Sister-in-law: I’m really not a fool anymore

Northwest Ancheng.

Lu family.

Ye Fan transformed himself into Fan Ye, stirring up a turmoil in the capital city. He almost uprooted all the forces under King Jin and swallowed up all their savings.

But in terms of time, only a few days have actually passed.

At the Lu family’s side, even the mourning hall that Lu Yuwei had arranged for Ye Fan was still there.

And today is the day of Ye Fan’s funeral.

For the past few days, the entire Lu family compound seemed to be shrouded in an invisible, thick haze, and the atmosphere was so dull and depressing that it made people feel breathless.

Ye Fan’s attack and murder was a huge blow to the Lu family.

After this incident happened, the situation in the northwest deteriorated rapidly, like a domino effect, triggering a vicious cycle.

At this moment, Lu Yuwei, dressed in mourning, was busy in the mourning hall, preparing some matters before the funeral.

The Lu family's second master Lu Zhongting, the Lu family's top master Wei Zhengyang, and the Lu family's aunt Lu Xue who is in charge of the Lu family's finances, as well as other Lu family executives, gathered outside the mourning hall.

Everyone had a frown on their face, full of worry.

"Yu Wei is a very affectionate child. She is deeply in love with Ye Fan. It really makes people feel distressed when they see her."

"Alas, the Ye family is really in trouble. First, all seven brothers and three uncles died. We thought Ye Fan would rise quickly and be a unicorn son, and create greater glory for the Ye family. But unexpectedly... Alas!"

"Yu Wei insisted on setting up a mourning hall for him in my Lu family compound. Although we have deep feelings for each other, after all, we haven't married yet, right? It's a bit inappropriate."

"We have let her do this, but carrying the coffin to the mountain is different. If a girl really wants to do this, it will be like being a widow and will never be able to remarry. We must not let her do this."

"These are just minor matters. I am more worried about the eight major families."

"That group of guys has been very active recently. Even the Tianji Pavilion, Tiankui Base, and the Fan Alliance have been bought off by them. They are simply at the peak of their powers."

"With such arrogance, I'm afraid they will take advantage of the situation and assassinate Ye Fan. They won't even let go of the funeral and jump out to use their power to suppress others."

"It is said that even Guo Li, Song Yang, Yu Qiang, and Wang Fugui have been bribed. If the eight major families really want to cause trouble today, how can our Lu family resist it?"

"When people leave, the tea gets cold; when the tree falls, the monkeys scatter..."

As they were talking, a voice suddenly rang out from inside the mourning hall, "The auspicious time is approaching, prepare to move the coffin and start the funeral..."

The Lu family's top executives exchanged glances.

After a deep sigh, he was about to enter the mourning hall when suddenly there was a commotion outside the courtyard and a group of people rushed in with a swagger.

Several members of the Lu family who were blocking the way were blown away and vomited blood. They fell to the ground and struggled to get up.

There were hundreds of people in this group, and at the front were the heads of the eight major families, including the Du family, the Xiang family, the Zhou family, and the Liu family.

Following behind the eight people were the elite backbones of their respective clans. Their strength was all above that of Martial Lord, and there were even several Martial Emperors, who were extremely arrogant.

Lu Zhongting, Wei Zhengyang and other senior members of the Lu family were shocked and their faces changed color in an instant.

What are you afraid of?

Just now I was still worried that the eight major families would take advantage of their power to bully others and cause trouble and humiliate Ye Fan on the day of his funeral, but I didn't expect that they would arrive as soon as I finished speaking.

I'm afraid that a tit-for-tat conflict is inevitable in the Lu family compound today.

With such a loud noise, everyone in the mourning hall was naturally alarmed.

Lu Yuwei walked out first, her eyes wide open with murderous intent, and she shouted, "What are you doing here? The Lu family does not welcome you!"

"What does the small Lu family mean to me? I really don't care whether you welcome me or not!"

The head of the Du family walked out with his hands behind his back, looking arrogant and domineering. As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed into the mourning hall, "Get out of the way quickly, or don't blame me for being rude. Today we are going to... open the coffin and examine the body!"

Wow!
As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar inside and outside the mourning hall.

Lu Zhongting, Wei Zhengyang and other senior members of the Lu family were so angry that their bodies were shaking slightly.

This is simply too much!

The coffin has been sealed and the funeral is about to take place, so why are they talking about opening the coffin for an autopsy?
This was clearly a slap in the face of the Lu family, making a loud slapping sound.

If they really open the coffin, not only will they be laughed at by the outside world, but it will also be unlucky, right?

"Eight major families, you are going too far!"

Lu Yuwei was so angry that she almost vomited blood. The knuckles of her clenched fists turned white. "Ye Fan has been killed by you. There is no body left. Only a few remains were found and cremated into ashes."

"Yet you didn't even spare him his final peace. You bullied and humiliated him on the day of his funeral. Aren't you afraid of being punished by God after doing such evil things?"

The members of the Lu family who were gathered in the courtyard all looked angry. Some of them spontaneously gathered behind Lu Yuwei, clearly determined not to give in and were not afraid of fighting.

In everyone's opinion, the demands of the eight major families this time were really too excessive.

As soon as Ye Fan was killed in the explosion, they collected some body fragments from the pit and took them away for DNA identification.

What Lu Yuwei found afterwards were only a few remains, which had already been cremated into ashes. However, they still came to the door on the day of the funeral, insisting that they wanted to open the coffin and perform an autopsy.

Such an excuse is even more despicable and rampant.

It is clear that there is no need to even cover it up, it is obvious that the Lu family is bullying everyone!

"So what if it turns to ashes? We can still do DNA testing."

Patriarch Du waved his hands impatiently, his eyes swept across the entire place, fierce light flashing in his eyes, "Get out of here right now if you know what's best for you. You can't stop me with your own strength."

"Anyway, Ye Fan's coffin is set to be opened today. Anyone who dares to stop us will not be blamed for...bloodbathing the Lu family today!"

This is by no means an empty threat.

The power within the Du family's main body has been fully activated, and the powerful aura of the Martial Emperor has transformed into an invisible pressure that spreads.

The dust on the ground swirled up and a faint buzzing sound could be heard in the air.

It is clear that he has the intention to kill. If there is a disagreement, he may attack at any time and kill people suddenly.

The faces of the Lu family members in the compound changed drastically.

Some people clenched their fists tighter, but others gasped and subconsciously stepped back.

The Martial Emperor is too terrifying, and the eight major families are too arrogant. The Lu family will definitely not be able to stop them.

Even the Lu family's top brass had all turned pale, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

Lu Zhongting frowned and remained silent.

Wei Zhengyang's eyes were cold, and the power in his body was already being activated.

Lu Xue didn't say anything, but took a few steps forward and stood behind Lu Yuwei.

But some people were worried and apprehensive, and they stammered to persuade Lu Yuwei, "Yuwei, why don't you just step aside and let them take some ashes and check them?"

"Yes, the eight big families are powerful. How can our Lu family fight against them?"

"Ye Fan is gone, and opening the coffin won't have any impact. We can't let our Lu family compound be flooded with blood for this, right?" (End of this chapter)
