“Mother!” Xuan Yuan Che’s voice pierced through the darkness. He couldn’t hold back anymore.
He fiercely rushed forward. He grabbed Liu Yue by her shoulders and pushed her aside. He then went and hugged his mother.
“Mother, how are you feeling? How are you feeling?” Looking at the blood on her chest, Xuan Yuan Che’s eyes turned red.
Liu Yue who was pushed away took two steps back and stared at the uncontrollably sorrow Xuan Yuan Che. She was stunned.
Qiu Hen and Yan Hu were both behind Xuan Yuan Che with their mouths wide opened. They had an expression filled with disbelief on their faces.
“Kill the witch……”
“She’s trying to assassinate the Empress…..”
“Kill……..!”
From the shadows, countless amounts of imperial guards appeared. It was as if they appeared out of nowhere.
They were all armed, and filled with murderous intent.
All of them were angry. All of them wanted to kill the witch that tried to assassinate the empress.
This empire destroying witch must be killed. She must be killed no matter what.
It was getting darker and darker.
The moisture in the air was getting heavier and heavier as if it was about to rain.
The cold autumn breeze sent chills down people’s spines.
So there were more traps waiting for her. Liu Yue came back to her sense and smiled.
While staring at the back of the extremely sad and angry Xuan Yuan Che, Liu Yue took a deep breath and loudly said, “I won’t explain anything. I’m going to find someone to pay back some debt…. Come find me yourself.”
The cold voice echoed through the hall as Liu Yue continued to walk out. She was calm and didn’t hesitate at all.
Behind her, Du Yi yelled out, “It wasn’t master.” as he followed her out.
“Stop right there.” Xuan Yuan Che who was hugging the empress immediately turned around and yelled out.
However, Liu Yue who is filled with anger moved faster and faster. In the blink of an eye, she escaped the imperial guard’s encirclement and ran towards the darkness.
