"Yes," Xu Zimo and Wenren Su admitted their fault and did not argue.
"The situation in the Phoenix Perch Empire is already chaotic enough. Pull one hair and the whole body moves. Be more restrained when you go out in the future."
Wenren Jingshi spoke indifferently.
He could see through exactly what had happened at a glance.
It was only because he stood on the Wenren Family's side, and lacked sufficient evidence, that he did not expose it.
After being severely lectured by Wenren Jingshi for quite some time, Xu Zimo returned to the small courtyard with the dejected Wenren Su.
Looking at his injuries, Wenren Su said helplessly, "Cousin, you really were ruthless with that sneak attack!"
"You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing the child," Xu Zimo said with a smile.
"We couldn't exactly put Grandfather in a difficult position. Didn't the matter pass just like that?"
As Xu Zimo spoke, he handed Wenren Su a Healing Sacred Pill.
After taking the pill, Wenren Su's body began recovering noticeably.
"There are still three days until Grandfather's Longevity Banquet. This period will be boring enough to kill us," Wenren Su said, shaking his head helplessly.
"Only my Miss Xian'er is pitiful."
"She is merely a Beauty's Bane," Xu Zimo replied blandly.
"Then do you have a girl you like, Cousin?" Wenren Su's gossiping heart stirred as well, and he asked with a chuckle.
Xu Zimo fell silent for a moment, thinking of the Blue Family of the Demon Slaying Family on the distant Central Continent.
Life was often more dramatic than a novel.
The person he liked was within an enemy faction.
There would always come a day when he and the Demon Slaying Family had to settle things.
After all, in their eyes, he was a true devil.
