Su Yunxian could not believe her eyes. She trembled as she looked in the direction of Xiao Yan. The breath that hung in her throat had not been released yet, but she watched as a surge of spiritual power pierced through the veins in her neck.

Suddenly, blood spurted out from the wound on Su Yunxians neck like a fountain.

Her fragile body convulsed on the ground and kept twitching. Su Yunxians eyes widened in terror as she watched the splattered blood on her face.

Xiao Yan, on the other hand, took a step back the moment she was about to spit out blood. He coldly maintained a certain distance from Su Yunxian. The way he looked at her was as if he was looking at something unsightly, so cold that it seemed like he could freeze her.

Her body twitched and writhed, but she couldnt utter a single cry.

At that moment, she finally understood that the man in front of her did not spare her. He wanted her to live and feel pain. He wanted to torture her in the cruelest way until she swallowed her last breath.

Su Yunxians eyes widened unwillingly until she could no longer breathe, and her eyes lost all signs of life.

Xiao Yan didnt even bother to spare Su Yunxian a glance. His voice was indifferent and without any ripples, Lets go.

Dong Yan was frightened by Xiao Yans actions that he dared not make a sound. After hurriedly nodded his head, and left this troublesome place with Xiao Yan.

Time flew by. The next morning, the news of Su Yunxians death reached Su Qians ears.

In the room, Su Qian, who had not slept well due to Xiao Yans actions throughout the night, propped her chin on her hand and asked in disbelief, Youre saying that Su Yunxian is dead?

Qian Rong, who stood in front of the bed and reported this matter, nodded like pounding garlic. Yes, Young Miss. 1 received the news from the Su family. Its guaranteed to be true. 1 heard that Young Miss of the Su family was killed by a thief and her body was mutilated.

Thieves? How could someone target the Su family when they are already in such a state? Are they not suffering enough? Su Qian frowned and asked in confusion.

Qian Rong shook her head with a confused expression when she heard this.

Then, she said, 1 heard this news from our spy in the Su family. At present, the Su family has not spread the news yet. However, the Su family had always been ruthless. Perhaps someone wanted to take advantage of their current weakness to kill Su Yunxian?

Qian Rongs speculation made sense, but for some reason, Su Qian felt that things werent that simple.

However, Su Qian didnt dwell on it and withdrew her gaze with indifference. Dont worry about this matter anymore. If shes dead, so be it.

Qian Rong nodded in agreement and hurriedly helped Su Qian up. She a.s.sisted her sit down at the table and handed her a cup of tea. Then she carefully said, Master, theres one more thing

Speak. Su Qians expression remained indifferent as she gently skimmed the foam off the tea with the lid.

Ninth Prince came over early in the morning and is waiting for you in the hall. As soon as Qian Rong finished speaking, she noticed Su Qian reveal an unhappy expression.

Su Qian was about to drink her tea when she stopped. She raised her head and looked at Qian Rong unhappily. Her tone was so cold that it seemed like it was about to freeze, Who allowed him to enter?

Su Qians words frightened Qian Rong.

Qian Rong had noticed yesterday that for some reason, her Master seemed to have fallen out with the Ninth Prince. She had clearly said that she would stay in the Imperial Residence last night, but she came back in a rage in the middle of the night. It could be seen that something must have happened between her Master and the Ninth Prince.

Seeing Su Qians sharp gaze fixed upon her, Qian Rong said aggrievedly, 1,1 didnt want to let His Highness in, but His Highness insisted on coming in. I couldnt just chase him away.
