Liu Dalang wanted to explode froer How could there be soer brother had stolen so about it so casually! Did he think that it was so taken a piece of candy? That he could just return it, and everything would be fine? The killing of another’s parents and the taking of another’s love engendered history’s deepest grudges
It was obvious to hieance His actions so far had been only appetizers, a s of their funeral bells, so to speak The worst was yet to arrive!
And Liu Feng, that despicable brute… he thought that it wasn’t a big idea, even now? ‘I’ll just give her back if I have to’ Was that even feasible?!
Hatred at being left destitute wasn’t soive up so easily, at least in Liu Dafang’s opinion He certainly wouldn’t, if he were in the victim’s shoes In that instant, he wanted very badly to cut his useless brother down on the spot
The Liu faest son He rushed to intercept his oldest son’s murderous expression “My child, cal was thoroughly upset He sat back down on his chair angrily “Father, you need to stop shi+elding this useless brute Has he not troubled our fah? And every time he does, I’m the one that has to clean up after him But this time, he’s practically drowned himself in the latrine! How am I supposed to deal with that? The sky hasn’t fallen yet, but it’s about to, alright?” The eldest Liu son was beyond exasperated
“Iovernment official that works for the imperial crown He’s just a commoner with no scholarly honors whatsoever He has no roots here in Scarlet Tang City So what if he butters up soh to turn theainst us? It’s not so easy as that” The old man was more astute than one would expect

“So what? That doesn’t overnh to e Empire?”
“Father, you don’t know the half of it He has a bunch of cultivation experts with hi with us, I fear He won’t do anything in the open, but experts are all lawless ainst us, we can’t resist at all The strongest cultivator that we have is only sky sage realht a few e really orried
He’d seen eance wasn’t soht further would realize that no sane ’s actions Who could bear the pain of having his wos are as you say, Dalang, then what should we do?” The Liu fa a hint of concern
“There’s no other way We need to yield This is as bad as being under another’s roof Let ive hiy”
“Will he accept it?” The old man asked
“Of course not This is only to test the waters Liu Feng has to face thiswith utmost humility is the only possible solution If he’s lucky, the other guy won’t kill hi trailed off, but it was obvious what he rily “Brother, are you going to give up your own brother for so was upset in his own right “Even if I did that right now, you pig, I don’t know if it’ll be enough to save our fa you keeps our faiven up hope on Liu Feng quite a while ago No ’s constant trouble had severed it many times over
