"Give me some strength! You know, that thing!"
Xu Ziyang took a step back, frowning slightly. At this moment, she had already recognized the people in front of her as the wife and sons of the village chief from the village where she had first arrived in this world, especially the fool who stood out prominently.
At this point, the disciples of the Xu family had already recognized Xu Ziyang and quickly blocked the village chief's wife and sons outside, loudly scolding them. The woman continued to lunge at Xu Ziyang with her arms flailing, and her two sons even pulled out short knives from their chests, trying to bypass the guards to slash at Xu Ziyang.
It turned out that after the village chief had chased after the Xu family and never returned, his wife and sons finally found the chief's body in the mountains. After weeping bitterly, they did not reflect on their own tyranny but instead blamed the Xu family for everything.
After reporting to the higher-level family managers, the family did not care about such trivial matters and directly appointed a new village chief, depriving them of their privileges. This woman, being quite fierce, refused to leave her house and was forcibly driven out by the new village chief. As a result, she blamed everything on the Xu family, harboring deep resentment, and decided to take her family straight to the capital city to cry at the Xu family's ancestral gate.
Xu Ziyang rolled her eyes. She had already guessed the reason for the situation and felt a deep disgust towards this family. She flicked her sleeves and walked into the gate, unwilling to look at them again.
"Stop..."
The woman shouted three words and suddenly froze, her face showing shock, which then turned to fear. She realized that Xu Ziyang had walked directly into the family's gate, and the disciples guarding the gate even respectfully bowed to her. As a minor figure, she also had a minor figure's wisdom. Her husband, though just a small village chief, had been enough to dominate the village, and she had been particularly fierce, making people kneel at her command.
But her husband had never entered the family's gate. Now, seeing Xu Ziyang walk into the gate so casually, she realized that Xu Ziyang must have a high status within the family. In that case, wouldn't it be as easy as squashing an ant to kill her? Thinking about how her husband, with just a little power, could act tyrannically in the village and treat lives as grass, she felt even more fear when she looked at Xu Ziyang's back.
She reached out to pull her sons and turned to leave, but was stopped by the stern voice of the outer hall manager:
"Stop! The Xu family is not a place you can come and go as you please!"
"We made a mistake, we came to the wrong place!" the woman stammered, her feet moving quietly. The manager was extremely angry, seeing their completely different attitudes before and after, and felt even more disgust. These people had caused a commotion at the family's gate, and everyone on the street had seen it clearly. Moreover, the family's higher-ups were in a bad mood, so the manager was not about to let those who caused trouble off easily. He waved his hand and shouted at the disciples at the gate:
"Seize them and throw them into the prison!"
"Unjust! Sir, we won't dare again, sir..."
The woman clung to her sons and shouted fiercely again. The manager's face turned green, and he angrily shouted at his disciples:
"What are you waiting for? Do I have to do it myself?"
The disciples, hearing the manager's command, immediately rushed forward. Seeing the woman and her sons struggling fiercely, they struck them unconscious and dragged them to the family's prison.
At this moment, Xu Ziyang had already returned to her parents' residence, reported her safety, and hurriedly returned to her own quarters in the outer hall. She felt her cultivation continuously improving, but her realm was very unstable, and the true essence in her body was becoming restless. Therefore, she did not go to see the family patriarch or stay to talk with her parents. Instead, she hurriedly returned to her quarters, hung a sign indicating she was in seclusion, and entered her cultivation.
Xu Haoran and others were the first to receive the news of Xu Ziyang's return. The gloom in their hearts finally lifted a bit. They suddenly stood up and did not send anyone to summon Xu Ziyang but personally ran to the door of her quarters. As they walked towards Xu Ziyang's quarters, they thought:
"Yan'er has returned, and she can create top-tier first-grade talismans for the family. According to Xu Wenli and Xu Yundong, she can also arrange the talismans into formations, increasing their power several times. This will give the Xu family another means of self-protection."
When they arrived at Xu Ziyang's quarters, they saw the sign indicating she was in seclusion. Xu Haoran's heart tightened, thinking:
"Could Yan'er be injured? This child, if she is injured, she should have told me so the family could give her better medicinal pills for treatment!"
At this moment, Xu Ziyang's parents were also worried about their daughter and came to her quarters. Seeing their eldest brother and several brothers standing outside their daughter's door, their hearts sank, thinking something must have happened to Xu Ziyang. They hurried to Xu Haoran and asked anxiously:
"Brother, is there something wrong with Yan'er?"
Xu Haoran turned to see Xu Haoguang and asked urgently, "Did Yan'er see the eleventh brother after she returned?"
Xu Haoguang nodded and replied, "Yes, she hurriedly saw him for a moment and said she needed to go into seclusion."
"Is she not injured?" Xu Haoran asked seriously.
"No!" Xu Haoguang shook his head.
"That's good!" Xu Haoran sighed in relief. "Could it be that Yan'er is about to break through?"
Just as they were talking, they saw the outer hall manager hesitantly approaching, wanting to speak but closing his mouth. Xu Haoran glared at him and said impatiently:
"What is it? Speak quickly."
The outer hall manager hurried forward two steps, bowed, and said, "Patriarch, I just caught four people at the gate. After questioning them, they are from the same village as Xu Ziyang."
At this point, he glanced at Xu Haoguang and his wife. Xu Haoran frowned slightly and looked at Xu Haoguang with a questioning gaze.
Xu Haoguang was also surprised, not knowing who from the village had found the family, so he turned and asked:
"Did they say who they are?"
