"I'm also to blame," said Dabo, looking guilty and self - reproachful. "As their elder brother, I should have protected my younger siblings well, but I failed my duty."
Feng Yuqin never intended to blame the two children. Seeing them like this, she knew that at such a young age, they had already endured a great deal.
"This incident has nothing to do with you. You're still just children," Feng Yuqin comforted them. "Xiaolinger is out of danger, but we mustn't let those who hurt her go unpunished."
"Mother, don't worry. Most of the Xia family members have been captured. Those not caught are either in the Soul - Severing Sect or out on training or errands," Xiaobao immediately reported in detail what they had done.
"The Wu family has sent someone..." Dabo looked at his mother. "It's Aunt Xiaomian's clan."
"Regardless of who it is, with Father here, we can do as we please," Mo Xuanye's words were like a guarantee for his wife and children.
Dabo and Xiaobao thought so too.
The Xia family had really provoked them this time.
It was clearly Xia Tingting's fault, yet the Xia family had sent another group of experts to cause trouble for them.
"Who is causing trouble in the Xia family?" Just as Feng Yuqin and her family were about to enter the Xia family compound, a strong voice came from the other end.
Since Feng Yuqin's family was standing at the gate, many people inside the compound had already been poisoned by Dabo and Xiaobao.
With Feng Yi's help, it was extremely easy for Dabo and the others to obtain the poison that Xia Tingting had given to Xiaolinger. So Xia Tingting inside the compound couldn't escape either.
However, as soon as she sensed something was wrong, she used a communication jade to contact her newly - betrothed fiancé, Ran Yaowen, the son of the fourth elder of the Soul - Severing Sect.
Now hearing Ran Yaowen's voice, Xia Tingting was extremely excited.
"Yaowen... Yaowen... Save me..." Xia Tingting's excited voice came from inside the compound.
Ran Yaowen soon appeared in front of the Xia family's main gate.
He was stunned when he saw the faces of Feng Yuqin and her husband.
During the alchemy competition, Ran Yaowen was out, so he didn't recognize Feng Yuqin and Mo Xuanye.
Just as Ran Yaowen was wondering about their identities, Xia Tingting's continuous cries for help came from inside.
"Who are you? How dare you cause trouble in the Xia family?" Ran Yaowen shouted angrily.
Mo Xuanye's men had thoroughly investigated the Xia family's connections, so Feng Yuqin knew that the man standing in front of her was Ran Yaowen, the son of the fourth elder of the Soul - Severing Sect.
Feng Yuqin's cold gaze fell on Ran Yaowen. "If you leave now, I won't involve you."
"Presumptuous!" Ran Yaowen was immediately enraged. He was really annoyed by Feng Yuqin's arrogant attitude.
"So you've decided to help the Xia family?" Feng Yuqin asked coldly.
Mo Xuanye stood beside Feng Yuqin like a protector. Seeing Ran Yaowen being so arrogant, he waved his hand. Ran Yaowen, who was originally standing outside the gate, was instantly sent tumbling into the courtyard inside. And he landed right beside Xia Tingting.
"Yaowen?" Xia Tingting was startled by the sudden commotion. She thought it was those two little demons, Dabo and Xiaobao, attacking her again. But when she looked closely, she found it was Ran Yaowen.
Ran Yaowen didn't expect this man to attack him. He was immediately furious. "Do you know who I am? How dare you attack me? You don't want to live anymore?"
As a member of one of the eight major sects, Ran Yaowen knew very well who not to provoke.
The major forces were worried that their disciples might provoke those they shouldn't, so they would send portraits and information about untouchable forces and figures to the core disciples.
Feng Yuqin was a newly - emerged alchemy genius, and her portrait hadn't reached Ran Yaowen in time. So although Ran Yaowen thought these two were extremely beautiful and had an extraordinary aura, he didn't know that there were such important figures in the major forces. Naturally, he didn't think their identities were noble.
The Ran family had set their eyes on the Xia family's poisons, which was why they came up with the idea of a marriage alliance. Now that the Xia family was in trouble, Ran Yaowen naturally wanted to protect them.
"Aren't you just the son of the fourth elder of the Soul - Severing Sect? Who else could you be?" Feng Yuqin walked in at this moment, accompanied by Mo Xuanye and the two children.
Xing Zhuojia and her brother were also in the crowd. When they saw Feng Yuqin, their pupils constricted suddenly, and they immediately understood who had come to cause trouble for the Xia family.
They usually lived in the Xia family, so they couldn't escape this incident either. The siblings were standing beside Xing Mengyao and her son.
At first, when Xing Mengyao sensed something was wrong, she wanted Xing Zhuojia and her brother to take her son away. But unfortunately, Feng Yi was too fast and immediately set up a barrier. Except for the main gate, which was freely accessible, no one could enter or leave other areas. So the Xing siblings had no choice but to stay and wait for an opportunity to leave. After all, no one else knew, but the Xing siblings had met Mo Xuanye in the Outer Realm and knew that this man was a couple with Feng Yuqin. Moreover, this man had taken the position of the leader of the All - World Alliance. So after the competition, Xing Zhuojia decided not to cause trouble for Feng Yuqin openly, but she could still take some secret actions. However, she didn't even have the chance before she was dragged down by that stupid Xia Tingting.
"Since you know who I am, why don't you leave quickly?" Ran Yaowen stood up and looked at Feng Yuqin arrogantly.
Feng Yuqin looked at him as if he were an idiot. "So what? Do you think I'm afraid of the Soul - Severing Sect?"
Ran Yaowen was speechless and looked at Feng Yuqin in disbelief.
But Feng Yuqin was already too lazy to care about him.
Her gaze swept across the courtyard. She saw that all these people were poisoned. They were rolling on the ground in pain, vomiting green or black blood all over the place. The scene was... unbearable to look at.
The incident in the Xia family quickly spread to the ears of the major forces. So many people were curious about what was going on. When they came to take a look, they found Feng Yuqin and Mo Xuanye. Seeing the way Mo Xuanye stood beside Feng Yuqin, smart people immediately understood that this was not something they could get involved in.
The old master of the Xia family had also informed the Wu family. The Wu family would surely send someone to check.
"What? You mean that Feng Yuqin is the one who won first place in this alchemy competition?"
"Yes, it's her. And the black - robed man beside her is the one who is always with the leader of the All - World Alliance." The Wu family members quickly found out about this.
The head of the Wu family fell silent after hearing this. If it were just Feng Yuqin, it would be okay. She was just a newly - emerged genius. As long as they were tough enough, they could deal with her. But with that black - robed man around, the Wu family hesitated. They didn't dare to provoke him. But they could report this to the All - World Alliance.
"If it's that black - robed man, since we can't handle it, we have to seek help," the head of the Wu family said.
The All - World Alliance managed the entire Xuan Yu Realm. Unfair incidents could be reported to the Law - Enforcement Realm of the All - World Alliance.
When the Wu family reported the news to the All - World Alliance, they only received one sentence: The Xia family all deserve it.
