The Rebirth of a Concubine's Daughter and Her Heartless Lover!

Jedi strikes back

Shen Yiyao walked swiftly through the corridors of the Shen Mansion with calm and decisive steps. The atmosphere was oppressive and tense. Every step felt like treading on the edge of a knife, and the air around her became heavy. She no longer had any hesitation or wavering in her heart. She had only one goal in mind: Shen Qianyun.

Shen Qianyun obviously didn't underestimate her ability to fight back, otherwise he wouldn't have chosen such a swift and violent action. At this moment, Shen Yiyao clearly realized that Shen Qianyun didn't just want to take power from her, he wanted to completely suppress and eliminate her, and even use her to clear other obstacles for himself.

But Shen Yiyao wasn't a pawn to be manipulated. She had experienced too much turmoil and bloodshed, and was no longer the young, naive woman she once was. If Shen Qianyun thought she was weak and could be bullied, she was truly underestimating her.

Her gaze was sharp as a knife, and her steps were light and firm, like a cheetah quietly approaching its prey in the darkness. She wanted to let Shen Qianyun know that even when facing a powerful enemy, she had never been afraid.

Shen Yiyao gently stopped at the corner of the corridor and whispered, "Nangong Xiu, immediately send someone to guard the southeast corner and cut off their retreat. If anything seems amiss, notify me immediately."

Nangong Xiu's figure suddenly emerged from the shadows, his eyes still holding that calm and sharp light: "Miss, don't worry, all arrangements have been made. Tonight, we must not only protect the Shen Mansion, but also let Shen Qianyun know that his tricks will not succeed."

Shen Yiyao nodded slightly, her eyes becoming more determined. She understood that this struggle was not just about her own survival, but also about the future of the entire Shen Mansion, and even whether she could fully control the situation.

As night fell, the atmosphere in the Shen residence grew increasingly tense. Shen Yiyao knew that Shen Qianyun's men were lurking nearby, ready to attack at any moment. She couldn't afford to make any mistakes and had to use every resource at her disposal to disrupt Shen Qianyun's plans.

"Let's take action." Shen Yiyao whispered.

Following her orders, the Shen Mansion's defenses gradually opened up, like a sharp blade silently piercing Shen Qianyun's heart. Shen Yiyao knew in her heart that she had to race against time to quickly subdue the enemy and not give Shen Qianyun any chance to turn the tables.

At the end of the corridor, there was a sudden sound of footsteps, as if one of his men was quietly approaching. Shen Yiyao's heart moved, and she immediately adjusted her pace, quietly hiding in a corner, her eyes as sharp as a knife.

The man slowly approached, his eyes alert, the hilt of the knife in his hand. Shen Yiyao's eyes flickered slightly, and she took advantage of the man's unpreparedness and quietly attacked.

With a flip of her hand, the dagger flashed with a cold light and pierced the enemy's throat. Before the enemy could react, he fell to the ground, his body mutilated. Shen Yiyao held the dagger in one hand and the enemy's pulse with the other, quickly checking his identity.

Sure enough, this was a spy sent by Shen Qianyun.

A cold light flashed in Shen Yiyao's eyes. She retracted the dagger and said coldly, "Nangong Xiu, clean up the scene immediately and take this man away. We can't let Shen Qianyun know that we have launched a counterattack."

"Yes, Miss." Nangong Xiu responded and left.

Shen Yiyao stood there, her heart as calm as water. The people sent by Shen Qianyun were not only here to capture her, but also to investigate her background. If Shen Qianyun could learn of her movements in the shortest possible time, he would surely be able to quickly formulate the next step and block all her escape routes.

But Shen Yiyao is not an ordinary woman. She knows how to use her advantages very well - she knows how to use every inch of the Shen family's resources, even the loopholes that her opponents themselves have not noticed.

"We must speed up our actions." Shen Yiyao whispered, "Shen Qianyun is approaching, we can't let him have any chance to breathe."

Nangong Xiu's eyes fixed: "Yes, I will arrange it immediately."

The Shen Mansion remained silent at night, but hidden within this tranquility was a turbulent undercurrent. Shen Yiyao's actions were not only to protect herself, but also to completely shatter Shen Qianyun's conspiracy and destroy his foundation.

Meanwhile, Shen Qianyun was sitting on the other side of the Shen Mansion, quietly observing the surrounding movements. He had long sensed Shen Yiyao's counterattack and realized that Shen Yiyao was no pushover. Tonight, his goal was not just to weaken her power, but to eliminate her once and for all.

"Shen Yiyao." Shen Qianyun whispered softly, with a cold smile on his lips, "If you think you can escape from this game, you are really wrong."

At this moment, the guard beside Shen Qianyun hurried in with a serious expression: "Master, Shen Yiyao's people have begun to act, and our team has been ambushed by her assassins."

A flash of astonishment flashed across Shen Qianyun's eyes, and he quickly adjusted his thoughts: "She actually counterattacked so quickly. It seems that this woman is not only cunning, but also dangerous. Immediately mobilize more manpower. We must completely capture her before tonight."

Shen Qianyun stood up, a coldness creeping into his eyes. He knew Shen Yiyao was aware of the threat he posed to her, but that wouldn't change his resolve to eliminate her. Tonight, he wouldn't allow any surprises. He would take her down in one fell swoop, and eliminate the threat to Moon Shadow Palace as well.

He took a deep breath, a sneer on his face: "Shen Yiyao, you can escape tonight, but can you escape tomorrow?"

At the same time, Shen Yiyao and Nangong Xiu had already passed through the complex corridors of the Shen Mansion and quietly approached the side courtyard where Shen Qianyun was. She knew that this life-and-death battle was inevitable, but she was ready for this most intense challenge.

"Whoever survives tonight will control the future of the Shen family." Shen Yiyao said in her heart, her eyes full of determination and coldness.

She will no longer let Shen Qianyun take control of the initiative. This struggle will be dominated by her.
