"Miss!" Ao Song fell to the ground, Ming Yue cried out and rushed over to help her.

Ao Song gritted her teeth and stood up, looking at Elder Su, she said: "Jiuli is really something, when they can't win they find help, bullying a little girl like me as a group, aren't they ashamed!"

"So young yet so ruthless, you must be taught a lesson." Elder Su said coldly.

Bai Ruozhu knew Ao Song was not Elder Su's match, and hurried forward to say: "Elder Su, please calm down. Ao Song is my friend, she has helped me a lot in the Western Regions, there must be some misunderstanding here."

"Sister Bai, you don't have to worry, even if he is more formidable, it's hard to kill me." Ao Song showed an apologetic look to Bai Ruozhu, "I've just given you trouble."

"This little demon woman is the most deceitful, Bai Ruozhu, you are a Jiuli, how can you be friends with her?" The woman said in an aggressive tone, with a hint of questioning Bai Ruozhu.

Bai Ruozhu felt annoyed upon hearing this, what did Zu Mei have to do with her making friends? She hadn't said she was a Jiuli person.

Moreover, it's really petty for Zu Mei as an elder to argue with a young girl, even if Ao Song's father was indeed unfaithful to Zu Mei, it was none of Ao Song's concern as a junior.

"Predecessor Zu, that's too much. I just said Ao Song helped me a lot in the Western Regions, I really don't think it's wrong for me to make friends with her." Bai Ruozhu said with a calm face.

"Do you know whose daughter she is? A low-life's born low-life, not afraid of losing your identity." Zu Mei had lost her former composure, pointed at Ao Song and shouted abuse.

"Old hag, your mouth is filthy and smelly, always picking on me, aren't you ashamed of your age?" Ao Song said disdainfully.

At this time, a middle-aged man who was with Elder Su also chased up, looking at Zu Mei in surprise, and asked, "She is Zhang Hanyu's daughter?"

Zu Mei nodded, the hostility in her eyes increased.

"Zu Mei, it's been so long, I thought you had forgotten." Kang De said somewhat disappointedly.

"Kang De, what are you thinking? The last time I saw this little demon girl, she looked familiar, so I asked a few questions, she insulted me, and even schemed against me, of course, I couldn't stand it and wanted to teach her a lesson." Zu Mei hastily explained.

Ao Song snorted twice, "You started by cursing my mother, my chastisement was already lenient."

"So what if I cursed her? Obviously, she seduced another's husband, behaved disgracefully yet wants to maintain a facade, not allowing anyone to insult her?" Zu Mei shouted again.

Elder Su figured out what was going on, his expression somewhat unpleasant, he naturally knew that Zu Mei's ex-husband Zhang Hanyu went out to do business, and ended up bringing back a foreign woman, Zu Mei and that woman fought fiercely, later Zhang Hanyu in anger left Jiuli, and went to the Zhong Family in the Western Regions.

But Zu Mei is creating a scene with a junior, it really doesn't look good, Elder Su tried to intervene, as it would really be bullying the weak if it got out.

"You're the one behaving disgracefully, thinking I don't know about past events? My father was poisoned by the Quanrong Clan while out on business, losing martial arts and memory, and my mother saved him with good intentions, teaching him martial skills step by step, they developed feelings over time, and it was natural to marry and have children. Later, my father remembered the past and felt sorry for you, he brought my pregnant mother back to Jiuli, and both knelt and apologized to you. What did you do? You even tried to harm my unborn self, you are the malicious one, my father left Jiuli in anger, you forced him to not return home!"

Ao Song spoke with great anger, but quickly showed a look of loss, and her voice grew quieter, "My father often looked into the distance in a daze, appearing particularly lonely, I know he was yearning for his homeland, and this was all caused by you!"

"Nonsense! I refused to forgive them, nor would I accept a little bastard like you, but I wouldn't stoop to harm a pregnant woman, it was your mother who put on a show, go ask your mother properly when you return!" Yinniang said as her eyes turned red, seemingly speaking about a painful topic.

Kang De chimed in beside, "Although Zu Mei's personality is somewhat fierce, she definitely is not that kind of person, maybe your mother is the one with schemes."

"Hmph, you're her current man, of course you speak up for her, my mother and father truly love each other, wouldn't engage in such actions, and in the Zhong Family, our bloodline can only give birth to one child, would my mother risk her only child?" Ao Song's disdain was evident, "Dare to act but not admit, you might not personally have done it, but you instigated your mother's arrangements, can truly claim it was not your doing."

"My mother has already passed away, and you still slander her, truly shameless!" Zu Mei was furious and attempted to attack, Bai Ruozhu rushed to intervene between the two.

"Enough!" She shouted, using some inner strength, causing their hearts to tense momentarily, and they both quieted down.

She looked at Zu Mei, then Ao Song, sighed, "I don't care about your grievances, but this is my home, so you must listen to me."

She turned to glare at Zu Mei, "Your husband found another woman, and indeed you were wronged, but the matter has been over for more than ten years, seeing Ao Song's age, she's at least sixteen years old, right? And you've remarried, have a new husband, why cling to old grudges? Even if you can't swallow this resentment, the ones to confront should be Ao Song's parents, not this innocent junior."

Then she looked at Ao Song, "Both sides hold their own stories about the past, but she is the one who was most hurt, even for your parents' good karma, you shouldn't seek her life."

Her comments were evenly distributed, and deemed fair.

Ao Song pouted, her eyes turning red with grievance, "I never intended to really kill her, you see my dagger is just a magical instrument, the blade isn't sharp, could I kill her? It's merely to scare her, so she ceases to curse my mother each time, regardless of past events, I cannot stand idle while my mother is insulted."

She finished speaking and tossed the dagger to Bai Ruozhu, Bai Ruozhu examined it closely, indeed it wasn't sharpened, the dagger bore many runes, almost all transparent, only by rotating the dagger could the glyphs be faintly seen. Bai Ruozhu recognized one of the symbols, she had seen it in the Astrology Tower books, but at the time merely skimmed through, not recalling the symbol's function.

She handed the dagger to Elder Su, "Elder Su, please take a look, Ao Song isn't lying."

Elder Su didn't need to look much, while Bai Ruozhu was observing, he had already narrowed his eyes and clearly seen, earlier he rushed to save people, didn't examine the dagger closely, now only feeling embarrassed.

He didn't take the dagger Bai Ruozhu was handing over, swung his sleeves and said: "Nonsense, I won't mind your personal affairs anymore!"

He staggered away, not even bothering to retrieve the shoe he had thrown out.
