Seemingly surprised by Ruan Xiyan's obedient cooperation, Chief Yu paused for a moment before quickly ordering the Imperial Guards to escort her back to the palace to report.
Ruan Xiyan looked innocent and harmless, but if it weren't for the corpses scattered all over the place and the strong smell of blood wafting into her nose from time to time...
He really thought she was just an innocent young girl.
Although he couldn't sense any power or aura emanating from Ruan Xiyan, so many people from the Qi State Duke's mansion had died tragically.
Even Qi Shenhai, who was at the advanced level, died.
Therefore, this little girl should not be underestimated.
Just as she was about to leave the courtyard, Ruan Xiyan suddenly remembered that Qi Lin was still lying on the ground, half-dead.
She stopped in her tracks; leaving things unresolved was not her style!
Ruan Xiyan kicked a long sword off the ground.
The longsword pierced Qi Lin's heart with unerring accuracy, the powerful force sending him flying, the tip of the sword embedding itself deeply in the wall.
Qi Lin was pierced by a sword and hung on the wall, finally taking his last breath.
Chief Yu was startled by this sudden turn of events; everything happened so fast that he had no time to react.
He really didn't expect Ruan Xiyan to do this.
He quickly pressed the weapon in his hand against Ruan Xiyan's neck, and said warily, "What are you doing!"
His body stiffened, his hand gripping the weapon trembled slightly, and a chill ran through him.
If you didn't believe before that a little girl like Ruan Xiyan could slaughter the Duke of Qi's mansion.
But what had just happened forced him to believe it.
If this little girl resists, they will likely suffer heavy losses.
“Murder! Isn’t that obvious? We’ve already killed so many, one more won’t make a difference,” Ruan Xiyan replied calmly.
She remained calm throughout, as if she weren't a prisoner about to be detained.
On the contrary, the one making the arrest was more nervous than the one being arrested.
"Relax, don't be nervous. Since I've chosen to go with you, I'll behave myself and won't fight you."
Chief Yu's lips twitched slightly.
What the hell?! This is the first time I've ever seen a prisoner comfort him instead.
However, the most urgent task is to bring her into the palace as soon as possible.
Prison tower.
None of the people imprisoned here are good people. There are no ordinary single cells here, only chaotic and disorderly large cells.
The royal family seemed completely unafraid of these people causing trouble; on the contrary, they deliberately escalated the conflict and allowed these people to commit murder.
After Ruan Xiyan was locked up, the originally noisy environment instantly became quiet.
"Oh! A fairy-like beauty has been locked up here. She's really beautiful." A man with a scar on his face stared lewdly at Ruan Xiyan, his eyes filled with greed.
"What did you do wrong? You must have been quite frightened. Come here and let your brother take good care of you." The scarred man said as he approached Ruan Xiyan.
The others remained unmoved by the scene, as if it were commonplace.
Seeing the scarred man's outstretched hand, Ruan Xiyan's lips curled into a cold smile.
"It's nothing serious, just the annihilation of the entire Qi State Duke's family!"
Ruan Xiyan's voice was gentle and soft, but she suddenly grabbed the outstretched pig's hoof hand and snapped it off.
Screams like those of a pig being slaughtered echoed from the cell.
"Noisy." Ruan Xiyan frowned slightly.
He grabbed the scarred man by the neck with his other hand, and with a snap, the scarred man stopped breathing and collapsed to the ground.
Everyone gasped and instinctively took a step back.
As expected, appearances can be deceiving; none of the people who made it into this place are easy to mess with.
"I've always had a bad temper, and anyone else want to try? I wouldn't mind sending them to hell."
"Pah! A stinking woman, trying to act tough as soon as she arrives. In this prison, nobody's a pushover."
"Brothers, let's teach her a lesson. When did it become the place for a bitch to act so arrogantly?" said a skinny man with a pointed face and monkey-like features.
The lackey chimed in, "Big brother is right."
The others stood by, watching the spectacle with amusement, shouting, "Go for it!"
"Let's fight!"
Seeing the people rushing towards her, Ruan Xiyan moved slightly, her speed so fast that a figure flashed past her eyes.
By the time they could see clearly, Ruan Xiyan was already standing behind those troublemakers.
She held a silver needle, slightly larger than an embroidery needle, between her index and middle fingers; the tip of the needle gleamed coldly.
Those who started the trouble widened their eyes, suddenly clutched their necks, and slowly collapsed to the ground.
"They're all...they're all dead!"
"I didn't see how she made the move at all."
Ruan Xiyan glanced at the crowd around her, "Anyone else? Let's all come at me!"
Those people quickly stepped back, keeping their distance from this dangerous and terrifying woman.
Ruan Xiyan cleared a large area around herself. She scoffed lightly, thinking that violence was indeed the simplest and most satisfying way to fight violence.
She found a clean spot to sit down.
Many people cautiously observed what Ruan Xiyan was doing, but seeing that she was just sitting and not making any extra movements, they went back to doing their own things.
Ruan Xiyan set up a bewitching array around the area; in such a chaotic place, one must be wary of others.
She then sat against the wall, not in a hurry to do anything.
Let's see what the royal family does first, and then remain calm and wait for any eventuality!
She took the jade hairpin off her head and stroked it carefully.
Qi Shenhai told me that this jade hairpin is a spatial treasure, and he tried everything to make it recognize him as its master, but to no avail.
Is it really that difficult to recognize a God?
Ruan Xiyan held the jade hairpin in her hand, and seeing that she was not moving for a long time, she seemed a little anxious.
