Bai Aoxue felt a little uneasy suddenly in her heart because she didn’t expect that Jun Yeyan would have such intense emotions. Before, Jun Yeyan was always calm and indifferent no matter what happened.
Seeing that Liushuang was about to push the door open, Bai Aoxue reached out her hand to stop Liushuang hurriedly by grasping his arm, shaking her head to Liushuang.
Although Liushuang didn’t know why Bai Aoxue acted like that, he still stopped.
“Master… The stronghold of the Mobei Dynasty hasn’t sent any message for a long time… Today, I received a message from them that the Mobei Dynasty and the Chengxi Dynasty would unite by marriage. Princess Luoyan will marry Jun Wuhen. However, it is said by the Chengxi Dynasty that General Ye is prepared to conspire against the imperial court since he is worried about the army…” Zhao’s calm voice was trembling slightly.
Hearing Zhao’s words, Bai Aoxue only felt that her heart missed a beat. She only felt in her mind that she could not hear the following words of Zhao, so she pushed the door open quickly.
While Zhao stopped his talk in time. Seeing Bai Aoxue appearing suddenly, he felt very nervous and perturbed in his mind.
Princess…how much did she hear on earth?
Bai Aoxue calmly entered the room and saw Zhao who was nervous and perturbed as well as Jun Yeyan who was angry and helpless.
“What happened? What are you talking about? I hope that I didn’t interrupt you. If not, please continue your conversation.” Bai Aoxue said while looking at Jun Yeyan calmly.
But her fists were clenched tightly unconsciously.
Seeing that Bai Aoxue was like this, Jun Yeyan felt very perturbed in his heart.
But Zhao looked at Jun Yeyan at a loss, wanting Jun Yeyan to give an order to him.
“Zhao! Continue your talk. Tell Xue! Xue should be informed of this as well.” Jun Yeyan took a deep breath and said in a low and deep voice as if he struggled to make up his mind.
While Zhao was slightly stunned after hearing Jun Yeyan’s words. He dared not to look directly at Bai Aoxue.
Bai Aoxue opened her red lips gently and said slowly while her voice was slightly trembling, “Zhao, just say it.”
But she controlled her voice so well that others couldn’t detect, which was just right.
“I received a message from the stronghold of the Mobei Dynasty just now…, that General Ye’s life was uncertain!” Zhao took a deep breath and finally said while looking at Bai Aoxue.
On hearing his words, Bai Aoxue breathed gently, with her sparkling eyes turning dark for a while. She looked at Zhao with her black and deep eyes. She said, “Why?”
“The news spread from the military camp of the Chengxi Dynasty that Jun Wuhen dispatched the imperial edict that General Ye should be executed on the spot for his intention of conspiring against the imperial court. Some soldiers loyal to General Ye didn’t believe Jun Wuhen’s words and protected General Ye desperately. But they didn’t expect that the army of the Mobei Dynasty cooperated with the men of Jun Wuhen to attack General Ye.” Zhao said in a low voice. His voice was trembling irrepressibly.
Zhao finally made up his mind to tell the truth to Bai Aoxue. “Our men protected General Ye desperately, but there were too many soldiers of the Mobei Dynasty. We could have evaded successfully, but when we covered General Ye to escape to Yanwei Mountain, Princess Luoyan appeared by accident. General Ye did not notice it at that time and was secretly attacked by Princess Luoyan, causing him to roll down from the cliff. We are still searching for General Ye now, but we haven’t found him yet. We suspect that he was found first by the men of the Mobei Dynasty, who took him away.”
Hearing Zhao’s words, Bai Aoxue still remained an indifferent look on her face. There was no change in her face, except for some madness appearing in her phoenix-like eyes. However, others didn’t detect it.
“In other words, the Mobei Dynasty has cooperated with the Chengxi Dynasty? Let me guess… They will unite by the marriage of Jun Wuhen and Luoyan, right? Uh-huh? Am I right or not, Zhao?” Bai Aoxue asked lightly, with her clear and light voice concealing her mood at this moment.
Hearing Bai Aoxue’s words, Zhao nodded slowly and said, “Princess, you are right. Princess Luoyan will marry Jun Wuhen indeed. We didn’t believe it at first, and we were informed by some spies dispatched into the palace later. That day, we thought that the person assassinating General Ye wasn’t Luoyan, and someone pretended to be her. But after a lot of verification, it is exactly Luoyan!”
“Very well. Very Well. All of you are the same…” Bai Aoxue nodded gently. There was some coldness in her words, which was unfamiliar to even Jun Yeyan.
“Luoyan? Just wait and see…” Bai Aoxue said softly.
After saying that, she strode forward with her long legs and was about to go out.
“Xue! Where are you going?” Jun Yeyan walked quickly to the side of Bai Aoxue and made her turn around to him.
But he saw the scene that made him distressed most and shocked most as well.
His proudest girl was shedding tears silently at this time.
She didn’t let out a whimper with her white teeth biting her thin lip gently. Her tears fell down just like a scattered string of pearls that were crystal clear.
Strings and strings…
They fell to the ground and dissipated slowly. The dust was splashed up, and many flowers of despair bloomed.
“Xue… Since our uncle hasn’t been found out yet, it means that he is still alive, and he will be fine… Do you understand?” Jun Yeyan slowly stretched out his slim and slender hand to wipe Bai Aoxue’s tears off, trembling a little.
But no matter how he wiped, her tears still gushed uncontrollably just like the flood that broke the dike. She was the person he loved and cherished.
He said once that he would hold her in his hands, making her away from sadness and sorrow. But now, each drop of her tears falling down made him feel extremely painful.
Bai Aoxue waved away Jun Yeyan’s hand suddenly. She turned around to leave the stifling room.
She didn’t believe either the destiny or gods and devils, but only herself. But why did God always treat her like this? Both in the preceding world and in this present word, the warmth she got painstakingly was deprived ruthlessly over and over.
It seemed that each time of deprivation told her that she didn’t deserve to have any love or warmth. She was always solitary, lonely, and indifferent.
The family affection and the warmth, which she got painstakingly, were all deprived time and time again, making her go forward alone. Life was so long. Without those nagging family members around her, how could a family be integrated?
Wasn’t it said that I could go home whenever I felt sad and got injured? Wasn’t it said that you would always wait for me at home?
Didn’t you say all of these things, my uncle?
Bai Aoxue wiped her tears off fiercely and left quickly, but she encountered Bai Suxue who was coming.
“Bai Aoxue! Hah, ha-ha… Ye Zhaojue is dead! You deserve it! You’re finally punished! You deserve it!” Bai Suxue pointed at Bai Aoxue and laughed out loud, saying, as if she had gone mad.
But her voice was so loud that everyone was alarmed for a moment.
“Seeing that you lost your family member, I am really very happy.” Bai Suxue said madly with great hatred in her eyes.
Bai Aoxue didn’t intend to pay attention to Bai Suxue, but Bai Suxue’s voice came again when she just leaned over and walked away.
“Oh… By the way, I forgot to tell you that there were also some people of the Ink-blood Tower among those people who besieged Ye Zhaojue. Because you killed the second lord of the Ink-blood Tower. It’s your retribution!”
Bai Aoxue had intended to leave, but hearing Bai Suxue’s words, she stopped for a while and said, “How did you know that?”
“Of course, I know! Because I told them! You think that your action is flawless, but I have seen you kill him. You have never expected it, right? Actually, I belong to the Ink-blood Tower! Ha-ha…” Bai Suxue said. She laughed out loud, not caring about Bai Aoxue’s mood at all.
Hearing the noise over here, Mumian, Wenxi, and others, who came out, got a homicidal intent in their hearts.
When all of them stared at Bai Aoxue, Bai Aoxue drew the two daggers out of her sleeves swiftly, leaning over and passing by Bai Suxue.
“Chidian, eat her hands in the face of her now.” Her voice was as cold and gruesome as that of the demon in the hell, resounding in the ears of everyone.
Bai Suxue watched her arms fly over before her eyes and then fall to the ground. Finally, they were gnawed by the beast pouncing on her.
“Don’t hurry. The two legs are all left to you. This time, you can have a good taste of the real flesh of human beings.” The indifferent voice made Bai Suxue shiver.
With the cold light of the dagger flashing, Bai Suxue only felt that she lost something in her body. She even did not feel the pain, and then she had already fallen to the ground heavily. Her funny appearance looked extremely horrible at this moment.
Because the person lying on the floor only had a body without hands or feet.
“I have warned that you mustn’t hurt the people around me because you can’t pay the price. But you don’t believe me. Why?” Bai Aoxue said softly, slowly squatting down to look at Bai Suxue.
While Bai Suxue could see carefully the look of Bai Aoxue at this moment. Her fair-skinned face was tinted with some coldness and ghastliness. The light of her eyes seemed to be a little mad and bloodthirsty.
Bai Aoxue’s previous look disappeared completely. At this moment, she behaved as if she was bewitched, making people feel too afraid to look at her.
“I will not kill you. At least, before I find out my uncle, I will still keep you alive.” Bai Aoxue said, getting up and looking down at Bai Suxue.
After saying that, she took a porcelain bottle out of her sleeve and slowly sprinkled the powder in the bottle on Bai Suxue’s limbs.
“Leave her alive and wait for me to come back.” Bai Aoxue squinted at Mumian, Hongxiu, and others, who were silent, and said.
After saying that, she turned over and jumped down from the second floor before they could answer.
Mumian and others didn’t come to their senses until Bai Aoxue walked out of the post house.
They had never seen Bai Aoxue who acted like that just now, which was too horrible and shocking.
The expression in her eyes shone with a flowing light that was flickering, but it made people feel extremely cold. That wasn’t their Miss who they were familiar with!
Her eyes were unaffectionate when she looked at them, and there was not a light of hope in her eyes.
Watching Bai Aoxue leave, Jun Yeyan concealed all the expressions in his phoenix-like eyes and clenched his fists unconsciously.
Watching Bai Aoxue’s back as she left, Liushuang showed a look of worry in his eyes. “Since I am here for my master, I should leave together with her. You can stay here.”
As soon as he finished his words, a figure leaped up and followed Bai Aoxue to leave in front of him.
Liushuang raised the corners of his lips and then left quickly.
Zhao walked to Wenxi and others, saying in a low and deep voice, “You should stay here, and Nalan will be left to protect you. I will get in touch with you about the follow-up.”
While Wenxi and others all understood the seriousness of the situation. Bai Aoxue’s expression in her eyes made them all feel afraid just now, which was really too terrifying!
“Brother Zhao…, you must protect Miss well!” Mumian said in a sobbing voice.
Hearing her words, Zhao looked in the direction where Bai Aoxue left and was lost in his mind. Who could stop Princess who acted like that?
While on this side, Bai Aoxue went out of the post house and directly headed for the stable. Then she pulled Xiaobai out of there.
When she was just about to turn over to mount the horse, a crowd of officers and men came out and stopped her.
A man looking like a general walked towards Bai Aoxue and asked, “Miss Bai, it is so late now. Could you please tell me where you are going?”
Watching the officers and men in the way, Bai Aoxue showed a look of coldness and indifference in her eyes. She gently opened her lips which were as red as blood and said, “Go away.”
The general was obviously stunned because he didn’t expect that Bai Aoxue would say that. Then, he said in a deep voice, “We are dispatched by the emperor to protect Miss Bai here. If Miss Bai has something to do, please allow me to inform the emperor first.”
“Go away. Tell Qi Liange that I am not the person of the Nanyue Dynasty.” Bai Aoxue said gently, pulling the rein tightly.
But the man seemed not to care about Bai Aoxue’s harsh words and still said calmly, “Miss Bai, please return to your room and wait in patience.”
There was a cold light flashing in Bai Aoxue’s eyes. The crescent moon hanging high in the sky was tinted with some strange red lights.
