Chapter 429: Young Master Su Is a Girl 26
She pieced together the body of the woman who had died and buried her.
Sitting there all night, it wasn’t until early the next day when the rain finally stopped.
Drenched through, she sluggishly left the place.
How old was she at that time?
Ten years old?
Eleven?
Ah, she had lived for tens of thousands of years, those events were almost forgotten by her.
But now, because of this, those memories were dug up once again.
Su Yan’s gaze watched those scenes of violent tearing.
She remained motionless the entire time.
Until those crazed, hate-filled people gradually regained their sanity.
Having killed those they hated, they took deep breaths and fled in a disheveled manner.
Most of the people left.
However, a very small number stayed seated in front of the dead, laughing hysterically.
Tears streaming down as they laughed, they collapsed to the ground, still laughing.
Presumably, they no longer wished to leave.
Tortured into a less-than-human state.
Where could they go now?
Su Yan withdrew her gaze.
Releasing her grip.
The dagger slid down, hitting the ground.
With a clatter.
The dagger made a crisp sound as it met the ground.
Drip-drop, drip-drop; blood fell from her fingertips to the ground.
She turned and began to walk out.
But as she reached the doorstep, her foot faltered, and the next moment she nearly fell to her knees.
Qin Qingyue hurriedly reached out,
"Young Master!"
He called out anxiously, steadying Su Yan.
On Su Yan’s body, covered with the bloodstains of the enemy, everyone thought she was unharmed because she remained indifferent from beginning to end.
There was a gash across her abdomen.
It had cut through her underclothes dyed red with blood.
Her hands were trembling.
They were losing strength.
After killing so many people, the edge of her dagger had curled, she had to switch it out, over and over again.
Now, her Physical Strength was merely that of an average human.
She had persisted until now purely on willpower.
Su Yan lowered her eyes and eyebrows; splattered blood on her cheeks concealed her pallid complexion.
The night deepened.
Apart from the insane laughter of women, the silence around was frightening.
Elsewhere.
A finely furnished mansion.
Under normal circumstances, he would have been resting at this hour.
But right now, he stood outside the window, watching the cold night approach, the cool breeze blowing.
There were no stars in tonight’s sky, obscured by clouds, the atmosphere oppressive and pitch-black.
It wasn’t a matter of not resting.
It’s just that, whenever he closed his eyes, he would see the image of Su Yan holding the Jade Token and staring blankly.
He couldn’t quite understand what was going on.
He felt something different about him, a departure from the Su Yan he had met before.
As he pondered, he suddenly let out a derisive laugh.
Could it be that he cared so much about him?
When did this begin?
After pondering for a while and getting nowhere, he lost the interest to continue thinking.
He turned and walked outside.
"Zuo Leng"
"Boss?"
"Check on the courtyard house."
"Yes."
Zuo Leng had been following Su Jiuci for many years and could quickly grasp his intentions.
Although the boss didn’t say it directly, the courtyard house... that’s where Qin Qingyue was arranged to rest this afternoon.
However....
When the two reached the courtyard house,
They got out of the carriage, only to find no one inside.
Su Jiuci narrowed his eyes, after a moment
"Find out where the Cao Family’s illicit workshop is."
Zuo Leng hurriedly nodded in agreement
"Yes, boss."
Following that, Zuo Leng hastily left.
Su Jiuci stood at the entrance.
No wonder he felt restless; how dare one bring an injured person to such a place?
Su Yan.
Your courage is truly great.
