The long-bearded scholar sighed and said, "Young Master, Cui Xuanyu didn't die this time. She will definitely guess that we deliberately stopped the Cui family from rescuing us. Now we should think about how to deal with her accountability!"

The young man's face was distorted and his expression was as gloomy as water.

"Does she have evidence? So what if she guessed it? I am also a descendant of the Cui family, and the only male in the main line of the Cui family. Would she dare to attack me without evidence?"

The scholars below had helpless and disappointed looks on their faces, and they secretly sighed in their hearts that their young master was still too young and took his status as a direct male heir too seriously!

The huge Cui family does rely on the inheritance of the main line. Those who have always been in charge of the Cui family are the direct descendants of the Cui family, but it is not the direct descendants of the Cui family who have the final say. The elders of the Cui family branches also have a great say.

If the main vein has no successor, then just continue from the nearest branch.

What's more, Cui Xuanyu's maternal family is the Li family, which is also one of the four major families. How could a mere boy born to a lowly woman like him shake them!

The two looked at each other and became more disappointed.

Even if an illegitimate child like Cui Shanyuan had a chance, the probability of him inheriting the Cui family was too small. They chose him just to give him a chance to make a name for himself.

But now it seems that the attempt to assassinate Cui Xuanyu has failed, and there will probably be no chance again in the future.

While they were discussing, outside the Cui family mansion, Yun Ying brought Cui Xuanyu and Meng Chen to the door. Yun Ying was in a fierce and aggressive manner, and the evil and murderous aura on his body condensed and flowed, forming a bloody evil vision behind him.

This elephant is dressed in blood-red armor, with its hair tied up high and fluttering in the wind. It holds an extremely sharp spear in its hand and stands tall, like a god of war descending to the earth, awe-inspiring.

The Cui Mansion received the news soon, and three slightly fat middle-aged men ran out in a panic, with sweat on their foreheads.

Yun Ying retreated silently to the back. Meng Chen couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. She was so aggressive just now, as if she was going to massacre the Cui family in Beiyang City. Why was she retreating now?

Beside him, Cui Xuanyu stepped forward, and the three men immediately came forward and bowed to greet him.

Cui Xuanyu's eyes were cold, and he said in a chilling voice, "I have been missing for so many days, why didn't the Cui family send anyone to rescue me? Are you three not satisfied with being managers in Beiyang City and want to seize the position of head of the Cui family?"

The three of them fell to their knees with a plop. The fat steward in the lead said in fear, "Miss, it's not that we don't want to save you, it's Young Master Yuanshan... He said that it's impossible for you to escape back, so we can just search for a while around Beiyang City. If so, he will give us some preferential treatment after he takes over as the head of the Cui family."

Meng Chen sneered in his heart. These three guys tried to clear themselves of all charges, but in fact they might have participated in the murder of Cui Xuanyu. The little preferential treatment they mentioned could not be just a little, otherwise they would not dare to take the risk. Now it depends on how Cui Xuanyu will deal with them.
Cui Xuanyu looked indifferent and said in a cold voice: "You three are trying to murder the legitimate heirs, so you should be killed. Commit suicide and your families will be safe."

After Cui Xuanyu finished speaking, he walked around them and entered the Cui family mansion. Yun Ying followed him, and Meng Chen also hurriedly followed.

After Cui Xuanyu passed by, the three of them gritted their teeth and slapped themselves on the forehead, shattering their souls and killing them.

Meng Chen was shocked. These three people should be the Cui family's stewards in Beiyang City, controlling the entire Beiyang City. Their status and position were even comparable to the Ji family in Xuantian City. But in Cui Xuanyu's place, only one word was needed to force them to commit suicide.

He looked at Cui Xuanyu who entered the Cui family mansion with a complicated expression. Did he underestimate this woman before?

Meng Chen followed after a moment of hesitation. No matter what, he was really grateful to her for saving his life, so she couldn't repay him with evil, right?

Moreover, from the fact that she concealed her identity in front of Yun Ying, it can be seen that her attitude towards herself is still very friendly.

Meng Chen quickly followed them to the inner courtyard, where a young man and eight other people came out anxiously to greet them. "Sister, you are finally back. I heard that you were missing a few days ago, and I was very worried! Now that I see you back, I am overjoyed."

The young man looked 30% similar to Cui Xuanyu. As he spoke, he came up to Cui Xuanyu with a worried and concerned look on his face. I guess he was Cui Xuanyu's younger brother Cui Yuanshan.

"Snapped!"

With a crisp slap sound, Cui Yuanshan was slapped to the ground by Cui Xuanyu. His face was swollen and a bloody slap mark was left on his face.

The faces of the eight people behind Cui Yuanshan suddenly changed. Four of them stepped forward, their aura suddenly bursting out, releasing the pressure of the Void Refining Realm with a menacing momentum.

The person in the front was a man who looked to be in his thirties. He looked stern and said in a cold voice, "Ms. Cui, no matter what, Yuanshan is still your brother. Do you really not care about the relationship between brothers?"

Cui Xuanyu raised his eyes, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his narrow and long phoenix eyes: "Yun Niang, kill him."

Yun Ying immediately stepped forward and shot out a spiritual light from his hand, which lightly passed over the man's neck. The next moment, blood splattered and the man's head rolled to the ground.

When everyone saw this scene, they screamed with pale faces and dodged to the side.

Cui Yuanshan was originally full of anger, but when he saw his men being killed, his eyes widened instantly.

"You...sister, you all work for the Cui family, why did you want to kill him? And he is my subordinate, why did you touch him?"

Cui Xuanyu sneered: "You guys want to kill me, the direct descendant of the Cui family! Cui Fengcheng and the others have confessed. It was you who told them not to rescue me, right?"

Cui Yuanshan said angrily: "Impossible!"

After he cried out in surprise, he quickly calmed down: "Sister, the three of them are the stewards of Beiyang City, and their status is respected. How can my brother have the right to order them around?"

Cui Xuanyu snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "They should have already cut themselves off from the door by now. They have done it. There is nothing to deny. I don't want to hear your excuses."

As she spoke, she looked at the monks behind Cui Yuanshan.

Cui Yuanshan noticed their gazes and his eyes were full of fear.

"Sister, what are you going to do?" Cui Xuanyu slapped Cui Yuanshan, who was sitting on the ground, and knocked him to the ground.

"Don't call me sister, it's disgusting. A bastard like you, I'm already doing you a great favor by letting you return to the Cui family. I didn't expect you to be such a venomous snake, daring to covet something you shouldn't touch!"

Cui Xuanyu said this and winked at Yun Ying beside him.

A hint of coldness flashed in Yun Ying's eyes, and his might burst out. Those people originally wanted to resist, but when they wanted to take action, they found that they could no longer move. A cold and sharp murderous intent swept out, and several spiritual lights flashed, and their heads rolled to the ground, one of them even rolled in front of Cui Yuanshan.
