His gaze, however, carried a chill, and even when he looked at Yan Xiyu, it was as if he were looking at a dead thing, a corpse.

"You shouldn’t have touched my Achilles’ heel."

Yan Xiyu cursed him. Although he sarcastically retorted, he didn’t truly take it seriously in his heart; he just thought this person was ridiculous, practically a fool.

But at this moment, when Yan Xiyu mentioned his wife master with seemingly suggestive words, he truly became angry.

When he was genuinely angry, he didn’t become fierce; instead, his expression turned cold, certainly not friendly nor expressive, just a very cold demeanor.

He slowly took a step forward.

"It seems you truly wish for death."

Suddenly, he picked up the teacup from the table, and with a bang, the teacup first hit Yan Xiyu on the forehead, then shattered on the ground with a crash.

Yan Xiyu only felt a pain on her forehead, reached out to touch it, the crimson stinging her eyes.

She glared, "You hit me?"

"Hit?"

Yue Ning seemed to savor the meaning of this word, looking at Yan Xiyu without expression.

"The word ’hit’ doesn’t quite fit. If you replace ’hit’ with ’kill’, that would be more appropriate."

The next moment, his figure flickered, and with a bang, Yan Xiyu’s body flew backward.

This sudden change shocked everyone, even the Second Elder hadn’t expected this "Young Master" to actually be a practitioner!

And just as things were escalating, a servant suddenly came to report.

Apparently, someone had sent in a name card, and on this card was only a surname, "Dong."

But Yue Ning already knew who the visitor was, and suddenly felt a surge of joy in his heart.

...

Dong Huiying arrived by carriage, having stealthily infiltrated the Qin Mansion last night to avoid prying eyes, but now she was visiting openly.

She specifically brought many "gifts," called gifts, as meeting tokens, but they were actually little snacks prepared for Yue Ning.

This time she came over, besides Liu Yan, who belonged to the Ghost Women Soldiers, acting as the coachman, she only brought Yixuan. Primarily considering that arriving with the whole family might lead to excessive speculation.

Yixuan had plans in mind, traveling light this time, so fewer people were brought along. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

The two waited patiently outside the mansion until a servant came to guide them.

Dong Huiying and Yixuan entered the Qin family; they hadn’t delivered their card to the Second Elder but specifically indicated it was to meet the ’Young Master.’

"What’s this?"

As they neared the conference hall, Dong Huiying was momentarily stunned, for she saw a female corpse... ahem! Not a corpse, still alive, but in a truly sorry state.

Covered in blood, her face full of spite as she lay on the ground.

She scrutinized a bit more, her expression turning peculiar.

Indeed, it’s a small world for enemies to meet.

Previously, Yan Xiyu had threatened to destroy her entire family, leaving a deep impression on Dong Huiying.

Yue Ning’s eyes gleamed, and he darted forward, almost wanting to hold his wife master’s hand if not for the fact that others were present.

Dong Huiying laughed, "I brought you some goodies."

Yue Ning’s eyes brightened once again.

"Qin Xuan, you’re courting death!"

At this time, Yan Xiyu crawled up from the ground, viciously spitting a mouthful of blood, then glaring malevolently at Liang Yuening.

Yixuan instinctively glanced at Fifth Brother, noticing an unusual harshness on his face.
