"One must admit, Snow Lee's portrayal of Madam Ma and Li Mochou is truly irreplaceable. Every gesture is full of exotic charm—slurp."
"Seriously, I didn't like Madam Ma, this crazy bitch, back then. Looking back now, she's actually pretty hot."
"If only Qiao Feng had been just a little bit more like a normal man, none of the later events would have happened."
"If only Duan Zhengchun hadn't been such a scumbag and could have properly settled those women, none of this would have happened either."
"Not whitewashing her: she teamed up with her lover to murder her husband, and indirectly killed Azhu. I'm crying my eyes out, my poor Azhu..."
"In Master Jin's books, any female character with 'Min' in her name is trouble—take Kang Min, Ding Minjun, and Zhao Min."
"Hahaha, seriously, the creator is so talented and creative, having Duan Zhengchun and those women post on Weibo to officially announce their breakups. Pfft, haha, Dao Baifeng's was hilarious, I couldn't help laughing. Sob, my Go Fighting is real, bring back Go Fighting!"
...
Kingdom of Dali:
Duan Zhengchun: "It... it's little Kang."
Thinking back to the past, the year they pledged their love, he had personally placed a string of jasmine flowers in her hair.
Beside him, Princess Consort Dao Baifeng wore a dark expression the entire time, looking very much like she wanted to pack her bags and return to the Taoist temple that very night.
It was just like what was written on that novel 'letter' up there on the Celestial Screen,
which completely laid bare her inner thoughts:
Some men are just born scumbags.
...
Almond Grove:
Azhu's eyes welled with tears: "My... my father is... he's Prince Duan of Dali, and I also have a younger sister."
Duan Yu, standing nearby, wore an awkward expression.
He never expected to stumble upon gossip about his own old man,
not only having his romantic history exposed in such a novel way,
but also casually dragging out a pair of twin daughters left out in the cold.
"Sister Azhu... Younger sister Azhu."
"Don't worry, I will definitely ask Your Imperial Uncle to make things right for you and younger sister Azzi, so that you sisters can return to Dali and acknowledge your ancestry."
What could he do? His old man was unreliable.
As a son, he had to clean up his father's mess.
Come to think of it,
which sister number was this?
First there was younger sister Wan, younger sister Mu Wanqing,
then younger sister Zhong Ling,
now there was younger sister Azhu, and younger sister Azzi, whose whereabouts were unknown.
Who knew if more sisters would pop up in the future?
Duan Yu spread his hands, feeling utterly exhausted.
Wang Yuyan: "..."
With her sharp eyes,
when the Celestial Screen briefly flashed through Duan Zhengchun's romantic history,
she seemed to have seen the name of her own mother, Li Qingluo.
A bad premonition arose in her heart.
...
Xingxiu Sect:
Azzi had nothing to do, so she was watching the Celestial Screen outside with her fellow apprentices.
"What's wrong with this dad? Instead of avenging his daughter, he rekindles romance with an old flame, only caring about his lower body—disgusting, puke."
Until later in the video,
it showed Kang Min having her hand and foot tendons severed, and her entire face slashed open,
and even exposed the fact that Azzi was Azhu's younger sister.
At that moment,
Azzi was truly, utterly shocked,
so astonished that her big eyeballs nearly popped out of her head.
"The person up there is me?"
A wave of intense satisfaction washed over Azzi,
before she immediately snapped back to reality.
"Ah!! What a vicious woman, daring to kill my sister! I'm so mad, I'm going to finish you off!! I'm so mad, so mad!"
"Why did they only sever her hand and foot tendons? What's slashing her face? They should sprinkle our Xingxiu Sect's most potent poison onto her wounds!"
"They should also pull out her tongue, and give her a yin-yang haircut, that way scaring her to death would be truly satisfying, hahahaha..."
...
As the protagonist of the video, Kang Min,
faced with this sudden turn of events,
was struck dumb as if by lightning, frozen in place.
Those who had previously supported her
now hurriedly turned their spears around to point at Kang Min and the others.
"Good one, you vicious woman! You clearly saw Chief Wang's secret letter long ago, yet you feigned ignorance and used us as tools!"
"You, you, you actually had an illicit affair with Elder Bai! How could you face me—face our Deputy Chief Ma? You loose, fickle woman!"
"Brother, you got it wrong, it's fickle and loose-flowing. Besides, it's not just Elder Bai, there's also Elder Quan Guanqing!"
"Everyone, surround them! Don't let these two old bastards who cuckolded our brother get away!"
Bai Shijing and Quan Guanqing
were captured by the Beggar Sect brothers before they even had time to react.
Damn it, who leaked our plan?!
Kang Min stared fixedly at the Celestial Screen.
When she saw her own blood-stained, mangled, fierce, and hideous face,
the breath that supported her final will completely dissipated.
She could finally no longer hold on,
and collapsed limply to the ground.
All her scheming and calculations came to naught, costing her own life in the end.
Qiao Feng glanced at Bai Shijing and Quan Guanqing.
He had never imagined that Deputy Chief Ma Dayuan
had actually died at the hands of a brother within his own sect.
He looked at Bai Shijing with disappointment.
This was the Law Enforcement Elder of their Beggar Sect!
Bai Shijing's body trembled, still hoping to quibble for a bit,
but when he looked up and met Qiao Feng's gaze of grief and disappointment,
he finally lowered his head and tacitly admitted to the murder.
He was not evil by nature, otherwise he couldn't have served as Law Enforcement Elder,
it was simply a pity that he sank into the sea of desire, taking one wrong step after another.
Deeply disappointed, Qiao Feng shook his head and looked at Quan Guanqing beside him: "And you?"
Quan Guanqing calmed down,
his eyes darted around,
and he immediately came up with a countermeasure.
"Chief Qiao, I didn't kill Deputy Chief Ma. At most, you can only accuse me of having a clandestine affair with Madam Ma."
He even pointed his hand toward Elder Xu, who was trying his best to lower his presence: "If you want to punish someone, please punish Elder Xu right along with us."
Quan Guanqing had completely given up; he was letting it all hang out now.
If he couldn't survive today, he would drag someone down with him.
This really stirred up a hornet's nest.
The Beggar Sect disciples all turned their gazes toward Elder Xu.
They hadn't expected an unexpected bonus.
Elder Xu almost had a rush of blood shoot straight to his head on the spot: "...Quan Guanqing, you *******!"
Seeing that some Beggar Sect disciples were genuinely walking over,
Elder Xu resisted with all his might,
roaring at the top of his lungs,
"You cannot do this! Qiao Feng, you are a Khitan, you cannot be the Chief of the Beggar Sect, you cannot!!"
"We are all subjects of the Great Song, how can you follow the orders of a Khitan and persecute your own compatriots?"
"Qiao Feng is a Khitan, he is a mortal enemy of the Great Song! Do not be fooled by him!"
Elder Xu never imagined
that in his old age, meddling in romance would lead him to such a disgraced and infamous end.
This time, he had simply intended to drive Qiao Feng away, then seize the opportunity to regain supreme power over the Beggar Sect and enjoy being the Chief,
only for this sudden upheaval from the heavens to catch him completely off guard.
Since I am not going to have a good time, nobody gets to play!
After today, Qiao Feng, your identity as a Khitan is thoroughly sealed.
Judging by the attitude of everyone present today toward outsiders,
the entire Great Song will no longer have a place for you, Qiao Feng.
For a moment,
the scene descended into extreme chaos.
There were still quite a few disciples in the Beggar Sect who held deep blood feuds with the Khitan enemy state.
Stirred up and manipulated by Elder Xu's disruption,
they truly acted without thinking and joined in the clamor, demanding that Qiao Feng, the Khitan, step down.
"Khitan dog, get out of the Beggar Sect! Get out of the Great Song!"
"Brothers, did something go wrong? Right now, avenging Deputy Chief Ma is what matters!"
"I don't care, Khitans killed my whole family, so I want Khitans to die! I just refuse to submit!"
"That's right, I don't submit to Qiao Feng either! A Khitan is not fit to be our Beggar Sect Chief!"
"We naturally must avenge Deputy Chief Ma, but the orders shouldn't be issued by Qiao Feng, a Khitan!"
