Chapter 1267: Smoke and Fire Rise

Duchess is not feeling well and has just taken medicine to rest.Feng Lingxi's words had just fallen when she saw the door being pushed open. Dugu Cheng walked in and said to the maidservant behind hi...Lu Nian could only say that, anyway he didn't know how much money the Lu family actually had. His mother was in charge of all the finances.

Dugu Cheng looked at Lu Nian's expression, thinking that he was generous and a rich young master. How this actually worked, only he knew.

"Go back first. Capture everyone you can and let Xi'er know so she doesn't worry."

Now Dugu City is not so anxious to catch Xinshui. Since he knows it was her doing, this matter can only be left to Luo Li to handle. He believes Luo Li will handle it better than him.

Outside the city, in an ancient house ten miles away, Luoli sat on top, looking at the red-clothed woman standing below. Her angry eyes were bloodshot, wishing she could rush forward and kill her.

"Who let you touch Feng Yu Mo"

“What about me Grandpa said I shouldn't let Feng Lingxi have a good time. Since Feng Yumo is Feng Lingxi’s brother, of course I can touch him. Chieftain Mo, aren't you really in love with Feng Lingxi You love her so much that you even want to protect her half-blood relative"

Her eyes narrowed with envy.

She was so good to Luo Li, but in the end, he still didn't look at her.

Only when she provoked Feng Lingxi would he appear to discipline her. Only at this time would he be willing to acknowledge himself.

Li Wuyan heard Xin Shui's words, his handsome brows furrowed slightly. He watched Luo Li get up and walk in front of Xin Shui, looking at her enchanting face, his face full of disgust.

"You're insane! When have I ever liked Feng Lingxi You've completely lost your mind. The Grand Elder clearly said not to let Feng Lingxi have it easy, yet what are you doing now Don't forget, Feng Lingxi's daughter is the future leader of the Yao Clan. If anything happens to her, can you afford the consequences"

Luoli roared, glaring at Xin Shui whose face showed not a shred of remorse. Grasping her wrist tightly, he looked at her long nails with disgust and questioned, "Now that you've made yourself look like a demoness, do you think this makes you powerful and intimidating Don't forget, if you dare to ruin your grandfather's plan, he will kill you without mercy."

Luo Li's words sent a shiver down Xin Shui's spine. Looking into Luo Li's menacing eyes, she knew Luo Li was right. If Grandpa found out she had sabotaged his plan, he would definitely not spare her.

"No matter what happens this time, you have to help me."

Xinshui bit her lip and stared straight at Luo Li.

"Don't forget, my grandfather said to help me."

"Can I help you"

Luo Li turned around and slapped Xin Shui's face with her hand, making her cheek swell up. Blood dripped from the corner of Xin Shui's lips. Her eyes were filled with forbearance as she wiped the blood from her lips and looked at Luo Li.

"I hit you, and I'll consider this as your agreement."

"Do you want me to clean up this mess for you"

Luoli's tone was extremely cold, Xin Shui looked at him, "What do you want Do you want me to surrender to Feng Lingxi"

"You broke off one of Feng Yu Mo's fingers."

When Xinshui heard Luoli's words, he instinctively withdrew his hand and took two steps back, watching Luoli warily.

"What do you want to do"

Luo Li walked towards Xinshui, her eyes devoid of any warmth. She reached out and grabbed Xinshui's wrist. Xinshui struggled, but Luo Li dragged her closer. Their eyes met, the closest they had ever been. Yet, this closeness filled Xinshui with unease.

"What do you think I want to do"

Luo Li's voice was icy cold, devoid of any warmth. Looking into Xin Shui's panicked eyes, she pressed her hand to the table. Xin Shui flinched and hastily withdrew her hand. Luo Li gripped her wrist with immense force. As Xin Shui struggled, she grabbed Xin Shui's ring finger and with a sickening crack, broke it.

A piercing scream escaped Xin Shui's lips. The moment her finger was broken, the pain nearly sent her fainting. But in the next instant, she understood what cruelty truly meant. Luoli, at some point, had drawn a dagger and slashed across her finger. The severed finger sent a searing pain throughout her body, blood flowing from the wound. Xin Shui cried out, beads of sweat forming on her brow as her gaze lost focus.

Loli placed her severed finger aside and wrapped it in a handkerchief.

"Before you make a move next time, use your brain. If you do it again, I'll twist your head off."

Luo Li retracted her fingers and looked at Xinshui, who was in so much pain that she was about to faint, with an emotionless expression.

"Go back to the Ghost Saint Kingdom, don't ever show your face in front of me again."

After he finished speaking, he got up and left. Shui wanted to call him back, but he was already far away.

"Li Wuyan, save me..."

Li Wu-yan's steps came to a halt. Looking at Xin Shui's expression, his eyes revealed his disgust for her without any pretense, and he left.

Xinshui watched their heartbroken backs disappear, covering her hands. But her body could no longer bear it and she fainted.

"Miss."

The crowd behind them was in chaos, but it did not stop Luo Li and Li Wu Yan from leaving.

"Can you just hand in the work to Fenglingxi like this"

Li Wuyan looked at the handkerchief clutched in Luoli's hand, "This kind of obsession will eventually ruin your plans."

It's almost dark now. At this point, even Feng Lingxi knows that Xinshui has run away. This woman is truly ruthless. But she forgot, no matter how capable she is, she's not the head of the Yao Clan. After all, when it comes to the Yao Clan, Luo Li's words still carry weight.

"I know, I can't kill her now."

The anger in Luoli's eyes burned fiercely. He was furious, and he desperately wanted to kill Xinshui to eliminate the threat, but Xinshui was the granddaughter of the Great Elder, who highly valued her. Killing her now would only provoke the Great Elder, and he wasn't willing to take that risk.

Furthermore, this water spirit often stirs up trouble for Feng Lingxi. To her, it's not really a bad thing.

Feng Lingxi lived too comfortably, so Yao Wan'ying wouldn't take action. And he would be unable to complete the task given to him by the Grand Elder.

After all, there's still some value to having a crush.

“This heartwater has killed how many soldiers from Dugu City. At that time, I will pay him back with as many lives. As for Feng Yumo's broken finger, Heartwater personally broke it, so I will pay him back. Feng Lingxi should be able to let go of this matter.”

After all, Feng Lingxi is not stupid. She should know the identity of this heartwater. Even if she wants to kill her, it's futile unless she can get rid of the Yao Clan. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to kill Xinshui, and that's all he could do.

Luoli and Li Wuyan returned to Chen Wangfu as the sky darkened. Seeing them return, Zhang You reported to Feng Lingxi and Dugu Cheng. At this time, it was just dinner time. Feng Lingxi and Dugu Cheng hurried over upon hearing the news. Looking at their return, the stone in their hearts also fell.

"This is for you."

Luoli passed the handkerchief wrapped in her hand with Xinshui's severed finger to Feng Lingxi, "Xinshui's finger, I cut it off to apologize to Feng Yumo. For the people she killed, I will also apologize to you. But Xinshui, I can't give her to you. She is the granddaughter of the Great Elder of Yaozu, and I cannot kill her."

>Qing He's case couldn't be investigated further. This Shu Taifei found woman was indeed problematic, she had to investigate the origins of these women and arrange for someone to watch Shu Taifei's sid...
