Mo Die could only cry when she heard Mo Linyuan’s words.

She sobbed and cried which ruined the makeup on her face.

“Royal brother, no matter what I did, I am still your biological sister! We came from the same parents! I am only 14 years old; I don’t want to die yet! Royal brother, please let me go! I promise I will never show my face in front of you again!”

There only silence after Mo Die begged for her life.

Mo Die could feel the lingering presence of death in Mo Linyuan’s silence.

Strictly speaking, Mo Die had been “dead” nine years ago. If he never officially granted her an identity, then she will be a person with an unknown background for the rest of her life. Even if he spared her life because of their mother, he didn’t seem to have to worry about what she will do in the future because she had no power to harm him.

Seeing how Mo Linyuan remained silent, Mo Die could no longer restrain herself and started crying out loud.

“Royal brother, please spare me! I won’t get in your way anymore. Since I have no official identity, I can’t do anything to cause you trouble! Our royal mother only gave birth to the two of us, do you really want to kill off your last blood relative?”

Mo Linyuan sighed suddenly.

“It’s true that you pose me no death even if I spare your life.”

Mo Linyuan’s words made Mo Die extremely happy!

“But…” Mo Linyuan narrowed his eyes, “I feel that you are no longer worthy to continue living in this world. You continue to help the enemy plot against me even though you knew the truth about our royal mother’s death. It seems as if you are willing to betray me for the sake of receiving some benefits even though you know we are blood-related siblings.”

He raised his sword again after he finished speaking.

“Royal brother!”

Mo Die was frightened to the point where her voice suddenly changed pitch as it echoed in the secret room. She struggled desperately as if her life completely depended on it. Her eyes widened in fear as she stared at her royal brother!

“You killed your biological father! Aren’t you afraid of retribution from Heaven?!”

Mo Linyuan smiled softly, “Having relatives like you is already retribution for me.”

The sword rose and fell. Mo Die died with remaining grievances in the mortal world.

The air reeked of blood and murderous intent. Mo Linyuan appeared to be an extremely terrifying existence at the moment. Whenever he looked in a certain direction, the soldiers standing in his line of sight would immediately involuntarily bow their heads. No one wanted to approach him because no one had the courage to do so.

It was also because he had just killed his biological father and sister without blinking his eyes. In this era, relationships with families were greatly valued. As such, the guards couldn’t help but tremble when they saw how ruthless Mo Linyuan acted towards them.

Finally, Mo Linyuan’s gaze fell on Ye Mu.

Mo Linyuan’s figure was elongated under the light of the flickering flame. His dragon robe made him look even more ferocious. His ice-cold expression and the bloodstains on his face made him look terrifying.

He reached out his hand toward Ye Mu.

“Come here.”

Everyone subconsciously looked towards Ye Mu.

Mo Linyuan had a frightening appearance at the moment. If she was a normal little girl, she would’ve screamed and fled the moment she saw Mo Linyuan. However, Ye Mu was not a normal little girl, so she didn’t scream nor did she flee.

She looked at him quietly for a second before she walked towards him.

However, instead of holding his blood-stained hands, she wiped his face with her handkerchief.

“You did very well.”

She actually said that he had done a good job!

One of the guards had a shocked expression on his face. How could slaughtering his relatives be a “job well done”?

As she rubbed the blood off his face, she said, “The retired emperor suddenly died of an illness today. No one anticipated that this would’ve happened. You don’t need to be too sad. As for Mo Die…”

“She is only a maid who merely resembled the princess who died nine years ago. You favored her because she looked like your late sister, but now that she had unfortunately died, let someone bury her.”
