Chapter 5019: Knowing

Has her family’s vengeance been fulfilled? But where does she go from here? With a face like hers, stepping outside would surely draw the attention of lecherous men once more.

She raised her hand to gently caress her exquisite features, her brow furrowing slightly. A trace of sorrow graced her face, making her appear all the more pitiable and captivating.

“What should I do?” she murmured softly.

Meanwhile, deep within the forest, Song Lingbo and his companions all wore delighted smiles. Yesterday, they had discovered many valuable items in this area and even hunted down several high-tier fierce beasts. After working through the night, they had just finished their tasks and sat down to rest.

“Father, something’s happened at home! Mother says we must hurry back!” Song Lingbo’s second brother stowed the gathered ingredients into his interspatial ring before noticing the message from his communication jade. He immediately relayed the news to his father.

“We received word from Mother too. She says we should return quickly,” added Song Lingbo’s third brother.

Song Lingbo’s heart sank upon hearing this. “Did your Mother say what happened?” he asked, retrieving his own communication jade to listen.

“She didn’t say much, just told us to hurry back,” the brothers replied, shaking their heads.

After hearing the message from the communication jade, which confirmed their words, Song Lingbo immediately barked at the group, “Pack up and return to the city swiftly!”

Song Mi’er, Hao’er, and the other three had just returned after washing their faces. Before they could approach, they overheard the order. Exchanging glances, they hurried over.

“Father, did Mother mention what happened?” Song Mi’er asked.

“She only said something happened at home. It must be serious—otherwise, your mother wouldn’t have summoned us,” Song Lingbo replied, his brow furrowed with worry. Concerned about the situation at home, he ordered everyone to prepare quickly, skipping rest to make ready for the return journey.

Hearing this, Song Mi’er promptly retrieved her communication jade from her interspatial ring. Unlike her three brothers and Father, her message stated that something had happened at home, but her friend, Lady Xuanyuan, had offered assistance. She also inquired about Lady Xuanyuan’s background.

“Lady Xuanyuan? The friend you mentioned?” Song Lingbo heard the message and turned to ask Mi’er.

“Oh, yes, that’s her.”

Mi’er paused, then nodded. “Father, brothers, don’t worry. With Lady Xuanyuan at our home, nothing bad will happen.” Her Master was incredibly capable! With her staying as a guest in their home, even if something truly happened, she wouldn’t stand idly by.

Song Lingbo frowned and asked, “Then who exactly is Lady Xuanyuan? How do you know nothing will happen with her here? What is her background? How could she possess such immense power? She resolved an issue that even our Song family elders couldn’t handle?”

“Hehe, Father, this Lady Xuanyuan—she’s quite formidable!” she said mysteriously, then laughed. “But since she’s here now, and we’ve gained quite a bit during this time, let’s head home! But don’t worry, everything will be fine at home.”

Hao’er and the other two nodded in agreement beside her. With their Mother residing at the Song family estate, who would be so foolish as to cause trouble for the Song family? Wouldn’t that be courting death?

Yet, despite her words, Song Lingbo couldn’t help but feel anxious knowing trouble had struck home. Glancing up at the sky, he declared, “We can save considerable time by flying our swords out of the forest. But flying our swords will inevitably bring us face-to-face with those Vittle Spirit Birds. Everyone, prepare for battle!”
