Chapter 85 One wave subsides, another rises



“I respect him. He should already know I’m missing and will find me here soon. Of course…” Yuwen An chuckled, “If you’re alright in the meantime.”

Xie Lingqin sneered, "I won't take it."

"Then we have no choice but to..."

A flash of sword light appeared.

Yuwen An raised his hand and, almost without any room for negotiation, sheathed his longsword.

Ning Yi's arm began to bleed.

"Hopefully you can eat this before he bleeds out."

Seeing Ning Yi's blood gushing out, Yuwen An acted as if nothing had happened, shrugging his shoulders in utter shamelessness.

"Sister, don't worry about me, I'll be fine, I won't die."

Despite her young age and mental impairment, Ning Yi faced death with unwavering resolve, gazing at Xie Lingqin with stubborn determination.

"I know you and your emperor are secretly fighting today. To be honest, I support you. After all, I don't like that emperor either. But to be honest, I don't like you either, so..."

"Okay, I'll take it."

Xie Lingqin glanced around, poured out the pills from the medicine bottle, and swallowed them.

"I need to wait for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea to make sure the medicine has dissolved in your stomach before I release it."

Yuwen Andao narrowed his long, phoenix-shaped eyes slightly, revealing a cold glint in them, displaying extreme caution.

"Let's stop Ning Yi's bleeding first."

"Can."

Yu Yu'an raised his hand and stopped Ning Yi's bleeding.

Almost instantly, Xie Lingqin moved like lightning, heading straight for Ning Yi. She grabbed Ning Yi, but in that split second, Xie Lingqin, who was about to vomit the medicine, paused.

Because Yuwen An reacted faster than she expected, he didn't stop her from grabbing Ning Yi, but instead patted her on the back.

The pressure was neither too light nor too heavy, yet it forced her to swallow the medicine that was in her throat.

Now he couldn't vomit even if he wanted to.

"asshole."

Xie Lingqin shouted angrily, ducked down, and immediately fled with Ning Yi.

At that moment, Zihe also sensed it. She knocked on the door, but there was no response from inside, so she went inside. Looking at the open window, she felt uneasy. Finally, she came looking for Ning and immediately released her pressure points.

But how could she possibly defeat Yuwen An?

"Considering that you used to bring me meals when you were in the Crown Prince's residence, I will spare your life."

In the dead of night, Yuwen An exuded a murderous aura. He said he would spare Zihe's life, but his powerful palm strike caused Zihe to spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Hurry up."

As Yuwen An reached for her, Xie Lingqin forcefully pushed Zihe and Ning Yi away, saying, "Go find the Crown Prince."

Zihe was seriously injured; that palm strike was enough to take half her life. Ning Yi was also affected by the force of Yuwen Feng's palm strike, and she was not much better off, not to mention that she was bleeding from her arm.

He wanted to rescue Xie Lingzhu, but Zihe grabbed him, saying, "Let's go find the Crown Prince."

She believed in her mistress's abilities, and that if the two of them were here, they would only become a hindrance to her.

However, Zihe was unaware that Xie Lingqin had just taken the Spring Passion Intensive.

Ning wanted to speak, but due to her mental impairment, she didn't understand the concept of passionate love. By the time she spoke, they were already quite far behind them, and the two of them had to hurry back.

Inside the dilapidated temple, the fire was still burning, and the pheasant was being roasted, its aroma tinged with the stench of blood. But with the wind blowing against the broken windows, there was no sign of Xie Lingqin or Yuwen An.

Zihe knew perfectly well what "spring passion" meant. His face was terribly dark, his eyes were tightly furrowed, and his fingertips were so tight that they drew blood from his palms.

If anything were to happen to the young lady, she…

Despite his severe injuries, Zihe mustered all his inner strength and attempted to transmit his voice over a thousand miles.

However, he coughed up a mouthful of blood and fainted.

"Sister Zihe, Sister Zihe."

Ning tried to push her, but Zihe was already unconscious.

Ning Yi's face was stiff, her eyes flashing, unsure of what to do next.

But a figure was inexplicably approaching, approaching, and approaching again.

Ning looked up at the person who had come in. He recognized him, and his face immediately turned angry. "You are not allowed to come near me."

"Hmph, overestimating themselves. Men, take them away."

"yes."

...

Under the moonlight, Xie Lingqin was carried by Yuwen An through the woods and across the grass. Xie Lingqin was so dazed that she had no idea where she was.

It felt like a fire was burning inside her, threatening to burst her apart.

This taste...

"broken."

Yuwen An suddenly stopped what he was doing, and before Xie Lingqin could even realize where she was, he threw her heavily to the ground.

A cold wind blew, and Xie Lingqin winced in pain. Her arm slammed against a large rock, and the sound of bones breaking could be heard. The jade bracelet on her wrist, once a gift from the Empress, had just shattered with a loud crack.

It shimmered with condensed fragments of light under the moonlight.

"This was a gift from the Empress," Xie Lingqin said, her expression grim.

"It's okay if it breaks; it just means you're not suitable." Yuwen An didn't seem to care.

Xie Lingqin took a deep breath and glared at Yuwen An. "You're really despicable. How could you find such a deserted place?"

"Oh, you're overthinking it."

Yuwen An chuckled coldly, a wicked glint in his phoenix eyes. "I won't do anything to you. I won't let Yuwen Yao hate or blame me. As for you, just wait here to die. Hmm, wild beasts often roam around here. Of course, if you're lucky enough to actually run into a man, you should thank God..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yuwen An clapped his hands, smiled, and walked away with complete ease.
