Governor Su issued a stirring call to heroes.
Upon receiving the hero invitation, a surge of determination filled the hearts of the heroes, prompting them to converge on Shanglin one after another. They expressed their readiness to join forces and eliminate the bandits, driven by a sharedmitment to rid thend of evil and champion justice.<div>
Reports circted that, under the leadership of the martial arts world’s leader, the heroes had ventured into the mountains to root out the bandits. Many were either in or had fled, while the majority of the remaining captives faced interrogation. The heroes, undeterred, persisted in scouring the mountains for any overlooked bandits.
During interrogations, they extracted information regarding the location of other bandits and their external connections. The heroes sternly warned of impending eradication.
Upon learning this news, the Wang family members felt that the current circumstances were likely less perilous for them.
After deliberation, they implored the elderly n leader to lead a group to reim the assets.
Wang San argued, “n Leader, I haven’t said anything false. It’s the truth.”
“The family rule is indeed to enjoy until death, and I dare not defy it. But it was clearly all of you who relinquished my cousin’s assets!”
“When Wang Nian sought to forcibly marry my cousin’s wife and im the shop as her dowry, where were you? Why didn’t you assert your desire to enjoy until your family’s end?”
“All of you feared death, dreading the repercussions for your families. I believed that you had already abandoned my cousin’s family’s assets.”
“Because my nsmen had forsaken my cousin’s family. After their demise, no one advocated for justice on their behalf!”
“Based on this, you cannot now seize my cousin’s family’s assets again!”
A Wang nsman sneered, “You’re openly defending her, but secretly aiming to monopolize these assets? Don’t even think about it!”<div>
Wang San pointed at the sky and swore, “If I keep my cousin’s assets for myself, may I be struck by lightning and die a horrible death!”
Another impatient nsman interrupted, “Wang San, shut up! This method has been a rule for thousands of years. It’s not something that can be changed with a few words from you!”
Wang San pleaded, “Everyone knows that my cousin’s wife no longer has a family. How can she survive without these assets? Have you thought about it?”
“Are you really going to force her, who has just returned from the brink of death, into a corner?”
The n leader, Wang Yi, retorted coldly, “So what if we force her into a corner?”
“A woman who has lost her chastity should die in front of her own cemetery!”
Wang San grabbed a wooden stick, shielding Chen Lin’er, and said angrily,
“Let’s see who dares to force her to die!”
“If you want her dead, step over my corpse first!”
A middle-aged manpromised, “It’s eptable if she doesn’t want to die as an apology. After losing her assets, she can marry someone else, but she can’t take away a single cent of the Wang family’s wealth.”
The n leader, Wang Yi, uttered grimly, “Wang San, there are some things you are yet to learn, aren’t there?”
He fixed a gloomy gaze on Chen Lin’er.
“Chen Lin’er! How did you end up in Shanglin? Why don’t you have a family? Don’t assume others are oblivious, and don’t presume you’ve deceived everyone!”
“If you want us to keep your identity a secret, you had better willingly surrender the deed to the house and shop!”
Chen Lin’er was taken aback.
She had only shared her true identity with herte husband.
How did the n leadere to know?
Wang Yi discerned the issue from Chen Lin’er’s reaction and grasped the truth.
His suspicion had proven correct. There was indeed an undisclosed aspect to Chen Lin’er’s identity!
As he observed her shocked countenance, she seemed to be someone who hadmitted a crime and fled..
