Chapter 671 Bottom Line
"Wait." When Yan Li and the others were about to leave, the head of the Xie family suddenly stopped them.
"What's wrong?" Yan Li looked confused.
"Miss Yan, I can't enter this barrier." Patriarch Xie pointed to the protective barrier in front of him with some embarrassment.
"By the way, senior brother, give him the control of the barrier." Yan Li felt ashamed when he heard this. He actually forgot about this.
"Okay." The War King responded and handed over the control of the barrier to Patriarch Xie.
Yan Li also gave him the control of the repeated formation.
"Butler, let's go." Yan Li smiled and looked at the butler beside her.
"Okay, please come in, miracle doctor." The butler nodded with a smile.
"Butler, you should just call me Miss Yan. Calling me 'miracle doctor' sounds weird." After saying that, Yan Li looked at the butler.
"Yes, Miss Yan." The housekeeper nodded quickly upon hearing this.
Miss Yan is really humble. She is indeed a miracle doctor but she still lets me call her Miss Yan.
Unlike some quack doctors who deceive the world and steal their reputation, they always like others to call them miracle doctors even though their medical skills are obviously not very good.
After Yan Li and the others left, the head of the Xie family entered the protective barrier, pushed open the door of Xie Ze's room and walked in.
If you ask why they all went into Xie Ze's room first when they arrived, it was actually because Xie Ze's room was closer.
"Dad, you're here." Xie Ze, who was lying on the bed, smiled when he saw the head of the Xie family.
"Ze'er, do you know what happened outside?" The head of the Xie family looked at Xie Ze.
"What's the matter?" Xie Ze was a little confused.
"Alas...it seems that Miss Yan did not tell you." Patriarch Xie sighed upon seeing this.
"Dad, did something happen to Miss Yan and the others while they were trying to save me?" Xie Ze's eyes were full of worry.
"No, it's...you should go out and see for yourself." Patriarch Xie didn't know what to say.
Anyway, the two people outside were trapped in a repeating formation by Miss Yan, and he would understand everything once he went out and took a look.
"Outside?" Xie Ze was a little surprised.
"Dad, you're here." At this moment, Xie Nian from next door came over.
"Dad, what's going on with those two people outside?" Xie Nian obviously saw the situation of Mi Xin and Li Ji outside.
"The fact is what you saw, they are here to kill you." Patriarch Xie said coldly.
"Who? Who wants to kill us?" Xie Ze looked at them in confusion.
"Brother, you are still weak. I will carry you out to see it with my own eyes." Xie Nian said as he carried Xie Ze on his back on the bed.
"Nian'er, your injury..." Seeing this, the head of the Xie family was very worried.
"Miss Yan gave me a pill and I am now cured." Xie Nian said with a smile.
"Our Xie family owes Miss Yan too much." The head of the Xie family sighed.
"Brother, let me take you out for a look first." Xie Nian said and walked out of the room with Xie Ze on his back.
"It's Senior Brother and Xin'er. Are they the ones who came to kill me and Nian'er?" Xie Ze's eyes were full of disbelief.
"That's right. They wanted to kill you, but were discovered by Miss Yan who came to check on you and trapped. In order to prevent other people from coming to assassinate you, Miss Yan and her companions set up a protective barrier around your room." Patriarch Xie explained.
"Nian'er, they said that you witnessed what happened to Master Ze'er. What exactly did you witness him do?" The head of the Xie family looked at Xie Nian.
"I don't know either. I have never seen my eldest brother's master. How would I know when I ran into him?" Xie Nian was also confused.
Upon hearing this, Xie Ze used his spiritual power to create a water curtain in front of him, and an old man appeared inside the water curtain.
"Anian, have you seen him?" Xie Ze looked at Xie Nian.
"Him? Oh, by the way, brother, before we were attacked that day, I saw him kidnap a girl. I couldn't catch up with him because he was too fast." Seeing the person in the water curtain, Xie Nian suddenly realized.
"He is my master. Why did he kidnap the girl?" Xie Ze frowned when he heard this.
"It must be something bad, otherwise why would he want to kill me to silence me?" Xie Nian replied.
"Ze'er, what are you going to do with them?" The head of the Xie family looked at Xie Ze.
"First, cripple them and lock them up in the dungeon." A hint of coldness flashed across Xie Ze's eyes.
It's not that I'm soft-hearted, it's just that I still need them.
"Okay, let's do as you say." Patriarch Xie nodded.
He walked over and grabbed Mi Xin out of the formation, and crippled her before she could react.
Next up is Li Ji.
Mi Xin and Li Ji, who collapsed on the ground after being crippled, finally came to themselves.
They saw the three members of the Xie family in front of them were filled with shock, and when they found out that they had been crippled, they were even more horrified.
After all, they have no memory of the time they were trapped in the repetitive formation.
"Brother Xie, why did you destroy us?" Mi Xin looked at Xie Ze with anger on her face.
"Xie Ze, Xin'er and I came to visit you on the orders of our master, but you plotted against us." Li Ji's eyes were also filled with anger.
"Don't you know what you are doing?" Xie Ze's tone was full of coldness.
"What did we do?" Li Ji wanted to continue to quibble.
"Stop quibbling. You are obviously here to kill us." Xie Nian spoke directly.
"Kill you? Senior Brother Xie, what are you talking about?" Mi Xin said with a flash in his eyes.
“See for yourselves.” Patriarch Xie mobilized his spiritual power and attacked the repeating formation.
Mi Xin and Li Ji appeared in the repeating formation.
The scene of their previous dispute reappeared before them.
After Yan Li handed over the control of the repeating formation to Patriarch Xie, he discovered that the repeating formation also had a backtracking function.
Even if the scene of Mi Xin arguing with Li Ji and others is repeated several times, it can be traced back several times.
Seeing the scene inside the repeating formation, Mi Xin and Li Ji's faces turned pale instantly.
They didn't expect that they came here to kill people, but they had already fallen into someone else's trap.
"Brother Xie, listen to me, I don't want to kill you. I have been trying to stop Senior Brother from killing you." Mi Xin said as she was about to grab the corner of Xie Ze's clothes but he dodged her.
"You don't want to kill me, but you want to kill my dearest brother." Xie Ze said in a very cold tone.
"Xie, Brother. This is Master's order and I have no choice." Mi Xin burst into tears.
"Since you can't do it, then I can't do it either. For A Nian's safety, I can't keep you." After saying that, Xie Ze turned around and ignored her.
Seeing this, Mi Xin could only sit there in despair.
Li Ji on the side said nothing. He knew that he could not escape since he had been discovered.
The head of the Xie family called out the secret guards to capture Mi Xin and Li Ji and lock them up in the dungeon.
"Brother, are you okay?" Xie Nian looked at Xie Ze worriedly.
"I'm fine. Family is my bottom line. Anian, nothing is more important than you." Xie Ze looked at Xie Nian with a smile.
Xie Nian nodded repeatedly upon hearing this.
"Ze'er, Nian'er, you should recuperate in the protective barrier for a while, and leave the other things to your father." The head of the Xie family looked at Xie Ze and the other man.
"Okay." Xie Ze and the other man nodded.
