"Someone come!" Capture this bitch for This King! " At the command of Jing Wang, all the guards outside rushed in. Duan Muyan let out a violent roar.
"If anyone dares to take a step inside, this princess will definitely make sure that person dies without a complete corpse!" Duan Mu Yan's words were really kind. The guards that had rushed in earlier all retreated. Just as Jing Wang was about to speak again, Yao'er suddenly walked out from behind Duan Mu Yan.
King Jing, this matter was done by Yao`er, it has nothing to do with anyone. Back then, when Master Yao`er was gentle and adept, she was forced to die in a broken temple due to the insult inflicted by King Rui. Although Yao`er had another master, she still remembered this hatred in her heart, so even after coming to the Xiao family, she did not forget this hatred. Without waiting for Yao'er to finish, Jing Wang suddenly slapped her. Yao'er was sent flying a few meters back with blood flowing from the corner of her lips.
"You bitch!" Jing Wang took another step forward, only to be stopped by Duan Mu Yan's cold voice.
"Duan Yu!" "You heard it very clearly. That day, your unfilial son forced the Yao family's young miss to her death before all these things happened. Now that your son has died, it's like your life has been taken. This is what you deserve!" Each and every word of Duan Muyan was as cold as ice, as though he was trying to anger Jing Wang.
"Duan Mu Yan!" You can withdraw for This King! Now, This King will avenge his son! Someone, bring Yao'er back to Jing King Manor! " Although Jing Wang did not believe Yao'er's words, if Yao'er continued to deny that this matter had nothing to do with Duan Mu Yan, then he had no other choice. No matter what, Duan Mu Yan is the daughter of the Emperor, so even if he finds out something, he might not necessarily take her life.
"Duan Yu!" "How many lives did that vile spawn of yours carry? Now that he's dead, do you know how many people are crying out in joy amongst the masses? He deserves it all!" Duan Moyan inched closer towards him, his eyes bloodshot, as though he wanted to tear apart his own.
"You … "You, shut up!" Jing Wang looked at Duan Mu Yan in disbelief. How could she have ever imagined that Duan Mu Yan would slander her son like this? At this moment, Jing Wang's fists were clenched tightly.
"Shut up? Heh! Duan Rui deserved to die! "If this princess knows about this, she'll definitely reward Yao'er well. She's finally helping the people of the imperial city get rid of this evil …" Before Duan Muyan could finish his sentence, with a 'pah' sound, Jing Wang's palm mercilessly smacked onto her face. Her originally white face now had five bright red fingerprints on it, and blood was already seeping out from the corner of his lips.
"Yao'er!" Send this princess to the Imperial Palace to see royal father! " Duan Moyan glared angrily at Jing Wang, but he suddenly heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. Who in the world didn't know that his Imperial Father wanted face? Even if he wasn't spoiled by him, he would still be angered by his treatment. Hearing his words, Duan Yu was instantly dumbfounded. So this was his goal.
"Wait!" If you want to protect Yao'er, I can give you face, but there's one thing that you can do, in the end, it's this woman who killed Li Er. This king will bring her to the Jing King Manor's ancestral hall to pay respects to the King Rui, if you are unwilling, then this king will not use you to enter the throne room together with you! " Jing Wang suppressed the anger in his heart and coldly spoke. His words were already imploring for peace.
"Mu Yan doesn't understand King Jing's words." Duan Mu Yan was clear in his heart that if he really entered the throne room, he might not necessarily get the upper hand. If Duan Yu had any intentions of making peace, he might as well consider it.
"Today, this duke will bring Yao'er back to Jing King Manor. Tomorrow at noon, I will return a complete Yao'er to you. How is it?" Jing Wang's voice was much gentler as he stared at Duan Mu Yan.
"The Jing King's words make sense?" Duan Mu Yan lowered her gaze to Yao'er, feeling unease in her heart.
"Do what you have to do. This duke will use his own head to guarantee that Yao'er will be safe!" Jing Wang said.
Everyone, listen carefully, Jing Wang said that he would use his own head to guarantee Yao'er's safety, and Jing Wang, this is true. If anything happens to Yao'er, Mu Yan will personally retrieve your head. Each of Duan Muyan's words was as cold as ice, and her eyes were filled with an ice-cold glint.
King Jing did not continue to haggle and ordered Lu Qiuyu and Yao'er to be taken out of the Xiao manor. In the next second after Jing Wang left, Zi Min, who was hidden in the dark, rushed to Duan Mu Yan's side like a madman.
"Princess, what should we do now? Would something happen to Yao'er? King Jing can really keep his promise? " Tears flowed down from Zi Min's eyes. If it wasn't for her taking revenge for him, how could Yao'er have met her doom today?!
Zi Min, immediately contact Yan Wuhen, tell Yan Wuhen to gather everyone here at King Xiao Manor. Also, have Wu Hen immediately hide within King Jing Residence, and if they dare to do anything to Yao'er, immediately report it. No matter what King Jing keeps his word, if he dares to touch a single hair on Yao'er's head, I, Duan Mu Yan, will keep my word. Duan Muyan ruthlessly spoke as her lily-white hands lightly caressed her face.
On the other hand, Duan Mu Yan returned to her room, but she still felt uneasy in her heart. She was really unsure if Jing Wang would make a move on Yao'er, but the situation just now was too late for her to turn back.
About four hours later, Zi Min, Zi Shu, Chou Niu, Yin Hu, and the rest of the twelve snuck into Prince Xiao Mansion. At this moment, Duan Moyan was also a bit fidgety.
At this moment, the Prince's Mansion was brightly lit, causing the entire King's Manor to be as bright as day. Just as Yan Wuhen was about to search for the Jing King's Mansion's Ancestral Hall, he suddenly heard a burst of hurried footsteps, and saw a person dressed as a bodyguard running into the main hall in a hurry.
"Reporting to Your Highness, everything is ready!" The guard said respectfully. Sitting there, Duan Yu sat upright, his dark eyes emitting a sinister light, causing people to feel chills just by glancing at him.
"Good!" Someone! Bring those two bastards to the ancestral hall! " His ice-cold voice carried a dense coldness. The guard accepted the order and immediately withdrew from the main hall. At this moment, Duan Yu walked towards the rear courtyard of the mansion with a body of anger.
The ancestral hall of the Jing King Manor was more luxurious than the one of the Xiao Residence, after all, it was dedicated to the Mo royal family, so naturally it was much more glorious. Yan Wuhen hid in the shadows and observed every single movement within, but the furnishings in front of his eyes made him uneasy. The ancestral hall was decorated with all sorts of torture tools from left to right, such as pincers, iron needles, long whips, and daggers.
At this moment, Jing Wang had already walked into the ancestral hall. After he paid his respects to his son, Jing Wang suddenly stood up and turned to look at the two that were dragged in by the guards, Lu Qiuyu and Yao'er.
"Rachel!" today, I shall use their blood to comfort your soul in heaven! " With these words from King Jing, Lu Qiuyu immediately cried out.
"Your Highness, spare me!" Lu Qiuyu was only instigated by someone, she didn't have any intention of harming Prince Rui … It's her! You bastard, if it wasn't for you, how could I have ended up like this! I hate you! " Lu Ling tried her best to charge at Yao'er, her eyes blazing as she stared at the silent Yao'er. The moment King Jing had brought her into the palace, Yao'er had never thought of leaving alive.
"Shut up!" Someone … "Seal that mouth of Lu Qiuyang with walnuts!" He was well aware of the various punishments that the Badlands Court meted out to the two b * tches. Now, he was going to let these two b * tches in front of him have a taste of what it meant to live rather than die.
Without a word, the guards immediately clamped the forked green pincers and stuffed two walnuts into their mouths. Afterwards, King Jing motioned for the guards to pull the green prongs to the left side of the torture device.
"All of you, listen up! Use your punishments viciously! You can't let this slut die unless you have the last torture device!" The guards naturally obeyed the order and placed the pincers over her legs and hands. In fact, they had already endured the harsher punishment before, but if it wasn't for this, they wouldn't have broken a finger. Now, the reason why King Jing was doing this, was to show it to Yao'er.
"Ugh …" The intense pain caused Lu perky's eyes to widen in shock. Crimson red veins could be seen all over her body as a ferocious and fearful expression appeared on her face. Just by looking at her, one could tell how much pain she was in. Now Yao'er understood. The reason why she had blocked Lu Ling's mouth was because she didn't want her to make a sound, and secondly, because she was afraid that Lu Ling would bite her tongue and commit suicide.
"Your name is Yao'er, right?" Jing Wang suppressed the anger in his heart as he slowly walked towards Yao'er. Even though he was afraid, Yao'er still showed a rarely seen calm expression. In any case, she was still dead, so how could she be afraid? Seeing Yao'er's silence, Jing Wang continued.
"Don't think that just because you made up a few lies that This King would believe. What Miss, what insult, it's all bullshit. This King asks you, just who ordered you to harm my son?" Did you see Lu Ling? If you don't say it, This King will guarantee that the consequences definitely won't be better than her! " Duan Yuhan shouted in a cold voice.
"Your highness better not touch Yao'er, otherwise Princess Qi would keep her promise and take your head." At this moment, Yao'er was ready to go for broke. If she angered Jing Wang, she might have a good time.
"Pui!" She, a silly little girl, dares to do something to me! This King tells you, don't expect her to save you. If she had a way, you wouldn't be here right now! As long as you tell This King to guide you behind the scenes, This King will promise to let you go. Speak? Or don't you want to tell me? " Duan Yu walked closer step by step, and his gaze was ice-cold and stinging.
"Your highness can't even keep his promise with Qi Wangfei. Yao`er, do you still expect your highness to keep his promise with Yao`er? But are you instructing me?" "Someone really did instruct us …" Yao'er spoke softly, neither servile nor overbearing.
"Who is it? Isn't that Duan Mu Yan?! " Duan Yu asked anxiously.
"No, it's the Heavens. The Heavens can't bear seeing a vile spawn like you acting so tyrannically and bullying the common people, so they used Yao'er to enforce justice for the heavens. It's a pity Yao'er didn't have a blade at that time, otherwise she would have torn Duan Rui into ten thousand pieces!" Just as she finished speaking, her entire body was sent flying by Duan Yu to the corner of the wall. Fresh blood flowed from the corner of Yao'er's lips, and she let out a cold laugh.
"Would Your Highness be pleased to hear the truth? Not every beast can startle the heavens, only that unfilial son of yours would receive such treatment! It's just that he didn't die miserably enough, so the heavens specially sent him to the 18th level of hell after he died, causing him to suffer the pain of mountains of blades and seas of fire, suffering from the pain of snakes nibbling away at him, did you hear that? How miserable your vile voice is! Did you see that he was bitten all over by poisonous snakes? He's calling you! He wants you to go down and save him! "Go quickly …" Yao'er suddenly opened her mouth and laughed softly. That laughter sounded as if it came from the depths of hell to Duan Yu, and that eerie voice caused Duan Yu to instantly take a few steps back.
