Chapter 325: Hatred

Hence, the Embroidered Uniform Guards chased nearly a hundred children out of the secret room like they were chasing ducks. The children muttered and walked forward, chattering like sparrows.
When the children were out of earshot, the chamber fell silent again. It was empty, and the dull brown lines on the four walls were even more glaring.
Gu Yanfei was still looking at the secret room.
The spirit gathering and luck borrowing array on the wall was already quite rare for this small world. Shangqing was indeed a talented cultivator, but unfortunately, she had gone down the wrong path.
“Second Lady Gu, please.”
He Lie respectfully extended his hand and gestured for Gu Yanfei to leave. The two of them left the underground secret room one after another and walked all the way out of the dark rockery.
Outside the rockery, it was bright and spacious, and the blue sky was like the sea.
The surroundings were in a mess. Flowers and trees were swaying left and right, the bonsai was shattered, and half of the flower corridor had been knocked down… It was as if a violent wind had passed through.
However, nobody cared about this. They felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from their shoulders. They felt that even the cold wind and bleak air seemed to have become much more refreshing.
Several Embroidered Uniform Guards secretly wiped the cold sweat off their foreheads. They felt that they definitely wouldn’t come to such a godforsaken place again.
The children were quickly brought out of the garden by the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
He Lie wanted to get someone to send Gu Yanfei back, but he heard Gu Yanfei say first, “Lord He, I want to see the British Duchess. Is that okay?”
“Of course.” He Lie answered without hesitation. “She’s in the main hall. This way, please.”
He Lie could even arrange for Gu Yanfei to meet all the members of the Yu family, let alone Madam Yu. He could even meet Yu Si secretly.
He Lie personally brought Gu Yanfei to the main hall of the Yu Residence.
Four Embroidered Uniform Guards stood guard under the eaves outside the main hall like spears. The surroundings were silent. This residence seemed to have become a dead house, and no one else could be seen.
“Squeak.”
The door to the main hall was opened from the outside by the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
Inside, Eldest Madam Yu, Madam Yu, and Yu Chaoyun were sitting in a daze. They were all uneasy. When they saw the door open, they raised their eyes and looked in the direction of the door.
Madam Yu’s eyes lit up. Her first reaction was that the British Duke was here.
She looked up agitatedly and saw a slender and exquisite figure appear outside the hall. A corner of her clothes fluttered in the wind.
Gu Yanfei!
Madam Yu’s eyes widened and her pupils constricted. Her gaze was like an ice blade that scraped Gu Yanfei’s face.
Their gazes met in silence.
Gu Yanfei stopped under the roof. The shadow of the roof fell on her jade-white face, and her eyes were as deep as a pool.
Madam Yu suddenly stood up from her chair with a tense expression on her graceful face. She instinctively wanted to ask Gu Yanfei why she was here, but she swallowed her words. Her voice slowly squeezed out from between her teeth. “It’s really you!’
Even though she already knew that Gu Yanfei was an expert in Dao techniques, she still looked down on such a vulgar girl.
Even if she had to do it again, she still didn’t want such a scheming and petty daughter-in-law.
Madam Yu raised her chin slightly and stood elegantly, still high up in the air.
“It’s me.” Gu Yanfei nodded bluntly with a cheerful smile.
The muscles on Madam Yu’s cheeks twitched rapidly, and she almost couldn’t maintain her graceful appearance. She gritted her teeth and asked coldly, ‘Why?”
‘Why must you go against our Yu Family?!”
Gu Yanfei stared fixedly at Madam Yu.
After staring at her for a moment, Gu Yanfei smiled and asked, “Did you tell them why you took the lives of those children to obtain the providence of your Yu Family for a hundred years?”
” ” At the back, Yu Chaoyun’s heart suddenly trembled a few times. She immediately understood.
So this was what she wanted to inquire about previously but didn ‘t manage to find out.
It turned out that Eldest Uncle had secretly committed such a huge crime!
Yu Chaoyun’s eyes flickered, and she bit her lower lip so hard that it almost bled. Then what should she do?
Madam Yu’s face turned redder and redder. Her delicate body trembled, and the nails on her hand almost broke her soft palm. She said hatefully, “Gu Yanfei, did we have a grudge in our previous life?”
The two families had already broken off their engagement and broken up. However, Gu Yanfei was clearly harboring a grudge against her and had been targeting her!
“Yes.” Gu Yanfei nodded calmly again.
She did have a grudge against the Yu Family for two lifetimes.
The painful memories of that time were like maggots attached to her bones. They haunted her for a long, long time and finally became a part of her inner demon, engraved in the depths of her heart.
In this life, the Yu Family still refused to give up.
Thinking of the “mark” that Shangqing had left on her brother in her previous lifetime, Gu Yanfei’s eyes were filled with a terrifying coldness..
