Chapter 418: Can You Really Save Her?

Ye Qingran trembled with anger.

"Ye Qingran, back then I destroyed your appearance, stole your Spiritual Root, ripped out your child, pushed you off a cliff—so what? Don't you still have no way to handle me?"

Behind her, Xiao Lu laughed sardonically, "Ye Qingran, you really are a pitiful worm!"

"Xing Er, Yue Er..."

Ye Qingran shouted toward the outside.

"Two lowly maidservants, and you still expect them to help you?"

Ye Huanhuan laughed wildly.

"But don't be afraid, I won't kill you. Because I want you to see clearly how I will triumphantly replace you!"

"Ahahaha~"

Ye Huanhuan's demonic laughter filled Ting Yu Xuan.

"Ye Huanhuan, what are you doing?"

A questioning voice came from behind, and the smile on Ye Huanhuan's face stiffened.

Even without turning around, she had already guessed the newcomer's identity.

Dongfang Qingxuan.

The man she had once been enamored of.

But he abandoned her for Ye Qingran!

A storm gathered in her eyes, yet at the moment she saw Dongfang Qingxuan, it calmed.

"Crown Prince, why are you here?"

"What are you doing in Ye Qingran's room?"

Dongfang Qingxuan furrowed his brows, showing a disdainful, suspicious attitude.

It deeply pierced Ye Huanhuan's eyes.

Even though she had met many men on Nan Yin Zhou who surpassed Dongfang Qingxuan, he remained a knot in her heart.

The man she deeply loved, when facing her, displayed such an attitude!

How could she not hate?

"Crown Prince, what else can I do? It's merely to come see my dear sister and, while at it, bid her farewell."

Farewell?

"What nonsense are you spouting?!"

"What, Crown Prince, you didn't know? My sister is about to die... If you don't believe me, look."

Ye Huanhuan shifted to the side, and after Dongfang Qingxuan hesitated for a few seconds, he stepped forward a few paces and saw the figure lying on the bed.

Gaunt and on the brink of death.

These were the two words that flashed in his mind in an instant.

He could hardly believe his own eyes.

She had once been radiant and dazzling, sharp as a blade, like a sky full of stars and a scorching sun. Yet now she resembled a campfire about to burn out, struggling feebly in the bleak cold wind, unable to escape the fate of extinction.

"How could... impossible..."

Dongfang Qingxuan's face turned ashen, his tall frame hunched, utterly at a loss.

"Crown Prince, did you see clearly? My sister really is about to die!"

"Then, Crown Prince, why not properly bid my sister farewell today?"

"Otherwise, perhaps there will never be another chance!"

Ye Huanhuan muttered sarcastically from the side.

"Shut up!"

Dongfang Qingxuan turned around and roared loudly.

Ye Huanhuan was startled by his terrifying demeanor, her complexion paling further.

The light in her eyes grew colder.

Dongfang Qingxuan, you'd rather like Ye Qingran than like me, right?

What a pity, she's about to die!

Even if she's still alive, I won't do as you wish!

I will make you live forever in pain!

Forever!

Ye Huanhuan's eyes were filled with intense madness.

After the two left, Ye Qingran brushed her hand across her face; the gauntness and fatigue vanished, replaced by a radiant, stunning visage.

She sat up.

"Miss. It seems Ye Huanhuan truly believed it."

Ye Qingran gave a cold smile, "She can't not believe!"

"How is Yun Zhi over there?"

Han Xing replied, "I have already, per your command, hidden Yun Zhi, and temporarily drawn Yun Zhi's soul into the Soul-Attracting Pearl; Yun Zhi's life token should already be shattered."

Ye Qingran nodded.

The reason for doing so was to make the Behind-the-Scenes Person believe she had killed Yun Zhi.

"Then let's watch quietly. I think it won't be long before the Behind-the-Scenes Person appears!"

Ye Qingran whispered, a cold gleam flashing in her eyes.

"Miss, Ye Huanhuan over there..."

Ye Qingran looked at Leng Yue, knowing the intention behind her words that she had not spoken.

She narrowed her eyes, "The day the Behind-the-Scenes Person appears is the day Ye Huanhuan descends into hell!"

Ye Huanhuan and Dongfang Qingxuan left Ting Yu Xuan one after another.

"Qing Xuan brother..."

Ye Huanhuan shouted affectedly behind Dongfang Qingxuan's back.

"Don't shout at me like that!"

Ye Huanhuan wasn't annoyed either, "Qing Xuan brother, you used to like me shouting at you like that."

"That was in the past!"

"How come, Qing Xuan brother, you don't like me anymore?"

Dongfang Qingxuan stared straight at Ye Huanhuan, his eyes filled only with disgust.

He really was blind back then, actually falling for Ye Huanhuan, thinking she was a woman as brilliant as the stars, and insisted on marrying her as Crown Princess.

"Qing Xuan brother, do you now like Ye Qingran?"

Dongfang Qingxuan's eyes flashed, his gaze at Ye Huanhuan full of coldness.

Ye Huanhuan, however, was not the slightest bit afraid.

She was already, no longer the former Ye Huanhuan.

"Qing Xuan brother, if I tell you I have a way to save Ye Qingran, would you believe me?"

Dongfang Qingxuan suddenly grabbed Ye Huanhuan's shoulders, "What did you say?"

Seeing the fish bite, Ye Huanhuan didn't even care about the pain in her shoulder, "I said, I can let Ye Qingran not die."

"Impossible!"

"Don't believe me?" Ye Huanhuan lifted her chin, exuding confident arrogance, "You should know, behind me is a major power of Nan Yin Zhou." As she spoke, she displayed her own strength, leaving Dongfang Qingxuan greatly astonished.

"Surprised?" Ye Huanhuan gave a cold smile, "The power behind me can boost my strength so quickly in a short time, naturally I also have a way to keep Ye Qingran from dying!"

"What do you want?"

Dongfang Qingxuan looked at her warily.

Ye Huanhuan's gaze swept up and down Dongfang Qingxuan, the smile on her face becoming increasingly wanton.

"Qing Xuan brother, if you agree to spend one night of intimacy with me, I will guarantee Ye Qingran's safety, how about that?"

Dongfang Qingxuan, you don't like Ye Qingran?

But I just won't let you have your wish.

I want you to like her while also sleeping with me, letting you suffer torment!

This is the consequence of your betrayal of me!

"Impossible!"

Dongfang Qingxuan refused without even thinking.

Now seeing Ye Huanhuan makes him feel nauseous; how could he possibly do that kind of thing with her?

Ye Huanhuan wasn't annoyed either, "Qing Xuan brother, you need to weigh the pros and cons clearly."

Her voice carried a seductive allure.

Dongfang Qingxuan remained silent for a long time.

"Can you really save her?"

"Save her?"

"Hehe."

Leaving aside that Ye Qingran's death is already set in stone, beyond remedy. Even if she had this ability, she could not possibly save Ye Qingran.

She would rather Ye Qingran go die.

The more miserable her death, the better.

She nodded, "Of course."

Dongfang Qingxuan's eyes deepened.

"Alright, I agree. If you can't do it, I'll kill you!"

"Great!"

"Kill her?"

Dongfang Qingxuan, what gives you the right?
