Chapter 126

To Frame and Blame Someone Else [20]

Although Yan was sealed in the Forbidden Black Water Prison, he was still able to see clearly what had happened in the outside world.

“This seemed to be a Water Pearl…” Yan stopped and continued, “It’s right. It really is Water Pearl! Humph! This compensates for our loss. Although we don’t have the Lotus Flame Furnace, this Water Pearl is also one of heaven and earth’s precious treasures.”

“Water Pearl?”

“With this Water Pearl, it’s not a difficult task to go to the depth of the sea.”

Huang Bei Yue thought for a moment then laughed: “The pressure at the bottom of the sea is huge. If people go down there, they will be pressed into pieces.”

“Humph, you don’t understand this. Although this Water Pearl isn’t a weapon, as long as it is water, it will move out of the way. Walking at the bottom of the sea would be like walking on the plain ground.”

“Well, this sounds amazing. When we have time, we should try this out.” Huang Bei Yue looked at the pearl and placed it away. She then sneaked back to Flowing Cloud Pavilion.

After she had come out from changing her clothes, Dong Ling had run over exclaiming: “Young miss, something’s wrong! Anguo Gong Fu’s people had surrounded our prefecture.”

Huang Bei Yue calmly drank her tea and nodded: “They’re pretty quick.”

Dong Ling saw how she acted naturally as though she knew everything. She curiously asked: “Young miss, what happened?”

Huang Bei Yue hooked her finger and told Dong Ling to move her head over. She then explained how she had framed Xiao Zhong Qi to Dong Ling. After she heard everything, Dong Ling burst into laughter: “Young miss, you’re so mean!”

“This is called placing the blame on someone else. I killed Xue Meng while Xiao Zhong Qi had stolen Lotus Flame Furnace and Water Pearl. Guess. Guess whether that old man Anguo Gong would think Xue Meng is more important or Lotus Flame Furnace and Water Pearl?”

Dong Ling scratched her head and said: “Blood runs deeper than water, after all the affection between father and daughter….”

“Aye!” Huang Bei Yue knocked on Dong Ling’s head. “What affection between father and daughter? In these famous families, there is no such thing as affection. There are only benefits. Look at Xiao Yuan Cheng and you’ll understand.”

Dong Ling’s expression dimmed and patted Huang Bei Yue’s hand saying: “Young miss, don’t be upset with how the lord is right now.”

She shouldn’t be too upset? There was no affection between Xiao Yuan Cheng and her!

In her heart, she had never accepted Xiao Yuan Cheng as her father. Although the truth is that she couldn’t deny was that the lord and Huang Bei Yue were related by blood.

Dong Ling was innocent and gentle unlike her. After experiencing so much, she had become isolated and bitter.

The noise outside got louder and louder. The quiet night was completely disturbed.

The lights in Princess Zhang’s Prefecture were turned on. The young masters/misses and concubines were all woken up. Right now they were all frightened by the murderous aura outside. They all hid in their rooms, afraid to go out.

Huang Bei Yue and Dong Ling walked over to the front yard where the Xiao family and Anguo Gong’s Prefecture’s people were at. The atmosphere was hostile and it seemed to be the point where if they started arguing, countless people were going to die!

Xiao Yuan Cheng didn’t even wear his clothes properly on time. He stood at the door with Anguo Gong. Anguo Gong’s clothes also weren’t properly dressed and he had on the black fox fur coat from before.

Xue Che noisily exclaimed: “Where is Xiao Zhong Qi? Let him come out!”

Xue Che’s voice was firm plus he had let out the giant red spider out, which had stood proudly in front of Princess Zhang Gong’s Prefecture. Everyone was frightened by the red spider’s size.

That Xiao Zhong Qi probably had received the news, thus the reason why he still hadn’t come out.

Only Xiao Yun’s calmness was still intact. She summoned her Sky Snow Cat out and squatted in front of the yard, staring at the red spider.
