Inoue Sakura followed the sound to the second floor of the attic, where she found a kind-faced old man sitting in the center, looking at her with a doting gaze, "The resemblance is uncanny! You are the spitting image of your mother! But in the blink of an eye, twenty years have passed... Sigh, to think that those beasts, just for the position of the Clan Leader, actually committed such heinous acts!"

Upon hearing the Great Elder's words, Inoue Sakura's eyes reddened, as she seemed to see the fire that had devoured her parents.

"Come over here, child, and sit beside me," the Great Elder said softly.

Inoue Sakura did as she was told, and only when she got close did she realize, to her surprise, that the Great Elder's legs were missing. Could it be that the Great Elder had no legs?

Inoue Sakura was somewhat shocked; Auntie Haruko had never mentioned this to her!

"Did you notice that this old man is disabled?" The surprise in Inoue Sakura's eyes did not escape the Great Elder's notice, and he spoke indifferently, "These legs of mine have been useless for over twenty years now. Otherwise, I would never have allowed your mother to go to Huaxia back then!"

After a brief pause, the Great Elder chuckled bitterly, "But now, there's no use talking about these things. The only purpose of bringing you back from Huaxia is to restore the Inoue Family's Vital Energy and quickly quell all this unrest."

A glint of light flashed in Inoue Sakura's eyes, then she gently shook her head, "Great Elder, I understand what you mean, but... I don't know if I can carry this burden!"

"You don't have to worry about that!" the Great Elder said earnestly, "Although I knew what Inoue You and Inoue Ki, those two beasts, did, I could not take action to punish them due to the ancestral laws. But now it's different; you are the rightful heir to the Clan Leader. This gives me a legitimate reason to eliminate the parasites within the family and restore the Inoue Family to the peak of the three major families!"

The Great Elder stared at Inoue Sakura, "You actually don't need to do anything. Just cooperate with my actions!"

On the surface, Inoue Sakura appeared to be relieved, but inside, her guard was raised!

She was astonished to find that all of this had been anticipated by Ling Feng. Had the Great Elder brought her back just to use her as a puppet, a tool to fulfill his own purposes?

"Great Elder, may I make a request?" Inoue Sakura raised her head and asked earnestly.

The Great Elder looked at her somewhat surprised, "A request? What is it that you want?"

"I want the heads of Inoue You and Inoue Ki!" Inoue Sakura's eyes revealed a glint of hatred, "It was they who sent Death Warriors to kill my father and mother. I won't rest until they're dead; if you help me kill them, I am willing to do anything!"

The Great Elder burst into hearty laughter, "The family vermin deserve to be exterminated! Rest assured, I will not let them go!"

With that, the Great Elder patted Inoue Sakura's shoulder.

"By the way, you're now eighteen, aren't you?" the Great Elder asked.

"I just celebrated my eighteenth birthday," Inoue Sakura replied.

The Great Elder nodded, "Eighteen, just the right age. Have you ever had a boyfriend?"

Inoue Sakura blushed, "Why are you asking this, Great Elder?"

The Great Elder responded, "Now, you're the only one left with the Clan Leader's bloodline, and the future succession of the Clan Leader falls on your shoulders. Your most important task is to quickly conceive a child with the Clan Leader's bloodline so that the stability and longevity of the Inoue Family are ensured!"

Inoue Sakura hesitated, "This matter can't be rushed, can it? Besides... I don't have a boyfriend now..."

For some reason, as the Great Elder mentioned these things, Inoue Sakura felt an ominous premonition stirring in her heart.

"How am I not in a hurry? If I don't hurry, I'll run out of time!" The Great Elder said with a smile, "You have never had a boyfriend, which means you are still a virgin, that's very good, very good! Since that's the case, then I shall take on the burdensome task of helping you out!"

While speaking, the Great Elder reached out and grabbed Inoue Sakura's clothes.

"Ah!" Inoue Sakura screamed in terror, hastily dodging the Great Elder, and looked at him with eyes filled with horror, "What... what do you want to do?"

"What do I want to do? Of course, I want to sleep with you!" The Great Elder's smile now resembled the Devil's, "If it weren't for the Clan Leader's bloodline in you, would I have bothered to bring you over all the way from Fusang?"

Inoue Sakura's eyes revealed an expression of terror, and she frantically tried to open the window, but it was as if the window had been sealed shut, completely unmovable.

Then she tried to open the door, but it too wouldn't budge. Desperation began to rise in Inoue Sakura's heart.

"What exactly do you want to do!" Inoue Sakura turned around and said fiercely.

The Great Elder spoke indifferently, "I simply want to use your body to bear me a son, then let my son inherit the Clan Leader's position of the Inoue Family. But rest assured, as long as you cooperate with me, I will help you kill Inoue You and Inoue Ki! I guarantee it!"

Shaking, Inoue Sakura stared at the Great Elder, looked around, and then grasped a chair beside her, "Don't force me, you are no match for me!"

"Hehe, is that so?" With a flick of the Great Elder's finger, Inoue Sakura's hand went numb, and the chair clattered to the ground.

"Come here!" The Great Elder waved his hand, and Inoue Sakura felt as if a pair of large hands were pushing her back, moving her forward.

She stumbled and fell beside the Great Elder.

"What a beautiful face!" The Great Elder said while looking at Inoue Sakura, "Such a young and vibrant body, truly the most delicious thing in the world! Don't worry, I will let you know what it means to be a real woman, I'll let you experience the true joy of a woman!"

"You are a Devil!" Inoue Sakura struggled desperately, "You are not human, you are a Devil!"

With a flick of the Great Elder's finger, Inoue Sakura felt a chill at her chest, her clothes had been dissolved off, revealing two large white rabbits, tantalizingly semi-visible.

A look of urgency flashed in the Great Elder's eyes, Inoue Sakura's appearance was even more delicate and beautiful than her mother's, which greatly satisfied him.

"Somebody save me!" A tear rolled down from the corner of Inoue Sakura's eye, her heart overflowing with despair.

She had thought that even if she became a Puppet, it would be worth it as long as she could avenge her parents! But she had not expected that the Great Elder, upon their first meeting, would insult her in such a manner, his purpose being to have his offspring become the Clan Leader.

"Do I really have to succumb to this old man? I don't want to, I will not submit!" In Inoue Sakura's eyes flashed a cold intensity, and she bit down hard on her tongue.

But immediately after, her mouth went numb, almost completely losing its strength.

"Thinking of biting your tongue and commit suicide? Don't you want to avenge your parents anymore?" said the Great Elder indifferently.

Inoue Sakura's body trembled, yes, could she really give up on avenging her parents?

"Tsk tsk, you beast, it suits you, being the perverted person from Fusang that you are!" Just then, a mocking voice came through.
