Bringing up the past only made Xiao Jinglan feel disgusted. She didn't want to say another word to her and turned to leave.

On the other side, after Xiao Jinglan left, Ji Ba said worriedly, "Grandpa, do you really believe that Xiao Jinglan would have the heart to kill Ye Feng? This woman would give up her life for her precious son."

Ji Wuji pondered for a moment and said, "She is a smart person and should know how to make choices, but we can't put all our hopes on her."

"What should we do?" Ji Ba asked.

"We must be prepared for both possibilities."

Ji Wuji said, "Inform the Holy Son to descend the mountain and bring out the Soul-Capturing Bell!"

Soul-capturing bell?

Upon hearing this, Ji Ba looked horrified.

You must know that the Soul-Capturing Bell is a third-grade spiritual artifact, and its destructive power is unstoppable. Even a first-grade spiritual artifact like the Heavenly Sword cannot withstand a single blow from it.

It is also the only third-grade spiritual artifact in the world.

"But only the Holy Maiden can activate this Soul-Capturing Bell. Even if we bring it out, it probably won't be of much use."

The magical artifact contains spiritual consciousness, and the Soul-Capturing Bell was bound by a contract with the first Holy Maiden, meaning only the Holy Maidens of the Snow Demon Sect throughout the ages can wield it.

Ji Wuji replied, "No, I have sealed the Soul-Seizing Bell's spiritual consciousness. It is now just a powerful weapon that even ordinary experts can wield."

"that would be great."

Ji Ba said excitedly, "I will send someone back to the Snow Demon Sect right now to have the Holy Son retrieve the Soul-Capturing Bell."

……

Tang family.

At this time, the Tang family had moved to a remote village and lived in a dilapidated and old courtyard.

Gone are the luxurious villas; only the uneven ground remains, with a flock of chickens and ducks in the yard, their droppings scattered everywhere, resembling an old rural home.

There was nothing that could be done about it. The Tang family's assets had long been sold to the Cheng family. Although the Cheng family had declined, the Tang family could not get those assets back.

Even their original residence was confiscated.

Tang Ruoxue and the Zhang family had nowhere else to stay, so they had no choice but to live with them temporarily.

"Ruoxue, go feed the chickens," Tang Yan called out, sitting in her grandfather's chair with her legs crossed.

Tang Ruoxue rolled her eyes in anger. Did they really think she was a maid because they had to feed her every day?

However, the Zhang family has already gone bankrupt, and she is now penniless, so she can only swallow her anger for the time being.

"Okay, I'll go feed them now." Although she felt uncomfortable, Tang Ruoxue still obediently did as she was told.

Ten minutes later.

Tang Ruoxue came out with a chicken feeder, about to feed the chickens.

at this time.

A voice came from outside, "Ruoxue, what happened to you?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Ruoxue turned around and saw her grandmother, her father, and others walking in through the door.

Suddenly, her body trembled, and the chicken feed bowl in her hand fell to the ground, spraying her all over.

She didn't cry when she was bullied by the Tang family. She could endure any hardship or exhaustion. But at this moment, seeing her family in such a wretched state, Tang Ruoxue could no longer hold back, and tears streamed down her face.

"Sister Ruoxue, what are you doing!"

"My Xue'er, does the Tang family have no servants left? Why are you doing such dirty work!"

Tang Feifei, Tang Boyuan, and Grandma Tang rushed over.

Seeing Tang Ruoxue's dirty appearance, I couldn't help but feel sad. Tang Ruoxue had never done any heavy work since she was a child, but now she was doing this kind of dirty and tiring work in the Tang family.

How can this not break one's heart!

Tang Ruoxue stubbornly held back her tears. "Seeing me like this, you must be very happy, right? I've finally gotten my comeuppance, haven't I?"

"Silly girl, what are you saying?"

Grandma Tang quickly took out a jade bracelet and handed it over, saying, "Take this, go exchange it for some money, find a hotel to stay in, don't stay here."

"Yes, Dad will transfer you one million, no, two million. You and your mother should move out right away."

Tang Boyuan quickly took out a bank card and stuffed it into Tang Ruoxue's hand.

"I don't need your pity."

Tang Ruoxue suddenly flung them apart.

She wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "I, Tang Ruoxue, have hands and feet. I don't need your crocodile tears. I don't want to see you. Get out of here."

"Sister Ruoxue, what are you doing? Grandma and Second Uncle are just trying to be kind."

Tang Feifei persuaded.

"Kindness? Is this what you call kindness? You just want to see me make a fool of myself and humiliate me. Don't think I don't know that," Tang Ruoxue said fiercely.

The three of them stood there, stunned, unsure how to explain.

The once arrogant female CEO of the Tang family has fallen to this state; I wonder how she has managed to get through these days.

Just then, a playful voice rang out:

"You've said it yourself, we're here to humiliate you and see you make a fool of yourself."

The person who spoke was Chen Shujuan.

With a mocking and cold smile on her face, she slowly walked over and handed over an invitation card.

"Five days from now, Ye Feng and Yi Yi will be getting married. As Yi Yi's older sister and Ye Feng's ex-wife, it would seem petty of us not to send you an invitation."

"However, if you're dressed like this and don't dare to go, I won't force you."

Tang Ruoxue was suddenly taken aback.

At that moment, it felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over me.

Her grandmother and father felt sorry for her, and she wasn't that upset yet, but the moment she saw the invitation, she froze.

Memories flooded back, especially the scene of his wedding with Ye Feng three years ago, which lingered in his mind.

The image of her kicking Ye Feng out of the house is still vivid in my mind.

"Impossible, how dare they?"

Tang Ruoxue snatched the invitation in disbelief, opened it, and sure enough, she saw the names of Tang Yiyi and Ye Feng.

"Oh, right." Chen Shujuan said with her arms crossed, "The old lady said that Ye Feng is the heir of the Ye family, and his wedding cannot be taken lightly. She plans to hold the wedding ceremony at Yuhe Garden, yes, that magnificent royal garden."

“It’s hard for ordinary people to even get in and take a picture, but you’re very lucky. You can get in for a banquet thanks to Yiyi.”

"Oh, by the way, if you don't have a red envelope in your wallet, you don't have to give one. The Ye family doesn't need your little bit of money."

"what……!"

Tang Ruoxue instantly went berserk and tore the invitation to shreds.

why?

Why? Tang Yiyi is clearly just a naive and innocent girl, so why is she so lucky? She has neither ability nor courage, so why is she able to steal what belongs to her?

Tang Ruoxue was unwilling to accept this.

"You tell them to wait. What I, Tang Ruoxue, can't have, Tang Yiyi can't have either. I will make them pay the price." She pointed angrily at Chen Shujuan.

"you dare!"

Chen Shujuan glared at her.

"What am I afraid of?"

Tang Ruoxue went all out, "You tell Ye Feng and that bitch Tang Yiyi that if they know what's good for them, they should cancel the wedding. Otherwise, I'll make sure they suffer a terrible death!"

Snapped!

She was slapped as soon as she finished speaking.

It was Ye Shaoqing who slapped him.
