Chapter 30

Breaking Off The Engagement (6)

“That depends on Young Master Qing and Lord Yun,” Bai Ye said to the crowd.

Her bright smile was still intact as she emphasized loudly. “I’m young and easily spooked. We’re in such an intense and high pressure situation. I might just accidentally destroy the antidote.”

At that, everyone turned to look at the sweet, young girl who held the antidote capsule. Her smile was cheery and deliberate, contradicting the innocence she was proclaiming.

Wait a minute...

Realization dawned on everyone in the room—it was an ultimatum. If Bai Ye was forcefully removed or taken down, she would destroy the antidote and kill everyone in the process.

There was a second of silence as the information was digested.

F*ck!

The little girl’s threat was a true show of power! A true witch!

The third miss of the Yun family was nothing compared to this witch in sheep’s clothing. For the sake of her own safety, she was willing to poison a hall full of innocents.

The plot was hatched thanks to her herb-picking experience with Bai Zhan and her own knowledge of apothecary. The ‘poison’ and ‘antidote’ were created during her journey to Tong City.

With the help of some paralyzing agents and Bai Ye’s perfect execution of ‘

Calming Energy

‘, the fake poison appeared real.

When the last guard exited the hall, Yun Suqian turned to Bai Ye and said, “My guards have retreated. You can release the antidote now.”

Once the antidote was released, Yun Suqian and Qing Xuantian would jump into action and capture Bai Ye.

Ji Fu had the same thoughts and wanted to warn Bai Ye.

Before he could, a smirk was already on Bai Ye’s face. “There’s no rush. Let us all hear about how the Young Master of Qingyun treats his so-called childhood love and fiancée. Only then will I release the antidote.”

Hidden in the air, Yu Jiuchong chuckled at Bai Ye’s words.

A skill that affects others’ Mystic Energy.
