"However, lately, she seemed to have changed into another person. The last time when she killed Xue Meng on the arena, I was already suspicious. No matter how lucky that girl was, there was no way she could be that lucky!"
"Mother's meaning is-" Xiao Yun wiped her tears, too shocked to the point she was unable to process the words.
Concubine Xue continued to explain: "Today, she had also won against the prefecture of the government minister's Lin Wan Yi and Lin Zi Cheng, the two masters. Right now, inferring her strength, she probably is at the rank of a golden warrior already. In such a short period of time, her strength was able to rapidly improve, there must be some encounters or some masters giving her directions!"
The words, in Xiao Yun's ears, felt extremely ear-piercing. This whole life, she had tried her best and didn't even have some miracle encounters or even a master giving her directions. How come Huang Bei Yue had met this?
Could it be that this whole life, she can't be better than Huang Bei Yue? She would be stepped under her feet?
"Mother!" Xiao Yun suddenly lowered her voice. She harshly exclaimed: "No matter how powerful she is, she can't live any longer. That medicine, how about we increase the dosage! Kill her in one shot and rid ourselves of a problem in the future!"
"This matter, this mother naturally has it planned out. You don't need to worry about it." An icy light flashed through Concubine Xue's eyes.
"Mother—" Xiao Yun declared touchingly.
Concubine Xue touched her face: "Yun Er, this mother's hope is all on you now. Nothing must happen to you!"
Xiao Yun nodded her head, determinedly: "Don't worry, mother. I will definitely try my best!"
"Concubine Xue, the second sister, what are you guys still here doing? I heard that the Lord's father is here to go teach Huang Bei Yue a lesson!" Xiao Ling's noisy voice rang.
Concubine Xue and Xiao Yun looked at each other. This idiot!
"Elder sister go first. I will come in a while." Xiao Yun turned around to stare at Xiao Ling. She looked at the expression on her face as though happy she was in a difficult situation. She couldn't help to sympathize with her.
"Then I will go now." Xiao Ling held onto the hem of her dress. She brought her maid along, hurriedly going to Liu Yun Ge.
"Yun Er, let's go and look as well." Concubine Xue held onto Xiao Yun's hand, the two following them.
Within Liu Yun Ge, Dong Ling had walked into the courtyard before Xiao Qi Yuan. She watched as Huang Bei Yue just changed into a pale red dress with butterflies and flowers embroidered on it. On the outside, it was covered with a sable coat. She brushed her hair into a composed crossed bun.
Dong Ling walked up, smiling: "Young miss is very smart. This maid had only brushed your hair a couple times before and you have learned the ways."
"This is harder to learn than refining pills. It's been torturing me!" She lightly held onto the golden dangling ornament. Huang Bei Yue smiled: "Did that old thing come yet?"
"Does he dare not to come?" Dong Ling covered her small mouth, smiling. She thought back to when she came to family Xiao and the moment Xiao Qi Yuan heard that Princess Bei Yue had ordered someone over, she wanted to laugh over the frightened expression.
Huang Bei Yue raised her eyebrows. Of course, that old thing was like this. The fright that the Honorable Spirit had given him, he probably won't be able to forget about it his whole life.
The gap in strengths was that huge so even if he shrunk into a turtle, he won't be able to hide ah. If he still hid his powerful strength then maybe he could hold a rougher tone but if he didn't, then he could only obediently let him be bullied by her!
Once she thought up to here, Huang Bei Yue couldn't help to admire the Honorable Spirit. Most likely, from when he had made a move to Xiao Qi Yuan to when he let him escape, he had thought of this already.
Letting Xiao Qi Yuan escape alive rather than killing him, this will give family Xiao a bigger shock!
"Princess Bei Yue, this old man had brought some gifts over to pay a visit!" Outside, an old but clear and loud voice rang.
Huang Bei Yue faintly curled up the corner of her lips, saying to Dong Ling: "Let the Lord's father in."
"Yes." Dong Ling went out, standing by the door. With a crisp voice: "Lord's father, please come in. Princess had prepared some snacks and tea waiting."
Xiao Qi Yuan lifted his head to look around the room. The curtains were closed so nothing could be seen. How did he dare to go in? What if Huang Bei Yue had set up a trap then he will die inside for no reason?
Although they were related by blood, all these years he hadn't viewed Huang Bei Yue as his granddaughter. Huang Bei Yue naturally hadn't viewed him as her grandfather either. Today, within the Seven Tower's forest, Huang Bei Yue had the intentions of murdering him!
The reasons why he came today – On one hand, he was afraid that he didn't give faces to Huang Bei Yue, he will anger the master. On the other hand, he also wanted to become close to Princess Bei Yue and please her so that she can compliment him in front of the master in order for him to let him go.
He thought of making his move through Huang Bei Yue because Huang Bei Yue's personality had inherited from Princess Zhang. Since childhood, she was gentle and kind. It's just that Huang Bei Yue's personality was a little on the weaker side.
He thought that no matter what, blood is thicker than water. After all, Huang Bei Yue would still consider this fact right?
Xiao Qi Yuan raised his head to look at Dong Ling: "Young miss Dong Ling, this old man's body isn't well. If I go into the room, it will probably taint the Princess's room. It's better for me to stand outside the room and speak."
"The Lord's father's face is huge. Whatever you said is what you said. This maid will go in and ask for the Princess out." Dong Ling turned around, walking in smiling.
The words that she said led Xiao Qi Yuan to start sweating. His original intention was to ask for Huang Bei Yue to come out and there was nothing bad with sitting within the garden, drinking tea and chatting. But now that Dong Ling had exclaimed in this way, it felt as though he was taking advantage of others based on his seniority. It made it seem like he didn't want to go in and instead wanted Huang Bei Yue to come out.
This girl isn't an easy character ah!
Momentarily, Huang Bei Yue came out, with Dong Ling's escort. The lily-white hands slightly held onto the hem of the dress. On her face, it hung a faint smile. She had an elegant manner and born from the nobility.
"It's rare that the Lord's father could do me the honor of coming. Bei Yue didn't go out to welcome you. I am really lacking in manners ah." Huang Bei Yue bent her knees, making a salutation where a young miss would do towards a senior when seeing them.
Xiao Qi Yuan didn't dare to accept her salutation. He hurriedly moved out of the way. he hugged his fist, bending his waist and saluting: "What is the Princess saying? It's this old man who should salute to the Princess."
Huang Bei Yue lifted her hand: "Lord's father is a senior. Quickly get up. Bei Yue doesn't deserve this."
Xiao Qi Yuan wiped his sweat. He stood up and the three masters in the back hurriedly came over, bring up gifts.
There was three embroidered boxes. Each one of the embroidered boxes was opened. The first embroidered box held the complete secret book of 'Flame Beheading.' In the second embroidered box, there was a sparkling and translucent pill. In the third embroidered box, there was a black dagger which could peel metal off as though the mud.
"This is just a meager gift. Hope the Princess can kindly accept this." Xiao Qi Yuan carefully observed Huang Bei Yue's face when she saw the precious treasures.
These couple of things could be considered as amazing treasures. Each of them can't be bought with money. This Huang Bei Yue had only transformed into a powerful person recently. Otherwise, in the past, she wouldn't have allowed family Xiao's people to continuously bully her.
Since she had turned powerful recently, she probably hasn't seen that many treasures before. When she had seen these couple of things, she will probably be delighted?
