"By the grace of Heaven, the Imperial Preceptor decrees that Miss Luo Yun be summoned to an audience."

Just as "Blood Purple Rose" and Qiu Yunce were about to go to sleep, the Imperial Preceptor Qiu Tianxiang sent someone to deliver an imperial edict.

"Chu Xing, has something happened?"

The newcomer was none other than Chu Xing, Qiu Tianxiang's apprentice. Qiu Yuance quickly stuffed a piece of silver into Chu Xing's hand and asked, while a sense of unease rose in his heart.

"Who dares to inquire about the Imperial Preceptor's affairs? Has the Sixth Young Master forgotten the rules after just a few days in the 'Purple Cloud Kingdom'?"

Chu Xing stuffed the loose silver into his pocket, but still maintained an arrogant attitude.

Then he muttered something.

“Those born of lowly people are indeed unworthy of respect; they know nothing of manners.”

Upon hearing this, Qiu Yunze's face turned ashen, his hands clenched tightly, yet he held back his anger. "Blood Purple Rose," however, could not bear it any longer and slapped Chu Xing across the face.

“When my husband asks you a question, answer it properly. Who do you think you are, daring to publicly insult the son of the Imperial Preceptor? Don’t you want your head?”

"How dare you hit me? Do you know who I am? I am..."

Chu Xing couldn't believe it. Because of Qiu Tianxiang, no one in the entire Qingyu Kingdom dared to offend him, yet this person in front of him dared to hit him.

"So what if I hit you? You worthless lackey, do you think you're the master? Or do you think you're higher in status than the Imperial Advisor?"

"Blood Purple Rose" delivered another hard slap.

"Take it down."

Chu Xing shouted in a deep voice, and the guards he brought immediately surrounded "Blood Purple Rose".

"Wait a minute."

Qiu Yunce coldly shouted, Chu Xing's expression dark and sinister.

"What, is Sixth Young Master planning a rebellion?"

"Yun Ce wouldn't dare. Yun Ce just feels that since Father has summoned Luo Yun, there must be something he needs to discuss. If Lord Chu lingers here, it might be difficult to explain to Father, wouldn't it?"

Chu Yunmo spoke in a calm, unwavering voice. Chu Xing snorted coldly.

"Alright, very good. Let's talk about it after we meet the Imperial Advisor!"

Chu Xing made a harsh statement, then turned and left.

"My husband, did I do something wrong? I just didn't want to hear anyone insult you."

"Blood Purple Rose" looked like a wronged little wife, leaving Qiu Yunce feeling helpless. Mu Chun, however, couldn't help but say something.

"Miss Luo Yun, can you please stop being so impulsive?"

The young master tried hard to please the Imperial Advisor, hoping to bring his wife to his side to take care of her.

But if you keep causing trouble for the young master…

"Alright, that's enough, let's go!"

Qiu Yunce interrupted Mu Chun, took "Xue Ziwei's" hand, but did not blame her.

Qiu Yunze wasn't stupid; he knew that "Blood Purple Rose" was standing up for him. He had wanted to take action against a lackey like Chu Xing for a long time, but he dared not act rashly because of his father's authority.

In the palace, Chu Xing exaggerated and said many bad things about "Blood Purple Rose," saying that "Blood Purple Rose" cursed Qiu Tianxiang as worse than a pig or a dog, that he treated human life like dirt, and that he was a demon and a beast...

In short, she said whatever sounded offensive, which was exactly what Yunxuan had said. This infuriated Qiu Tianxiang. As soon as "Blood Purple Rose" and Qiu Yunce entered the main hall, he immediately grabbed her by the throat.

"I heard you insulted my national teacher? Is that true?"

Qiu Tianxiang's hands were withered and dry. He looked young on the surface, but his hands were like those of an eighty-year-old man. In short, the whole thing looked extremely incongruous. His withered hands were strong and powerful, and he pinched "Xue Ziwei" until her eyes turned white.

"Father, Father, please have mercy! The altar needs Luo Yun's blood. If Luo Yun dies, the altar will never be able to open."

Upon hearing Qiu Yunce mention the altar, Qiu Tianxiang then forcefully threw the "Blood Purple Rose" to the ground.

"To insult me ​​is a crime deserving of death, do you even realize that?"

"Luo Yun has never insulted her father; Luo Yun respects her father."

Qiu Yunce spoke first, but was slapped hard by Qiu Tianxiang.

"Did I ask you? If you betray your father, believe me, I will cripple you right now, you heartless wretch."

"Young master, are you alright?"

Qiu Tianxiang, whose internal strength was unknown, sent Qiu Yunce flying with a single slap. "Xue Ziwei" was dumbfounded, and Mu Chun hurriedly stepped forward to help him up.

Seeing her husband being beaten, "Blood Purple Rose's" fiery temper flared up again. She put her hands on her hips, utterly enraged.

“What’s wrong with me scolding you? I’m scolding you for not being able to judge people properly. You believe what a servant says, but you don’t believe what your own son says. That’s called being blind.”

A man in his sixties who keeps defiling young girls' innocence—that's animalistic.

A man who lets his woman be trampled on by others and doesn't care, while happily counting the money his woman earns with her body, is worse than an animal. How can you say he's wronged...?

"Blood Purple Rose" became more and more vehement with her insults, while Qiu Yunce's expression turned grim, and he shouted in a deep voice...

"Luo Yun, quickly apologize to your father."

“I won’t apologize. I did nothing wrong. He’s a beast, worse than a pig or a dog. If it weren’t for the fact that he’s your father, I would kill him right now.”

"Blood Purple Rose" has always been clear about her likes and dislikes, and at this moment she was really going all out.

"I forgot to ask you, were it you who kicked my four sons towards Yun Ce's mother?"

At this moment, Qiu Tianxiang showed no emotion, his tone was flat and even, but Qiu Yuance knew he was on the verge of anger, so he quickly crawled forward two steps.

“Father, Yun Ce can explain about my four older brothers. The matter is…”

Before Qiu Yunce could finish speaking, he felt a powerful suction force, and his head was already gripped in Qiu Tianxiang's palm.

"If you dare say another word, your father will crush your head. Get out."

"puff……"

Qiu Yunce was thrown out again, spitting out blood.

"Yun Ce..."

"Blood Purple Rose" wanted to go forward to check on Qiu Yunce's injuries, but she heard a gust of wind from all around, and then a horrifying scene appeared: dozens of chains flew towards her from both sides.

"not good."

"Blood Purple Rose" quickly rolled over, successfully dodging the chains that were binding her, but those chains twisted in the air like venomous snakes, flashing with a cold light, and attacked her again.

"Damn it."

Xue Ziwei moved swiftly, narrowly escaping death several times, but the chains seemed to have eyes; no matter how she dodged, they always managed to catch her. Only then did Xue Ziwei realize what Qiu Yunce had said.

"My father is a god. How can man contend with a god?"

Just when "Blood Purple Rose" thought she was doomed, a series of hurried footsteps came from outside the door.

"Report, Imperial Preceptor, someone has broken into the Treasure Pavilion."

A guard rushed in, only to be caught off guard and have a chain tightly wrapped around his neck.

"ah……"

With a scream, the guard died on the spot.

"Blood Purple Rose" sighed deeply, but the chains suddenly snapped, and a chilling voice echoed through the air.

"You unfilial son, why aren't you coming with me right now?"

"yes."

Despite her injuries, Chu Yunmo followed Qiu Tianxiang.

"Consider yourself lucky. If it weren't for the thieves invading the palace, today would surely be your day of death."

Chu Xing snorted coldly and walked out of the main hall.

At this moment, only "Blood Purple Rose" remained in the hall. She couldn't help but look around.

"This is too bizarre. That old man was incredibly powerful. Could he be a reincarnation of a demon?"

"Catch the assassin! Quick, after him! He's over there..."

The shouts in the courtyard grew louder and louder, and closer and closer.

"Everyone has a sense of curiosity."

"Blood Purple Rose" was no exception; however, just as she reached the doorway, a sharp sword was pressed against her throat.

"Don't move! If you move again, I'll kill you!"

The man's voice was deep and pleasant, and for some reason, it felt familiar to her. She looked up blankly, and the man in black's sword fell to the ground instantly.

“Ziwei…”

The man's voice trembled, and then he pulled the woman into his arms...
