Chapter 397: An Eye for an Eye (22)

The slap from the woman was forceful, accompanied by a surge of spiritual energy.

Even though Wen Zhiyun had a high cultivation level and a strong physical body, her face still bore a bright red palm print and a burning sensation.

But compared to the physical pain, what hurt Wen Zhiyun the most was her wounded pride, which was higher than the sky.

Her previous argument with the woman had attracted a crowd of onlookers, and the scene of her being slapped had happened in front of everyone, trampling on her pride.

Furious, she raised her hand without a word and slapped the woman's face, wanting to regain some dignity for herself.

Facing this incoming slap, the woman had no intention of dodging and confidently said, "My husband is the hall master of Pill Hall. Dare you try to hit me?"

With these words, Wen Zhiyun's slap froze in mid-air and couldn't land.

In the end, she let her rationality overcome her impulsiveness and chose to swallow her anger, not wanting to cause trouble for Chen An.

"Smack!"

A crisp slap sound rang out.

Seeing that Wen Zhiyun didn't dare to retaliate, the woman slapped her again, leaving another red palm print on the other side of her face.

Wen Zhiyun tightly pursed her lips and clenched her fist under her clothes.

Other than that, she made no other movements.

Even though she had been slapped twice in public, she ultimately chose to endure it.

"Bad woman, you're not allowed to hit my mother!!!" Chen Yike stood in front of her mother, glaring at the woman and shouting.

The woman didn't go easy on her just because she was young and directly slapped her.

"Smack!"

With just one sound, a fresh red palm print appeared on Chen Yike's face.

Then, she was stunned.

The slap had left her a bit dazed.

"You're asking for death!"

Shen Qingyi's blood surged, and she angrily drew the sword at her waist, her gaze sharp as it rested on the woman's white neck.

Knowing that she wouldn't actually harm her, the woman taunted without fear, "What? Do you want to cut me? Go ahead and try! I bet your daughter will suffer a miserable fate afterwards!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Qingyi instinctively loosened her grip on the sword hilt.

Things were different now, everything was different from before.

Before, she was alone, unburdened, and could freely punish evil.

But now, she had a daughter and couldn't be as carefree as before...

Realizing this, Shen Qingyi's gaze dimmed.

Wen Zhiyun pulled her two daughters' hands and retreated, saying to Shen Qingyi, "Sister Shen, let's go."

She didn't want to get entangled with that woman anymore, as it was better to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Upon hearing Wen Zhiyun's words and considering her three young daughters, Shen Qingyi could only suppress her anger and retract the sword from the woman's neck.

"Xiaosiran, Xiaojinghan, come, mother will carry you and leave."

Gu Xinyue picked up her two young daughters, wanting to leave this place quickly and avoid further confrontation with the savage woman.

Shen Qingyi and Wen Zhiyun felt the same way and turned around to leave with their respective daughters.

"You want to leave? Not so easy!"

"Who do you think you are, daring to defy me? Kneel down and apologize to me!"

"Otherwise, none of you will leave here today!"

The woman relentlessly chased after them.

Gu Xinyue was forced to stop and said, "Madam Tang, it was our fault just now. You are a person of great magnanimity. Can we...?"

"...Smack!"

Before Gu Xinyue could finish speaking, she was slapped in the face.

The force of the slap was not small, knocking her down to the ground and causing the two little daughters clinging to her shoulders to fall as well.

In an instant, the two little daughters cried out in pain, continuously calling out "Mother" and "Father".

"Seeking death!"

Shen Qingyi couldn't bear it anymore and drew her sword from her waist again, rushing towards the woman. She swung her sword at the woman's snow-white neck.

However, she underestimated the strength of the Madam Tang.

Facing Shen Qingyi's aggressive attack, the woman calmly raised her delicate jade hand and effortlessly caught the blade with two fingers.

"This...!"

A hint of surprise appeared in Shen Qingyi's eyes. She didn't expect the woman to be so strong, able to catch her full-force sword with her bare hands.

The woman ignored Shen Qingyi's astonishment and said to the people around her:

"Everyone saw it. This woman attacked me first. When I defend myself and kill this thief who violated the holy rules, remember to testify for me!"

After speaking, the woman's other hand suddenly appeared with several silver needles, which she threw towards Shen Qingyi's face.

I'm going to die... As she watched the silver needles flying towards her, Shen Qingyi's mind was filled with this thought.

But just as the silver needles touched her skin, about to pierce through her head, an invisible force instantly suspended the needles in mid-air.

"Who is attacking?"

Seeing her attack being blocked, the woman angrily shouted.

As soon as she finished speaking, an elegant figure appeared beside Gu Xinyue out of thin air, helping her and the two daughters up from the ground.

"Husband!"

Seeing the familiar figure in front of her, Wen Zhiyun couldn't control her emotions anymore. Her beautiful eyes immediately became moist, and her eyes turned red.

Chen Yike, who followed behind, also complained with a teary voice:

"Father, that bad woman slapped mother's face twice, slapped the nest's face once, and also slapped Aunt Gu's face!"

"I know."

Chen An replied calmly.

After using the Sleep Aid Technique to put the two crying little daughters to sleep, he turned around expressionlessly and walked towards the woman, emitting a strong oppressive aura.

Seeing him approaching continuously and feeling the oppressive aura emanating from him, the woman's heart was instantly filled with fear, instinctively retreating.

"What do you want to do?"

"I am the wife of the Pill Hall's Master!"

"If you lay a hand on me, you will face the consequences..."

"...Smack!"

Before the woman could finish speaking, Chen An slapped her.

The powerful impact of this slap directly knocked the woman to the ground, instantly knocking her unconscious.

However, Chen An did not let the woman off so easily.

With a thought, he took out a pill surrounded by purple mist, accurately shot it into the woman's mouth, and shattered her two front teeth.

The pill dissolved upon entering her mouth, and in the blink of an eye, the woman woke up from her unconscious state.

Seeing her awake, Chen An pulled her up from the ground without touching her and slapped her face again.

"Smack!"

With a loud sound, the woman fainted once again.
