Meng Yu's wistful words left Liu Zixuan momentarily stunned.

He didn't quite agree. Since he had been kicked out by those people from the Meng Family, now that he was back, he intended to slap them in the face!

Besides, it's not like he had had a tough time outside. With Meng Yu's current fame and some future potential, it was enough to slap the faces of those guys from the Meng Family.

After all, Meng Yu had a future, but the Meng Family had long been in decline, only being propped up by their name.

Moreover, wasn't there still Liu Zixuan?

He slowly walked to Meng Yu's side, took her delicate hand, and smiled, "Don't be afraid of anything, I'm right by your side. They won't dare to do anything to you!"

"Zixuan, let's first assess the situation once we get inside. If we can resolve things peacefully, that's better. I don't want you getting hurt because of me," Meng Yu whispered gently, looking at Liu Zixuan.

Liu Zixuan nodded. Although he thought the chances of resolving this peacefully were less than one percent, he didn't argue since Meng Yu had said so.

He knew that Meng Yu wanted to reason with the people of the Meng Family.

But if they were reasonable, they wouldn't have used Meng Yu's parents as leverage.

Immediately, Meng Yu took a deep breath, "Let's go in!"

"Okay!"

Liu Zixuan nodded, then held Meng Yu's delicate hand and walked toward the Meng Family's gate.

At a glance inside, large white flowers were hung on both sides of the Meng Family's gate, and looking further in, there were alternating black and white decorations, with a large spirit hall faintly visible in the main courtyard.

"In the village, funerals are just simple affairs, handled roughly, but a family like this organizes a funeral more lavishly than weddings in some small places!" Liu Zixuan mumbled.

Meng Yu snorted, "Actually, these rich people are just after appearances. Sometimes they look incredibly glamorous outside, but back home, they might not eat or live as well as people from small places!"

"Dying for appearances and living in misery!"

"Who's there!"

Just then, a man suddenly walked over, with a white rope tied around his waist, and a black mourning band on his left arm.

"I'm Meng Yu, specially coming from Ghost Wood City at Meng Zeyang's request," Meng Yu stated directly.

"Meng Yu?" The man looked her up and down, then said, "In that case, wait here, I'll go in and report!"

As the man walked in, Liu Zixuan asked, "Logically, they should recognize you. Apart from your celebrity status, didn't you come to see Meng Dongdong before?"

"When I came to see Dongdong before, I usually met in nearby restaurants or hotels; I never went inside," Meng Yu explained.

"No wonder." Liu Zixuan suddenly understood, seeing that Meng Yu was indeed a strong girl. Otherwise, with the current power of the Meng Family, she might have changed her opinion of them.

While the two were casually chatting, suddenly more than ten people came running out from inside, surrounding Liu Zixuan and Meng Yu at the doorway in no time.

Leading them were Meng Zeyang, whose arm Liu Zixuan had injured, and his wife Lv Liqin!

The seven or eight men alongside them were dressed uniformly, each holding a shiny knife.

They looked very intimidating.

"Liu Zixuan, so you did come!" Meng Zeyang said coldly.

"If I didn't come, wouldn't that ruin your plan?"

Ever since Liu Zixuan learned that Meng Yu's parents had been captured, he had already guessed many things.

This time, it wasn't just about threatening Meng Yu to marry the collaborator's son but also about luring Liu Zixuan to Celestial Capital using this incident.

In Ghost Wood City, they were like strong dragons, but however strong, they couldn't defeat the local snake; moreover, there were only a few of them back then.

But now, it was different; the roles had been completely reversed, they were the masters here, while Liu Zixuan had come alone.

Of course, in their eyes, they might have been strong dragons in Ghost Wood City, but Liu Zixuan in Celestial Capital was nothing more than a bug waiting to be crushed!

They had a reason to believe Liu Zixuan wouldn't leave Meng Yu alone; once he came, he would walk into the trap they set.

The reason was simple: their son, Meng Zhihao, died at Liu Zixuan's hands, and Lv Liqin's brother, Lv Chenghu, also died at Liu Zixuan's hands.

Such deep hatred could not go unavenged!

Seeing Liu Zixuan so calm, Lv Liqin sneered, "Liu Zixuan, do you think you still have the right to be smug? Take a good look, this is Celestial Capital, at the gate of my Meng Family, not your Ghost Wood City!"

"Well, I'm really scared then!" Liu Zixuan mocked with a smile.

"I don't know how big your heart is. At this point, you still find time to laugh!"

Meng Zeyang snorted coldly, "This time, no matter what, it's impossible for you to walk out of Celestial Capital alive!"

"Right now, Meng Yu's parents are in my hands. If you dare do anything, I can take their lives at any moment. Then, let's see how you play the hero in front of the beauty?"

"Moreover, the Meng Yu you like will abandon you and marry someone else! How will you handle it then?"

"What a scheme!" Liu Zixuan's expression gradually became gloomy. He hadn't expected such despicable tactics; even if someone else did so, they wouldn't say it outright, but he never imagined the opponent would be so brazen!

Seeing Liu Zixuan's face change, both Lv Liqin and Meng Zeyang displayed even more smug expressions.

Meng Zeyang sneered with intense amusement in his eyes, "Using the words you once said to me in Ghost Wood City: Liu Zixuan, if you're upset, bite me!"

"Sorry, I don't eat shit!" Liu Zixuan immediately retorted!

"You!"

Back then, Liu Zixuan's "bite me" left Meng Zeyang speechless. Now, standing in a position of advantage, he intended to use the same words to slap Liu Zixuan in the face.

But unexpectedly, Liu Zixuan completely deviated from the script and shot back directly.

For a moment, Meng Zeyang's face turned red with anger!

"What's there to talk about, just kill him!" Lv Liqin, feeling embarrassed, promptly shifted the topic and shouted.

"Attack!" Meng Zeyang ordered, and those men immediately approached Liu Zixuan.

"Stop!"

Before they could act, Meng Yu suddenly shouted.

"What do you want?" Lv Liqin stepped forward, "Meng Yu, you should know that now you have no right to speak!"

"Do I not?" Meng Yu defiantly stared at Lv Liqin, "You want me back just to marry the collaborator's son; that's your main goal. But I'm telling you, if Zixuan gets hurt or killed, you'll never succeed in your purpose."

"Are you threatening us?" Meng Zeyang questioned hoarsely.
