Heaven Defying Medical Consort - Chapter 38

Chapter 38: These People Are Really Stupid!

Xiao Liangxiao went back and immediately called the people who followed them!

“No matter what happens, just push the blame to Xiao Muling!” she ordered in a low voice.

“Don’t worry, Miss,” replied the middle-aged men and left.

They were all Xiao family members that Xiao Liuce had roped in over the years. They were also selected from the side branches to be the main family. However, their talent was average compared to the others, so they weren’t taken seriously.

After Xiao Liuce’s provocation, they immediately switched sides. They even felt that they would be placed in important positions once Xiao Liuce took over!

And they were also waiting for that day!

After they left, Xiao Liangxiao sneered. ‘As long as the matter regarding the Xiao family is pushed onto Xiao Muling, all the rationality of those family members will disappear.’

Letting a useless person stay in the main family had already made many people unhappy. Now, for a piece of trash’s sake, she actually attacked a member of their lineage. If they heard it, they would probably want to eat Xiao Muling!

‘If the Patriarch still wants to protect Xiao Muling, then perhaps… Punishment!’

Xiao Liangxiao was punished? The end?

Xiao Liuce was sent out of the Xiao family!? As well as Xiao Liuyuan and his son?

Four of the five elders had been deposed!?

Early the next morning, these pieces of news had already spread throughout the Xiao family, and everyone from the Xiao family gathered together.

Those on Xiao Liuce’s side could not remain calm! Although they knew the reason for the punishment was that the four elders had protected Xiao Liangxiao and the others, it was all because of Xiao Muling!

‘Xiao Muling is a good-for-nothing. Why would he punish someone from the Xiao family for her?’

‘How can this be? It’s probably the Patriarch taking revenge for his personal grudges!’

Thinking that it had something to do with Xiao Muling and that Xiao Liangxiao and Xiao Liuce were implicated, the Xiao family members were even more agitated.

‘We have to get the family leader to withdraw his orders. How can such unfair orders be allowed?!’

“If the family leader doesn’t change his orders, how can he be the family leader when he is so unfair?!” An angry voice rang out from the crowd.

Everyone was stunned for a moment before their minds heated up. Everyone became excited!

They would never be rational when it came to Xiao Muling.

Xiao Muling couldn’t cultivate and had always occupied the position of Eldest Young Lady. She had also been living in the main household and was personally protected by the family leader.

How many people were jealous of this? However, she was the chief’s daughter, so they couldn’t say anything.

Now that the family leader was so foolish for her, how could they tolerate it?!

‘The Patriarch is too unfair and sided with Xiao Muling for no reason. What family leader is he?!’

The Xiao family members started to cause a ruckus very quickly. All of them aggressively walked toward the Patriarch’s courtyard, wanting Xiao Canglan to withdraw these orders!

There was nothing to discuss regarding this matter. They had to rescind the punishment and then chase Xiao Muling out of the main family!

This time, no matter what the Patriarch said, they would not give in!

Xiao Liangxiao looked at the noisy scene outside and smiled proudly. ‘Xiao Muling, let’s see what else you can do!’

Xiao Longxuan stood outside the main gate of the family leader’s courtyard. He glanced at the group walking over aggressively with a calm expression. “The chief is waiting for everyone at the training grounds.”

He said this lightly and walked to the side.

Hearing this, everyone was stunned. ‘The family leader is waiting for us? Could it be that the family leader knows that his punishment is too severe and wants to cancel it?’

Thinking of this, the anger in their hearts dissipated. ‘It seems like the family leader is quite understanding. Things will probably be easily resolved.’

“Let’s go and see how the family leader will cancel the punishment for Miss Liangxiao.”

“Right, let’s all go take a look.”

“To the training grounds.”

…

The noisy scene once again started at the martial arts arena.

On a tall building, Xiao Muling had her hands behind her back. Not far away was the training ground.

At that moment, dust and sand were flying in the air.

From the flying dust, she knew how many people had come.

There were more than 2,000 disciples of the Xiao family, and at least 70% of them were here for Xiao Liangxiao. The rest were probably here to watch the show. Therefore, the entire Xiao family was here.

Xiao Canglan looked at the person walking over. His gaze turned deep, and his face was filled with anger.

Xiao Muling saw Xiao Canglan’s gloomy side profile and said with a smile, “Father, it won’t be so easy for you to suppress this situation.”

Xiao Canglan pursed his lips. ‘Ling’er is right. This is practically everyone in the Xiao family.’

“Father, why don’t you listen to me this time?” Xiao Muling looked over and gazed at Xiao Canglan with a faint smile.

Xiao Canglan faced her. Seeing her confident appearance, he felt even more gratified.

Just as he was about to speak, Xiao Qing rushed over. As he looked at the people who had appeared on the training grounds, he frowned. ‘These people are really stupid! They don’t even realize that they’re being used!’

“Chief.” Xiao Longxuan walked over at this moment and greeted him respectfully. He then looked toward Xiao Muling.

Looking at Xiao Muling, his eyes were filled with doubt. ‘This Eldest Young Lady has always been timid, but now that she’s standing beside the chief today, she actually gives me the feeling of being enveloped by a powerful aura! She’s standing there and isn’t suppressed by the chief’s aura at all!

‘What’s happened in the past few days? How could a person change so quickly? And in such a short period of time, she has gained such an imposing manner! She’s like an expert!’

Xiao Muling felt Xiao Longxuan’s gaze and turned around.

Xiao Longxuan saw her gaze and quickly looked away.

Xiao Muling didn’t care about his actions. He wasn’t going to be the main character in the later act anyway.

Everyone rushed to the martial arts arena. They thought that they would be able to see Xiao Canglan, but they didn’t see him after arriving.

They looked around in confusion, not understanding what this meant.

He called them over, but the chief was nowhere to be seen.

Xiao Canglan saw that everyone was here and led Xiao Muling downstairs.

“Can Ling’er do it?” he asked.

“Yes.” Xiao Muling knew what he was asking.

“Are you scared?” he asked again.

“No,” Xiao Muling replied with a smile. ‘What is there to be afraid of? If I had the strength I had in the past, not to mention these Xiao family people, I wouldn’t even take other experts seriously! It’s just that I had to start all over again, but my cultivation is still the same.’

She wasn’t as strong as them, but she still had her father as her backer.

“Okay,” he agreed.

The smile in Xiao Muling’s eyes deepened. When she saw that scene, bloodlust flashed across her eyes. ‘I will not disappoint Father!’

In midair, a black figure silently walked over and immediately found her. Then, a faint smile appeared on his face.

The commotion outside was unceasing. The elder’s courtyard was tilted toward the rear courtyard, so he could hear it.

Xiao Yi looked outside. “What’s going on?”

The four elders behind looked at each other and quickly walked over. “They’re probably going to announce the punishment.”

Xiao Yi looked at the sky and said, “Almost.”

When they heard this, they glanced at each other and heaved a sigh of relief. ‘As long as Xiao Yi doesn’t go, Xiao Canglan will speak alone. Nobody in the Xiao family will believe him then!’
