179: Without destruction, there is no construction. Killing people with words
“Creak!”
Along with that seemingly hearty laughter, the sound of a door opening came from within.
“Whoosh!”
A group of people dressed as scholars entered in single file.
They seemed quite urgent, and as they entered the small door, they jostled each other, muttering complaints.
As soon as they entered, their gazes instantly locked onto Wen Zhao, who was as beautiful and delicate as Xizi.
“What are you doing here? Get out, you’re not welcome here!”
Seeing this, Wen Lie, like an enraged puppy, immediately appeared in front of Wen Zhao and the Old Swindler.
He glared at the uninvited guests.
Wen Zhao’s beautiful eyes also turned cold, glaring at these descendants of the Wen Family who had completely lost their integrity, bullied the weak, and engaged in schemes.
In the past, the Wen Saint Old Ancestor of the Wen Family, facing a great calamity, had passionately cried out to the heavens:
“Since ancient times, who has escaped death? Let my loyal heart illuminate the history books!”
He sacrificed his head and shed his blood.
That was the integrity and ambition a Saint of the Dao should possess.
But now, these people of the Wen Family, like blood-suckingwoodworms, constantly schemed for their own interests.
They had riddled the once glorious Saint Family with holes, leaving it precarious.
This time,
if not for the appearance of that peerless Young Master, perhaps the once incomparably glorious Wen Family would have long since collapsed.
How sorrowful and helpless.
This made Wen Zhao, in whose body the Wen Saint’s hot blood also flowed, run around crying out for action.
However, all who responded to her were ostracized and suppressed.
Even,
the matter of her accidentally inheriting the Old Ancestor’s Legacy and condensing Haoran Righteousness overnight was blurted out by the Wen Family Third Brother while he was drunk and bragging.
This attracted the covetousness of the Ouyang Family.
These shameless fellows even handed her over to the Ouyang Family.
This completely chilled the blood in Wen Zhao’s body.
She knew that if she wanted to restore the former glory of the Wen Saint Family, she had to break the old to establish the new.
She must crush thewoodworms and eradicate the rot.
Only then could the withered tree bloom again, injecting new vitality into this precarious ancient Family.
“Tsk tsk, what an ungrateful little white-eyed wolf.”
“To dare bark at the main Family!”
The Wen Family Third Brother squinted mockingly at Wen Lie.
This formerly timid boy had truly grown bold.
“You!”
Although Wen Lie had some cleverness, he was still a child after all.
He was provoked by a single sentence from the Wen Family Third Brother, his anger blazing, almost making him jump up and down.
“Wen Lie, step back and leave it to me.”
Wen Zhao’s voice was cold, without a trace of emotion.
She moved her lotus steps lightly.
She walked forward; although her figure was slender, like a weak willow swaying in the wind,
she possessed a remarkable Aura.
This made the eyes of Wen Shi, the head of the Wen Family, narrow slightly.
It seemed
that today’s Wen Zhao was truly a little different from the Xiao Hu she was before.
In her calm and intelligent water-like eyes, a confident gleam flickered.
“Cough… Wen Zhao Yatou, last time, it was our fault. Today, we specially came to welcome you and your brother back to the Family.”
Wen Shi, the head of the Wen Family and a refined middle-aged man, said with a forced smile.
“Heh, I’m afraid you already sent people to monitor this place before. You couldn’t wait after Young Master Pan An left.”
Wen Zhao remained unmoved, speaking with disdain.
“You are as clever as ever.”
“That’s right, Pan An offended the Saint of the Yin Yang Sect, and our Wen Family doesn’t want to get involved in trouble.”
Wen Shi chuckled.
Although,
in Tian Que City, the legendary Young Master who single-handedly annihilated a Family was widely discussed,
after all, this Young Master had cut off an arm of the Yin Yang Sect’s Second Holy Son.
Therefore, they immediately extinguished any thought they had of Li Luo.
“Heh heh, you are truly something.”
“He is Grandfather Wen Xuan’s disciple, you probably even kicked Grandfather Wen Xuan out of the Wen Family for the sake of avoiding trouble, didn’t you?”
“Even for us siblings,”
Wen Zhao gave a self-deprecating smile, “we couldn’t be exempted, could we?”
Wen Zhao’s eyes gleamed.
Her intelligent demeanor made the refined middle-aged man, Wen Shi, the head of the Wen Family, feel a chill run down his spine.
This was also why the current Wen Family elders disliked Wen Zhao, this Yatou.
She was exceptionally clever and astute.
Yet, she came from a collateral branch of the Wen Family.
Hoo, hoo.
Hearing this, Wen Zhao felt Wen Lie’s breathing behind her become slightly heavy, like an angry young bull seeing a red cloth.
He knew his sister would never make baseless conjectures.
What she said was almost always true.
That’s why Wen Lie was so enraged.
“Heh heh, Wen Zhao, let me give you a piece of advice. Sometimes, being too clever isn’t a good thing.”
Wen Shi sneered.
Although he didn’t directly respond to Wen Zhao’s words,
how could an intelligent person not know that Wen Zhao, this Xiao Hu, had guessed most of their actions without leaving her house?
She was simply a Prodigy.
“Since that’s the case, let’s lay our cards on the table.”
“The Literary Sage Inheritance on you is the treasure of our Wen Family. Hand it over, and then cripple your own Confucian Dao.”
“From now on, you will have no relation to our Wen Family.”
Wen Shi said with a cold expression.
Since Wen Zhao had seen through them,
they might as well stop pretending.
The dagger was revealed.
“You are simply a bunch of demons!”
Wen Lie clenched his fists, gnashing his teeth.
“Ah haha… powerless rage. I suggest we cripple this kid later, I don’t like his gaze.”
The Wen Family Second Master’s smiling face carried a hint of ferocity.
“It’s only right and proper to take back what belongs to our Wen Family.”
The Wen Family Third Brother, who had once drunkenly boasted about the Literary Sage Inheritance, now spoke with righteous indignation.
His eyes burned as he looked at Wen Zhao, as if seeing a mountain of gold.
“Heh heh, handing over the Literary Sage Inheritance is impossible.”
“However, with youwoodworms in the Wen Family, I won’t return either.”
“Therefore, I’ve decided to clear you all out, and then restore the glory of the Wen Family.”
Wen Zhao’s eyes sparkled.
In her fair hand, she still held the character Li Luo had just written.
At this moment, her ink-colored dress fluttered in the wind, and holding the book, she exuded a chilling killing intent.
“Ah haha, just you?”
“Wen Zhao Xiao Hu, it’s not that Second Uncle looks down on you, but you’re not qualified enough!”
“I am a Divine Travel Realm Cultivator, destroying you is like crushing an ant.”
The Wen Family Second Master, Wen Long, said with a ferocious expression.
He was the most boorish and bloodthirsty of the three direct line brothers of the Wen Family.
He had completely abandoned the Confucian Dao and cultivated the Martial Dao instead.
Yet, when facing the people of the Ouyang Family, he was timid and subservient.
Today, however, when facing someone weaker than himself, he struck with full force.
“A scumbag who forgets his ancestors, come and try me.”
Wen Zhao hooked her finger, a look of provocation on her face.
In her mind, she recalled that peerless figure, who was so calm and collected when facing powerful enemies.
“You’re asking for death!”
Boom.
In an instant, Wen Long lunged forward.
He curled his fingers into a claw and reached for Wen Zhao, intending to crush her delicate shoulder and make this Xiao Hu regret her sharp tongue.
“Om.”
At this moment,
Wen Zhao calmly unfolded a piece of paper.
On it, a single character was written: ‘Ruthless’!
Boom.
In an instant, Wen Long felt a fierce, murderous Aura rush towards him, as if transforming into a ferocious tiger, directly pouncing and attacking him.
“Save…”
Before he could even cry out the word “me,”
Pfft!
His body was directly torn into pieces by the ruthless Qi contained within the character!
