Chapter 224

Volume 1_Chapter 224: The Regent Has Come to Kill (Part 2)

In the end, Yun Qiyue gave up the plan to use strong poison; good medicine should be used on the cutting edge.

Using a good opportunity to exchange for poison, she didn't know who would benefit from it.

Besides, the Imperial Uncle had already arrived; if she couldn't even delay for this little bit of time, it would make her seem too incompetent.

Thinking of this, Yun Qiyue switched from defense to offense with the fastest speed when a group of people surrounded her.

Yun Qiyue's speed was very fast, and she didn't know when she had taken a dagger stained with poison in her hand.

For a time, she was not at a disadvantage; on the contrary, she fought more and more bravely.

However, seeing that Yun Qiyue couldn't be captured for a while, Yu Lin suddenly came up with a sinister move.

Yu Lin said, "Kill the Crown Prince."

As soon as Yu Lin said this, not only Yun Qiyue but even those guards were stunned.

After all, no one had thought that Yu Lin would issue the order to kill the Crown Prince.

It must be said that this person, Yu Lin, is truly ruthless enough.

But now, who cares whether Yu Lin is ruthless or not?

Those Yu family guards only listened to orders; they acted however their master instructed.

As for Yun Qiyue, she understood Yu Lin's purpose in almost an instant.

At this time, Yu Lin letting his subordinates kill the Crown Prince, wasn't it just to frame her and shift the blame onto her?

If the Crown Prince died at this time, it would probably drive the Emperor and Empress to desperation.

By then, no matter how much the Emperor and Empress feared the Imperial Uncle, they would probably attack her or the Yun family.

She wasn't afraid of the Emperor and Empress attacking, but she had to consider those people in the Yun family.

Although most of them were people she didn't like or care about.

But there were always people she cared about.

For example, Grandfather.

Or, those innocent servants.

Therefore, almost in an instant, Yun Qiyue also made a decision: protect the Crown Prince.

At this very moment, Yun Qiyue had to ensure she wasn't hurt while also protecting the Crown Prince; in a situation where the other side had many people and she was alone, it was actually very difficult.

Those guards, like their master, were rushing forward regardless of their lives.

Yun Qiyue's hands were numb from killing; her body and face were covered in bloodstains, and the smell of blood filled her nose, causing a bit of bloodlust to gradually rise in her eyes.

Kill!

In Yun Qiyue's mind, there was almost only one word.

"The Regent has arrived—"

Just then, someone suddenly shouted loudly, not knowing who they were reminding, but it made Yun Qiyue come back to her senses from the state of being blinded by killing.

The Imperial Uncle has come!

Yun Qiyue felt a moment of relaxation in her heart, but she didn't stop.

She knew very well that whoever stopped first at this time would be the one to suffer.

And those guards, upon hearing that the Regent had come, were also a bit panicked, and their movements paused for a moment.

However, it was only for a moment.

The next moment, Yun Qiyue felt their attacks on her become even more fierce.

Perhaps because they knew Ye Lanjue had come, her hands were a bit weak, and her movements weren't as fast.

And just at this moment, several guards raised their swords to hack at Yun Qiyue simultaneously...

When Ye Lanjue walked in, it was as if he were stepping on ice; his whole body was filled with a cold aura, and wherever he went, no one dared to raise their eyes, like the arrival of the God of Death.

Everyone could only see Ye Lanjue walking as if he were strolling in a courtyard; every step he took was very leisurely, but in reality, Ye Lanjue was taking ten steps a second, his whole person like a teleportation, seemingly even carrying a phantom image.

Seeing Ye Lanjue like this, Yu Lin was so terrified he swallowed his saliva.

At this moment, Yu Lin seemed to realize that Ye Lanjue was even more powerful and terrifying than he had imagined.

Yu Lin regretted it.

He regretted that his brain had a spasm and he had agreed to the Crown Prince's absurd request.

At this moment, Yu Lin felt that he might be finished this time, and finished very badly.

However, this person, Yu Lin, was not someone who would give up easily.

So, even though he felt immense fear in his heart the moment he saw Ye Lanjue.

He still stubbornly stepped forward, wanting to stop Ye Lanjue, "Regent, you..."

Before Yu Lin could finish speaking, Ye Lanjue found him an eyesore and waved his hand.

Yu Lin was thrown away and crashed heavily into a pillar nearby, embracing it fully.

Seeing this, Chen Feng and the others just glanced at Yu Lin coldly and then stood at the courtyard entrance.

As soon as Ye Lanjue entered the room, he saw Yun Qiyue in danger, with several guards holding swords and hacking at her, and Yun Qiyue was covered in blood.

This scene caused a flash of red light to appear in Ye Lanjue's eyes, and his rage rose.

His footsteps continued at ten steps a breath, and with a wave of his hand, an aura of annihilation surged out from Ye Lanjue's hand.

At that moment, those people only felt themselves enveloped by a powerful aura, unable to move their hands or feet, and even their flesh and blood were being torn apart.

Unfortunately, before they could react, their bodies exploded on the spot.

The room was filled with the smell of blood, so thick it was almost nauseating.

Yun Qiyue was timely pulled into Ye Lanjue's embrace, and the blood did not stain either of them.

It was Crown Prince Xuanyuan Qi, lying on the bed, who was drenched in blood, feeling a chill to his heart.

Yes, the blood was cold.

Yet at this moment, Xuanyuan Qi didn't know what he was dreaming of; he had a look of terror on his face and even cried out.

Yun Qiyue heard Xuanyuan Qi's movement and struggled to get out of Ye Lanjue's embrace.

Ye Lanjue pressed Yun Qiyue's head down, "Don't move."

His voice was low and hoarse, and the red light in his eyes gradually faded.

"Imperial Uncle?" Yun Qiyue was puzzled, not knowing what Ye Lanjue was insisting on.

"It's too bloody." Ye Lanjue explained.

He was afraid of scaring her.

Upon hearing this, Yun Qiyue was slightly stunned, then pursed her lips and said, "What kind of bloodiness have I not seen?"

In her previous life, she was someone who had seen blood.

Upon hearing this, Ye Lanjue subconsciously frowned.

Then, he slowly let go of Yun Qiyue.

Yun Qiyue gained her freedom and was shocked to see the room already soaked in blood.

The moment she smelled the blood, she had already thought the scene might be a bit terrifying.

But seeing it with her own eyes, Yun Qiyue was still shocked.

How strong must the Imperial Uncle be to turn those who were strong to her into blood in that instant?

Yes, the whole room was filled with blood, not the kind of terrifying scene of flesh and bone.

Yun Qiyue subconsciously swallowed her saliva; it was reverence for the strong.

At the same time, Yun Qiyue also suddenly felt that the thigh she was hugging didn't seem to be inferior to Jiuyuan at all.

She found a treasure!

Yun Qiyue looked at Ye Lanjue with bright eyes, in a very good mood.

There was a feeling of pride.

The person she likes is just that strong.

Awesome!

And Ye Lanjue, throughout the whole process, didn't miss Yun Qiyue's reaction, not even the subtle changes in expression on her face.

But because of this, the eyebrows under Ye Lanjue's mask furrowed even tighter.
