The woman slapped him very hard, and there was spiritual energy in it.

Even though Wen Zhiyun’s cultivation was not low and her physical body was not weak, there was still a bright red palm print on her face and a burning pain.

However, compared to this pain, Wen Zhiyun’s pride was the most hurt.

Her previous argument with the woman had attracted many people to surround her and join in the fun. The scene of her being slapped just now had happened in front of everyone. This trampled her pride to the ground.

Regarding this, she was extremely angry. She raised her hand and slapped the woman’s face, wanting to regain some face for herself.

Facing this slap, the woman had no intention of dodging at all. She said fearlessly,

“My husband is the Hall Master of the Alchemy Hall. Try hitting me!”

As soon as the woman said this, Wen Zhiyun’s palm was instantly stuck in midair and could no longer land.

In the end, her rationality overcame her impulse. She chose to swallow her anger and not cause trouble for Chen An.

Pah!

A crisp slap sounded.

Seeing that Wen Zhiyun didn’t dare to attack, the woman slapped her again, leaving a bright red palm print on the other side of her face.

Wen Zhiyun pursed her thin lips tightly and clenched her fists under her clothes.

Other than that, there was nothing else.

Even though she had been slapped twice in public, she still chose to endure it in the end.

“Bad woman, you’re not allowed to hit my mother!!!”

Chen Yike stood in front of her mother and roared fiercely at the woman.

The woman did not give in to her when she saw that she was young. She raised her hand and slapped her again.

Pah!

With this sound, a bright red palm print instantly appeared on Chen Yike’s face.

Then, she was stunned.

She was a little stunned by the woman’s slap.

“You’re courting death!”

Shen Qingyi’s blood surged. She angrily pulled out the sword at her waist and placed it on the woman’s snow-white neck with a sharp gaze.

The woman knew that she wouldn’t dare to really slash someone. She still mocked fearlessly, “Why? Do you want to slash me? You can try slashing me! 1’11 see how miserable you and your daughter will die after this!”

When Shen Qingyi heard this, she instinctively let go of the hilt of her sword.

It was different. Everything was different from before.

In the past, she was alone and had nothing to worry about. She could punish evil at will.

However, now that she had a daughter, she could no longer be as carefree as before…

Realizing this, Shen Qingyi’s eyes dimmed.

Wen Zhiyun, who was in front, held her two daughters’ hands and retreated. She said to Shen Qingyi,

“Sister Shen, let’s go.”

She did not want to be entangled with that woman anymore. It was better to avoid trouble.

Hearing Wen Zhiyun’s words and considering her three young daughters, Shen Qingyi could only suppress the anger in her heart and retract the sword on the woman’s neck.

“Little Siran, Little Jinghan, come, Mother will carry you away.”

Gu Xinyue picked up her two younger daughters and wanted to leave this place quickly. She didn’t want to be entangled with that barbaric woman.

Shen Qingyi and Wen Zhiyun did the same. They turned around and left with their daughters.

“You want to leave? It’s not that easy!”

“How dare you talk back to me? Hurry up and kneel down and kowtow to me!”

“Otherwise, none of you can leave this place today!”

The woman chased after them relentlessly.

Gu Xinyue was forced to stop and say, “Madam Hall Master, it was our fault just now. You’re a magnanimous person. Can you…”

“… Smack!”

Before Gu Xinyue could finish speaking, she was slapped on the face.

The force of the slap was not small. It knocked her entire body to the ground, causing the two little girls lying on her shoulders to fall to the ground as well.

In an instant, the two little girls cried out in pain. They kept crying “Mother” and “Father”.

“You’re courting death!”

Shen Qingyi could no longer hold it in. She drew the sword at her waist again and rushed towards the woman.

However, she had underestimated the strength of a Hall Master’s wife.

In the face of her menacing sword, the woman only calmly raised her slender hand and casually used two fingers to catch the sword she swung.

“This…!”

Shock appeared in Shen Qingyi’s eyes. She did not expect the woman to be so powerful. She could actually withstand her full-strength sword with her bare hands.

The woman ignored Shen Qingyi’s surprise and said to the surrounding onlookers,

“As everyone can see, this woman attacked me first to kill me. When 1 kill this thief who violated the rules in self-defense, everyone must remember to testify for me!”

As soon as she finished speaking, several silver needles appeared out of thin air in the woman’s other hand. She raised her hand and threw them all at Shen Qingyi’s face.

‘I’m going to die…’ Looking at the silver needles flying towards her at high speed, this was the only thought left in Shen Qingyi’s mind.

Just as these silver needles touched the skin on her face and were about to pierce through her entire head, an invisible force instantly made these silver needles hover in the air.

“Who’s attacking?!”

Seeing that her attack had been blocked, the woman shouted angrily.

As soon as she finished speaking, an elegant figure appeared beside Gu Xinyue and helped her and her two daughters up from the ground.

“Husband!”

Looking at the familiar figure in front of her, Wen Zhiyun could no longer control her emotions. Her beautiful eyes teared up, and her eyes turned red.

Chen Yike, who had followed behind, also complained in a sobbing voice,

“Father, that bad woman slapped Mother’s face twice. She slapped my face and even slapped Mother Gu’s face!”

“Father understands.” Chen An replied calmly.

After using the Sleepy Time Spell to make his two crying daughters fall asleep, he turned around and walked towards the woman expressionlessly. The aura he emitted was extremely oppressive.

Seeing that he was constantly approaching and feeling the pressure on him, the woman’s heart was instantly filled with fear and she instinctively retreated repeatedly.

“What do you want to do?!”

“I’m the wife of the Alchemy Hall Master!”

“If you attack me, the consequences…”

“… Smack!”

Before the woman could finish speaking, Chen An slapped her.

The powerful impact of this slap directly flipped the woman to the ground and she instantly fainted.

However, Chen An did not let the woman off just like that.

With a thought, he took out a medicinal pill surrounded by purple qi. With a flick of his finger, he accurately shot it into the woman’s mouth and shattered her two front teeth.

The pill melted in her mouth and woke the woman up in the blink of an eye.

Seeing that she was awake, Chen An pulled her up from the ground and raised his hand to slap her face again.

Pah!

With a sound, the woman fainted again.
