Chapter 579: Scheme (1)
Shen Yue and Shen Duan, who did not appear at dinner, sat in the same room at the moment.
Shen Yue was full of fury as he clenched his fists.
Shen Duan's vision was deep.
"Second Brother, I really can't endure this hatred any longer. That little bastard seriously injured Jiayi. If I don't settle this enmity, how can I call myself a father?" Shen Yue received a letter from Shen Jiawei a few days ago. Inside it, he clearly described Shen Jiayi's bitter experience and Shen Yanxiao's shocking changes. Seeing what his son wrote, Shen Yue almost exploded at the first moment, and he desperately wanted to immediately grab Shen Yanxiao and tear her into pieces.
But today, when Shen Yanxiao returned, Shen Yue, who was thinking of avenging his daughter, was stopped by his brother Shen Duan.
Shen Duan said, "I know you feel bad for Jiayi. Jiayi is my biological niece and I personally watched her grow up. How could I not be hurt after knowing her current situation? But you have to think clearly, Shen Yanxiao is now a Senior Warlock. You are now only at the level of Senior Swordsman. If you want to make a move on her in the residence, how would it be that easy? Don't even mention about Father protecting her, just the Vermillion Bird in her body is not what you and I can provoke. If you are to find her trouble now, I'm afraid you will only bring trouble upon yourself."
Shen Yue gnashed his teeth.
"But, am I just going to sit back and watch that little bastard who hurt my daughter? Second Brother, the Shen Yanxiao from before could only be regarded as a dog we raise on the house, even a servant has more weight than her. But as you can see, only after some time, she had first obtained the Vermillion Bird, then took the position of the clan head, and now somehow, she can cultivate magic and became a Senior Warlock and won the championship of the school tournament. If we continue to ignore this matter, do you think there's going to be a place for you and I in this residence? How we used to treat Shen Yanxiao before, both of us are very clear. As long as there is Shen Yanxiao, our children will not see any bright day ahead!" Shen Yue was full of hatred. He could not wait to dismembered Shen Yanxiao's body. However, Shen Duan's words were very reasonable. If he took a shot at Shen Yanxiao right now, he was afraid that he would not be able to take revenge for his daughter, but he would put himself in trouble instead.
Shen Duan knit his brows. The change of Shen Yanxiao really surprised him. The kid who had been ignored for more than a decade had actually undergone such earth-shaking changes in just six months. This was far beyond his control.
In the Vermillion Bird Clan recent years, his son Shen Yifeng had always been one of the most complimented younger generation. He once believed that with his son's strength, he would surely inherit the Vermillion Bird Clan in the future.
But no one had ever thought that Shen Yanxiao would suddenly beat them to it and take away everything that belonged to his son.
This point was something Shen Duan could not stand.
"You can rest assured that I will not let things easy for her. Just because we're not making a move now, does not mean that we are letting her off." Shen Duan's eyes flashed a hint of viciousness.
Shen Yue had always known that his second brother was very deep. Ever since Shen Feng's first son, that was, their elder brother Shen Xi and his family had accidentally died, he started to feel that Shen Duan was very dangerous. However, right now, he and Shen Duan were in the same boat. He was rather curious if Shen Duan had any means to deal with Shen Yanxiao.
"Please also enlighten me."
Shen Duan lifted the teacup on the table and slowly took a sip of it, then he unhurriedly said, "The winners of the Long Xuan Empire school tournament must go to the Barren Land. You know right?"
