Nan Zhi curled her body together, her eyes constricted terribly.

She glared at Lucy in panic and fear. “So it was actually you!”

Lucy lifted her leg, kicking at Nan Zhi. Lifting her chin, her expression was one filled with complete scorn and ridicule. “So what if it’s me? Do you think that you can make it out of here alive to clear Ye Sihan’s name?”

With her fingers touching the short gun tied to her waist, her lips curled up into a bloodthirsty smile. “The villagers will kill Ye Sihan’s beloved woman in order to avenge Old Man Bai. Even if the Qiao family wants to put it on someone, they would only find Ye Sihan and the villagers here. It will have nothing to do with me!”

Nan Zhi stared at Lucy with a pale face, spitting out with red eyes, “You’re despicable!”

Lucy laughed out loud. “I have always been like this, easily jealous and hateful. If anyone goes against my wishes, I will make sure that person will want to die, even though they’re living!”

Nan Zhi’s pupils constricted slightly, fidgeting to the side. Lucy thought that she wanted to escape, so she pulled out the gun and aimed it straight at her. “You still dare to move?”

Staring at the woman exuding a murderous aura in front of her, Nan Zhi was completely shocked.

She did not think that a Princess would actually be so twisted and extreme.

Closing her eyes, Nan Zhi’s face was ashen. “Princess, I know that I don’t have a lot of time left, but there’s something that I don’t understand.”

Lucy smirked. “Ha, you may ask.”

“Ah Li is the Fourth Prince’s close aide. Were you the one to make him betray the Fourth Prince? If he didn’t receive the order from the Fourth Prince, why did he kill Mr Bai? How did you make him obey you?”

Lucy smirked, blowing at the tip of the gun. “You really want to know about that? Alright, I’ll tell you. Ah Li and Ah Long are twin brothers and came to find Mr Bai under the Fourth Prince’s orders. I did everything I could to capture Ah Long, then when Ah Li came to rescue his brother, I threatened him with his beloved brother’s life. He had no choice but to listen to me.

“After he killed Mr Bai, I hypnotized him to make him my puppet and follow my orders!”

Nan Zhi’s heart chilled. She sucked in a deep breath, asking shakily, “What about Ah Long?”

“Oh, Ah Long? I poisoned him and he became a pathetic mute. I then broke all of the tendons on his limbs and threw him into the depths of the mountain. I don’t even know if he’s already been eaten by a wild beast or is still alive! Frankly, I don’t even care.”

Staring at Lucy, who was laughing gloatingly without any regrets after killing several people, Nan Zhi felt that this woman was too terrifying.

How could there be such a vicious woman in this world?

Lucy cackled, her eyes turning dangerous once more as she glared at Nan Zhi.

She raised the gun, walking in front of Nan Zhi.

Her other hand hauled Nan Zhi up from the ground. She looked at the cliff a few meters away from them, smirking coldly. “Don’t worry, I won’t shoot you to death. All I plan to do is push you down and watch as your body becomes the food of wild beasts.”

“Princess Lucy, you’re out of your mind. How can you be so heartless!”

Lucy’s eyes were filled with a dangerous coldness. “People who offend me will never meet with a good end. You can only blame the fact that you shouldn’t have appeared in front of me and became my obstruction.”

In that moment, Nan Zhi realized that Lucy’s hatred towards her was not only because of Mu Sihan. There was something else…

However, she really could not remember when or how she could have offended Lucy before!

Nan Zhi was pulled a few steps forward by Lucy. Her expression was no longer one of sadness and panic. She hurriedly took out a sharp dagger from her sleeves, waving it towards Lucy’s hand that was holding onto the gun.

Lucy clearly did not expect for Nan Zhi to do anything rash.
