Immortality Cultivation Era

Chapter 684 Let Them Die

Xie Zhuolian is a bit puzzled now. She kind of cannot figure out the current situation.

So these two men’s lives are in her hands now?

However, she has never thought of handling such a situation!

Seeing Xie Zhuolian’s embarrassed look, Xie Shan and Xie Feng immediately realize that this is their chance of surviving. Hence, they rush to Xie Zhuolian and kneel before her at once. They act so neatly as if having practiced it hundreds of times.

Upon seeing Xie Shan and Xie Feng kneel before her, Xie Zhuolian is also freaked out.

She takes two steps back subconsciously and gapes at them with staring eyes.

“What are you doing?”

“Zhuolian! Please let go of us both! It was our honest mistake. We didn’t think that much! We know we are wrong. We really do. We will never leave the Xie Family again. We promise that we will never blather outside. Please…”

Looking at the two of them kowtowing before her, Xie Zhuolian is flustered for the moment.

“Get up quickly…” Xie Zhuolian is completely dumbfounded. Mostly, she spends most of her time studying medical skills. How can she have the mood to think about this kind of thing?

“Zhuolian, as long as you agree not to kill us, we will do whatever you want us to do. Please. Please…”

“Shut up!” Xie Zhen shouts and then kicks them aside. “Don’t cry here. What are you begging mercy for? You are the men of the Xie Family. You must be macho! So what if the family makes you die? How can you be crying here?” Xie Zhen is like a furious lion, who is still giving off rich killing intent.

Then, Xie Zhen turns around to look at Xie Zhuolian and gives an amicable smile.

“Zhuolian, don’t be affected by them. Since they made a mistake, they should be punished. Don’t think they are pitiful because they ask for mercy!”

“Yeah! Zhuolian, don’t be affected by them. Tell me, how do you think we should dispose of them?” Xie Jue stands up and says to her with a smile.

Xie Zhuolian tugs at her own clothes. “I…”

“Zhuolian, just say it boldly,” Xie Jue says laughingly. “I’m your grandpa. These things should be dealt with by me but after all, you know Gao Ge so you should give an explanation to him. No matter what decision you make, I will do it for you. It is up to you to kill them or break their four limbs.”

“Grandpa, in my opinion, they made a mistake but they don’t deserve to die…” Xie Zhuolian heaves a sigh and says with red eyes.

“Oh?” Xie Jue is dazed and asks, “Don’t they deserve to die?”

“No, Grandpa, Xie Shan and Xie Feng shouldn’t have leaked the information but now that the mistake was made, it is already too late no matter how we dispose of them. We may as well think of a remedy. After all, we cannot watch the Poison Sect make trouble for Gao Ge,” Xie Zhuolian speaks.

Xie Jue frowns and nods, “Zhuolian has made a good point. What do you think?”

“Yeah, Jue, the current priority is to deal with the Poison Sect. These two brats are actually insignificant.”

“Well… Jue, look, should we protect Gao Ge?”

Xie Zhuolian stares at Xie Jue too, her eyes full of expectations.

Xie Jue heaves a sigh and says, “Indeed. Gao Ge hands over the Book of Poison to our family, which is a big favor for us, but we do put him into trouble. How about this? Zhuolian, go and tell Gao Ge that the Xie Family is willing to undertake the responsibility and that he can come to our family. As long as he comes to our place, we will definitely protect him.”

Xie Zhuolian is quite surprised and even delighted. “Really? Grandpa, can we really do that?”

“Of course,” Xie Jue says with a smile.

Xie Zhen suddenly says, “Jue, I don’t think it is a good idea.”

Xie Zhuolian can’t help turning around to look at Xie Zhen.

Xie Jue is also a bit disgruntled. “Zhen, what do you mean?”

Xie Zhen coughs and hastens to say, “I’m not saying that we shouldn’t protect Gao Ge. Instead, I simply think if we do so, we will give the Poison Sect an excuse to make trouble for us. They must think that we are being unreasonable or even try to wreck the peace among the blessed spots. After all, Gao Ge stole their Book of Poison. And we choose to protect Gao Ge rather than hand him over.”

Xie Jue nods his head. “You are right too. What do you mean then?”

“Yeah. Granduncle, Gao Ge is a nice person!” Xie Zhuolian says in a hurry.

Xie Zhen takes a look at Xie Zhuolian and says with a smile, “Zhuolian, don’t worry. I mean we can let Gao Ge join our family. In this case, we will have a good reason to protect him. What do you say?”

“Well…” Xie Zhuolian slightly frowns.

“Yeah, Zhuolian. I think your granduncle’s idea is good. In this case, it becomes perfectly justifiable for us to protect Gao Ge. And our family is one of the blessed spots. He won’t suffer loss if he joins our family,” Xie Jue also says with a nod.

Xie Zhuolian is still pondering.

“Of course, if you can’t bear to deal with Xie Feng and Xie Shan, you can leave them to him when he arrives. Won’t it satisfy both sides?” Xie Jue continues.

Xie Zhuolian feels what her grandpa and the others said sounds quite reasonable…

Right at the moment, a deep sigh comes from outside, full of vicissitudes.

“What’s hard to dispose of? Zhuolian, since they all say that Xie Shan and Xie Feng deserve to die, just let them die.”

A grey-haired old man walks inside slowly holding a stick, followed by a middle-aged man.

“Dad?” Xie Jue and the others are all astonished.

“Great-grandpa?” Xie Zhuolian is dazed and hastens to go over to support the old man.

“You are too silly. How can you surpass them in terms of scheming?” The old man reaches out his hand to grab Xie Zhuolian’s arm with a cold smile on his face. “Zhuolian, listen to me. Since they all think that the two brats deserve to die, you should just let them die! Humph, you can wait and see whether they will do it or not! A group of old guys are deceiving a little girl. Shame on you!”

Xie Zhuolian is stupefied.

The great-grandpa has made himself clear.

So, her grandpa and the others are all acting and deceiving her?

How is it possible?

Xie Jue and the others are all embarrassed. They just look at each other and don’t know what to say.
