Chapter 1513: The Shui Family

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

When Xue Fanxin heard the news about the Shui family, and it was bad news, she asked anxiously, “Senior Brother Xuanyuan, can you tell me the exact situation

“I’m not too sure about the exact situation. Because the Xuanyuan family’s matter this time is a little related to the Shui family, I know a little information. As for the details, I’ll only know when I return to the family. However, one thing is certain. Shui Moning’s lineage has been expelled from the Shui family.”

If not for Shui Moning and Xue Fanxin’s extraordinary relationship, Xuanyuan Yunxing would not have paid attention to the Shui family at all, nor would he care who had been expelled from the Shui family.

No matter what happened to the Shui family, he had to return to the Xuanyuan family quickly. He could not let the family do anything stupid, such as what happened to the Shui family.

Xue Fanxin could not get anything out of Xuanyuan Yunxing, so she did not ask further. She chatted with them for a while more before personally sending them off.

However, not long after Xuanyuan Yunxing left, Manqiu came. The moment he arrived, he immediately went to look for Xue Fanxin and told her what he knew truthfully. “Your Highness, the Lin family made things difficult for the Shui family. In order to appease the Lin family’s anger, the Shui family expelled Shui Moning’s lineage from the family. There aren’t many people in Shui Moning’s lineage anymore. Apart from the father and daughter, the others can’t be considered members of the Shui family, so the only people who have really been expelled from the Shui family are Shui Moning and her father. I have already secretly settled them down. They won’t be in any danger for the time being.”

“Why would the Lin family suddenly cause trouble for the Shui family?” Xue Fanxin asked in confusion. However, she more or less had some guesses in her heart, but she could not be sure.

Could it be because of Lin Weiwei…

Manqiu did not waste his breath and explained the ins and outs of the matter.

“Lin Weiwei failed to pass the new student secret realm trial of the Five Elements Academy and was expelled from the academy. After returning, she pushed all the blame to Shui Moning. However, she is quite smart. From the beginning to the end, she did not mention a word about you, let alone your relationship with Shui Moning. Now, the deeds of Your Highness have yet to spread in the South Continent, so not many people know your identity and deeds.’

Because they did not know and Lin Weiwei deliberately hid it, the Lin family made things difficult for the Shui family fearlessly.

“If Lin Weiwei doesn’t mention it, won’t Moning mention it too?”

“Because Lin Weiwei did not pass the academy’s new student secret realm trial, she returned to the South Continent many days earlier than Shui Moning. When Shui Moning returned to the Shui family in the South Continent, before she could figure out the ins and outs of the matter, the Shui family had already announced to the public that they would expel the father and daughter from the Shui family.”

Hence, Shui Moning had no chance to explain the situation at all. She had not even been able to enter the Shui family’s door and had been expelled from the family the moment she returned.

Later, because of her anger and hatred, she decided not to mention it. Furthermore, she did not want to rely on Xue Fanxin for the truth. After all, it felt bad to always trouble others.

“Didn’t you already give quite a few Water Spirit Pills to Sister Moning’s father previously? With so many Water Spirit Pills, the Shui family still chased Sister Moning’s father out?”

“Shui Moning’s father did not publicize the Water Spirit Pills, so apart from him, no one in the Shui family knows of the existence of those Water Spirit Pills. Your Highness, the Shui family’s situation is a little complicated. I think that Shui Moning leaving the Shui family might not be a bad thing.”

“I’ll ask Sister Moning about the Shui family myself later. By the wav, how’s your investigation into Shui Qianrou?” Xue Fanxin was not interested in the others in the Shui family at all. She just needed to know how Shui Moning was doing.

Manqiu originally wanted to explain the complicated situation of the Shui family one by one, but seeing that Xue Fanxin was not interested, he did not say anything else. He answered the question seriously, “After investigation, Shui Qianrou had no choice but to escape from the family because she had been framed by my clan. Shui Qianrou has an elder sister, who is also the current mistress of the Lin family. Her name is Shui Qianlan, and the two of them are half-sisters. Initially, the person who married into the Lin family was Shui Qianrou, but later, Shui Qianlan used some schemes to cause Shui Qianrou to escape from the family and was finally expelled.”

There were actually still many mysteries about Shui Qianrou. Because too much time had passed, he could not find much information no matter how hard he searched.

Furthermore, Shui Qianrou was already dead. Investigating a dead person, a dead person that not many people remembered, was really not an easy task.

Xue Fanxin could tell that Manqiu had already done his best to investigate, but there was only this information, and it was worthless.

The more this was the case, the more it meant that Shui Qianrou was not simple.

“Manqiu, have a good rest first. Come with me to the South Continent tomorrow.”

“Yes,” Manqiu replied. He seemed to have something to say later, but he hesitated to say it, feeling a little conflicted.

Xue Fanxin could tell that Manqiu was in a dilemma, so she asked directly,

“What else do you want to say?”

“Your Highness, I heard something on the way back.”

“What news?”

“The Wind Emperor brought Feng Xiyu to the Medicine God Valley. Furthermore, the Medicine God of the Medicine God Valley has already promised the Wind Emperor to treat Feng Xiyu.”

“What are you worried about?” Xue Fanxin asked again.

Manqiu was conflicted again, but in the end, he still said bravely, “With Feng

Xiyu’s petty personality, once he recovers, he will definitely take revenge on Your Highness. Even if he can’t do it openly, he will definitely make underhand moves in secret, so please be mentally prepared.”

Although he did not think that Feng Xiyu could cause any trouble, the Feng family was quite capable. If they really did something, it would really be impossible to guard against.

“If the Medicine God of the Medicine God Valley can really repair Feng Xiyu’s meridians and dantian, that means that Feng Xiyu’s luck is really good. However, since I can cripple him once, I can cripple him a second time, so you don’t have to worry too much about this person.”

“Yes.”

Manqiu did not say anything else. He was just reminding Xue Fanxin. As for the future, they would talk about it in the future.

After Manqiu left, Xue Fanxin took out what she had obtained in Shui Qianrou’s tomb, but she had yet to see anything. After thinking about it, she decided to go to the Shui family personally and see if she could solve these mysteries.

There must be a reason or a secret why her great-grandma had left these things for her, so she had to figure it out.

Xue Fanxin bid farewell to everyone briefly that day and left the Desolate Region. She left with Manqiu and headed for the Shui family of the South Continent.

Because Ye Jiushang was not around, they could not reach their destination directly with a swoosh. Therefore, they could only use a teleportation array or talisman.

Manqiu did not have many teleportation talismans on him anymore, and Xue Fanxin did not even have one, so the two of them could only obediently use the teleportation array. They went to the central city first, then used the teleportation array in the central city to go to the main city of the South Continent.

Back then, because the Five Elements Academy was recruiting new disciples, the central city was filled with people. The people queuing up to use the teleportation array looked endless.

Although there were not as many people in the central city at this moment, there were still quite a few. They still had to line up to use the teleportation array.

Manqiu originally wanted to use the Nine Nether Holy Land’s badge to cut the line and use the teleportation array first, but he was stopped by Xue Fanxin. The two of them went to the end of the line to line up properly. However, when it was their turn, a playboy forcefully cut the line.

“Go, go, go. Make way for our Young Master.”

Xue Fanxin did not want to be too high-profile, so she ignored this matter. It did not matter even if she suffered a little. She wanted to take a step back and see the world.

She wanted to keep a low profile, but she just could not.

“Yo… This little beauty is really beautiful. It makes my heart move.” The playboy originally wanted to go straight to the teleportation array, but at this moment, he was lustful. When he saw Xue Fanxin, he had crooked thoughts.

When Manqiu saw that someone was teasing Xue Fanxin, he immediately stood out. “How dare you touch her? Are you tired of living?”

The playboy looked at Manqiu unhappily and said arrogantly, “Who do you think you are? How dare you interfere in my business? Do you know who I am?” “No matter who you are, you will die if you touch her.”

“Haha… You’re really arrogant. However, to be arrogant in front of me, you have a death wish. I’m the son of the King of the South Continent and the Young Master of the Southern King’s Estate. Are you sure you can afford to offend me?”

Even if the other Dartv revealed his identitv and background. Manaiu still said without changing his expression, “Even if you are the son of the King of the South Continent and the Young Master of the Southern King’s Estate, you have to die if you touch her.”

“What did you say? Say that again if you have the guts.” The Young Master of the Southern King’s Estate started to get angry. His face was filled with anger as he glared at Manqiu.

He was the Young Master of the Southern King’s Estate. No matter where he went, everyone had to give him some face, even the heads of those aristocratic families.

But now, a person of unknown background actually dared to look down on him.

Manqiu really did not take the Young Master of the Southern King’s Estate seriously. The more he looked, the more he felt displeased with this person. However, since Xue Fanxin had no instructions, he could not act recklessly, so he only stood there without moving. He looked coldly at the Young Master of the Southern King’s Estate and really said it again, “Even if you are the Young Master of the Southern King’s Estate, you have to die if you touch her.”

“I just have to touch this person. Let’s see what you can do about me. Someone, teach this person a lesson and let him know the consequences of offending me.”

The moment the Young Master of the Southern King’s Estate gave the order, his lackeys, henchman, and lapdogs immediately attacked Manqiu.

Manqiu did not even frown. He dealt with those people in a few moves. Then, he flashed in front of the Young Master of the Southern King’s Estate and reached out to strangle his neck.

“You… Let go of me. You actually dare to attack me. Just wait for the revenge of the Southern King’s Estate.” Even if the Young Master of the Southern King’s Estate was being strangled, he did not forget to bully others. Even at this moment, he did not think that the other party dared to kill him.

The name of the Southern King’s Estate was famous in the five continents and ten regions. Whoever dared to touch him would be going against the Southern King’s Estate.

However, Manqiu really did not take the Young Master of the Southern King’s Estate seriously. He increased the strength in his hand and wished he could strangle the person in his hand.

“Cough, cough, cough..

From the beginning to the end, Xue Fanxin did not speak. Seeing that Manqiu was about to strangle the Young Master of the Southern King’s Estate, she had no choice but to say, “If you use a little more force, he will die. Let him go first. No matter what, he is the Young Master of the Southern King’s Estate. We have no grudge with the Southern King’s Estate. There’s no need to form such a huge grudge over a small matter.”

Hearing Xue Fanxin’s words, Manqiu let go.

The Young Master of the Southern King’s Estate coughed for a long time and took a few deep breaths to catch his breath. He first glared fiercely at Manqiu before turning his gaze to Xue Fanxin. However, after what had just happened, he no longer seemed to have the courage to tease the person in front of him.

However, the Young Master was quite arrogant.

“At least you know what’s good for you. I have the soul mark left behind by my father. If you dare to kill me, my father will definitely find out. At that time, you’ll be finished.”

Hearing this, Manqiu glared angrily.

The Young Master of the Southern King’s Estate was so frightened that he trembled. He moved slightly towards Xue Fanxin and said with a hint of panic, “What else do you want? I’m not frightened. If you dare to do anything to me, I’ll definitely return it double in the future.”

A certain Young Master saw that his words did not seem to be of much use, so he could only turn his attention to Xue Fanxin. “Miss, you’d best control him lest you cause a fatal disaster because of him.”

Xue Fanxin could already tell this Young Master’s personality. Although he was a playboy and liked to bully others, he did not have much courage.

Such a person would not achieve much. There was no need to waste much effort on him.

However, she did not want to cause such trouble in the Southern King’s Estate, so it was best to resolve it peacefully.

“Young Master Nan, I’m really sorry. My attendant was not very polite to you. Please forgive him. However, when you’re out, you have to keep a low profile. If you keep shouting that you’re the Young Master of the Southern King’s Estate and are targeted by the enemies of the Southern King’s Estate, that will be terrible. As the Young Master of the Southern King’s Estate, you should know what kind of enemies the Southern King’s Estate has, right?”

“What you said makes sense.” Young Master Nan had clearly heard Xue Fanxin’s words and was thinking about it very seriously. He was like a simple and innocent person who did not have any schemes or intelligence. “I think you’re right. When you’re out, it’s best to keep a low profile. By the way, I still don’t know who you are.”

“My name is Xue Fanxin.”

“Xue Fanxin, your name is not bad. Where are you from?”

“Desolate Region.”

“Desolate Region… I heard that the Desolate Region has been quite lively recently. Are you going back to the Desolate Region now?”

“No, to the South Continent.”

“Haha… You’re going to the South Continent too! What a coincidence. I’m returning to the South Continent too. If you don’t mind, let’s go together.”

“That’s not good, right? After all, my attendant just made Young Master Nan unhappy. I’m afraid it’ll be a little awkward to be with you now.”

“What’s wrong with that? I’m magnanimous. For your sake, I forgive him. Let’s go, let’s go together. When we reach the South Continent, I’ll take you to live a good life.” A certain Young Master did not care if Xue Fanxin agreed or not and pulled her towards the teleportation array.

Xue Fanxin was a little helpless and could only follow.

Manqiu had a displeased expression. He glared at Young Master Nan even more ruthlessly and ordered, “Let go.”

How could he let others touch the consort’s precious body?
