Martial Arts: The Secret Villain Starting from Huashan

The elderly servant's voice was a little low and carried a certain severity. However, beneath this severity, there was an irrepressible sense of pride and pride.

There was a gleam in his eyes, as if he was telling about the glorious past, because he knew very well that it was the supreme honor and glory for him and the entire family to have the opportunity to serve such a great woman like Qiu Ganchi who was not only extremely intelligent but also had unparalleled martial arts skills.

When the two young men first heard this, there was an expression of disbelief and surprise on their faces, but they soon realized their mistake, quickly restrained their emotions, and walked towards their beloved father with firm steps.

At that moment, there was no longer any frivolity or laughter in their eyes, instead there was a deep awe and respect for their mistress. The two stood side by side and respectfully performed a solemn salute to Qiu Ganchi.

Every movement revealed their infinite respect and loyalty to this great mistress.

As Qiu Ganchi's identity was confirmed, the atmosphere in the hall instantly became heated. Most of the servants who were over 30 or 40 years old had witnessed her elegance and majesty in the past.

At this moment, they were even more excited. They came from all directions, asking everything about their mistress, Qiu Ganchi. Everyone here expressed their respect and love for their mistress, Qiu Ganchi, in their own way.

“Everyone, get out of my way!!”

Just when the atmosphere in the hall was peaceful, Gongsun Zhi's voice exploded like thunder, instantly breaking the originally quiet and peaceful atmosphere. His face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip from it.

There were complex emotions flickering in his eyes, including a hint of imperceptible regret for the past, as well as panic and anger at the current situation. However, this imperceptible regret was only fleeting.

The air around them seemed to freeze. All the servants who were busy or chatting beside Qiu Ganchi turned around in shock, their eyes cast towards the usually dignified and inviolable master of the valley.

Their faces were filled with confusion and surprise. They didn't understand why Gongsun Zhi would suddenly attack in such a harmonious and beautiful moment. However, Gongsun Zhi did not give them much time to think.

The panic in Gongsun Zhi's eyes was like a meteor across the night sky, which disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by endless anger and determination. He stared at the figure not far away who made him hate him so much, and roared.

"Bitch, you actually have the nerve to come back? You didn't die even after falling off a cliff, you must be really lucky!!"

Every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, full of resentment and unwillingness. For a moment, Gongsun Zhi's chest rose and fell violently, and it was obvious that he was going through a fierce struggle in his heart.

Gongsun Lu'e's heart was as if wrapped in ice when she was beside her mother Qiu Ganchi, but she still held a faint spark of hope. Every minute and every second, she missed and yearned for the time of family harmony in her heart.

Gongsun Lu'e wholeheartedly hopes that her father Gongsun Zhi can come to his senses, admit his mistakes, and reconcile with her mother Qiu Ganchi, who has suffered a lot but remains tenacious, so that the shattered home can once again find its former warmth and peace.

However, things in the world often do not go as one wishes. When Gongsun Lue'e looked for a glimmer of hope from her father Gongsun Zhi with great expectation, she was struck by a bolt from the blue. Gongsun Zhi did not feel the slightest regret.

Instead, he spoke those chilling words in an extremely cold and even slightly sarcastic tone.

At that moment, Gongsun Lue'e felt as if thousands of sharp blades were piercing her heart at the same time. The pain was so severe that she could hardly breathe. Tears filled her eyes, but Gongsun Lue'e held back the tears and did not let them slide down her face, because she knew that she had to be strong at this moment.

So, at that moment, Gongsun Lu'e's inner excitement surged out like a tide. She could no longer suppress her emotions and spoke quickly, her voice trembling and anxious.

"Dad! Mom is really not dead. You should apologize to her and ask her to forgive you. Mom has a soft heart. She will definitely be able to feel your regret and deep affection, and forgive your past mistakes. Our family can still be reunited like before."

Gongsun Lu'e's eyes were filled with tears, like the brightest stars in the night sky, sparkling with endless anticipation for family reunion. Every tear that fell carried her deep nostalgia for the warm times of the past.

Gongsun Lue'e's words were full of pleading and hope, as well as the beautiful vision of being able to spend the future together again, as if she was using all her strength to weave a dream, a dream about home, love and forgiveness.

In this dream, there are no more quarrels and separations, only a warm picture of mutual support and moving forward together. Gongsun Lu'e imagines the whole family sitting together, with laughter filling every corner.

She firmly believed that as long as one had sincerity and love in one's heart, nothing was impossible to overcome. Therefore, Gongsun Lue'e used all her strength to awaken the tenderness in her father Gongsun Zhi's heart and let love reconnect this once broken home.

However, Gongsun Zhi's answer was like a basin of cold water poured on Gongsun Lu'e's heart, shattering her hopes instantly. He looked at his daughter Gongsun Lu'e coldly, with a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth.

"Ask her to forgive me? What have I done wrong? Is there anything wrong with me?"

Gongsun Zhi sneered.

His tone was full of disdain and arrogance, as if he was always right.

When Gongsun Lu'e heard this, her face instantly lost all color, as pale as the first snowflakes falling in winter covering her skin. She widened her eyes, her pupils full of disbelief and shock.

Her heartbeat seemed to stop at this moment, and her ears echoed with the cold and ruthless words of her father Gongsun Zhi. Every word was like a sharp knife, piercing deeply into her heart.

Gongsun Lu'e had never thought that her father, Gongsun Zhi, whom she had always regarded as her god and her support, the tall, majestic and omnipotent man in her heart, would actually do such a cruel and decisive thing.

Tears welled up in her eyes but did not fall for a long time because Gongsun Lue'e could not believe that all this was true. She tried hard to find a trace of former warmth or regret on the face of her father Gongsun Zhi, but she only saw indifference and determination.

This mixture of pain and disappointment came like a surging tide, drowning Gongsun Lue'e and making her feel as if the whole world had collapsed at this moment, and all the beauty and hope had turned into nothing.

However, even in such despair, Gongsun Lu'e still did not give up her last hope. She tried her best to calm herself down. Although her voice was trembling, she still mustered up the courage to continue speaking.

"Daddy..., you...how can you...how can you say that? I have always...trusted you so much, respected you so much, but...how can you do such a heinous thing?"

There was a hint of pleading and confusion in Gongsun Lu'e's tone, as if she was still expecting her father Gongsun Zhi to give a reasonable explanation, or a hint of remorse.

But Gongsun Zhi just looked at her coldly, without any emotion, without any sign of remorse or regret, so Gongsun Lu'e had to turn the anger and grief in her heart into more intense words.

"Dad, why don't you admit your mistake? Mom told me everything about this. You drugged Mom, broke her tendons, and threw her off a cliff, leaving her in a state of suffering for more than ten years."

At this point, Gongsun Lu'e's eyes had already turned red, and tears flowed out uncontrollably like a flood that broke through a dam, drawing crystal tracks in the air and finally falling weakly on her lapels.

The piece of cloth was soaked in an instant, and her voice became trembling and weak due to emotional excitement. Every word seemed to be squeezed out from the bottom of her heart, filled with endless sorrow and helplessness.

"Daddy... don't you... feel any guilt or remorse at all? Do you... do you really believe that everything you did before was right and there was nothing wrong with it?"

Gongsun Lu'e's words were full of despair and questioning, as if she wanted to pour out all the pain, grievance and unwillingness that had been accumulated in her heart for a long time. Her eyes were empty and complicated, and she was puzzled and angry about her father Gongsun Zhi's behavior.
