Chapter 253 - The Killing Starts from Here (1/2)

Three days were just a moment.

But neither the people of Jun Yeyan nor the people of Qi Liange had any progress or news about Bai Aoxue’s whereabouts.

But it could also be concluded from this that Bai Aoxue might had been rescued or fallen into the Yanjiang River and been washed away by the flowing water of the Yanjiang River.

People including Ten Dark Shadows, Li Xiao, Zhao, and others were standing at the gate of Jun Yeyan’s courtyard.

They knew more or less that they might be punished severely today after entering this courtyard. But they should bear it anyway.

Failure to protect the Master and the Mistress was their dereliction of duty.

Zhao Inhaled deeply and knocked gently on the door and said, “Master. May I come in?”

“Come in.” There was a cold male voice without a trace of emotion.

Zhao and other people looked at each other. They all saw the feeling of facing death unflinchingly in each other’s eyes.

He slowly opened the door. And he saw Jun Yeyan leaning on a soft chair, and Chidian was still and lying at the feet of Jun Yeyan.

And Jun Yeyan never looked up, let alone glance at them.

Li Xiao knelt heavily and said in a low voice, “Master. I did not complete the task. Please punish me.”

He knelt on the ground and spattered a little dust, which showed how hard he knelt. But they didn’t see a trace of pain from his face.

As soon as Li Xiao knelt down, ten evil spirits of shadow and Zhao also knelt down.

Several people said together, “Please punish me.”

There was a bit of frustration in their words. They didn’t expect that they could not find the princess.

They had searched Yanjiang around for dozens of miles, but they still hadn’t found Bai Aoxue.

“So… You didn’t find your mistress?” Jun Yeyan supported his head with one hand and leaned on the soft chair. He only wore an unlined garment. The open collar showed his fair skin, which was bewitching.

His phoenix eyes raised lightly, which even made the people kneeling on the floor shake gently. And then they quickly lowered their heads.

Even a man dared not to look straight at such a master.

His uncombed hair was loose freely. It looked like a fine brocade, which was bright and silky.

The black jade mask covered his face, but it couldn’t cover the storm brewing in his eyes.

“After many searches, there was no trace of the princess. We are sure that the princess was washed away by the water of the Yanjiang River, and people have been sent to search downstream the Yanjiang River.” Li Xiao told Jun Yexuan their analysis and plucked up the courage to look at Jun Yeyan straightly. But the hands behind him had shaken slightly.

Perhaps others would sneer that they were so scared of Jun Yeyan. No one made eye contact with Jun Yeyan when he was angry. So, no one would know the feeling of fear and depression.

That feeling was really enough to make you feel out of breath. The suppressed heartbeat could be heard clearly.

“Oh… I only want the results.” Jun Yeyan smiled slightly. As soon as his sleeves waved, Li Xiao flew out.

Zhao and ten evil spirits of shadow hurriedly said, “Master. Your poison….”

They all knew that Jun Yeyan couldn’t use the internal force. But just now he had used his internal force. Everyone was anxious about whether the toxin would spread again.

When Jun Yeyan heard the call of Zhao and other people, his phoenix eyes slightly raised and glanced at several people.

Zhao and other people heavily trembled, and they knelt on the ground again and dared not to speak.

If they had any other reaction, the master would kill them without hesitation.

That was how Zhao and other people felt at this moment.

Li Xiao climbed up from the ground and knelt on the ground again. He looked at Jun Yeyan and said, “I am wrong. Please calm down.”

“Li Xiao. I order you to leave now and continue to search for Xue’s whereabouts. As long as you don’t find Xue, don’t show up in front of me.” Jun Yeyan was safely seated in the soft chair with one hand supporting his head.

“I take orders. I will go through fire and water to find the princess. If I do not find the princess, I will not appear in front of you.” Li Xiao looked at Jun Yeyan with firmness in his eyes.

Jun Yeyan gently said, “You can go.”

Li Xiao saluted again. He turned away without hesitation.

As long as he didn’t find Bai Aoxue, he would not appear in front of the Master. He would definitely bring the princess back.

Jun Yeyan looked out of window at the sun and coldly said, “Zhao. You go back to the demon prison to receive the penalty. Come back to see me a month later. Others follow me back to Chengxi Dynasty. Everything starts from Chengxi Dynasty and ends from Chengxi Dynasty.”

As soon as Zhao heard Jun Yeyan’s words, his body trembled. But he did not hesitate and said, “I take orders.”

No one wanted to go to the demon prison and dared not to go in. Ten evil spirits of shadow and he all had only been in the demon prison for fifteen days, but the fifteen days was enough to kill them.

They could stand by the Master at this moment because they had survived these fifteen days.

Although the demon prison was horrible, Zhao was fearless in his heart at this moment. Compared with punishment, the hardship and self-blame in his heart were worse.

Ten evil spirits of shadow also didn’t plead for mercy. They always obeyed Jun Yeyan’s orders whether he was wrong or right.
