Reborn Heiress: Seeking Revenge-Chapter 674 Chaos (1)_1

Shangguan You waved her hands, scattering the powder once again onto the countless insects on the ground. With a single flame, she burned them clean. The few uninfected people were directly knocked out by Shangguan You.

"Little Cauldron, is there any more?" Shangguan You once again dashed into the space, looking at the Medicine King Cauldron flying around in midair.

"Master, I’ve prepared a lot. It should be enough," replied the cauldron.

"Little Cauldron, where did you find this recipe?" Shangguan You looked at the countless bottles, her lips twitching involuntarily. In her memory, there was no such recipe in this space.

"Master, there are many good things on level 6. You just haven’t gone up there. I found this prescription there," said the Medicine King Cauldron as it flew into midair, stopping before the Medicine King Tower, which glowed with a purple light.

"Master, do you want to enter level 6?" The Medicine King Cauldron set aside its momentary smugness and looked at Shangguan You cautiously, fearing she might charge up and open the sixth gate right away.

"No, I have more important things to do right now. Once things here are settled, maybe I will go." Shangguan You shook her head, casually picked a few Spirit Fruits, and started biting into them. While eating, she took a few bottles of medicine and once again left the space. Her visits to the space were becoming less frequent.

A streak of light appeared in the sky, dispelling the darkness as the sun rose once again. The warm sunlight felt unusually comforting as the previously lifeless city buzzed to life. At the same time, Shangguan Zhi and the others who had not returned home all night walked into their house with heavy steps.

On their faces, Shangguan You saw unprecedented gravity and worry. It seemed things had exceeded everyone’s imagination. Even the Security Bureau had erupted into chaos again. The nation’s military, institutions, and political arena, including the magnates of the upper echelons and representatives of the Ye Family, had been thoroughly infiltrated by Ye Da Shao’s people. From top to bottom, there had been a meticulous purge. Last night’s meeting had exposed more of this issue. Now, the meeting was inconclusive, the grand plan remained unsettled, and those below had already started fighting.

"Grandfather, Dad, Uncle, Brother Qing, during this time, don’t go out. Stay at home and don’t leave for now. The situation outside is beyond the Shangguan Family’s control," Shangguan You quickly said to her family members.

"Girl, one must fulfill their duties in their position. How can we just stand aside?" Shangguan Yu gave a wry smile. This girl isn’t part of this circle and doesn’t understand its workings. If we, as the leaders, were to hide now and only reappear after everything is resolved, the Shangguan Family would lose all face and no longer deserve to hold its position.

"Girl, is Ye San Shao awake yet?" Shangguan Zhi asked gravely. With the situation escalating, they could only pin their hopes on Ye San Shao, hoping he could still be of some use against Ye Da Shao.

"Grandfather, even with Ye San Shao and Ye Er Shao’s help, our chances of winning are slim. You know how many experts Hidden World Village has and how strong they are. Besides, with the Ye Family’s formidable strength, even if Ye San Shao and I give it our all, the odds are still very low," Shangguan You said with a bitter smile. The Ye Family, a prestigious family with centuries of history, is even more fearsome than Hidden World Village.

Shangguan You’s expression wavered. A blood-red world appeared before her eyes, filled with death and corpses. She widened her eyes, watching her relatives and friends fall one by one; even Lin Mengjie collapsed.

Ye Da Shao’s hideous face dominated a world overrun by insects. They broke through the passage Lin Mengjie guarded, relentlessly crawling out from beneath the earth. The scene changed repeatedly, one gruesome image after another flashing before her eyes.

An illusion... it must be an illusion! Shangguan You was startled. Cold sweat beaded on her forehead, and her body began to tremble.

"Girl! Girl, what’s wrong? Are you sick?" Shangguan Qing cried out in alarm, quickly shaking Shangguan You.

"I’m fine, I’m fine." Shangguan You snapped back to her senses and quickly wiped the sweat from her forehead. Seeing the worried gazes fixed on her, she made a decision.

"Grandfather, pack up! We’re heading to the Lin Family right away!" Shangguan You abruptly stood up. There’s still time to get my family to safety. Any further delay and it will be too late.

"Why go to the Shen Family? Which Shen Family?"

"Grandfather, just listen to me! Chaos will erupt soon! Brother Qing, hurry and call the Yu, Luo, Li, and Gui Families. If you can, get Director Fang to come along too; that would be even better! We set off in ten minutes!" Shangguan You said rapidly, not giving anyone a chance to question. In a flash, she disappeared from their sight.

"Girl, isn’t this reckless? During such a critical period, how can we possibly leave now?"

"Dad, do you want to save Mom? If you do, then hurry up!" Shangguan You’s voice came from downstairs, distant yet urgent. She also called the Lin Family, Shen Congming, Chu Yi, Long Hua, and even Han Yachu from school, telling them all to gather at Shen Mansion before hanging up.

Ye Da Shao was using his enormous financial resources to control international finances, even severing vital economic ties to multiple regions. This caused widespread panic. Furthermore, using his control over the insects, he forced countless people into a bloody frenzy, inciting civil unrest and international disputes.

Ye Da Shao was positioned to reap the rewards; he didn’t need to do anything but watch as the world obediently submitted to him. Now, all he had to do was open the passage guarded by Lin Mengjie and bring his kin over to control this world.

Once Ye Da Shao arrived, the only truly safe place would be Shen Mansion. Although she had shifted the pathway thousands of meters deep into the earth, no matter how much it was moved, the passage would eventually return to its original trajectory. Shen Mansion would thus remain the safest sanctuary. As long as the passage existed, Shen Mansion would endure. No one could destroy it.
