Digging up spiritual roots and seizing blood? You scumbags, wait and tremble.

Mu Jinning, who she thought was with her childhood sweetheart, had just come out from the imperial concubine and was striding out of the palace.

In the hall behind him, Concubine Xiao sat there with tears on her face and a gleam in her eyes.

Her always obedient and filial son suddenly told her that if she dared to make a move on that ugly woman again, he would sever the mother-son relationship with her?

That wasn't her son at all.

Prince Ning was clearly unwilling to accept the marriage with the Zhong family before, so why was there such a reversal later?

But thinking about the strength of that ugly woman, she tried to convince herself to calm down.

"Aunt." Xiao Ruoxuan bit her lower lip in grievance, but endless hatred flashed in her eyes.

Just now, her cousin told her aunt clearly in front of her that he would never marry her, even if she was a concubine, he would not want her.

She was a young lady from a noble family, raised in pampered condition. How could she have been humiliated like this?

However, this man is her cousin, the person she has loved since childhood, and may even be the future emperor.

She hated, but not him, but Zhong Ran.

That ugly girl actually dared to give her the sterilization drug.

Although the imperial physician prescribed her some medicine for conditioning, he only said that because the Chinese medicine had only been used for a short time, it might be able to cure the problem.

But even if it could be solved, she would still have difficulty getting pregnant in the future.

That bitch, she wants her dead.

Concubine Xiao came back to her senses, hiding the pain in her eyes, and said gently, "Xuan'er, please leave the palace first. I will discuss this with the Emperor and will definitely allow you to marry into Prince Ning's mansion in a legitimate manner."

"You are the only daughter-in-law that my aunt approves of, and that will never change."

Zhong Ran, that disaster star, must have poisoned her son, which is why he protects her so much.

In this case, let the emperor directly issue an order to grant the marriage.

The Xiao family is her maiden family and also King Ning's greatest supporter. She cannot be allowed to marry anyone else.

As for not being able to have children? I could just adopt two and raise them under my name.

Xiao Ruoxuan responded softly, said goodbye and left the palace.

When she got into her own carriage, her face was distorted and she didn't feel any pain even when her nails dug deep into her hands.

Zhong Ran, I will make sure you die without a burial place.

When she returned to the Xiao family, Mrs. Xiao came out to greet her, hugged her tightly in her arms and cried bitterly.

"Xuan'er, why did you go and provoke that disaster star?"

They had already received the news from the palace at home, so they came to the door to greet them.

Xiao Ruoxuan did not shed tears, but just looked at the young man who was walking towards her step by step.

"Brother, I want that woman to die without a burial place."

Xiao Jinyuan nodded slightly: "Big brother will help you with this matter, but that woman is extremely evil, we can't confront her directly."

Xiao Ruoxuan's words became increasingly vicious. "I want her to die without a burial place, her cultivation destroyed, and thrown into a pile of beggars to serve those disgusting things. I want everyone in the city to know this."

"Don't worry, I know what to do."

Madam Xiao gently let go of her daughter and said worriedly, "Yuan'er, I heard that the evil star is very unlucky. Otherwise, we should..."

"Mom, am I really your daughter? She bullied me like this, and you still stop my brother from avenging me?"

Xiao Ruoxuan's eyes were red and her face was ferocious. "Where did this disaster star come from? It's just rumors spread by those people outside."

Mrs. Xiao shrank back and didn't dare to speak again.

Mu Jinning didn't care about what happened later, but he also asked people to secretly pay attention to the movements of the Xiao family.

He went to the Marquis' Mansion to find Zhong Ran.

Although the two were an engaged couple, he had been here once before, but he did not see Zhong Ran at that time.

This time his goal was clear, he came to find Zhong Ran.

After Zhong Ran came back, he did not go back to Dailan Garden, but went to Zhong Yan's yard.

Yu Su heard that she was back and came over: "Young lady, why are you here?"

Zhong Ran waved at her and chuckled, "Yusu, I brought some food back for Xiaoyan. Come over and sit down with us to eat."

Yusu looked at Zhong Yan hesitantly before walking over.

However, as soon as she approached the table, she felt a vague devouring force, and her cultivation, which had been stabilized with great difficulty thanks to the elixir, began to dissipate again.

She was startled and quickly stood up and walked out.

Zhong Ran raised his eyebrows, but stared at her: "What's wrong?"

The fear on Yusu's face had not yet dissipated, so she quickly lowered her head.

"Miss, it's nothing, it's just that this servant is not qualified to sit with you, Miss, and Young Master."

"Oh, then you go back and wait for me." Zhong Ran didn't force her anymore and let her leave.

Yu Su looked at the brother and sister deeply, but they did not look at her again. Instead, they lowered their heads to eat and passed food to each other.

What happened just now? Why was there such a devouring force? Could it be from the young master?

But, when she was a child, she also held a little boy in her arms, so she didn't feel anything.

Also, the young lady was sitting there with no reaction at all. What was going on?

She walked out of the yard and looked back, frowning, feeling that something was wrong.

She left immediately and asked a servant about the two young masters.

This question was not a big deal, she was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth for a long time.

The young lady knows martial arts? And her martial arts skills are quite high?

Can the young master devour all of a person's flesh and blood?

So, could the devouring power she felt just now have come from the young master? But why was the young lady fine?

Thinking of this, her eyes darkened slightly and she slowly walked towards Dailan Garden.

Mu Jinning was brought in by a servant and happened to meet her.

She looked at Prince Ning and saw the dragon-shaped jade pendant on his waist, then she bowed slightly.

"This slave has met the prince."

She didn't know which prince he was, but it was definitely a prince.

Mu Jinning just took a glance and then looked away, turned and left.

Yu Su didn't care. In the palace, these princes would definitely be cautious when they saw her.

But now we are in the Marquis' Mansion, I'm afraid he thinks I'm just an ordinary slave?

Mu Jinning arrived at Zhong Yan's yard, asked the servants to leave, and went in himself.

Zhong Ran looked up at him without saying a word, then lowered his head to pick up some food for Zhong Yan.

He had no choice but to sit next to her, take out a crystal card from his arms and hand it to her.

"This is the proceeds from the elixir auction. It's all stored here. It's universal in all Xianke Towers, and you can take it all out."

Seeing that he was bringing her gold, she reached out to take it, still without saying a word.

He said helplessly: "Ranran, I'm sorry about what happened today. That was not my intention. You know, there is no way I could have any feelings for her."

Zhong Ran thought about it and it made sense. The current Prince Ning was no longer the original Prince Ning, but her senior brother.

"What does your business with her have to do with me?" She turned her head away awkwardly and didn't look at her.

Seeing her awkward look, Mu Jinning raised the corners of his lips slightly.

But when he saw Zhong Yan looking at him with burning eyes, he rolled his eyes at him and said, "Hurry up and eat yours. I have something to tell your sister."

After saying that, he pulled Zhong Ran and walked outside.
