Chapter 732: You Rebellious Girl!

Nonsense!

Yun Lan angrily flicked her sleeve, her face full of anger, "Xiao Ran, since you are my niece, I won't argue with you, but what about you? How have you treated me? You keep slandering me over and over!"

"Whether I have slandered you, you know best. Of course, if you don't admit it, that's fine; after all, I have evidence."

Evidence?

A faint dark glint flashed in Yun Lan's eyes.

She has always been meticulous, leaving almost no trace in her deeds. As for those she used, she dealt with them cleanly; where did Ye Qingran get the evidence?

Perhaps Ye Qingran is merely bluffing.

Thinking that, Yun Lan calmed down, "Is that so? Then I'd like to see what evidence you have!"

"Yun Hai, come here for a moment."

Ye Qingran kept her gaze steady and shouted loudly.

When Yun Hai heard his name called, his body trembled, then he obediently walked toward Ye Qingran.

The onlookers stared at Yun Hai, their faces unable to hide surprise.

Why is Yun Hai so obedient?

Who in the Yun Tribe doesn't know that the five off‑branch heroes are each more arrogant than the last and all followers of Miss Yun Lan, yet when did they start obeying Ye Qingran?

"Hai'er, what are you doing?!"

Yun Tinglu, Yun Hai's father, was both shocked and angry to see his son being commanded by Ye Qingran.

They are Miss Yun Lan's people! If Yun Hai does this and angers her, the whole family could be doomed!

Yet Yun Hai seemed not to hear it and quickly approached Ye Qingran.

"Yun Hai, I ask you, did Yun Lan ever order you to kill me?"

Ye Qingran glared at Yun Hai and asked lightly.

"This…" Yun Hai instinctively glanced at Yun Lan, saw her grim expression and warning in her eyes, and a wave of dread rose within him.

Nevertheless, he swallowed his fear and admitted, "Yes."

The crowd was stunned.

Yun Hai actually admitted it!

Could it really be like this?

"Miss Yun Lan personally instructed me to keep an eye on Ye Qingran, and once discovered, to certainly execute her!"

Those words made everyone's hearts skip a beat.

Of course, this execution isn't literal; after all, the bloodline curse is in place—who in the Yun Tribe would dare kill Ye Qingran?

Even if a non‑Yun person obeyed Yun Lan's order and killed Ye Qingran, Yun Lan herself would suffer backlash.

Nevertheless, from those words one can hear how intense Yun Lan's murderous intent toward Ye Qingran is.

Even if she can't kill her, she would likely imprison and torment her.

Yun Lan could hardly believe Yun Hai would betray her.

It's not that she doubts Yun Hai's loyalty; rather, she placed a gu on him, and if he betrays her, he'll die a terrible death.

"Yun Hai, were you threatened by her? I'll give you another chance; tell me clearly!"

Yun Lan tried to activate the mysterious gu inside Yun Hai, but she was surprised to find it had no effect!

What's going on?

Did Yun Hai himself dissolve the mysterious gu?

"No, that's impossible!" Under the heavens, no one can dissolve the mysterious gu!

Yun Lan's expression shifted unpredictably; she instinctively looked at Ye Qingran and saw a subtly meaningful smile directed at her.

She instantly understood—it must be Ye Qingran who meddled!

"Miss Yun Lan, everything I say is the truth."

Yun Hai said firmly.

Yun Tinglu's legs went weak, his face turned pale, and he almost fainted to death.

"Rebel son!" he whispered angrily, nearly choking.

"Is this the evidence you speak of?" Yun Lan furrowed her brows, sneering, "It's just Yun Hai's one‑sided testimony!"

"Is that so?"

Ye Qingran seemed to have anticipated Yun Lan's words and replied calmly, "What if you add them as well?"

As the words fell, the remaining four of the five off‑branch heroes also stepped forward one after another.

They didn't ascend the platform; instead, they spoke from the ground one after another.

"Yun Lan ordered us to guard the Neicheng gate today, preventing Ye Qingran from entering the city; if we see her, we will arrest her at any cost."

"Miss Yun Lan instructed me to send people to all major regions to monitor Ye Qingran's movements and arrest her at any cost!"

The other four of the five heroes said almost the same, all targeting Ye Qingran.

The Yun Tribe members could hardly believe Yun Lan would do this.

Yun Ba Hai was at that moment burning with impatience and shouted loudly, "They must have been controlled by Ye Qingran to utter such nonsense!"

Those words seemed to remind everyone: the five heroes have always obeyed Yun Lan, so how could they suddenly betray? Could they truly be controlled by Ye Qingran?

But before they could doubt long, a solemn voice rang in their ears.

"I swear by the blood of the Yun Tribe, if any part of what I just said is false, I am willing to endure ten thousand thunder punishments and be shattered to pieces!"

It turned out that Yun Hai and the other off‑branch heroes were simultaneously taking the oath!

The Yun Tribe members naturally understood the gravity of swearing by their blood, and for a moment there was no doubt left.

It seems the five heroes' words are true; Yun Lan indeed intends to put Ye Qingran to death!

Yun Batian simply couldn't believe what he was hearing.

His daughter actually went to kill his granddaughter!

Ye Qingran is also Yun Lan's biological niece!

How could she bring herself to do it?

"You rebellious girl!" Yun Batian was so furious his chest heaved, almost vomiting blood.

Ye Qingran was certain that, if she hadn't been treating his wounds, detoxifying, and nurturing him these past days, Yun Batian would have died from rage.

"Why are you so worked up? Her deeds aren't just these." Ye Qingran gave a cold smile, then suddenly said to a certain corner of the audience: "Wasn't the plan to expose Yun Lan's crimes to the public? Then come out!"

Everyone followed Ye Qingran's gaze.

In an inconspicuous corner, a young woman walked out, her appearance quite ordinary.

But her eyes flashed with an unusual light.

Yun Tinglan stood below the stage, looking at Yun Lan above, a bone-deep hatred showing in her eyes.

Yun Lan sealed her memories, abandoned her in a mountain village far from home, making her live on the path Yun Lan had set for her, without dignity.

Because of Yun Lan, she did a series of foolish things, even nearly getting Ye Qingran killed!

Fortunately, Ye Qingran's unmatched wit saw through Yun Lan's scheme; otherwise they...

"Who are you?" Yun Lan's expression changed upon seeing Yun Tinglan, and a sense of foreboding rose in her heart.

Although the person's appearance was unfamiliar, it gave her an uncomfortable feeling.

"Who am I?" Yun Tinglan hearing this couldn't help but smirk sarcastically.

Upon hearing Yun Tinglan's voice, Yun Lan's pupils contracted—she already knew the other's identity.

"I'm Yun Zhi! Have you forgotten me?" Yun Tinglan stepped closer to Yun Lan.

Yun Tinglan!

It really is Yun Tinglan!

She's actually still alive!

"Oh, I'm not called Yun Zhi anymore; I'm... Yun! Ting! Lan!"

Yun Tinglan?!

Compared to the name Yun Zhi, Yun Tinglan is obviously better known.

Especially among the outer city branch lines, the name Yun Tinglan is known to every household.

"Yun Tinglan? Yun Lingsong's daughter?"

"Wasn't it said she went missing a few years ago?"

"Not just missing—rumor has it her life token shattered too!"

Back then, Yun Tinglan's disappearance caused a stir throughout the outer city, with everyone guessing she might have been abducted and killed like Yun Ling.

However, the matter eventually fizzled out.

Who would have thought that, after several years, Yun Tinglan would return!

Yun Tinglan, greetings to the clan leader.

Yun Tinglan gave Yun Batian a salute.

"What did she do to you?" Yun Batian asked, heartbroken.

These years he's been muddled and unaware of Yun Tinglan's affairs; after all, to him as clan leader, Yun Tinglan, a branch line member, is merely an insignificant figure.

Yun Tinglan narrowed her eyes and proclaimed: "Back then, I truly was kidnapped. But my kidnapper was no one else—it was Yun Lan!"

When Yun Tinglan spoke Yun Lan's name, she suddenly pointed a finger at her.
