Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again Chapter 1079: 1079: A Cultured Young Man

Chapter 1079: Chapter 1079: A Cultured Young Man

But seeing the way they talked, she gave up this idea.

A hint of despair once again graced her face.

The Old Clan Leader didn’t even glance toward the young people, evidently unconcerned with the situation there, but instead smiled lovingly at Gu Qiaoqiao, “Qiaoqiao, Xiao Wen, since you two are Sister Xiao Nan’s sisters, you’re also kin of our Ling Family. You’re part of Peach Blossom Valley, don’t feel like an outsider here. Let handle the matters here, and we’ll go ho for dinner.”

Gu Qiaoqiao smiled and said, “Thank you, Old Clan Leader.”

Xiao Wen glanced at Gu Qiaoqiao, then nudged Ling Nan standing beside her, “Since the Clan Leader is busy here, Ling Nan, why don’t you show us around first?”

Xiao Wen is different from Gu Qiaoqiao; she’s from the Phoenix Clan and can undergo a Nirvana Rebirth every few decades.

But her mories remain.

So, she’s seen many situations like the one before them and isn’t worried about others. She’s concerned that Gu Qiaoqiao might rashly intervene, becoming an enemy of Peach Blossom Valley.

Never underestimate a remote village and those so-called big families.

They all have secrets not easily shared.

They’re very united when dealing with outsiders.

Many tis even our Mystic Sect keeps a respectful distance from these families.

Not to ntion it’s just Xiao Wen and Gu Qiaoqiao here, and Ling Nan is too naive to understand what’s happening, and it’s not good to involve him.

Ling Nan has been in the Imperial Capital for over half a year, ears and eyes have taught him many things.

Especially being with Master Fong, he vaguely feels that the family’s usual way of dealing with enemies seems a bit off now.

However, he doesn’t know how to discuss this with the Old Clan Leader.

The Old Clan Leader is a very stern person.

Sotis, Ling Nan is quite afraid of him.

Hearing what the Old Clan Leader said, Ling Nan felt a great relief, lifted his legs, and started heading ho, saying, “Sister Qiaoqiao, Sister Xiao Wen, why don’t you co over to my house first?”

Xiao Wen quickly nodded, “Sure, sure…” then pulled Gu Qiaoqiao along, heading forward.

Gu Qiaoqiao frowned, her eyes on the person tied to the stake.

Xiao Wen, holding her hand, applied a bit of pressure.

But at this mont, the Old Clan Leader stood in front of the woodpile, speaking rhythmically.

It was evidently a ritual incantation.

Then they heard the young man tied to the log shouting, “You’re trampling on human life, abusing private punishnt; this is a society governed by law; you have no right to handle in this way. I know I was wrong, but I don’t deserve to die. You can hand over to Public Security; you can’t just burn alive; it’s murder, it’s a cri…”

The young man tied to the log shouted hoarsely.

Clearly, he is a well-educated young man.

He spoke with logic and reason, although his voice was hoarse, evidently having argued with the villagers for a long ti.

This ti the Old Clan Leader didn’t speak in their dialect but used standard Mandarin, saying, “Once you’re in this valley, everything must abide by our Peach Blossom Valley’s rules!”

After that, he stopped speaking to the young man, but waved a hand, telling the several young n beside him, “Set the fire, burn him!”

In those short five words, the Old Clan Leader spoke casually, as if burning a person alive was not seen as a serious matter.

That young man was truly in despair.

He began to sob, crying while shouting, “Mom, Dad, where are you? I’m about to be burned alive; please co and save …”
