After hearing Mo Shisheng's whereabouts, Ming Beiya's face darkened completely, and the storm brewing in his eyes seemed to tear the curtain apart.
He put the cage back on the table and strode confidently toward the study.
On the way, they encountered Shangguan Murou and Fang Ruo. Upon seeing Ming Beiya heading straight for the study, Shangguan Murou gave Fang Ruo a wink, and Fang Ruo immediately understood and turned to go to the study.
Shangguan Murou stepped forward to block Ming Beiya's path and bowed, saying, "Grand Preceptor, are you here to see my father?"
"roll."
Ming Beiya coldly glanced at the woman standing in front of him, and uttered the word "get lost" without any mercy from his thin lips.
Shangguan Murou's face flushed red and then paled, but having seen it all before, she managed to conceal her emotions well, chuckling lightly, "Why is the Imperial Advisor so angry?"
Are you going to get out or not?
Seeing that the woman blocking his way showed no intention of moving aside, Ming Beiya spoke coldly, his dark eyes revealing neither joy nor anger.
Even so, Shangguan Murou was still so frightened that her face turned pale and she stood aside, no longer daring to block Ming Beiya's path.
When Jiang Ge and Jiang Yao returned to the manor, they saw this scene. Both of them had bluish-gray eyes. They hadn't rested much in the past few days. Without knowing Mo Shisheng's whereabouts, it was impossible for them to sleep soundly.
Before they knew what Ming Beiya was going to do in the study, they could only hurry and follow him. Their intuition told them that it must be related to Mo Shisheng!
Shangguan Murou's legs went weak with fear at Ming Beiya's presence. When she saw Ming Beiya enter the study, a ruthless glint appeared in her eyes. Since they were courting death, then they shouldn't blame her!
In the basement of the study.
The atmosphere remained quiet for a long time. Shangguan Leiting seemed to be tired and stopped whipping the victim.
Mo Shisheng gently stuck out her tongue and licked the corner of her lips, tasting something warm, and smiled faintly.
Hearing the laughter, Shangguan Leiting suddenly looked up and glared at her, "What are you laughing at? After tonight, I'll send you to the Situ Kingdom in exchange for my son's safe return!"
"Grandpa really is true to himself."
Mo Shisheng spoke calmly, "The Situ Kingdom is not a place you can simply go to."
Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in Shangguan Leiting's cloudy eyes. "Once your identity is revealed to the public, the people of Situ Kingdom will naturally release my son!"
"Who am I, really?"
Mo Shisheng sighed softly. For the past three days, she had been locked up here, not knowing whether it was day or night. The only question she could think about was her own background.
This is really confusing... Who exactly is she?
"You're a bastard! You're..."
"My lord! The Imperial Advisor has arrived! He's here! He's here! Ah!!"
Fang Ruo rushed in, but before she could finish her sentence, her body slammed against the wall like a kite with a broken string, leaving a trail of crimson blood on the wall with a loud bang.
Hearing the commotion, Shangguan Leiting immediately turned around. Upon seeing who it was, he walked to Mo Shisheng's side, tightly wrapped one end of the whip around her neck, and held the other end in his hand.
Mo Shisheng was covered in wounds, and there wasn't a single patch of undamaged skin on her face, but that didn't affect her appearance.
The person approached from behind, like a celestial being descending to earth. Upon seeing this scene, she smiled slightly and said, "I've been waiting for you."
