Shen Xingyue seized a word keenly, “Ally”. Since they were allies, there might be some misunderstandings. She did not want to waste time anymore. She immediately said, “Please!”

Third Grandaunt subconsciously wanted to stop her, whereas Crew Cut Taoist secretly pulled her sleeve and waved towards her slightly. Third Grandaunt got it. So she chose to be silent.

She understood what her husband meant. Their daughter now became the chief of the Shen Family. As the elders, they should simply support her job instead of weakening their daughter’s authority.

For those elders, the most important mission was not to make decisions for their daughter but to exhort her not to take the wrong path. After all, it was their daughter who shouldered the future of the Shen Family. They could not replace Shen Xingyue.

Fifth Uncle and her wife arrived one after another. After entering the camp, they held fist salute and said, “Lin Puhe and Song Xiaoyun of the Lin Family come to visit the leaders of the Shen Family!”

The leaders of the Shen Family responded with fist salutes. Shen Xingyue also pretended to hold a fist salute, while in her mind, she still found it awkward.

After all, Miss Shen graduated from a prestigious university and was an elite in the IT industry. She was better to understand fields such as aerospace and artificial intelligence. However, in respect of these courtesies, she found them hard to understand.

Nevertheless, now that she was at their mercy and was forced into the position of the chief, she must grasp what could not be comprehended before. No matter how awkward she felt, she had to obey those rites.

After the two parties greeted each other, the Fifth Uncle of the Lin Family asked despite knowing the answer, “What is your family name?”

Third Grandaunt smiled, “South Seas. The Sheng Family.”

The couple of the Lin Family pretended to be shocked. After a while, Fifth Brother shouted, “Are you the descendants of Sheng Tianju?”

“Exactly!”

“Oh,” Fifth Uncle paused and said, “What a confusing fight! People from the same side fought with each other!”

Fifth Aunty also hastened to say, “A mistake. A real mistake. We thought you were our enemies. But unexpectedly you are the old ally. We lost our men for nothing.”

Shen Xingyue asked, “Mr. Lin, what brings you here?”

He answered frankly, “We come here to save Miss Lin.”

“Miss Lin? Who is she? What’s wrong with her?”

“Miss Lin’s name is Lin Wan. Learning of the distress of her husband, she came to his rescue especially, but only to find herself in trouble as well. So we came here to rescue them.”

Shen Xingyue was dumbfounded completely. Lin Wan was actually Miss Lin. Shen Xingyue neither regarded that little girl as a nobody nor expected her to be so outstanding. What could she do now?

Others of the Shen Family were also a little confused. Third Grandaunt could not help asking, “I wonder who her husband is.”

“His name is Li Mu. He has married Miss Lin for three years and now Miss Lin is pregnant. We fear they may be in danger. So we come to the rescue. We do not intend to make a misunderstanding.”

Third Grandaunt stared angrily at her daughter. If Shen Xingyue were not her daughter, she would give her a slap across her cheek.

“The husband you found is simply a little sh*t! He has already married and even will have a baby soon. What you did makes the Shen Family lose face.” thought Third Grandaunt.

Shen Xingyue hurriedly asked, “Didn’t they get divorced?”

“They married again!” Fifth Uncle said without shame.

“You are lying! It is impossible for Brother Mu to re-marry Lin Wan. He asked me to marry him and we’re preparing for our marriage. I don’t believe what you said!”

“Who is this young lady?” asked Fifth Aunty.

Shen Hong answered quickly, “This is Shen Xingyue, Miss Shen of the Shen Family, the present chief of the Shen Family! “

The couple grumbled inwardly. They guessed Shen Xingyue was somebody but they still underestimated her. Li Mu was too provocative. Flirting with the chief of the Shen family would worsen the matter!

Embarrassed, the couple did not know what to say. So they had no choice but to change the topic.

“It’s hard to say. Only after we rescue Li Mu and ask him face to face can we find out the truth. Miss Shen, maybe you are here to rescue Li Mu, too.”

Shen Xingyue was sane. She knew it was inappropriate to debate now. Therefore, she answered, “Yes. How much do you know? What kind of danger are they in? “

“We don’t know the details as well.” Said Fifth Uncle, “We only have one piece of information. That is, there is a large number of corpse puppets in Jiu Feng Gou with the support of multiple beast herds. The rest is unclear.”

“What?” Shen Xingyue spontaneously stood up and cast an eye on the elders of her family. They looked at each other with expressions of surprise and puzzlement.

Fifth Aunt asked, “Mr. Lin, are you serious?”

“Let’s go and check whether it’s true or not. The moment you get there, you’ll see!”

“All right!” Shen Xingyue decided promptly and said to Fifth Uncle, “Mr. Lin, please go back and organize men to enter the mountain. We’ll depart overnight, at once!”

“No problem! I will go back to prepare now.” Fifth Uncle and Fifth Aunty held fist salutes and turned away.

After they left, Fifth Aunt tried to persuade Shen Xingyue, whispering, “Yueni, stay here with your parents. I will go with your Fourth Uncle!”

“No, I must go. Please don’t persuade me. If you want me to be the chief of the Shen Family, you shouldn’t oppose me!” Shen Xingyue said obstinately.

Third Grandaunt sighed and told the rest, “All of us will go. I also want to know what exactly happened and why our treasure place became like that.”

There were five to six hundred of the two families together, who was the best of both parties, armed and ready to strike.

Third Grandfather of the Lin Family also held a fist salute to the leaders of the Shen Family. They were introduced to each other.

After consultation, both parties agreed that they should not wait but set off right away. The longer the delay, the more dangerous the people inside. There was no point in discussing too much now. Instead, they were supposed to get people there first and then decide according to the situation.

The troop of people rushed to Jiu Feng Gou. When they were approaching the village, from the thick woods on all sides sprang out plenty of beasts, who surrounded them closely.

Immediately, from the village came a great roar and a multitude of corpse puppets. The corpse puppets rushed towards them with sharp teeth and claws.

Third Grandaunt came out boldly and put her fingers under her lips. She gave a sharp and piercing whistle.

On hearing it, corpse puppets stopped shortly and gawked at them with confused expressions.

Shen Xingyue saw everything clearly in the troop. She turned to Shen Hong by her side, “Senior sister, what are my mother doing?”

“It is the Magic of Controlling the Dead. These are corpse puppets of our family. Could the master control them?”

“Are they all from the Shen Family? Why there are so many!”

“I am not clear about the reason as well. There shouldn’t be so many. Something terrible must have happened here to make so.”

“Do those little girls master the Magic of Controlling the Dead?”

“No. I heard it from my master that the two sisters have a peculiar constitution. They can practice everything except the Magic of Controlling the Dead.”

Shen Xingyue nodded, whispering, “If so, maybe they are forced by the corpse puppets to enter the protection formation. They don’t intend to steal gold. “

“It’s possible. But now we have to find them to get the fact straight.”

As they were whispering, suddenly they heard a roar. Then the earth began to shake as if something was coming this way.

The dull corpse puppets began to cause uproar again. Third Grandaunt whistled hurriedly, scrambling with the unknown for the right to control these corpse puppets.

The corpse puppets became more and more chaotic. And some even began to attack their companions. Third Grandaunt began to sweat on her forehead with knitted brows in such a cold place.

“Let me catch you!” Crew Cut Taoist shouted, “Do you ghost from nowhere dare to come out and fight with me?”

This sound shocked the world, from which bore majestic righteousness. Those corpse puppets suddenly became quiet, while some even stepped back in fear of him.

Tok! Tok! Tok! As the footsteps approached, a big guy came into view.

Together the leaders from both families came to the front of the troop. Third Grandfather of the Lin Family shouted, “Take care! He is the Corpse of Death Puppet, who is extremely difficult to deal with! Don’t fall in a head-on collision with him! “

The big guy abruptly stopped moving and looked straight at Third Grandaunt. He looked both right and left, lasting for a joss stick of time, and then turned back and ran away.

The rest did not understand what it meant. Should they fight or not? Why did he run away?

Shen Xingyue shouted in the troop, “Mother, what’s wrong with him?”

Third Grandaunt answered, “I didn’t know, either. He stared at me for a while and then went away. I’m not clear what he wants to do.”

Crew Cut Taoist whispered by her side, “Darling, is this big guy your old acquaintance?”

Third Grandaunt thought carefully for a moment and then shook her head, saying, “I’ve spent most of my life in the mountain so I don’t have many old friends. Despite I have a few, no one looks this ugly.”

That was right. Everyone had a few friends. But no one would like to befriend a guy as ugly as this big guy.

The leaders of both families repeatedly advised their clan, whispering that they must be alert and ready to strike at any time.

A little later, the big guy returned and peered at Third Grandaunt, “Ying!”

Third Grandaunt said in surprise, “You know me?”

The big guy continued to call without answering her, “Ying!”

Third Grandaunt pored over him attentively but could not recall who he was.

Shen Xingyue walked from the troop. She held Third Grandaunt’s hands and asked her in a low voice, “Mother, who is he?”

The big guy became excited at all once, heading towards Shen Xingyue with hands open.

“Yueni!”

The leaders of the Shen Family were astonished and instantly protected Shen Xingyue to step back. Third Grandaunt shouted, “Wait a moment! He seems to know Yueni!”

“Yueni!” shouted the big guy. Judging from his expression, he looked very sad.

Shen Xingyue said in a shiver, “Mother, I’m scared!”

“Don’t be afraid. Your mother is here. You won’t be exposed to danger. Don’t hide. Move forward. The chief of the Shen Family should not be a coward.”

Shen Xingyue nodded slightly and bit her teeth tightly. She headed to the big guy. Third Grandaunt along with her husband stayed nearby Shen Xingyue to protect her safety.
