My wife who comes from a wealthy family-Chapter 29 - 30 Midnight Murderous Intent

"Hum!"

The bald man’s mind went blank, and he stood there dumbfounded.

He would never have guessed that this was what the female demon lord meant.

"List my junior brother as an SSS-level wanted criminal in the Martial Department now, immediately!" the aloof and domineering lady commanded.

"I can’t fulfill such a request, my dear. Only the bigwigs at the Martial Department’s headquarters have the authority to declare someone an SSS-level wanted criminal," the bald man replied with a bitter smile and bowed his head, "Please spare me, Miss!"

"Anyway, I’ve said my piece. Either set him as an SSS-level wanted criminal or drop the case entirely, don’t embarrass yourself!"

With her arms crossed, the aloof lady spoke indifferently, "Lightning Baldy, considering that you were once a servant in my house, I’m giving you a friendly warning. There’s no one in this world you can’t mess with, except for Ye Wudao!"

"Yes, yes, thank you for the reminder, Miss!" the bald man nodded like a pecking chicken.

Without another word, the aloof lady turned around and left.

"Miss, please take care!"

After sending off the ’female demon lord’ with trembling courage, the bald man wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Lord Lightning Finger, what kind of person is this Miss from the Martial Family for her to frighten you like this?" asked an unaware subordinate, his eyes filled with curiosity.

You should know that Lord Lightning Finger was one of the four great Commanders of the Martial Department in Jiang Hai Province.

Apart from the ever-elusive Governor of Jiang Hai Province, there was almost nothing he feared.

"Shut up, don’t ask what you shouldn’t!" Lightning Finger glared coldly at his subordinate, reclaiming his usual commanding presence.

...

City of Jiangnan.

The news of the Xu family father and son being killed and the family extinguished in a great fire caused a shock in Jiangnan City, comparable to a level ten earthquake!

Ye Wudao’s renown spread like wildfire throughout Jiang Hai.

All the families strictly ordered; do not provoke Ye Wudao, with violators being expelled from the family directly!

Whether they were children of the powerful or rich young masters, when encountering Ye Wudao, they had to tuck their tails and hide far, far away!

The Su Family.

Su Yueli couldn’t help crying when she saw the scene of decline before her.

"Grandfather, where is Grandfather?"

Hearing her voice, someone ran over.

"It’s Sister Su!"

"Sister Su is back!"

It was the Xu sisters.

"Yuanyuan, Mengmeng, why are you here? Is, is my Grandfather still alive?" Su Yueli asked anxiously.

"We came to help after hearing the news. Grandfather Su is alive and well!" Xu Yuanyuan smiled.

"Sister Su, I’ll take you to see Grandfather Su, come on!" Xu Mengmeng grabbed Su Yueli’s arm and led her.

Inside the hall.

Su Yueli looked up to see her grandfather sitting in his chair and once again couldn’t stop the tears from flowing.

"Grandfather!"

"Yueli!" the old Master Su burst into standing, trembling with excitement.

"Wu wu, Grandfather, I was afraid I’d never see you again!" Su Yueli threw herself into Old Master Su’s arms.

"Silly girl, Wudao has saved us grandfather and granddaughter once again; he is our family’s great benefactor!" Old Master Su said, moved.

Ye Wudao stood to the side with his hands in his pockets, a smile on his face.

After a brief and reserved exchange, Old Master Su asked Ye Wudao nervously, "What about the Xu family?"

"Grandfather, the Xu family no longer exists!" Su Yueli replied softly after glancing at Ye Wudao.

What?

Old Master Su’s eyes filled with shock as he asked, "What happened?"

"Wudao killed the old Family Head of the Xu family, and a great fire burned down the entire Xu household!" Su Yueli reported truthfully.

Hisss!

Old Master Su took a deep breath of cold air, and after his shock, he burst into laughter; "Good, good, good, such is the wheel of fate. Whom does heaven spare? The Xu family committed so many atrocities, they deserved such retribution!"

"Grandfather, what about Grandma and the others?" Su Yueli asked curiously.

"They are hiding in the countryside, all alive, safe and sound," Old Master Su said indifferently.

"That’s good!" Su Yueli breathed a sigh of relief.

"Wudao, girls of the Xu family, tonight you will stay here. I will cook personally; today is a day worth celebrating!" Old Master Su declared.

"Sure!" The Xu sisters nodded in agreement.

"No problem!" Ye Wudao nodded.

"Grandfather, let me help you!" Su Yueli said happily.

...

Late at night.

On the ruins of the Xu family.

Two mysterious figures in black appeared slowly, one fat and one thin.

"This Xu Xiong is such a waste, a complete incompetent. He squandered all the cultivation resources we gave him!" the thin one said angrily.

"Now that the Xu family has been destroyed, only the Su family remains dominant in Jiangnan City!" the fat one said coldly.

"It seems we need to pay a visit to the Su family and take back what the Xu family lost, with interest!" the thin one suggested sinisterly.

The scene shifts to the Su family.

"With the Xu family issue resolved, the weight on our hearts can finally be lifted," Old Master Su raised his cup, a smile spread across his face; "Let me lead the toast. Let’s all celebrate together."

"Cheers!"

Su Yueli and the Xu sisters all followed Old Master Su in raising their cups, each taking a sip that made their pretty faces turn red; "Ah, this liquor is too spicy!"

"If you can’t drink, don’t force yourself," Ye Wudao said with a doting smile, lifting his liquor and draining it in one gulp.

After three rounds of drinks.

Su Yueli and the Xu sisters, not having much tolerance for alcohol, became drunk and lay down on the dining table, falling into a sweet slumber.

Only Old Master Su and Ye Wudao remained at the dining table.

"Wudao, I don’t know how to thank you enough, you are like a savior sent from heaven for me and Yueli!" Old Master Su said with emotion.

"Old Master Su, there’s no need for such formalities," Ye Wudao laughed.

"Yes, yes," Old Master Su wiped a tear from his eye, filled with emotion; "If the Northern King were still alive, he would have appreciated you greatly. You really remind me of him!"

"The Northern King?"

This was the second time Ye Wudao had heard this name from Old Master Su, and he frowned; "Old Master Su, who exactly is this Northern King?"

"Him," Old Master Su said, his voice going husky, and his nose reddened; "He was a most extraordinary person in the Capital City, a legend throughout the entire Dragon Country. I once followed him, but later on, he perished..."

"Why?" Ye Wudao asked.

Just as Old Master Su opened his mouth to reply, a sudden rush of wind came from outside the door.

"Something’s off with this wind. No, it’s malevolent!" Old Master Su became extremely alert.

Ye Wudao set down his cup and looked towards the doorway, speaking calmly.

"Who is causing trouble, hiding in the shadows?"
