Strongest Medical Saint-Chapter 631 - A Satisfactory Explanation

No sooner had his words fallen...

Several figures swiftly emerged from the guest hall of the Cui Family. Naturally, all of them were important figures within Spirit Water City. They had just gathered from the report of that Cui Family junior a general understanding of the entire incident. Yet, when they saw the body of the Eighteenth Prince, Wan Lang, panic was evident on their faces. If this matter wasn't handled properly now, the entire Spirit Water City might be doomed!

Seeing the motionless body of Wan Lang, a cold light clearly flashed in the beautiful eyes of the Third Prince, Wan Xiangtian. As he looked towards the unperturbed Shen Feng, a vigorous aura characteristic of the Late Stage Sea Transformation began to emanate subtly from him. His voice lacked any trace of emotion as he interrogated, "Did you kill my eighteenth brother?"

Respectfully following by Wan Xiangtian's side were an old man and a middle-aged man, the Supreme Elder, Cui Yisong, and the Family Head, Cui Guangxian.

They were originally joyful today, having not foreseen such an event. More importantly, the person who killed the Eighteenth Prince had been brought in by a branch of their own Cui Family.

Cui Yisong knew the Cui Family had to distance itself as much as possible from today's events. With respect, he said to Wan Xiangtian, "Third Prince, I will definitely give you an explanation for today's incident."

With that said...

He glared at Cui Qingyan and Cui Hengyu with rage in his eyes and bellowed, "Your branch was already expelled from the Cui Family. Who allowed you to come uninvited today? Do you even qualify to step into the Cui Family? And you even became accomplices to the murder of the Eighteenth Prince. Why aren't you two kneeling and seeking death as an apology immediately?"

Knowing they could not escape today's predicament, and after a brief moment of panic, Cui Qingyan and Cui Hengyu gradually calmed down. If Shen Feng hadn't intervened earlier, Cui Hengyu might have already been dead. They held no grudge against Shen Feng for this.

Recalling every moment since the Third Prince's arrival, Cui Qingyan took a deep breath, stepped forward two paces, and stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Shen Feng. He said, "Third Prince, you said yourself that there was no need for so much formality. My young friend here was just abiding by your words, not bending his knees, and should not be wrong in doing so, right?"

"After that, the Eighteenth Prince wanted my young friend to leave by crawling on his knees over this matter, and ultimately even sought my young friend's life. At most, my young friend was merely acting in self-defense."

"Please, Third Prince, handle this matter fairly,"

Upon hearing this,

Wan Xiangtian's brows tightly furrowed, while beside him, Cui Yisong grew even more furious, roaring, "Cui Qingyan, did you not hear my words clearly? I told you and your grandson to kneel and commit suicide as an apology. Do you really want me to do it myself to be satisfied?"

As he spoke,

Cui Yisong's aura of Half-Step Sea Transformation surged forth, and Wan Xiangtian showed no intention of stopping him. In truth, he was a hypocrite who appeared affable on the surface but was ruthless behind the scenes. After all, this incident was indeed instigated by Wan Lang, so it might as well have the Cui Family do the dirty work for him.

Cui Qingyan and Cui Hengyu, feeling the killing intent emanating from Cui Yisong, broke into cold sweats, and their breathing through their noses and mouths became extremely rapid.

Cui Pengqing, who had some friendship with Cui Qingyan, merely watched the unfolding drama with a cold eye.

Just as Cui Yisong was about to step forward,

Lu Xueqing, wearing a fiery red dress that showed off her stunning figure, happened to walk into the Cui Family's courtyard.

Her grandfather and father would arrive a bit later and had asked her to show her face first.

Not having seen any of the Cui family's younger generation outside to welcome guests, Lu Xueqing felt puzzled. When she walked in and saw the tense situation, especially upon seeing Shen Feng, she immediately cried out, "Hold on!"

Her cry did indeed cause Cui Yisong to pause mid-step, and all eyes suddenly turned to Lu Xueqing.

By now, she still did not know Shen Feng's identity. Why did her grandfather address him as Old Ancestor?

Although last time her grandfather had repeatedly instructed her to address Shen Feng with the utmost respect as Old Ancestor the next time she saw him,

obviously, in such a public setting, it was not appropriate to use that title. She could tell that her grandfather had intentionally concealed Shen Feng's identity, and if she were to call him Old Ancestor right away, it might draw even more attention to Shen Feng.

Having met Wan Xiangtian a few times, Lu Xueqing asked, "Third Prince, what exactly happened here?"

The Third Prince snorted coldly and had no intention of answering.

Instead, it was the Cui Family Head, Cui Guangxian, who quickly recounted the whole affair, which left Lu Xueqing with shock and doubt in her beautiful eyes. Looking at the corpse of the Eighteenth Prince on the ground, she saw Wan Lang for the first time. She knew that the situation was beyond her ability to handle and that she needed to immediately inform her grandfather and father to come here.

Lu Xueqing spoke with righteous indignation, "Third Prince, let our City Lord's Mansion handle this matter. It happened in Spirit Water City, and I assure you, you can trust that we will provide a satisfactory resolution."

"I will contact my grandfather and father right now. They will arrive shortly, so please wait a moment."

Those present were under the impression that Lu Xueqing was siding with the Third Prince, but they would never guess that in fact, she was calling for reinforcements for Shen Feng. With her level of cultivation, she would not be much help in a fight. Fortunately, one of her grandfather's old friends was also visiting the City Lord's Mansion at the time. Only the Third Prince had come, without any other mighty figures from the Royal Family, so they should manage the situation.
