The killing intent coming out of Di Cang has grown even more intense: “Speak, are you the reason my wife left the palace again this time? I will only give you this once chance so don’t even try to lie. As long as you speak the truth then I will let you keep your body intact!”
Pursing her lips into a thin white line: “I did not lie. The queen really did sell the princess out….”
Pfff!
Those last words didn’t even get to finish before Di Cang once again acted. Using his leg this time, he steps down hard at the girl’s chest and makes her spray blood up into the air like a fountain from the mouth.
Mu Xue’s face went bleakly white as she loses all the energy from her body. She simply doesn’t understand why this was happening and why the king wouldn’t run off to kill the queen in a fit of rage. Everything was turning out wrong and away from her plan!
Then as if to answer her question of why, a soft melodic voice suddenly cuts in from the front: “Were you talking about me?”
Stiffly swinging around, Mu Xue could see the one person she dreaded meeting in this moment. Even worse, there’s also two children with her, one being seven to eight years old, the other still a baby wearing a dress. Just that instead of being a girl, the baby was instead a boy that still had baby fat!
Gawking her mouth as the mind went white, Mu Xue couldn’t begin to process this reality.
What’s going on?
Why is the little prince wearing a dress similar to the princess’s?
Why is it so similar to the child’s clothing back in the cave?
“Mother!” Exactly then another childish cry breaks in. This time around, it’s Mu Ying walking inside with a baby girl in her arms.
“Ling Yan?” Bai Xiao also appeared stunned by this twist of event. Staring dumbfoundedly at his own niece who toddled over to her mother, “What’s going on here Sister? Isn’t Ling Yan supposed to be missing?”
And why are the twin’s crossdressing?
Oblivious to the stir she herself has caused, Di Ling Yan only wanted to snuggle her head inside Bai Yan’s arms. Mother’s scent is the best. I prefer Mother’s hug more….
“Ling Yan was tired earlier so I had Mu Ying take her to rest. As for her clothes, I had them changed as well.” That said, Bai Yan then casts her eyes downward at the pale stricken Mu Xue, “I didn’t think you would be so dumb to bring yourself to us when we we’re looking for you.”
I didn’t think you would be so dumb to bring yourself to us when we we’re looking for you…..
This sentence wouldn’t stop echoing in the witch’s head, which directly causes her to tremble profusely knowing what it meant.
It’s intentional!
Everything, everything is intentional!
She deliberately lured me so I would fall into her net on my own! In the end she’s worried I will steal the king’s favor, that’s why she’s doing all this!
Biting her lower lip, Mu Xue finally came back to her senses. Even now, this wretched witch refuses to admit everything was her own delusion.
