Grand Preceptor Xie waved a hand as he leaned back into his chair with eyes closed

“Who was it that injured you, father?” Xie Anshi+ asked next

Grand Preceptor Xie had only witnessed strength enough to tear apart a wall in His Majesty’s hands But it didn’tYu or not Why should he care about the fate of a person soon marked for death?

“There are spies in the estate,” Grand Preceptor Xie spoke with his eyes shut “I still haven’t found out who they are” If that was the case, Third Young Master Xie would have even less luck

“Will we have to change all the people in the estate?” Grand Preceptor Xie murmured to himself Xie Anshi+ was a cold-blooded man, but his hairs stood on end at his father’s words By exchanging the old for the new, his father could onlyoff their current staff, which numbered in the thousands Were they all supposed to die?

And yet, Grand Preceptor Xie soon shook his head at the words That was an impossible idea Over half of the Xie Clan servants had been born in the estate They counted as members of the Xie Clan too, so hoas he supposed to kill and replace them?

Yan Hong crawled up froround, a hand pressed over her wound as she kept running

“Just you wait,” Ning Xiaoyao shouted “I’ to come over and beat you to death!” Sole bite must be full of poison inside her body How could a person like that be allowed to exist?!

Lou Zigui took Ning Xiaoyao’s hand and led her towards Little Red, his voice low “That woer We don’t need to worry about her”

“She’s poisoned herself too?” Ning Xiaoyao asked

“Wouldn’t she have an antidote for her own poisons?” Lou Zigui helped Ning Xiaoyao onto the horse before cli on himself to reply
