A Family of Hopeless Romantics, Except for the Evil Little Junior Brother-Chapter 67: I Forgive You

"Kill!!"

"I'm going to kill her!!"

"Young Miss, please calm down, she’s a Mount Shushan disciple now."

"So what if she’s a Mount Shushan disciple? That bh humiliated me and caused my father to lose his elder position. I will kill her!!"

Huang Peiying shouted angrily.

The maid tried to reason with her, "Young Miss, she’s a Mount Shushan disciple. According to sect rules, you’ll be executed too, and the whole family will be implicated."

"Then what, I just swallow this anger?"

The maid smirked slyly, "Miss, don’t forget where she comes from—a backwater village woman.

Just get someone to pose as mountain bandits, kill off her whole family, and the Young Miss will have her revenge."

Huang Peiying suddenly understood and lit up with joy:

"Great idea!"

".........."

Dafeng Village.

It had to be said, ever since Feng Liuli left,

the village had become a lot quieter.

But Feng Liuli’s family still lived on the outskirts of the village.

They were long used to it.

Under the night sky, a few shadows moved swiftly toward Dafeng Village.

"Kill! Leave no one alive."

"The village?"

"Not sure if they still have relatives inside, so wipe out the whole place!"

"Yes!!"

Not long after, five figures landed one after another at Feng Liuli’s house.

At that moment, Feng Liuli’s father, Ergouzi, was forging iron.

Her younger brothers, Wangcai and Fugui, were playing in the courtyard.

When they suddenly saw five people drop from the sky, they were all startled.

Before the five could even speak, several large hands burst out from the ground, dragging them all beneath it.

Moments later, the courtyard returned to its calm state.

The whole process took only a split second.

Suddenly appeared, then vanished.

As if nothing had ever happened.

Ergouzi and his two sons were stunned.

Ergouzi rubbed his eyes, thinking something was wrong with them.

“What the fk!?”

".........."

Elsewhere.

Li Xuanxiao quickly dealt with the five attackers.

He didn’t kill them, just tied them up.

He planned to hand them over to the sect, and had already used the Recording Stone to collect evidence of Huang Peiying hiring assassins.

With both physical evidence and witness statements, Huang Peiying and the entire Huang family would be implicated.

How despicable. Good thing I prepared twenty-one backup plans.

Family blessed by the heavens, my magic is boundless!!

You want to push Feng Liuli into darkness?

I won’t let you get your way.

Then Li Xuanxiao stomped his foot, casting the Soul Summoning Technique.

Moments later, the local land deity poked his head out.

“Greetings, Immortal, greetings, Immortal.”

Land deities, City Gods, and River Gods were all appointed by the imperial court.

Of course, many sects had the authority too—

Mount Shushan included.

Seeing a Mount Shushan disciple, this little land deity called him “Immortal” with every sentence.

"Did you remember what I told you?"

The land deity nodded repeatedly, “Yes, yes, Immortal, rest assured. I will do everything I can to protect this family from harm.”

Li Xuanxiao handed him a talisman, “Use this if anything happens. This is your payment.”

“To serve an Immortal is this humble god’s honor.”

“We’re all just helping each other. Just call me Daoist friend.”

“Humble god wouldn’t dare.”

The land deity pretended to accept the bag of spirit stones reluctantly.

He smiled and reached in, pulling out a sheet of paper. Upon closer inspection—

[Survey Questionnaire]

“Also fill out this survey while you’re at it.”

Li Xuanxiao’s voice came from nearby.

The land deity looked at the first question: “Your enemy is hanging onto a branch at the edge of a cliff, struggling to stay up. How would you make them fall?”

Step on them.Set the branch on fire.Pry their fingers off one by one.

Land Deity: (⊙o⊙)…

“.........”

Meanwhile, in the Alchemy Room.

Li Xuanxiao, piloting his external body, took a sip of Enlightenment Tea.

He had never actually left Mount Shushan.

After interacting with Xiao Ba, a creature with ancient spirit beast bloodline, Li Xuanxiao improved the External Body Technique.

He even formed a contract with Xiao Ba.

With a spirit beast contract, Li Xuanxiao could use Xiao Ba’s bloodline to perfect the technique.

Now, the external body resembled a severed tentacle of Xiao Ba.

Which meant the clone was now part of Li Xuanxiao’s own body.

Making it harder to tell real from fake—or rather, the fake was real.

The distance it could move had also increased.

Much safer for travel in the future.

Li Xuanxiao rubbed Xiao Ba’s little head with satisfaction.

Xiao Ba was gnawing on a cabbage.

Don’t underestimate that cabbage—cost a fortune.

With Xiao Ba around, Li Xuanxiao burned through materials much faster.

Even the precious resources he’d stockpiled were almost gone.

Looks like once this matter’s settled, it’s time to start a personal savings plan.

“Xiao Ba, when you’ve got time, let’s work on version twelve of the questionnaire.”

Xiao Ba suddenly froze.

Li Xuanxiao had already handed over a questionnaire.

“Remember, answer with your true heart. I’ll sense it otherwise.

Don’t worry, it’s just a regular questionnaire. Even if you answer wrong, it’s okay. No pressure.”

Li Xuanxiao smiled kindly.

Xiao Ba: ........

Why does it feel like one wrong answer means instant death?

“...........”

Not long after, the four assassins sent by Huang Peiying turned themselves in to Mount Shushan.

Why only four?

Because one had already died from poison.

According to a mysterious source, they could live if they confessed the mastermind at Mount Shushan.

Otherwise, without the antidote, death awaited.

Soon, Huang Peiying was summoned for direct confrontation.

Already feeling guilty, she completely collapsed when the Recording Stone evidence was produced.

It contained her entire plotting session with her maid.

Huang Peiying immediately collapsed to the ground.

This time, not only her, but the entire Huang family was dragged down.

Knowing it was over, Huang Peiying knelt in the main hall, begging Feng Liuli.

“Please, let me go, I was just blinded for a moment.

We were such good friends once, remember?

I even helped you before, don’t you remember?

I was just foolish. I deserve death, I deserve death!”

No one said a word.

Feng Liuli looked at her and couldn’t help but sigh and shake her head.

Huang Peiying clung to her hand, crying her eyes out.

“Liuli, as a cultivator, one must be generous. A prime minister’s mind should be as vast as the sea. Learning to forgive is a life lesson.”

An elder advised.

“The Huang family may not have achievements, but they’ve suffered too.

Now that Huang Peiying has done wrong, let merit cancel out the fault.

Liuli, give her a chance to turn over a new leaf.”

“Yes.” Someone agreed.

After a long pause, Feng Liuli opened her eyes again.

“Endless revenge leads nowhere. I forgive you.”

“Thank you... thank you, Liuli. We’re still friends, right? Thank you.”

Huang Peiying burst into tears of joy, clinging to Feng Liuli’s hand.

“I was really foolish, so stupid, really......”

Lu Ziyin smiled with relief.

Yes, this was still the Feng Liuli he knew.

He patted her shoulder gently and said softly:

“Giving someone else a chance is also giving yourself a chance. You did well, Liuli.”

In the next second, Feng Liuli pierced Huang Peiying’s chest with her sword.

“I forgave you. So you’ll forgive me too, right?”
