Chapter 4162 — Wei Shenjin's Hard Line
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 2
"Situ Qian, what in the world are you doing?!" Situ Guangzong's forehead bulged with veins, and he bellowed in uncontrollable fury.
The prestige he had painstakingly accumulated over so many years as an elder—all of it had been washed away in an instant by this madwoman Situ Qian's little stunt. From now on, when the other disciples saw him, they would no longer look at him with awe, but would point and whisper about today's affair, about the disgrace of the Situ family!
At the mere thought of it, Situ Guangzong wished he could strangle his own granddaughter to death on the spot with his bare hands!
Jolted by Situ Guangzong's thunderous shout, Situ Qian and Xiaoyuhua, who had been drowning in an endless sea of lust, finally regained a sliver of their senses. They turned their heads and caught sight of Situ Guangzong, who looked ready to devour them alive, and were frightened half to death—and then their hearts gave an uncontrollable, violent spasm.
Bang! The exposed chests of both women burst open at once, blood spraying in every direction, a horrifying sight—right there before everyone's eyes, their hearts had exploded and killed them where they stood!
For a moment, the entire hall fell utterly silent. Everyone, Situ Guangzong included, was struck dumb—none of them had ever imagined that the two women would simply drop dead, just like that.
An instant later, every eye in the room fixed on Situ Guangzong. What had happened today was no small matter—from Ma Shangfeng at the start to the two women's sudden deaths at the end, no fewer than eight people had died in all. This was an event without precedent!
Situ Qian and Xiaoyuhua's shameless, wanton display was especially vile in its influence. This was not merely a disgrace to the Situ family alone—once word spread, it would smear the entire Snow Sword Sect and even make them the laughingstock of all Central Island. The consequences were unthinkable.
"Investigate. Investigate this thoroughly for me. What exactly is the reason behind this!" Situ Guangzong ground out between clenched teeth. He was the highest-ranking elder with real authority present, and Situ Qian was his granddaughter—no one was more affected than he, and no one was more desperate to know the truth.
Situ Qian had made him lose every ounce of face, but any discerning eye could see that her sudden shameless, brazen behavior was plainly the result of drugs. There might well be something else hidden behind it all, and that was the only hope Situ Guangzong could cling to.
The matter was grave. The truth had to be uncovered as quickly as possible to quell the rumors—only then could the damage be kept to a minimum. The Snow Sword Sect's most elite enforcers were dispatched at once, and the first to be investigated was, naturally, Situ Qian's lawful husband, Wei Shenjin.
Wei Shenjin had long been prepared. He laid out the whole affair of Situ Qian's adultery with Ma Shangfeng, and when the news spread, the entire Snow Sword Sect was thrown into an uproar once again.
Ma Shangfeng's corpse lay right there for all to see. Add to that Situ Qian and Xiaoyuhua's conduct, which everyone had witnessed with their own eyes, and Wei Shenjin's account was soon accepted by all.
Not only had she committed adultery—in the end she had sunk so low as to spare not even passing strangers. Fornicating in broad daylight before a crowd, until she grew so overexcited that she dropped dead on the spot!
In an instant, Situ Qian—whose name was already on everyone's lips—became in public opinion a woman who would bed any man alive, a slut fit to be written into the annals of Cloud Terrace Island and enshrined as the archetypal wanton woman of all time.
To this, Situ Guangzong could offer no rebuttal. As her grandfather, he had in truth always known something of Situ Qian's character, and the adultery with Ma Shangfeng had been verified as fact—there was no twisting black into white on that point.
