Depressed, blue light smoke!

Lan Hongtai had always felt deeply sorry for Mu Lingbing, and now, facing Mu Jinse and Situ Yan, his shame and remorse reached its peak.

With Mu Lingbing's prestigious identity, marrying into their Lan family should have meant enjoying the treatment befitting a palace master. However, she had suffered torment for so many years.

How could he justify this to Mu Lingbing's parents?

Listening to Lan Hongtai's words, Situ Yan and Mu Jinse exchanged a glance and shook their heads.

"Speaking of it, we owe Yunxiao an apology," Situ Yan said with a hint of remorse. In reality, while Lan Jingkuang himself harbored thoughts of harming Lan Yunxiao, it was Situ Yan and Mu Jinse who intervened and helped Lan Jingkuang. Without their assistance, Lan Jingkuang would not have reached such an extreme state.

So, from this perspective, it was their family that burdened Lan Yunxiao.

Lan Hongtai, filled with remorse, waited to hear the accusations from Situ Yan and Mu Jinse but unexpectedly heard these words instead, leaving a trace of confusion in his eyes.

"Situ Master, what you said is not accurate. It was entirely due to my failure as a father that such a tragedy occurred, causing Lingbing and Yixuan to suffer," Lan Hongtai said with a nod.

Situ Yan waved his hand and said, "Lord Lan, this matter has reasons on both sides. It's not about blame or not blaming each other. Ultimately, it's us parents who owe our children an apology."

Lan Yunxiao, Mu Lingbing, and Lan Yixuan were all innocent. If they, as parents, could have done better, such things would not have happened.

Upon hearing this, Lan Hongtai acknowledged with a nod. As a father, he indeed had not fulfilled his responsibilities.

Lan Yunxiao, Mu Lingbing, and Baili Hongzhuang smiled when they witnessed this scene. Although they had endured a lot of pain over the years, now that everything was finally resolved, seeing Situ Yan and the others in this manner made them feel warm inside.

Perhaps, this was the hardship they had to experience in their lives, and after going through it, they gained indescribable feelings.

Lan Qingyan looked at Baili Hongzhuang in shock. She had always thought of Baili Hongzhuang as an unknown person, never imagining that she would become the junior palace master of the Peerless Palace through some incredible stroke of luck.

However, now that everything had been revealed, it became even more difficult for her to bear.

So, the current situation was that Baili Hongzhuang was the junior palace master of the Peerless Palace, her grandfather was the Heavenly Gang Sect's sect master, her grandmother was the Sun and Moon Palace's palace master, and her father was a member of the Lan family?

With all these identities combined, Baili Hongzhuang already had the support of four major forces behind her!

Even on the entire Holy Xuan Continent, how many could compare to her?

In comparison, she was just a legitimate Miss of the Lan family, and the Yue family had long since declined. What significance did she hold in front of Baili Hongzhuang?

"No wonder the disciples of the Sun and Moon Palace stood on Baili Hongzhuang's side during the Battle for Supremacy. It turns out there's such a connection..."

Lan Qingyan spoke in a daze. Previously, she believed that Baili Hongzhuang couldn't compare to her and was unworthy of Emperor Beichen. But now, was the person who was once considered an ugly duckling actually herself?

The members of the Lan clan also realized all of this. Considering this, Baili Hongzhuang's identity was truly terrifying...

Anyone who dared to harm Baili Hongzhuang would be offending four major forces. Just having this identity alone, who would dare to provoke her?
