Chapter 440: Into the Water Prison
ghed sadly, “People say that a concubine is inferior to a wife, a stolen lover is inferior to a concubine, and a stolen lover who cannot be obtained is the worst. Even those high-ranking officials and...Qin Luoyan took the teacup, a faint smile playing at the corner of her mouth, “To be frank with you, I came here because there is something I want to ask of you” 。However, I won't let you get shortchanged either. You'll definitely be satisfied with my terms. 。" Oh I'd like to hear more. " 。"Rong Ye said" 。"Actually, it's not a big deal for you. I want to see the Martial Arts King Fuzi Mo." 。Qin Luo'yan said this with a light touch, but Rong Ye's face changed drastically. 。“Do you know Fu Zimo” Rong Ye and Rong Yin, father and son, looked at each other, both seeing suspicion in each other’s eyes. 。Qin Luoyan knew they would have doubts, so she didn't show any surprise. She just continued, "I have some history with Fu Zimu, and I want to confirm some things from him, so I want to meet him." 。It was just a brief encounter. It wouldn't have any impact on Rong Family Head, nor would it be difficult for him. However, it was very important to me. 。If the head of the Rong family agrees, I can promise that when leading the three great families to that place, I will secretly help the Rong family... get everything. 。Her meaning was clear: as long as Rong Yun satisfied her request, she would take action when going to the source of Gengjin, ensuring the Rong family obtained all the treasures. 。Those treasures are crucial to each hidden family. If obtained, it would mean that the two families would be trampled upon for a period in the future. 。This was a huge draw for Rong Ye, especially as the host, it was an irresistible temptation. 。"It's just..." Rong Ye sighed, "Your conditions are tempting, and I really want to fulfill them, but... Fu Zimu is dead. It's impossible for you to see him." 。“Dead” Qin Luoyan swallowed her saliva, hearing this news again, her heart still ached. “Headmaster Rong, I’ve been so sincere, won’t you stop evading me” “How could that be possible” Rong Ye poured another cup of tea for Qin Luoyan and slowly narrated, “I’m not afraid you’ll laugh at me, but although Wu Xuan Wang Fu Zimo has the bloodline of our Rong family, he was a castaway in the Rong family from a young age. He survived thanks to his perseverance and luck. Sadly, a few days ago, he entered our ancestral land to treat his serious injuries… Alas, it’s all his fate.” 。"Where's the body" Qin Luoyan forcefully concealed the sob in her throat. 。"At that time, I personally confirmed his body. It was indeed lifeless before being carried to the back mountain for activation." 。His body had been burned to ashes. The wind was rather strong that day, and they hadn't had time to collect his remains. After a strong gust of wind blew through, there wasn't even a speck of dust left. 。“
The speaker was Rong Yun. As he spoke, there was a hint of smugness in his expression, as if the fact that such a renowned hero had died before him, leaving not even a trace of ashes, made him feel even more invincible.
But, those few words falling on Qin Luoyan's ears, were more like sprinkling salt on a wound, causing her soul to throb with pain. 。There wasn't even ashes… There wasn't even ashes…Qin Luoyan's mind kept echoing these words. How could someone as proud as him end up like thisThis made it impossible for her to accept this reality.Perhaps Qin Luoyan's pale face and dazed eyes made Rong Ye and his son even more puzzled, so Rong Ye frowned and said, "Miss Qing's expression seems very sad How... are you his friend"Fu Zimuo didn't have friends, but he had many women. If Qin Luoyan was Fu Zimuo's woman, they would have to be more careful. 。Qin Luo yan bit her lower lip, then quickly let go, hiding the grief on her face and replacing it with a faint disdain, "Friend How could he be a friend He was the one who took the life of the person closest to me with his own hands." 。I just wanted to ask him a few things. Since he's dead, I guess it doesn't matter now. 。But... are there any close people still living around him" Upon hearing this, Rong Ye's vigilance relaxed by a third, and he smiled, "When he came to the Rong family, he had a female guard by his side. Fortunately, that female guard was favored by my son, so her life was spared. That female guard is Fu Zi Mo's confidante, and she might know something. If Qin girl's terms are still valid, I could arrange for you to meet her. Even, if you want to take her life, it would be possible" 。“Oh” Qin Luoyan’s eyes flickered, seeming a little hesitant. “Just a female guard To exchange for so many treasures, this…”She smiled awkwardly and then again, “Head of the Rong family, aren’t you being a bit too much”Rong Ye gave an embarrassed smile, “That’s true, how can just a female guard compare to King Wuxuan...” 。Why don't we do it this way I am willing to take a step back. The female guard is yours to dispose of as you see fit, but when the time comes to search for treasure, Miss Qin must put in an extraordinary effort so that we receive at least half of the spoils. 。And Miss Qin, rest assured that once this is done, you will always be the most honored guest of the Rong family. From now on, if Miss Qin needs anything, just say the word and the Rong family will do everything in our power to help. 。Trading a woman, even one who’s useless, for mountains of gold and silver This was a deal too good to pass up for Rong Ye and his son. They couldn't think of any reason not to accept it. Besides, in their eyes, Qin Luo Yan was nothing more than a woman – an opponent they wouldn't even consider a match for their ambitions. 。Qin Luoyan pretended to be difficult and thought for a while before slowly nodding in agreement. 。After dinner, Rong Ye immediately ordered Rong Yun to take Qin Luo Yan and the two of them to the water prison at the back mountain. Having received such a great benefit, both father and son wrote their joy on their faces, so their attitude towards Qin Luo Yan was even more attentive. 。As darkness deepened, the water prison's location being in shadow, each person held a lantern in their hand. 。Lanterns swayed in the mountains, revealing seven parts loneliness and three parts eeriness. 。The guards protecting the Water Prison saw Rong Yun, immediately bowed, and then opened the large gate of the Water Prison. 。"This water has been stagnant for decades, so it's very dirty and has a strong smell. Miss Qin will have to bear with it for a while." 。"Rongyun courteously handed over a brocade handkerchief, with a touch of ingratiation." 。It's alright, I can bear a little grievance. 。Qin Luoyan did not take the brocade handkerchief. Instead, she took out a handkerchief from her bosom and covered her nose and mouth. 。Rong Yin offered his handkerchief to the person but was refused, yet he didn't seem bothered at all. He simply took the silk handkerchief and covered his own nose and mouth, then walked ahead, leading the way for the two of them. 。If you think "Fu Zi Mo Qin Luo Yan" is good, please copy and paste the following URL to share it with your QQ, WeChat or Weibo friends, thank you for your support!( :b/23/23838/ ) are others, but they're all women of equal status and standing to him. She is definitely not one of them.Sometimes, Qin Luoyan really didn't understand what kind of idea he had that allowed him to so...
