29 The Horrors Committed by the Bao Family FINAL PART

Bai Ling shoved the bleeding corpse to the side.

"Look! I want all of you to look at this scene and never forget." As if her voice held command over their will, they turned wide-eyed to Bai Ling.

"You are all responsible for the crimes committed by this family. This weak, pathetic family managed to wreck so many lives while submitting yourself to their money and power. Let this be a lesson, when in the face of injustice, never kneel. When in the face of cruelty never buckle. When in the face of corrupted beings," Bai Ling pointed at the concubine, "purge them with your spirit and blade. That is the way of the Xia Manor!"

These words stirred their hearts. They felt guilt, regret and renewed purpose. Miss Xia was right; they didn't dare to rise against the Bao Family. After all, they fed and clothed them. In exchange for their pride, dignity and conscience, they accepted the scraps given to them. Some going as far as selling their own kids to the harem.

The ones who did such atrocious deeds didn't dare to lift their heads high. Little did they know, the moment they gathered and fell into the array, Xiao Bao harvested their memories.

Bai Ling wanted to purge every crooked part of the manor. Every servant who sold their child, every soldier who joined the masters in their lewd pleasures, every single one of them.

But Bai Ling wanted to start with the head first.

"Next!" The next concubines came forward. Like the previous one, they all begged before they died. Bai Ling was creative with the ways she executed them. In fact, her methods were so cruel; it scarred the Xia manor's people for years to come.

Whenever they saw their mistress in the future, they shuddered thinking of how such a seemingly innocent face could be so vicious.

When the last concubine died, Bai Ling was soaked in the blood of the tainted. She neither shied from it nor seemed disgusted. Instead, the blood added to her demon-like charm.

"Now that I am taking over, I must make one thing clear. Nothing you do, say or think will ever escape my grasp. What I want to know I will know."

'Xiao Bao, bring the rest of the guilty forward.'

The others guilty of selling their young children, who participated in using the young children and the ones who went out to fetch young children all came forward.

They couldn't control their steps, but the others didn't know this since the ones coming forward couldn't speak. Seeing so many come forward made a fire light up in Bai Ling. To her, the ones aiding the abuse were on the same level or worse than the abuser.

"As I said, I know your thoughts, actions and words." Unbeknownst to Bai Ling, her eyes were glowing a molten gold colour. This made her words more terrifying.

Xiao Bao sat up from where he watched the show as he looks to where Bai Ling stoop. He used his Pheonix eyes to see inside of her. What he saw shocked him. A second flame beside the form of her chi was forming in Bai Ling.

So soon? A figure of a man flashed in his mind. Could his appearance be the reason why it appeared earlier than anticipated?

Xiao Bao calmed his mind down. The appearance of the second flame might not mean it is time yet. Thinking like this, the worried Xiao Bao relaxed completely.

Besides, she didn't remember anything.

Bai Ling sliced to the right, and her flame followed, toppling the heads of all those who stepped forward. It didn't matter if it was someone old, young or in between since they all played a part, Bai Ling got rid of them.

"Don't be alarmed by this. They all had a part to play in the abuse."

It was at this moment that they all understood how serious their new master was. Before they even really thought about it, they revered Bai Ling in their hearts and minds. They have never seen such decisive actions from their previous masters before.

"Since the trash has been removed, I declare those left as the primary force of Xia manor. " Bai Ling took out the pouch that contained her pills.

"Who leads the army?" Everyone looked around, and some glanced at Du Lin. Du Lin himself was scared of what Bai Ling wanted from him. He fought the feelings of fear and stood up.

His brave front did not reveal the anxiousness he felt. "I am Du Lin, the general of this army."

Bai Ling nodded, approving his aura and presence. Without delay, she threw the pouch towards him. Du Lin caught the bag and then looked at Bai Ling.

"Open it." Du Lin obeyed her command. "There are only ten for now. Give it to those who are close to breaking through."

Bai Ling was going to sell the pills for money, but she didn't need to go through the hassle now. She already conquered Bao Manor and all of its resources, what else did she need?

When the pouch opened and the scent of the pills scattered, Du Lin sucked in a sharp breath. These pills were the Chi Gathering pills. For practitioners like him, it was a miracle to be able to find one much less ten.

His hands trembled as he closed the pouch.

Maybe following Miss Xia won't be a bad deal. In their first meeting, he got his hands on priceless pills like these. Du Lin dropped to his feet and bowed to Bai Ling as if she were a goddess.

The rest of the army smelled the pills and got excited themselves. Seeing their commander kowtow to Bai Ling, they followed. They did not feel embarrassed since she did indeed give them a big gift. They had the chance to advance their cultivation now!

Bai Ling didn't care for the kowtowing and continued. "I was only able to craft ten since resources were tight. I will be crafting more, but only the ones who train hard and are willing will get a pill. I will reach out to you sometime in the future. Remember, I'm watching you."

Bai Ling fled the manor as mysteriously as she came. While leaping in the sky, Xiao Bao gave her a scornful glance.

'Xiao Bao, wasn't I so cool just now?' There it is, Xiao Bao thought to himself. He didn't know what to do with her.

[Cool? Hmph!]

The two of them travelled while joking until they returned to the Pavillion, unaware that someone watched them the whole time.

"My Lord, the girl ahead is the one who finished the Bao Family."

"I know. I saw it all." He smiled as he watched Bai Ling disappear in the distance. The aura he felt coming from here resonated with his very soul. He had to find a way to get closer to her to know why.
