"I just happen to be going to find you. Tell me, when I saved them both, what did you promise me?" Shui Qinan looked down at the Patriarch condescendingly. The Patriarch had come for this matter as well, and had wanted to use the Patriarch's pressure to suppress Shui Qinan. However, she had not expected that she would actually be intimidated by Shui Qinan.

"I promised you that I would apologize to Zuo Yiyun personally … And... and also hand over to you the granddaughters of the Great Elder and the Second Elder. " The clan leader said with some difficulty.

"Then now you didn't apologize to Yi Yun and still want me to let them off, right?" Shui Qinan's cold voice carried an invisible pressure, causing the patriarch and the two elders to involuntarily tremble.

"The main culprit, Zuo Shuang'er, is dead. You see that Zuo Yiyun is fine too, is that all?" The Third Elder watched as the Great Elder and the Second Elder's granddaughter grew up. Naturally, he did not wish for them to be punished.

"Forget it?" If it wasn't for the urgent matter of their boss, Yi Yun would have died. Chu Tianyan said as he rushed over.

Zuo Yiyun also looked at the two elders in disappointment.

The Patriarch and the two elders felt that Zuo Yiyun's face was especially dazzling.

"Is there any other way to punish them?" Shui Qinan had said that she would pay Zuo Yiyun back as much as she got. He really couldn't bear to see her brothers and granddaughters suffering the same fate as Zuo Shuang'er.

"Unless they kowtow three times, five times, kneel ten times, kowtow time and time again from their room to Yiyun's room and ask for his forgiveness." Shui Qinan said after being silent for a long time.

She knew that Shui Qinan would do whatever sshe wanted to say and would never make an exception. Right now, he was not doing this to give face to the patriarchs and elders, but to establish his might for her in the Zuo.

"What?" Let me go three steps, one bow five steps, one kneel ten steps, one kowtow to that woman Zuo Yiyun and plead for forgiveness? "That's impossible!" A veiled lady in the room said angrily.

"Qing Er, listen to mother, that big sister Zuo Yiyun is not someone to be trifled with. "She said that if you don't apologize, you'll end up like Zuo Shuang'er." The beautiful woman said with tears in her eyes.

"What a joke, that Zuo Shuang'er deserves what he deserves. What does it have to do with me?" If it wasn't for the few cuts on Zuo Yiyun's face, at worst, I can just apologize, and she won't be able to kill me. " Yun Qing said disapprovingly. These few days, she was really worried about her face, but now her mother told her to apologize to that woman.

"Qing'er, are you going to listen to what your mother says!?" Other than Zuo Shuang'er, his daughter was the one who hit him the hardest. If he didn't apologize to his daughter, then his fate would be worse than Zuo Shuang'er's.

"I'm still afraid of her. She's just a slut, and I'm not a coward!" Zuo Qing tempered.

The beautiful woman was anxious when she heard this, but no matter what she said, Zuo Qing didn't want to go.

On the contrary, when the granddaughter of the Second Elder, Zuo Ruoli, heard that Zuo Yiyun had wrongly accused her, she could not rest at ease. Zuo Yiyun was indeed not scary, but the woman by Zuo Yiyun's side was especially dangerous.

So when Zuo Ruoli heard the words that the Third and Fourth Elders had brought back, she did as they said without a word.

Zuo Ruoli obediently kowtowed all the way from her house to Zuo Yiyun's room. Along the way, many people whispered to each other, and many people didn't know the truth, and wanted to pull Zuo Ruoli up, but they were all rejected by Zuo Ruoli.

After Zuo Qing found out, she came out of her house and mocked Zuo Ruoli, laughing at her naivety and her cowardice. Zuo Ruoli was filled with anger due to Zuo Qing's laughter. She also wanted to flick her sleeves and leave. However, thinking about what the Third and Fourth Elder had said, and what she had done wrong, she forcefully suppressed her anger.

Zuo Qing saw that Zuo Ruoli had ignored her, and continued to talk, and felt that it was boring. Moreover, the people around her were all looking at her with disdain.

The surrounding Zuo people also understood the ins and outs of what had happened, and did not say anything for a moment. They did not know what to say either, and they could not tell right from wrong for this matter.

Shui Qinan leisurely watched what was happening from atop a peach tree not far away. Under Yun Qing's teasing, Zuo Ruoli did not leave, she was a woman who knew when to back down. On the other hand, since Zuo Qing had given her the chance and she did not cherish it, then don't blame her, Shui Qinan, for being impolite.

After a few days, Yun Qing no longer appeared in front of everyone from the Zuo. It was said that she had contracted a serious illness and could not go out. However, there were also people who said that because of Zuo Qing's face getting worse, she couldn't even cover her face and didn't dare come out to see him.

The Patriarch personally apologized to Zuo Yiyun and passed the position of Patriarch to him.

Naturally, there were people who were unconvinced, but after the Patriarch told them everything that had happened to Zuo Yiyun, he helped them take care of the Wood Elder, so the other candidates did not say anything more. Afterwards, every candidate challenged Zuo Yiyun, but they were all defeated by him.

On this day, Mo Zichen, Chu Tianyan and the others all received messages from their families that were sent by pigeons. After they finished reading, all of them had heavy expressions. Finally, Chu Tianyan said to Shui Qinan, "Boss, the Shui family has been massacred."

"Shui Family?" Shui Qinan frowned, why was the Shui family slaughtered for no reason?

"Sis, Elder Zuo wants you to go to Tang Luo Palace." Zuo Yiyun said hastily as she pushed open the door. Earlier this morning, Zuo Lao told her that the Shui Family had been completely annihilated, and that the Shui Family was still her sister's family.

Shui Qinan's eyelids jumped, a bad premonition welled up in her heart.

Shui Qinan and a few others came to the Tang Luo Palace, Zuo Lao who was the former Patriarch of Zuo waved his hand towards Shui Qinan, inviting Shui Qinan to follow him in.

Old man Zuo walked to a corner of the Diruo Hall and pressed a few buttons in the corner, causing a secret door to appear on the wall.

"This is the secret of my Zuo for thousands of years, left behind by the first Patriarch of my Zuo. To us from the Zuo, this is a forbidden area." Elder Zuo looked at the secret door and said.

As soon as he finished speaking, the secret door had completely opened. From the ground rose a sandalwood hoist. On top of the hoist were two glass spheres, each with the words "Good and Evil" written on it. There was a layer of dust on the sandalwood platform, and the glass ball was also dim.

"No one from the Zuo can enter, so this door has been quiet for thousands of years, and there has been no one who has come by fate." Old man Zuo said with a deep voice, this was all told to him by the previous patriarch before he died. Every previous patriarch only told the current patriarch before he died to ensure the safety of the things inside.

"Do you think I'm fated?" Shui Qinan said indifferently.

"Yes." Elder Zuo nodded, hoping that he wasn't mistaken, "Place your hand between these two glass balls."

Shui Qinan didn't think much of it and placed her hand on top of the two glass balls. Elder Zuo looked at the glass balls nervously, but didn't make any changes to the glass balls for a long time, which made Elder Zuo very disappointed.

Just as Shui Qinan was about to take her hands away, the two glass balls suddenly lit up!

"One thought is good, one thought is evil, the Zuo family's secret door opens …"

A deep voice came from the secret door.

Old man Zuo smiled in a gratified manner. For thousands of years, there had never been a good or evil scene together. Whether good or evil, whether evil was good or not, good or evil couldn't coexist. He could be considered lucky. The person that was about to be buried had finally allowed him to find such a fated person.

The two spheres combined into one and emitted a soft glow, shining on the wall and reflecting a few lines of words.

"Ruthless and merciless, cold-hearted and heartless, but a good person."

"Suppressing the strong and helping the weak, helping the masses, yet he is a ruthless man in broad daylight."
