Chapter 1376 Come On Their Own 2 ” (2/2)

That roused a frown along the steambun’s face because he wanted to use this chance to lure the traitor out, but it seems that wench was more vigilant than he gave her credit for.

“Then signal her that you’ve caught Ling Yan. We will wait for her at the specified spot.” That said, a sinister grin drew itself into the boy’s face, showing he’s got a plan in mind.

This Mu Xue needs to be removed, otherwise she will become a scourge down the road.

“Yes, Your Highness.” While nervous and scared inside, Red Leaf also understood this was her only chance at saving her younger brother.

She’s been exposed, caught, and forced into an arrangement she has no say in it. Whatever happens was going to happen and she knows it.

Outside the city.

Not far away lied a stretch of greenery that made up a valley, this was also where Mu Xue stood, at the peak overlooking the settlement where she’s currently wanted on crimes of treason.

They had portraits of her own face plastered along every corner, every board, and every street of the city that she’s a traitor, a treasonous demon wanted dead or alive….

Exactly then, while she was lost in her own thoughts about the predicament she has gotten herself in, Mu Xue suddenly felt a burning sting coming from the palm of her hand.
