Chapter 391: Your Majesty, Come to Save Her!

"Fine, I'm waiting!"

Before the words even fell, she struck two backhand slaps.

Clean, crisp!

Five years ago, the scene on the Broken Soul Abyss resurfaced in Ye Qingran's mind. The pent‑up hatred in her chest surged out, staining her eyes red.

In her fury, she shattered Lin Xueyan's clothing, leaving her stark naked for everyone to see.

The body, white as snow, was abruptly reflected in countless eyes.

Han Xing Leng Yue thoughtfully covered the two children's eyes to spare them from corruption.

Lin Xueyan, isn't that the best face?

Then she'll strip her of all dignity!

Lin Xueyan watched helplessly as her clothes shattered into powder, and a wave of cold swept over her, making her feel as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

Her body was thus seen by hundreds of men!

She was mortified to the point of wanting to die!

The Lin Family members, upon seeing this, were both shocked and angry, and Lin Zhishang especially wanted to intervene.

Ye Qingran's eyes darkened, her thoughts shifted, and she erected a Barrier around herself that no one could approach.

In her ears came a voice as cold as a Shura.

"Lin Xueyan, are you desperate? Do you wish you could kill me?"

She whispered into Lin Xueyan's ear.

How could one not be desperate?

She was immobilized, allowing others to look at her body.

She wished she could slash Ye Qingran to pieces!

Lin Xueyan clenched her teeth, bone‑gnawing hatred flashing in her eyes.

Ye Qingran, however, lifted her lips in a smile.

"Hatred is appropriate," Ye Qingran whispered close to Lin Xueyan's ear, smiling like a Yingsu, "Five years ago, on the Broken Soul Abyss, she... was also full of hatred."

Her?

Lin Xueyan's eyes widened, and a flash of terror suddenly appeared.

"You aren't Ye Qingran; who on earth are you?"

Ye Qingran is a good‑for‑nothing waste, she said; how could five years turn a waste into a genius?

"Me? I'm here to avenge you... Shura!"

A dagger materialized out of thin air in Ye Qingran's hand.

"Do you recognize it?"

When Lin Xueyan saw the dagger, her pupils contracted sharply.

That dagger was the very one she and Ye Huanhuan used years ago to cut open Ye Qingran's abdomen!

Back then, they abandoned the dagger on the spot, not expecting Ye Qingran to pick it up.

The dagger, well‑maintained by Ye Qingran, looked extremely sharp, reflecting a chilling gleam.

"If I make a light slash, your belly will split in two instantly, exposing the organs inside, tsk tsk..."

Lin Xueyan was horrified to the extreme.

"Ye Qingran, you can't treat me like this!"

"Can't? Then open your eyes wide and see whether I can or not."

The dagger twirled, and under Lin Xueyan's horrified gaze, it landed on her face.

Ye Qingran replicated, one‑to‑one, the disfigurement she suffered onto Lin Xueyan's face!

The moment the dagger struck, blood splattered everywhere!

Ye Qingran's long dress of Heavenly Silkworm Silk was stained with blood, making her look like a death god.

Everyone stared in horror at the scene.

They never imagined Ye Qingran could have such a terrifying side!

"Xueyan!"

The Lin Family members wore horrified expressions.

Before a Mysterious Patriarch Strongman, they were as weak as ants!

The pain in her face was tearing, heart‑rending. Lin Xueyan knew her face was ruined without looking in a mirror!

Her stunning beauty was thus destroyed by Ye Qingran!

"Ye Qingran, I won't let you go! Your Majesty is arriving soon! He will kill you!"

Lin Xueyan shouted loudly, like a vengeful spirit.

Everyone was stunned.

Lin Xueyan asked, is Your Majesty coming soon?

She meant that the Emperor Sovereign of the Zhu Lu Zhi Dian would descend upon Jin Luan Hall today?

"Ye Qingran, stop right now! Otherwise, the Emperor Sovereign of the Zhu Lu Zhi Dian won't spare you!" Upon hearing that the Emperor Sovereign of the Zhu Lu Zhi Dian was coming, Dongfang Ling'er's eyes flashed, and she shouted loudly.

She even thought, if the Emperor Sovereign of the Zhu Lu Zhi Dian favored her, wouldn't she become one of the most honored women on the continent?

With her looks, even if she couldn't become the Lady of the Zhu Lu Zhi Dian, she could at least be a concubine, right?

She felt excited just thinking about it.

"Is that so? I'm waiting."

Ye Qingran smiled indifferently.

The dagger in her hand, pressed to Lin Xueyan's face, slid down, leaving a streak of blood on her pale body.

"Where does it start again?"

Ye Qingran traced with the dagger on Lin Xueyan's abdomen, "Is it here, or here?"

Fear flooded Lin Xueyan's heart; she thought Ye Qingran had gone mad!

"Ye Qingran, the one who cut open your belly back then wasn't me, it was Ye Huanhuan!"

Lin Xueyan whispered, fearing someone might hear.

"Is that so? Then I'll show great mercy—how about opening a slightly smaller wound?"

Lin Xueyan, filled with hatred, said, "Ye Qingran, you're so vicious—aren't you afraid of Heavenly Punishment?"

Facing Heavenly Punishment?

Ye Qingran could barely suppress a laugh. If the wicked are punished by Heavenly Punishment, why after five years have Ye Huanhuan and Lin Xueyan each fared better than the other?

"If revenge brings Heavenly Punishment, then I'll wait!" she said, and the blood‑stained dagger was about to slash Lin Xueyan's abdomen.

"What are you doing?"

A deep voice came from outside Jin Luan Hall, booming like thunder, ringing in everyone's ears.

Everyone was startled.

Their gazes instinctively turned toward the hall's exterior.

The instant Lin Xueyan heard that voice, starlight shimmered in her eyes, and she nearly wept with joy!

Your Majesty, they're coming to save her!

She knew Your Majesty would never ignore her!

With Your Majesty backing her, she would make Ye Qingran pay a grievous price!

Yet outside the hall, a silhouette stood against the backlight.

Ten thousand rays of light bathed him, making him appear like a celestial deity cloaked in multicolored sunrise glow.

He strode forward, his towering, upright, muscular frame and handsome visage becoming clearer, making one's soul dissolve and spirit overturn!

He stood in the hall's center, exuding a demigod's bearing and imperial aura, encompassing sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, heaven and earth, his brilliance untouchable.

"National Master!" Donglin Emperor, upon seeing Fu Hanxiu, was first stunned, then his face lit with delight.

He had naturally invited the National Master, even reserving a seat for him, yet had never expected him to appear.

Unexpectedly, he really came, which left him feeling flattered and astonished.

Upon hearing the title "National Master," the three National Lords exchanged glances, each seeing surprise in the other's eyes.

Donglin Country has a National Master known throughout the Central Region. It is said this National Master is extremely mysterious, his methods reach the heavens. Back then, had it not been for him, Donglin Country might not have perished, but it would never have achieved the present era of prosperity.

They had long been curious about this National Master, and did not expect that this visit to Donglin would actually allow them to meet the legendary National Master.
