"They are still alive?" Wu Qingcheng asked.

Shen Yan explained calmly. "Although they are related to both of you, we're not cruel enough to kill all of them because of it. However, their situation is not good. They were sent to work as miners in various star realms."

Wu Qingcheng's face drooped, revealing a touch of anger.

Shen Yan didn't say anything and calmly looked at Wu Qingcheng. The fatal weakness of Wu Qingcheng and Yun Lintian was the same. They cared too much about the people around them. It was because of this she got a chance to make them run for her. She was confident that Wu Qingcheng would agree with her proposal.

Surprisingly, Wu Qingcheng raised her head slightly and started to laugh. "Hehehe. You've overestimated yourself, Shen Yan."

Shen Yan's brows raised slightly, but she didn't say anything, waiting for Wu Qingcheng's following words.

"The fact that you keep repeating the same trick over and over again proves that you have no idea about a relationship. I guess you never had a single friend in your entire life. Much less a family love." Wu Qingcheng smiled mockingly.

Shen Yan's face twitched slightly. Wu Qingcheng's words were like a knife ruthlessly stabbing her heart. It was true, as Wu Qingcheng said. She never had a friend and was raised with a business mindset—interest came before everything. To say that she didn't understand a relationship between people was not wrong.

Seeing Shen Yan remain silent, Wu Qingcheng said further. "Let me explain it to you. My relationship with my junior brother is indeed of that a fellow brother and sister type, and in fact, there is no need for him to come all the way to rescue me."

"However, humans are complex creatures. They can be heartless and benevolent at the same time. My junior brother happened to be a man with a very kind soul, and he will do everything to help the people around him, even if that person has a faint relationship with him."

She took a short pause to look into Shen Yan's eyes and continued. "You think you can take advantage of my junior brother's kindness. Even more so believe he will obediently come and work for you just because you hold me hostage."

"I don't know what kind of encounter between you two to make you judge him that he's an easy target to take advantage of."

Wu Qingcheng touched her chin and said. "Well, let me guess. He probably used his medical skill to save unrelated people's life? Or did he give away some profound arts and treasures easily?"

A ripple could be seen in Shen Yan's eyes when she heard this. Wu Qingcheng's guess was basically correct. 

Shen Yan dared to take advantage of Yun Lintian's emotions because she saw how kind he was to others. Not to mention she had repeatedly tested him about his attitude toward his fourth sister. The anger Yun Lintian displayed when he knew about Wu Qingcheng's situation could not be fake.I think you should take a look at

From Shen Yan's reaction, Wu Qingcheng was certain that everything she said was correct. She curled her lips and said further. "There's nothing wrong with you thinking like that because I was the same when I first met him. Unfortunately, you probably think that no matter how my junior brother acted, he would never be your Shen Clan opponent. Even if you make a mistake, there still is your grandfather behind you. After all, he couldn't be stronger than a God Emperor, right?"

Wu Qingcheng shook her head and let out a chuckle. "It can be said your judgment is on point so far. But here comes the point why I said you have overestimated yourself… You have no idea what my junior brother's other side is. As I said above, humans can be heartless and benevolent at the same time. And he is the same. To his enemy, he will be a cold-blood, heartless killer."

"…Especially an enemy that uses his kindness to manipulate him."

Shen Yan suddenly felt a chill running down her spine upon hearing the latter sentence. Wu Qingcheng's words made her realize her fatal mistake. That was, she had no idea what Yun Lintian would be when he was extremely furious.

She still remembered how powerless and trembled Qin Mei's voice was when she sent a message. At least, she had never seen Qin Mei afraid of anyone like this before.

Wu Qingcheng took a sip of water and asked with a faint smile. "Do you know why I decided to agree with your terms?… It's because I know that you're no different from a dead person in my eyes… Hehe. My junior brother's wraith… I don't think you can handle it."

Droplets of cold sweat could be seen on Shen Yan's forehead. Her mind spun rapidly, thinking of a countermeasure. It was, as Wu Qingcheng said, she was confident that Yun Lintian could never make a fuss under her grandfather's might, no matter how powerful he was. At most, there would be some prices to pay.

However, she suddenly realized that if Yun Lintian wanted to kill her, it shouldn't be difficult, even with her grandfather's protection. After all, she had no idea what kind of trump card he had in his hand.

"You're blind by a short-term profit." Wu Qingcheng said. "In fact, if you treat him sincerely, he will be your strong ally. By then, you can get everything."

Shen Yan took a deep breath and asked. "Is there a way to redeem it?"

Wu Qingcheng shook her head in pity. "As far as I know, my junior brother hates being manipulated and threatened. It's fine if it's nothing related to the people around him. Even if he got manipulated, he would be at most angry and get back at the manipulator. Perhaps there's still a chance to reconcile and ask for forgiveness… Sadly, I don't think you're in such a category in his eyes."

She took a deep look at Shen Yan and said sympathetically. "I'm sorry, but you will definitely die. Even if you kill me and my people now, you will still die… Trust me, I'm not joking."

Wu Qingcheng thought of the past. So far, whoever Yun Lintian deemed a dead man, none of them could survive. And she was pretty sure that Shen Yan was in this case.

Shen Yan's body visibly trembled. Her face gradually turned pale as she spoke. "No. There must be a way… You must have a way, right? Tell me. I can agree with every condition."
