Volume 1] Chapter 121 - Cruel woman..

"Elder Ji, please calm down," the village chief urged, his voice taking on a pleading tone, hoping to diffuse the escalating situation.

Elder Ji's response was swift and fierce. "How dare you, village chief! Do you think I can calm down in this situation?" Her words dripped with venom as she locked eyes with him, her anger palpable in the air.

She gritted her teeth, a visible effort to control her rising fury, but her clenched fist betrayed the intensity of her emotions.

The chief, sensing her mounting anger, tried once more to reason with her, his voice now tinged with concern and a hint of desperation.

"But Elder Ji, we are trying our best to resolve this," he pleaded, his words falling on deaf ears as Elder Ji's anger continued to simmer, refusing to be placated by mere words.

The villagers, observing the tense exchange, exchanged uneasy glances, unsure of how to intervene in the face of Elder Ji's unyielding rage.
