Yu Ao was now panicking, his heart pounding. He never imagined An Ye would be so insane.
She was simply a lunatic.
An Ye's gaze was ferocious, "You say you didn't, so you didn't?"
"You old bastard..."
An Ye rushed to Yu Ao's side, suppressed him with her inner energy, grabbed his shoulders, and violently slammed him to the ground.
Once.
Twice.
Thrice...
As if he were a sack.
She was utterly frenzied.
Yu Ao tried to resist multiple times, but his body wouldn't obey, and he could only endure.
Screaming.
"Ahhh..."
"Qingqing, I am your second grandfather, you can't do this!"
"Stop it quickly!"
"As long as you stop, grandfather will definitely cede the Yu family head position to you!"
Yu Ao begged for mercy.
His arrogance from before was gone.
What remained was endless humiliation.
The other members of the Yu family were stunned by the sight, their hearts in their throats.
One by one, they gasped.
Yu Canghai couldn't bear to watch and pleaded, "Niece, we were wrong, please, stop!"
"I..."
"Shut up!" An Ye roared, she had no mood to listen to such insincere pleas.
Yu Canghai fell silent, as if something had gotten stuck in his throat.
His face was extremely grim.
As for the others, they all lowered their heads, none daring to provoke An Ye in her current state.
Clang, clang...
Crackling!
Smashing...
In no time, all of Yu Ao's bones were broken.
He spat blood, his face ashen.
If it weren't for the inner energy supporting him, he would have died long ago.
"Qingqing, second grandfather was wrong, please let me go!"
"I..."
An Ye didn't listen at all, striking ruthlessly and crippling Yu Ao.
Yu Ao cried out, never imagining that after a lifetime of being a formidable figure, he would be crippled by someone of the next generation.
"Yu Muqing, you... you beast!"
An Ye's expression was blank, "All of this is your own doing!"
"Yu Canghai, get yourself together, and bring all of the Yu family to the great back mountain to kneel!"
"If anyone dares to escape, I will personally kill all hundred-plus members of the Yu family!"
Yu Canghai had no choice but to nod reluctantly.
"We... we will go and kneel now!"
"Please show some mercy!"
"Less nonsense!"
An Ye threw down these words and dragged Yu Ao into the manor villa.
Seeing this, the family members also knelt on the ground, not daring to look up at An Ye.
They now felt that An Ye was utterly unfamiliar, a completely different person from Yu Muqing of those years.
An Ye said to Yu Ao, "Where is the secret vault?"
"Wh-what secret vault!" Yu Ao pretended not to understand.
"Playing coy, are we!" An Ye raised her hand and sent a shockwave to send Yu Ao's own granddaughter flying.
Seeing this, Yu Ao trembled and said, "I... I'll tell you... the secret vault is behind the study!"
An Ye went to the study and, following Yu Ao's instructions, shattered a wall with a palm strike.
The next moment, a secret vault appeared... This vault was built to be quite large and, at first glance, very luxurious.
On both sides were shelves made of golden sandalwood, displaying all sorts of rare treasures and valuable ancient herbs.
It was like a medium-sized warehouse.
Chen Fan's eyes lit up at the sight; this was likely the foundation of a noble family. Any single treasure taken out would be worth a fortune, something unattainable for many small and medium-sized families.
An Ye said to Chen Fan, "There should be what you need here!"
"I didn't go back on my word, did I!"
Her gaze towards Chen Fan softened, becoming much warmer...
