465 The Third Prince's Visit (Part 2)

Wu Ju smiled. It's getting late.

Xia Hongming looked at Liu Sanniang. Master Wu Ju is right. It's getting late. I won't disturb Miss Liu's rest.

Liu Sanniang said, Take care, Third Prince.

Xia Hongming looked at the crystal clear immortal meat on the ground and instructed indignantly. Let's go back!

Xia Hongming left with his men. The guard with a mutilated hand walked to Wu Ju's side and asked for help. Wu Ju reached out and grabbed his hand. The guard's hand healed instantly.

Liu Sanniang picked up the cloth to wrap the meat up. Chu Yan closed the door and watched her put the meat away before getting some water to wash her hands.

When Liu Sanniang was about to return to her room, Chu Yan grabbed her hand and pinched it gently.

Liu Sanniang blushed. Chu Yan, it's time to rest.

Chu Yan looked at her face, his eyes as dark as ink. Yes, I know.

He knew it was time to rest, but he just couldn't wait anymore.

If Chu Yan did not let go, Liu Sanniang would not be able to break free. The two of them had been together for so long that she knew Chu Yan well. She knew that he was very dangerous. She also knew that he had tucked away his dangerous side, so she was safe.

Chu Yan pinched Liu Sanniang's palm and looked at her quietly. His eyes darkened. Why are you so obedient?

Liu Sanniang looked at Chu Yan. Because I believe you.

She chose to believe Chu Yan because they were already engaged and would eventually be married. She gradually convinced herself into believing that he would not hurt her no matter what.

Chu Yan almost couldn't control himself. His Adam's apple bobbed as he smiled and let go. Go to sleep.

If he did not let go, he would only be torturing himself.

Chu Yan let go and Liu Sanniang turned around to enter the room.

He chuckled and returned to his room as well.

General Black had already become one with the pitch-black night, silently guarding Liu Sanniang.

At this moment, the Crown Prince's mansion was lit up.

Although Xia Hongyuan had taken Hui Zhen away from Xuanyi Department, Hui Zhen looked like she was on the verge of death. He did not know what to do.

To find out what happened, Xia Hongyuan even summoned Yuan Hui and Xu Bo. After all, they were also at Suzhai Pavilion at that time. Xia Hongyuan finally knew the sequence of the events. His face darkened. He really could not believe that Hui Zhen would be defeated by Liu Sanniang.

She had spent a lot of effort setting up a trap for Liu Sanniang, but she did not go there at all.

Xu Bo and Yuan Hui lent Hui Zhen some power that was just enough to keep her breathing.

Xu Bo and Yuan Hui retracted their hands. Xia Hongyuan hurriedly went forward and asked. Masters, how is it? Is Master Hui Zhen alright?

Yuan Hui took a deep breath and said, Your Highness, Hui Zhen is suffering from the burning of the Karmic flame. We can't do anything about it. At this moment, I'm afraid only Miss Liu has the answer.

From the beginning, Liu Sanniang only wanted to use Su Yanyu to break the Spiritual Array Formation of Suzhai Pavilion. Once the Spiritual Array Formation was broken, Hui Zhen would suffer a backlash and lose all her strength to fight back.

Liu Sanniang did not even need to fight her. If she returned the sins that originally belonged to Hui Zhen to her, the woman would suffer more pain than death.

Xia Hongyuan's face darkened, but he still said gently to Xu Bo and Yuan Hui, Thank you, Masters.

Xia Hongyuan looked at Hui Zhen and got someone to send Yuan Hui and Xu Bo out.

Liu Shun lowered his head and hid the maliciousness in his eyes. Your Highness, Liu Sanniang clearly knows that Master Hui Zhen is your person. What is her intention in openly dealing with Master Hui Zhen? We have to get rid of Liu Sanniang.

Xia Hongyuan looked at Liu Shun. He was now a puppet. Xia Hongyuan's expression was cold. Why is everything different from what you predicted?

Liu Shun told him that he would ascend the throne and be the emperor in the future, and that the Third Prince would instigate rebellion to try to make him step down.

Some of it came true. He believed that his third brother was ambitious and had the intention to rebel. He had always been mindful of that.

The reason why he had spent so much effort to protect Liu Shun was because he was useful. However, many things were different since then.

Liu Shun lowered his head. That's because Liu Sanniang is a variable. She shouldn't have become a powerful psychic. She should have been alone until she died. This is her life. Her life is different now. All these changes are brought about by her.

Not only did the changes brought about by Liu Sanniang affected him, but they also affected many people. Xia Hongyuan had spent a lot of effort to keep him alive because Xia Hongyuan wanted something in return. Liu Shun was a smart person. If Xia Hongyuan found that he was useless, he might abandon him.

If he was abandoned, a puppet like him would only die. He had already died once, so how could he be willing to face death again?

After being reminded by Liu Shun, Xia Hongyuan gritted his teeth and said, Since she is a variable, then we'll get rid of her.

Hui Zhen woke up slowly. Her vision was blurry. She opened her mouth and spoke in a hoarse and old voice. When Xia Hongyuan heard this, he quickly walked over. Master Hui Zhen, how do you feel?

Hui Zhen looked at Xia Hongyuan and knew that he had saved her. She trembled and said, Thank you for saving my life, Your Highness.

If it weren't for the endless faith and merit supporting her, she wouldn't have been able to hold on. The karmic flame in her body was threatening her life, and she could feel her bones burning bit by bit.

If she couldn't find a remedy, she would be burned to ashes in less than five days. The karmic flame would burn her from inside out until nothing was left.

Xia Hongyuan frowned. Master Hui Zhen, how can I save you?

Hui Zhen was the only capable psychic under him. If he lost Hui Zhen, he would have no one to counterbalance Xia Hongming's people.

Hui Zhen said with difficulty, Liu Sanniang is the answer. Unless she lets me go, I will die for sure.

However, would Liu Sanniang let her go? If so, why would she deal with her in the first place?

Hui Zhen was indignant. She did not have much time left. Even if she died, she would not let her enemy have an easy time.

Hui Zhen gritted her teeth and said, Humans have weaknesses. Liu Sanniang was born into an ordinary family. She calls herself the True Buddha, so she naturally won't abandon her family.

She was not Liu Sanniang's match, but Liu Sanniang's family could not be powerful psychics like her, right?

Xia Hongyuan narrowed his eyes. I'll send people to capture her family now.
