The Evil King's Favorite: The Princess Is Too Cruel

"fart!"

Yuebai couldn't help but swear. He still felt resentful when he thought about this incident.

"If what you said is true, then how did the two groups of killers I sent out die? Did they commit suicide because they were depressed? Or was it that low-level magician you mentioned who killed them?" Yuebai glared at Liu Ruyan and sneered coldly.

"This..." Liu Ruyan was speechless, but she couldn't figure out what was going on! Logically speaking, it should be easy for the assassins from the Dark Pavilion to kill the orphans and widows in Jinyuan.

"What the hell!" Yue Bai glared and said arrogantly, "You caused me to lose so many of my men. You must take full responsibility!"

"Huh?" Liu Ruyan was stunned by Yue Bai's yelling. She stammered, "How...how can I be responsible?"

"Of course it's compensation!" Yue Bai said as a matter of course: "According to the amount of our transaction, one life is one million gold coins, and twenty lives is twenty million gold coins."

"What?!" Liu Ruyan was frightened by Yuebai Lion's loud mouth. Her eyes widened and she subconsciously yelled back, "Twenty million gold coins, are you trying to steal money?!"

"Why, you don't want to give it to me?" Yue Bai glanced at Liu Ruyan coldly and threatened in a low voice, "Then Madam Su, don't blame me for publicizing your transaction with the Dark Pavilion."

"Tell me, if the head of the Su family knew that you hired someone to assassinate the bloodline of his most beloved son, what would he do? Also, if the world knew that you wanted to harm your brother-in-law's family, would they still think you are dignified, elegant, gentle and kind? I'm afraid everyone will call you a vicious woman!" Yuebai spoke with a smile, and every word was like a knife stabbing Liu Ruyan's heart.

Hearing this, Liu Ruyan's expression turned cold. "Are you threatening me, Pavilion Master?"

"Of course." Yue Bai nodded, not feeling that there was anything wrong with threatening Liu Ruyan. He sneered and mocked, "Why, such an obvious threat, Madam Su couldn't hear it? Or..."

"Does it take me taking concrete action for Madam Su Er to understand that I am threatening you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a powerful pressure was released from Yuebai and pressed straight towards Liu Ruyan.

"Plop!" Liu Ruyan was pushed down onto the bed. Her face was pale and a layer of cold sweat instantly appeared on her forehead. She could feel a powerful force pressing on her, causing her whole body to ache and her meridians seemed to be broken.

Feeling the pain in her meridians, Liu Ruyan's eyes immediately showed a trace of panic. Although her talent for cultivation was not particularly good, she was now a seventh-level emperor after all. However, if her meridians were broken, she would lose all her cultivation and become useless!

No! I don't want to be a waste!

At this moment, Liu Ruyan no longer cared about arguing with Yuebai. She compromised with a trembling voice: "I... I will compensate..."

Seeing Liu Ruyan compromise, Yuebai didn't immediately withdraw his pressure. Instead, he raised his hand and casually scratched his ear, pretending he hadn't heard clearly. He asked, "Second Madam Su, what did you just say? I didn't hear you. Please say it again."

Even though she knew Yuebai had done it on purpose, Liu Ruyan could only grit her teeth and say word by word, "I... am willing... to compensate... the Dark Pavilion... for their losses... a total of... 20 million... gold coins!"

As the last word fell, Liu Ruyan felt her heart bleed. That was 20 million gold coins! Just like that, gone.

"Well, very good." Yue Bai nodded in satisfaction. He withdrew his pressure and said sarcastically in a calm tone, "If Madam Su had known the situation earlier, I wouldn't have taken action, and you wouldn't have suffered this."

Listening to Yuebai's words that were obviously mocking and ridiculing her, Liu Ruyan gritted her teeth in hatred, but she didn't dare to show it at all. She could only suppress her resentment in frustration.

She reluctantly took out a gold card and handed it to Yue Bai. There were exactly 20 million gold coins in it. They were prepared for her daughter Su Jingya, so that she could buy a good magic wand and some healing potions to prepare for the family trial in three months.

Yuebai took the gold card, scanned it with his mental power, and after confirming that there were 20 million gold coins inside, he put the gold card into his space ring without hesitation.

"Alright, I'll accept the compensation from Madam Su Er. I'll leave now and won't disturb Madam Su Er's rest."

Yue Bai said this and slowly stood up. He raised his hand and waved it, then put the armchair he had just sat on back into the space ring.

After finishing everything, Yuebai was about to leave through the window, but Liu Ruyan suddenly spoke up to stop him.

"and many more!"

The more Liu Ruyan thought about it, the more she felt that it was a wrong decision to approach the Dark Pavilion. In order to avoid being threatened by the other party in the future, she decided to cancel the transaction. Anyway, Su Qingning had been infected with the Soul-Devouring Gu, and she would sooner or later become a waste.

Once Su Qingning becomes a waste, she will be abandoned by the head of the family and the elders. Then, it will be much easier for her to deal with the orphans and widows in Jinyuan.

After thinking through the pros and cons, Liu Ruyan made up her mind. She looked at Yuebai and said, "Pavilion Master, I want to cancel the deal. You don't have to assassinate Su Huaijin's wife and children anymore."

"Oh?" Yue Bai turned around, looking at Liu Ruyan meaningfully, and said calmly, "According to the agreement, Madam Su's cancellation of the transaction constitutes a breach of contract. Breach of contract requires payment of double the penalty, which is eight million gold coins."

"What?!" Liu Ruyan stared at Yuebai in disbelief, and angrily said, "Pavilion Master, I advise you not to go too far!"

"Even if I'm bullying you, what can you do about it?" Yuebai glanced at Liu Ruyan with disdain and said impatiently, "Hurry up, eight million gold coins! I don't have time to waste with you. You'd better not test my patience."

When he said the last sentence, Yuebai's voice became noticeably colder, and there was a clear threat in his tone.

Liu Ruyan was still frightened by the previous pressure, and she did not dare to anger Yuebai. She could only reluctantly take out a silver card with eight million gold coins on it and hand it to Yuebai.

Yuebai took the silver card, and the depressed mood he had been in for the past two days immediately dissipated a lot. He squinted his eyes happily, raised his hand and waved gently towards Liu Ruyan.

"Then... Madam Su, I'll be leaving first. You should have a good rest. If you have business in the future, you are welcome to continue to contact us in the Dark Chamber."

After saying that, Yuebai jumped out of the window, leaving Liu Ruyan staring at the open window and sulking angrily.

"Damn it! This is all because of that little bitch Su Qingning. One day, this lady will make her live a life worse than death!"

Liu Ruyan was thinking viciously, but she didn't know that the soul-eating insect she prepared for Su Qingning had already entered the body of her own daughter Su Jingya. When she found out, it was too late.
