The foreigner stared at everyone with gloomy eyes, but his dry hands were tightly clasping Qingyue's neck.
This sudden change shocked everyone.
Feng Ling's expression changed drastically. "What do you want?"
He spoke coldly, closely watching the foreigner's every move.
The next moment, the ghost man laughed hoarsely, "I don't want anything else but her. All of you step back and make way for me, or I'll make her bleed to death."
The ghost said in a hoarse voice.
He was extremely excited now. He didn't expect that a murder four years ago would lead him to discover such a huge secret. It really seemed that God was helping him.
"Let her go, and I'll take her as your hostage."
Feng Ling, who was sitting in the wheelchair, said coldly with a gloomy face.
"Hehehe, it's her I want, Prince Yu, why are you joining in the fun here? Hmm? I'll say it again, everyone step back."
The ghost shouted hoarsely.
Everyone's face looked extremely ugly.
Chu Yan also stood up. He was seriously injured and there was no blood on his face. His dead eyes were fixed on the foreigner. The next moment, he grabbed Qing Yunyao. He used great force and pulled her, causing Qing Yunyao to scream.
She was stabbed so many times that she was shaking with pain every time she moved.
He had thought that he was doomed, but when he saw that his master had actually held Qin Wan hostage, he instantly became alert, his eyes bright, "Save me, Master, save me..."
She begged loudly.
The ghost man glanced at Qing Yunyao with gloomy eyes, "Waste, idiot."
He said disdainfully.
"If you want to kill her, go ahead. If I hadn't seen her as ambitious and selfish, why would I have chosen her as my apprentice? She's a piece of trash, without any talent at all. All she cares about is love and affection. What great things can she achieve?"
At this moment, the foreigner no longer pretended, and looked at Qing Yunyao with a gloomy and extremely disgusted look.
Qing Yunyao stood there stiffly, the light in her eyes gradually extinguished.
"master……"
She murmured.
But the foreigner seemed to feel that even looking at her was unnecessary, and his eyes were full of disgust.
Qing Yunyao was held in Chu Yan's arms, and the last breath she had held on to was lost in an instant. She looked at the people in the hall. No one cared about her life or death. They all looked at her with disgust. Even her master chose to abandon her at the most critical moment, calling her a waste and a fool.
Qing Yunyao suddenly felt that she was so ridiculous. In the end, she ended up like this.
"Master, you can't just leave me alone. You said you could bring me wealth and glory, everything I wanted. Now, you can't abandon me. I will die. They will kill me. You have hostages in your hands. They will not let us go. Master, please save me, save me."
Qing Yunyao cried and begged for truth.
The ghost man probably thought she was being noisy, and his sinister face was full of impatience. He glanced at her and said, "Didn't I give you everything you wanted? You wanted to be the eldest daughter of the Qing family, but haven't you replaced her for the past four years? You wanted that man Chu Yan, but didn't you marry him? Over the years, haven't you killed anyone who made you unhappy?"
The foreigner didn't say a word, but Qing Yunyao's face turned paler, and the people in the hall hated her even more.
Chu Yan grabbed Qing Yunyao's neck hard, making her face turn red and roll her eyes. This was a fatal move, but in the eyes of the foreigner, it didn't show any emotion at all. To him, Qing Yunyao's life or death didn't matter at all.
Chu Yan stared at Qing Yue intently, because Qin Wan had just said that Yue'er was still alive.
So Qin Wan is the only one who knows where Yue'er is.
We can’t let anything happen to her, we can’t let her be captured by the foreigners.
"I am your hostage, please let her go."
At this moment, Feng Ling's cold and icy voice sounded, his eyes full of suppressed grief as he stared at Qing Yue.
Qing Yue, who was being held by the foreigner, trembled. She turned her head to meet Feng Ling's eyes. Her already red eyes were suddenly filled with tears. She shook her head at him, unable to utter a word.
"What do I want you to do? I said I only want her. I'm saying this for the last time, get out of the way!"
The foreigner's patience was obviously running out. He sneered coldly and used some force to hold Qingyue's hand. Qingyue groaned and raised her neck.
The shadow guards will not give way without the order from the Emperor of Chu.
At this moment, the entire Golden Palace was surrounded by shadow guards, and the foreigner had no way to escape at all, but it was obvious that with Qing Yue as a hostage in his hand, he was not afraid at all.
"You damn old man, let Qin Wan go! If you dare to touch Qin Wan, you will never leave this palace alive."
Princess Pingyang was so angry that she shouted loudly with red eyes.
The ghost guy didn't even bother to give her a look, and just asked hoarsely, "Do you want her to die?"
He suddenly exerted force on his hand, and his long, curved and sharp nails immediately scratched a bloody mark on Qingyue's neck. Qingyue's face suddenly changed, and she groaned, and her whole body instantly lost strength. She was an expert in treating poisons, so she knew what had happened. The foreigner had hidden poison in his nails, and when it scratched the flesh, the poison entered her body.
"Wan'er."
Feng Ling cried out in surprise.
The wheelchair rolled forward two steps.
"Don't move. She's been poisoned by me. It won't take more than half an hour for the poison to take effect. It's hard to say whether she can survive by then. Are you sure you want to delay any longer?"
The ghost said sinisterly.
Everyone noticed the change in Qing Yue's expression and immediately realized that what the foreigner said was true.
Feng Ling's entire expression changed, his eyes filled with hatred and anger.
Chu Yan pushed Qing Yunyao away, his icy eyes as deep as a cold pond.
"Ghost man, do you think I was scared?"
At this moment, the Emperor of Chu shouted sternly, his face became very gloomy, and he stood up from his chair, looking down at the scene.
"You, a mere scoundrel, have intruded into the capital of the Great Zhou. You, in alliance with Qing Yunyao, have cast a terrifying net, manipulating everyone and harming my two children to this state. Do you think I will let you off so easily? I will sentence you to death. Your body will be hung on the city wall in the sun for ten days as a warning to others!"
Emperor Chu shouted angrily.
Everything that happened today has made him extremely angry. Qing Yunyao deserved it, but if it weren't for the culprit, Gui Lao, none of this would have happened.
This man is extremely dangerous. If he escapes, the entire capital of the Great Zhou will be in danger. The best way is to kill him in this Golden Palace.
Even if there are sacrifices.
"Haha, Emperor Chu, if you want to kill me, that depends on whether your two sons agree. Ask them, are they willing to let this girl die in my hands?"
