“What did you just do? It hurts! It hurts so much!”
Feng Ruqing’s face was expressionless. “It’s just a spiritual qi for you. My spiritual qi will destroy your brain, your body, and soul… Until you’re dead!”
Zhen Tian trembled and looked at Feng Ruqing in horror.
‘Demon! This woman is a demon!’
Feng Ruqing lowered her body. She cupped Zhen Tian’s chin and sneered.
Zhen Tian was already over forty, but she was still beautiful. No wonder that Duan Qiong had made her his wife.
“Does it hurt? The pain Xiao Ya suffered was a hundred times worse than yours. And my Xiao Yin… She was separated from her real mother because of you, and to this day, she still does not know her mother. Do you know the pain of knowing each other but not recognizing each other?
“Do you know the kind of pain a mother feels when she’s been locked up for twenty years, with physical abuses that hurt over and over again, and is forced to be separated from her daughter for twenty years?”
These two women she loved, one was cute but abrasive, following Feng Ruqing for so long that she could not get rid of her no matter how hard she tried.
While the other one…
When she saw Xiao Ya for the first time, she felt as if they had known each other for years…
Little Soul smirked.
‘If this woman is a man, she must be a scum who dates more than one girl at a time!’
“So…” Feng Ruqing smiled. “What makes you think I’ll let you die happily? I’ll make you pay back the pain you’ve caused Xiao Ya a hundred times over!”
Xiao Ya could hear everything.
She desperately wanted to open her eyes, but she could not open them…
However, as soon as Feng Ruqing said these things, Xiao Ya suddenly got the strength to open her eyes and saw a familiar stunning face…
Tears slowly flowed down her cheeks.
‘She’s here. It’s not a dream!
‘I know she’d come!’
She thought that she would never see her again. That bastard must have abducted her when the Ninth Emperor just happened to arrive.
Xiao Ya was already weak, but somehow she got the strength to get up from the ground and run to Feng Ruqing.
Tears and snot were streaming down her face. She sobbed as if she was trying to tell her endless grievances.
“It’s alright…” Feng Ruqing stroked Xiao Ya’s head gently. “You’re not feeling well, go, and rest first. We’ll go back after I’ve settled these matters, and I’ll cook you an herbal dish.”
Xiao Ya nodded, her mouth slightly parted as she cast an accusing gaze at Old Master Duan.
Feng Ruqing followed Xiao Ya’s gaze, her eyes slightly sunken. “He was the one who poisoned you?”
Xiao Ya nodded.
“Was he also the one who knocked you unconscious?”
Xiao Ya was startled. Her eyes were filled with anger as she saw pale Little Soul standing behind Feng Ruqing.
Feng Ruqing glanced at Little Soul. “You hurt her? And lied to me?”
Little Soul stiffened. “It wasn’t me. It was Little Sword. It threatened me to lie, I had nothing to do with it!”
Buzz!
Little Sword was furious, and with the hilt pointing downward, it landed hard on Little Soul’s head.
“I’ll get back to you later.” Feng Ruqing turned her gaze and walked toward the old man. “You also hunted Xiao Ya and wanted to kill her, right? I heard from the Tang family’s elders that when the Gu family’s Second Master picked Xiao Yin, she was being hunted by somebody…”
