Chapter 232 – Secretly Happy
Huan Qing Yan smiled at him.
Huan Li An swept his gaze across the ancestral hall, “Our Huan Clan is now under the wrathful assault of a Great Demon, the reason why this happened… I shall not elaborate too much about it, and I am sure everyone knows very well in their hearts; if you have not done any shameful deeds, you should have no fears at all. This Greater Demon must be closely related to our Huan Clan; if anyone of you are afraid, this old man suggest you migrate out of the capital, find another place to start anew.”
“Old Ancestor, can we stay here and receive your protection?”
“That’s right Old Ancestor, if we were to migrate, we would lose everything we have built here; how are we going to survive in the future!”
……
Huan Li An shook his head, “This Greater Demon is likely a Late-Stage Demon General, equivalent to a Late-Stage True Spirit Master, so this old man is unable to defend even one attack from it. Those who have a clear conscience will not need to move away; those who have done any shameful deeds, you should just go as soon as possible! The earlier you act, the better. That Greater Demon is known to only strike at night, it has never appeared in broad daylight before.”
Everyone had treated their Old Ancestor who was a Six-Star spirit master as their final hope, but it seems like this last hope was no longer useful.
Some were flabbergasted.
While others who were slightly quicker with their thoughts, immediately knelt down towards Huan Qing Yan and Madam Huan’s direction, kowtowing their heads heavily onto the ground.
“Zhang Clan, Qing Yan, we were greedy for your family’s fortune previously, but now, we truly regret our actions. We promise to never have designs towards your family anymore, please let us off, please get that Greater Demon to let us off.”
“Young Mistress, please spare our lives, we are all from the same clan; please do not ruthlessly exterminate all of us, we are truly sorry. We now know that although money is important, one’s life is even more important!”
……
With one leading, the rest also followed the example and kneeled in front of Huan Qing Yan, all sorts of pleas and requests gushed into the ear.
They all felt that Huan Qing Yan had a higher chance to be related to Greater Demon; this was because Huan Qing Yan was a Four-Star spirit master, with a genius talent. Compared to Madam Huan, she would be the one with the higher chance to arrange an agreement with that Greater Demon.
Huan Qing Yan sighed, human nature was as such, they bully the kind and fear the wicked.
Before, she tried using polite words or small tricks to teach them a lesson, yet they acknowledged her demands on the outside but refused her requests in the inside.
Only after a round of blood was spilled, did they finally lose their nerve.
Huan Qing Yan was truly grateful towards this Greater Demon, however! She did not know who was this demon!
“Reincarnated girl, did you really not know who that Greater Demon was in your last life?”
The reincarnated girl was silent for a moment, “No, I don’t. That Greater Demon seemed to have disappeared after the killing in Bai Cheng Feng’s place…”
Huan Qing Yan suddenly thought of a person, but she felt it was ridiculous and impossible.
So she discarded that idea to the back of her mind.
Facing these clan relatives who were pleading her, Huan Qing Yan said, “I really do not know this Greater Demon; in fact, it may not even be the same demon, the one that killed before have dug out the hearts of its victims, but this one did not. It can also be that Papa has returned to kill those bad men who deserves to die, so pleading me is useless.”
When everyone heard her, some people began to crawl up towards Huan Bei Ming’s tablet and started kowtowing towards it.
Huan Qing Yan was secretly happy at their actions; she truly must thank that Greater Demon.
After this incident, it was likely that these clan relatives would no longer dare to have ideas over their family.
However, who was that mastermind behind Huan Dong Hai and Luo Shuang?
