After dressing up as cannon fodder, I beat everyone in the house until they cried.

Chapter 524: Evil intentions
Shen Hualan shook her head and looked at Yan Qing word by word.

"Master, can you please answer my question? Do you really believe what he said?"

"You also think that it was me who attacked Senior Brother Ji?"

"is it?"

Not only did she feel Yan Qing's face, but even her own voice sounded so strange to her. It wasn't despair or sadness, but she suddenly felt that everything in the past seemed less and less worthwhile.

Shen Hualan sighed. Yan Qing's gaze seemed to send her to hell.

She felt that she could understand the attitude in his eyes. He didn't care, no matter whether she was the one who hurt Ji Huaiche or not, no matter whether she was in a situation where everyone was besieging her and trying to steal her things today, he didn't care.

She tried hard to suppress the tears that were welling up in her eyes.

But she knew that those were not tears of grievance, but tears of anger.

It was her anger towards herself.

She was so weak, so weak that even she felt angry.

Why is she so weak? She is so weak that there is no one behind her. She is so weak that anyone can slander her and frame her at will. She is so weak that she has no chance to fight back in the face of these injustices.

Shen Hualan looked at the people in the hall sadly, whether it was Shen Qi, Shen Qianwu, Xia Yurong, Yan Qing, Ji Huaiche, Yi He, and everyone else.

They all knew that she was weak and had no one to rely on, so they were so cruel to her without restraint.

She actually knew this truth a long time ago, but she still naively held on to her fantasies.

She thought that as long as she worked hard enough, one day they would see her sincerity.

There was something in her heart, which was pulled away bit by bit at an extremely fast speed, just like peeling off a cocoon, leaving her soul with bright red flesh and blood.

There is no end to human malice towards the weak, but most people have learned how to restrain it, while a few allow it to grow endlessly in their hearts.

Shen Hualan took a deep breath, forced herself to suppress the tears that were rushing up, and spoke.

"What? Just now I said that I was a useless person without a contracted spirit beast and no fighting power. Now I have become the culprit who can severely injure a ninth-level disciple of the Spiritual Transformation Stage who has a contracted spirit beast with my second-level Spiritual Transformation cultivation?"

"You're just framing me. Don't you even need to find a reasonable excuse?"

"I'm a medical practitioner, how can I hurt him? Or... have any of you here given me a powerful magic weapon?"

The scene was quiet for a few seconds.

Xia Yurong sneered, "Who knows what sinister method you used? I have long seen that you are a bad girl and you don't obey discipline. What? Could it be that you mean that your senior brother is slandering you?"

"Why would he slander you as a loser?"

"And Sect Master Yan didn't say anything either, which clearly shows that he doesn't believe you. After all, the impression you give people every day is that you are a person with bad intentions!"

The ice in Shen Hualan's eyes gradually solidified.

"What did I do wrong?"

"I used to admire the person I liked and told him/her my feelings openly. After being rejected, I didn't feel resentful or retaliate. How could I be considered to have evil intentions?"

"I don't think there was anything wrong with my previous behavior, and I didn't sneak attack Senior Brother Ji in the Realm of Chaos!"

Shen Qi laughed angrily.

"Okay, I don't want to hear all your nonsense. You're not stupid, and you must know that you can't possibly stand out in the Xianyu Conference. You're good for nothing except embarrassing yourself. Hand over the fruit quickly and get out of here. You're really ruining my good mood."

Shen Hualan bit her lip and stood there for a long time without saying anything. If it was a normal day, she would have given it, but today, for some reason, she just didn't want to give it away so easily.

"I can give it to you, but I also want to be innocent. I request an investigation into Brother Ji's injury! If you just do a little research, you will know that I was not the first one to injure him!"

Seeing this, Shen Qianwu stomped her foot and looked at Xia Yurong, "Mother! Look at her!"

Xia Yurong narrowed her eyes dangerously, turned her back to Shen Qi, and smiled at Shen Hualan with ill intent.

"It doesn't matter. To deal with special people, you should use special methods."

She looked outside the hall and clapped her hands.

"Okay, bring the stuff up."

As Xia Yurong finished speaking, someone walked in from outside the hall.

Shen Hualan turned around following the sound, and when she saw who was coming and what they brought, she couldn't help but widen her eyes.

What was carried in by the servants was actually the peach tree in her yard.

The tree seemed to have been dug out in its entirety, with many of its roots broken and still covered in mud.

Shen Hualan felt as if he was struck by lightning under a clear sky, and even the blue veins on his temples couldn't help but bulge.

When Shen Qi saw this scene, the corner of his eye couldn't help but twitch, and he looked at Xia Yurong with some impatience.

"Why did you drag such a dirty thing into the main hall? Look at what you have done to the floor."

Xia Yurong said coldly: "Once and for all, come here this time and teach her a lesson, and this damn girl will behave herself."

Shen Qi looked at the mud spots left by the peach tree being dragged across the ground, with only disgust in his eyes.

"what ever."

When Shen Hualan heard Shen Qi's words, her fingertips twitched and she looked at Shen Qi in a daze, her eyes full of disbelief.

"Dad, this is the peach tree that Mom planted...herself. It's the only one!"

Shen Qi made a "tsk" sound, looked away and ignored her, as if he didn't want to care about this matter.

next second.

With a loud 'boom', someone lit up the peach branch. The spiritual fire started to ignite little by little, and instantly spread like wildfire, spreading over the peach tree. The originally pink petals turned black and curled up.

"and many more!"

Shen Hualan's face turned pale and she rushed forward without thinking. She used her spiritual energy to try to put out the fire which was becoming more and more fierce, but after several attempts, she couldn't even suppress the fire.

"This is a spiritual fire, a loser like you can't put it out."

Xia Yurong's arrogant tone was accompanied by the crackling sound of fire.

"You silly girl, this is what happens when you don't obey! This time I burned a tree for you, and next time I'll burn your yard too!"

"Just do whatever I tell you to do!"

"If you live under someone else's roof, you should have the attitude of a person living under someone else's roof!"

Shen Hualan didn't listen to Xia Yurong's yelling. She had only one thought in her mind at that moment, which was that she must not let the only peach tree her mother left for her be burned to death.

She subconsciously looked at Yan Qing, and the indifference on the other's face once again hurt her eyes, but she knew that the people on the platform would never help her.
