“Propose a marriage..."
On the White Tiger Clan’s side, Yan Yu looked stupefied at the smiling Yan Hua.
"How about it? Should Grandpa do it for you? You see, you are born with a natural weak body. I have also discussed with your parents that it would be best if you find a wife who is a Priest or a doctor in the future. But although that little girl of the Vermillion Bird Clan is not a Priest or a doctor, she seems to be a talented Pharmacist. If she accompanied you in the future, your parents and I can rest assured.” Yan Hua showed an exceptionally kind smile.
Yan Yu swallowed his saliva.
"Grandpa."
"Hmm?"
"I think that by doing this, I'll die a bit faster."
"..."
"That... The Vermillion Bird around Little Xiao is very possessive."
"Don’t you have White Tiger?”
“And... there is also her younger brother...”
“Younger brother? Is Shen Yanxiao not the youngest child of the Vermillion Bird Clan? Where did this younger brother come from?”
“She picked him up.”
“Picked him up? Oh... but what does that got to do with you being betrothed to her?"
“That younger brother... was quite intimate to Shen Yanxiao."
"Oh, little boy, it's just a bit of a sister complex. It's also normal. It’s because Shen Yanxiao had picked him up, a chick mentality is understandable."
"But her younger brother has a special skill."
"What is it?"
"Tearing people off with his bare hands..."
"..."
"..."
"Would he also tear a brother-in-law?"
"If he tears me off before getting married, am I still regarded as his brother-in-law?"
"..."
"Grandpa! Grandpa, don't faint! Grandpa! Somebody, come!"
...
That night, right after the crisis of the Vermillion Bird Clan, something extraordinary happened in the other four great clans. Yet for the Vermillion Bird Clan, this night was a night of suffering.
Shen Yanxiao with Shen Feng and Shen Ling stood in the basement and looked at Shen Duan, Shen Yue and Shen Yifeng who were detained behind the iron bars.
Shen Duan was still in a coma, Shen Yifeng, who had a pale face was lying down at the foot of the wall. It was only Shen Yue who was scared and trembling, stubbornly clinging on the the iron bars, and looking at Shen Feng who was outside of the iron cage with a tears and snot on his face.
"Father! I was wrong! I shouldn't have been confused. I shouldn't have been disrespectful to you. Please spare me this time. I won't dare to do it again!" Shen Yue broke into tears. He was now a prisoner and the shadow of his past graceful self couldn’t be seen anymore.
Shen Feng looked at his beloved son. Today, although he knew that this son of his had previously plotted to kill him and seize the Clan Head position of the Vermillion Bird Clan with Shen Duan, in his heart, he still could not bear seeing his current appearance.
"Grandpa, you must go back and rest. You still need to recuperate your body." Shen Yanxiao was not a fool. She knew that even though Shen Duan and Shen Yue had done something so vicious, in Shen Feng's heart, they were still his precious sons.
Pitying his sons was making his heart suffer even more.
Shen Yanxiao did not want Shen Feng to go through all this.
Shen Feng shook his head.
"I won't go. I want to listen. I must listen to Shen Duan, this beast. What exactly did he do that year? How did he kill his blood-related brothers?"
Shen Yanxiao was helpless and could only comply with Shen Feng. She let a servant bring a chair and made Shen Feng sit down.
Shen Ling stood beside Shen Feng and looked after of hm.
Shen Yanxiao went forward to the iron bars and looked at the crying Shen Yue.
"Put away your disgusting face. I will ask you and you will answer. If you dare to conceal things in the slightest, I’ll immediately make your head roll on the ground." Shen Yanxiao stared coldly at Shen Yue. In her cold eyes, there was no sympathy nor distress, as if the man before her was not her uncle, but a stranger.
