Chapter 2273: Chapter 2273: Even More Terrifying Than Him
"So, all these years, he was pretending?"
"Pretending to be close to , pretending to be carefree, acting like he didn’t care about anything—it was all just an act, for
to see?"
"I’ve often wondered—his only son went missing, yet he could act like he knew nothing about it, as if his son’s life or death didn’t matter to him. How is that even sothing a human being could do?"
"It turns out, it was all a facade. He, all of us, even Emperor Ziyan, were fooled by the harmless animal mask that Prince Niu wore."
"When did you find out?"
He struggled to open his mouth and asked Prince Niu.
"Always."
Prince Niu answered him coldly with just one word.
"Always?!"
Yin Lvqing could hardly believe it—this fool was never actually a fool!
"That’s impossible! How could that be? Fifth Brother, you must be lying to . How could you have known all along and still played brothers with
for so many years?"
Yes, for all these years, Yin Lvqing and Prince Niu had practically been inseparable. In the Ziyan Kingdom, who didn’t know they were like brothers, always together?
And now he’s told that all this ti, it was just an act from Prince Niu?
"Yin Lvqing, did you really think I called you brother out of affection?" Prince Niu retorted coldly.
If it weren’t to figure out where his son had gone, he would’ve torn apart this man who had hard his child years ago. Would he still have spared his life until now?
"You... you did it because of Yin Baiqing?"
Only now did Yin Lvqing realize—it wasn’t that Prince Niu was stupid, nor that he was easy to fool over these years.
It was that he wanted to extract from him the whereabouts of Yin Baiqing!
Fortunately, he’d never revealed anything about Yin Baiqing—not even when drunk, he wasn’t careless enough to slip up.
That’s why, after all these years, Prince Niu had been unable to gain even the slightest piece of information from him.
If he had, he might not even live to this mont—his ntion of Yin Baiqing’s location would’ve cost him his life in the next instant, by Prince Niu’s hand.
This kind of person was even more terrifying than himself.
"You... you cannot bla ! This was all Father’s doing. It was he who fed Yin Baiqing the Purple Spirit Pearl; he was the one who coveted the spiritual power in Baiqing. It had nothing to do with !"
He shook his head, pleading to Prince Niu.
Yes, what did it have to do with him? He had only intercepted his father’s plans, that’s all.
Moreover, if he hadn’t interfered, Yin Baiqing would probably have been killed by Emperor Ziyan already. How could he have possibly survived to now?
"If it weren’t for , Father would’ve killed Baiqing long ago and taken the Purple Spirit Pearl from his belly. Fifth Brother, you should be thanking ! I was the one who ensured Baiqing survived—and you accuse
of betraying kindness for vengeance?"
Prince Niu: "..."
He had truly never seen anyone so shaless!
Soone who clearly wanted to commit unspeakable acts, yet still managed to paint themselves as a saintlike figure.
All he could do was let out a cold laugh.
"Yin Lvqing, you’re beyond saving."
"Fifth Brother, Fifth Brother, spare !"
Yin Lvqing didn’t care whether he was beyond saving or not. He only knew that now, this was his only chance.
If Prince Niu could recall their past camaraderie and get him out of this wretched place, away from Sui Zimo and their stronghold, then he still had a chance to live.
If he could start over, he wouldn’t fear anything.
Next ti, he’d be cautious—so cautious that no one would ever get another chance to hurt him.
