Thump!
Before the Palace Lord could get up from the ground, he was pushed back down once again. His pale face was filled with hopelessness as he directed a hate-filled glare towards Qianbei Ye.
The other elders had ugly looks on their faces as well as they never thought that Qianbei Ye would turn out to be the Underworlds creator! They had lost their leverage since they had previously intended to use his position as Young Master to threaten Qianbei Ye!
Huang Ying gently lowered her gaze. Even though she had remained silent, a wave of peril washed over her heart.
She has thoroughly underestimated Qianbei Ye!
If she had known that he has such a powerful background, she would have exhausted all means to obtain his heart!
However, she was never really interested in Qianbei Ye at the beginning and had only approached him under her fathers others! Therefore, she had not used any schemes at all! After finding out about Qianbei Yes true identity and witnessing his devotion towards Gu Ruoyun, how could she not feel regret?
No woman could resist the charms of such a devoted yet powerful man!
Ancestral Elder, did you say that Qianbei Ye is the Underworlds creator? How can this be> How could something like this have happened? The Palace Lord laughed bitterly as he gently shut his eyes while his heart trembled strongly.
The white-robed elder scoffed icily before he turned to face Qianbei Ye and asked respectfully, Master, may I ask how do you wish for us to deal with these people?
Ever since he had exposed Qianbei Yes identity, he no longer addressed him as the Young Master and had reverted to his manner of address from ten thousand years ago.
Everyone must be punished according to the clans law.
Qianbei Yes voice was cold and distant without a trace of humanity.
No! The Palace Lord quickly rose to his feet when he heard this. His eyes turned red with anxiety as he cried out in panic, Yinger is innocent, you cant do this to her!
According to the clans law, any subordinate who has offended their superior would be executed by a thousand cuts!
This was the Underworlds true cruelty!
Yuner, were done with the matters here. Its time for us to leave the Dark Earth Realm.
Qianbei Ye did not seem to hear the Palace Lords cries as he stared gently at the woman in his arms and curled his lips.
Alright.
Gu Ruoyun nodded. She was fighting against time now so she would naturally not waste it in the Underworld.
As she had obtained the Blood Drop Fruit, she should now head off to search for the Ancient Dragons Bile in the Dragon Clan.
Young Master, no! You cant do this! The clans punishment is too severe and Yinger has done nothing wrong. Besides, we had merely wanted you to marry Yinger. Even if we were in the wrong, our crimes do not merit death!
The Palace Lords eyes turned red and he wanted to lunge forward to pull the corner of Qianbei Yes robe. However, the Ancestral Elders had restrained him before he could even touch Qianbei Ye.
You said that youve done nothing wrong? Qianbei Ye slowly turned around and his gloomy eyes landed upon Huang Ying.
This was the first time he had looked straight at Huang Ying. His gaze, however, made her tremble.
She had called herself the Young Madam and thats the worst crime! Everyone else must also receive the clans punishment with no exceptions!
Thump!
The Palace Lords legs gave way and he crumbled to the ground once again.
He had been truly mistaken! However, he never thought that he would end up with no hope of reprieve because of this one mistake.
Theres one more thing. Qianbei Ye looked at the Ancestral Elders as he coldly issued his order, The Heavenly Moon Emperor had dared to stage an assassination attempt on me and Yuner. You two will handle this matter, I want that Emperor to suffer a fate worse than death!
As you command!
The two Ancestral Elders joined their fists in unison as they replied.
Wait a minute. Gu Ruoyun suddenly remembered something and called out to the two Ancestral Elders. The son of the Heavenly Moon Empires General, Li Qing, is my friend. Therefore, only attack the Heavenly Moon Emperor. Dont hurt the members of the Generals Mansion by mistake.
Understood.
The two did not hesitate and responded immediately.
Lets go.
After Qianbei Ye had issued his instructions, he then wrapped his arm around Gu Ruoyun before exiting the Clan Hall.
Now that those two old geezers health has been restored, the Underworld can be set aside for the time being. The current task is more urgent and restoring my brother-in-laws body is more important
