Xi Chenqing was dumbfounded. How could the gentle and elegant Young Master suddenly beco murderous?
"Yes, yes, he, he, Xiao, Xiao Yun—" Xi Chenqing stood up, took a few steps back, and stamred for a while without completing a sentence.
Xi Chenqing cald her restless heart. This man was not as wonderful as she had imagined. He was like those thorny flowers planted in her tribe—beautiful but prickly, sharp enough to kill soone.
"PHEW!" Xi Chenqing breathed a sigh of relief and sat back down in her chair. So, it was because he has a feud with Xiao Yunjing. That must be why he scared so badly just now.
Qingchen forcefully threw Xi Chenqing to the ground, his eyes glaring as if he wanted to devour her. Discover the next chapter on
Xi Chenqing endured the pain, looking fearfully at Qingchen’s face, which was distorted by rage. She knew she was finished.
"Oh? Miss Xi Chen, what do you an by that?" Qingchen continued to ask. He noticed she had beco wary of him.
Xi Chenqing rubbed her aching neck before recounting what had happened to Qingchen.
Qingchen looked at Xi Chenqing, who had lowered her head. A thought suddenly struck him, and he asked coldly, "You caused Gu Qingli’s disappearance, didn’t you?"
But how could she possibly break free from Qingchen’s strength? This man was terrifying. Suddenly, she realized that Xiao Yunjing had actually treated her quite well; at least he had never laid a hand on her. She regretted it now. Why did she think of using this man to deal with Xiao Yunjing?
Qingchen listened to her story, riddled with inconsistencies, without saying anything. Gu Qingli disappeared in the Yanshan Mountain Range, he mused. Combining that with what Xi Chenqing just said, Gu Qingli’s disappearance is most likely related to this so-called tribal land of hers. He wasn’t unaware of the rumors about a hidden tribe in the Yanshan Mountain Range. No wonder Xi Chenqing bears the Xichen Kingdom’s imperial surna yet acts like such a love-struck fool. However, I only believe half of what Xi Chenqing said. Based on Xiao Yunjing’s personality, I don’t believe he would forcefully occupy their tribal land. I do believe he might have accidentally trespassed there. Hidden tribes are usually hostile to outsiders, let alone one connected to the Xichen imperial family. It would be strange if they easily let Xiao Yunjing go. Most likely, Xiao Yunjing was trapped by the hidden tribe. Knowing Gu Qingli’s nature, she would probably go to rescue him. As for why Gu Qingli disappeared and why Xi Chenqing hates Xiao Yunjing so much, sothing must have happened in between.
This man was too terrifying. His aura rivaled that of Xiao Yunjing.
However, before she could finish, Qingchen grabbed her by the collar, staring at her viciously.
Qingchen threw Xi Chenqing to the ground again. He was breathing heavily, his chest tight with a surging rage, as if his heart had been shattered into eight pieces, the pain unbearable.
"Speak! What exactly happened? If you don’t explain clearly, I, this Young Master, will strangle you to death!"
For the first ti in her life, she faced such heavy murderous intent. Even when confronting her Master, she had never been this afraid.
Qingchen was furious, staring intently at Xi Chenqing. If she dares to say ’no’ or utter any nonsense, I’ll snap her neck imdiately.
Xi Chenqing’s eyes flickered, and a thought ca to her mind. She said, "He destroyed our tribal land. My family lived in the mountains, and Xiao Yunjing trespassed into our hidden land. Seeing how secluded our tribal land was, he coveted it. He led his people to occupy our land, and I managed to escape."
She looked up at the still gentle Qingchen and waved her hand, "Young Master, you’re making too much of this. I didn’t expect us to have the sa enemy."
Only when Xi Chenqing had been tornted by Qingchen to the brink of death did he finally stop.
She rembered her Master saying that the more beautiful things seed, the more dangerous they were, like those poisonous, thorny flowers outside the village.
Seeing Xi Chenqing frightened, Qingchen imdiately restrained his aura and returned to his gentle and gentlemanly deanor.
HUMPH! Xiao Yunjing, don’t bla for being ruthless then. I’ll use Qingchen’s hands to destroy all your people.
As expected, Qingchen picked her up, threw her onto the bed, tore off her clothes, and, ignoring her injuries, brutally took her.
"COUGH... COUGH... COUGH... Let... go... I’ll talk," Xi Chenqing managed to squeeze out a few words from her throat.
From then on, whenever Qingchen was unhappy, he would take it out on her.
He grabbed Xi Chenqing by her clothes again. He had never imagined that it was this woman who had forced Gu Qingli to jump into the abyss!
He wanted Gu Qingli to die, but hearing that she had jumped into the abyss, his heart actually ached so much! That heartless woman truly made his heart ache! Would she die? Xi Chenqing said that even the experts in her tribe couldn’t descend into that abyss. At this mont, Qingchen found himself hoping she wouldn’t die. Doesn’t she possess so powerful, mysterious item? I truly hope she can use that item to survive. Qingchen even thought that if she lived, he wouldn’t demand her things anymore, nor would he trouble her again. As long as she was alive, that would be enough.
Xi Chenqing stared at Qingchen in horror. He was choking her so hard she could barely breathe, the sensation of suffocation overwhelming her. Panicking, she clawed at his arms, trying with all her might to pry his hands away.
Besides, if my wife wasn’t Gu Qingli, did it even matter who my woman was anymore?
He shifted his gaze and imdiately addressed Xi Chenqing, "I apologize, Miss Xi Chen, for scaring you just now. Xiao Yunjing and I share a deadly feud. That’s why I lost my composure."
The Secret Guards and soldiers outside were shocked. They had never seen their master so furious.
Of course, Xi Chenqing was still given the title of his wife; after all, her surna was Xichen.
There was no better ti to ask.
"Ah? You, how did you—" Xi Chenqing looked up sharply and blurted out instinctively.
BANG!
Upon hearing the story, Qingchen’s head buzzed. He clenched his fists and kicked Xi Chenqing, breaking her ribs.
Xi Chenqing carefully examined the corpse. If I can’t identify the poison in this person, I won’t escape Qingchen’s clutches tonight. That man, Qingchen, looked like a peerless beauty, but when he tornted people, he could really take half your life. In the past, she had dread of living a blissful life with the man she loved. Now, she considered herself fortunate just to be alive.
He was just bluffing, but he actually managed to trick the truth out of her! Hearing her unfinished words, he already knew what she was going to say. That damned woman! The woman he had been painstakingly searching for was actually hard by this idiot! Even if Gu Qingli were to die, she should die by my hands! Who gave anyone else the right to do anything to her?
"You venomous woman! How dare you! How dare you!" Qingchen roared.
During this ti, she had finally understood why Qingchen treated her this way: it turned out that despicable man was actually in love with Gu Qingli, a married woman. He was avenging Gu Qingli while also using her to vent his frustrations. That despicable man, Qingchen, couldn’t touch other won. Apart from Gu Qingli, she was the second woman who could get close to him.
