Yan Xi's Mother

Yan Xi's originally happy face turned cold, and she sped up. 

In the courtyard, a maid dressed in purple satin was pulling an old woman's ear, her sharp nails cruelly piercing into her flesh, leaving harsh red marks. 

The old woman who was being tortured by her had a hunched back and her hair had turned white. She kept bowing and apologizing, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'll wash the clothes again now." 

"Hmph! If you can't wash it clean before dark, I'll make you suffer." After ruthlessly leaving a few more marks on the old woman, the purple-clad girl finally let go of her. 

Yan Xi's eyes instantly turned cold. She knew that the owner of the original body was not valued at home, but she did not expect her life to be so miserable. Even these maids dared to bully her loved ones. 

"Aunt Wang!" 

She strode into the courtyard and stopped the old woman who was holding the clothes and was about to pound them. She took the clothes from her hand. 

The old woman who was stopped was shocked at first. When she saw the blood on Yan Xi's body, her expression changed. She took Yan Xi's hand and walked out anxiously. "Miss, how did you get hurt? Quickly come with me to see a doctor." 

"I'm fine, Aunt Wang." Yan Xi quickly comforted her. 

Hearing this strange and clear voice, Aunt Wang was stunned. After being stunned. her hands trembled with excitement. "Miss, you... You can..." 

With tears in her eyes, she was so excited that she could not control herself. She cried and laughed as she put her hands together. "We have been blessed! A spirit in the heavens has blessed us!" 

"Yes, I can speak now. Aunt Wang, we'll talk about this later." Yan Xi gave her a comforting smile. Her gaze swept across the extra people in the courtyard and turned cold in an instant. "There are other issues to be solved now." 

Zi Huan was also shocked by the fact that Yan Xi could speak, but she immediately recovered. 

So what if she could speak? Wasn't he still a good-for-nothing? 

She was Miss Lan's personal maid, not to mention that she now had... 

Zi Huan crossed her arms in front of her chest. She sneered, "So, Miss Xi, you've returned. Why are you holding onto this servant's clothes? Do you want to help this servant wash the clothes?" 

Before she could finish her sentence, she felt pain explode on her cheek and was knocked to the ground. 

She raised her head in disbelief. "How dare you hit me…!" 

Another slap sounded. 

Yan Xi shook her hand and smiled, but it made Zi Huan feel chills run down her spine. "I'm just teaching a disobedient dog a lesson. Is there something wrong?" 

Zi Huan was Yan Lan's personal maid. Because the Holy Church Academy did not allow servants to come inside, she did not follow Yan Lan to the academy. However, she usually treated Yan Xi with disrespect. 

She glared at Yan Xi with hatred, stomped her feet, and stormed out of the courtyard, covering her face. 

She had only gone a few steps when a hand grabbed the back of her collar and a foot kicked the back of her knee. 

Zi Huan was brought to her knees 

A cold voice rang in her ears, "Did I excuse you?" 

"What do you want to do?" Zi Huan's face was filled with fear. 

"Which hand did you use to hit Aunt Wang just now?" Yan Xi's eyes swept over the wounds on Aunt Wang's body. The bright red marks were glaringly obvious. 

"What are you trying to do?" Zi Huan asked in a trembling voice. 

"You're not going to answer?" Yan Xi smiled coldly, as if she was looking at an ant. "Then I'll cripple both of them." 

"Ah!" A shrill cry that sounded like a pig being slaughtered pierced through the air. 

Zi Huan's broken hands fell by her sides and she looked at Yan Xi with hatred. She did not expect Yan Xi to dare treat her like this. 

Because of Yan Lan, Yan Xi was usually very afraid of her. In order to win Yan Lan's favor, Zi Huan usually tormented Yan Xi and Aunt Wang. Originally, it was just to consolidate her position, but later, she gradually fell in love with this feeling of power. 

Yan Xi had gone crazy! She had to report this to Yan Lan. Zi Huan's face was full of hatred, and she was planning how to torture Yan Xi in the future. 

At this time, she still did not know Yan Lan's current situation was not much better than hers. 

"Aren't you going to get lost?" Yan Xi looked at Zi Huan with a half-smile and narrowed her eyes. "Do you not want your legs anymore?" 

Zi Huan did not dare linger any longer. She endured the pain in her hands and ran quickly. 

Yan Xi turned her head to look at the shocked Aunt Wang and repeated the words she had said to Yan Chushi. 

At first, Yan Xi was worried that Aunt Wang would not believe her, but she did not expect her to look at her with a complicated expression. 

Then, she naturally accepted the change in Yan Xi's personality. Her eyes were still shining with excitement. "I knew it. Miss Yue's child would never be an ordinary person!" 

Yan Xi's brows raised slightly. In her memories, her mother was a gentle soul. 

Her mother, Su Yue, was a merchant girl saved by her father when he went out. She was an ordinary person who could not cultivate, and her grandfather had been eaten by demonic beasts. 

So when Yan Wufeng said that he wanted to marry Su Yue, the Yan family, including her grandfather, Yan Zhongshan, was very opposed to this marriage. Looking at Aunt Wang's expression, was there something about her mother's identity that had never been revealed? 

Yan Xi could not help but touch the black bracelet on her hand again, her eyes revealing a thoughtful look. 

There were rumors that her father, Yan Wufeng, and mother, Su Yue, had died, but… were they really dead? 

The people who had gone to the Longyuan Empire to participate in the martial arts conference with Yan Wufeng back then came back and announced that after Yan Wufeng went to the empire, he was beaten to death because he stole a treasure belonging to a Mystical Emperor. 

A Mystical Emperor was a frighteningly powerful warrior! The Yan family was nothing in comparison. The Mystical Emperor did not need to personally kill them. He just needed to express his dissatisfaction with the Yan family and there would be people willing to destroy the entire Yan family for him. 

Therefore, when the Yan family found out that Yan Wufeng had offended the Mystical Emperor, they did not even think about looking into the truth. They immediately announced that they were cutting off all ties with Yan Wufeng. 

The genius of the Yan family, who used to be revered by many, had become a disgrace to his own family. 

However, in Yan Xi's eyes, this was all nonsense! 

Her father was a genius that only appeared once in a hundred years. He was a great hero! Why would he resort to thievery? 

A sense of depression and anger rose in her heart. Yan Xi touched her chest. These were the emotions of the original owner, and now, they were also her emotions. 

After the memory fusion, the love and care Yan Wufeng and Su Yue had for the previous Yan Xi filled her heart. 

"Don't worry, I will definitely bring justice to my parents." Making a vow in her heart, Yan Xi clenched her fists, her eyes burning.
