Yun Qianyu clenched her fists and ground her teeth, wondering if she should just yell at this man and tell him to go f*ck himself. ‘Fine! just go and cancel the marriage!’
However, after thinking about it realistically, she held herself back. Right now, she hadn’t cultivated her spirit energy yet so she still needed the protection of the title.
“Your Highness doesn’t want to find out the real culprit that killed your fiancees? Does Your Highness not want to rebuild your reputation? Do you not want to kill the real culprit?”
Since Xiao Jiuyuan’s Dragon Scale Army was attacked recently, he was still pissed. Yun Qianyu purposefully mentioned the real culprit in order to get to him.
Sure enough, when Yun Qianyu mentioned this, Xiao Jiuyuan’s face darkened, and his hands clenched tightly. Filled with killing intent, Xiao Jiuyuan said in a cold voice, “If I find out who this person is, I’ll definitely chop him into a thousand pieces.”
Xiao Jiuyuan then looked at Yun Qianyu and said, “As a chess piece, you don’t seem very competent. You are always busy with your own affairs, and have never worked for this Prince. Didn’t you say previously that you would go out more in order to attract the attention of the killers? Instead of doing that, you’ve only been staying home or going to places with me.”
Hearing that, Yun Qianyu had to somewhat agree with his statement. It was true that she had only been busy with her own matters and had not been working for Xiao Jiuyuan.
Now that she had acquired a spirit energy evoking manual, she could definitely work on the Xiao Jiuyuan’s case and cultivate to become stronger at the same time.
By the time she found the real culprit, she may already have become quite powerful. ‘At that time, I wouldn’t care if Xiao Jiuyuan wants to cancel the marriage. In fact, if he doesn’t let me go, I would even have to think of something to get away from him myself.’
After thinking about it, Yun Qianyu looked at Xiao Jiuyuan and said, “Your Highness, don’t worry. Soon enough, I’ll go out more to attract the attention of the real culprit.”
“That’s good.”
Xiao Jiuyuan then said in a flat tone, “Like I said previously, don’t expect help from this Prince.”
“Yes, I know.”
With that, Xiao Jiuyuan ordered the coachman outside, “Send Miss Yun back to her residence.”
“Yes, Your Highness.” The coachmen replied and then started the journey toward the capitol.
In the carriage, Xiao Jiuyuan no longer paid attention to Yun Qianyu, thinking instead about the recent events. First of all, someone had plotted against him behind his back, damaging his reputation.
Then, someone had even dared to attack his Dragon Scale Army. ‘Could it be that these two attacks are linked somehow? Were they perpetrated by the same group of people?’
Xiao Jiuyuan thought about it for a while and decided that the two incidents might have been planned out by the same group.
No matter whether it was the Bei Di people or not, Xiao Jiuyuan was at least sure that there was someone in Dongli state working with these people. Otherwise, how could they be so familiar with his fiancees and the Dragon Scale Army?
Thinking about the fact that someone in Dongli state was betraying him and his Dragon Scale Army, he became incredibly angry. A cold aura was radiating from his body filling the carriage with cold air.
Across from him in the carriage, Yun Qianyu wasn’t bothered by this at all, as she had already shut her eyes and was thinking about her spirit energy.
The carriage drove smoothly into the capital and then straight to Eternal Peace Marquis’s Residence. When they reached her residence, the carriage stopped and the coachman said respectfully, “Your Highness, we’ve arrived.”
During the coach ride, Xiao Jiuyuan had shut his eyes while thinking about some things. When he heard the voice of the coachman, he looked straight toward Yun Qianyu and noticed her eyes that were filled with spirit energy.
