Hei Xiangling suddenly felt bored and was about to go back to her room to rest when Feng Che came looking for her.
"Isn't Jiu'er in the courtyard?"
"That brat has been acting strangely all day. I just saw her go out and asked her a question, and she dared to give me a dirty look. What a heartless girl."
Hei Xiangling said resentfully. Feng Che's expression narrowed slightly. This shouldn't be the case. Based on his understanding of Jiu'er, Jiu'er would not suddenly become indifferent to those around her.
Did Jiu'er say where she went?
"No."
"That's strange. Jiu'er usually tells us when she goes out so as not to worry those around her..." Feng Che asked again, "You just said that she's acting strangely during the day, what's going on?"
Hei Xiangling recounted to Feng Che how she had discovered the people hiding in the shadows during the day, but she made no mention of Ji Jiuying meeting the Third Prince, which led Feng Che to misunderstand his father.
After hearing what Hei Xiangling said, Feng Che immediately thought of Feng Cang.
Enraged, Hei Xiangling realized something was wrong.
"Second Master, I hope nothing bad has happened to that brat."
"Find her location quickly."
Murong Zheng, who had already fallen asleep, smelled a familiar scent nearby, but it quickly disappeared and faded.
The only person who could make his blood boil was her. Soon he followed the scent to a manor, but before he could enter, a ghostly figure with only its eyes showing blocked his way.
The two quickly started fighting.
Qi Yeyue Tower.
A dark figure appeared in the room.
"Master, we just discovered that Miss Ji left the city alone."
"There's no need to report such a trivial matter," Ye Qingchen said quietly.
"I've also discovered an important issue. I brushed past Miss Ji, and she didn't seem to see me at all... She acted like a puppet being controlled by someone..."
The surrounding air dropped rapidly, and Ye Qingchen stood up abruptly. "Lead the way!"
...
Jun Linyu gazed adoringly at the girl lying quietly on the bed, his large hand covering Ji Jiuying's small face as if caressing a priceless gem. How come he hadn't noticed her goodness before? But it doesn't matter... it's not too late now. His Adam's apple bobbed a few times.
The large hand slowly moved down and stopped at her waist. With a gentle pull, the belt became loose.
At this moment, Ji Jiuying was completely unconscious, like a fish on a chopping board, at the mercy of others.
Jun Linyu looked up at her clear yet empty eyes, a slight smile playing on his lips. "Jiu'er~ you ultimately belong to this prince. Now that you've become my woman, let's see who dares to take you..."
Tear!
Ji Jiuying's outer garment was roughly torn open by Jun Linyu. "Jiu'er, look how charming you are when you're being good."
Jun Linyu's eyes turned bloodshot. Just as he was preparing for his next move, a commotion came from outside the courtyard. Jun Linyu frowned slightly, and a bad feeling suddenly came to his mind. Before he could get up to check, the gate was kicked open with a loud bang.
When Feng Che, Hei Xiangling, Ye Qingchen, and the others saw Jun Linyu pinning Ji Jiuying down, their eyes were filled with murderous rage.
"You bastard."
"Go to hell, you ugly freak, bullying my girl."
In a fit of rage, several streams of spiritual energy, each carrying a murderous aura, attacked Jun Linyu simultaneously. Unable to dodge in time, Jun Linyu crashed into the wall and rolled to the ground.
puff!
He vomited several mouthfuls of blood.
With his brows furrowed, Jun Linyu's face suddenly contorted into a ferocious expression, a ruthless glint in his eyes as he yanked Ji Jiuying from the bed.
"Ji Jiuying, I now order you to kill those three."
Ji Jiuying's eyes narrowed, her gaze towards Feng Che and the other two was icy cold. Feng Che and the others stared wide-eyed, "Jiu'er, what's wrong with you?"
"Could that brat be possessed by an evil spirit?"
"Xiao Jiu, wake up."
Jun Linyu laughed cruelly, stood behind Ji Jiuying, and a smoke bomb exploded on the spot, filling the entire room with smoke. Jun Linyu disappeared from the spot.
A streak of fire pierced through the mist, striking Feng Che's vitals. Feng Che's heart sank, and he quickly dodged. Soon, the group was locked in a fierce battle.
Ji Jiuying's fighting prowess was evident to all of them, but the three of them only focused on defense to avoid hurting her.
"Second Master, this can't go on forever." Ye Qingchen frowned slightly.
Feng Che remained silent for a while, then said, "Hei Xiangling, Qing Chen and I will distract her. You find a way to make Jiu'er faint."
"good."
Feng Che and Ye Qingchen exchanged a glance and launched an attack on Ji Jiuying. At this moment, Ji Jiuying launched a fierce attack on them, as if she didn't care about her life.
Hei Xiangling seized the opportunity to launch a sneak attack from behind, but before she could get close, she was trapped in place by a golden chain.
Black Fragrant Feather: ······
Holy crap, this brat doesn't remember them but remembers she has the Immortal-Binding Rope!
Feng Che and Ye Qingchen were slightly taken aback. Did this girl have to be so ruthless?
The three quickly engaged in a fight and then vanished into the air.
"Hey~ Don't go far, remember to come back and save me!"
Hei Xiangling roared, but she was bound by the Immortal-Binding Rope and couldn't move at all.
Murong Zheng had just repelled the Ghost Doctor when he saw this and quickly followed.
Appearing behind Ji Jiuying, a vicious attack was launched at her back. Ji Jiuying's expression turned cold, and she flipped over to meet the attack. At this moment, Murong Zheng's originally dark brown eyes instantly turned into a ghostly green, and the dark green power met those cold eyes.
Ji Jiuying's cold eyes became empty, and her hand slowly descended. Upon seeing this, Feng Che struck Ji Jiuying's head with a beam of mysterious light.
Ji Jiuying let out a roar, her vision went black, and she fell from mid-air. Ye Qingchen leaped forward, took off his outer garment, wrapped it around her, and held her in his arms.
Murong Zheng was also hit by the backlash from Ji Jiuying's power and fell to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood. When he saw that Ji Jiuying had already fainted, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Feng Che landed beside Ye Qingchen, took Ji Jiuying's hand and reached out, his brows furrowing slightly.
After a while, he slowly lowered her hand.
Seeing the doubt in his eyes, Ye Qingchen asked, "Second Master Feng, how is Xiao Jiu?"
Feng Che shook his head. "Strange, very strange. The pulse is normal."
The two looked at Murong Zheng, who stood up weakly. "I...I don't know."
"Let's get out of here first."
No sooner had the words left his mouth than a voice came from inside the room, "Hey~ are you guys still there? Don't forget me."
Feng Che was slightly taken aback, almost forgetting that there was someone else in the room. When he saw Hei Xiangling's current state, he held his forehead and said, "Hei Xiangling, I can't help you untie this Immortal-Binding Rope, so... I apologize for the offense."
"It's alright, just don't leave me behind," Hei Xiangling said.
Upon seeing this, Feng Che stepped forward, picked up Hei Xiangling, and walked out.
