Chapter 37 My grandfather suspects you're having an affair with my grandmother.
"Dad, what are you doing? There are so many people watching."
"You're afraid of losing face? Afraid of people seeing? You've disgraced the whole family."
boom!
The artificial hill was shattered by the purple light.
"Dad, are you really going to beat me to death?"
"I'll beat you to death and then have another one!"
Tan Shuo ran around everywhere, his hair disheveled, his large clothes torn to shreds, but Tan Yue was still not satisfied. With a bang, the pavilion next to him collapsed.
No one around dared to advise or stop him. Tan Xing'er had already come out of the house, but even seeing her grandfather's outburst, she didn't dare go over. If even her granddaughter, Tan Xing'er, dared not go, then her daughter-in-law, Xiang Suyun, was even less likely to go.
"Mother, save me—"
Tan Shuo dodged and shouted.
Just then, a figure rushed out and hugged Tan Yue.
"Husband, husband, he's your only son! Are you really going to beat him to death?" Xiao Wanmei cried out loudly, holding Tan Yue in her arms. Tan Yue held a whip in one hand and tried to push Xiao Wanmei away with the other, but Xiao Wanmei held her tightly.
Upon seeing this, Tan Shuo immediately fled at top speed.
"Let go of me!"
Fearing Tan Yue would chase after them, Xiao Wanmei clung to him tightly. In the ensuing struggle, a small portrait fell from Xiao Wanmei's body. It was a red paper, and the portrait was remarkably lifelike—a man wearing a mask.
Everyone in the mansion knew that Xiao Wanmei was good at paper cutting, so it wasn't a big deal. But when the little portrait fell out, her expression changed drastically, and she looked at her husband, Tan Yue, with a look of fear and guilt.
Tan Yue became suspicious, and with a wave of her hand, the small statue that had fallen to the ground was in her hand.
"What...what is this?" Tan Yue asked Xiao Wanmei.
Xiao Wanmei's face turned pale, and Tan Xing'er, who was next to her, realized who the portrait was of and her face also immediately turned pale.
Xiang Suyun noticed it too; she was also pale.
"No, it's nothing, I just cut it casually," Xiao Wanmei said.
"It was just a random cut, what are you panicking about? Who is he? Who is he?" Realizing she was being cuckolded, Tan Yue flew into a rage, grabbed Xiao Wanmei's hand, and the terrifying pressure of a late-stage Spirit King Realm expert filled the entire City Lord's Mansion. Under this pressure, everyone in the City Lord's Mansion trembled.
Xiao Wanmei's hand was being gripped so tightly by Tan Yue that it was almost broken. Seeing Tan Yue's furious expression, how could she dare to tell the truth?
"What's wrong with you? It's just a paper figure I cut out!" Xiao Wanmei said sternly, determined to deny it to the death.
Tan Yue released her and looked at Tan Xing'er and Xiang Suyun. The two were trembling like leaves, but Tan Yue bypassed them and looked at Xiao Wanmei's personal maid. As soon as the maid met his gaze, her legs went weak and she knelt down.
With a cold face, Tan Yue raised her hand, and the maid was grabbed into the air by the illusory palm, her neck was choked, and she showed an expression of extreme pain.
"Who is he?" Tan Yue asked ominously.
The maid, her face filled with terror, immediately confessed, "It's Master Li Bai!"
boom!
The maid was thrown out by Tan Yue like trash, smashing through a wall, her fate unknown.
Li Bai, Li Bai, it's that Li Bai again! Not only did he bewitch his son, he also seduced his wife.
This is intolerable!
Tan Yue flew into a rage, pointing at his wife in disbelief and asking, "When did you two start dating?"
"No, I didn't. My relationship with Mr. Li Bai is completely innocent. I've only met him twice, and both times there were other people present. What could have happened between us? Don't talk nonsense," Xiao Wanmei defended herself.
"You've already cut out someone else's portrait and hidden it on your person, and you still say you didn't? I'm going to kill him, I'm going to grind that bastard to dust!" Tan Yue roared in fury. His terrifying aura caused those around him to turn pale, and those with lower cultivation levels vomited blood on the spot. The ground beneath his feet cracked, and his entire body erupted with terrifying shockwaves.
Seeing his murderous intent and his intention to kill Mr. Li Bai, Xiao Wanmei immediately hugged him.
"Don't go crazy, there's really nothing between him and me."
"Get out of here! You bitch!"
Xiao Wanmei was slapped and pushed to the ground. Tan Yue had already transformed into a streak of light and flew towards the Mu residence. He was unaware that Gu Yan had already left the Mu residence.
"Grandma!" Tan Xing'er helped Xiao Wanmei up.
Xiao Wanmei's eyes widened as she grabbed Tan Xing'er's hand and said, "Your grandfather has gone mad! He wants to kill Mr. Li Bai! You...you must go quickly and find a way to tell Mr. Li Bai to escape as fast as possible!"
"But...but I don't know where Mr. Li Bai is?"
"Go find him! Go find your father first, and go with him. We have to find him before your grandfather finds him," Xiao Wanmei said.
Tan Xing'er nodded, summoned her spirit pet, and flew out of the city lord's mansion.
Xiang Suyun glanced at her mother-in-law, and Xiao Wanmei also glanced at her. She stammered, "I...I...I'll go look for her too."
Then he ran out in a panic.
Xiao Wanmei gritted her teeth and transformed into a streak of light, chasing after Tan Yue.

a few days later.
Stars hang low over the vast plains, the moon surges in the great river's flow.
On a plain by the river, a man in white, wearing a silver mask, walked slowly, admiring the beautiful moonlight as he went. Suddenly, he looked behind him and sensed an aura approaching—a familiar face.
A moment later, a demonic beast appeared in the sky above him, upon which sat a pretty girl of about thirteen or fourteen. The girl had been searching for something, and upon seeing the white-clad man below, she happily flew down and exclaimed:
"Mr. Li Bai!"
The person who came was Tan Xing'er.
"Miss Tan?" Gu Yan was quite surprised to see Tan Xing'er. It seemed like this little girl was looking for her.
Tan Xing'er flew down from her spirit pet's back and anxiously said to Gu Yan, "Mr. Li Bai, my grandfather wants to kill you! You'd better run!"
These days, Tan Yue, Xiao Wanmei, Tan Shuo, Tan Xing'er, and Xiang Suyun are all looking for Gu Yan. Mu Qinghe and the others are also trying to find Gu Yan. Tan Xing'er is lucky; she ran into Gu Yan first.
"Your grandfather wants to kill me?" Gu Yan was completely bewildered upon hearing this. Wasn't Tan Xing'er's grandfather Tan Yue, the governor of Baima County and Marquis of Pingyuan? He wanted to kill her? Because of Tan Shuo?
"Grandpa suspects you of having an affair with Grandma, and he wants to kill you to vent his anger," Tan Xing'er said.
Gu Yan almost had a meltdown. What the hell?
"When did I ever flirt with your grandma? I've only met her twice!" Gu Yan said, feeling wronged. Both times they met in public, with people around. How could he have flirted with Xiao Wanmei?
"This, this, there's no time to explain now! You, you run away! My grandfather is a late-stage Spirit King! He's yelling that he'll tear you to pieces and grind your bones to dust! Run away, run as far away as you can!" Tan Xing'er said anxiously.
