Chapter 1159: Only if its you (2/2)
As Han Yunxi left the cell, the stone door slowly shut behind her. She turned and saw that Long Feiye was still standing in his original spot, hugging his sword and leaning against the wall. He too, glanced at her, and she smiled and walked over. “Long Feiye, I’ve finished taking my revenge! Later, get Xu Donglin--”
“Get Xu Donglin to send her back to Celestial Mountain so master can expel her from the sect,” Long Feiye finished for her.
“You...you heard everything?” Han Yunxi was surprised. She suddenly realized the stone door had been open the entire time.
Long Feiye couldn’t hide his grin. He leaned over and whispered in her ear, “I wan to give you even more children. Do you want them?”
Han Yunxi’s face immediately turned beet-red. He really did hear everything! She pushed him aside, embarrassed, and he laughed out loud. “So you want more?” he pressed.
Han Yunxi only glared at him silently. Long Feiye turned serious as he carefully pulled her towards him to plant a kiss on her forehead. “Only if it’s you.”
Han Yunxi, if you didn’t exist in this world, nobody else could do it… Long Feiye kept those words in his heart.
His gentleness was Han Yunxi’s fatal flaw. A single kiss left her smiling stupidly for ages.
“Let’s go,” Long Feiye said. He took her hand, but Han Yunxi remembered there was still someone behind them. She glanced back, only to see that Gu Beiyue had disappeared.
“Where’d he go?” Han Yunxi asked.
“He said he suddenly remembered some matters at the medical academy and left first,” Long Feiye intoned. Those were Gu Beiyue’s words verbatim, but the truth was that the man had tactfully retreated after hearing the conversation in the stone room.
Han Yunxi was happy, while Long Feiye couldn’t care less what happened to Duanmu Yao. The cheerful couple quickly left the maze.

Simultaneously, Su Xiaoyu had already met Bai Yanqing. Han Chen stood at the entrance of another stone room, refusing to enter or leave. He wasn’t interested in the private grudge between the other two, but to prevent Bai Yanqing from poisoning Su Xiaoyu. Despite all his injuries, Bai Yanqing’s poison skills weren’t easy to avoid. If he wasn’t around, Su Xiaoyu might end up as the old man’s hostage.
Meanwhile, Bai Yanqing was still reeling from the effects of Han Chen’s kick. He was curled up on the floor in a corner of the soon and didn’t react when Su Xiaoyu entered. The tip of her tongue was resting against her lips as she narrowed her eyes at him. In the shadows, she looked like a little devil. But she was in no rush. She had already figured out how to get revenge and was planning out an order to torment Bai Yanqing into unconsciousness.
Han Chen was leaning against the door with his arms crossed and eyes shut. It was unclear whether he was napping or thinking of other matters. The candlelight illuminated his handsome features and those divine angles of his face. He didn’t look old at all--of course, he wasn’t young either. His cool aura only accentuated the mysterious air of his mature, masculine visage. Whatever the case, he was lost in his own world and completely indifferent to Su Xiaoyu’s actions.
By contrast, his old subordinate hidden in the shadows was very much interested in Su Xiaoyu. He didn’t know if the girl had agreed to the sect master’s request, much less why she’d come to see Bai Yanqing. He was currently studying her intently.
She’s only 12 or 13 years old, right? Her looks aren’t bad, especially those big eyes. When they brighten, they looked more cunning than other children her age. She’s definitely more complicated than she looks.
All in all, Su Xiaoyu made a good first impression on him.
The room was silent. Soon enough, Su Xiaoyu opened her mouth. “Senior, can you help me tie him up? On a chair?”
“Someone, come,” Han Chen commanded.
Black-robed subordinates soon appeared. Su Xiaoyu quickly got familiar with them as she ordered them to tie Bai Yanqing up. He was soon confined utterly, unable to move a limb. But he only looked at Su Xiaoyu without a word.
“Tsk tsk, old thing. Aren’t you going to ask me what I’m planning?” Su Xiaoyu asked.
Bai Yanqing ignored her. Without a doubt, this damned girl was here to take revenge. He might have fallen far, but not to the extent that he’d beg a little girl for mercy.
“You want to ignore me?” Su Xiaoyu asked as she warmed up her hands. “That’s fine. It doesn’t matter if you’re paying me attention, either. And begging will be even more useless! I’m telling you now, I’m here to take revenge for my master, myself, Big Sis Ning, and your disciple Bai Yuqiao. And you don’t have to worry. Since it’s only four separate debts, I’ll finish everything in one night.”
Bai Yanqing’s head remained bowed as he sat in silence. Still, a cold smile rose to his lips. No matter whether these people wanted him dead or tortured, he wouldn’t beg for mercy! That was his final resolve that refused to lose.
Han Chen was unmoved, but the old subordinate was flabbergasted. Han Yunxi’s group has already reduced Bai Yanqing to this, but this little girl still wants to take revenge solo? Just how much does she hate him? Not only that, she’s listed out four separate debts? How is she going to take revenge four times?
The old subordinate thought this was quite interesting and began to look forward to the show.
