Qin Mei sat in silence for an hour before making a decision. She hesitated on whether she should inform Shen Yan about it, and she chose to do it.
She opened a drawer and took a strange triangular jade out, and said while injecting her divine energy into it. "Young miss, Yun Lintian is on his way to you… He knows everything."
As she finished her sentence, she slumped in her seat, looking at the ceiling in a daze. Her energy was completely drained whenever she thought of the potential destruction of the Mystic God Realm. She could only pray that such a thing wouldn't happen.
***
Mystic God Realm, the Shen Clan.
Inside a dilapidated courtyard at the edge of the Shen Clan manor, Wu Qingcheng sat on a stool with a haggard look. Her robe was messy, as well as her hair. Her eyes were full of sadness as she looked at her father, whose appearance was so decadent.
A year ago, both of them left the Azure World for the Divine Realm and finally arrived at the Mystic God Realm. Wu Qingcheng was so excited to see her mother, but the reality blew her mind away.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer mother was the daughter of the Mystic God Emperor, and her name was not Xuan Jinghua but rather Shen Yifei. Wu Qingcheng and her father could overlook the fake name, but not the fact she had married another man and even given birth to a son.
Moreover, Shen Yifei didn't want to admit the relationship between them at all and even wanted to get rid of them directly. If it wasn't for Shen Yan, Wu Qingcheng, and Wu Leiwei would become nothingness by now.
However, Wu Qingcheng wasn't a fool. She had been in business since she was young and knew there was no such a free thing in this world. Shen Yan must have an ulterior motive behind her action.
Unfortunately, Wu Qingcheng tried her best to resist, but her profound strength was no different from an ant in front of her. Shen Yan used a direct method to get information about Yun Lintian from her.
It was at that moment Wu Qingcheng knew what Shen Yan's goal was.
"I'm sorry." Wu Liwei, who lost his usual majestic appearance, looked at her daughter apologetically. If he didn't insist on finding his wife…No, his ex-wife, his daughter, wouldn't have to face this situation.
"What's the use of saying it now?" Wu Qingcheng sighed and said. "I am now sorry for my junior brother. I have implicated him."
Knowing Yun Lintian's personality, Wu Qingcheng was certain he would come here after knowing her situation. She wanted to tell him to leave her but had no way to contact him.
She looked at her father and asked softly. "Are you better now?"
"Heh, heh." Wu Liwei let out a dry chuckle and said. "I have been waiting to reunite with her for half of my life, and the result is like this. Who would have thought that everything was fake? The affection she showed me in those years was fake. Everything she did was for your junior brother."
The sorrow in Wu Liwei's heart couldn't be described in a word. He felt as if his heart was being dug out and smashed into pieces again and again. It was already a miracle that he could manage to retain his sanity.
"…" Wu Qingcheng looked at him silently. Although she often fought with him, she genuinely felt sad for him this time.
"It would be good if I came here alone… I regret it." Wu Liwei sighed and closed his eyes in pain.
At this moment, a young man walked into the courtyard and looked at them with a faint smile. This person possessed a good demeanor, but one could see the arrogance in his bones.
Wu Qingcheng's face turned cold upon seeing him. This young man was no other than her "half-brother," Shan Lou.
Facing her cold gaze, Shan Lou said leisurely. "My dear sister and uncle, both of you should dress up and prepare for the clan gathering. Your current appearances are not pleasant to look at. I'm afraid Grandpa will scold you two."
He paused for a moment and continued. "Of course, you're not going with an identity of my mother's daughter and husband, but a servant. I see that both of you have nothing much to do. So, I found a cleaning job for you… Don't worry. The salary is not bad. Two low-graded Divine Stones. How about it? Not bad, right?"
Wu Qingcheng gnashed her teeth in anger upon hearing this. Even though it wasn't the first time Shan Lou did this, she could never hold her anger back.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Leave." Wu Liwei glanced at Shan Lou and said in a hoarse voice. "My strength is not good as you, but do you believe I have a way to hurt you?"
Shan Lou looked at Wu Liwei with an interesting smile. "Why don't you show me, uncle? I really want to see how a dog fights."
"Bastard!" Wu Qingcheng roared, and her aura surged. Just as she was about to rush toward Shan Lou, a female voice suddenly resounded from a distance.
"That's enough!"
Shan Lou frowned slightly and turned to look at the newcomer with a smile. "Why are you here, Sister Yan?"
The newcomer was no other than Shen Yan. She stared at Shan Lou coldly and said. "Get out before I change my mind."
Facing Shen Yan's aggressive stance, Shan Lou didn't seem to care about it. He chuckled and said. "Hehe. Why are you so mad, Sister Yan? I'm just teasing these two dogs for fun. There's nothing wrong with it, right?"
Boom!
Suddenly, Shen Yan's aura burst, and Shan Lou was caught off guard. He was directly sent flying out of the courtyard and crashed to the ground with a thud.
Shen Yan looked at him coldly and said. "Get lost."
"You…" Shan Lou was so furious but couldn't fight back as his strength was inferior. He could only glare at Wu Qingcheng and Wu Liwei angrily. "You two just wait!"
As he spoke, he quickly got up and rushed out.
"Heh. I don't know why Young Miss Shen came to our humble abode this time?" Wu Qingcheng glanced at Shen Yan and sneered. "Don't tell me you want to treat us well so you can use this excuse to save your life when my junior brother comes?"
