Chapter 336 Enemies Gathered

Hundred Fragrance Restaurant Branch

"Are you okay, Xiuling?" An old man with long white hair who was wearing a white flower-patterned robe asked anxiously.

The old man was none other than Hua Shitian, the patriarch of the Hua Main family. Hua Xiuling sighed softly, and she felt a little annoyed seeing her grandfather act like that. "I told you that I'm perfectly fine! Anyway, did you know that Aunt Xiangyue has already chosen her husband, Grandpa?"

"Huh?" Hua Shitian became frozen and dumbfounded by his granddaughter's question.

Xiang Yin and Yu Suya were laughing in their hearts at his reaction, they knew very well that he loved and cared for Hua Xiangyue, and he always treated her like a princess. But now, they could see that she had not told her father anything about her relationship with Xia Tian.

Moments later, Hua Shitian frowned, and he spoke seriously. "Where did you hear that bullshit? I never knew your aunt had chosen her husband, nor did she ever say anything to me that she already had the man of her dreams."

"I found out from the man claiming to be my aunt's husband, I've tried to confirm it to her, but she hasn't given me an answer until now." Hua Xiuling then turned to Xiang Yin. "Moreover, Aunt Yin has also confirmed that Aunt Xiangyue has chosen her husband, and her husband is Xia Tian."

"Xia Tian? Where have I heard that name?" Hua Shitian then turned to Xiang Yin. "Who is Xia Tian, ??Madam Yin? Is he really Xiangyue's chosen husband?"

Xiang Yin laughed softly at his question, which she then answered. "Xiuling is telling you the truth, Old Shitian. Xia Tian is Xia Ling's grandson, he is Bai Yinyue and Zhu Honglian's husband, and he is also Xiangyue's chosen husband."

"That Xia Tian!?" Xiang Yin nodded to him, Hua Shitian then took a deep breath, and he grumbled to himself. "Why didn't Xiangyue tell me anything about their relationship? She even ran away from home, and I don't know where she is now."

"Huh? Aunt Xiangyue ran away from home?" Hua Xiuling was shocked to hear that, and Hua Shitian simply nodded at her.

'',

Xiang Yin then said to reassure them. "You don't have to worry about her, Old Shitian. She is in the Holy Central Continent, and she has already joined the Sheng Imperial Sect."

Hua Shitian and Hua Xiuling stared at Xiang Yin dumbfoundedly, as they were shocked to hear Hua Xiangyue had run away to other continent, and she didn't even tell her family at all.

"She went to the continent to think about many things, I'm sure she will return when she has found the answers to her questions." Xiang Yin spoke again.

Hua Shitian sighed heavily, and he could only nod to her. "Then-"

He was about to ask again, but three men and two women had already walked into the room, and they shouted. "Hua Xiuling! Tell us how our children died!"

Hua Xiuling was terrified of them, and Hua Shitian immediately stood in front of his granddaughter, and he released his aura to protect her.

Xiang Yin frowned at their behavior, she then used her aura to suppress them, as she coldly said. "You guys have no manners, huh? Do you think you can act as you please in my place?"

"Ugh!" Four of the five people immediately fell to the floor. They looked at Xiang Yin with mixed feelings, as they felt angry and humiliated by her actions.

Only Ding Yuan was still able to stand up straight, because his cultivation was on par with hers. He sighed softly, then he said. "Please let them go, Madam Yin. They are like this because they recently lost their children; and so am I."

"Humph!" Xiang Yin snorted disdainfully, she then withdrew her aura and turned her face away from them.

After the pressure was gone, the four people immediately stood up from the floor, and three of them were still staring at Xiang Yin with hostility. Ding Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, and he then asked Hua Xiuling. "How can they die, Xiuling? Please, tell us what exactly happened in the forest."

Hua Xiuling nodded to him, and she told them based on her altered memories by Xia Tian. In her memories, when they arrived at the deepest part of the forest, they encountered several beasts of the earth rank. Because they panicked, they immediately ran away from the chase of the beasts separately. As for her, when she arrived at the inner area of ??the forest, she was saved by Xia Tian.

'.',

Ding Yuan and the other four listened intently to her story, as they observed her expression, and they could see that she had not lied to them. She hadn't lied to them, and the whole story was really on her mind.

After Hua Xiuling finished telling everything, the five people fell silent, thinking about the truth of her story. They knew that there were indeed many earth-rank beasts in the deepest part of the Star-Moon Forest, there were even heaven-rank beasts within the forest, but they could not believe that they could coincidentally run into a few of them.

Just as they were thinking about the matter, they were startled by Xiang Yin's cold warning. "You better not stare at my daughter like that, because I know your rottenness very well, Ling Xin. Moreover, if her fiancé finds out that you are looking at her lustfully, even Ling Xiao won't be able to save you from his wrath."

Ding Yuan and the others looked at Ling Xin with raised eyebrows, they came here to find out the truth about their children's deaths. And Ling Xin himself also lost his daughter, yet now he behaves like that toward Xiang Yin's beloved daughter.

Ling Xin's face turned red with embarrassment and anger, but he didn't dare to say anything, because Xiang Yin was much stronger than him, and she also had many connections that could destroy her family very easily.

Suddenly, Hua Xiuling asked. "Since when did Big Sis Suya have a fiancé, Aunt Yin? How come I never heard the news? And who is the lucky man who managed to win her heart?"

Yu Suya looked at her with a smile, and she then answered her question. "My fiancé is Xia Tian, ??Xiuling."

"Huh!?" Those people screamed as they stared at Yu Suya in disbelief.

Ling Xin frowned as he wondered in his heart. 'Xia Tian? Isn't he Xia Ling's grandson? As I recall, he is the son-in-law of Zhu Yuhe and Bai Zhongyu.'

Seeing Ling Xin reaction like that, Xiang Yin then spoke to him with a mocking smile. "Now you understand why Ling Xiao won't be able to save you, right? So you better get my daughter out of your dirty mind!"

Ling Xin didn't say anything, he just gritted his teeth and clasped his hands tightly in annoyance and anger. Ding Yuan could only shake his head, and he said to them. "In that case, we should go to Star-Moon Forest right now to look for their corpses."

Gao Lan and the others nodded in agreement, and they immediately said their goodbyes to Xiang Yin and the others, Hua Shitian and Hua Xiuling also went with them. Before he walked out, Ling Xin turned to Xiang Yin and Yu Suya for a moment, and his expression was filled with evil thoughts.
