Chapter 10: Ten withdraw from relatives
Tick-tock! As soon as Yin Huan's voice faded, footsteps echoed from the entrance of the Shang Family's Righteous Hall, followed by three figures entering in single file—it was Yun Xiao and his mother and sister.
Seeing these three figures, the hall suddenly grew somewhat silent, while people like Shang Ying and Shang Huiyu wore a sneer of disdain on their faces.
At that moment, everyone knew that this mother and sons, who had always been unwelcome in the Shang Family, were about to be subjected to a unique form of humiliation—a spectacle they relished.
In the past, Shang Li's father was extraordinarily talented, overshadowing his older and second brothers, which incited extreme jealousy in the two, extending the disdain to his daughter and grandchildren as well.
Moreover, because Yun Xiao and his siblings came from a mysterious background, people in the Shang Family felt that Shang Li's character was disruptive and disgraceful, tarnishing the family's reputation. Thus, even Shang Yan, the Family Head, developed a certain disgust toward this trio in recent times.
Especially Shang Huiyu, who had just lost face to Yun Xiao, now eagerly watched this unknown youngster about to suffer extreme humiliation, pre-emptively entering a mode of relish.
"Greetings, Family Head!"
Although Shang Li didn't know the exact reason for being summoned, she guessed vaguely and didn't know the whole truth, so upon entering the hall, she paid respects to Shang Yan at the upper seat, as she too belonged to the Shang Family.
Meanwhile, Yun Xiao surveyed the surrounding Shang Family powerhouses with a cold gaze, dredging up their characters from deep memories, only to find not a single benevolent soul among them.
Although reborn with the soul of the Long Xiao Battle God, Yun Xiao's current Meridian Qi Cultivation was too weak—possibly only a match for Shang Huiyu in the entire hall.
