Chapter 201 The Seal Carrying the Expectation
In the silent banquet hall, the sound of blood spewing out seemed to be extremely loud.
“Puff…”
Just at the moment when Liu Chunjiang’s blood spewed out, Bai Aoxue leaned quickly to one side and let go of the hand that clamped Liu Chunjiang.
With his eyes opened so wide, making a gurgling sound in his throat, Liu Chunjiang quickly fell to the ground.
Bai Aoxue held a short knife in her hand and looked at Liu Chunjiang coldly, who had lost his temperature. The appearance without grief or joy made other people tremble in the mind.
The dagger with chill and cold air shone brightly in the sun. The red gemstone was like a pair of bloodthirsty cold eyes, which was as quirky and secret as its master. It was daunting.
“From today, Liu Wan is the current fort lord of Liujiabao. If you have any objections or want to make a profit in the troubled situation, I will be rude!” Bai Aoxue looked at the crowd coldly and opened her lips lightly.
Although some of the people present agreed with Bai Aoxue’s statement, some still couldn’t stand it because of Bai Aoxue’s arrogant action.
“Why? Who are you?” A gentle-looking man yelled loudly.
Bai Aoxue looked at the man coldly, saying with a smile, “You seem to be from the Zhengyang Sect. Do you forget what happened to your Eldest Missy from the Zhengyang Sect? Or do you want to try it once again, the taste of being beaten?”
The man changed his color when he heard Bai Aoxue’s words. How could he not remember the encounter of their Eldest Missy, who completely lost her martial arts after being taken back and completely became a waste person?
However, Housemaster said that Eldest Missy deserved it, and he was not allowed to mention this thing in the future. He could not afford to offend those people. He should respectfully cope with them when he saw them in the future. But he did not expect to meet them now!
Even Housemaster said that he shouldn’t provoke these people, which showed how powerful these people were. He didn’t dare to say anything at this moment, but did he want himself to lose face like this?
The man clenched his fists and was just willing to talk. But at the entrance of the banquet hall, a large number of people unexpectedly poured in!
“Miss! I am late!” With a loud shout, someone was already running towards Liu Wan.
Bai Aoxue looked at the comer, and her lips twitched slightly.
The comer was not someone else, and it was those people who were brought into Liujiabao by her, the old subordinates of Liu Wan’s father.
Liu Wan was still frightened after escaping from the death. She watched Bai Aoxue who killed Liu Chunjiang and terminated the crisis. There was no regret at all in her heart.
The figure of this man had been haunting her like a ghost since more than ten years ago. She couldn’t forget the blood feud at every moment. This made her live in the hatred all the time.
She once thought about perishing together with Liu Chunjiang. But she was afraid that after she died, Liu Chunjiang still got away with murder. Then who should revenge for the hatred of her parents?
Thinking like this, she worked hard to survive in this world. As long as she could revenge, she would do anything, including going through fire and water!
For a moment, she thought just now that even if Liu Chunjiang really killed her, she would pull Liu Chunjiang to hell together!
She did not expect that she was rescued. She was rescued by this woman who lit up her world which was full of hatred. This woman was the only light. Even if she could not kill her enemy by herself, she had no regrets!
Looking at the middle-aged man who arrived hastily, Liu Wan was a little bit sore. After so many years of grievances, she finally found the outlet to vent. It turned out that when she was young, she was not alone while bearing it. She was not alone while suffering a lot.
These people were also working hard in different places, just like her, to avenge for her parents. It seemed that the sufferings of these years were not worth mentioning!
The middle-aged man certainly heard Bai Aoxue’s words. He gave a grateful look at Bai Aoxue and then excitedly took out what was wrapped in silk in his hand.
“This is the seal of the fort lord of Liujiabao! I think that all of you won’t misread. The seal of the fort lord has been passed down from generation to generation. But Liu Chunjiang has been the fort lord of Liujiabao for many years, and he has never taken out the seal. Do you know why? Let me tell you. The seal of the fort lord has always been held by those five elders. But at the time of the turmoil, the fort lord gave it to me early. So, Liu Chunjiang and those five elders didn’t have any seal. The seal in those five elders’ hands is also fake! Although Liu Chunjiang is the fort lord, he has no real power at all. Because he has never owned the seal!” The middle-aged man said loudly and put the seal on his palm.
Everyone looked at the seal in the middle-aged man’s hand and began to whisper.
“Who are you?” Elder Yuan Zhen looked at the middle-aged man and asked, stroking his beard incidentally.
The middle-aged man looked at Elder Yuan Zhen. He worshiped respectfully and said, “Elder, I think that you can’t remember me anymore. I am Kuang Zheng, the Left Shadow Messenger of the fort lord in those days!”
“Kuang Zheng?” Elder Yuan Zhen recalled it carefully after hearing this.
“Oh… I remember now. The person whom Yifei believed most was you in those days. No wonder you know where the seal is.” Elder Yuan Zhen looked at Kuang Zheng with clear eyes and said.
Kuang Zheng nodded and said slowly, “In those days, the fort lord went to rescue his wife. We went together with him, but we were sieged and ambushed by Liu Chunjiang and these old guys. The fort lord fought to get me out of the siege and asked me to escape. I have been living for Miss so far. But for this young man, maybe I would not be able to meet Miss at this moment and complete the last wish of the fort lord!”
Kuang Zheng looked at Bai Aoxue. His eyes were filled with sincere gratitude emanating from the bottom of his heart. So, anyone could see that Kuang Zheng did not cheat.
“Last wish?” Liu Wan asked, looking at Kuang Zheng in doubt.
Kuang Zheng received the expression in Liu Wan’s eyes and solemnly nodded his head. He said, “In those days, the fort lord could not leave alive, so he told me something. If one day Miss can take back the position of the fort lord of Liujiabao, then the seal will be owned by Miss herself. If Miss lives well, then I will never show up in front of Miss. I will let Miss live a worry-free life!”
Kuang Zheng said so, but he was the first to make his eyes red.
“Later, the fort lord and his wife suffered this calamity. When I returned to Liujiabao, I couldn’t find Miss. We searched everywhere, but we never found Miss. When we were planning to return to die with Liu Chunjiang, we saw Miss outside the Liujiabao. At that time, although Miss was very thin, I still recognized Miss at first glance. After inquiring, I also knew that Miss was living badly in Liujiabao. Although Miss was adopted by Liu Chunjiang nominally and was his foster daughter, she lived even worse than a servant!”
“I was going to wait for Miss to grow up slowly and then tell her everything. Then I would let Miss choose by herself. But I did not expect that Miss had already known her life experience. Maybe it was God that did not want to see Liu Chunjiang get away with murder! Now our revenge has been finished. I must also give this seal to Miss.”
Kuang Zheng said so. He solemnly put the emerald seal in Liu Wan’s hands gently.
This seal carried her father’s will and expectation on her.
Liu Wan felt that holding this seal was like holding her father’s hope for her.
She took the seal carefully. Liu Wan’s tears seemed to be uncontrollable and then fell fiercely. Her shoulders twitched fiercely. Her tears fell to the ground and were instantly covered in dust.
Liu Wan bit her lip lightly, not wanting to make herself cry. But Bai Aoxue still heard her sad voice. She said, “Father… Father…”
Kuang Zheng was looking at Liu Wan with such a look, and he was also very sad in the mind. When he thought that she, such a young person, endured too many things that those peers had not experienced, he felt that God was so unfair to her.
He only hoped that God could treat this girl kindly in the next several decades, who lived so toughly.
“Now, is there anyone else who is dissatisfied or has an objection? Miss is the only bloodline of the fort lord. Liu Chunjiang originally obtained the position of the fort lord by shameful means. Now Miss has taken back the position of the fort lord. I hope you can understand that this is reasonable!” Kuang Zheng said in a deep voice, looking at all the people present.
When people heard Liu Wan’s words, they were briefly silent.
“I agree with Kuang Zheng’s words. Liu Wan is the daughter of Yifei. It is natural that Liu Wan should inherit the position of the fort lord. Even if you have any objections, please hold them back. This is the family affair of Liujiabao. We, as a group of outsiders, can’t make indiscreet remarks or criticisms on this thing!” Elder Yuan Zhen said calmly, without any objections.
People present in all walks of life listened to Elder Yuan Zhen’s words and did not have too many objections. Indeed, as Elder Yuan Zhen said, this was the family affair of Liujiabao, and there was no room for them to intervene.
Moreover, the demon that was next to Liu Wan was not that kind of person they could provoke!
The crowd turned their eyes to Bai Aoxue again. They just saw that Bai Aoxue stood beside Liu Wan and did not speak. But it still made people feel that the momentum of looking down on this world still existed.
“This year’s Falling Flower Festival will end like this.” Elder Yuan Zhen said lightly.
Everyone nodded consciously.
“I don’t know the name of this young hero. Who are you?” Elder Yuan Zhen looked at Bai Aoxue respectfully and asked. That was the respect for the strong. In such an era, as long as you had the strength, you could be respected.
Bai Aoxue looked at the old man who questioned her. Her eyes were light, but she didn’t speak.
While everyone thought that Bai Aoxue could not speak, Bai Aoxue suddenly opened her thin lips. She said with a fluid glance, “Bai.”
As soon as everyone heard this, they immediately recalled in their hearts which sect this young man whose surname was Bai came from. But they thought of nothing even though racking their brains. Everyone then realized that she was a member of the Hidden Family.
They felt relieved a lot in their hearts. Only the inherited children of the Hidden Family could come out to gain experience and toughen in all corners of the country. Bai Aoxue had shown such arrogance since the beginning. Of course, everyone had classified her as a member of the Hidden Family.
No one now believed that Bai Aoxue would be Nalan Youhong’s cousin. Perhaps he said so just to cover up his identity.
“Ha-ha… Young Hero Bai, we will meet again one day! I will leave first now!” After Elder Yuan Zhen smiled and fisted to Bai Aoxue, he led his people to leave quickly.
Everyone saw that Elder Yuan Zhen had already left. There was no need for them to stay. After all, the children of the Hidden Family were not so easy to curry favor with!
Liu Wan watched people leave one after another. Liu Wan also controlled her emotions and walked to the side of Bai Aoxue.
“Benefactor, thank you! This is the seal entrusted to me by my father. I want to give this seal to you. I believe you can promote Liujiabao better!” Liu Wan opened her palm, and the emerald seal appeared in her hand.
Kuang Zheng and others did not stop Liu Wan. If it was Liu Wan’s decision, they would support it. No matter where Liu Wan would go in the future, they would always follow her and protect her!
Bai Aoxue looked at the seal in Liu Wan’s hand and shook her head gently. She said, “This is the expectation entrusted to you by your father. You should work harder to realize this expectation. Don’t you think you can fulfill your father’s expectation? Or are you afraid of letting your father down?”
Liu Wan shook her head fiercely when she heard Bai Aoxue’s words.
“Yeah, now that you have the confidence to believe in yourself, you should work harder to create a glorious Liujiabao and be the pride of your father and mother. I said at the beginning that I helped you for no rewards.” Bai Aoxue reached out and closed Liu Wan’s hand. She formally rejected the seal that everyone wanted in all corners of the country.
Liu Wan nodded her head seriously and said with firm eyes, “I will not disappoint my father and mother, as well as those uncles here! I will swear to fight to protect Liujiabao well!”
Bai Aoxue nodded gently. She turned to look at Kuang Zheng and said, “Uncle Kuang, you don’t mind me calling you like this, right?”
Kuang Zheng nodded in amazement and said, “You are my benefactor of Liujiabao. Even if you treat me as a servant, I will not have any complaints. I am really flattered to be called like that!”
Bai Aoxue smiled gently. The sunshine poured like an instant magnificent glory. She said, “You said that you traveled all over the country. You must know a lot of things. I want to ask you a question. Have you ever heard of a kind of rare herbal medicine called Mu Yun Grass?”
