Chapter 1019: Chapter 1019: Xia Wu?

Finally, Madam Su asked incredulously, "You... You’re not people from Xia Gui Island?"

Several people were terrified. Ever since that incident three months ago, the servants in their mansion either ran away or went mad, and those dragged out and executed for no reason were dead. In the end, only these two elders and three or four servants were left, utterly scared. So, they completely failed to realize that Han Jing and the others weren’t from Xia Gui Island at all.

"Whether we are people from Xia Gui Island doesn’t matter; what matters is that we might be able to help you. So, do you want to explain everything and give it a try, or continue hiding here waiting to die? You choose." Han Jing didn’t know why Lady Xia didn’t immediately deal with the people of the Su Mansion, probably because she hated them so much and wanted to leave them to suffer slowly!

"Well, what the young lady said makes sense. In any case, we are now... better off dead, so there’s nothing to be afraid of anymore." Mr. Su gritted his teeth and explained the matters concerning the Island Master of Xia Gui Island to them.

It turns out, the Island Master of Xia Gui Island is a woman named Xia Wu.

She is beautiful and possesses high cultivation; she has been the Island Master of Xia Gui Island for over three hundred years and has changed... countless husbands. However, strangely, she hasn’t been able to give birth to a single child.

Xia Gui Island needs an heir, but she resolutely refuses to adopt one and insists on birthing one herself.

Actually, there are over a hundred descendants of the Xia Family on Xia Gui Island, so if properly selected, an appropriate heir could certainly be found. But... because of Xia Wu’s high cultivation, even if clan members oppose, it’s to no avail; no one can change her decision.

Xia Wu possesses White Flame Level cultivation, which is unparalleled on Xia Gui Island, so her words are like iron commands that no one can resist.

However, though Xia Wu has ***, to be fair, aside from having a somewhat chaotic personal life, she was still a very good Island Master before the sudden death of Miss Xia, Xia Zhuzi. Because Xia Gui Island ranked in the top ten among the Thirty-two Islands of the Human Domain, the annual taxes and ores needed were relatively fewer. Plus... the Xia Family had ties in higher places, so before, the days on Xia Gui Island were indeed idyllic and peaceful like a paradise.

No one expected such a thing to happen; Xia Wu seemed to turn into a different person overnight, ranting violently and indiscriminately harming the innocent, leaving the whole island’s common folk in misery. The Xia clan members, due to their lower cultivation, dared not speak out despite their anger, so now Xia Gui Island has become like this.

Han Jing...

Xia Wu?

So, the women of the Xia Clan... are they all so formidable?

Oh, she seems to have forgotten that their family’s beloved Xiao Xue is also a woman of the Xia Clan and even stronger. Of course, she personally trained her, and her character is also very good.

"We will try our best to help clarify what has happened. If Young Master Su truly is innocent, perhaps there’s a chance he could return. The little ghosts in your mansion have already been dealt with, so continue living as you would. If we truly can’t help you, then leave it to fate!" Han Jing thought for a bit and said to them.

Currently, they haven’t met Xia Wu yet and are still uncertain whether Xia Wu also suspects the truth of the matter.
