Evil Emperor's Wild Consort - chapter-862
The officer clearly jumped with fright and trembled as he stuttered,
“Ye… Yes.”
“Oh? Then tell me, where in the Imperial City is she?”
“This… I’ve seen the woman in this picture having a dispute with the
Lady of the Xia family, Xia Chuxue, as I was having a meal at Auspicious
Blessing Tavern. She seems to be staying at that tavern.”
Under Grand Lord Hong Lian’s powerful coercion, the man conveyed this
piece of information with great difficulty. He then watched as the man in
red shot off like a red light next to him and soon disappeared from view.
Of course, the man in red was still unaware that Gu Ruoyun was now at Xia
Chuxue’s wedding ceremony. So, unsurprisingly, he had not managed to find
the person he had been searching for in the tavern.
…
At the Xia family home.
Gu Ruoyun’s clear and cold gaze fell upon Xia Ming’s pale features.
Murderous intent circled around her being as she spoke icily, “Xia Ming,
when you had murdered old Master Xia and Xia Ruoyun that year, did you
imagine that this day would ever come? I’m here today to avenge Xia
Ruoyun in her place! However, I never thought that not only had you
murdered your own daughter, even your father who had raised you had not
been spared! Furthermore, based on the current situation, the unexpected
deaths of the other heirs must also be related to you in some way.”
Initially, the members of the Xia family had not been so sparse. Aside
from Xia Ming, old Master Xia had also sired several sons and daughters.
However, other than the daughters who had married into families in
distant lands, everyone else had all died from accidents. None have been
spared!
Since Xia Ming would even kill his own father, what other reason would he
have to spare his brothers?
“Hehe.”
Xia Ming sniggered and rose to his feet from the ground. He stared at Gu
Ruoyun and sneered, “So what if I did? Those people had once fought with
me over the position of Young Master Xia, they all deserved to die!”
Gasp!
When they heard Xia Ming’s confession, everyone in the room could not
hold themselves back from exclaiming out loud.
Xia Ming had murdered his brothers and killed his own father. He has
certainly committed every crime imaginable! They found it very hard to
imagine that anyone in this world could be so cruel and heartless.
Bang!
Suddenly, a loud noise sounded from outside the door. Gu Ruoyun knit her
brows gently and after ordering Yunyao to watch the members of the Xia
family, she hurriedly rushed out the door. However, when she laid her
eyes on the two people who were fighting in the Xia family courtyard, she
was instantly flabbergasted.
“Xiao Ye, what are you doing? Also, Godfather, what are you doing here?”
Gu Ruoyun felt slightly aggrieved. Why are these two fighting in the Xia
family home?
“Sister.”
Xia Linyu noticed Gu Ruoyun immediately and his eyes lit up. He quickly
scurried over to her.
“Yu’er, what on earth is going on?”
Gu Ruoyun’s frown deepened as she asked Xia Lunyu.
“I’m not too sure myself.” Xia Linyu rubbed his nose, “I was rushing over
here with Big Brother Qianbei when this man, who has a picture of you,
suddenly appeared and asked for some information about you. Big Brother
Qianbei instantly marked him as a criminal and they began to fight. They
had then fought and fought until they reached the Xia family home.
Sister, you’d better hurry and stop them.”
Gu Ruoyun was completely dumbstruck as she stared blankly at the two red
figures who were fighting each other in mid-air, temporarily unable to
return to her senses.
From her point of view, Xiao Ye has been around for a good number of
years and her godfather was a cultivator whose very name shakes the
mainland to its core. When had their tempers become so violent? They’re
fighting… All for the sake of a painting?
Had they not even bothered to talk in a civilized manner?
However, she was rather surprised at Grand Lord Hong Lian’s sudden
appearance and that he has been asking about her.
Could it be that something has happened in Red Lotus Territory?
