Chapter 15 - Before I Die

Ye Zhang's eyes widened. The woman in front of him was staring at him without blinking. It was as if she was looking at a corpse, sending a chill through him.

Her temperament was as cold as the moon in the sky. With a veil covering her face, the pair of almond-shaped eyes that were revealed were captivating. It was as deep and cold as a bottomless lake, surging with strong murderous intent.

It was as though he had seen a ghost. With a horrified expression, he asked, "Ye Shu?!"

He seemed to have seen Ye Shu appear from behind Ye Ting just now. In other words, could Ye Shu have been the person who injected spirit energy into Ye Ting and sent him flying with a slap?

Since when did she have such powerful spiritual force?

Ye Shu walked straight over to help Ye Ting up and continuously poured spiritual power into his body. Only then did he slowly wake up. He opened his eyes groggily and was slightly stunned to see Ye Shu.

"Shu-er?" He suddenly came to and hurriedly pushed Ye Shu away. He widened his eyes and shouted anxiously, "Quick, run! Shu-er, don't bother about me, run! Ye Zhang's strength is not to be underestimated. You can't beat him!"

The coldness that spread throughout her body suddenly dissipated, and her eyes welled up with tears. This was her father. Even if his life was in danger, her safety was his foremost concern.

"Father, don't worry. I'll get you out safely. I'll also save mother," Ye Shu said softly. She used her index finger on Ye Ting's acupoints to stabilize him. When Ye Ting realized what she wanted to do, he shouted anxiously, "Come back! Shu-er…"

Ye Shu did not pay heed to the movements behind her. She flew towards Ye Zhang. The long sword in her hand was extremely sharp, as if it was going to cut through the sky. It reflected her cold and bone-chilling face as she walked towards him step by step!

No matter how powerful a Divine Lady's bloodline was, her oppressive might was always overwhelming!

The strong pressure took Ye Zhang aback. He held back his fear and stood at the same spot. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Ye Shu, "What do you want?"

Ye Shu looked at him coldly. Her wrist trembled slightly. At this moment, a wave of sword qi broke through the shackles in the air and rushed towards him! Ye Zhang's blood rushed up from the shock. He knelt on the ground, bleeding.

The surrounding servants were furious and surrounded her to attack with strong spiritual force. Ye Shu swung the sword in her hand and glanced at them coldly. She sneered.

"You've overestimated yourselves."

"Ah—"

The screams echoed in the Ye Residence, causing the crows in the surrounding forest to fly! The servants were sprawled in pools of blood while Ye Zhang was lying on the ground, bleeding from his mouth. He gritted his teeth and looked at her.

"Wretch!"

Ye Shu was unmoved. She looked down at him and smiled. She walked over and stepped on his chest fiercely, pointing her sword at his throat. "Hand over the antidote."

Ye Zhang pretended not to understand and asked coldly, "What antidote?"

At this moment, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen. Ye Shu laughed softly and took out the medicine bottle. She sprinkled the powder on him. His abdomen was in intense pain as if it was being eaten by ants. Sweat broke out on his forehead and his face gradually became distorted.

"You'd better think it through before you speak. Otherwise, I'll have a hundred ways to torture you."

Ye Zhang gritted his teeth, his eyes burning. "I don't know!"

Before he could finish his sentence, his abdomen suffered a heavy blow. With a whoosh, Ye Shu brandished her long sword. The flesh on his abdomen was cut into pieces. Ye Zhang could not help but let out a scream. Just as Ye Shu was about to continue attacking, Ye Zhang spoke up.

"I'll give it to you! Stop torturing me!"

Ye Shu retracted her hand and quietly watched Ye Zhang roll on the ground in agony. Then, he slowly took out a medicine bottle from his sleeve. She took it and sniffed it. After confirming that it was not poisonous, she put it away.

At this moment, Ye Zhang's expression changed. He threw out an item from his sleeve. In a split second, a stream of light flew into the sky above the Ye Residence. Immediately after, a clear voice exploded in the sky!

Ye Shu's heart sank. This was the Ye Residence's special emergency summoning order! Once it was activated, the Ye Residence would open up an inescapable net. Furthermore, the people from the Ye Family would sense it and come back to help. They would also activate the protective array!

"Hahaha! Ye Shu, don't even think about escaping now! You won't be able to escape! This will be the date of your death anniversary!"

Ye Zhang threw his head back and laughed wantonly. His eyes were filled with the excitement and pleasure of revenge. Suddenly, a hole appeared in his chest. He looked at Ye Shu in disbelief. She was slowly pulling back the sword that was stabbed into Ye Zhang's chest. Her lips curled up.

"Even if I die, you will die before me."

He was furious, but the blood in his chest flowed even faster. His vision darkened and he slowly fainted…
