Heaven-Sent Farm Girl Builds Her Fortune And Captures His Heart-Chapter 597 - 596: Parting Ways

The Moon God stared blankly at this scene, lost in thought for a long time.

Suddenly, a flash of cold light swept past, and a long sword that emanated chilling air was pressed against the tip of his nose.

Duan Yunfei said coldly, "Letting you die would be too easy for you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Feihong Sword in his hand swiftly made a move, and only the sounds of one agonizing scream after another echoed in the dark night.

The Moon God was already drenched in his own blood.

The strong smell of blood wafted through the air, causing everyone who smelled it to furrow their brows.

Duan Yunfei sheathed his sword and said expressionlessly, "Throw him into Netherworld Valley to feed the wolves as well."

Chen Qi was dead, and even if the wild beasts devoured his corpse, he wouldn’t feel any pain. But the Moon God was still alive; Duan Yunfei had merely severed his tendons, not killing him outright.

Knowing that his son still remembered the grudge from the Thirteen Shadow Guards injuring him years ago, Duan Nian merely sighed and said nothing.

The next day, news of Haoyue Manor’s manor owner Chen Qi, who tried to attack Yongning Manor but was instead annihilated, quickly spread throughout Jianghu.

For a time, the entire Jianghu was in an uproar; some sighed, some jeered, some were uneasy, while others remained indifferent and detached.

The Liuyun Town County Magistrate felt anxious upon receiving this news.

Liuyun Town was originally under Haoyue Manor’s jurisdiction, and he had also secretly done many wrong deeds on Chen Qi’s behalf.

Now that Chen Qi was dead, Huang Shu had already sold off all his assets early on and escaped from Liuyun Town with his son Chen Feng and a group of confidants.

If Yongning Manor held him accountable, he feared he would be implicated.

After some time, seeing that Yongning Manor had no intention of coming over, the County Magistrate finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Now, Haoyue Manor had no masters left except for the ordinary servants.

Before long, Haoyue Manor was contested by people from Jianghu, and within a few nights, the once grand manor was fragmented, and several small sects from Jianghu also took over the place.

By the time the Capital received the news, it was already a month later; the Emperor issued an edict to reclaim Liuyun Town, but he dared not inquire further about Yongning Manor.

"Mother, what’s going on?" Chen Feng, having received the news, looked at Huang Shu in disbelief.

Huang Shu lowered her gaze, sighing softly, "Your father overestimated himself and brought trouble upon himself, which led to his death."

"Father couldn’t be that stupid!" Chen Feng exclaimed angrily, "It must be Feng Wuya, it must be him who betrayed Father!"

Huang Shu remained silent, she was also astonished when she heard the news; she hadn’t expected that Feng Wuya, who had always hated Duan Nian to the bone, would unexpectedly betray Chen Qi.

Fei Ye, who was acting as the coachman, said, "According to my knowledge, Feng Wuya is not the son of the Xu family and the manor owner."

"What did you say?" Not only Chen Feng but even Huang Shu was shocked. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Fei Ye curled his lips, he stopped the horse and looked at the mother and son, "Fei Ye can only take you this far, the rest of the way you’ll have to manage on your own."

"Fei Ye, what do you mean?" Xi Zhou frowned at him.

Liu Chuchu also looked at Fei Ye in confusion.

Fei Ye curled his lips, "I saved you only to repay Lady’s kindness for saving my life back then, and now, I have repaid that debt, and will no longer accompany you."

"How can you do this?" Xi Zhou exclaimed angrily, "It’s a time of danger, and if you leave, what will Lady and the Young Master do?"
