Chapter 21: Deliberately Ostracizing

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“I think there’s a misunderstanding. Maybe Yan Hu knocked out the magical beast but didn’t expect it to still be alive.” As soon as he saw that the other party was Yan Hu, Yan Sheng immediately became the peacemaker.

“Uncle Sheng, you claim to be really fair and impartial in handling matters,” Yan Xi said slowly. “However, when I saved Yan Gu before, you accused me of picking a fight and bullying people in private. Just now, if I didn’t run so fast, I would have been bitten to death by the magical beast. However, the first thing you said was that it was a misunderstanding. The way you handle matters is very interesting, Uncle Sheng.”

Yan Xi’s sarcasm was like a slap to Yan Sheng’s face, tearing off his facade of impartiality.

Feeling the strange gazes around him, Yan Sheng was so angry that he jumped up. His Profound Qi overflowed, and he looked at Yan Xi with a fierce gaze. “Yan Xi, how can you speak to your elders like that? If your father didn’t teach you to respect your elders, I’ll teach you!”

“What’s wrong? Uncle Sheng, you want to make a move on me, a child who can’t cultivate?” Yan Xi raised her eyebrows.

Her words made Yan Sheng deflate like a popped balloon. His expression was dark and uncertain. The boiling Profound Qi in his body gradually calmed down. He flicked his sleeve angrily.

Yan Sheng’s reaction made Yan Hong frown. In the end, he did not say anything. He could only nod at the other members of the hunting team. “Tell me what happened.”

“When we came back just now, Yan Hu suddenly threw the tusked boar at Yan Xi. We don’t know what happened, but the tusked boar came back to life and started to attack everyone.”

Elder Hong’s image of an iron-fisted law enforcer was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the person who spoke did not dare lie.

Elder Hong looked serious and pointed at two law enforcement hall disciples. “Yan Hu deliberately used the magical beast to hurt people because of personal grievances. This is against the Yan family’s rules. Take him to the law enforcement hall to receive fifty lashes. You guys take him to receive his punishment.”

Two people wearing the law enforcement hall’s uniforms were pushed away by Yan Hu as soon as they went up. He was tall and strong, and his strength was much greater than others. “I’ll go by myself.”

When he passed by Yan Xi, he stopped and lowered his voice. “I’ve already heard about Yan Lan. You’re lucky to have encountered the Holy Son today. You won’t be so lucky next time.”

Although he had lowered his voice, many of the people around him were cultivators. They heard him clearly.

Yan Hong saw that not only was he not repenting, but he was also threatening Yan Xi. He said angrily, “Yan Hu! You still dare to threaten your own kind! Ten more lashes!”

“Let’s wait and see,” Yan Xi’s clear black eyes looked at him calmly.

When that pair of eyes looked over, Yan Hu was stunned and then he frowned and looked away.

Yan Hong was having a headache. Forget about Yan Hu, he was already a thorn in the Yan family’s side. Why did Yan Xi join in the fun?

Although Yan Sheng intended to make Yan Hu the Guardian of Yan Lan, he was only a branch disciple after all. His status was not as noble as the Holy Son and the others. Once the matter was settled, he went to greet Yun Yuhan and the others with flattery and enthusiasm.

His expression and mannerisms were completely different from when he had been talking to Yan Xi.

He was not the only one who was like this. Most of the Yan family members surrounded Yun Yuhan and the others, asking about their well-being and their studies.

Ji San, who had been standing next to Yan Xi, was also surrounded by a group of people, and Yan Xi was squeezed out.

Many of them were young girls of the Yan family, both from the main family and from the branch family. These young men and women from the aristocratic families of the Longyuan Empire were of higher status than the royal family of the Muyun Kingdom.

They did not have much of a chance with outstanding and unattainable people like Yun Yuhan. However, they could still try their luck with others!

Yan Xi had no interest in why Yun Yuhan and the other students of Imperial College had come to see the Yan family. She took the opportunity to step out of the crowd and held Yan Chushi’s chubby hand, ready to leave.

However, just as she brought Yan Chushi away from the crowd, a voice rang out.

“Yan Xi, what are you doing with Yan Chushi?”

Yan Xi turned her head and saw that the person who spoke was Yan Hong.

She still had a good impression of Yan Hong.

Yan Hong’s personality was rigid and impartial. He did not know how to suck up to the powerful and was once deeply respected by Yan Wufeng.

When the original body’s resources were embezzled, he had taken action and directly punished those wicked servants.

However, it was also because of this that he was ostracized by Yan Sheng. Later on, his authority became lower and lower, and he was stripped of his position by Yan Sheng and only returned yesterday.

“Elder Hong, we have no classes today. I’ll take Chushi out shopping and come back in the evening,” Yan Xi said with a smile. There was no trace of her previous unruly aura.

Yan Xi had always been good-tempered with the elders who had shown kindness to her.

“You’re going shopping at this time? Come back inside!” Yan Hong frowned and said in a rough voice. He stood out of the crowd in his black robes.

He was the only elder who did not follow Yun Yuhan and the others. Instead, he separated himself from the crowd and came to talk to Yan Xi.

Yan Xi stroked her chin and looked at him strangely, not knowing why he had stopped them.

“The Imperial College has something important to discuss. You and Yan Chushi are the direct descendants of the main branch. It’s your duty to be informed and involved,” Yan Hong said.

Yan Xi really did not have a good impression of those snobbish students, and she did not want to see Yun Yuhan even more. The corners of her mouth twitched. “Elder Hong, Chushi and I can’t help much. We’d better not go…”

“Yes, Elder Hong, Xixi and I don’t have high cultivation. It’s useless to listen for us to go.” Yan Chushi nodded.

He did not really like the people from Imperial College either. Not to mention Yun Yuhan, the scumbag who hurt Xixi, Ji San was also particularly annoying and always stuck to Xixi!

In the past, he and Yan Xi had always been ostracized and embarrassed at family meetings.

However, Elder Hong did not listen to them. He walked over with a straight face and scooped one of them in each hand. “You both have to go! Why can’t you go shopping another day? You’re not young anymore, it’s time for you to take part in the family’s affairs. It must not be a small matter for the Holy Son to come personally. Both of you, go to the meeting hall and listen!”

Yan Xi and Yan Chushi looked at each other and sighed in unison.

By the time they arrived at the meeting hall, most of the people were already seated.

Yan Zhongshan was still sitting in the main seat.

No matter how talented Yun Yuhan was, he was still junior to Yan Zhongshan. As the Yan family’s head and a cultivator at the ninth level of the Mystical King Realm, Yan Zhongshan naturally had to sit in the main seat.

However, this time, the Yan family treated their guests with the utmost respect. Although it could be seen from the details that the preparations were somewhat rushed, it was enough to show the importance that the Yan family attached to Yun Yuhan and the others. Even the most respected elders in the Yan family were only seated with them. The remaining elders and disciples in charge of the other branches were all arranged in order and took the lower seats.

When Yan Xi and the others went in, she saw that the seats for Yan Wufeng’s and Yan Wuya’s direct lines were gone.

After Yan Hong found his seat and sat down, he also found that the large hall had no seats prepared for Yan Xi and the others!

Yan Xi and Yan Chushi stood in the middle of the hall. Everyone was sitting, and only the two of them were standing, which made them seem out of place.

Yan Sheng’s eyes flashed with disdain and ridicule, but he pretended to be angry. He called for the butler, Yan Ping, and said loudly, “Yan Ping, what are you doing? Why didn’t you prepare seats for Yan Xi and Yan Chushi?”
