"Sir Xie, did the Xie Family allow Qin Yang and his mother to return?"
Jiang Jie asked angrily. They had bumped into Xie Yan's second brother, Xie Rui's father, Xie Hanzhe.
Xie Hanzhe was the magistrate of Tiantang Empire's capital, Shengjing City.
It was not easy to be a magistrate in Shengjing City but it was not a problem for Xie Hanzhe. Xie Zhen was the prime minister of the imperial court and had been for more than twenty years!
"Madam Jie, what do you mean?"
Xie Hanzhe cupped his fists and asked politely. Jiang Jie's background was not small and her family was powerful. Even Jiang Rong followed her surname.
"Sir Xie, I heard that Xie Rui's cultivation base was crippled by Qin Yang. The Xie Family wouldn't be so magnanimous, would they?" Jiang Jie asked.
Xie Hanzhe's face darkened. "It's impossible for Qin Yang, that little bastard, to return to the Xie Family. It's impossible for both of them!"
Jiang Jie was secretly relieved. It was good that the Xie Family did not intend to let Qin Yang and his family return!
"Sir Xie, we bumped into Qin Yang and his family four hours ago. They've returned to Shengjing City! Qin Yang even brought powerful guards with him. They don't seem to be friendly! "Jiang Jie said.
Xie Hanzhe's eyes glinted fiercely. "That little bastard dares to return?"
"Where is he?"
Jiang Jie said, "Sir Xie, we don't know. But you should be able to find them soon. They stole our carriage and entered the city!"
"Lawless!"
Xie Hanzhe shouted coldly. "Madam Jie, don't worry. I'll find them soon and return the carriage in good condition!"
Jiang Jie said, "Sir Xie, my carriage isn't cheap. It's worth more than a hundred thousand silver taels. They can go to jail for stealing so much money, can't they?"
"Yes!"
Xie Hanzhe said in a low voice.
Xie Rui was crippled by Qin Yang and Xie Hanzhe was filled with hatred towards Qin Yang.
He was also filled with hatred towards his own sister, Xie Yan.
"Then, thank you for upholding justice!" Jiang Jie said.
Xie Hanzhe nodded and left hurriedly.
It didn't take long for Xie Hanzhe to find out where Qin Yang and the others were.
Although Shengjing City was very big, with a population of more than 30 million, Jiang Jie's carriage was still relatively rare. Moreover, Xie Hanzhe was the magistrate and had many subordinates!
…
"Mom, I'm afraid your efforts will be in vain," Qin Yang said.
After settling down in a garden-style inn, Xie Yan called Qin Yang out to buy some things.
Previously, Xie Yan's heart was filled with hatred. But now that her cultivation had recovered and she was on Shengjing City's side, Xie Yan's heart softened.
Qin Yang was already holding several bags in his hands.
At first, Xie Yan only wanted to buy some things for her mother. Later, she bought things for a few other people who were on good terms with her.
Moreover, the things he bought were quite precious.
A few carefully selected gifts cost three to four hundred thousand taels of silver, which was enough to buy a good house in Shengjing City.
"Yang 'er, the Xie Clan has wronged us, but now that we're doing well, there's no need to be so calculative." Xie Yan sighed.
"If they want to improve our relationship, then so be it. If they don't want to, then we'll just leave Shengjing City."
Qin Yang frowned.
"Mom, we didn't plan to do this before." Qin Yang said.
Xie Yan smiled bitterly, "The Xie Family is our family after all. Although I wanted to beat up many of them in the past, now that I have such strength, such thoughts have faded. Now, I just hope that the two of us can live well and find your father so that our family can be reunited."
"Yang 'er, let the Xie Clan go."
Xie Yan knew that with Qin Yang's current strength, the Xie Clan would pay a heavy price if he went against them!
Qin Yang was silent.
"Yang 'er, I'm begging you. Your grandmother gave birth to me and the Xie Clan raised me. Although it hurt our feelings later, now that we're doing well, let's forget about it!"
Qin Yang took a deep breath. "Mom, have you forgotten that we were ruthlessly driven out? Have you forgotten that all our money was confiscated? You even pawned our jewelry. We had a hard time getting by. Have you forgotten that no one from the Xie Clan came to visit us in the past few years? "
"Also, did you get any response when you wrote to them?"
"Xie Rui came to our place and smashed all our things. Your eyes are swollen from crying!"
Xie Yan smiled bitterly. "How could I forget?"
"Will it make us happier if we just remember it?"
"Yang 'er, I don't want to care about this anymore. Just let it go."
Qin Yang's face was gloomy. He didn't want to let it go!
However, Xie Yan looked at Qin Yang with a pleading look. After leaving the Xie Clan for eight years, it was Xie Yan who raised him.
"Okay."
Qin Yang took a deep breath and nodded.
"Mom, if that's what you want, I'll do as you say."
Qin Yang didn't want his mother to be sad.
"Mm, okay!"
Xie Yan smiled. "We've bought the things. Let's go back!"
Half an hour later, Qin Yang's carriage returned to the inn where they were staying. There were a lot of soldiers on this side.
"Guests, we can only go up to here. The soldiers in front have blocked the road. We can't go forward." The coachman said.
"En!"
After paying the money, Qin Yang and Xie Yan's complexion changed. They estimated that there were hundreds of soldiers surrounding the inn. Moreover, many of them were equipped with crossbows.
"Iron Feather Guards!"
Xie Yan frowned. The Iron Feather Guards were the officials of Shengjing City. However, they were not ordinary officials. There were only two thousand of them and they were under the control of the Shengjing City Magistrate.
The members of the Iron Feather Guards were at least at the Qi Gathering 7th Level. Many of them had reached the Qi Condensation Realm.
Ordinary cases would not use the Iron Feather Guards.
For major cases, to deal with major criminals, the Iron Feather Guards would be used!
"The criminals inside listen, immediately come out and surrender. Otherwise, this official will immediately order the arrows to be released!"
A somewhat familiar voice passed into Xie Yan's ears.
Xie Yan looked over. She was stunned.
A hundred meters away, under the protection of a dozen strong men, impressively it was Xie Yan's second brother, Xie Hanzhe.
"You can try!"
Cheng Hui's fierce voice came out from the house.
"Cheng Hui!"
Xie Yan's complexion changed. She did not think that Xie Hanzhe's goal was actually Cheng Hui. Now that Cheng Hui had spoken, how could she not think of it?
Qin Yang's eyes were cold.
"Mom, you are picking out gifts for the Xie Family. This Xie Daren knows that we are here. He actually brought so many people to catch us. Haha!"
Qin Yang coldly said. Xie Yan's heart was bitter.
"Release the arrows!"
Xie Hanzhe coldly said.
"Stop!"
Xie Yan loudly shouted. However, the hundreds of soldiers did not listen to Xie Yan. Hundreds of powerful crossbows immediately shot towards the house where Cheng Hui was!
"Puff!" "Puff!"
A large number of arrows immediately shot into the house. If Xiao Junwan's strength was weak, it was estimated that several of them would have died!
"Stop!"
Xie Yan roared. Her voice was raised a lot.
Xie Hanzhe also looked over at this time!
"Xie Yan, Qin Yang!"
Xie Hanzhe's eyes flashed with a cold light. He immediately pointed to Qin Yang and shouted: "Those two are the leaders of the thieves. Take them down. If they resist, kill them!"
Immediately, ten or twenty strong men rushed towards Qin Yang. Among these strong men, there were three at the True Essence Realm. The rest were at the Qi Condensation 7th Level.
