Lightning on a sunny day… Such a strange thing was really rare, especially when the lightning struck Xue Lianfeng directly.
“Ah…” Xue Lianfeng was struck by lightning. Furthermore, he was struck on the middle of his head. Even his soul was shattered.
The people holding Xue Lianfeng were frightened by the sudden lightning in the sky. They hurriedly threw him aside and hid, watching helplessly as Xue Lianfeng was struck to death.
After Xue Lianfeng was struck by the lightning, his entire world darkened. Not only was his body incomparably painful, but even his soul was in pain. It was not ordinary pain, it was as if his entire body and soul were being torn apart bit by bit.
If it was only pain, it would’ve been fine. The terrifying thing was that he did not even have the right to cry out in pain. He could not move his body either. He could only bear the painful torture and listen to a voice that was like the god of death enter his ears.
“Is This Master’s woman someone you can randomly insult? Since you insulted her, you have to pay the price.”
Who was this voice?
This Master?
Who would call themselves This Master?
Xue Lianfeng did not know. He only knew that the person who spoke was very powerful and terrifying. Just the sound alone was enough to make people panic to the extreme.
Right, if this person said ‘This Master’s woman’, then this person should be Ye Jiushang, the Ninth Lord of the Ye Dynasty.
Xue Lianfeng really wanted to clarify these things, but his vitality had already completely disappeared, and his soul had completely dissipated. He was completely and utterly dead.
In the eyes of outsiders, Xue Lianfeng had only been unlucky enough to be struck by lightning. It was the heavens who wanted to take him in, so he could not blame anyone.
Xue Hanxi looked at Xue Lianfeng, who had died miserably. Although he was very sad, he was really helpless. He could only accept reality and think about his last act of filial piety. “Fanxin, Grandpa is already dead. Let me take his body away and bury it properly.”
“The grudges between people can be resolved with their deaths. If you want to take him away, then go ahead. It won’t be long before I leave. I might never return in my life, so take care.” Xue Fanxin originally wanted to take out some pills or something for Xue Hanxi, but in the end, she did not take them out.
Everyone had their own way of living. Being ordinary might not be a bad thing.
“Thank you!” Xue Hanxi thanked Xue Fanxin and took Xue Lianfeng’s corpse away.
Because Xue Fanxin had allowed it, no one dared to stop him and they let Xue Hanxi leave.
The moment Xue Hanxi left, the people from the Bai and Lian families started to panic, because the situation was even worse than they had imagined. However, Xue Fanxin had said that she would not interfere with the four great families. The family’s crisis this time would probably be very difficult to survive.
Now that the Yi and Xue families had already been destroyed, only the Bai and Lian families were left. The outcome was probably not much better.
Xue Fanxin turned her gaze to the people from the Bai and Lian families and sighed. “You can leave. I said that I wouldn’t interfere in the matters of the four great families, so I won’t interfere. What you plant will cause you to reap what you sow. What happens will depend on your own luck.”
“Ninth Imperial Consort, our Bai family was not willing to help the Empress rebel. We were coerced. Furthermore, we did not help the Empress. Many people in the Bai family are innocent. They are like these commoners who have been poisoned by the plague. In your opinion, do they really deserve to die?” Bai Wuchen finally spoke to Xue Fanxin, but he chose to persuade her with reason.
Bai Wuchen’s method made Xue Fanxin feel a little conflicted.
