Chapter 484: Life for Life
After arriving at the Xinshu clan's palace, Xin Yue asked anxiously as soon as she saw Nangong Ruo, "Where is my brother's head?"
Nangong Ruo: "What? Isn't it enough that he's dead? Why do you still want his head?"
Xin Yue: "We didn't really kill him, we were just putting on a show for your brother. Tell me quickly, where is his head now?"
Nangong Ruo: "Don't try to lie to me. The dead cannot be resurrected. Even if Xin Hui died, I would never let you off easily. I will make you and Nangong Lan regret it for the rest of your lives."
Xin Yue: "Don't be impulsive, listen to me slowly... Hey, don't do anything stupid, don't..."
Before he could finish his words, Nangong Ruo had already slit his throat and committed suicide.
Xin Yue turned to Xin Yu and said, "What's going on?"
Xin Yu: "Don't ask anymore, just run away! He's really dead, and Nangong Yu will never let us go now."
Xin Yue: "Then...what about our brother?"
Xin Yu: "Him? Why would he care so much? We are in such a mess now, all because of that bastard. I'm rushing to Tianzhixing now, do you want to come with me?"
Xin Yue: "What do you mean now? I'm still pregnant with your child! You want to leave now? Do you want to abandon your wife and child?"
Xin Yu: "Didn't I ask you to go with me? What? Do you want to refuse? Then don't blame me for abandoning you."
Xin Yue: "I will never leave here unless I die."
Xin Yu: "Then I have no choice but to say goodbye to you!"
As expected, not long after Xin Yu left, Ziran fans joined forces with Duanmu Yanbin to attack the Xinshu tribe. Without Xin Yu, Xin Yue was unable to hold on alone and was clearly on the verge of defeat.
She had no choice but to ask Lao K for help again.
Old K shook his head after hearing Xin Yue's request.
"It's not that I don't want to help you, but your demands are too high. No amount of money can do this. The Xinshu tribe's demise is already set in stone. You alone can't possibly turn the tide."
"Old K, can't you help me? I can agree to anything you ask."
"Xin Yue, forget it. Everyone has seen your current condition. You don't have anything valuable on you anymore. What price can you pay? Let's go. I don't want to humiliate a pregnant woman anymore."
Seeing that he was unwilling to help, Xin Yue had to leave in shame. Not long after she left the bar, she was caught up by Xiangzi.
Xiangzi: "I heard everything you said just now."
Xin Yue rubbed her eyes and said helplessly, "You're not here to humiliate me too, are you? Didn't your companion make it very clear just now? He's right, I'm penniless now. Even if you can help me, I have nothing to offer you."
Xiangzi: "Can you really agree to anything I ask for? Even if it means sacrificing your most precious thing?"
Xin Yue: "What do you mean?"
Xiangzi stared at her belly for a long time and said quietly, "Even if I wanted your child's life, would you still be willing to sacrifice it?"
Xin Yue: "I thought you really wanted to help me, but it turns out you're planning to take my child away. Forget it."
Xiangzi: "You better think it over carefully. Now that you have signed a contract with me, you can still propose more conditions, but if it's too late, don't blame me for being too harsh."
Xin Yue: "As long as it involves my child, you'd better give up that idea! Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. No mother would risk her own child."
Xiangzi: "When the time comes, you won't even be able to protect your own life, so how can you care about your child? Listen to me! Making a decision as soon as possible will be good for both you and your child."
Xin Yue: "You damn witch, stop spreading rumors here. If I hadn't been too busy dealing with you, you would have been torn to pieces long ago."
After saying that, she left very angrily.
Xiangzi sighed as he watched Xinyue's receding figure, "You'll come begging me again."
Xin Yue led her people to fight to the death with the Ziyu tribe and Duanmu Yanbin's army, but was eventually defeated. Seeing that she had no chance of survival, she could only drag her wounded body back to her palace and wait for death.
Just when Xin Yue was about to close her eyes, Xiangzi appeared in front of her again.
Xin Yue seemed to have found a life-saving straw. Her strong desire to survive made her reach out to Xiangzi and said weakly: "Xiangzi, save me... please..."
"I told you not to blame me for making harsh conditions when the time comes. I gave you enough opportunities."
"Xiangzi, as long as you can restore my country for me, I can give you everything... including my children..."
Xin Yue touched her belly, looking very reluctant.
"At this point, are you still thinking about restoring your country and becoming your queen? If you had agreed last time, I could have done it. But... now you're just dreaming! You're lucky to be alive."
The sounds of fighting outside were getting closer and closer.
Xiangzi: "I'll give you one last chance. How about using your child's soul in exchange for your life? Otherwise, I'll take the child out now and take her away. Anyway, I can only save one of you. If you delay any longer, I really won't be able to help you at all."
Xin Yue was spitting out blood. She had no choice at all. If she died, her child would naturally die, but she was really unwilling to give her own daughter to someone else to raise.
"I would give my child's soul in exchange for my own life."
"I didn't force you. This is your own choice."
Xin Yue gritted her teeth and said, "This is my own decision. It has nothing to do with anyone else. Please save me quickly! Otherwise, I'm afraid I will regret it."
Xiangzi just smiled, and Xinyue suddenly lost consciousness.
When she arrived, she found herself in a strange place and her previously bulging belly had long since flattened. She couldn't help feeling sad and tears flowed down her face.
Xiangzi, standing by, could only comfort her, saying, "Don't be sad. You are still young and you will have children in the future."
Xin Yue: "The child's father is a coward. He abandoned us a long time ago and we ran away. I don't want to have children with anyone else anymore. Xiangzi, I don't ask for my daughter's life to be saved, I just ask you to set her free, okay? Don't let her soul be imprisoned in your hands forever. Otherwise, I will have a guilty conscience for the rest of my life."
Xiangzi: "This is simply impossible. You can only cancel the contract if you can find another soul who is willing to replace your daughter."
Xin Yue: "I will definitely fulfill my promise and come back to rescue my daughter. Now please send me back to Earth!"
Xiangzi: "Why don't you go to Tianzhixing?"
Xin Yue: "My brother must have gone to Tianzhixing. I don't want to see him again."
Xiangzi: "Okay, I'll send you to Earth now. Come back to me after you've established yourself there!"
