Seeing Chisongzi saying that Yan Wenmo had already taught him a lesson, Xiaoyaozi looked at Yan Wenmo in surprise and couldn't help but question him:

"You have cultivation skills, and you're accepting disciples?!"

Yan Wenmo scratched his hair awkwardly and explained with an embarrassed look:

"Yes, there are two apprentices!"

Seeing Yan Wenmo admit it, Xiaoyaozi frowned and said with more disgust:

"It's really shameful that someone with great accomplishments could be bullied like this."

"They are using their status to pressure me. How can I, a mere servant, resist?!"

"Then why don't you become a direct disciple?! Why are you doing menial tasks?! With your status, are you qualified to do menial tasks?!"

"They don't want to accept disciples anymore. Even if I approached them, they wouldn't accept me. Besides, how would I know that you, Fourth Uncle, are also a cultivator, and a cultivator of the Haotian Sect? If I had known, I would definitely not do menial work."

"So, this is my fault?!"

"Fourth uncle, you haven't been seen all year round, and I can't find you. I'm also afraid that the Demon Lord will kill me, so saving my life is naturally the most important thing. If I hadn't endured the humiliation, you wouldn't have been able to see me. I'm afraid you would have to collect my body."

Xiaoyaozi was speechless after hearing her words. He could only glare at her fiercely, then stood up and said helplessly:

"I don't want to talk to you any more. You are so stupid. I don't know what your father has taught you over the years. I'm afraid you have learned everything from him."

As he spoke, he looked at the trembling Shangguan Zhi and Ouyang Xian, flexed his wrist, and then said coldly:

"Don't worry, you'll just have to lie down for a few days. I won't do anything heavy."

The next second, the heart-wrenching screams of several people resounded throughout the meeting hall, and everyone looked at Yan Wenmo, who had a look of excitement on his face, and swallowed silently.

Don’t despise the young because they are poor. This is true!!

"Is your anger gone now?"

Looking at Yan Wenmo who was drinking tea obediently opposite him with a cynical look on his face, Xiaoyaozi's expression was somewhat smug.

Yan Wenmo glanced at him, then put down his teacup and said unhappily:

"Uncle, don't you think you should give me an explanation? Dad always says that you are not doing your job properly and you are rarely seen all year round. But you went to the Haotian Sect to become a cultivator and don't care about the family's affairs at all?!"

The slightly complaining tone made Xiaoyaozi laugh awkwardly, then he looked aside as if to cover up and said to himself:

"I haven't seen you for ten years. Qingshuang, you have grown a lot and become more beautiful."

Yan Wenmo did not agree with his change of subject, but looked at him calmly. Seeing her like this, Xiaoyaozi could only sigh helplessly, and then said with some grievance:

"Qingshuang, don't blame Fourth Uncle. He was forced to do so. At the beginning, that old man said that I had amazing bones and was a martial arts genius, so I became his disciple. Who knew that he was actually a practitioner?"

At this point, he continued with an embarrassed look:

"You also know the family rules. You can't join the sect or even practice without permission. But since I'm already someone's apprentice, I can't ignore the master-apprentice relationship and run back home to inherit the family business. Therefore, I can only come to the Haotian Sect to learn skills secretly under the pretext of not doing my job properly."

Having said this, he subconsciously paused, and then said with a look of loss and regret:

"I thought I could keep it a secret forever, but who knew my family would suffer such a disaster? Even I may not be able to kill the enemy and avenge my people."

Having said this, he slammed the table heavily, his eyes full of anger and hatred, obviously he has been brooding over the fact that the Demon Lord destroyed the Yan family.

Seeing him like this, Yan Wenmo couldn't help but feel sad when she thought of her parents and the Yan family members who died tragically. She frowned and said in a low voice:

"I escaped because I broke off the engagement. It was a few days later when I heard the news."

At this point, she also sighed and said with a tired look:

"I don't know if the Demon Lord will hunt me down?! I don't know if there is a place for me in this huge world?! So I thought about finding a place that can shelter me so that I won't be found by the Demon Lord. Therefore, I came to the Haotian Sect and worked as a handyman."

Hearing this, Xiaoyaozi looked at Yan Wenmo with a distressed look on his face, and couldn't help but said with pity:

"If your father knew how much you suffered, I wonder how sad he would be."

At this point, he slapped himself viciously, leaving a clear and glaring mark on his face. He closed his eyes, lowered his head with regret and self-blame, and said:

"It's all Uncle's fault. If I hadn't been in a hurry to complete my master's mission, I wouldn't have failed to save your father, nor would I have failed to save all the tribesmen, leaving them with nothing but corpses. And you wouldn't have been bullied by these rats."

Yan Wenmo was shocked by Xiaoyaozi slapping himself, and then looked at his face full of self-blame and regret, and subconsciously whispered to comfort him:

"The moon waxes and wanes, people are subject to misfortunes and blessings at any time. Who can predict the affairs of the world?! Besides, if we had known everything earlier, how could we have so many regrets?"

Taking a deep breath, Xiaoyaozi knew that now was not the time to blame himself. Then he remembered Yan Wenmo's mention of breaking off the engagement, and couldn't help but look up at her in astonishment and asked:

"Broken engagement?! You went to the Jiang family to break off the engagement?! I was wondering why that kid from the Jiang family bullied you, but it turned out that you broke off the engagement?!"

Yan Wenmo nodded honestly, and then said to himself:

"Breaking off the engagement wasn't a whim, but... was there another reason?!"

In response to this, Xiaoyaozi said jokingly:

"What do you mean by another reason? I'm afraid you are used to seeing talented generals, so you naturally look down on an ordinary person like him. But Shuang'er, this time... you are wrong?!"

Yan Wenmo looked at Xiaoyaozi in surprise, not understanding what he meant, while Xiaoyaozi looked at Yan Wenmo with a smug look on his face, and said complacently:

"You are the patriarch's legitimate daughter, and my eldest brother's biological daughter, my niece. Therefore, when you were born, I asked my master, the former head of the Haotian Sect, to tell your fortune."

"This is not a good omen, is it?!"

"Yes, Master said that you have a very noble destiny, but you were born with a calamity, a love calamity that is a life-threatening one. If you want to break this destiny, you can only find someone with bad luck in their destiny, and let that person's bad luck break this love calamity, so that you can live a peaceful life."

"So, you found Jiang Wenbai?!"

"That boy has the most vicious and murderous aura in his fate. If he uses it to break your love calamity, it will be easy. That's why I personally went to the Jiang family and arranged this marriage for you. Now that you have broken off the engagement, you are afraid that you can't escape this love calamity of life and death?!"

"But didn't everyone in the tribe say it was because of saving their lives? How did it become something you decided on yourself?!"

"That was something I discussed with your father. It was an excuse I made up to shut those people up. It's not true!"

At this point, Xiaoyaozi's face became even more mocking. Yan Wenmo drank a sip of tea with an embarrassed look on her face, obviously not wanting to discuss this issue any more. Seeing her like this, Xiaoyaozi was unwilling to say more, but instead said:

"Forget it. Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Since you are not satisfied with this marriage, just withdraw from it. But your love tribulation is a life-and-death struggle that you may not be able to overcome. If you really want to avoid this love tribulation, you must not fall in love with a man. Otherwise, you know the outcome of this life-and-death struggle."

Yan Wenmo nodded carefully in response to Xiaoyaozi's advice, and seeing that Yan Wenmo took his advice to heart, Xiaoyaozi felt relieved.

He looked at the male disciple uniform on his niece and couldn't help but frowned, then said unhappily:

"How long are you going to wear that dress?! Do you want to wear it forever?! And your face, can't you change it back to its original appearance? You don't look good like this."

Yan Wenmo was inevitably embarrassed by Xiaoyaozi's disdain, but she hesitated for a while before saying seriously:

"Once the matter with the Demon Lord is done, I will change it back. It feels a bit inconvenient now."

In response to this, Xiaoyaozi sneered and said mockingly:

"What's inconvenient about it?! Since you've already called off the engagement, are you still afraid that he'll pester you?!"

"That's not true"

Yan Wenmo said frankly:

"I just don't want people around me to think that because I'm a woman, they should subconsciously give in to me and protect me. Even things like killing my enemies with my own hands require someone to do it for me. At least, I want to kill the Demon Lord with my own hands to avenge my parents and everyone in the Yan family."

Xiaoyaozi looked at Yan Wenmo's sincere and serious face and wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, they turned into a sentence:

"If you feel happy, just wear it, but don't forget, you are not alone. If you can't hold on, you still have your fourth uncle."

"I know"

Yan Wenmo smiled and said:

"Don't worry, Uncle. I will definitely find you if I need anything."
