, I don't need it."

  "It's up to you now."

  Leng Ruo Xue finished speaking, drew out her own sword and directly stabbed towards the several black-clothed men closest to herself. Wherever the sword energy reached, fiery red spiritual power also followed closely behind, with a majestic momentum, chilling aura that oppressed people. Wherever the sword reached, numerous black-clothed men were killed or injured...

  Huang Pu saw Leng Ruo Xue and didn't say a word, directly taking action, also picking up his own sword, stabbing towards Xu Liang'er, but was blocked by the man beside Xu Liang'er, missing...

  Leng Ruoxue and Yao Jiao quickly disposed of all the black-clad men outside the temple, then returned to the inner temple, where they saw Huangfu Zhen and others still fighting against the black-clad men inside the temple. Xu Linger stood aside, watching with a cold eye.

  "Monster, go help them."

  Leng Ruo Xue finished speaking to Yao Jiao and directly walked over to Xu Lian Er's side, capturing her in his hands.

  "Cold as snow, let me go, or you'll regret it." Xu Lian'er struggled for a while, seeing that she couldn't break free, and then spoke threateningly.

  "Letting you go would be my only regret." Leng Ruo Xue said as she took out a pellet of medicine and stuffed it into Xu Liang Er's mouth.

  "Cough cough, what did you feed me?" Xu Lian'er asked in terror.

  "Poison, you think I'd let you die that easily?"

  "You... you dare, I am the young lady of the Xu family, how dare you?" Xu Linger shouted in disbelief, this Cold Ruo Xue was too bold to treat her like this, humph! She won't let Cold Ruo Xue off.

  "Is that Miss Xu? I'm so scared!" Cold Ruo Xue directly knocked out Xu Lian Er, humph! Too lazy to listen to her nonsense.

  With the help of Yaojiu, Huangfu Zhen and others quickly solved the black-clothed men in the inner temple.

  "Except for Xu Linger, everyone else is dead." Huang Fu Zhen said to Leng Ruo Xue after sending someone to count the bodies.

  Leng Ruo Xue nodded slightly, with You in attendance, within a radius of 10,000 meters, no one could escape.

  "Your Majesty, it's done, we'll take our leave now."

  Leng Ruoxue nodded slightly and signaled to the demon to carry Xu Linger, then said something to Huangfu Zhen before jumping onto Yu's back and leaving Nanxi Country.

  After returning to the general's mansion, Leng Qingtian looked at Xu Linger who was tied up with ropes and suspended in mid-air, and couldn't help but feel speechless.

  Xu Lian'er won't be dragged back like this all the way, thought Ling Tian with curiosity.

  "Grandfather, it's just as you thought." Leng Ruoxue saw through her grandfather's thoughts and said with a sigh. There was no other way; Yu didn't want to carry Xu Linger, the demon also didn't want to keep holding her, and she couldn't possibly put Xu Linger in the 'Qian Kun Ring', so they had to bring her back like this.

  "Xue Er, bring her back. How do you plan to deal with her?" Leng Qing Tian asked somewhat curiously. This woman was too evil, causing the Cold family to be torn apart. He absolutely hated her to the bone and didn't want her to die easily at all.

  "Grandpa, you can deal with her however you want, just don't kill her." Leng Ruoxue understood and said. She knew grandpa's mood very well, so no matter what grandpa wanted to do, she would absolutely support him unconditionally.

  "Alright, I'll leave this woman to Grandfather then!" Leng Qingtian said with a smile, he had many ways to torment people and would definitely treat her well.

  "Grandpa, you play slowly, I and Yaoniang will go back to the room to rest." Leng Ruoxue yawned and said, she hadn't slept well for several days and was very tired.

  "En, you all go rest quickly." Leng Qingtian hastily said after hearing his granddaughter's words.

  Leng Ruoxue returned to her room and went straight into the 'Qiankun Chui' to rest. The spiritual energy inside was dense, so she could rest while cultivating at the same time.

  After Leng Ruoxue had a good sleep, she left the 'Qiankun Chui' and found that two days had already passed outside.

  "I say, Snowy, you're quite the sleeper, aren't you?" Leng Qingtian teased, looking at his granddaughter who had appeared in the dining hall. He knew that Snowy might be staying in her room, so he hadn't let anyone disturb her.

  "Grandpa, I'm so tired!" Leng Ruoxue said with an innocent face as she sat down. Sigh! Ever since Feng Da and the others left Phoenix City, the mansion had become quiet and deserted, and she didn't know how they were doing on their end.

  A few days ago, after Leng Ruoxue decided to cut off the Xu family's arm first, she had Fengjia Dazhang arrange for someone to go to Beiliang, while she sent Feng Da and others to Zhongyu...

  "Wait until we've settled the Xu family's affairs, then you can sleep as much as you want." Leng Qingtian said with a tinge of heartache.

  "Grandfather, how is Li Yuan doing?" asked Leng Ruxue, picking up a pastry and asking with concern.

  "He's fine now, but Snow, you've lost a lot this time." Leng Qingtian said with some heartache, he didn't expect Snow to be so generous, taking out so many Bi Ling Dan at once and giving them to Old Man Lin and the ancestors.

  "In times of crisis, increasing strength is the most important thing. Moreover, the Spirit Dan is nothing to me." As an ally, Cold Snow naturally couldn't be too stingy, otherwise, her ally's strength would be too weak and would only drag her down.

  "That's right, Xue'er, look at Grandpa, isn't he also raising a few ninth-grade sacred beasts?" Leng Qingtian couldn't help but ask, humph, he only had one sacred beast, originally Old Man Lin was so envious, but now that old man's sacred beast had also advanced in rank, and that old man actually had two sacred beasts, wu...

  "Grandpa, you and Old Man Lin are not kids anymore, why are you still competing like this?" Leng Ruoxue said somewhat helplessly. These two old men combined were almost 200 years old, when would they ever grow up?!

  "Grandpa just felt a bit unfair in his heart, didn't want to compare with him, really." Leng Qingtian hastily and carefully expressed his attitude, afraid of making his precious granddaughter angry.

  "Grandfather, let's wait until we meet a ninth-level sacred beast. At that time, I'll make you contract with it." Leng Ruoxue said intentionally after pausing for a moment.

  "Xue Er, aren't you angry?" Leng Qing Tian couldn't help but ask.

  "This is a good thing, the stronger Grandfather's power, the more at ease I am." Leng Ruoxue was very worried, she couldn't always be by her loved ones' side to protect them, so as long as there was an opportunity, she wanted to increase their strength. This way, even if she wasn't by their side, she would still feel at ease. As for Brother, after dealing with the Xu family's people, she would personally go help him find herbs.

  "Xuě ér..." = "Snow..."

  "Grandpa, let's take action once Feng Da and the others send back news!" Leng Ruo Xue interrupted her grandfather, saying.

  "Good, let's settle the Xu family early and we'll be at ease." The Xu family is a great hidden danger! The sooner they are eliminated, the better.

  Five days later, Fengjia's senior elder and Feng Da returned with a message at the same time, it was settled.

  Leng Ruo Xue and the old man, Leng Qing Tian, decided to personally go to the main residence of the Xu family in Xi Yun country on the second day after receiving the message, and wipe out the entire Xu family.

  After discussion among all of them, they finally decided to let Lin Liang stay behind and guard while others went to Xiyun together.

  "Grandpa Lin, I'll leave it to you from here." Leng Ruoxue smiled lightly at Lin Liang.

  "Don't worry, I'm here, no one will have a chance to take advantage of you." Lin Liang patted his chest and guaranteed.

  Leng Ruo Xue nodded slightly and waited until everyone had sat on Yu's back before sitting up herself.

  "Feathers, let's go!" Leng Ruo Xue ordered, and lightly waved her hand at Lin Liang.

  "Yes, master." The wings fluttered gently, slowly rising from mid-air and disappearing into the horizon.

  On the road.

  "Little doll, this eagle of yours is really great, flying so fast and stable." The old man said with a face full of envy, he also wanted a flying spirit beast that was so cool.

  "Old man, you already have so many spiritual beasts, aren't you satisfied?" Cold sweat dripped from Leng Ruoxue's forehead, this old man was too greedy!

  "People are never easily satisfied, and for a spiritual beast, of course, the more powerful the better." The old man said disapprovingly.

  "Ah, old man, tell me about that ancestor of the Xu family!" Leng Ruoxue suddenly remembered and asked.

  In these five great families and imperial clans, there is a spiritual ancestor of the highest level presiding over each one. However, most of the ancestors in the families basically don't bother to manage affairs unless something threatens the foundation of the family; otherwise, they generally won't easily appear.

  "That old thing can't even be considered an ancestor, his generation is much lower than mine." The old man said with disdain.

  "That old thing is very sinister, the old man from Nanxi Country was injured by him, but he was also seriously injured and has been hiding to recover for over a decade!"

  "Little girl, did you know why the Xu family was willing to compensate you with so many things in the first place?" The old man asked mysteriously.

  "Why?" Leng Ruoxue was also curious. Logically speaking, the Xu family shouldn't be afraid of them, right? The Xu family had a Spiritual Master after all.

  "Of course it's because... never mind, I won't tell you for now. You'll find out later." The old man paused, having sufficiently piqued Cold-as-Snow's interest, and then decided not to say any more.

  "You old scoundrel, you're fooling me!" Leng Ruoxue glared at the shameless old man, saying viciously.

  "Hey, little girl, I'm just trying to ease the tension a bit. Everyone's too tense." The old man said with a chuckle.

  "Xu'er, the master of the Xu family is indeed very sinister, we must be careful in our dealings with him." Leng Qingtian also said solemnly that if it weren't for Xu Lian'er's father obstructing him back then, he would have killed Xu Lian'er long ago.

  "Grandpa, we will succeed." Leng Ruoxue said with considerable confidence. With so many divine beasts in their hands, if they couldn't beat the Xu family, then it would be better for each of them to just buy a block of tofu instead.

  "Master, master, I won't let the enemy of the master go." The quiet black little fox in Leng Ruoxue's arms took the opportunity to express its attitude and fawned.

  "Good boy." Leng Ruo Xue stroked Yao's soft fur, cooing.

  "Master, and me." Ling, who was putting on his cufflinks, also hastened to say.

  "Be good."

  "Xuě ér, then what about me?" The demon who had been serving as a pillow for Xuě ér also stuck his head out.

  "You be good too." Leng Ruo Xue stroked the demon's head as if petting an animal, coaxing him.

  "Your home must be very lively!" The old man looked at the scene of vying for favor, and smiled slyly at Leng Qingtian.

  "This isn't even the most lively time yet!" Leng Qingtian let out a light sigh, his granddaughter was indeed popular!

  Everyone chatted and laughed along the way. After flying for four days, Leng Ruo Xue and others entered the territory of Xi Yun Country.

  The main house of the Xus is located in Yan City, the capital of Xi Yun Country. After entering Yan City, it was already afternoon, however, Leng Ruo Xue and others did not look for an inn in the city, but instead set up a tent on the outskirts of Yan City.

  After finishing dinner, everyone went into the tent to rest. After a good rest, it was already evening.

  "Little doll, let's go!" The old man said impatiently, his target today was that old thing in the Xu family.

  She looked up at the sky and nodded: "Let's set off!"

  Carried by Yu, everyone soon arrived at the main house of the Xu family.

  "Ling, you're in charge of bringing out the Xu family members!" Leng Ruo Xue ordered calmly. She didn't want to deal with the Xu family in secret anymore, because today she had come specifically to cause trouble, and the fate of the Xu family was already sealed.

  "Alright, master."

  The Ling wrapped around Leng Ruo Xue's wrist suddenly enlarged its body, a divine python swung its tail, and all that was heard was a loud "rumble" sound. The seemingly tall and sturdy courtyard wall of the Xu family was like paper, crumbling down with a series of crashes, one after another...

  After doing all this, Ling returned to Leng Ruo Xue's wrist in a coquettish manner, still rubbing against her with an endearing expression.

  "Good job!" Leng Ruo Xue praised without hesitation.

  "Who dares to make trouble at Xu's house!" As soon as Leng Ruo Xue's voice fell, a loud roar was heard from inside the main hall of the Xu family.
