Li Ruoran chewed on the wings of a butterfly, muttering Yun An'an's name viciously. The hatred in her eyes was intense, wishing to swallow Yun An'an whole and be content.

"For the time being, you must remain within these grounds to recover. Do not allow anyone to know of your whereabouts."

Under the moonlight, Han Qing walked away with his hands behind his back. He didn't even glance at Li Ruolan, and there was no trace of pity in his eyes that gazed at the moon.

Standing beside him, Nan Tuo also shook his head. While his expression showed pity and sympathy for Li Ruolan's situation, his eyes were filled with a cold indifference.

Why is Ruolan girl so anxious, just to provoke Yun Anan.

The pain had already robbed Li Ruolan of her former patience. Her face, ashen and grim, stared at Han Qing and Nan Tuo with a sneer.

"How come I always seem to stir trouble with Yun AnAn"

When it comes to Yun An'an, Li Ruolan’s heart is filled with a thousand kinds of hatred.

"Han Qing, was it you who leaked information and caused me to be exposed"

Li Ruolan looked at Han Qing's gaze, even colder. She struggled to get up and ask for clarification, but was kicked away by Han Qing, crashing into a wooden pillar.

Poof—

A mouthful of fresh blood gushed out, Li Ruolan covering her aching heart, smiling even colder.

"Han Qing ah Han Qing, you are truly infatuated. Yun An'an has no place for you in her eyes at all. I pity you."

Perhaps a single sentence struck Han Qing's heart. If not for Nan Tuo's intervention, Li Ruolan would have been dead by now.

General Han, we still need the influence of Xue Yi Lou. Do not act impulsively.

As they spoke, Nan Tuo had already walked close to Li Ruolan's face and was quietly looking at the woman who had become a cripple before his eyes.

"Miss Ruolan, Yun An'an is of great use to us. Why are you so eager Besides, General Han and Yun An'an are bound by a life-and-death curse. If you harm Yun An'an, you will naturally also harm General Han."

Having said that, Nan Tuo took out a silver needle and directly pierced it into Li Ruolan's acupoint.

"What are you doing!"

It's nothing, just some tricks to keep you in line.

Nantuo's strike was swift and merciless. With a single blow, he immobilized Li Ruolan, leaving her stiff and unable to move or speak.

His eyes seemed to accuse Nantuo of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge.

"Miss Ruolan, you need not look at me like this. Had it not been for someone in the palace speaking to you, I doubt you would be so eager to have General Han killed."

If you want to blame anyone, it's your own insatiable greed that got you here.

Nan Tuo stood up and signaled the guards to carry Li Ruolan to the bed and confine her there. For now, she was not to be allowed to die.

The door slammed shut, and Han Qing narrowed his eyes, a murderous glint in them.

Nan Tuo frowned as he came to Han Qing's side, recalling what had happened when the assassins attacked Yingtian Academy that day.

General Han, with the Gongsun clan as his backing, General Yuwen still has some use.

Besides, the Southern Border Kingdom is already under our control. If we allow the newly emerging forces of the United Witch Nations to flourish, it will only benefit our plans.

After a moment of silence, Han Qing finally spoke.

"Kill everyone who has come into contact with the feathergrass, none spared."

……

In the courtyard of Yi Wangfu.

Yun'an sat in a rocking chair, eating snacks, drinking tea and chatting gossip with Old Wangye.

"Someone tampered with the evidence, and the leads on the Yukigusa case have gone cold."

Even the Kirin Guard could not track down the source; the clues suddenly snapped in the middle.

Just like someone who has touched the feather grass is instantly erased, vanishing without a trace from this world.

"Still thinking about it If I were in your position, I would send everyone who had come into contact with the feather-wearing grass to the afterlife."

Lying on the rocking chair on the other side, Old Master Wang was cracking melon seeds while answering Yun An'an's questions, and raised a bigger question in return.

"Who wants to cooperate with Xueyi Lou, and what is the purpose... Also, who was the person who wrote you an anonymous letter"

Compared to the first two points, Old Wang cares more about the latter half.

After reading the anonymous letter, the person who wrote it had investigated Li Ruolan thoroughly, even more so than he himself could have.

Who is this person

However, whoever it is, at least the person who wrote the anonymous letter is temporarily on the same side as Yun An'an.

"I also want to know, at first I even guessed you were with Dean Yu."

What about now What if I were the one who wrote the anonymous letter

"Impossible, given your and Yu Changyuan's personalities, if you knew this information, you would have ridden to Yiwu Palace in minutes to swindle me out of some money."

And the writer did not ask for any return, not even a penny.
