ceased, and the female ghost gradually materialized a silhouette. The man couldn't see her, as he wept and berated her for being so willful, willfully conceiving a life and willfully ending two.The fe...Bai Wu Chang wore a long white robe with wide sleeves, faintly glowing amidst the heavy black mist. The black clad Bai Wu Chang beside him kept silent, his face grim as he approached me with a menacing air.

"Oh dear, Little Imperial Prince is pouting... so pitiful. As the embodiment of Yin and Yang energies, his body fears both heat and cold. My Lady, please take care of Little Imperial Prince first." Bai Wu Chang smiled sweetly as he passed You Nan to me.

I glanced at You Nan hurriedly, You Nan's small hand grabbed my shirt on the chest, with a wronged expression on her face, her little mouth trembling from the cold.

Even if a part of him was once Jiang Qiyun's, his body was still an undeniable infant!

Looking at him like this, so pitiful and wronged... it makes me furious.

I gave Younan to my grandmother. She unbuttoned her cotton coat and wrapped him against her chest, running back to the room with a shout. Lao Su hugged Yu Gui and rushed in after her.

"Qiyé, I trouble you to guard them, lest any more scoundrels should meddle." I said to Bai Wu Chang.

Bai Wuchang raised an eyebrow and glanced at the Eighth Lord. Hei Wuchang didn't say a word and turned to walk into my small courtyard.

With such a fearsome black-faced deity seated in the courtyard, even ghosts would give him a wide berth.

Bai Wu Chang squinted at the female Yin Shai: “Miss Yue, long time no see~~ hihi…… How is Old Wang Ye doing”

“Thank you for the greetings from Qitian Dasheng. I am doing well.”

"Old Wangye has always been steady, how could he not discipline himself and allow Miss A Yue to bully our little Empress Does he really think the Imperial Lord won't get angry" Bai Wuchang drifted forward leisurely.

Only then did I see the chains in his sleeve dangling on the ground, like a serpent, silently winding around Xi Linzhou's legs!

Xi Lingzhou stood trembling on the spot, her eyes even shedding blood tears.

"Seven Lords, please don't kill her!" I quickly reminded him.

Bai Wu Chang raised an eyebrow: "How so She dares to abandon the Little Imperial Prince, yet the Young Lady still shows kindness towards her"

"It's not kindness, it's that I can't let her die so easily. I still have questions for her!" I glared hatefully at Xi Lingzhou.

Though this little witch can be quite spiteful, I've never really taken her seriously. She's all bark and no bite, as they say.

I never expected her to be so bold as to threaten me with my child!

Old Mrs. Ma must have been possessed by a fierce fox spirit to dare take such a risk.

Seeing Younan's pitiful look just now, it really pissed me off!

How cold are the winter nights in the north

His little lips were trembling from the cold. If he were an ordinary child, or even Yu Gui, he would probably have been crying his heart out.

My son Younan rarely cries. This puckered lip trembling is already extreme restraint, it breaks my heart into pieces.

Where can I make Xi Lingzhou die easily!

I won't kill her to add to my karma, but I won't let her have it easy either!

Her mission failed, if she betrayed Madam Ma again, Madam Ma would definitely torture her to death!

Bai Wu used his long sword to tap Xi Lingzhou's chin, and said coldly: "Oh my, the little empress is angry. I guess no one can save you..."

Xi Linzhou glared at me, two lines of blood and tears streaming down her eyes. She snarled, "Am I still afraid of death I'd rather die sooner! Even as a ghost, it would be better than this!"

Humph... Once you've really done something terrible, you'll know how it feels, won't you

I walked past her and looked at the grim reaper named Yue, whispering, "Seventh Master, she—"

"She is the adopted daughter of Old Wang Ye, she has some reputation in our underworld... But how could she help a little witch steal things... tsk tsk, Miss Yue, to attack the child of Lord Di Jun, are you tired of living and want to be wiped out Don't~ It's a pity that you wasted hundreds of years of cultivation, hihi... How about visiting Luofeng Mountain instead It's definitely prettier than Old Wang Ye's territory." Bai Wu Chang floated towards Yue.

A Yue is a Yin warrior. The black silk sleeve she wears is her weapon, similar to a chain.

"No, no, this little witch is my senior sister's apprentice. She asked me to steal a fox head for her, afraid that she couldn't explain it to my senior sister. Who knew she was desperate and kidnapped the child! I was just about to give her a good lesson... Luckily the child was unharmed~~ Otherwise, our old King would have thrown me in jail!" Ah Yue casually shifted blame.

Bai Wu Chang coldly smiled and said, "Miss Ayu is truly considerate, a rare gem indeed. The King has such capable subordinates, no wonder he can live freely."

"Seven Lords flatter me. This little monster, Xi Lingzhou, is audacious. I'd like to handle her. I'll have her master teach her a lesson. After all, she's still human. It wouldn't be appropriate for us to add to her karma..." Ayu pleaded softly.

Bai Wuchang smiled and said, “Hee hee… I dare not act on my own accord for this. Our little lady is here, so we have to let her decide~~ The underworld has a strict hierarchy, we must remember who is in charge and who is subordinate. If we mess up the rules, we will be punished.”

He drifted back, whispering in my ear: “ ... Little Empress, give her a step down.”

I arched an eyebrow at her, "A step down Why"

She just bound me with black silk, preventing me from catching Yunan!

I'm so angry, I don't want to let her off the hook at all.

But Bai Wu Chang winked at me, smiling with a knowing look.

Out of a misplaced "trust" in Bai Wu Chang, I forced down my anger and said, “I have some acquaintance with Master Ma, the master of Xi Lin Zhou. Since she came to my house to steal the fox head, it should be me who personally takes her to Master Ma to seek an explanation. Whether to punish or show leniency depends on how her master handles it. As for this Miss Yue... we'll sort things out later!”

"Ah Yue frowned, looking at Bai Wu Chang standing beside me with a cold smile. She furrowed her brows and said, “As the little princess says, I shall visit another day to offer my apologies!”

She vanished into the darkness, swirling with a gust of cold wind. The black miasma on the ground slowly dissipated.

I was furious. I took out a talisman, muttered incantations, and burned the black mire on the ground to ash. Turning to Bai Wuchang, I angrily shouted: "...She's so bold! Why should we let her go!"

"Oh my, Your Highness is so fierce~~ No wonder the Emperor said that whenever it's about children, you'll start arguing with him, hee hee hee..." Bai Wuchang floated towards our yard and ran away.

He held Xiliangzhou's soul captive in his hand. Xiliangzhou, lost and confused, followed him blindly, only to trip on my doorstep and tumble at the entrance.

Like a zombie.

I was still furious and told Lao Su, "Stand her behind the door, don't get in my way here!"

"Huh! Behind the door" Lao Su was stunned.

This is what a corpse runner would do, but right now I'm mad at her, and I don't want her to come in one step. But I can't just leave her on the street.

"Qidian, what's really going on with A Yue!" I chased after Bai Wu Chang to get a clear answer.

He held up a finger to his lips and made a shushing gesture: "Hush... she's an undercover spy..."e this year. If you encounter it, please stay away as soon as possible. I've already raised the railings on the seventh floor.She pointed to a railing on the seventh floor of the atrium.We took a look...
