Enchantress Amongst Alchemists: Ghost King's Wife
chapter-486

Yao Jing’s expression changed slowly.

He took in a deep breath and raised his hand to slap the Third Master of the Xiao family. All of his might was put into that slap and it directly sent the Third Master of the Xiao family flying back.

The Third Master of the Xiao family spat out a mouthful of blood as he looked flabbergasted at Yao Jing who had an ashened expression.

Following that, under his astonishment, Yao Jing smiled apologetically at Yao Yun Qing and said flatteringly, “Eldest young mistress, why have you come?”

Yao Yun Qing’s gaze swept around and landed on Yao Tian Yu.

Previously, she didn’t see who was lying on the ground. Now, when she looked at the stunned Yao Tian Yu, fury ablaze in her heart.

“Yao Tian Yu, you are so gutsy to actually dare to drug Xiao Feng!”

Yao Tian Yu bit her lips and replied, inwardly feeling wronged, “It isn’t me. It was Xiao Feng. He wanted to take advantage of me and he purposely orchestrated this matter…”

“Take advantage of you?” Yao Yun Qing sniggered. “Xiao Feng is my fiance. You think he will abandon the main branch of the Yao family to choose you who is from a side branch?”

‘Fiance?’

That word struck like lightning inside Yao Tian Yu’s heart.

She looked with disbelief at Yao Yun Qing. Her body shuddered uncontrollably.

‘Impossible!

‘If it wasn’t for Xiao Feng to drug himself, how had the following event occurred? Moreover, Yao Yun Qing who is from the main branch of the Yao family had always been doted lovingly upon. How can she fall for such a guy? With her status, what man can’t she marry. Yet, she is persistent in marrying such a guy?’

Thinking that, Yao Tian Yu couldn’t help but to voice her doubt.

“Why? Why do you fancy Xiao Feng? How can such a guy enter your eyes?”

Yao Yun Qing’s gaze darkened slowly as she looked coldly at Yao Tian Yu’s elegant face. “What does who I like have anything to do with you? You will never understand the good in others as a prideful person that only cares about yourself.”

Her sneer intensified as she said that.

The members of the Xiao family were stupefied as they watched on, especially the Third Master of the Xiao family. His eyes widened like a copper bell. His heart couldn’t stop shuddering…

‘This woman is from the main branch of the Yao family? What have I done then?’

The Third Master of the Xiao family’s complexion turned pale as an unprecedented remorse filled his heart.

Yet, no matter how much he regretted, he couldn’t do anything about it. As a person, he must pay for what he had done.

“So Xiao Feng really didn’t want to marry me.”

Yao Tian Yu’s gaze darkened before she chuckled bitterly. At this moment, she finally understood that what Xiao Feng said was the truth. Everything was just her own imagination.

No matter if it were the nobility of her status or her innate talent, Yao Yun Qing was far superior to her. How could she compete with her?

“Yao Jing, Yao Tian Yu, do you know what the punishment for breaking the rule of the continent is?” Yao Yun Qing focused her gaze at the two pale people as she continued heartlessly, “The rule of the continent states that people from the main four powers in the continent can’t interfere with ordinary people, nor make moves on them. Yet, you two were delusional in forcing Xiao Feng. You should know what the punishment is…”

‘Punishment?’

Yao Jing’s heart shuddered vigorously.

“It is to face the wall and ponder their misdeeds after being lock up at the back mountains for ten years!”

Ten years might be a short time for cultivators, but similarly, the changes going on in the world would still be large during that time. Furthermore, it wasn’t just facing the wall and pondering their misdeeds. They must endure being burned by raging flames…

How terrible was that? But this was the rule of the Yao family! Nobody could defy it!
