The Lady's Sickly Husband

C132. The Xie Family

The Wang village was as quiet as usual.

A hidden guard came over and whispered to Asan, who left for a moment and soon came back, entering the room to report to Ning Shaoqing.

"Lord, we found two people sneaking around in the forest near the village."

Gloom flashed in Ning Shaoqing's heart, but his expression remained unchanged. He didn't talk, fingers tapping gently on the table, and waited to hear more.

"I planned to capture them alive, but to my surprise, they killed themselves by biting their tongues. It's my fault. Please punish me."

Ning Shaoqing raised his eyes, gestured Asan to get up, and said calmly, "Have you figured out who they were?" Although the people died, there must be clues that couldn't be concealed.

"Thanks for forgiving me." Asan stood up and replied loudly, "I've carefully examined them. They turned out to be men of sacrifice from the Xie family."

"Already here?" Ning Shaoqing stood up and paced, murmuring to himself, as if this was exactly within the scope of his prediction.

People would come sooner or later, but he hadn't expected that the first batch should be people—men of sacrifice, of the Xie family! It seemed that those two people were going to every extreme in order to put him to death.

The heartless woman's surname was exactly Xie. Since the two dead men came from the Xie family, then they must have been sent over by the disgusting mother and son.

However, they must have never thought that borrowing power from the Xie family would only lead the wolf into their own room.

The noble families valued benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and trust most, at least on the surface. Now with this sin of plotting to murder his own brother, even if Ning Shaoyu really took over the power and became the master of the Ning family, he would still be held captive by the whole clan.

Over time, the Ning family would be controlled by the Xie family.

What a hideous plot of the Xie family! Once the Ning family fell into its hand, it would not only cease to thrive but also lose its foundation that had been laid by ancestors through centuries.

The stupid mother and son!

Concern and anger passed by. The sense of responsibility surged to Ning Shaoqing's heart. Since he was going to take back what he deserved, then he wouldn't allow any trace of harm done to his possessions.

He had given them a chance, so if they didn't appreciate it, then don't blame him for being merciless.

However, as he frowned and displayed ruthlessness on his brow, an ominous idea occurred to him.

Ning Shaoqing smelt a rat, pulling his face and shouted in a low voice, "No!" Meanwhile he rushed out.

Outside the room, he leaped to stand on the wall, taking a glance at Asan who chased out from the room, squinting his eyes and ordered in a second.

"There is a change. We're setting off in a moment. I'm going to pick up lady. You and Shiwu pack up everything and quickly catch up. Let's meet on the way to Tianxiang."

Upon finishing, Ning Shaoqing's body had already sprinted meters away, leaving behind him a illusion of prolonged figure. Certainly, the shadow guard followed with him.

The people behind her was catching up. Mo Qianxue took a deep breath, stopped and turned around.

She didn't know light kungfu. In such a short distance, it was nearly impossible for her to escape.

Only two men caught up. Probably, they believed two men were enough to catch a woman who didn't know martial art. Or probably the others were intercepted by Chuyi.
