The business of the Huang family was very prosperous in the past. Yet recently, there was a problem with it.
"So people try to make our business look bad." Huang Donghai’s put the chopsticks back on the table after he had done eating.
After everyone finished eating, they started to drink tea and wanted to talk in detail about the business, but it wasn’t convenient since many people besides their family mbers were present.
Huang Donghai looked at Shenlian Yingyue, Shenlian Wanyan, and Huang Bai Xing for a brief mont before he nodded to let everyone (the Huang mbers) talk.
"Yes, they said that the foods at our restaurants were unhygienic because when they returned ho, they had been having diarrhea and their stomachs were hurt." The first uncle reported.
"There’s a problem on this side. The sheep got caught with a strange disease recently. They couldn’t eat or drink, so they failed to produce wool for us." The second uncle uttered it solemnly.
The Huang family opened two businesses. One was the restaurant business, which was widely known to everyone in every city in the Outer Domain.
The second one was the wool business. The Huang family knew the thod of raising the best sheep to get the best wool for selling. When it ca to raising the best sheep, none of the families here could beat the Huang family.
"Did you check the chefs?"
"I did. It’s very suspicious. The kitchens are clean, but whenever the foods were sent to the custors, there were insects inside."
"For our farms, the workers there have no problem. I’ve checked the foods and water that we need to feed the sheep. I’ve found nothing. Both foods and water are fine."
The two uncles and the six elders took turns reporting one by one what they’d found out when they went to check their shops in other cities.
Huang Donghai’s eyes turned cold as he listened to their reports.
"Father, soone is ssing with us." Huang Sicong’s eyes flashed with a sharp light.
"These are the na lists of those whom we suspect did all of these." The elders and the two uncles handed him the lists of the workers and slaves who worked for them.
"They can never be able to do these without soone’s instructions." Huang Donghai looked at the lists containing the nas and origins of the workers and ca to a conclusion.
There was nothing wrong with the background of these workers and slaves. Nevertheless, he would never believe that they were not connected to anyone.
"Father, who do you suspect?" Huang Dongle asked straightforwardly.
"Daughters, what do you think?" Huang Donghai unexpectedly shifted his eyes to Shenlian Yingyue and Huang Bai Xing.
Everyone’s attention imdiately focused on them.
"Not many people dare to provoke our family." Shenlian Yingyue calmly uttered as she suddenly looked directly at several people.
Everyone who was smart instantly understood her aning.
Her words were not directed at anyone, but so people were uneasy.
"This has nothing to do with the Liu family!"
"This has nothing to do with my Chen family."
Both Liu Zii and Chen Lingyun uttered it at the sa ti.
The first elder and the fifth elder sweated slightly under the invisible pressure; they didn’t know who put it on them.
After that, their faces changed.
Huang Donghai sneered slightly. It turned out that he had been raising and loving the snakes all these years.
"Husband, we...." Both of them panicked.
"Calm down. Why are you sweating?" Huang Bai Xing laughed.
Her cold laugh made those who were guilty panic even more. Sohow, they were not very scared of Huang Donghai, but these two girls.
"The enemies are near. Father, would you mind if I wanted to handle this matter for you? I’ll make sure they pay the heavy price of ruining us." Huang Bai Xing’s cold breath enveloped everyone.
"You have my permission." Huang Donghai nodded.
"Patriarch, this..." The others disagreed. She was just a younger generation; what could she do? Why did he give her such an important job? What if she sses it up?
"I have always wanted to ask since we are all here." Her next words caught their attention. She then asked in a low tone, "Do you know why I couldn’t practice in the past?"
Everyone was puzzled. Why did she suddenly bring this up?
No one noticed the dark light flashing in the eyes of Chen Lingyun and the fifth elder.
Shenlian Yingyue suddenly stood up, startling everyone. She then ignored everyone’s eyes and walked to Huang Bai Xing’s side.
Each of her steps brought pressure to people unknowingly, as if they were facing a powerful being.
"Sister?"
Shenlian Wanyan, Mu Anwen, Sima Ke Xin, Su Lanfei, Yuelan Rouxuan, and Yao Yanzi were confused.
Huang Bai Xing and Sikong Wenxia fixed their eyes on her. Ju Fulin played with the old mirror in his arms that Huang Bai Xing gave him.
It seed like nothing could catch his attention more than the ancient antiques.
Shenlian Yingyue leaned over and whispered sothing in Huang Bai Xing’s ears instead of using telepathy with her divine sense, as if she wanted certain people to know that she knew sothing.
At first, Huang Bai Xing doubted. Shenlian Yingyue stuffed sothing in her palm.
Huang Bai Xing put the recording stone into her portable space ring, and her spiritual sense imdiately went inside the ring.
As she finished listening to the dialogue from the recording stone, her doubt turned into murderous rage.
"Don’t destroy my stone, or I’ll let you pay." Shenlian Yingyue stopped her from destroying the recording stone because of her wrath.
Although she wasn’t poor, she wasn’t rich either. She needed to save money to raise her family well.
Haung Bai Xing’s lips twitched slightly. She gave the stone back to Shenlian Yingyue before she continued her anger.
Everyone: "...."
Can people pause their anger?
"Father, give two days; I’ll bring you the heads of those who dare to betray us." Huang Bai Xing coldly smiled as she crushed the teacup in her hand into pieces.
Everyone felt a chill run down their spine. Especially the people who had the idea of getting rid of her. Who did they provoke?
At first, Huang Bai Xing thought of leaving a chance for Liu Zii and Chen Lingyun since they were her father’s wives. She considered letting them go and only destroyed those families.
But now, even if her father stopped her, she would not let them have another chance to hurt her.
Everyone suspiciously looked at both of them. What was going on?
"Xing’er, can you solve it in two days? In fact, you don’t have to waste your ti here. The father can handle the matter for you." Huang Donghai asked with concern.
