Josh watched with keen interest.

Yuze sidled up to her and whispered, "I’m suddenly more convinced than ever of the existence of your martial arts sect. A family like this could never have raised a rambunctious kid like you."

Josh snorted proudly, "They’ve always been real."

Cherry, seeing the interaction between the two, suddenly brightened up, rushed over, and pounced at Josh’s feet, "Ah! Ahhhh!"

She screeched and wailed, regret filled her face as she clutched Josh’s leg, crying while pounding her chest, looking utterly remorseful.

Josh twitched her mouth, lifted her foot, and kicked Cherry away, lazily saying, "Get lost, don’t dirty my clothes."

She was no saint, sparing Cherry was already her greatest mercy.

Her master once said, patricide and matricide are the gravest sins under heaven, best not to commit, or it would hinder one’s cultivation.

These fools weren’t worth her doing such things.

On the contrary, rather than letting them die easily, she preferred to see these fools watch helplessly as she ascended to power.

The more radiant she became, the more they would live in a chasm of regret and pain.

When they were tormented by remorse and suffering, her world would be free of traces of these fools, she would be powerful enough, standing high enough that they could no longer affect her life.

Josh chuckled, "Now you know regret?"

She squatted down, looking at Cherry, "Do you know? If you had been good to me, maybe I could have been good to the two brothers too, your sons might have had bright futures, wonderful lives, but now, everything is beyond recovery, your sons’ futures, ruined by your own hands!"

Cherry, hearing about her sons, felt even more remorseful, shaking her head while crying, babbling incoherently.

Josh rolled her eyes at Yuze, "Let’s go."

Yuze raised an eyebrow and nodded.

The two left the Augustine family, took off on a spaceship, and departed.

When the ship disappeared from Granel City’s view, Yuze then asked, "Really going back?"

"Of course not!" Josh perked up, "I still have unfinished business!"

She came to kill Susanna, humiliating the people of the Augustine family, settling old scores was just incidental.

Now that the Augustine people knew Susanna’s situation, both sides would definitely go at each other like dogs.

Especially Glennan, he would never let his money go down the drain.

Wait for them to fight each other like dogs.

If Susanna managed to escape, she would definitely head back to the Eden Garden Guild.

They only needed to wait on the necessary route from Granel City to the Eden Garden Guild.

Yuze didn’t interfere with her actions, it was her business to handle autonomously.

However.

Yuze gave her a longing glance, "Didn’t we come here to resolve your engagement issue?"

Josh raised her wrist, "Don’t worry, the confrontation earlier was all recorded by me on video, Glennan personally admitted that the engagement was made without my knowledge, this doesn’t conform to Federation Planet laws on human rights."

On Federation Planet, even minors at least have the right to know.

Parents wanting to make such decisions, especially engagement ones, must seek the consent of the involved party, or else the engagement is void.

Josh added, "After going back, I’ll post something, exposing everything, letting everyone know the true face of the Augustine family and my relationship with them. The last two times Cherry came to me, I also recorded videos as evidence. Cherry last time admitted buying followers for Susanna, piece by piece, all enough to prove my relation with the Augustine family. Soon I will have my coming of age birthday, then I’ll apply to leave the Augustine family, to become independent."

Yuze sighed somewhat helplessly.

Josh gave her a glance.

Yuze shrugged, "A bit frustrated, it seems like the only time I could help you was when you swaggered at the Augustine house."

Josh looked at him amused, "Don’t worry, there’ll be plenty of other times you’ll be useful, no need to feel frustrated."

Yuze looked at her hauntingly, "Really?"

Josh nodded earnestly, "Really, so focus on piloting the ship, don’t look at me, look at the road."

"Oh..." Yuze silently turned his head back.

The Augustine family must be in upheaval, presumably busy with internal strife now.

Josh and Yuze waited on Susanna’s necessary path, nearly thinking Susanna had died at home.

She didn’t appear for the longest time.

It was not until late at night that Susanna appeared shakily in their view, and judging from her appearance, she seemed injured.

That was even better.

Susanna’s spaceship wobbled, like she was driving drunk.

Josh glanced at Yuze.

Yuze understood, directly piloting Mighty General to crash into her.

Josh: "??!!" She hurriedly covered her head to protect her life.

With a loud crash, Susanna’s ship was knocked flying out, completely wrecked, crashing onto the ground.

Josh looked at Yuze in shock, "Why did you crash into her?"

Yuze looked at her puzzled, "Didn’t you tell me to engage?"

Josh: "...I meant stop at a place where we could ambush her."

Yuze: "...Ah."

Fortunately, this was on a deserted road, no one was passing by.

Mighty General parked beside Susanna’s ship.

Susanna had already crawled out of the ship, covered in blood.

Josh raised her eyebrows slightly, getting hit like this shouldn’t have been that serious, right?

Seeing Josh, Susanna’s pupils suddenly contracted, seeming extremely guilty, she turned and ran.

Josh flung a strand of Spider Silk, pulling her back.

Susanna kept running forward, but realized she was still in place.

She turned her head in terror, watching Josh get closer.

Yuze just stood by watching, killing a weakling like this didn’t require his intervention.

Josh flew forward, the Spider Silk wrapped around Susanna’s neck.

Susanna paled, hurriedly using her hands to block the Spider Silk, "Josh! Josh don’t kill me! Sis... Sister, we’re siblings, don’t kill me, please? I beg you, don’t kill me, I... I won’t ever trouble you again!"

"As long as you don’t kill me, once I return to the guild, I’ll speak well of you, ensure no one in our guild bullies you!"

Josh chuckled, looking at her, "Sorry, I don’t seem to need you to do that for me, those guild morons won’t bully me either."

Susanna was so scared tears started streaming down, she trembled, clinging to Josh’s hand like her last lifeline, "Josh, please, don’t kill me? I know you’re really just cold on the outside, warm on the inside, you wouldn’t really harm me, right?"

Josh thought for a moment, then loosened the Spider Silk, "Forget it, killing a healer like you isn’t much of a challenge, get lost."

Susanna, overjoyed, turned to run.

"Poof" Susanna’s pupils suddenly contracted.

She looked down in disbelief at her chest, where a searing tear of pain radiated from her heart.

A strand of Spider Silk had pierced her heart, wrapping around and wrenching it out.

Josh retracted the Spider Silk, smiling, "Just kidding, I’m no saint after all, I wouldn’t let you off so easily~"

Susanna’s body fell slowly to the ground.
