Si Jin smiled and beckoned two eunuchs over:
"Go and bring my carriage here, and escort the Empress back to the palace."
The Empress was somewhat alarmed and quickly lowered her head to refuse:
“Young Master Jin, the concubines who come here to pay their respects all walk back, but I…”
"It's alright, the prince in your womb is more important."
Si Jin had the palace maids, who had been waiting outside the palace with the Empress, help her onto the palanquin.
Then, he turned and left.
After taking a couple of steps, he seemed to suddenly remember something, turned back again, and added seemingly unintentionally:
"By the way, Your Highness was frightened today. In a few days, you should choose a time to go to Huguo Temple to pray for blessings. This will be good for the little prince."
Upon hearing this, the Empress instinctively relied on Si Jin and immediately asked:
"Then, Young Master Jin, when do you think would be an auspicious day?"
"I will go back and consult the oracle, and then let you know."
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, they saw the Empress off.
Having found a legitimate reason to go to Huguo Temple, Si Jin was no longer in a hurry to enter the hall.
He slowly turned his head, his beautiful eyes revealing the shrewdness of a hunter, and immediately locked onto Consort Li, who was peeking from behind the bushes.
A barrier instantly spread out from him, locking him and Consort Li inside.
Si Jin approached Consort Li step by step, each step carrying boundless killing intent:
"Your Highness, I just counted, you still have seven lives left!"
The young man in white had deep dimples, yet he was like a deadly ghost, leaving Consort Li with no way out!
For some reason, Si Jin was clearly smiling, but it made Consort Li's scalp tingle and her heart pound.
She screamed and backed away, but no matter which direction she ran in, she was bounced back by an invisible force!
Ultimately, he was trapped inside the barrier and forced to confront the jade-faced Grim Reaper before him.
Consort Li was terrified!
This shouldn't be happening!
According to her judgment, what trapped her was either a "ghost wall" or a higher-level spell!
Among the cat demon clan, only her father has the ability to create "ghost walls." Why would Yue Sijin, a useless person with no spiritual power, be able to do these things?!
Just as I was thinking this, my neck was suddenly grabbed.
As the feeling of suffocation overwhelmed her, Consort Li began to struggle desperately.
Unfortunately, before she could struggle for long, Si Jin's cat claws gently scratched her neck.
Si Jin's sharp claws pierced down from the neck, slowly peeling away Li Fei's skin and bones.
Consort Li's hair stood on end, and she let out a series of pitiful meows.
He struggled desperately to break free and kept calling for help.
But it didn't work!
Within the barrier was Si Jin's private territory; no one could see her miserable state, nor could anyone hear her cries for help.
Si Jin only stopped when the other person stopped breathing and had no more strength to struggle, a hint of disappointment flashing in his eyes.
He doesn't like killing people; it's too boring.
It's only interesting when the prey struggles.
He hoped that Consort Li would be reborn.
Si Jin threw Consort Li's body to the ground and looked at the bloodstains left on the cat's paws with some disgust.
I might as well go back to the palace and wash my hands.
After washing my hands, I was about to sit down at the table to drink tea when I noticed a few tiger hairs left in the teacup.
Si Jin: ...
He immediately pulled out Xiao Yao, who was diligently working in front of the main screen deep within his consciousness, and spoke righteously and sternly:
Did you use my teacup as a cat paw cup again?
Xiao Yao: [...]
Oh no! We've been discovered!
To avoid being scolded by the adults, it's best to run away first!
The little tiger bristled instantly, quickly dispersing the data and rushing back to its sea of consciousness.
Unfortunately, just as he touched the edge of his sea of consciousness, he was exposed by the barrier set up by Si Jin.
biu——
It fell back into Si Jin's hands in an instant.
Xiao Yao: [...]
It froze for a moment, then reacted and its fur stood on end.
After her initial outburst, she blinked innocently twice, attempting to argue her point:
【No, I didn't, I didn't steal the adult's cup, I...】
As she spoke, Si Jin plucked three hairs from her forehead.
Xiao Yao: 【】
