Before Xie Lingqin fainted, it was broad daylight; when she woke up, the crescent moon was already high in the sky.
There was no one around, only the sound of the wind, and... a chilling roar howling in the distance.
Xie Lingqin moved her fingers. Fortunately, she could move; the other party hadn't acupunctured her.
However, this is the most terrifying thing, because it means that the other party is certain that she cannot escape his grasp.
Moreover, this person...
Xie Lingqin looked around and then let out a heavy sigh.
There were trees all around.
There was no one around.
How is my brother?
Xie Lingqin asked into the air.
"Hehehe..."
It was that chilling laughter before he lost consciousness; the first time you heard it, it sent shivers down your spine.
Then, in the darkness, under a sliver of moonlight, a head peeked out from the treetop above, a cool smile on its face.
He possessed the same noble and snow-white face as Yuwen Yao, and the same tall and slender figure as Yuwen Yao.
His facial features, eyebrows, eyes, and even the gesture of raising an eyebrow are exactly the same as Yuwen Yao's.
"Were you the one who secretly followed me before I entered the palace?"
Xie Lingqin asked, her brows furrowed.
The man chuckled softly, then with a graceful tuck of his long legs, he slid down from the tree and stood in front of Xie Lingqin.
"I've observed you many times."
The man said that his voice was a bit rougher and thinner than Yuwen Yao's.
Apart from their auras and the light in their eyes, he was almost identical to Yu Yao.
But he is not Yuwen Yao.
"You're so smart, no wonder he likes you."
The man approached Xie Lingqin, his icy breath brushing against her face, a chilling light gleaming in his eyes. "But you are not good enough for him."
Xie Lingqin's face darkened. "How can it not be that he's not good enough for me?"
"A woman like you, with no breasts and no butt, he might like you, but he's never loved you before, so it's just a passing fancy."
That disdain and contempt is unmistakable.
Xie Lingqin's eyelids twitched, and she took a step back warily. "You are..."
“I’m his younger brother. Don’t we look exactly alike?”
"So, the Empress really did give birth to twins back then."
Xie Lingqin's words were true. After meeting Prince Yong, she deliberately investigated. Although she only found some clues and very little about the royal family, it was enough.
After all, the gene for twins is very powerful.
However, since Yuwen Yao didn't say anything, she didn't want to ask.
"Then, why did you kidnap me here?" Xie Lingqin asked sternly.
"Kill you, kill you, and he'll belong to me alone, and he'll be with me forever."
"He, Yu Wenyao."
"Hehehe..."
The man was handsome and beautiful, yet his eyes held a sinister glint, and when he smiled, he truly resembled a devil from hell.
Tell me, how is my brother?
"Oh, I don't know. Anyway, when I was taking you away, I saw a sword held to his neck. Tinghai, is that his name? He wanted to help, but someone stabbed him in the dark. Originally..."
The man rested his chin on his hands, seemingly quite amused. "He could have dodged it, but I thought it would be fun. I figured I should add to the excitement of murder, so I helped him out. And then, Tinghai collapsed..."
"Are you crazy?"
Xie Lingqin felt absolutely no liking for this face that resembled Yuwen Yao's. At this moment, if she didn't know that her strength was vastly different from his, she would have definitely killed him.
Yes, after transmigrating here, besides Xie Lingyu and Yuwen Xian, at this moment, she wants to kill Yu Fangyao's younger brother.
But she held back, trying her best to keep a calm tone, "Then, are my brother and Tinghai dead?"
"ah!"
The man suddenly cupped his face in his hands in a cute way and said, "Well, I don't know. How about I take you back to have a look?"
Xie Lingqin frowned, "You're so kind."
"Of course not, because Yuwen Yao must be looking for you everywhere right now. But don't worry, he won't find this place."
As the man spoke, he pressed closer step by step, his phoenix eyes flashing with a cold light like a hawk's, making Xie Lingqin's blood freeze.
Then, he saw the man's eyes suddenly turn as if a storm had gathered, and he put his finger to his lips and let out a howl towards the sky.
"Awooo—"
He received a response almost instantly.
That surging, dangerous, rampant, and desolate aura approached in an instant.
A dozen or so wolves were surrounding her.
In the darkness, it gleamed with a bright light, scanning its prey.
“They are all raised by me, and Yuwen Yao has no idea. Besides, they have been starving for several days.”
The man smiled and then stepped back.
His lightness skill was superb, and he moved with the grace of a willow branch. One moment he was right in front of me, and the next he was a hundred meters away.
That lightness skill...
No wonder Tinghai hadn't noticed his presence before.
"By the way, my name is Yuwen An."
The man's voice came from afar, rustling the leaves.
"Yuwen An, I am your sister-in-law, you shouldn't treat me like this."
Xie Lingqin was furious because she reached into her sleeve to take the dagger Yuwen Yao had given her, but it wasn't there.
In a blink of an eye, it was in Yu Fang'an's hands.
They tried to retrieve the small crossbow, but found nothing.
Turning his head, he saw Yuwen An playing with it with a cold smile, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
He deliberately wanted her to die here.
Even worse, they won't die a good death.
