”All of you, stop …”

Suddenly, the grand elder roared angrily. The clamoring crowd immediately stopped and turned to look at the grand elder at the same time.

”Holy Maiden, even if my daughter accidentally said something wrong and insulted your innocence, she would have had a god punish her. Moreover, there is no wind without waves. I believe that my daughter saw it too, so she said that. Why don't you let us go in and search, and then you can restore your innocence and shut up those people who cause trouble for no reason. ”

The Great Elder stopped the commotion of the villagers and pushed the crying Gu Ling'Er behind him before he spoke with a smile.

Gu Yinuo looked at the father and daughter duo who were singing the same tune in front of him, and a stern look flashed past his eyes.

”Alright, but don't say that I won't give you face when the time comes!”

Just as Gu Yinuo finished speaking, he shot a look at maidservant Ah Man, who was standing at the side, and Ah Man walked back into the house.

”Weng, stay here and support Holy Maiden!” I don't think she's looking too good, but don't get a cold. ”

Seeing that Ah Man had left, the Great Clan Elder shouted loudly, forcing Ah Man to return. She stood beside Gu Yinuo, waiting for the results of the search.

”Holy Maiden …”

A'man pulled on Gu Yinuo's sleeve. She was extremely afraid.

It had to be known that their village had rules. Apart from those designated by the gods, if they were found out, they would be whipped and then thrown out of the village.

Moreover, there was actually a man this time. The Holy Maiden could not interact with any man through words or even physical contact.

If anyone found out, they would definitely die.

”Ah Man, you seem to have something to say …”

Perhaps he had noticed the abnormality in Ah Man, the Great Elder tried to probe, but his eyes were filled with endless killing intent.

”Grand Elder, my maidservant wants to say, my various jewelry is still on the table, don't give it to those whose hands and feet are dirty.”

How could Gu Yinuo not know of his intentions? He had already intentionally chosen a story to disrupt his line of sight, and it was not as good as his intentions.

”Holy Maiden, leave things to me. Don't blame me for not reminding you when I'm your uncle. You are by yourself. In the end, you still have to rely on us to stabilize your position in the Holy Maiden.”

The Great Clan Elder stood there quietly, only seeing his throat move slightly, such a threatening voice warned Gu Yinuo through his words.

”Uncle, what you said sounds really good.” From the day my parents died, I, Gu Yinuo, no longer had any family members. Please do not have a bad memory, Great Elder.

Gu Yinuo swept her gaze filled with hatred, only to see that she was clenching both of her hands tightly. If she could, she would kill this bastard without hesitation.

But when she recalled her father's dying words, she took a deep breath and suppressed the impulse in her heart. Only then did she slowly let go of her hands.

If not for the fact that she had to fulfill her parents' wishes, she would have left this filthy and bloody place and wandered the world, never to return.

As for her expression, it was all captured in the eyes of the Great Elder. In his eyes, there was a trace of disdain, but there was also a deep sense of mockery.

”You can't beat me …”

He looked at Gu Yinuo gently, with a gaze that was not something an uncle should have.

Gu Yinuo, who was standing opposite him, shivered, then thought of that night, which caused her to feel extremely disgusted.

”Elder, I didn't find anyone.”

Not long after, the servant who had entered the room to search hurriedly ran over and respectfully said.

”How is it? Are there any doubts now? ”

Gu Yinuo hid the emotions he was about to release, and said coldly.

”Wait, who said we've finished searching. I know there is a place in Holy Maiden that is not easily discovered, I will personally search there. ”

Gu Ling'er covered her swollen face and hurriedly stood out.

Hearing her words, everyone turned to look at Gu Yinuo, only to see that her expression did not change, as if they had truly wronged her.

After which, he saw that she had brought a few servants with her and was heading inside the house without any qualms.

At this moment, Gu Yinuo's heart had also reached his throat. She had grown up with Gu Ling'er, and Gu Ling'er knew her as well.

Other than her personal maidservant, no one else knew about the secret compartment in her room. However, she was very worried that Gu Ling'er would accidentally find out about it.

If she was discovered like this, she would use her secret arts to protect them.

While she was feeling uneasy, Gu Ling'er walked out and lightly shook her head.

Everyone immediately understood that this was most likely a personal grudge between them. Who in the village didn't know that they had been enemies for a long time? The only thing they lacked was an opportunity.

”Alright, let's go back!” This is something that I will definitely investigate thoroughly and at that time, I will definitely give everyone an explanation. ”

Seeing the impatience on the villagers' faces, the Great Elder looked at his daughter and saw her unquestionable nod. He then smiled and said to the villagers behind him.

”Yes sir!”
