Chapter 222 Sui'er's tragic death, Luo'er kills the murderer!
Li Kechuan glared at Li Qingluo with bloodshot eyes and roared angrily.
When Li Qingluo saw that Sui'er had become his hostage, he finally slowed down.
She put on an innocent face: "Brother, what are you talking about? Luo'er can't understand a single word."
"It's true that Sui'er and I were once sisters, but I suffered all kinds of bullying from the Liu family. I wish she were dead. How could I possibly conspire with her to plot against you?"
"Brother, do you really think I would be so cunning as to plot against you as soon as I returned home...?"
Li Kechuan wavered, but Liu Qingzhu shook him anxiously: "Brother, don't listen to her, she's lying! If they weren't related, why would Sui'er be in her carriage? And why was she so eager to come and rescue her!"
Li Kechuan instantly snapped to his senses: "It was you! Li Qingluo, you are cunning, treacherous, and ruthless. You did all of this!"
Li Qingluo sighed.
“I told you it wasn’t me… Why won’t you believe me? I only captured Liu Sui’er because I saw her escape down the mountain alone, and I wanted to torture her severely. Is that not allowed?”
"After all, she's carrying your child."
“Brother, you, Father, and Mother wanted to force Grandmother to her death. Grandmother is the most important person in my heart, and naturally I also want to force your child to his death as revenge. This is the real me—”
Upon hearing these words, Liu Sui'er shook her head and wept incessantly.
Tears streamed down his cheeks and down his neck, quickly soaking one of Li Kechuan's hands.
He recoiled as if he had been burned.
"baby?"
Li Kechuan's gaze finally fell on Liu Suier's stomach.
However, at that moment, Li Qingluo's eyes suddenly hardened, and he raised his hand and shot a hidden arrow toward Li Kechuan's throat.
In a panic, Li Kechuan turned slightly, and the hidden arrow pierced his shoulder blade.
Li Kechuan was hit by an arrow, and in pain, he completely loosened his grip.
"Li Qingluo, do you really want to kill me?!"
Li Qingluo: "You only found out today? Isn't that a bit too late!"
"Liu Sui'er, what are you standing there for!"
Liu Sui'er quickly got up from the ground and ran towards Li Qingluo.
Li Qingluo reached out, but Liu Qingzhu caught up and grabbed Liu Suier.
Just then, Zheng Lingzhou, having broken free from Prince Su's grasp, ran towards Li Qingluo covered in blood—
"Luo'er, come with me!"
"I will explain everything to you!"
Li Qingluo was grabbed by Zheng Lingzhou, but she retaliated by thrusting her sword forward, saying, "Zheng Lingzhou, we are not on the same path, and we are destined never to walk together!"
The two then resumed their fight.
Li Qingluo just wanted to get rid of Zheng Lingzhou's entanglement as soon as possible. On the other side, Prince Su was also entangled with more than a dozen of Zheng Lingzhou's men, who were quite skilled.
Seeing Li Qingluo being chased away, Liu Qingzhu seized the opportunity to grab Liu Suier and cursed, "You shameless slut! I'm going to tell the Liu family everything you've done, and they'll break your legs!"
As if provoked, Liu Sui'er suddenly reached out and grabbed Liu Qingzhu's shoulder tightly, shouting, "I'm a slut?! Didn't you ruin me?!"
"If you had tolerated me back then and hadn't let Liu Jinzhi ruin my face, how could Liu Jinzhi have sold me into a brothel?!"
"I hate you, Liu Qingzhu! I hate you so much!!"
“I’m going to destroy everything you have, so I slept with your brother using this face that looks exactly like yours, making you a target of the scandal of incest! I’m going to destroy everything you think you have—”
"ah!"
Before Liu Suier could finish speaking, Liu Jinzhi, who had somehow untied her bound hands, picked up a knife from the ground and forcefully stabbed Liu Suier's body.
Liu Qingzhu covered her face and screamed, "Ah!!!"
Liu Jinzhi chuckled, "I didn't do it. I didn't sell you into a brothel. It wasn't me, it wasn't me!"
"Sui'er, you can't lie, Sui'er. I'm your aunt, Sui'er... Haha, hahahaha..."
Liu Jinzhi jumped and danced around like a madwoman, chanting something under her breath.
Hearing the noise, Li Qingluo turned her head to look in this direction.
She shouted, "Sui'er—"
Li Qingluo no longer cared about Zheng Lingzhou and ran wildly towards them without regard for anything else.
Sparrow and Oriole rushed forward, desperately trying to block Zheng Lingzhou.
Li Qingluo ran wildly toward Sui'er, while Liu Qingzhu quickly pushed Li Kechuan away.
Li Qingluo shot out a hidden arrow, which struck Liu Qingzhu in the buttocks.
Liu Qingzhu screamed and collapsed to the ground.
Li Kechuan was still in a daze because of what happened to Liu Suier, but when he heard Liu Qingzhu's scream, he quickly pulled her up.
"What are you standing there for?! Get out of here!"
Li Kechuan roared, and the servants and maids who had been hiding rushed out and carried the two of them away in a hurry.
Li Qingluo, sword in hand, wanted to chase after them and kill them all, but was stopped by Liu Sui'er's shout.
"Sister..."
Li Qinglu gritted her teeth, then heard Liu Suier call out to her again, "Sister... talk to me for a bit..."
Li Qingluo rushed over, and when she saw Liu Suier lying in a pool of blood, tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
"Sister..."
Liu Suier saw her cry, but she laughed instead.
"I knew it... what you just said... was just to mislead them... You care about me, don't you..."
Li Qingluo watched as Sui'er kept spitting out blood, and she kept wiping it away with her hands.
In no time, her jaw and neck were covered in blood.
"Sui'er, stop talking..."
Li Qingluo picked up Liu Suier and held her in his arms. Liu Suier looked down at her stomach.
"What a pity... I couldn't give birth to this child..."
"However... he is Li Kechuan's bloodline... perhaps it would be a good thing if he died with me..."
"With a father who is such a scumbag and disgusting, and a mother like me with a questionable past... even if he came into this world, he would be looked down upon and scorned by everyone..."
Li Qingluo: "Sui'er, stop talking!! I'm so sorry... I failed to protect you!"
Liu Suier raised her hand and wiped away Li Qingluo's tears.
“No, it is our Liu family that has wronged you… If it weren’t for my grandmother’s selfishness back then, you wouldn’t have suffered all this pain, injustice, and hardship…”
"But sister, do you know that when we were little, I really liked you a lot..."
"My aunt said that you should be our family's servant, and we don't need to be polite to you..."
"Grandma told me not to get too close to you..."
"One day, you will become our mortal enemy..."
"It was because I was so immature before... I couldn't distinguish right from wrong and followed them in doing so many bad things to you..."
"But look, sister... I've finally found you again..."
As she spoke, Liu Sui'er's eyes began to glaze over and lose their focus.
Li Qingluo: "I will save you, don't be afraid..."
Liu Sui'er gave a pale smile: "I know... it's no use..."
"Sister, the sky in our mountains is bluer than here..."
"That night you found me in the mountains, the stars in the sky were more numerous than those in Nanjing... brighter than those in Nanjing city..."
"Why are the people of Jinling City so cruel... that my aunt, who has always loved me, would turn on me and ruin me completely..."
"These people beat me and scolded me... but nobody cares about me..."
Li Qingluo hugged Liu Suier tightly: "I don't hate you, I really don't hate you. I forgave you a long time ago. If you live, I'll help you raise your child. I'll take your child to his grandmother so he can enjoy endless blessings in the future!"
Sui'er laughed, "It's a pity it's too late..."
"Sister, please promise me... if one day you want to take revenge on the Liu family... please spare Mother's life..."
"She cares about you... but she's just like me... cowardly and easily bullied, and powerless to do anything..."
"I really want to go back to the mountains... If only I hadn't come to Jinling..."
Liu Sui'er, her eyes wide open, breathed her last, her body and face covered in blood.
Liu Jinzhi was still jumping and clapping her hands, laughing, "No one will know this secret anymore. I never sold Sui'er for that money, Father and Brother will forgive me. Hehehe, hahaha..."
Li Qingluo slowly put Liu Suier down from her arms.
She picked up the sword from the ground and swiftly stabbed Liu Jinzhi.
Liu Jinzhi turned her head and stared at Li Qingluo with disbelief.
"You...you...you killed me...?"
Li Qingluo gripped the sword hilt and twisted it inside Liu Jinzhi's body: "I should have killed you long ago! I kept you in this world to disgust the Liu family and Liu Qingzhu, but I never expected that you would repeatedly harm Sui'er!"
"Liu Jinzhi, you don't deserve to be called a human being. Go down and apologize to Sui'er!"
Li Qingluo drew his sword. Liu Jinzhi, clutching her stomach where her internal organs were constantly slipping out, cried out incessantly, "I won't die! I won't die! I still want to enjoy wealth and luxury—I won't die, ah—"
She tried to escape, but after only two steps, she slipped and rolled on the ground because of her own intestines.
Liu Jinzhi could no longer get up. Looking at Li Qingluo behind her, she felt as if she had seen the King of Hell coming to claim her life, and she screamed incoherently.
Li Qingluo walked over step by step, watching her struggle in her death throes with a blank expression.
Liu Jinzhi lay on the ground, but after a few twitches, she breathed her last.
Seeing her kill, Zheng Lingzhou knew that even if he risked his life today, he couldn't take Li Qingluo away in her rage and berserk state.
He turned to look at the few remaining cult members behind him, then gritted his teeth and shouted, "Retreat—!"
Duan Rongshi: "Don't even think about it!"
He would not give these Lotus Sect followers any chance to escape today. With a wave of his hand, all the guards immediately used their ultimate moves to slaughter all the remaining followers.
Duan Rongshi then walked towards Zheng Lingzhou.
"What exactly are you trying to get out of her?"
Zheng Lingzhou leaped and hung on a tree, glaring menacingly at Prince Su before bursting into wild laughter.
"Plotting? In the eyes of His Highness Prince Su, who is ruthless and merciless, is there not a trace of true feeling in the world?"
Duan Rongshi: "True feelings? What are true feelings in the eyes of your Lotus Cult? In the name of your so-called equality for all living beings, you have repeatedly slaughtered innocent civilians. Is that true love and compassion?"
As he spoke, Duan Rongshi reached for the curved sword at his waist.
Zhui Yu and the others also came over with predatory eyes, preparing to surround Zheng Lingzhou.
Zheng Lingzhou, standing on high ground, had a clear view of the entire situation.
He snorted coldly, flicked his sleeve, and sent a dart flying towards Li Qingluo's location.
