Chapter 436: Guess what happens in the next chapter?

Ting Yu Xuan

"Miss, Yun Lan has arrived."

Leng Yue gathered news from outside and returned immediately to report.

Ye Qingran opened her eyes from meditation.

"She came rather quickly."

Ye Qingran's lips curved slightly, showing no trace of fear in her eyes.

It seemed as if she were not about to face a princess of the Yunfu of Nan Yin Zhou, but a nobody.

"This Yun Lan probably had already colluded with the Xu Kong Gongzi; on Xuanwu Street, before countless Xiliang citizens, they sang in harmony, casting Ye Huanhuan's affair aside cleanly."

Ye Qingran was no different.

"She certainly wouldn't admit it. Someone like her would never leave evidence behind."

Leng Yue nodded; she actually understood too, just feeling a bit indignant.

Ye Qingran stood up. "Bing Er, you and Xiaohu Xiaocheng stay in Ting Yu Xuan; Xing Er and Yue Er, follow me out to meet her!"

The three nodded in agreement.

"'Mother, I also want to go with you to confront that old witch!'"

"'Mother, I also want to!'"

Xiao Hu and Xiao Chen looked at Ye Qingran with eager eyes.

This time, Ye Qingran did not indulge them.

The enemy outside was extraordinary—it was the top-secret Yin Tribe Yunfu of Nan Yin Zhou; even she dared not be the slightest bit careless.

"'Xiao Hu, Xiao Chen, listen.'"

Ye Qingran then squatted down, stroking their cheeks.

Xiaohu Xiaocheng weren't just looking for excitement; they had sensed danger and couldn't bear to let their mother face it alone.

"'Alright then, Mother, promise us you'll take good care of yourself!'"

"'Mother, rest assured, we'll wait here for you to return.'"

Ye Qingran's heart softened.

Her sons were so sensible it made her heart ache!

To avoid being at a disadvantage, Ye Qingran brought some trusted aides from Medicine King Valley and An Ye Diao—all top experts; with them protecting the two little ones in the dark, she had no worries behind her.

"'Princess, this is the place.'"

The Xu Kong Gongzi stood before Yun Lan's carriage, pointing ahead at the Ye Residence and said.

Yun Lan curled the corner of her lips.

"Probably, aside from herself, no one present knew that she had already come to the Ye Residence ten years ago!"

"'My dear sister, you could never imagine even in death that ten years ago I personally struck you down, sending you to the West; ten years later I have returned here, and your daughter will also die by my hand!'"

Inside the carriage, Yun Lan extended her hand, slowly clenching it into a fist.

Her eyes were filled with a mad, triumphant smile.

Two beautiful maidens stepped forward, lifting the light gauze to either side; a figure emerged from within.

At the sight of Yun Lan's appearance, everyone gasped in astonishment.

"\"Beautiful! \""

Everyone's gaze was tinged with infatuation.

It must be said, Yun Lan is truly beautiful, a beauty that shows its sharp edges.

"'Princess, truly the number one beauty of Nan Yin Zhou!'"

The Xu Kong Gongzi clapped his hands, laughing as he spoke.

Yun Lan, curling her lips, accepted it calmly: "Thank you."

The Yunfu of Nan Yin Zhou produces handsome men and beautiful women; the region's top handsome man and top beauty are both there.

Back then, her sister Yun Ling was the number one beauty of Nan Yin Zhou; living in her sister's radiance, she herself was dim and obscure, making her extremely jealous.

Fortunately, her good sister had a beautiful but short life!

Now, she Yun Lan is the number one beauty of Nan Yin Zhou!

At that moment, the gates of the Ye Residence opened slowly, and Ye Qingran stepped out, accompanied by Han Xing Leng Yue.

Everyone's gaze turned once more to Ye Qingran.

Just moments ago, they were still immersed in the shock of Yun Lan's magnificent beauty; but when they saw Ye Qingran, they suddenly felt that even if Yun Lan were beautiful, she still fell short of Ye Qingran by a fraction.

Hard to put into words where she falls short, but if you place them side by side for comparison, Yun Lan simply isn't as good-looking as Ye Qingran.

Yun Lan herself noticed this as well.

She narrowed her eyes slightly, a cold light flashing in the depths.

Back then, she was overshadowed by her sister Yun Ling; now her daughter makes her dim again—how can she bear it?

"\"Damn it! \""

She cursed inwardly.

The jealousy in her eyes turned into intense killing intent, shooting toward Ye Qingran like blades.

Ye Qingran raised her gaze, meeting those hateful eyes.

Their gazes met in the void.

By seniority, Yun Lan counts as her aunt.

But it's obvious she saw no gentleness whatsoever in this aunt.

In her eyes there was only jealousy and killing intent.

Just like before, she was jealous of her mother Yun Sui Feng.

Ye Qingran's lips slowly curved into a sarcastic arc.

As Ye Qingran approached, Yun Lan looked at her more and more, her heart growing increasingly startled.

After not seeing her for a while, Ye Qingran had become stunningly gorgeous?

At that moment, she thought she saw her former sister Yun Ling!

Deep in her heart, panic suddenly surged up.

She told herself in her heart, Yun Ling was dead and would never return!

The princess of Yunfu could only be her; no one else had the right to compete with her!

"The Yunfu of Nan Yin Zhou? What a rare guest!"

"You must be Ye Qingran, right?"

Yun Lan spoke slowly, her tone carrying a sense of superiority from looking down.

"Exactly." Ye Qingran nodded, then showed a doubtful expression, "This elder sister, who are you?"

"Elder sister?"

Everyone looked at Ye Qingran with shocked eyes.

This Yunfu princess, who looks only about twenty, Ye Qingran actually called her elder sister?

In the crowd, Xia Zhimeng and the others who had rushed over upon hearing the wind couldn't help but burst out laughing.

This is so very Ran Jie!

Yun Lan's complexion was somewhat uncontrollable.

Ye Qingran, actually calling her elder sister in front of so many people?

She must be doing it on purpose!

As expected, she grew up in a remote, backward place, completely lacking any refinement!

"This is Princess Yun Lan of the Yunfu in Nan Yin Zhou."

The Xu Kong Gongzi said from the side.

"So it's Princess Yun Lan of the Yunfu in Nan Yin Zhou. My apologies, I don't know why Princess Yun Lan has come to my Ye Residence—what brings you here?"

"Ye Qingran, let me ask you—did you kill Yun Zhi?"

Yun Lan stared at Ye Qingran, not missing any change in her expression.

Unexpectedly, Ye Qingran first froze, then shook her head in denial: "No, I didn't kill her."

"Isn't it? But many people saw you take Yun Zhi away, and after that, no one ever saw her again. Moreover, Yun Zhi's life tablet has shattered—how do you explain that?"

"It's true I took Yun Zhi away, but I didn't kill her."

Yun Lan furrowed her brows slightly, then sneered: "You say that, but isn't that contradictory? Then I ask you—where is Yun Zhi?"

Ye Qingran spread her hands: "I don't know."

She had set Yun Zhi free; she truly didn't know where Yun Zhi lived now.

"Ye Qingran, I've already gathered sufficient evidence—do you still want to quibble?"

"Oh? Princess Yun Lan, what evidence have you collected? Bring it out for everyone to see."

The Xu Kong Gongzi gave a cold snort: "Princess, why waste so many words on her? This kind of person should just be killed! Otherwise, people will think the Yunfu of Nan Yin Zhou is easy to bully."

"Someone, seize Ye Qingran for me!"

Yun Lan's face turned cold and grim as she flicked her slender jade hand.

Behind her, the experts stepped out one by one, each exuding shocking killing intent.

There were actually eighteen of them!

Moreover, the aura they emitted showed that they were all experts of the Profound Venerable Realm.

"Eighteen Profound Venerable experts!"

Everyone was nearly scared stupid.

They had never seen so many Profound Venerable experts before.

"Even if Ye Qingran is a Profound Venerable, two fists can't fight four hands!"

Many people anxiously worried for Ye Qingran.

But,
