In the Wang Family living room.

At this moment, Wang Yongshan was working on details of the auction with his three sons. The old housekeeper hurriedly walked in.

“What’s wrong,LaoGuo, why does your face look so ugly?” Looking at the old housekeeper who walked in hastily, Wang Yongshan couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.LaoGuo had been a housekeeper for the Wang family for most of his life. He was also Wang Yongshan’s confidant. He was always cautious and careful in his work and kept the City Lord’s mansion in good order. Wang Yongshan was very satisfied with his housekeeper. However, seeing his housekeeper’s rare expression of panic at this time, Wang Yongshan felt the situation was a little strange.

“City Lord, something has happened. Young Master Jiang killed Yuzhu, Sixth Miss’s personal maid, and fed the body to those Spirit Insects.” Looking at Wang Yongshan, the old housekeeper narrated the events with a white face.

“What? He killed people and fed them to the insects?” Hearing this, the three Masters of the Wang family were also shocked.

“Yes, yes.” Nodding, the old housekeeper told Wang Yongshan and the sons the whole story.

After listening to the narration, Wang Yongshan’s face directly darkened. “This rebellious daughter, rebellious daughter! What was she doing going there? Tell her to come here! Tell her to come here to me!”

“Father, calm down, calm down.” Stepping forward, the Second Son hurriedly supported his father and helped him sit down.

“Father, don’t be angry. I’ll go see Sixth Sister in a while, talk to her properly, and make her behave. I think I will get Zhang Hui and Zhang Yan to help me persuade Sixth Sister as well.” Looking at his old father who was very furious, the Third Son also pacified their father.

“This Jiang Xu was also too much. Sixth Sister is also an Elder. He is so good at not giving her any face.” Speaking of this, the Eldest Son frowned, feeling that Jiang Xu was a little too arrogant.

“Eldest Brother, that’s not the way to say it, is it? If there was a Spiritual Mortal Realm cultivator pointing fingers in front of you, would you be willing to listen to a lesson?” Looking at his Big Brother, the Third Son asked in amusement.

“DIt, ikE ZQgEa ZQtEIb Qt PkYIwV’t ZQgEa FkwE.

“This…” Hearing his Third brother’s words, the Eldest Brother’s face became even more ugly. Liu Mufeng once personally told Feng’erand the five brothers that to him everyone in the Wang family was a stranger. This sentence, the Eldest Brother also knew.

“I really don’t know what kind of sins I made in my last life to give birth to such a stupid daughter. She is a cultivator in Spiritual Mortal Realm and dares to go to a cultivator of Spiritual King Realm and talk to him about rules. Is her head filled with mud?” Roaring out, Wang Yongshan smashed a tea cup in anger.

“City Lord, the Sixth Miss, Young Master Zhang, and Young Lady Zhang ask to see you.” Walking into the door, a guard whispered.

“Tell her to go away! Tell her to go away, I don’t have time to see her.” Roaring at the guard, Wang Yongshan smashed the table with one palm.

“This, this…” Seeing the City Lord’s furious appearance, the guard knelt on the ground, not daring to even breathe.

“Father, Father, you have to do justice for your daughter! That little bastard Jiang Xu killed my maid and fed her to the insects.” While crying, Wang Yumei barged into the hall with her two children.

“You deserve it, get out of here! I don’t want to see you!” Wang Yongshan said angrily, glaring at his daughter ferociously.

“Father!”

“Leave! Get out of the Wang family, go wherever you like, don’t embarrass me here anymore.” Pointing to the door, Wang Yongshan roared loudly.

At that, Zhang Hui hurriedly stepped forward. “Grandpa, don’t be angry. I will watch Mother and won’t let her make you angry again.”

“Yes, Grandpa, we have come all the way. If you don’t let us live here, where should we live?” Looking at her grandfather, Zhang Yan beseeched aggrievedly. She realized that between her mother and Jiang Xu, her grandfather must be on Jiang Xu’s side.

Looking at his grandson and granddaughter, Wang Yongshan snorted coldly. “If you don’t want to move out of the Wang family, then keep a good eye on this rebellious daughter for me. Don’t let her step out of the courtyard and don’t let her go to Mufeng’s courtyard again. If you give me any more foolishness, you three will all leave together.”

“Yes, yes, this grandchild knows.” Nodding, Zhang Hui and Zhang Yan hurriedly responded.

“Father, I…”

“Okay, don’t say anything, go back to your own yard. I don’t want to see you.” Wang Yongshan coldly said and turned his face away and stopped looking at his daughter.

Seeing such a heartless father, Wang Yumei gritted her teeth and had to reluctantly follow her two children away.

A few days later, the housekeeper came to Liu Mufeng’s yard again. “Young Master Jiang.” Looking at Jiang Xu who was feeding the rabbits in the yard, the old housekeeper saluted respectfully.

“Housekeeper, what’s the matter?” Turning his head sideways, Jiang Xu looked at the visitor.

“Young Master Jiang, someone from the Liu family in Shuangyang Town is here. They want to see Young Master Mufeng. This old slave told them that Young Master Mufeng is in seclusion, but the Liu family didn’t believe it. They are saying that our Wang family is holding Young Master Mufeng back and won’t let them see him. They kept insisting to meet Young Master Mufeng and when we refused them entry, they started spreading rumors standing near the gate that our Wang family is holding their Liu family members hostage. What does Young Master Jiang suggest we do here?”

Looking at the embarrassed housekeeper, Jiang Xu snorted coldly. “Bring them all here, I’ll meet them first.”

“Yes, Young Master Jiang.” In response, the housekeeper turned and left.

Putting all the chickens and rabbits that were bought today into the shed, Liu San came up to Jiang Xu’s side and said, “Young Master Jiang, the people of the Liu family are all rascals. They have been in Black Dragon City for ten days, and they have been making trouble every day in the city, saying that the City Lord has detained the people of their Liu family and would not let them see them. Saying that the City Lord is hypocritical, when Young Master was a young child, the City Lord didn’t care for him at all, but now that Young Master has the ability, he has come to snatch people from the Liu family. Anyway, all kinds of unpleasant rumors and gossip have been spread in the city and everyone has heard of it.” Speaking of the Liu family, Liu San felt an onset of headache.

Listening to this, Jiang Xu frowned. “The Liu family is being so rambunctious. How come Grandpa and the three Uncles are letting the Liu family do as they please?” Jiang Xu was very surprised by this.

Liu San smiled wryly. “No matter how foolish the Liu family are acting, they are still Young Master’s Grandfather and Uncles. If Young Master doesn’t speak against them, it is impossible for the City Lord to deal with the Liu family.”

Jiang Xu understood as he heard this. The housekeeper also came to ask himself about this matter, in fact, he had also tested Mufeng’s attitude towards the Liu family members in passing. If Mufeng cared a lot about the Liu family members, the Wang family could only hold back, but, if Mufeng didn’t care about these people, then, the Wang family would never be soft-hearted.

“Go, invite Grandpa over, let him accompany me to meet these Liu family members.”

“Yes, Young Master Jiang.” In response, Liu San turned around and left.

After adding the fodder, Liu San’s nine subordinates walked out of the yard consciously and stood on guard outside the courtyard. After returning to Black Dragon City, Liu San’s subordinates were assigned to Liu Mufeng. They were now Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu’s bodyguards, responsible for keeping them safe. Therefore, these people would help Jiang Xu buy chickens and rabbits and stand guard every day during day. At night, Jiang Xu would let them each go back to cultivate, however, Liu San would still leave four guards to take turns on night duty.

In a short time, Wang Yongshan arrived at Jiang Xu’s courtyard with his three sons. Jiang Xu made a pot of spiritual tea and entertained the father and three sons to enjoy tea in the yard. Jiang Xu had steeped the tea with spiritual water, so the tea was very rich in spiritual energy. To the outside world, Jiang Xu would say that this tea was brought back from the Middle Continent. So, everyone believed it. For the Wang family, it was not easy to drink such a cup of spiritual tea from the Middle Continent, because after Mufeng came back, most of the time he was in seclusion. Jiang Xu was a Dual, so they naturally had to avoid suspicion and couldn’t casually sit with the Elders to drink tea. Hence there were not many opportunities.

“XiaoXu, in fact, the Liu family had come to the Wang family to make a fuss several times. I told them that Mufeng was in seclusion and refining pills, but none of them are willing to believe it. I really have no choice.” Having said that, Wang Yongshan sighed lightly. If anyone else dared to make such a fuss in his Black Dragon City, he would have killed him long ago, but the Liu family was different after all. In any case, they were also Mufeng’s Grandfather and Uncles. If he rushed to deal with the Liu family, he was worried that his Grandson would be unhappy in his heart. And this might lead to differences in opinion, and the loss would outweigh the gain.

“Grandpa, don’t worry, I’ll deal with them later. I was also thinking of meeting them.” Jiang Xu smiled coldly. Mufeng grew up in the Liu family since he was a child. If Mufeng took action against the Liu family, the world would definitely say that Mufeng was ungrateful and did not care about his family. Therefore, Jiang Xu decided to take care of the Liu family before his lover left seclusion. In this way, his lover would not be embarrassed, nor would he have to bear a name for being unfilial. As for Jiang Xu, name and fame had long been irrelevant to him. The only thing he cared about now was Mufeng. As long as Mufeng was happy, he would be happy as well.

After about a cup of tea, the Liu family was brought into Jiang Xu’s small courtyard by the housekeeper. This time, the Liu family was very complete, including Liu Mufeng’s Grandfather, Liu Mufeng’s four Uncles, Liu Mufeng’s First Cousin Liu Cheng, Fourth Cousin Liu Zhen’er, Sixth Cousin Liu Yi, and Eighth Cousin Liu Shanshan. (Note: Except for Liu Muyan, everyone else died in the Cang Mountain secret realm.)

“In-laws!” Seeing Wang Yongshan, Liu Renyi, the head of the Liu family, arched his hand towards Wang Yongshan.

“Liu family, please sit down.” With that, Wang Yongshan waved his hand, took out five chairs from his storage ring, and brought them to the Liu family.

“Many thanks to the Wang family.” After speaking, Liu Renyi sat down with his four sons.
