too. I have already been betrothed by the Emperor, and in seven days I will be married into the Fourth Prince's Mansion. After that, there will be many opportunities for us to meet."The doctor, heari..."That is, we want a real saint, not Yao Feifei."

For a moment, all the clan members who opposed Yao Feifei becoming a saintess stood up, the scene spiraling out of control. Yao Qing's face was ashen, staring at the Holy Master's smiling face, he gritted his teeth with hatred. He hadn't expected her to have noticed, it seemed that selecting Feifei as the saintess was highly unlikely.

"Elder Yao, the will of the people is unstoppable, and so are the clan rules. Since I have a daughter, this position of Holy Master cannot be anyone else."

Yao Qing's face flushed alternately red and white. He never expected things to develop like this. Now, under the gaze of everyone present, it was impossible for him to propose Fei Fei as the Saintess.

"Lord, since you say you have a daughter, where is she After today's blessing ceremony, it's time for her to come out and meet everyone."

"Elder Yao, I'm still young, this position of Saint Lord, I can still sit firmly."

Yao Qingpi smiled, but her expression didn't change. "The Holy Lord is absolutely right," she said, "But how did I hear that the Holy Maiden fell off a cliff and died"

"Fell to his death"

Looking at the Yao people arguing, Feng Fu smiled and said, "Elder Yao, Xi'er did indeed fall off a cliff. However, to disappoint Elder Yao, she didn't die, and she is living well now, recuperating, and it will take some time before she can return to the Yao clan."

"Lord, do you have proof for this We don't want to wait for another saintess to be born. We can't afford it. The Yao Clan's saintess should have been born today. Lord, please don't deceive us and jeopardize the future of the Yao Clan."

"Zixing is on Xier's body, if something happens to her, the Yao clan will surely sense it. I ask Elder Yao, does anyone in the Yao clan sense anything now"

"As the Lord said, Elder Yao wants to make Yao Feifei a saintess. We cannot agree to this."

"Yao Feifei cannot be made a saint."

Feng Fu looked at Yao Qing's face turning pale with anger, a cold light flashed in her eyes.

Elder Yao strongly recommended his granddaughter for the position of Saintess today. According to the clan rules, how should this be handled

Yao Qing looked at Feng's Madam, and suddenly burst into laughter, "Yao Wan Ying, I didn't expect you to have seen through it already, yet you are still putting on such a show here. It seems I was too careless."

Feng Fuzi walked before Yao Qing, looking at the ferocity in his eyes, “Yao Qing, I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it. Don't blame me. Since you sent people to hunt me down, you have already doomed yourself to failure. I give you two choices: either commit suicide to apologize, or I will personally end you.”

"Yao Wan'ying, do you think I would lose to you"

Yao Qing unsheathed her sword and pointed it at Feng Fu Ren. Dugu Cheng and Ye Xi saw this and hurried out of the hall to help, but Yao Wan Ying stopped them.

"Yao Qing, if you commit suicide, I will not pursue others. If you persist in your folly, all those involved will be held equally guilty with you."

"Yao Wan Ying, you dare!"

Yao Qing's hand trembled with rage as she raised her sword, her gaze locked on Yao Wan Ying. Her eyes burned with cold fury, and she gritted her teeth in hatred, yet dared not strike.

"Bring the man out here."

Yao Wan Ying coldly reprimanded, and Yao Qing immediately saw his family members all tied up and brought before him. Upon seeing Yao Qing, they all lowered their heads. The mission failed, which meant their good days were over.

"Yao Qing, do you really think I am unaware of what you've been doing in the Yao Clan If you truly desire the position of Saint Lord, at least be more thorough in your actions. As things stand now, you will only ruin your family."

"If you release them, I will commit suicide to apologize."

Yao Qing dropped his sword to the ground and knelt. Yao Feifei watched her grandfather kneel, crying out and wanting to rush forward, but they held her back.

"Lord, may I speak with FeiFei for a few words"

Yao Qing looked at her crying granddaughter with a calm expression. After getting Yao Wan Ying's agreement, Yao Fei Fei was brought to Yao Qing's face. Looking at the Yao Clan members who were staring at them, Yao Qing reached out and wiped Yao Fei Fei's tears, "Fei Fei, don't cry."

"Grandpa, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I..."

Yao Qing watched her tears fall uncontrollably. Seeing them walk away, she lowered her voice and said, "Feifei, leave the Yao Clan and go find him for help. You must get the Purple Star, understand"

"Grandpa, granddaughter remembers."

Yao Feifei's tears were falling profusely. From the outside, it seemed like Yao Qing was doting on her granddaughter, demonstrating a deep bond between them. However, no one knew about the bigger conspiracy lurking behind Yao Qing's facade.

"Here, take this." Yao Qing took the jade pendant from her neck and put it on Yao Feifei. "This contains a map to the treasure trove, a copy I made. It's also your lucky charm, keep it safe."

Yao Feifei nodded tearfully, Yao Qing pushed her away, picked up the sword on the ground and placed it at her neck. Yao Feifei cried out and rushed over, but was held back by people on both sides.

"Yao Wan Ying, you said that as long as I commit suicide to apologize, you would let my family go."

Yao Wan'ying glanced at Yao Feifei, "That's natural."

"Phi Phi, after grandpa passes away, you leave the Yao Clan. You can go to any country you like and live your life incognito. Just don't come back to the Yao Clan."

"Grandpa!"

Yaofei cried out, Yaqing's eyes were wet, "Grandpa, I'm sorry."

"Grandpa, no!"

Yao Feifei charged at Yao Qing, but could only watch as her grandfather's sword slashed across his neck, blood splattering everywhere as he fell before her.

"Grandpa!"

Yao Feifei cried out and rushed over, Yao Waning signaled the people holding Yao Feifei to let go, allowing her to see Yao Qing off.

"Madam."

Du Gucheng quickly walked to Yao Wan'ying's side. What just happened was too fast, he really didn't expect Yao Qing to die right in front of him. Yesterday, he was still pondering how to trip up Yao Qing, but today the situation was settled, and Yao Qing lay dead before him.

This change happened too quickly.

"Lock them up and take Yao Qing's body down for a proper burial."

After giving her orders, Yao Wan Ying had all of Yao Qing's family taken away. She walked up to Dugu Cheng and said, "This happened suddenly, and I didn't have time to explain. The situation is settled now. Let's go into the hall and talk."

Dugu City nodded and followed Yao Wan'ying back to her palace. Only then did Yao Wan'ying explain the reason for the matter.

Originally, Yao Qing schemed to have Yao Feifei ascend the position of Saintess. To achieve this, she threatened several elders and clan members who then turned against her. She orchestrated today's events to expose Yao Qing's plot.

"This Yao Qing planned for over ten years, why is he so impulsive about this matter, it's not like his usual behavior."

Dugu Cheng frowned, still not believing that Yao Qing had failed. There was simply no reason for him to lose so quickly.

Perhaps he himself didn't expect that all the people he had arranged for so long would turn against him. No matter what, he lost.

Dugu Cheng nodded, "Wife, then what do you plan to do with Yao Qing's accomplices"

"The Yao people are not numerous. Those who remain here have only one purpose: to guard the secrets of our Yao clan. I believe you already know, it is the treasure of the Yao clan. Yao Qing betrayed our clan, and since I have promised Yao Qing that I would not kill his family, I can only confine them."was just thinking, would she be arsenic, masked in black, the only one who knows me is arsenic.""If it were her, why wouldn't she come to the Fourth Prince's Mansion to find you directly"Feng Lingxi s...
