When Shi Sheng returned to the surface, she was immediately surrounded by a large group of people.
Shi Xuan had used the underground passage to shake off Shi Sheng and returned to the main house. He had quickly called for reinforcements.
Perhaps it was because of the contract, but Shi Sheng's vicious aura was suppressed. If she didn't do it on purpose, no one would think that she was a dangerous person.
"Shi Sheng, surrender!"
"The Master said that as long as you don't resist, we will spare your life. If you dare to resist, don't blame them for being blind!"
Cold weapons were pointed at Shi Sheng. Shi Sheng took a few steps forward. Those people looked at her cautiously, their weapons ready to fire.
"Ah — —"
Screams filled the main house. That day, they saw a woman like the God of Death, surrounded by countless people, approaching Shi Xuan's position.
Shi Xuan's people stayed with Shi Xuan. Listening to the constant noise outside, they were all scared witless.
They couldn't understand how a young girl who was not even 20 years old could be so powerful.
Even when Shi Sheng came in, they still couldn't figure it out.
The door was blasted open, but no one came in. The outside suddenly returned to silence.
Everyone looked at each other.
What was going on?
Shi Xuan was supported by someone. His face was pale. He didn't know what Shi Sheng had smeared on the knife. The healing pod only healed his wounds, but his body was still weak.
"Master …"
Everyone looked at Shi Xuan. What should they do now?
"Why aren't the Zhan Long Guards here yet?" Shi Xuan shouted angrily. The Zhan Long Guards who were usually in the main house were nowhere to be seen today.
He didn't give any orders to the Zhan Long Guards. Where did they go?
If the Zhan Long Guards were here, she wouldn't be so arrogant.
"Master, we can't contact them …" The person beside him whispered.
"Trash!" Shi Xuan kicked the person's calf, but because he was weak, he fell down. The person behind him quickly caught him to prevent him from falling to the ground.
It was quiet outside. Everyone waited for a while, but there was no movement. They looked at each other for a while.
"You go out and take a look." Shi Xuan casually pointed at someone.
That person's face immediately fell. He probably didn't want to go out, but under Shi Xuan's glare, he could only shrink his neck and carefully move towards the door, praying that nothing happened outside.
However, his prayers were in vain. Before he could reach the door, a few strange things were thrown in from outside.
The items fell to the ground and rolled. One of them happened to roll to his feet.
His pupils shrank and his expression changed. He quickly turned around and shouted at the people behind him, "Run!"
Boom!
Shi Sheng stood outside and looked at the building that had disappeared into the dust with a cold expression.
She opened her personal terminal and dialed a number. "Thank you for your hard work. You can let those people leave now."
"Miss Shi, are you sure? When they go back, they will definitely … "The Zhan Long Guards of the Shi family were very powerful. He did not know what method the Shi Sheng used to lure all these people out, but it was definitely not right to let them go now.
"What's done is done. Even if they kill me, it won't change anything. I know what I'm doing. Let him go."
"… Alright then."
Shi Sheng hung up the phone. The people around him had already rushed over. They all stood not far away from Shi Sheng and did not dare to get too close.
Shi Sheng turned around and swept his gaze across those people. Finally, his gaze landed on the elders who had arrived late. "From today onwards, the head of the Shi family will no longer be Shi Xuan. I will take over. Does anyone have any objections?"
"You …" One of the elders spoke. His wrinkled face was filled with anger. "How can you be the head of the family if you offend your superiors?"
"When Shi Xuan forced my parents to their deaths and put me under house arrest, why didn't you stand up and criticize him?" Shi Sheng sneered.
"This is different!" The elder scolded.
"How is it different?" A layer of ice formed in Shi Sheng's eyes as they emitted a cold aura. "Just because he's the Clan Head?"
"The head of the family is the direct line of descent. How can you, a branch family member, be the head of the family?!"
"Direct line of descent … Ha, if you really want to trace back, it's already hard to say who is the direct line of descent. These words are only used to fool those ignorant people. Do you think I'm that easy to fool?"
The direct line of descent was just a title. Whoever took over would be the direct line of descent.
That elder wanted to say something, but he was stopped by a slightly older elder beside him. He bowed first. "Greetings, Head of the family."
"Great Elder!"
"Why did you admit it just like that?"
"Look at what she has done. Is this something that can be forgiven?"
Great Elder glanced at the person beside him. After a moment, he lowered his eyes. "I didn't agree with the previous head of the family's way of doing things. He was the one who insisted on doing things his own way. Now, this is karma."
"But this has nothing to do with her …"
Great Elder waved his hand, stopping these people from continuing to speak. He looked at Shi Sheng with a complicated gaze and made the final decision. "She is qualified to be the head of the family."
Since Great Elder had already said so, even if the others had any objections, they could only hold it in.
"Greetings, Head of the family."
"Greetings, Head of the family …"
Shi Sheng snorted. "You're smart."
Great Elder nodded slightly. "You flatter me, Head of the family."
Shi Sheng put the things in his hands back into his pocket. If these people had dared to do anything just now, he would have blown them up as well.
…
The main building of the Shi family's main residence was almost razed to the ground. None of Shi Xuan and his men came out. They disappeared in the explosion.
This explosion was shocking, but it also made people admire the courage of the perpetrator.
It was said that when the army went, the perpetrator was very arrogant and said that there was nothing wrong with blowing up her own house.
The Shi family kept quiet about this, and no one complained. The army could only ask about the incident briefly and then withdraw.
With the help of RH Company, Shi Sheng used forceful means to suppress the Shi family. Originally, most of the Shi family's businesses were in Shi Xuan's hands. Shi Sheng relied on RH Company to make these businesses either collapse or have already changed owners. What else could the Shi family say at this time?
In this era, strength was important, but so was wealth.
RH Company also did not expect that Shi Sheng would really be able to take over the Shi family. This was probably their biggest investment, but in the end, they made a profit.
Shi Sheng fulfilled his promise and gave one-third of the Shi family's businesses to RH Company. The Shi family was already in chaos because of the sudden change of ownership, and now that their financial resources were reduced, the Shi family's strength was greatly reduced.
The few elders of the Shi family were so worried that their hair turned white. They had already strangely acknowledged a new head of the family, and now it was like this. Could the Shi family still be good?
However, Shi Sheng, the newly appointed head of the family, did not say anything about this matter. He spent all day with the Zhan Long Guards, and no one knew what he was doing.
