"You... you... *cough*..."
Yu Linglong was still convulsing.
She had no idea what sorcery Chu Qianli had used.
Just moments ago, when she was almost able to ruin Chu Qianli's face and was filled with excitement.
The short stick pressed against her lower abdomen suddenly emitted a powerful force.
In an instant, all her meridians felt as if they had been severed, and she completely lost all strength.
Afterward, she felt as if she had been poisoned, collapsing onto the ground, spewing out things that even she found disgusting.
Still convulsing, she had no strength whatsoever.
What was most infuriating was that this wench had actually used her shoe to step on her face!
Yu Linglong had never been so humiliated in her entire life!
"How is it? Very angry? Want to kill me?"
Chu Qianli withdrew her foot, squatted down, and looked at her bloodshot eyes.
"Jian Wuying is still recovering from his injuries. Now, there's no one to protect you, right?"
"You..." Yu Linglong's pupils contracted, and her whole body trembled.
Suddenly, she felt fear.
A fear that penetrated to her very bones!
How did this wench know...
"I was just guessing earlier, but now you've given me the answer. Jian Wuying is indeed your person."
The foremost assassin of the Northern Underworld Kingdom was actually willing to do her bidding.
Yu Linglong, it turned out, did have some tricks up her sleeve.
Even Chu Qianli had to admit her admiration.
"You truly are talented, but it's a pity your heart is too wicked."
Chu Qianli retracted the electric baton into her bracelet, no longer willing to spare Yu Linglong another glance, and turned to leave.
Behind her, Yu Linglong finally managed to catch her breath.
"You... you poisoned me... harmed me, aren't you afraid..."
"Are you sure you were poisoned?"
Chu Qianli sneered, "I'd like to see which doctor can detect any poison on you."
"Of course, you could also poison yourself to frame me. But you just staged a fake suicide by hanging. Do you think the Empress Dowager will believe you now?"
She had brought this upon herself. No matter what she said now, the Empress Dowager likely wouldn't believe her for a while.
Chu Qianli opened the door.
Yu Linglong was still unwilling to give up: "You think... Feng Yexuan truly... likes you? He protects you only because... you are... Long Qianyue's daughter."
Her entire body ached, and even speaking was difficult.
If not for her strong internal energy keeping her going, Yu Linglong would have fainted long ago.
She took a deep breath and said hoarsely, "If you weren't... Long Qianyue's daughter, everything you have now... would be... completely lost."
"Is that so?" Chu Qianli turned back and smiled at her, "It's a pity that I happen to be Long Qianyue's daughter. If you're not convinced, go find my mother in the underworld and argue with her."
With a bang, the door was closed.
Yu Linglong finally succumbed to exhaustion and collapsed completely onto the ground.
Chu Qianli!
Wench!
I won't let you have it so easy!
She would definitely find a way to kill Chu Qianli completely!
...It was time to leave the palace.
After Chu Qianli left Qingyang Palace, she went directly to the place where Feng Yexuan had asked her to wait.
Leng Ji and the carriage were waiting.
Qing Ming also returned with Feng Yexuan.
From a distance, the Prince Xuan's tall and jade-like figure was indeed dazzling.
No matter where he went, he became a captivating sight.
A careless second glance could easily lead one to lose themselves, unable to regain their senses.
Chu Qianli managed to avert her gaze with great effort.
This man was simply a demon!
From now on, it was best not to watch him walk unless absolutely necessary!
Even his walking posture was so handsome and graceful, it was practically cheating!
She withdrew her gaze and pretended not to care.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Feng Yexuan reached her, he asked indifferently, "I heard that after the Empress Dowager met you, she became unwell from anger?"
