At night, the streets were completely silent. There were only a few pedestrians on the streets.
It had just rained, and the smell of earth was everywhere.
The shadow of a person staggering over shattered the moon as his entire body was filled with the smell of alcohol humming a melodious tune. The girls of the Drunken Flower Hall still had the thick scent of rouge on their bodies.
This man was the young master of Fang Family, Fang Heng's follower. Recently, Aunt and Young Grandmother Ling Wan had bestowed a lot to him, he should be extremely satisfied with his life!
Suddenly, a cold wind came from behind him, Chen Yuan didn't mind it and continued to hum with his alcohol burp. Suddenly, his body stiffened and he dropped to his knees with a thump.
"Large... Great hero, spare me, this little one … This humble one is a servant of the Fang Family.
A shining short sword was held against Chen Yuan's neck, he could even feel the cold Qi that was being emitted from the people standing behind him, and was unable to say anything due to his shock.
"AHH!" Chen Yuan screamed miserably as he felt a sharp pain from his neck and his entire body fell to the ground.
"Useless thing!" Ling Shuang never thought that Chen Yuan would be so useless. She did not even use any methods, and just knelt down to beg for forgiveness. Hero, spare me!
She bent over and dragged Chen Yuan into a dark alley, and dragged him into the courtyard she had bought earlier. Ling Shuang knew that this kind of slums with mixed eyes would only hide things that no one else should know.
Just as she dragged Chen Yuan in, Gu Xiao Yun came out to welcome her. He seemed to be busy and interested by himself. This woman could always give him a lot of surprises. On the way, he had been following Ling Shuang everywhere, which made him accustomed to it.
Ling Shuang did not expect Gu Xiao Yun to help her in any way, since this evil merchant was very troublesome to deal with anyway. It was so good that she was not afraid of him leaking the secret, but Gu Xiao Yun still helped her kill some of the people following her, it was kind of useful.
Ling Shuang dragged Chen Yuan to a cellar. Back then, she had her eyes on this independent cellar when she bought this courtyard. There were many ropes and chains hanging on the wall, as well as those strange things that Ling Shuang had spent money to buy from the wind and rain tower.
Just as Chen Yuan woke up, he discovered that his upper body was hanging from a bloodstained wooden pillar. The surroundings were filled with the unpleasant stench of blood, and he did not know that Ling Shuang had used at least a huge barrel of chicken blood to create such a place with such a strong feeling.
"You are …" Chen Yuan was just about to ask about the details, but didn't expect that he would meet Ling Shuang's ice-cold phoenix eyes directly.
"Two …" Second Young Madam? "
"Thank you for remembering me as a person," Ling Shuang said in a voice filled with indescribable joy and anger as he gently and coincidentally wielded a very strange dagger in his hand.
"Second Young Madam, why have I never offended you before?" In the end, Chen Yuan had seen much of the world, and the things he had discussed with Ling Wan recently had taken Ling Shuang's life everywhere, how could it be considered offending him?
Ling Shuang knew that those who could survive by Fang Heng's side did not have many tricks up their sleeves, she also knew that he was extremely crafty, but she had other methods to make him speak.
"Chen Yuan, I don't have that much time to argue with you. I'm just asking you how Ling Wan is preparing to deal with me?"
"Second Young Madam... This... "How would I know?" Chen Yuan would never say it even if he was beaten to death!
Ling Shuang looked at him with a smile that was not a smile, suddenly, the short blade in her hand, mixed with an unknown liquid that was in a porcelain bowl beside him, gently and easily cut Chen Yuan's body.
"Second Young Madam, spare me! This little one really doesn't know! " Chen Yuan screamed miserably. Ling Shuang's blade was obviously not deep, but he still trembled from the pain. It was the kind of pain of being burned by flames.
Ling Shuang used a liquid similar to sulfuric acid, she never thought that Gu Xiao Yun could even find this for her.
"Let me ask you again, how is Ling Wan going to deal with me?"
"Second Young Madam …" The wound on Chen Yuan's body started to split open in all directions, and the reeking, red, and disgusting flesh flipped out as well. He was in so much pain that his entire body started to tremble.
Gu Xiao Yun, who was at the door, watched with interest, as her deep icy eyes landed on the calm and composed Ling Shuang. What kind of woman was she? You do bad things to look like this... Tempting?
Ling Shuang did not care about the evil merchant behind her, she only wanted to get Fang Yu out of prison as soon as possible, this matter needed to be done quickly.
It was a pity that there was no such thing as electricity in this era, if not Chen Yuan would admit to it in a second.
"Chen Yuan, Ling Wan must have promised you a lot of things, but you also know that if a person's life is taken away, how can you continue to enjoy those things?"
Ling Shuang's voice was slow but cold, with every sentence the dagger in her hand would cut across Chen Yuan's body.
"Please spare my life, Second Young Madam! I say! I say! " He really couldn't bear the pain of having his heart and lungs pierced.
"Speak!" Ling Shuang knew that this greedy little person had always been soft. She actually still had a lot of ways to force herself to use them.
Chen Yuan gasped for breath as he replied, "Aunt and Young Grandmother has asked me to contact the old granny Liao at the Eastern City's Hat Lane. She is a human and specializes in selling off those young misses to such places."
"You really think highly of me," Ling Shuang coldly snorted, and as expected, it was Ling Wan's most vicious method.
"And then?"
"Aunt and Young Grandmother found a medicine that could cause Second Young Madam's martial arts to be completely lost. He then handed you over to old woman Liao, broke his leg, and sold you … Sell it to the lowest sort of place. "
Ling Shuang's phoenix eyes were still pitch-black. The heart of this woman, Ling Wan, was really like a snake. The reason why she grabbed her was not only to kill her, but also to humiliate and torture her to such an extent.
"Your Eldest Miss is also participating, right?"
"This …" After all, Eldest Miss was Mrs Fang's most beloved daughter. Chen Yuan knew that if he were to sell Mrs Fang's flesh and blood today, he would take her life even if he were to escape from Mrs Fang later.
He could not help but regret why he did not open his eyes and provoke this woman that he should not have provoked for the sake of the silver in Ling Wan's hands. Wasn't Ling Shuang imprisoned in the East Garden? Why would she appear here?
"Second Young Madam, are you going to spare my life?" Chen Yuan turned pale with fright as he saw Ling Shuang open a box gently in his hands.
Surprisingly, it was filled with large, rare red ants. Ling Shuang turned the ants around and all landed on Chen Yuan's body.
"AHH!" "Ahhh!" Chen Yuan screamed like a madman, the pain was actually a hundred times greater than before.
"Second Young Madam! Second Young Madam! I say! I say! "
