The eldest daughter's scheming, the crown prince's exclusive favor to the venomous concubi

Hua Xiangrong's words were harsh, and even Qiu Zifan, who was usually very magnanimous, changed his expression. His eyes suddenly turned dangerous, his lips curled up, and his fingers curled slightly, from which a black worm emerged.

Seeing this, Hua Xiangrong narrowed her eyes, her gaze filled with disdain, and said, "More bugs, how disgusting."

Seeing this, Jian Yue stepped forward and suddenly laughed: "Third Young Master Qiu, Jian Yue can't accept being called Sixth Sister by Third Young Master. The Qiu family has nothing to do with me. If you were the one who orchestrated all the Qiu family's insects, then I believe you know all about it. So why put on airs here?"

I, Shangguan Jianyueheng, have never changed my name or surname, nor have I ever feared anything. What do you want from me today? Just say it directly. If you don't, then it's like a good dog not blocking the way. Third Young Master, you make the decision; don't delay our journey.”

Upon hearing this, Qiu Zifan withdrew his hand, a hint of disappointment suddenly appearing in his eyes. He said, "Sixth Sister's heartlessness really saddens me. Doesn't Sister understand that everything I've done from beginning to end has been for you?"

Although my actions were one-sided, I did protect you and raise you to adulthood, Sixth Sister. There's a saying that debts must be repaid; it's only right and proper. You owe me your life, and now that we've met again, you must repay it, mustn't you?"

Hua Xiangrong burst into laughter, pointing at Qiu Zifan and saying, "Are you dreaming? Protecting me? What are you protecting? It's more like a scheme. Besides, you want Yueyue to give you back your life? Do you want her to pay with her own?"

Qiu Zifan looked at Hua Xiangrong and said coldly, "Crazy woman, this time your words are fair enough. However, I will not take Sixth Sister's life. After all, I have put a lot of effort into protecting her so that she has grown up so well."

"Yueyue, that sounds so nice. From now on, I'll call my sixth sister Yueyue. It's simple, convenient, and sounds affectionate."

Bai Jianan was furious at these words. He said coldly, "Enough with the nonsense. I've already said that a good dog doesn't block the way. If you don't leave, I'll kill you."

"Slay? Young Master, your Gu poison hasn't healed yet, and your skills aren't necessarily that high. It doesn't seem so easy for you to take my life now."

"Besides, I'm covered in those insects you all despise right now. Imagine if you slashed me, bang! My body exploded, and those insects rained down on you, scattering all over you and burrowing into your bodies. What would that be like?"

As he spoke, he suddenly burst into laughter. After laughing for a long time, he stopped and looked at Jian Yue. Suddenly, he became affectionate and said, "Yueyue, you should know that I have never lived at home for long since I was a child. The reason is actually you."

I can't bear to see you suffer, I can't bear to see you treated like that, but I'm not capable enough to do it, I can't save you. So, I gathered herbs to learn skills. Look, now I've mastered my studies, I can protect you and help you, much better than that good-for-nothing son of yours.

Faced with someone so outstanding, you should be smitten, my Yueyue. Come to me, I'll help you get revenge, I'll help you kill everyone who stands in your way. As long as you're with me, you'll have anything you want.

Hua Xiangrong couldn't help but complain, looking at Jian Yue and saying, "Luckily you're not from the Qiu family, otherwise you'd definitely have something wrong with your brain too."

Jian Yue chuckled and said, "Yes, I'm not a member of the Qiu family. That's good, Third Young Master. If you once saved me, then I can only say thank you. After all, my misfortunes happened because of your Qiu family. I can't give you anything more."

As for Xiao Cui, I have nothing to do with her anymore. I don't care if she's one of yours or one of Murong Chuan's, she's not one of mine. Even if she's by my side, she has ulterior motives. Why should I be grateful to someone you've placed by my side with ulterior motives? That would be truly insane.

So, I'll say it again: a good dog doesn't block the way. I hope you'll be a good dog.

This time, Qiu Zifan was finally provoked. He frowned, a hint of displeasure in his eyes, and said coldly, "Are you really going to refuse my feelings?"

Jian Yue shrugged, looking innocent, and said, "There are many people who are sincere towards me. If I accepted them all, I wouldn't be able to handle it myself! Besides, who do you think you are? Why should I accept whatever you say?"

Qiu Zifan was immediately annoyed. With a slight twitch of his finger, the insect reappeared on his fingertip, this time not just one, but several.

He was taken aback and said, "If that's the case, what more is there to say?"

As he spoke, the insects suddenly landed on the ground, and then insects swarmed out from the black-clad men around them. Instantly, the carriage was surrounded by a sea of ​​insects, causing the horses to neigh and thrash about in panic.

The horses' panic caused the carriage to sway uncontrollably, making the passengers uncomfortable. Hua Xiangrong immediately drew a short blade from her waist and cut the horse's reins. She then jumped onto the horse and fired several thunderbolts at the carriage.

Bai Jianan and Jian Yue rose into the air, and the carriage exploded the next moment, with wood chips flying in all directions. At the same time, a strong smell of mugwort appeared.

Immediately, the surrounding insects became restless and retreated.

Upon seeing this, Qiu Zifan suddenly smiled and said, "Mugwort can indeed repel insects, but these are not ordinary insects. It only provides a temporary relief, and then the mugwort will have no effect."

Hua Xiangrong rode her horse recklessly around, her crossbow already having killed more than a dozen people. Hearing Qiu Zifan speak, she laughed and replied, "That's exactly the buffer I needed. I said, you sissy, take this!"

After she finished speaking, she pulled out a hidden dart and stabbed it in the horse's rump. The horse neighed in pain and galloped wildly, breaking out of the encirclement and heading in an unknown direction. Qiu Zifan did not chase after it, but looked at Bai Jianan, who had already landed, and said, "Your companions have abandoned you. Is this supposed to be a challenge for me? I'm afraid it's a feint, and they ran away on their own!"

As he was speaking, he suddenly heard a whooshing sound behind his head. His pupils contracted instantly, and he turned his head sharply. A crossbow bolt whistled past his ear. He was startled again and quickly ducked to avoid the second arrow. He then rolled on the ground to barely dodge the third arrow.

After three arrows, he was already in a sorry state. Hua Xiangrong stood on the outer edge of the encirclement, smiling wickedly, and patted the crossbow on her arm, saying: "Do you think I'm one of your Qiu family? You think you can just run away when you can't win?"

"Don't say I can't beat you. Right now, I could easily handle all of you. It's just that I'm usually too lazy to move, which is why you think I'm insignificant. That's not good, I'm angry!"

As she spoke, a smirk appeared on her lips, and a murderous glint appeared in her eyes. She split the crossbow bolt in two, making two in total, one in each hand, and sneered at the remaining men, "Dare to touch my man, and I'll make sure none of you see the sun rise tomorrow."

As she spoke, the crossbow moved, and a silver light flashed on the crossbow, which was invisible to the naked eye. Instantly, a fine rain of silver needles came whistling through the air. Bai Jianan felt a headache coming on and jumped into the air again, saying to Jian Yue, "Your sister is too reckless."

Jian Yue suddenly laughed, abruptly pushed Bai Jianan away, her eyes filled with her usual arrogance and domineering air, and looked at Bai Jianan, saying: "Reckless things can't be done by one person alone. It's too boring to do it alone."

As she spoke, she landed easily, spun around, and was already out of reach of the silver needles. With a flick of her sleeve, a curved blade appeared, and then the mechanism on the blade was activated, reaping the lives before her inch by inch.

The thought of murder still disgusted her, but at this moment, she was smiling.

Watching the men in black fall one by one, and the insects on the ground all burned to death by the thunderbolts, she felt an unusual sense of pleasure.

She wasn't a bloodthirsty person, nor was she a well-trained killer like Hua Xiangrong, born specifically to kill. Yet, at this moment, she was truly enjoying the ultimate thrill of killing.

Seeing this, Qiu Zifan's killing intent grew stronger. He quickly darted behind Jian Yue, intending to launch a sneak attack, but Jian Yue dodged him. Jian Yue turned around, faced him directly, and smiled, "Gu worms are ineffective against me. Don't waste your time."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Zifan said unwillingly, "Your mother sent me to pick you up. Come with me."

Jian Yue was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this, but only for a second. She shook her head and smiled, "I will handle my mother's matter personally. Regardless of whether what you say is true or false, you will stay here today."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Zifan became anxious and continued, "How can you be so heartless? I used the Gu poison on Murong for you, I caused the destruction of the Qiu family for you, and I even caused internal strife in Miao territory for you. I have given everything for you, so why won't you like me?"

Upon hearing this, Jian Yue's eyes flashed with mockery. She then saw Hua Xiangrong walk up to her, put her elbow on her shoulder, and looked at Qiu Zifan with a smile, saying, "Are you really an idiot? Let alone the fact that our Yueyue has someone she likes, just look at you, you're ugly as a crap and covered in bugs. Do you really think every girl should like you?"

Jian Yue chimed in, "Yes, some people are just so shameless. Isn't that the essence of the Qiu family? Sister, why am I so unlucky to have to get involved with the Qiu family!"

Hua Xiangrong immediately tapped her head and laughed, "It's okay, with your sister here, you definitely won't be disgusted to the point of vomiting by those Qiu family people. If you really do vomit, don't worry, your sister will take care of you."

The two spoke without any restraint, thoroughly enraging Qiu Zifan. However, after glancing at Bai Jianan, who was silently watching him from the side, he ultimately didn't dare to move. He merely gave Jian Yue a cold look and suddenly laughed:

"Sixth Sister is so heartless, I have nothing more to say. It's just a pity that everything your aunt planned for you has gone to waste. Sixth Sister, no matter how much you resent me, you should understand your mother's good intentions for you. It's okay if you don't come with me. When you find your mother, I believe she will say the same thing as me."

"In that case, we'll meet again sometime today, Yueyue. I'll be waiting for you."
