Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes-Chapter 294 - 293: How Could He Dare to Assassinate Ye’Er

Chapter 294: Chapter 293: How Could He Dare to Assassinate Ye’Er

In the courtyard, Shen Ye recounted to Madam Shen and Shen Lingsheng the events of the day he was ambushed.

During his narration, the sword technique used by Shen Han was replaced with a hidden weapon by Shen Ye.

The story then turned into Shen Han using a strange hidden weapon to barely break Shen Ye’s defensive move.

This left Shen Ye with some minor injuries.

This version of the story indeed made Shen Ye’s image sound much more impressive.

It also prevented anyone from thinking that someone in the Fifth Grade Half-Step Realm being injured by a First Snow Realm would be disgraceful.

Shen Ye was quite clever, blending seven parts truth with three parts fiction.

Every detail was explained thoroughly.

Listening to it, there was not a single hint of a problem.

After the story was told, Madam Shen’s face turned cold, and her wrinkled face even showed a hint of ferocity.

"This rebellious child is simply trying to overturn the heavens!

Daring to attack Ye’Er, daring to attack his elder brother, utterly lawless!"

Madam Shen hadn’t been this angry in years.

"Old Third, Shen Han is your son. Tell us, for committing such a heinous mistake, how should he be punished?"

Hearing this, Shen Lingsheng’s face was equally cold and stern.

"If this matter is true, for attacking his elder brother, such a rebellious son should naturally be beaten to death with sticks."

Upon hearing this, Madam Shen snorted coldly.

"What do you mean, if this matter is true?

Ye’Er just spoke so earnestly, could it be false?

This rebellious Shen Han probably thinks that after Ye’Er’s fall, the Shen Family’s inheritance will fall into his hands.

But I am here to tell him, it is absolutely impossible, he will never inherit the Shen Family!"

Seeing Madam Shen’s angry expression, Shen Lingsheng felt even more embarrassed.

"Mother...

When Father came, he clearly explained everything to us.

If we do not win over Shen Han, this Pill..."

Before Shen Lingsheng could finish, Madam Shen waved her aged hand dismissively.

"Give me the Sound Transmission Magical Artifact, I will personally explain to the Master!"

As she spoke, she took the Sound Transmission Magical Artifact and communicated with Shen Qingshan right in front of a few people.

After a moment, Shen Qingshan’s voice was heard.

Before Shen Qingshan could speak, Madam Shen recounted Shen Ye’s assassination attempt to him.

Upon learning this, Shen Qingshan was equally enraged.

"Who dared to assassinate Ye’Er? Do they really think there is no one in the Shen Family?

Have you seen Ye’Er, are his injuries serious?"

Shen Qingshan’s voice was fierce; it was clear he was worried about Shen Ye.

Upon hearing this, Madam Shen laughed coldly.

"Who else would try to assassinate Ye’Er?

Who else but that rebellious child, whom you’ve been longing to reconcile with?"

"Rebellious child? Are you saying Shen Han?

Are you saying Shen Han was the one who attempted to assassinate Ye’Er?"

At the other end of the Sound Transmission Magical Artifact, Patriarch Shen, Shen Qingshan, was momentarily stunned and couldn’t respond.

"Isn’t Shen Han only at the Fifth Grade First Snow Realm?

How could he dare to attempt to assassinate Ye’Er..."

Hearing Shen Qingshan’s words, Madam Shen seemed even more furious.

Today, she boldly spoke up to Shen Qingshan.

"Master has traversed the battlefield for many years, a veteran of numerous battles.

Does the Master truly believe that the tides of battle are solely about the strength of the soldiers?

That rebellious Shen Han, like a thief, used a hidden weapon to assassinate Ye’Er.

If Ye’Er weren’t vigilant and exceptionally skilled,

Today he might have been gravely injured!"

Madam Shen grew more agitated as she spoke, her mouth constantly reciting curses and reprimanding Shen Han.

Beside her, listening to Madam Shen’s tirade, Shen Lingsheng occasionally showed an awkward expression.

"Mother...

Curse him if you will; although I am Shen Han’s birth father, I have never been partial to him.

Why are you cursing me in your words..."

"If not you, then who?

If it weren’t for your rebellious offspring, would our Shen Family be facing such troubles?

It is a father’s responsibility to teach an unfilial child, so you ought to discipline Shen Han properly.

If he still refuses to listen, then beat him to death directly!"

Today, Madam Shen seemed particularly temperamental, cursing anyone she could find.

At the other end of the Sound Transmission Magical Artifact, Patriarch Shen Qingshan, after hearing all this, remained silent for a long time.

Shen Han actually attempting to assassinate Shen Ye was something he truly did not expect.

Shen Ye’s master, Luo Zuchen, was a well-known madman in the Capital City.

Acting recklessly and with cruel intent.

Because of his existence, no one dared to provoke Shen Ye over the years.

Shen Han making a move on Shen Ye...

How could he be so bold...

Shaking his head to rid himself of these thoughts, Shen Qingshan’s mind was still most concerned about the army’s Pill issue.

"Lingsheng, have you met with Shen Han?"

The sound resonated through the Sound Transmission Magical Artifact.

Shen Lingsheng hurriedly stepped forward and replied: "Upon hearing of Ye’Er’s injury, Mother and I came immediately to visit, we have not gone to Tianyi Academy."

On the other end, Shen Qingshan remained silent again for a moment before speaking.

"It would be best if you went anyway...

The assassination might just be a misunderstanding, let’s talk things over first..."

Hearing this, Luo Zuchen on the side sneered coldly.

Shen Ye’s expression also turned several degrees colder, not expecting to be overlooked one day.

Shen Lingsheng did not reply; he merely looked up at Madam Shen.

Once never daring to defy Shen Qingshan, Madam Shen seemed to have grown bold today.

"If you wish to talk to Shen Han, Master, feel free to come yourself.

Neither Lingsheng nor I can go."

Upon these words, Shen Qingshan’s tone suddenly turned much colder from the other end of the Sound Transmission Magical Artifact:

"What?

Does it seem that my words, as the Patriarch, can no longer keep you in check?"

In the past, upon hearing such words from Shen Qingshan, Madam Shen would unconsciously kneel.

But today, she became much bolder.

"Rebellious Shen Han already dares to act against the eldest grandchild of the family, even intending to cause Ye’Er’s death.

For such a descendant, if you, Master, still wish to win him over and reconcile,

he might act even more recklessly.

Today, he only attacked Ye’Er.

Tomorrow, it might be us elders that he attacks!"

Madam Shen’s words bore some truth, rendering Shen Qingshan silent.

For a moment, Shen Qingshan said nothing, prompting Madam Shen to pause for a moment before speaking again.

"Master, if you promise Shen Han that he can inherit the Shen Family title in the future, taking over the Shen Family’s business, it’s like pushing Ye’Er into the fire.

Ye’Er, as the contender against Shen Han for the title and the family business, will surely continue to receive harsh treatment from Shen Han.

This is blatantly bullying Ye’Er!"

These words left Shen Qingshan seemingly unable to find an appropriate response.

After a long time, he finally said: "Do as you please.

How the Shen Family will fare in the future and how to survive this Pill crisis is something you must figure out yourselves.

I am tired of dealing with it."
