Volume 1 Chapter 84 Who is more ruthless and poisonous

  "Sly! If you hadn't hidden your cultivation, my sister would have come to find you for a match? You're clearly doing it on purpose!" Du Lengmo's eyes blazed with fire as he glared at her and shouted angrily.

  "It's simply ridiculous! Thinking you can beat me, come find me for a try, and intentionally wanting my life, but after losing, saying I deliberately wanted her life... Hmph, she will die, it's her own fault." Qin Luo's chin was slightly raised, with a glimmer of cold light in his phoenix-like eyes, he sneered.

  Chu Yixiu's black cloth on his face was lifted by Chu Yifeng, and his usually gentle face turned gloomy. In the depths of his eyes, a strong sense of defeat and unwillingness flashed quickly.

  Cheng Wang defeated the bandits, today he was about to succeed, all because of Qin Luo Yi... If it wasn't for her sudden appearance, Chu Yi Feng would have already become a soul under his knife!

  Pressing her thin lips together, she turned her head to stare at Qin Luo Yi, scolding: "Even if Yu Die was wrong, with your cultivation level, you could have just taught her a lesson and made her understand her mistake... but instead, you didn't hesitate to take her life. And as for Leng Ye, you even killed him, he lost his sister and was emotional, yet you didn't give him any chance to live."

  He shook his head, his low voice filled with disappointment: "Qin Luoyi, I never thought that you would be such a ruthless person!"

  Du Lengmo painfully closed his eyes, and the scene of Yu Die and Leng Ye's death appeared clearly before him, making his handsome face twisted to the extreme. When he opened his eyes again, the killing intent in them was even stronger.

  Qin Luo Yi looked at them, smiled indifferently: "Am I a ruthless and poisonous woman? Did your cousin die unjustly? Aren't they ruthless too? Hehe, don't forget, it was they themselves who signed the life-and-death contract back then. I didn't hold their hands to make them sign! Yes, I killed them, but I did it openly and fairly, unlike your good cousin, who only knows how to use sneak attacks, underhanded tactics, and outnumbering others with despicable means!"

  Chu Yifeng was taken aback.

  Du Lengmo shouted at her: "Nonsense! My sister was also openly competing with you that day, when did they ever ambush you?"

  "That day they certainly didn't, in front of so many people, and they also didn't dare." Qin Luo Yi replied calmly to his roar.

  "You mean they've killed you before?" Chu Yixiu's heart skipped a beat, and he furrowed his brow, asking in a deep voice.

  "Of course, you think I wanted to kill them for no reason... Several months ago, those two had already looked down on me. At that time, if it weren't for the fact that I happened to have a protective charm on my body, I would have been killed by them! " He paused and then coldly laughed at Du Lengmo: "Your good brother and sister said at the time that they wanted to kill me, cut me into eight pieces, and then throw me into the moat... Cutting someone into eight pieces is something I couldn't do, this one thing I am inferior to them, so I left their corpses intact."

  Chu Yifeng had never heard her mention this before, his handsome face turned icy cold, and a fierce killing intent flashed in his eyes. Those two siblings were indeed deserving of death! But such a quick and easy death was too good for them, how dare they lay hands on his Yi'er!

  Chu Yixiu looked at Du Lengmo with a suspicious gaze.

  Du Lengmo was taken aback, just about to retort, when suddenly he recalled the events of the past few days. Leng Ye had brought a group of disciples from his family in and out frequently. Some of them were among those killed by the talismans... He had seen their dead bodies too... His face changed color several times, turning bright red, and finally he couldn't say another word.

  Qin Luo Yi saw it and knew that Du Leng Mo might also know something, so she hooked her lips and ignored him, turning to look at Chu Yu Xiu, teasingly saying: "I just killed two people who wanted my life, but you say I'm ruthless... Third Prince, you brought people disguised as assassins, wanting to kill your own brother, hehe, what kind of behavior is this?"

  "My dear brother, with a group of people, wants to kill me, I wonder why, I'd like to know too!" Chu Yifeng raised an eyebrow, smiled slightly, and spoke slowly, but his eyes flashed with a fierce glint.

  "Do you want to know why?" Chu Yixiu sneered, curling up the corners of his lips, and a sinister glint flashed in his eyes: "If you really treated me as your brother, then... how could you have known that Yi'er was my future wife, yet still done something that wronged me with her?"

  Qin Luo Yi raised an eyebrow upon hearing this. He killed Chu Yi Feng just because of this? She didn't quite believe it!

  Qin Luo Han died with a lingering fear, and before his death, he revealed the fact that he had been poisoned by someone. Chu Yu Xiu had always been suspicious about it... Now even if he has found out the truth, their engagement had already been annulled by imperial decree, what else is there for him to be puzzled about?

  Chu Yifeng looked at his angry face, remained silent for a moment, before slowly opening his mouth to say: "That was just an accident, it was Qin Luohan's mother and daughter's scheme. At the time, if I hadn't detoxified in time, Yi'er would have been in danger of losing her life."

  After that, towards Chu Yixiu this younger brother, he still had guilt in his heart. Even though he knew that this younger brother didn't like Qin Luyi, but no matter what, at that time she was still his fiancée... He even thought before, later on when he and Xian Guifei, as long as they weren't too excessive, he would be willing to turn a blind eye, let this younger brother become a wealthy and powerful prince, guaranteeing him a lifetime of safety.

  Chu Yixiu sneered, her eyes narrowing into slits as a cold glint flashed in them: "Their scheme? Ha ha, I was there that day too, why didn't you inform me, but instead...". She gritted her teeth, unable to continue speaking, her eyes reddening with rage, her face twisted in extreme anger.

  Qin Luo Yi opened her mouth, about to speak, but Chu Yu Feng gently shook his head and used his eyes to stop her: "Tell you? When something happened, your mother's old illness relapsed, you had already left the capital hundreds of miles away, where could I go to find you?" This method he had thought of before, but would it work?

  "Even if it was too late at the time... what about afterwards? Why did you still have to sneak around behind my back!" Thinking of last night, these two people had been messing around in the mountain villa for a whole night, and his eyes grew even more furious.

  Qin Luo Yi couldn't bear it anymore and angrily said: "Chu Yu Xiu, don't use this as an excuse to think that everyone owes you. Are you saying that because of this matter, you killed him, let someone impersonate an assassin, and kill your own brother? Not only do we not believe this, but even you yourself must feel that this reason is far-fetched! Moreover, after the incident happened, I never intended to marry you!"

  Only that previous Qin Luo Yi was silly enough to use suicide to preserve her own innocence, thinking that way would be worthy of the man she loved.

  "Our engagement was called off long ago, and we don't have any relationship anymore. I want to be with whoever I want, do whatever I want, and it has nothing to do with you! You want to kill him, but why? Heaven knows, earth knows, you know, everyone knows!"

  Chu Yifeng's lips curled up with a hint of a smile, his eyes gleaming as he gazed at her. Chu Yixiu's deepest secret was openly exposed, and his face turned even more unsightly.

  "Does it have nothing to do with me? Qin Luoyi, you've always liked me. If he hadn't used his cunning, would you have changed your mind so quickly?" He had always believed that if not for Chu Yifeng's intervention, even if Qin Luoyi had lost her memory and temporarily forgotten him, she would still remember eventually. But instead, she was getting further and further away from him, to the point where she even wanted to cancel their engagement!

  Qin Luo Yi pursed her red lips, her eyes gleaming sharply: "Yes, the old me did like you, but that Qin Luo Yi died on that day. The new me won't be stuck in a one-sided love that will never be returned."

  Chu Yixiu gazed at her forehead, pursed his thin lips and said angrily: "How do you know I won't like you? I told you before, we didn't have a relationship in the past, and as a man and woman, I naturally didn't have any extra thoughts about you. But after the imperial decree for our marriage, I've always considered you my future queen."

  "Really?" Qin Luo Yi lightly laughed, her slender hand stroking her own face: "You'll like me, like a useless waste with nothing to offer, or a useless waste with ugly acne all over my face?" Her phoenix-like eyes were filled with self-mockery.

  Chu Yifeng looked at her lovely face, and a hint of sympathy flashed in his eyes. Since they met, she had always seemed to be indifferent to these things, but... it turned out that she still cared.

  Chu Yixiu's dark eyes flashed with a strange color, and he spoke in a gentle voice: "Yi'er, since I've already accepted the imperial edict for our marriage, I naturally won't hold onto that... After we get married, I'll definitely treat you well. Knowing that Qin Luohan once drugged you, I know that the injury on your forehead was because of me... Did you really forget about me so thoroughly after getting hurt?"

  Although the hope is slim, he still hopes to awaken Qin Luo's feelings for him, especially at this moment.

  Qin Luo Yi sneered, this man's face was so thick-skinned that she was completely speechless: "Will you treat me well? How do you plan to treat me well? The main wife hasn't even entered the door yet, and you've already decided to welcome a concubine... or is this what you call treating me well?"

  Chu Yixiu's eyes sparkled, and just as he was about to speak again, Gong Li and Mo Sui Feng had already rushed over. Following behind them were not only the people who had taken Qin Luo's clothes and split up to find Chu Yi Xiu earlier, but also many experts from the East Palace, and even the Emperor himself rode a horse to rush over.

  Chu Yifeng was stunned, seemingly not expecting the emperor to arrive as well. He immediately turned around and went forward to greet him. At this time, the effect of the Ding Shen symbol had already disappeared, and Chu Yifeng could finally move his body again. However, he felt like there were a thousand pounds weighing on his feet, his heart racing wildly, making it difficult for him to take half a step forward.

  The dark figure stood silently behind him, Du Lengmo's face turned iron green, and suddenly there was a feeling that the situation had already taken a turn for the worse.

  The emperor saw that Chu Yixiu was dressed in black, his attire and appearance were the same as those of the assassins who had been stabbed to death, and there were even a few pieces of black cloth on the ground. His originally anxious and worried expression turned into extreme rage.

  He had been an emperor for decades, what turmoil and intrigue hadn't he seen? At the sight of this scene, he suddenly understood a bit about what was happening here. His gaze was sharp as a knife, but after glancing at Chu Yixiu's pale and defeated face, he didn't look at him again, his concerned gaze falling on Crown Prince Chu Yifeng instead.

  She looked him up and down in a circle, seeing that he was not injured, and finally put her mind at ease.

  Even before the morning court had begun, the urgent signal from the Eastern Palace had startled him, and he rushed over with his men, thinking that something was amiss. He never expected that it would be Chu Yishu, this ungrateful son, who would attempt to poison his own brother!

  In recent years, Xian Guifei had always wanted her son to become the crown prince. He had a vague feeling about it, but he thought that with his full support, Chu Yifeng's position as crown prince was very secure. A woman who is always in the deep palace can't stir up any big waves, and besides, although Chu Yixiu is excellent, he has always been gentle and humble, respectful to his elder brother and loving to his younger brothers, without showing any ambition like his mother... Who would have thought that he was wrong!

  Chuyifeng's birth mother, Empress Yao, was his wife, intelligent and beautiful, understanding of others. During her time in the Eastern Palace, she had already gained his deep respect and love. Unfortunately... Her body had always been weak, and since giving birth to Chuyifeng, she had been bedridden with illness. He searched the world for rare and precious medicines, and only managed to extend her life by a few years.

  At first, when Empress Yao died, he had solemnly promised her that he would raise their son well and pass on to him the supreme position under heaven. Who could have thought...under his very eyes, the crown prince almost lost his life!

  He brought all the people back to the palace, and it didn't take long for the emperor to figure out what was going on. He also investigated the identities of those assassins. Moreover, Crown Prince Chu Yi's heart had completely turned cold towards Chu Yixiu due to this assassination attempt, deciding not to be lenient with the mother and son anymore.

  With a little manipulation, the emperor would smoothly investigate the assassination incident and find out that the concubines who had been favored in the palace in recent years had died of illness, but were actually poisoned... And these things are directly or indirectly related to Xian Guifei, who is currently in favor.

  The emperor, in a fit of rage, had the virtuous imperial concubine thrown into the cold palace and also threw the maids and eunuchs from the imperial concubine's palace into prison, subjecting them to severe interrogation... Only then did they discover that the virtuous imperial concubine not only poisoned the consorts in the palace but also colluded with her son to secretly harm the crown prince, which was not the first time. The more he knew, the angrier the emperor became and the more disappointed he was with the virtuous imperial concubine and her son.

  A month later, the Emperor issued a decree, proclaiming to the world that Xian Guifei's virtues were not upright, she plotted against the palace concubines and colluded with Zhao Guo, intending to murder the Crown Prince, her crimes were unforgivable, and she was given poisonous wine to drink herself to death!

  The Dus, the family of Empress Xian, knowing that harming the Crown Prince was a heinous crime, not only did not stop it but also assisted in the tyranny. All the strong men under their command launched a surprise attack on the Crown Prince... After the Emperor listed their crimes, he issued an order to exterminate the Dus.

  As for the third prince, Chu Yixiu, after all, blood is thicker than water. The emperor was both hateful and angry with him, but in the end, he couldn't bear to take his life, so he had him imprisoned in a secret place, assigning many skilled guards to keep a close watch on him.

  Two months later, Chu State sent assassins to kill Zhao State's Xuan, who declared war on Chu State. King Qin Lingyun of Zhen Nan and Crown Prince Chu Yifeng led an army of one million to conquer Zhao State...
