Chapter 1825_ Compensation
Chapter 1825: Compensation
Anling Yan followed the instructions and swiftly did as told. Soon, the clear bottle sparkled with a spectrum of colors, each vying for attention, the brightest among them a striking shade of green.
“Great! That’s fantastic!” Hongxia exclaimed with excitement, her hands trembling so much she nearly dropped the glass bottle.<span data-ez-ph-id=”102″>
Little did she expect that the Anling Family had managed to foster yet another saintess candidate whose abilities matched those of Anling Yue.
Moreover, this candidate also possessed a rich essence of wood spiritual power, which was truly a pleasant surprise.
Hongxia gazed at Anling Yan with a mix of excitement and fondness, as if beholding a rare treasure. She said eagerly, “Come with me to the palace now and meet the palace master.”
Anling Yan nodded and looked at her close relatives reluctantly.
She had been aware of her destiny since birth and had already accepted it. If becoming a saintess and leaving her home could ensure peace and a future for the Anling Family, she was ready to do it.<span data-ez-ph-id=”103″>
Anling Yan’s mother had tears streaming down her face as she clung to her father, sobbing uncontrollably.
Anling Yao forced a smile and said, “Don’t be sad, Yan. When you become the saintess, I’ll definitely visit you at the Moon Embracing Palace.”
Hongxia chuckled to herself at those words, thinking, “That’s assuming you’ll still have the privilege of seeing her.”
With a polite smile, she suggested, “Miss Anling, it’s time we set off. Let’s hope you’ll be obedient along the way. The Moon Embracing Palace doesn’t want another Anling Yue. I’m sure everyone in the Anling Family understands, don’t they?”<span data-ez-ph-id=”104″>
Anling Yan wiped her tears and was about to agree when a cold voice nearby interjected, “Wait!”
Hongxia turned to find the handsome young man rising gracefully from the stone, making his way towards them at a measured pace. Xi Weizhi, in his striking red attire and mask, trailed behind Xi Yue without a hint of urgency.
When Hongxia caught sight of Xi Weizhi, she felt goosebumps all over. Despite her formidable cultivation prowess, an inexplicable fear washed over her, compelling her to instinctively consider stepping back.
Xi Yue looked at her and asked casually, “You’re not planning to take someone away just like this, are you?”<span data-ez-ph-id=”105″>
“Then… then what else do you want?”
Xi Yue couldn’t help but laugh. “I remember hearing that the Moon Embracing Palace once decreed that the women of Anling’s Family were to serve as slaves and prostitutes for generations. Surely you wouldn’t want the chosen saintess sent to the God Domain to come from such a background, would you?”
Hongxia breathed a sigh of relief, realizing it was just a simple request like this!
“No need to fret. Once I return with Miss Anling and the palace master confirms her identity, we’ll clear Anling Family’s name and rescind that old order.”
“Is that supposed to be enough?” Xi Yue sneered, her expression filled with contempt. “Just casually revoke an order and snatch away a daughter who’s been raised for over 20 years? The Moon Embracing Palace sure knows how to strike a deal.”<span data-ez-ph-id=”106″>
“Outrageous! Who do you think you are? When did it become your turn to…?”
Hongxia was furious. Before she could finish her words, she felt as though something had gripped every vein and artery in her body, pushing her to the edge of death.
The next moment, she found herself meeting Xi Weizhi’s gaze—cold and calculating, as if it could tear her apart with a bloodthirsty grin.
Hongxia gaped at him and said with difficulty: “I… We are willing to compensate the Anling Family!”
With the pressure abruptly easing off, Hongxia took in deep breaths, her face drenched in sweat.
With a smile, Xi Yue remarked, “See? Isn’t that better? Now, let’s dive into the specifics of compensation.”
