The Supreme Martial Expert of the Female CEO Chapter 1766 1764: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes
The Xin Family's Little Princess was also sowhat at a loss. She had never encountered such a situation before, and now the only person she could trust was her Guardian.
After receiving the Little Princess's consent, Xin Cheng hid her behind a large teorite, set up a concealing formation, and then led the pursuers away.
The Little Princess of the Xin Family hid in the dark of the formation. There was a trace of fear on her face, but it quickly turned into determination. After all, she was the Little Princess of the Xin Family; how could she fear these bandits?
Xin Cheng's actions didn't escape Ling Feng's notice. He hid nearby, pondering whether to make a move like a mantis stalking a cicada, only to be caught by a yellow sparrow. After all, the Little Princess of the Xin Family was of considerable value.
But just then, a ripple appeared, and in front of the formation stood a tall young man with a slight smile on his face. With a wave of his hand, he actually destroyed the formation set up by Xin Cheng.
"Why are you here?" The Xin Family's Little Princess couldn't help but ask in shock when she saw the young man, her eyes filled with horror.
The young man wore a smug smile: "Why am I here? Xin Shuang, are you still pretending to be ignorant? Do you really not know why I'm here?"
Xin Shuang's look of horror disappeared, and she took a deep breath: "Xin Yan, is this all your doing? Did you bribe the Black Wind Predator's people to attack us?"
Xin Yan chuckled: "As expected of Grandfather's favorite little sister. My dear sister, I didn't expect you to figure it out so quickly. It was worth coming here personally!"
Xin Shuang glared angrily at Xin Yan: "Xin Yan, what exactly do you want to do?"
Xin Yan said indifferently: "It's simple. Hand over what you have, and I can pretend nothing happened. How about it?"
"In your dreams!" Xin Shuang instinctively covered her chest and said, "Xin Yan, what I have is sothing to save Grandfather's life. How could I possibly give it to you?"
Xin Yan laughed: "Precisely because I know you have such a thing, I sent people to intercept you! Saving that undying old man should be left to , Xin Yan. After all, I'm destined to beco the next Family Head. Having that thing in your hands is a waste. Giving it to will allow it to serve its greatest purpose!"
Xin Shuang took a deep breath and said sternly: "You want to use this item to secure your position as the family heir?"
Xin Yan nodded: "Exactly. Grandfather said whoever finds the Ghost Spirit Grass will be the next heir. So, hand over the Ghost Spirit Grass, and I promise not to harm you!"
There was a hint of sadness in Xin Shuang's eyes: "Xin Yan, you would attack for the heir's position? Do you only care about the heir's position and not Grandfather's safety? Aren't you worried that the Ghost Spirit Grass might be damaged in battle?"
"What does that have to do with ?" Xin Yan shrugged and said, "As long as I can bring back the Ghost Spirit Grass, I don't care if it's complete! Besides, maybe you're the only one worried about that undying old man's safety?"
As he spoke, Xin Yan's eyes showed a hint of sarcasm: "In that undying old man's heart, you're probably his true granddaughter. When have we, the grandsons, ever enjoyed his affection? So, don't ntion his safety to . I truly don't care!"
Xin Shuang was trembling with anger: "Xin Yan, I didn't expect you to be like this. How can you say such things? He's our grandfather, the head of the Xin Family, and you..."
Xin Yan impatiently interrupted Xin Shuang: "Save your words for that undying man. Don't act pathetic in front of ! Your words only make sick!"
Disappointnt appeared on Xin Shuang's face: "Originally, I wouldn't have minded giving you the Ghost Spirit Grass; as long as it could save Grandfather, that was fine. But now, I definitely won't give it to you!"
"Because your intentions are impure, I can't trust Grandfather's safety to you!" Xin Shuang declared firmly: "I will bring the Ghost Spirit Grass back to the family as soon as possible. You should give up this hope!"
Xin Yan's expression turned cold: "So, you refuse to give the Ghost Spirit Grass? This makes things difficult!"
Xin Shuang frowned: "What do you an? Are you planning to rob openly?"
"Openly rob? Impossible!" Xin Yan chuckled: "Since you refuse to cooperate, then I have no choice but... to kill you!"
As he spoke, Xin Yan's figure flickered and he suddenly charged at Xin Shuang.
Xin Shuang's face changed, and she couldn't help but shout in shock: "Xin Yan, are you crazy? You want to kill ?"
"Haha, truth be told, the mont I revealed everything to you, you were already dead!" Xin Yan sneered: "Don't you know? The better that old man treats you, the more I hate you. Now, I will end it all with my own hands. If you want to hate, then hate that old man's favoritism towards you!"
Xin Shuang's face turned pale. Although she had cultivation at the Initial Stage of the Divine Sea Realm, she stood no chance against Xin Yan's peak Divine Sea Realm strength!
Moreover, her strength was built on Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, without any real combat experience!
Under Xin Yan's attack, she clumsily retreated, quickly taking a heavy hit from Xin Yan and falling heavily to the ground, her delicate face showing pain.
"Why... aren't you killing ?" Xin Shuang gritted her teeth and said: "Is it fun to tornt like this?"
Xin Yan playfully said: "Of course it is. I want to see the high and mighty little sister, the undying old man's precious pearl, show a face of despair and helplessness. That would make even happier!"
Xin Shuang stubbornly got up, her body slightly shaky: "But you will be disappointed. As a mber of the Xin Family, I will never despair at any ti!"
"Do you still think soone will co to save you?" Xin Yan said flatly: "To be honest, I've already driven away everyone around here. The Black Wind Predator people are under my command. Oh, and I forgot to tell you, there are also my people by your side. Otherwise, how would I know you got the Ghost Spirit Grass? So, no one will co to save you now, you should give up this hope!"
Xin Shuang's heart sank, but her face remained calm: "Grandfather once said, no matter the situation, never give up hope, never stop fighting! So, I won't give up!"
With that, Xin Shuang actually took the initiative to charge at Xin Yan.
