After her mind was read, the spoiled brat became the darling of the whole group.

Xie Yuze was startled. "What's your name?"

But Xie Xing stared wide-eyed at the other side, his mouth slightly open, as if there was some terrifying person there.

Song Ci'an also looked over there in surprise.

But then Luo Hanfeng walked towards them from another cave entrance, a smile on his face: "You've all gathered here, which saves me the trouble of searching for you one by one."

"Xie Xing, we meet again."

"This time, let's see where you think you can escape to."

Song Ci'an immediately shielded Xie Xing behind him.

Xie Yuze: "..."

If you really say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be there.

Jun Lanjin followed behind Xie Yuze, arms crossed, looking at Xie Xing and the others with a half-smile.

"You go first." Song Ci'an turned around and looked at Xie Xing.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he stood still.

Xie Xing raised his head, his pupils trembled, and stared straight at Luo Hanfeng behind Song Ci'an.

Luo Hanfeng lazily raised his eyes. At this moment, his light brown pupils were deep and unfathomable, devoid of any emotion, and his expression carried a hint of impatience. "Sorry, I don't want to let any of you go now."

Song Ci'an opened his mouth.

So strong.

He had never received systematic training; he was simply naturally strong and powerful, and possessed the innate mind of a general, enabling him to use his troops effectively on the battlefield.

However, when it comes to one-on-one combat, he is still no match for Luo Hanfeng and the others.

Luo Hanfeng pressed his index and middle fingers together against Song Ci'an's vital point, but his gaze was fixed on Xie Xing, who was being protected behind Song Ci'an, and he asked, "Do you still want to escape now?"

Xie Xing's lips turned deathly pale in an instant.

"Or..." Luo Hanfeng looked at Xie Yuze, who was standing to the side, his fists clenched, his eyes filled with murderous intent as he glared at him, but dared not make a move, and asked, "Do you still want him to die again, in front of you?"

Xie Xing spoke up: "So, back in the dark room, it was you who killed my third brother?"

Luo Hanfeng refused to take the blame. He leaned down, aligning his gaze with Xie Xing's, and said, "Of course not. Your third brother was killed by Xie Mingzhu herself with a hairpin."

"However, I am very curious: why do people who are already dead come back to life?"

Luo Hanfeng looked at Xie Yuze.

Xie Yuze looked at him coldly.

"Xie Xing." Luo Hanfeng sighed, "I have been more lenient with you than ever. I have said that as long as you treat me the same way you treat Prince Jin, I will always be good to you."

I will always love you.

Jun Lanjin, who was standing behind him, raised an eyebrow slightly upon hearing this.

He was unaware of this whole affair between Luo Hanfeng and Xie Xing.

"But you insist on going against me." As Luo Hanfeng spoke, the smile on his face disappeared, and he looked at Xie Xing coldly: "Why would you rather be someone else's concubine than be my prince's wife, my future empress?"

Upon hearing this, not only Song Ci'an, but also Xie Yuze were shocked and looked at Luo Hanfeng.

what?

What is Luo Hanfeng saying?!

In his past life, he doted on Xie Mingzhu like a treasure, and would not allow anyone to hurt her, not even a single hair on her head.

But now, Luo Hanfeng is actually telling Xie Xing that he wants her to be his empress?!

What a joke.

In his past life, Xie Yuze witnessed firsthand how Luo Hanfeng had Xie Xing tortured.

Xie Xing can be with anyone, but that person cannot be Luo Hanfeng!

Xie Yuze couldn't hold back any longer and said, "What you're saying is utterly absurd!"

"You alone, you alone are not worthy to say such a thing!"

With that, Xie Yuze gritted his teeth, raised his sword, and thrust it toward Luo Hanfeng.

"I'm not worthy?!" A murderous glint flashed in Luo Hanfeng's eyes. Without even glancing at Xie Yuze, he flicked his sleeve, unleashing a powerful burst of internal energy that struck Xie Yuze directly.

"puff!"

Xie Yuze was seriously injured, and his body slammed into the wall, leaving a huge dent.

"Third Brother!" Xie Xing's expression changed drastically.

Luo Hanfeng turned around, his gaze icy as he looked at Xie Yuze: "I'm not worthy? Why wouldn't I be worthy?"

"Just because I am a prince born to a palace maid, does that give you the right to look down on me?"

"Who do you think you are?"

Luo Hanfeng flashed to Xie Yuze's side and stomped heavily on Xie Yuze's chest, landing right on Xie Yuze's wound.

"Ugh!" Xie Yuze cried out in pain, all the color draining from his face.

Luo Hanfeng looked down at Xie Yuze with an extremely cold gaze. He looked at Xie Yuze and said, "I'm curious, what have I done to you that makes you so hostile every time you look at me?"

Xie Yuze's eyes were bloodshot and filled with hatred as he stared at Luo Hanfeng. Enduring the pain, he said, word by word, "You deserve to die."

"You are a despicable person."

"You deserve to die."

The hatred of annihilating the entire family.

The pain of being slowly sliced ​​to death and humiliated.

Xie Yuze wrote it down one by one.

Luo Hanfeng said, "What did I do wrong that everyone hates and despises me?"

The Xie family wasn't the one who caused all of this.

What did the Xie family do wrong to be used by Luo Hanfeng to this extent?

What's most disgusting is that after he's used him, he still pretends to be the victim.

The big joke of slipping the world.

ridiculous!

Simply ridiculous!

Fate was in his hands, yet he claimed to be the most miserable person in the world.

"and many more!"

As Luo Hanfeng pressed harder and harder with his feet, Xie Yuze's face grew paler and paler, and blood even began to seep from his chest.

Xie Xing immediately shouted to stop.

"Luo Hanfeng! What do you want? I'll give it to you, I'll give it to you!"

"Stop it!"

Luo Hanfeng paused in his tracks.

"Xing'er!" Song Ci'an's expression changed. He grabbed Xie Xing's wrist and pulled her back forcefully. "This has nothing to do with you!"

Compared to Xie Yuze, Xie Xing was the person closest to him.

Call it selfish or whatever, Song Ci'an couldn't possibly stand by and watch Xie Xing jump into a fire pit.

Xie Xing bit her lip.

Xie Yuze cannot die now!

Both emotionally and rationally, she couldn't just stand by and watch Xie Yuze die.

Xie Xing shook off Song Ci'an's hand, came to Luo Hanfeng's side, stood in front of Xie Yuze, raised his head, and looked intently at Luo Hanfeng: "Don't kill him."

Luo Hanfeng looked down at Xie Xing.

There was no smile on that delicate face, and the gaze she gave him lacked even its usual warmth.

Luo Hanfeng's fingers curled up slightly.

He released Xie Yuze's foot, slowly bent down, and stroked Xie Xing's face with his cold hand. His light brown eyes looked at Xie Xing, and his voice was devoid of emotion: "You want him to live, but I don't want you to look at me like that."

"Xie Xing, you know what I want."

He wants to love.

A different kind of love.

A love that is unique.

In this world, no one but Xie Xing could give him love.

What he wanted—

We must take it by any means necessary.
