Chapter 1359: Storms over the Huang Family

The junior brother's background is indeed rather tragic: his mother is unaffectionate, his father is unloving, and the family members seem not to cherish him either, yet the junior brother has managed to reach today, and the people he can rely on are only a handful.

Among them are the two of them; the two are very clear that, compared with those of the Huang Family, the junior brother's heart would be more willing to trust the two of them, at least the two of them are sincerely acting for his benefit, wholly devoted to considering the junior brother's interests.

As for the others, who knows?

Especially after learning about Huang Yan's background, Qi Haoyang feels the junior brother is even more tragic; there are many tragic people in the world, and the junior brother's survival to today also has its own reasons, and within the Huang Family there are people who protect him.

As for the junior brother's parents, the junior brother's relatives are comparable to jackals; previously they thought the junior brother's family was quite good, the junior brother became Family Head at a young age, which was truly impressive, but now it seems they overthought it.

"Indeed, you and I followed the junior brother to the Huang Family, perhaps because father asked us to help the junior brother, to help the junior brother clear away obstacles."

Chen Qinglian said softly, the clearing is not only of external obstacles, but also those of the Huang Family; although in those years Huang Yan cleared many, some still remain, after all those people are his relatives, how could he truly strike down with killing hands.

Earlier they had grasped Qinglong Daoren's meaning, but only at this moment do they truly understand.

"Father's scheming is still so profound; at this moment, I finally understand," Chen Qinglian said bitterly, shaking her head, her eyes filled with sympathy and pity.

"Indeed, father truly lives up to being a father," Qi Haoyang closed his eyes, uttered a commendation; even if it were a clone, it is not something they can speculate about.

This thought, this affection, truly treats Huang Yan as their own disciple, not using him; or rather, they all have this notion: to establish a foothold in Tianwai, they must exploit the Huang Family, exploiting the junior brother's identity.

However, now it seems they help each other, which is better; Chen Qinglian and Qi Haoyang need not worry much, when the time comes to act, they will naturally set off immediately, without hesitation.

No wonder the junior brother brings the two of them here, rather than those of the Huang Family; there is also a hint of suspicion in this.

Half an hour later, Huang Yan returned to their side, apologetically smiling: "Senior brother, I have made you look foolish."

Chen Qinglian immediately said: "Junior brother Huang Yan, don't overthink, the senior brother is by your side, the senior brother will help you clear all obstacles; as long as you speak, the senior brother's sword will kill for you."

Raising the blade and pointing forward, Chen Qinglian, without a word, drew the sword directly.

Qi Haoyang, comparatively steady, said: "Junior brother, don't listen to your senior brother Chen Qinglian's nonsense; indiscriminate killing cannot solve the problem. The urgent priority is that you, junior brother, must take control of the Huang Family, rather than, as before, handing the Huang Family over to others to handle."

"Seize all authority of the Huang Family, making the Huang Family be led by you; this point must be achieved."

Huang Yan nodded: "Senior brother Haoyang, I understand. The Huang Family has been gradually returning to my control; soon I can fully control it. This time, I can use the Bai Family to clean out a group of people. Previously, I, the junior brother, was soft-hearted, too merciful toward them, thinking they were still my family; now I see I was wrong."

"Perhaps in their hearts, I am not their family; that is fine, I can then act freely to clean out these people."

"Junior brother, I have already taken control of a group of people, waiting for some years, until they fully mature and replace the current ones; within the Huang Family, only my voice remains."

"During this period, we need the two senior brothers to hold the front line."

Qi Haoyang and Chen Qinglian waved their hands: "No problem."

They are now like locusts on the same boat, sharing honor together and sharing loss together.

"Then junior brother thanks the two senior brothers here," Huang Yan clasped his hands and bowed, expressing gratitude.

Chen Qinglian and Qi Haoyang hurriedly helped Huang Yan up, not letting him bow.

"We are all senior and junior brothers, naturally a family; when the junior brother is in trouble, as senior brothers we cannot stand by and watch death without rescuing."

"Junior brother, rest assured, the senior brother will not let you suffer grievance; if we truly cannot win, we can still go ask father for help."

"At worst, we just return to the Mangshan Mountain Range."

Huang Yan smiled: "Yes, senior brother."

They all have a way out, and moreover, they will not fail.

The Huang Family is now led by Huang Yan; the remaining people dare not oppose.

Huang Yan's patience with them has reached its limit; this time Huang Longji's matter has revealed much—without anyone's help, how could Huang Longji emerge easily? How could Guixin Elder enter the Huang Family ancestral hall?

All of this has problems; Huang Yan did not investigate, but he knows it clearly.

Some people still wish to shake his position; this account, Huang Yan needs to settle slowly.

Another room of the Huang Family.

Huang Wufeng and Huang Wuheng sit together, with Huang Wuji above them; the three brothers gather together, a rare opportunity.

Huang Wuji looked at his two younger brothers, his mood heavy, and asked: "Has Yan'er already known?"

Huang Wufeng rose and said: "Elder brother, Yan'er already knows; likely he has begun to doubt the Huang Family, his mother's matters—we have concealed for so long, he will eventually know. This time, what should we do?"

"Yan'er probably won't trust us; the appearance of Guixin Elder has shattered everything, that damned Guixin Elder, the Bai Family of Gai Xin."

"Elder brother, Yan'er's thoughts may never return to our side again."

After saying this, Huang Wufeng sighed; some things, once they happen, cannot be undone.

Huang Yan's heart, perhaps...

Huang Wuheng followed: "Elder brother, second brother, I have long said we shouldn't hide this from Yan'er; he will eventually know everything, better to tell him early. Look, now he already knows; you can't hide fire with paper."

"If we had told Yan'er back then, today's events wouldn't have occurred; Longji's affair was done dishonestly, how could it be done that way."

Huang Wuji's face turned embarrassed; he pressed his hand: "The matter has already happened; continuing to blame serves no purpose. Third brother, think about how to win back Yan'er's heart?"

Huang Wuheng fell silent.

Huang Wufeng also fell silent.

If the roles were reversed, they could not have their hearts toward them.

After a long while, Huang Wuji sighed.

"Alas."

"Could this matter truly be irretrievable?"

In an instant, Huang Wuji turned exceedingly old.

His son died, died within the Huang Family, after battling his own grandson, he died.

Within this, there is the Bai Family's scheming; regarding this, he is angry and resentful, but he cannot leave the sect, at least for now he still cannot meet Yan'er; he does not know how to face it, nor what to say, or rather, he fears Huang Yan will ask him those matters, and he does not know how to answer.
