I sell demon meat in the city

Chapter 155 Going to Settle Accounts
Bichuan Town, Meng Family.

At six o'clock in the evening, the setting sun casts its orange glow across the land, adding another splash of color to the already beautiful Bichuan.

At dinner time, the servants of the Meng family were setting the table with dishes. The Meng clan chief was talking to his eldest son about Meng Wenming. "Just because he wanted to punish Meng Quan and I didn't let him, he actually abandoned me and took his wife and children on a trip abroad. Tell me, is he really that serious?"

Meng Wenqi, the eldest son of the Meng clan chief, has activated the fire attribute, but unfortunately, he only has a little bit of it. After many years of cultivation, his progress has been minimal, and he can't even release a normal flame.

However, their family has a hidden secret, which no one knows except for the clan chief Meng and Meng Wenqi, including Meng Wenze.

“That’s just his temper, you know that, don’t take it to heart. But Dad, I know you’re only thinking of training Mengquan because of Uncle Xiang, but this kid is really hopeless. No matter how you train him, it’s useless. Why waste your time and energy?”

Meng Wenqi did not agree with the idea of ​​bringing the exceptionally talented Meng Qi back to the Meng family. Of course, now that two lives had been lost, this idea was naturally off the table, and at least it couldn't be mentioned again at this stage.

Their family didn't say anything more about it, acting as if nothing had happened.

However, like Meng Wenming, he also disliked Meng Quan.

So the matter of stealing the old objects from Yunmeng Village in the end seemed to become a test of Meng Quan's ability to handle things, while the two old people who died because of this became insignificant, and no one mentioned it again.

Only Meng Kaijie, who had witnessed Meng Qi's abilities, realized that this matter would not end well. So, after persuading his father, he decided to send the whole family on a trip abroad to avoid trouble for the time being.

"But your Uncle Xiang has been with me for many years."

Bang!
Before Chief Meng could finish speaking, a loud bang suddenly came from the direction of the gate. The sound was so loud that the entire Meng mansion seemed to tremble. Everyone in the mansion was startled by the loud noise and came out of their rooms to see what had happened.

"what happened?"

"Who is it? How dare you! Don't you know where you are?"

"Let's go over and have a look."

The Meng family mansion has existed for hundreds of years, covering a large area with more than a dozen courtyards and a total population of nearly a hundred people.

Of course, most of the time some people don't live in the old house. They only come back for a few days in the middle of each month according to the clan's rules, to show that their Meng family is large and united.

Coincidentally, today is June 17th, and the Meng family members who were away have just returned two days ago and haven't left yet.

So apart from Meng Kaijie's family, almost all the other members of the Meng family were present.

A group of people walked noisily and with great surprise toward the main gate of the courtyard. Clan Chief Meng and Meng Wenqi had arrived first and were standing at the archway connecting the second courtyard to the first courtyard, staring dumbfounded as their nearly three-meter-high, heavy vermilion iron gate was smashed to the ground.

Standing atop the fallen iron gate were seven people: two teenagers who looked to be only ten or so, a boy of sixteen or seventeen, and two young men in their early twenties. The remaining two older men, Chief Meng and Meng Wenqi, recognized Lin Qingquan. To his side and in front of him was a young woman who looked to be around thirty, very beautiful, and dressed in black, making the white mourning cloth on her arm stand out clearly.

Chief Meng looked at the white mourning cloth on the woman's arm, his face grim.

"Outrageous!" He scoffed. "Are you Meng Shulan?"

"Ha!" Meng Shulan scoffed, her face full of mockery. "It seems you know very well what you've done. I am Meng Shulan, so who are you? Meng Depeng, the head of the Meng family?"

"How dare you! How dare you mention the clan chief's name!"

Meng Xiang, the steward of the Meng family, shouted angrily. At the same time, he raised his right hand to order his men to arrest Meng Shulan and the others. Suddenly, his vision blurred, and then his body flew up. He crashed into the courtyard wall behind him with a thud, and then landed on the bluestone floor in the courtyard with a thud.

The elderly butler, over sixty years old, could not withstand such a blow. He immediately coughed up a mouthful of blood, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted.

Meng Qi glanced at her disdainfully, "So easily defeated, the Meng family is utterly useless. Now, can someone tell me whether Meng Depeng's name can be mentioned at all?"

There was silence.

She moved so fast that the Meng family members didn't have time to react before she knocked them unconscious. At this moment, she was standing no more than five meters away from Meng Depeng, the head of the Meng family.

Meng Wenqi couldn't help but step forward to block Meng Depeng. He was about to say something when Meng Shulan spoke up again, "Whether or not it can be mentioned is irrelevant, but today, to ensure you all die knowing the truth, I can clearly tell you, the Meng family, that Meng Chi's son, Meng Qi'an, is indeed my great-grandfather. Therefore, a life for a life, a debt for a debt. Over a hundred years ago, you killed my great-aunt, and today you killed my uncle and aunt. This debt cannot be repaid even with the entire Meng family!"

Meng Shulan used her inner energy in her voice, so the entire Meng family compound, and even the surrounding neighbors, heard her words clearly.

Everyone was shocked and incredulous, but no expression could fully convey the dramatic upheaval that was about to unfold at the Meng residence.

All the trees in the vast, well-landscaped mansion sprang up from the ground, their branches flailing wildly, some striking the crowd, others the houses, creating a constant barrage of thuds, cries of pain, and pleas for help.

Some people even yelled at Meng Shulan and the others, "Go find whoever killed the person, why are you hitting us?"

"That's right, murderers pay with their lives. What you did is illegal, you know?"

Meng Shulan looked at the speaker with a deep gaze, "So you know that murder is illegal? Meng Depeng, what about you? Did you know?"

Upon hearing the clan chief's name mentioned, the speaker immediately fell silent, realizing that the clan chief was the one who had committed the murder.

As expected of the clan leader, he remained calm and composed even in this critical situation. Because he was surrounded by guards, all the leaves and branches that were attacking him were knocked to the ground.

In addition, Meng Depeng, like Meng Wenze, is of the metal element. His three ultra-thin and sharp knives rotate and cut around him, blocking the leaves that the guards could not catch or missed.

That's why he appears so composed and unperturbed.

Are you really not worried?
No, when he saw Meng Qi jump onto the roof and two green leaves appear in her eyes, he was already panicking deep down, but he didn't show it on his face.

So this is the same talent as the Meng family ancestor—the talent that saved a city single-handedly!
But reality is so ironic: when the descendants of the Meng family once again displayed this talent, it was actually to deal with their own people!
