Bei Gong Xiong’s expression turned even uglier. It had been so many years since anyone had dared to speak to him this way! Especially so for the younger generation. Each and every single one of them displayed obedient expressions when they were in front of him. She was the first one to rebut him and even threaten him!
In the past, he had seen this brat before as well. Although she was a little stubborn, she was never that obstinate. She had changed since she ran away all those years ago.
However, he didn’t like this change one single bit!
“Steward Wan has already told you that your mother and brother passed away many years ago. It’s no use harping on this!” If you still want to remain as a member of the Bei Gong clan, then get in here. Don’t stay outside and embarrass yourself!” He scolded.
“You just used my mother passing away as an excuse to thwart my uncle many years ago. Did you think I would believe you?” Bei Gong Tang looked at Bei Gong Xiong, “Tell me. Do you really believe this?”
“That is the truth!”
“Truth? The truth is that you plotted against my mother that year and got her married to Bei Gong Ao in an attempt to steal their secret methods. It was a pity that my mother knew about your evil hearts and refused to divulge the secret. That was why she was scolded and beaten by you all those years.” Bei Gong Tang said coldly, “After those years, you realised that you had no way of getting the secret method from my mother, so you got Bei Gong Ao to marry the Earth Palace’s princess, Gun Yun Er to make our lives even more miserable. Being beaten and scolded were common occurrences, and injuries were part of our daily life. Don’t tell me that you Bei Gong Clan leader was unaware!”
” You… damn girl. I’m going to kill you!” Bei Gong Ao charged over and heard what she said the moment he arrived. He was so angry that he attacked her immediately
Honor Roc immediately came beside Bei Gong Tang and deflected the blow with a wave of his hand.
Bei Gong Tang looked at Honor Roc gratefully. When Sima You Yue had left, she got Ninth Roc and Honor Roc to stay behind to protect her.
“What, are you afraid that I’ll reveal all the skeletons in the Bei Gong clan’s closet? You want to kill me to silence me?” She looked at Bei Gong Ao, who tried to kill her the moment he arrived. She smiled icily, “Even a tiger, however cruel, doesn’t kill its own cubs. That year, you closed your eyes when Gun Yun Er and Bei Gong Er tried to kill me. Today, the first thing you tried to do when you saw me was also to kill me. This only shows me one thing. You’re worse than an animal!”
“Damn girl! How did I give birth to a wretch like you!” Bei Gong Ao cursed her. He was so upset that his face was red.
“How you gave birth to me? I’m afraid that I should be asking you how you plotted against my mother instead! Aren’t you the clearest about this?” Bei Gong Tang spat maliciously. She saw Bei Gong Ao’s reddened face and her smile was brilliant, “What? Seeing how angry you are, could it be that you’re especially regretting that you didn’t manage to kill me off cleanly back then?”
“It’s not too late for me to punish my own family for the sake of justice today! For a wretch like you, it would be better if you were never born!”
After speaking, Bei Gong Ao tried to kill Bei Gong Tang again.
Honor Roc stood in front of Bei Gong Tang, blocking Bei Gong Ao’s hand from striking.
The other party had merely used a glance to completely immobilise him!
“There is a clan of four winged rocs in the south.” Bei Gong Xiong said when he looked at Ninth Roc.
“This old coot has lived for so many years. Those who live longer really have different life experiences, right Zi Qi?” Fatty Qu and the others had been quiet all along, and suddenly voiced out.
“Pfft-” Those around burst out laughing at their short conversation.
Bei Gong Xiong saw Honor Roc and said, “The reach of your southern clan is really too far. You’ve actually come to meddle in the central regions!”
“Our King has told us to use our utmost efforts to help Young Miss Bei Gong rescue her mother.” Honor Roc said icily. He didn’t give a single damn about the Bei Gong clan at all.
That condescending remark caused the entire Bei Gong clansmen to frown. This four winged roc clan was supposed to be in the south, but because they were strong, most people did not wish to fight with them. The seventh prefecture in the north had once offended them, and they had come out in full force. The entire clan invaded the seventh north prefecture and turned the clan upside down. Since then, the name of the four winged roc clan had spread far and wide.
“We’ve already told you that your mother is already dead. It’s impossible for us to hand her over even if you want her now.”
“Really? But I’ve received news that my sister is still alive. She’d merely been imprisoned in your underground prison for a few years.” A voice came from the back of the crowd, and everyone parted for him. Yin Hao walked to the front with a few other people he brought with him.
“Yin Hao, what are you doing here?” Bei Gong Ao glared at the people who just came.
“I heard that my niece had returned and come for my sister. Naturally, I came to see if there was anything I could help out with.” Yin Hao said, “I came that year and asked to meet my sister, but you told me that she had already died. From what I heard my niece today, it seems that she had been bullied back then! Although my clan was angry that my sister married Bei Gong Ao, she is still the Young Miss of the Bei Gong clan. Shouldn’t you give me an explanation? Is my sister alive or dead?”
“Uncle.” Bei Gong Tang called out to Yin Hao.
“Good girl. The Yin Clan’s elders have lived for so many years, they’ve become muddled today. If you want to do something,?just go forth and do it! Don’t worry, I, your uncle, will support you!” Yin Hao patted Bei Gong Tang’s head.
A kind of warmth rose in her heart. It was different from the warmth that she felt from associating with You Yue and the others. This was a kind of family affection that was different from the one she received from her mother and brother.
“Yin Hao, don’t think that you can come here and make a mess just because you are someone from the central regions. My Bei Gong clan has not done anything against the mother and son pair.” Someone from the Bei Gong clan shouted.
“That’s right. Since you’ve brought people here, could it be that you want to attack the Bei Gong clan?” An elder said, “I’m afraid that your Yin elder would kick you out of the clan if he found out!”
Yin Hao took out a name plate and said, “I’m here to represent the Yin Clan, so whatever I say is whatever the Yin cla says. That old man from our Yin Clan has said that if I am unable to take my sister back today, I can just use this name plate to strike myself on the head and die.”
“Uncle?” Bei Gong Tang looked at Yin Hao in shock. This was different from what they had discussed.
“When I went back, I bumped into that old guy and told him about this. It could be that he had finally connected with us, and revived his conscience. He even let me bring you home.”
Going home… Bei Gong Tang pondered over these two words. They were two very simple and warm words. However, she had never felt it before.
“We have already told you. They are already dead. If you don’t believe us, you can go in and look for her.”?Bei Gong Xiong cried out.
“You’ve hidden her away so deeply that we wouldn’t be able to find her even if we went to look for her. However, we already have someone who has gone in to rescue her. Once she’s out, we’ll be completely done with your Bei Gong clan!” Bei Gong Tang said, “As of now, I have no relations with your Bei Gong clan at all!”
“Screech-”
As if accompanying her words, a bird’s cry was heard from inside the Bei Gong clan. After which, a goshawk flew in from the back. Bei Gong Xiong and the others’ saw the people sitting on it, and their pupils shrank.
