Chapter 1816: Refusal to Acknowledge Her Identity

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Second Elder had never worked so hard before. Although he was advanced in age, he swam in a swift and efficient manner. Even his subordinates didn’t swim as fast as he did.

When the shark opened its mouth, it nearly scared them to death.

Second Elder suddenly regretted messing with Yun Bixue…

What business was it of his that she gave birth?!

He could very well have continued to be the second elder and enjoy his life. But look at him now. After being a busybody, he didn’t even know if he could live to continue enjoying life!

Second Elder was pitiful indeed. In the several decades that he lived, he had never been in such a pathetic state.

“Ah…” One of his subordinates, who wasn’t too good at swimming, was eaten by the shark in one swoop. As he struggled, blood swooshed around…

When those people swimming ahead turned back and saw this, they were so horrified they nearly dropped to the bottom of the sea.

Aahhh… too scary! It’s too scary to be so up close with a shark. They felt a bitter sensation in their hearts…

Indeed, humans have unlimited potential. Immediately, these people started speeding through the sea like machines.

Right now, on the ship, someone had detected a signal and reported to Yun Bixue.

Yun Bixue said calmly, “Once they land on the shore, arrest them. Then retract the baits and scatter something into the sea to dispel the smell.”

With her objective reached, she wouldn’t let those sharks continue to stay in the vicinity. After all, she didn’t wish to cause injuries to the island’s residents.

“Yes, I’ll get it done right away.”

When Second Elder and his subordinates swam to the shore, they had used up all their strengths and were panting heavily.

But when he looked up, he saw that Yun Bixue had been waiting here with his men.

Yun Bixue waved her hand, and the hidden guards immediately tied them all up.

Second Elder finally conceded defeat. He didn’t have other thoughts now and only felt that it was good to stay alive!

After all, landing in Yun Bixue’s hands was better than being eaten by sharks.

Yun Bixue bade the island master farewell, then took Second Elder and his men onto the ship. Once on the ship, she began the interrogation.

Second Elder was depleted of energy and couldn’t stand to be tortured now, so he confessed everything he knew.

“Yun Bixue, although Master, Matron, and Young Master Xie acknowledge your identity, you can’t ignore the other influences at the headquarters. I, as a member of the Elder’s Home, refuse to acknowledge you.”

“They have protected you very well. Plus, the headquarters was busy with matters lately, so news of you didn’t reach them.”

“Although your identity isn’t acknowledged, the bloodline of the Xie family can’t remain outside. Traditionally, Brocade Hall is the place where successors are groomed. It’s only right that Little Master be subject to this arrangement.”

“If you weren’t being protected, according to the rules of the Elder’s Home, you would be killed, and Little Master would be brought back to the headquarters.”

When this was said, one of the hidden guards kicked Second Elder and said, “Our Young Madam doesn’t need you to acknowledge her. Who do you think you are? Young Madam will kill you if it pleases her now!”

“Hmph. I wonder what tricks you played to make these hidden guards obey your commands?” Second Elder felt it was very strange. The hidden guards of the Xie family had all been through strict training and were loyal to their master. When had they ever shown such loyalty to others?

What he didn’t understand was that there was a type of people who were born with the aura of someone in power, with the vigor to make one be loyal subordinates to them.

Narrowing her eyes, Yun Bixue said dangerously, “Second Elder, right? You’re making it sound so pleasant, but in fact, you’re probably taking the child back to the headquarters for the sake of the Xie family. He won’t necessarily survive at Brocade Hall, right?”
