Just as Leng Yu and Zhang Yuan were about to step forward to help, Leng Xi turned around and snatched the sword from An An's hand. He held the hilt of the sword, pointed it at her throat, and shouted:
"You little bitch, you have such little skills, and you dare to attack your fifth uncle."
Seeing this, Lele and Yicheng stood there at a loss, not daring to move, for fear that Lengxi's sword would hurt An An.
Even though the sword was pressed against her throat, An An looked at him without fear.
"You can kill me or make me a widow, it's up to you. If you don't kill me today, I will kill you in the future."
Leng Xi curled his lips and turned to look at Luo Lan.
"Take the imperial seal in exchange for the child's life."
Liu Dechang pointed at him angrily.
"Lengxi, your Xiwang Mansion has been surrounded. You should surrender immediately."
Leng Xi raised his eyebrows indifferently.
"Master Liu, don't scare me with this. Do you think I'm a reckless man? Would I do this without any preparation?"
As he spoke, he raised his eyebrows, and countless archers suddenly appeared on the upstairs, with their bows and arrows ready to be shot, pointing directly at Leng Yu and others.
Seeing this scene, Leng Xi laughed triumphantly.
"Hahaha, as long as I give the order, you will all die here. Liu Luolan, quickly hand over the jade seal. Perhaps, I can leave you with an intact body."
He said this so arrogantly that in a hurry, Luo Lan suddenly thought of the silver needle technique that Leng Yu taught her, so she took out the silver needle from the operating room, threw it with her backhand, and went straight to Leng Xi's wrist.
At the same time, Leng Xi suddenly felt his hand go limp and the sword in his hand fell to the ground. An An quickly picked up the sword and put it against Leng Xi's throat.
This sudden reversal caught everyone present off guard.
Luo Lan took a breath of cold air and shook her head to stop him.
"An An, no, don't kill him."
Leng Xi felt a sharp pain in his wrist, but he still gritted his teeth and stared at the sword tip that was pointing at his throat, raising his head arrogantly.
"Hmph, in that case, let's die together today!"
A look of hatred appeared in An An's eyes. She turned her wrist and brought the tip of the sword one step closer to Leng Xi's throat.
She turned to look at Leng Yu,
"Dad, you guys go first."
Leng Yu frowned directly.
"An An, if we have to leave, we should leave together as a family."
"Dad, Mom, you raised me for thirteen years. Now it's time for me to do something for you. Go away."
Luo Lan looked at An An and shook his head vigorously.
"An An, you can't kill him."
"Why? Mother, I know you have a kind heart, but he has done countless evil things. A man like him should not be kept."
"Mother knows he deserves to die, but you shouldn't be the one to kill her. Listen to me, come here quickly, and be obedient..."
"Mom, the harm he caused me has left a shadow in my heart. I often have nightmares, dreaming that he wants to kill me. Over the years, I have practiced diligently, just so that one day, I can personally kill this good fifth uncle who is determined to kill me."
Luo Lan suddenly saw a murderous look in An An's eyes, which made her shudder.
She shook her head vigorously.
"An An, you can't kill him..."
"Why can't I? Mother, I can kill him right now, why are you stopping me?"
An An's voice was hysterical and full of confusion.
Just when An An was distracted, Leng Xi suddenly pulled out the silver needle in his hand, then jumped up from the ground, and with lightning speed, he clamped An An's wrist with his backhand, and then put the long sword in her hand on her neck.
This scene made everyone present gasp in shock. Luo Lan looked at An An in horror.
"Lengxi, let An An go. Let her go."
An An looked at Luo Lan with anger and confusion.
"Mom, you didn't let me kill him, and now he wants to kill me. Are you satisfied?"
An An's words tore Luo Lan's heart into pieces.
She bit her lips tightly, looked at Leng Xi, and shouted with all her strength:
"Lengxi, let An An go, let her go."
At this time, Xiaobao and Yu Qiaoqiao ran out from the crowd. Xiaobao's eyes were red, and he knelt on the ground.
"Dad, please stop. Our Xiwang Mansion has everything we need. Why do you insist on having the throne? I beg you, please don't hurt An An, don't hurt Fourth Uncle's family, and don't fight for the throne anymore. It's really not suitable for you."
"roll."
Leng Xi yelled at Xiao Bao angrily, then looked at Yu Qiaoqiao.
"Take him back to his room."
Yu Qiaoqiao ignored his yelling, she came to Xiaobao and knelt down, begging with tears in her eyes,
"Leng Xi, don't make the same mistake over and over again. What you're doing is treasonous and against the will of heaven. Do you want to have hundreds of people in the Xi Palace taken to Caishikou and beheaded? Do you want Xiaobao to be beheaded before he even sees all the beauty in this world? Do you think you can succeed? Our Xi Palace has been surrounded. Even if you get the jade seal today, you won't be able to become the emperor. Stop dreaming and wake up!"
"Shut up, I'll be the emperor, and the position of queen will be yours, don't you want it?"
"No, I don't want to be a queen. Put down your sword now and admit your mistake to Prince Yu. He will spare you because of your brotherhood. I don't care about anything else. I just want our family to be together and live peacefully for the rest of our lives."
At this time, Leng Xi had obviously lost his patience. He gritted his teeth and looked at Yu Qiaoqiao.
"Go away, you womanizer."
Seeing that no one could convince Leng Xi, Leng Yu once again raised his voice to remind him,
"Lengxi, release An An. If you have the guts, let's fight one-on-one. If you defeat me, the throne and the imperial seal will be yours."
"Hahaha……"
Leng Xi suddenly raised his head and laughed, and the sword in his hand pointed directly at An An's throat. Blood instantly flowed out of An An's neck.
"Leng Yu, don't try to play tricks on me. I'm just asking you, which is more important, your daughter or the throne? I'll only give you three counts."
Leng Yu's face turned ashen at this moment. He clenched his fists tightly and wanted to rush forward to save An An, but he was afraid that the sword in Leng Xi's hand would really hurt An An.
"Lengxi, please don't hurt her. I can give you the imperial seal and make you the emperor. Put the sword away first."
"Want to play a trick on me? Humph, hand over the jade seal first."
However, An An shouted very firmly at this moment:
"Dad, don't give it to him. I'm not afraid of death. If this evil man really becomes emperor, then Daning Kingdom will be finished. Don't give him the jade seal."
"Stinky girl, don't you want to live?"
Leng Xi's sword moved inward again, but Luo Lan's heart was in her throat at this moment. She wanted to tell Leng Xi that An An was his daughter and he could not hurt her.
She has kept this secret for thirteen years, but if she tells it now, An An will definitely not be able to accept it.
If I don’t tell him, what if Leng Xi really hurts An An?
At this moment, she was extremely conflicted.
