The Herbal Scents of Farm Life

Chapter 3274 - 3275: You’re Back?

He kept mumbling, unable to understand how the things he had hidden so well could be discovered and even destroyed.

He knew that those things couldn’t even be burned by fire, he had tried before. How could they be burned now? Who had such ability?

Sitting fearfully on the ground, he pondered how he would explain this to Zui Yifeng.

No matter how he thought, he couldn’t figure out why someone could come to such a secret place, causing those things to be lost.

"What to do, what to do? What should I do?"

Soon, Madam Zui heard the noise and came over, seeing the head of the Zui Family sitting on the ground in a daze. Though she felt a pang of relief inside, she hurried over to inquire.

"Master, what happened to you? What’s the matter?"

Upon hearing her, the head of the Zui Family looked up at his wife. Seeing her face, his anger flared even more.

"Tell me, was it you? Did you collude with outsiders to do this?"

He abruptly jumped up from the ground and grabbed Madam Zui’s neck, angrily questioning her.

If she had done this, it would be great. He could shift all the blame to Madam Zui and wouldn’t have to be punished.

The punishment was secondary; he was most afraid that Zui Yifeng would want to kill him because those things were gone.

The Zui Family had only recently gained some reputation in the Ziyan Kingdom thanks to Zui Yifeng and Zui Yiming. He didn’t want to ruin the family’s foundation due to his momentary mistake!

"Ugh!"

Madam Zui was caught off guard, allowing the head of the Zui Family to clutch her neck.

"Master...what are you saying...let go...let me go...I didn’t...I don’t know anything!"

She was choked to the point she couldn’t breathe, using all her strength to pry his hands off, but to no avail. She was losing strength gradually.

The head of the Zui Family thought that if he strangled her to death, he could blame his mistakes on Madam Zui.

Once she was dead, even if Zui Yifeng wanted to question anything, he wouldn’t be able to, right?

But unexpectedly...

Madam Zui hadn’t died yet, and his hand was swept away by a palm strike.

"Hiss!"

He winced in pain, clutching his wrist and glancing at the person who attacked him.

"Who dares...hiss, Master...Yifeng, you’re back?"

Seeing Zui Yifeng standing not far away with a displeased expression, he gasped again, speaking nervously.

"What’s going on?"

Zui Yifeng glanced at Madam Zui lying on the ground, nearly strangled by the head of the Zui Family, and asked.

"This bitch actually conspired with outsiders to take everything I kept in the secret chamber. I was interrogating her, Yifeng..."

"What?!"

Hearing about the items in the secret chamber being gone, Zui Yifeng was shocked.

He was still a step too late, everything had been taken by Lin Caisang and his people, leaving him nothing, right?

"Those bastards, they really dare!"

Now in his possession, neither a poison corpse nor the mother of a demon child were there; they were all in Lin Caisang’s hands, weren’t they?

"Useless! You can’t even guard a simple thing. What’s the use of keeping you around?"

He lifted his foot and kicked the head of the Zui Family away!

Ineffective in handling matters, and he dared to act familiar with him; did he really think he was his father?
