812 Brother Jiu Takes Action, Killing Everyone (2)
The Saintess’s father was snatched from her sister by Lan Jiao. The Saintess had never believed in a man’s sincerity since she was young, and it was the same now.
There was no man in the world who didn’t cheat, nor was there a man who didn’t change his mind.
The so-called marriage was just a trade-off between the families.
The Saintess had understood this logic since she was young. She did not care what kind of husband Sikong Yun was. What she wanted was the power of the Sikong Clan.
However, it was unknown if it was because she could not stand Yu Wan falling into the honey, but the Saintess walked towards her coldly. “If you don’t believe me, you’re the stupid one. You’ll soon know what kind of man your beloved husband is.”
“Do I need you to tell me what kind of man he is?” Yu Wan couldn’t be bothered with her and left without looking back.
She would admit that she had captured her, but there was no way she could sow discord between her and Yan Jiuchao!
Yu Wan closed the door!
The Saintess frowned and could not help but clench her fists under her wide sleeves. Yu Wan’s silly appearance was a little blinding to the Saintess, but even the Saintess could not explain why.
The Saintess suddenly turned back because she had left something in Sikong Yun’s room. However, Sikong Yun was having fun with the maidservant. The Saintess felt that her handkerchief was dirty and had no intention of taking it back.
After entering the Saintess Hall, a holy envoy came up to her. “Saintess, we’ve already heard the news. That group of people is the helper hired by Master Lan Qin. They live in a house in the east of the city. They took Master away and locked her there. Do you think we should kill our way over overnight?”
The Saint Temple had the most powerful experts. Coupled with the few from the Lan family, they did not have to worry about not being able to catch them all in one go.
Originally, the Saintess had the intention of killing her way up, but Yu Wan’s silly appearance flashed across her mind and she suddenly changed her mind. “Where is Lan Mei?”
As soon as she finished speaking, a woman in red flew out. The night wind was cold, but she was only wearing a thin veil. Her charming curves were faintly discernible. The moment she appeared, even the holy envoy, who was also a woman, felt her heart skip a beat.
Lan Mei was just like her name. She was good at seduction and was the most terrifying confidant under the Saintess. No one in the world could resist her seduction.
Lan Mei was a trusted aide personally promoted by the Saintess, so she naturally would not use charm on the Saintess. She landed in front of the Saintess and bowed piously. “Mei’er greets the Saintess.”
Even her voice was like the sound of nature, soul-stirring.
The Saintess looked at her indifferently. “You have a new mission.”

In the east of the city, every family had rested. Only the Lan family’s courtyard was brightly lit.
Lan Jiao had already been thrown into the woodshed by Shadow Thirteen. Madam Lan learned about the incident from them. When she heard that Yu Wan had been captured by the Saintess, her face darkened. “Outrageous! She doesn’t even let go of a woman who doesn’t know martial arts! She’s really disgraced the Lan family!”
Madam Lan looked at Lan Jiao, who was tied up, and wished she could rush up and tear her face apart. Not only had she snatched her brother-in-law, but she had also harmed her Ah Wan. How could such a woman have the face to live in this world?
“Grandma Lan, calm down. We’ll think of a way to save Ah Wan. Don’t be too angry and ruin your health,” Qing Yan advised softly.
Lan Jiao gave Madam Lan a disdainful look. “So they’re the helpers you hired. You’ve really put in a lot of effort, but what’s the use? Do you think you can defeat my daughter and the Sikong Clan?”
Lan Jiao was quite nervous on the way here, but soon, she was relieved. The masked man seemed to not care about the brat’s life, but in fact, he cared about her more than anyone else. As long as the brat was still in the hands of the Saintess, they would not dare to do anything to her!
At the mention of the Saintess and the Sikong Clan, Madam Lan was actually a little angry. “Have you forgotten the ancestral teachings of the Sikong family? You actually had an engagement with the Sikong Clan!”
Every generation of saintesses would take over the position of the head of the Lan family, and the head of the Lan family would not get married unless she found a husband to marry in! It was obvious that it was impossible for the second young master of the Sikong Clan, Sikong Yun, to become the live-in son-in-law of the Lan family.
As such, the ancestral teachings became empty talk to the Saintess.
Lan Jiao rolled her eyes. “What does it have to do with you? Do you still think you’re the head of the Lan family?”
“You…” Madam Lan was so angry that she raised her hand and was about to slap her.
Lan Jiao smiled coldly. “Don’t forget that that girl is still in the hands of the Saintess. No matter what you do to me, the Saintess will repay that girl double. If you have the guts, try touching me.”
