Shocking Venomous Consort: Frivolous Miss

“Yes, yes. All the bad things were done by me alone. It has nothing to do with my father,” said Zhang Yuhong.

“Is what he said true?” asked Ling Chuxi to Feng Zijin as she didn’t want to have to go to Kai Yuan City just to verify.

“Other than Zhang Yuhong, the other members of the Zhang family don’t seem to have done anything wrong,” said Feng Zijin honestly after a moment’s thought.

“Even if what you said is right, then wouldn’t it sound like it’s us who framed him?” asked Su Yizhi.

“What Zhang Yuhong did indeed violated the taboo of the sect, and it is indeed a capital crime. However, the Zhang family has been disconnected from the sect for nearly a thousand years. They have been wholeheartedly hoping for the return of the Su family to rebuild Golden Pill Sect. Only then would they be able to return to the sect. I’d say that they are extremely loyal. Over the years, they have even saved many of their former fellow disciples. If it weren’t for them taking them in, how could the descendants of Golden Pill Sect have survived to this day? Even if they made up for their mistakes, their lives would be enough to exchange for Zhang Yuhong’s life,” said Yue Qingjie.

When Zhang Shizhao heard Yue Qingjie’s attempt to help him, he wished he could give himself a tight slap. How could he have forgotten about this? He had only taken in the other disciples mainly to strengthen their forces, besides doing it out of good will. However, it was still a great merit.

He was also scared out of his wits by Ling Wushang’s influence and the strength Ling Chuxi and the others had shown earlier. He only wanted to beg for his son’s mercy and forgot about this matter.

“Oh, is this really true?” asked Su Yizhi excitedly.

The older one was, the more nostalgic they were. Moreover, past generations of the Su family clan heads had always dreamed of rebuilding their sect. Naturally, they also hoped to reunite with their former fellow disciples. However, those disciples had either died or scattered, so how could it be so easy to find them? When he heard that the Zhang clan had actually taken in quite a number of fellow disciples, he could not help but be pleasantly surprised.

“Our Zhang family has indeed taken in quite a number of disciples from the same sect over the years. Now, they are all properly settled in Kai Yuan City. In fact, my personal guard from earlier was a member of the Zhou family, who is also a descendant of Golden Pill Sect. Sect Leader, Elder Su, I beg you, on account of our Zhang family’s loyalty to the sect, please let my son go.” Zhang Shizhao’s face turned slightly red, embarrassed over the fact that he was using what had been an ulterior motive just to save his son’s life.

“Sect Leader, I’ve also heard from the elders that the Zhou family is indeed a descendant of Golden Pill Sect. If what he said is true and the merits and faults can be offset, why don’t we let Zhang Yuhong live?” Su Yizhi reasoned.

Ling Chuxi knew that Su Yizhi was soft-hearted. However, it was not good to disagree or argue with him in front of so many people. Moreover, if the Zhang family really took in many descendants of Golden Pill Sect, it was indeed be a great merit.

Besides, Ling Chuxi had actually already guessed that the Zhang family probably hadn’t been so kind as to take in descendants of the same sect. It was definitely more of a selfish act. However, the Su family’s population could not be considered to be very prosperous. Compared to other sects, the current Golden Pill Sect was still too weak. If they were in a hurry to open a sect and take in disciples, not only would there be good and bad disciples, there would also be no cohesion. It would naturally be best if they could take in the descendants of their former disciples.
