Stop pretending, the fake heiress is actually a master of metaphysics.

"Who you marry is up to us!"

"Your only purpose in this life is to save up for your brother's dowry! If you weren't of that use, I would have drowned you the moment you were born!"

Fang Xiaoyuan turned her head and covered her face.

However, the pain I had imagined did not come.

She looked up and saw Gu Yuncheng and Shen Nian standing on either side of her, blocking her father's slap.

Shen Nian kicked her father away.

Gu Yuncheng held up his phone and said, "Friends in the live stream, you all saw it, right? They attacked first, and now we are going to defend ourselves."

"If they stop us and don't let us leave, that's a restriction of personal freedom. Please remember to call the police for us."

It turned out that Gu Yuncheng had started a live stream from the moment they met, just to record the most disgusting side of this family.

"What are you filming? Stop filming!"

Enraged, Fang Xiaoyuan's father got up from the ground and lunged at Gu Yuncheng to snatch his phone.

While nimbly dodging, Gu Yuncheng said, "This phone is a limited edition, only five in the world, and it costs 1.2 million. If you break it, you could probably spend six or seven years in jail."

The live stream chat at this moment:

[As expected of Young Master Gu, even a casual phone of his is almost worth the price of a house in a small town.]

My goodness, this family is shameless!

[Don't cry, little sister. Let's stay far away from this family in the future, so they don't bleed us dry.]

Am I the only one curious why Young Master Gu is with Master Shen?

[Didn't you guys see the entertainment news? Last time, when Young Master Gu encountered a ghost in the tomb, it was Master Shen who led him out.]

It seems the Gu family is planning a banquet to formally thank Master Shen, but we can't possibly attend.

So that's how it was.

In short, Master Shen is awesome.

[Yes, during the live stream that day, Master Shen said he could help this girl break free from her ghost marriage. I thought it was a scam, but I didn't expect it to be broken so quickly.]

[Can this whole family just die?!]

While the Fang family was still at an impasse with Gu Yuncheng and his group, Huang Xingcai and his wife hung up the phone, their faces pale.

Their son has not only relapsed into a state of mental disability, but he also just fell down the stairs and is in critical condition.

He looked at Shen Nian and said hatefully, "If anything happens to my son, I won't let you off the hook."

Gu Yuncheng: "Oh, let's add one more charge: the crime of threatening and intimidating."

Shen Nian glanced at him and said coldly, "All of this is your own fault."

She had read the destinies of those two children.

Although they are born with intellectual disabilities, if they grow up normally, there is still hope for recovery.

However, in order to have children with normal intelligence, they made a deal with their ancestors, using evil magic to fill the missing souls, causing them to be plagued by yin energy.

Even a normal person would have their luck and lifespan shortened if they were exposed to yin energy for too long, let alone two young children.

Now that the backlash has begun, it remains to be seen whether these two children will survive to adulthood without dying young.

"I don't have time to waste with you now, honey, let's get to the hospital."

The Huang Xingcai couple staggered slightly but hurriedly ran towards the town at the foot of the mountain.

Shen Nian withdrew her gaze and looked at the Fang family members in front of her: "Make way, we're leaving too."

The Fang family still tried to stop them.

Fang Xiaoyuan's mother said, "If you want to leave, you can, but give us 100,000 yuan now and I'll let you go."

Now that the ghost marriage is over, the Wang family will definitely want the 100,000 yuan back.

The Wang family was a prominent family in town; they couldn't afford to offend them.

But the Fang family was not willing to let their efforts come to nothing.

"We'll let bygones be bygones regarding your collusion with outsiders to deceive us. But since you've dissolved the ghost marriage, and the Wang family wants the betrothal gifts back, you'll have to make up for that!"

Wow, this old lady is so shameless!

[If the ghost marriage isn't resolved, this young woman might lose her life, and now they're even chasing her for 100,000 yuan!]

[This is utterly out of their mind! Pah! Have no shame!]

There's a feeling of helplessness, like a slap that can't even penetrate the screen...

Gu Yuncheng nodded: "This time it's extortion, and the amount exceeds 100,000, so you can go to jail."

Fang Xiaoyuan's mother exclaimed, "This isn't extortion! She's my daughter, and she has an obligation to support me!"

【Pah! That's not alimony! That's clearly dowry money for her son.】

Fang Xiaoyuan took one last look at her nominal parents.

"I won't give it to you."

"As for alimony, go ahead and sue me in court. I'll pay whatever the court orders me to pay."

"Oh, by the way, I will also hand over all the evidence of your abuse over the years to the court. In the end, the judgment will probably only require me to pay you the most basic alimony."

"Master Shen, Young Master Gu, let's go. Thank you for your hard work."

Fang's two uncles tried to stop him again: "Xiao Yuan, you don't need to be so harsh. We're family, why are we in court? These are your parents after all..."

"Get out of the way."

Fang Xiaoyuan said coldly.

The Fang family looked at Fang Xiaoyuan, then at Shen Nian and Gu Yuncheng beside her, and finally, no matter how unwilling they were, they could only watch them leave.

After leaving that mountain, Fang Xiaoyuan felt as if all his strength had been drained, so weak that he could barely stand.

Shen Nian helped her up: "Are you alright?"

Fang Xiaoyuan nodded: "Let's leave here."

"I don't want to stay here any longer."

Shen Nian glanced at Gu Yuncheng, indicating that he should book the train tickets.

Gu Yuncheng gave an OK sign and then said to the person on the other end of the phone, "You can come in now."

Just as Fang Xiaoyuan was about to ask when they could come in, he heard the loud sound of a helicopter propeller coming from above.

She slowly opened her eyes wide, and for the first time, she had a concrete understanding of Gu Yuncheng's identity.

The helicopter slowly hovered on the flat grassland at the foot of the mountain.

"Let's go, we can go back now."

After the three boarded the helicopter, it took off smoothly.

Looking out the window at the lush, expansive forest and mountains below, Shen Nian asked, "When we came here..."

Gu Yuncheng knew what she was going to ask: "We were in too much of a rush when we came, and we didn't have time to apply for a flight route."

He grinned and said, "Even if I'm a spoiled brat, I'm still a law-abiding young master!"

Seeing a rare hint of curiosity on Shen Nian's face, he asked, "Haven't you sat here before?"

"no."

Shen Nian shook her head: "Actually, I've never ridden either the high-speed rail or the regular train when I came here."

"So...what did you usually ride when you went out?"

"Sword control".

"...Isn't that something you only see in cultivation novels?"

Gu Yuncheng looked somewhat bewildered.

Shen Nian: "...Do you really think that seeing ghosts in broad daylight and summoning heavenly lightning are things that actually exist in reality?"

Gu Yuncheng: ...

That's true.

"So, how high can you fly on a sword?"

"Very high."

"How far can it fly?"

"It can roam freely...across the nine provinces and four seas, the six directions and eight wastelands."

A full house of flowers drunk three thousand guests, a sword of frost and cold fourteen states.

Fang Xiaoyuan and Gu Yuncheng both closed their eyes and fell asleep, while Shen Nian looked at the sky and clouds outside the window and thought that when she first learned to fly on a sword, she seemed to have asked her master these two questions.
