"boom!"
The door was closed, and the small woodshed became dark.
He struggled to his feet and gently touched his wounds.
A slight smile appeared on Jiang Yuyan's lips.
"Thank you so much, Father. One hundred and thirty-eight lashes in half a month."
"If these whips were used on an ordinary person, they would probably lose their lives."
"If a child is born but not raised, a severed finger can be returned!"
"To give birth to someone and raise them is a debt that can be repaid even with one's head; to raise someone before birth is a debt that can never be repaid, even after a hundred lifetimes!"
“I have received 138 lashes from you, which is my way of repaying your kindness in giving me life.”
After saying that, Jiang Yuyan's eyes became even more determined.
At the same time, he sat cross-legged, and a weak stream of true energy slowly circulated within his body, healing Jiang Yuyan's injuries.
Jiang Yuyan did not know martial arts before, but she lived in the bamboo grove courtyard for a long time.
What kind of place is that bamboo grove courtyard?
Those who can live in the bamboo grove courtyard are either masters of martial arts or have a distinguished family background.
Jiang Yuyan learned her martial arts skills by observing others. She was present when Wang Yuyan recited martial arts techniques to Zhang Wuji.
Inviting the moon, Dongfang Bubai gave instructions to Zhang Wuji, and Jiang Yuyan was present.
Moreover, no one paid any attention to Jiang Yuyan watching from the side.
After all, these were just some basic martial arts skills, and given the limited perspective of the people in the bamboo grove courtyard, they didn't care at all.
Moreover, when they saw Jiang Yuyan practicing incorrectly, the others would occasionally offer some pointers.
How many people in the world can enjoy such treatment?
Outside the Jiang residence.
With a cold expression, Xiaoyuer stared intently at the mansion.
He has been waiting here for half a month.
"Little Fish, you'd better not go in. I can handle this."
Tu Jiaojiao looked at Xiaoyuer with concern.
Xiaoyuer grew up in the Valley of Villains, and he had long regarded him as his own son.
Although Ping An Inn had the Evil Valley completely under its control, Xiao Yu'er was able to join the Ping An Inn's ranks.
Everyone was genuinely happy.
Who is the Sword Immortal of Peace? Tu Jiaojiao doesn't want to ruin Xiaoyuer's chance because of her personal grudges.
Jiang Yuyan was, after all, Jiang Biehe's daughter.
If Xiaoyuer had a conflict with Mr. Li's maid, it would easily displease Mr. Li.
It's totally not worth it.
If it were truly possible, he could give up revenge for Xiaoyuer's sake.
Hearing Tu Jiaojiao's words, Xiaoyuer shook his head and smiled, "Aunt Tu."
"When did we in the Valley of Villains start thinking about things so much?"
"The decisive battle in the capital is over. Judging by the distance, Lao Hua should be arriving soon."
"Then the three of us will beat Jiang Biehe into a dead Jiang."
"But"
"I'm hungry, so I went out to get something to eat. I'll bring it to you later."
Tu Jiaojiao wanted to say more, but Xiaoyuer didn't give her a chance at all.
As day turned to night, the long night quickly passed.
Jiang Yuyan slowly opened her eyes and murmured to herself, "It's been two days since the Forbidden City Summit."
"According to Mr. Li's habit, he should arrive today."
Thinking of this, Jiang Yuyan felt a warmth in her heart.
Perhaps only that man in the world would love and cherish her.
When I first came to the Jiang residence, I still held some hope in my heart.
Jiang Biehe's patron Liu Xi is dead, and he has become infamous in the martial arts world.
Despite these circumstances, he still came to the Jiang residence without the slightest hint of disgust.
Logically and emotionally, they wouldn't go so far as to kill you.
But I never expected that my own father would be such a good-for-nothing.
And her own aunt could be even more vicious.
All she wanted was a home to prove she wasn't a bastard, and she was willing to be a simple maid even if it meant that.
Even with such a simple idea, they were not satisfied with themselves.
What did I do wrong? Why are they treating me like this?
Thinking of this, the last shred of family affection in Jiang Yuyan's heart was completely shattered.
She looked up at the small window, and a beautiful smile appeared on her face.
This smile, though beautiful, can make one feel as if they are in the dead of winter.
"Since you don't want me as your daughter, then I won't want you as my father either."
"With a father like you, I'll be looked down upon by others."
"Since that's the case, please grant my request this once."
"Madam, can't you just let her go?"
"She's still my daughter, after all!"
Jiang Biehe tried to stop Liu, but Liu glared at him with her phoenix eyes, and Jiang Biehe immediately backed down.
"Humph!"
Liu snorted coldly and said, "Jiang Biehe, I'll say it again."
"The Jiang family only has one daughter, and that is Jiang Yufeng."
"You don't think that just because my godfather is dead, you can act all high and mighty in front of me, do you?"
"Of course I wouldn't dare, Madam."
Jiang Biehe quickly denied it.
"I know you wouldn't dare!"
"Although my godfather is dead, I have found an even bigger backer."
"The head of the Eastern Depot, Eunuch Cao, has already taken me under his command."
"That Li Chengqian dared to trespass into the capital recklessly because he had some martial arts skills."
"Although he managed to escape last time, he won't have such a good chance this time."
"The officials in the capital are very dissatisfied with Li Chengqian's behavior. This time, the moment he dies at the Forbidden City will be the moment he loses his life."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Biehe frowned deeply.
"Madam, although..."
Why haven't we heard anything from here yet?
"Could something have happened?"
Chapter 312 Jiang Biehe's Fear, Li Chengqian Arrives
"What do you know? You want to kill someone like Li Chengqian."
"They will definitely try to cover it up; the authorities in Beijing are probably still dealing with the aftermath."
"We should have news in a couple of days."
Liu's words did not reassure Jiang Biehe, so Jiang Biehe said, "~but..."
"But what!"
Jiang Biehe was interrupted by Liu before he could finish speaking.
"Don't you know what you've done?"
"Li Chengqian has revealed the secret from back then, and now you've become a rat in the street in the martial arts world."
"If it weren't for Eunuch Cao sending people from the Eastern Depot to protect you, do you think you'd still be alive?"
"Let me tell you, Yu Feng is about to enter the palace to be selected as a concubine."
"If it's discovered that Yu Feng has such a bastard sister, do you think it will affect her career path?"
"If you really don't want to kill that bastard, I can let her go."
"But you need to think this through. What will become of you without the protection of the Eastern Depot?"
Liu looked at Jiang Biehe with a mocking expression.
In the end, Jiang Biehe took the knife from Liu's hand.
Outside the woodshed.
Two figures stood at the door.
"Oh, you bastard, you're really tough, you still can't die after all that."
Jiang Yuyan glanced indifferently at the knife in Jiang Biehe's hand.
"Father, are you trying to kill me?"
