Chapter 4 There's Sugar on the Boat
Zhongli Yueluo took a step back: "Gongshu Liang, please leave as well."
Zhong Liyu wiped away the tears welling up in her eyes with a handkerchief: "Sister, I thought... I didn't mean it, it was just a moment of panic. You won't blame me, will you?"
"Of course I don't blame you, sister. In fact, I'd like to thank you for bringing so many people to prove my innocence. I'm not feeling well, so I won't see you off."
She had already seen them off like this, so she didn't believe the two of them would still stubbornly stay there. But Gongshu Liang still grabbed her hand.
"Yueluo, don't be like this. If you're upset, just say it out loud. Don't bottle it up and hurt yourself."
Zhongli Yueluo took a deep breath and forcefully shook off his hand.
Staring at his face, his eyes were like those of a hawk, his eyebrows were arched and his nose was straight, and his thin lips were equally cold and indifferent, with his black hair half-down.
The more I look at it now, the more disgusting it becomes. I don't know how I could have fallen for him in my past life.
She frantically wiped the hand that had touched her dress with his: "I said show him out!"
If she could, she would love to go up there and slap those fox-woman and deer-man twenty times across the face.
She wanted to inflict that thousand cuts upon herself! But she was all alone now, and she couldn't do it.
The two were kicked out and harbored resentment, wondering how Zhongli Yueluo had become so sharp-tongued and uncontrollable!
The door closed, and Qiaoyin knelt there, not daring to move. Even if she didn't respect Zhongli Yueluo, she was still her master.
Moreover, the look in his eyes when he said he wanted to beat Xiudie to death didn't sound like he was joking.
Xiudie and the fox guard were tied up there, their clothes disheveled.
Zhongli Yueluo's face was incapable of making any malicious expressions; she simply snapped her fingers.
She sealed their mouths shut; she didn't want to hear their screams when Qiaoyin hit them later.
"Qiaoyin, hit."
"Please spare my life, Second Princess! This Xiudie is the Queen's woman!"
"I've already said, I'm the only princess of West Demon Mountain, understand? Fight!"
Qiaoyin gritted her teeth, not daring to disobey, and lashed them with her magic power, whipping them until they were unconscious.
She ordered their bodies to be thrown into Ghost Sorrow Abyss.
The very next day, it was revealed that the second princess was tyrannical and enjoyed abusing maids and guards, killing them at will for her own amusement.
That's good. Zhong Liyu wants to ruin her reputation so that no one will want to come to her courtyard, and she won't have to deal with people.
Even the girl Qiaoyin, whom she had left behind, was told not to wander around in front of her.
As night fell, only a few lights were on in Yuanyue Pavilion, and Zhongli Yueluo sneaked out.
The Heartless River! It's so big, but it's still the border with the Eastern Demon Mountain. To make it easier to monitor her mother, it certainly wouldn't be too far from the Western Demon Mountain.
On the Heartless River, a boat adorned with red ribbons sailed out from East Demon Mountain and had already reached the border of the Heartless River. It was about to reach the border of West Demon Mountain.
A man in a black and red fitted robe stood on the deck, holding a fan.
Her golden-brown hair danced wildly in the wind, her eyebrows were sharp and her eyes were reddish-brown, and her long eyelashes obscured her vision.
With a red dot between her brows, a straight nose, and thin lips, her features are distinct. As she swims on the river, she looks like a fairy from afar.
A servant beside him said, "Young Master, haven't we set off too early?"
He opened his folding fan: "How do you know if the Wind Spirit Ghost Clan arrived before us?"
"I've heard that the Second Princess of Ximo Mountain is as stupid as a pig, and she even has someone she likes."
"What I want is not her affection, but her power, understand?"
He had long heard that the second princess was a good-for-nothing, which made it easier for them to control her.
Suddenly, a mist rose, the ship rocked, and they rocked along with it.
Amidst the mist, blue light splashed, lifting a curtain of water.
A barrier was erected around Yan Ruoyu to block the water falling from the sky, and guards with drawn swords surrounded her on high alert.
A piercing sound rang out, and a dark swarm of brain-eating demon sparrows rushed towards them from the sky.
A girl, dressed in a tattered blue dress, flew out from the deck and landed uncontrollably on the deck.
Yan Ruoyu used her fan to hold back the girl in blue without touching her at all. When Zhongli Yueluo glanced back, it was him!
He was the one who had his horns ripped off and was tortured to death for her sake.
Her heart ached terribly. Even now, he was still as dashing and elegant as when they first met, gentle and refined, full of youthful vigor.
Yan Ruoyu was still wondering why she was looking at her like that when he turned his Xuan Gu Fan around and she landed steadily to the side.
The brain-eating demon sparrow stood in the air, its eyes flashing with ferocity: "Young Lord of the Zhen Clan, the woman next to you has no ultimatum. Saving her is breaking the rules!"
Zhongli Yueluo was in such a hurry that she forgot she needed a proclamation to cross the river.
The main problem is that she was just loitering around the riverbank suspiciously; she didn't cross the river.
She remembered that in her previous life, Gongshu Liang had raised a brain-eating demon bird, which he often fed with delicious food. Unfortunately, it was too vicious, and she never liked it.
She stood up from the deck, her clothes torn and tattered.
Her shoulders and legs were exposed, and there were several bloodstains on them. She really didn't want to get entangled with him, but she also didn't want to reveal her identity to Yan Ruoyu.
"Tell me what conditions I can go back. Not crossing the river isn't breaking any rules."
"Now that you've entered this river, you either leave behind your brain or your memories!" This brain-eating demon sparrow doesn't care about money, it only cares about eating!
"The River-Crossing Envoy, she needs a few brains," Yan Ruoyu asked.
That was a double entendre; he didn't want to cause trouble and waste time here.
Zhongli Yueluo could only try her luck, so she took out a handful of candies from her purse and threw them into the air.
One of them happened to fall into the devil bird's mouth, and it smacked its lips, finding it quite delicious.
The murderous intent in her eyes softened, and Zhongli Yueluo, seeing that there was hope, said: "Let me go back, and you can have all of this."
She shook the purse in her hand, and the brain-eating sparrow's eyes darted around, after all, he was just a minor river-ferryman.
The candies that had just been scattered fell into the river, and a little girl with black hair and blue eyes, wearing a colorful raincoat and a mouthful of sharp teeth, opened her eyes.
Holding two large golden maces, he leaped out of the water.
He grinned, a terrifying smile spreading across his face: "What was that thing that just fell into the river?"
Zhongli Yueluo's pupils trembled slightly, as if she were recalling the little brain-eating sparrow girl covered in blood who had been locked in a cage in the backyard by Gong Shuliang. And now it was right in front of her!
She slowly landed on the deck and moved closer to Zhongli Yueluo: "The scent is coming from you."
The river-crossing envoy, still in mid-air, quickly bowed to her: "Miss!"
"So what if there's no ultimatum? No problem, give me twenty pounds of that thing from earlier, and I'll let you go back."
At that time, she was still a little girl with innocent eyes.
The river-crossing envoy withdrew, and since Miss He Yuhuan of the He family had spoken, he bore no responsibility.
Yan Ruoyu secretly observed the people who were coming out. The girl in blue had a golden deer token hanging from her waist. She was from the Medicine Deer Royal Family!
Zhongli Yueluo took a step closer to Yan Ruoyu: "Young master, is there any candy on the boat?"
