Adorably Cute Baby: Mommy's Going Against the Heavens

Seeing the situation was turning sour, the First Elder and Steward Ning quickly stepped forward, fearing that Shen Shenxing's impulsive actions might lead to irreversible consequences. Their eyes met, both filled with the same worry and tension. They urgently signaled to Shen Shenxing that even as members of the Shen family, they had to act cautiously and could not easily offend the powerful Soul Suppressing Hall behind them!

But it was impossible for Shen Shenxing to stand idly by. He walked up to Elder Songhe and coldly questioned, "Elder Songhe, you've overstepped your bounds. This is a competition for our Shen family. Isn't it unfair of you to give the Thunderbolt Pill to Wanqing? Besides, the Thunderbolt Pill is extremely dangerous. What if it harms a member of the clan?"

Elder Songhe didn't even lift his eyelids, ignoring Shen Shenxing's questioning. He slowly picked up his teacup, took a sip of fragrant tea, and then spoke, his tone casual: "Patriarch Shen is overthinking it. That was a life-saving item I gave Wanqing for self-defense." He paused, then added, "Since Wanqing used it at this time, it means she is indeed in mortal danger. Shouldn't Patriarch Shen be concerned about his granddaughter's safety first?"

He slowly turned his head again, his eyes sharp as blades as he shot at Shen Shenxing, his tone icy cold: "Patriarch Shen, you seem to have put the cart before the horse." He paused slightly, his tone full of threat: "I haven't even questioned you about this matter yet, and you're already questioning me. Let me tell you, if Wanqing makes any mistake in the competition, I will make the entire Shen family pay for her mistakes!"

He spoke each word with force, each syllable carrying immense weight, making it difficult for Shen Shenxing to breathe.

"You!" Shen Shenxing's eyes widened in anger, his finger trembling as he pointed at Elder Songhe, a surge of hot blood rushing to his head.

He felt a sharp pain in his chest, and his breathing became rapid. His already unrecovered body was now even more unsteady, and he almost collapsed to the ground without being able to catch his breath.

Upon seeing this, the Grand Elder and Steward Ning were greatly alarmed and quickly stepped forward to support Shen Shenxing's swaying body on either side.

The First Elder gently patted Shen Shenxing's back and asked with concern, "Patriarch, are you alright? Please take good care of yourself!"

Butler Ning then took out a pill from his pocket and held it to Shen Shenxing's lips: "Master, quickly take this calming pill given to you by the young lady and steady your mind."

"Dad, are you alright?" Shen Yanting stepped forward and asked with concern.

After Shen Shenxing recovered, he said, "Wanqing has already won, let her come down!"

“Father, Wanqing did not violate the competition rules, and their group has not given any signal of withdrawal from the competition, so please go back and sit down to continue watching the competition!” Shen Yanting stepped forward to help Shen Shenxing up.

"No violation of the competition rules?" Shen Shenxing retorted coldly, "Whether or not the competition rules were violated, you, me, and even the Shen family all know perfectly well! What exactly do you want? What did Yunxi do to offend you? Why are you trying to kill her like this!"

"I didn't!" Shen Yanting retorted instinctively.

Shen Shenxing closed his eyes, and was about to speak when he heard Elder Songhe say, "Patriarch Shen, let me tell you the truth. If Shen Yunxi and her child were really killed in the explosion, it only shows that they were not strong enough. The Shen family can keep such a useless person around. Wanqing has cleaned up the Shen family's house!"
