Rebirth as the Richest Woman in the World
Chapter 493, (second update)

Chapter 493: 493, (second update)

Faced with such a sudden change, Mu Xianxian was entirely stunned.

Her eyes widened, gripping Zheng Chuyi’s arm tightly, her face filled with disbelief. The sister Chuyi she trusted the most was actually going to kill her one day.

That was something no one could accept.

"Sister Chuyi, you’re joking with all of us, aren’t you?" Mu Xianxian’s voice trembled, and despite the situation having progressed to this point, in her heart, she still chose to believe in Zheng Chuyi.

Even if the whole world betrayed her, she still refused to believe that her sister Chuyi would betray her.

Mu Xianxian cried very sadly.

Even sadder than when Jiang Mubai died.

She couldn’t believe everything that was happening before her eyes.

"Did you hear that?" Zheng Chuyi raised her eyes to look at everyone before speaking again, "I told you to tie up Mo Qingyi right now, or else Mu Xianxian is going to lose her life!"

As her words fell, she increased the strength in her hands, and a ’crack’ echoed through the air, as if Mu Xianxian’s neck could be snapped at any second.

A surge of intense pain hit, and Mu Xianxian realized that Zheng Chuyi was not joking—she really might kill her at any moment.

"Brother Nian, save me..." Mu Xianxian’s face turned red with suffocation, and in desperation, she could only look to Zhou Xunian for help. Zhou Xunian had been so kind to her; surely he wouldn’t stand by and do nothing.

Zhou Xunian clenched his fists, his eyes filled with anxiety.

He could neither tie up Mo Qingyi for real nor watch Mu Xianxian be strangled to death.

He was caught between a rock and a hard place.

What should he do now?

"I’ll count to three, and if you don’t act by then, don’t blame me for being rude!" Zheng Chuyi’s eyes were filled with ruthlessness as she tightened her grip on Mu Xianxian’s neck, "Three, two..."

"Go ahead, strangle her," Mo Qingyi said with a smile in her eyes, nonchalantly cleaning her ears, "Just strangle her to death and be done with it. Why bother with all this trouble? It also saves leaving a blind person alive, wasting air on earth."

That attitude was truly infuriating.

"You!" Clearly, Zheng Chuyi had not expected Mo Qingyi to say such a thing, and a look of anger flickered across her face.

Zheng Chuyi had no choice but to turn her gaze to Zhou Xunian, "Zhou Xunian! Tell me, do you want her to live, or to die?"

"Brother Nian, save me, don’t listen to that woman; save me, I don’t want to die..." Mu Xianxian’s face was drained of color with fear. Mo Qingyi was too wicked, actually suggesting she should die.

If she could survive this ordeal, she would never share the sky with Mo Qingyi.

Zhou Xunian raised his eyes to Mu Xianxian and comforted, "Xianxian, don’t be scared. I will find a way to save you."

Not to mention the deep affection he had for Mu Xianxian, having watched her grow up from childhood, but her status alone meant he could not stand by and do nothing. Mu Xianxian was the only daughter of the second Elder.

If she encountered any trouble in the secular world, would the Grand Elder forgive him?

But at this moment, he really couldn’t think of any other way to save Mu Xianxian.

Left with no choice, Zhou Xunian could only look to Mo Qingyi for help.

Seeing this, Duanmu Zhe stepped in front of Mo Qingyi at once, "Zhou Xunian, I’d advise you not to mess with Qingyi, or I will be the first to let you have it."

In that moment, Mo Qingyi suddenly felt a bit of a palpitation.

She realized that this Duanmu Xiaosi was actually quite manly.

But that feeling was fleeting.

Mo Qingyi pushed Duanmu Zhe aside, walked over to Zhou Xunian, and conjured a rope out of thin air to hand to him, "Go on, tie me up, and exchange for your little blind girl."

"Qingyi, what are you talking about!" Duanmu Zhe hurriedly snatched the rope from her hands. He couldn’t let Mo Qingyi take such a risk. Ropes were a spiritualist’s nemesis.

Once a spiritualist was bound by a rope, they became no different from a normal person. By then, Mo Qingyi would be completely at Zheng Chuyi’s mercy.

"Zhou Xunian, try to tie one up and see if I don’t take you down!" Duanmu Zhe angrily pointed at Zhou Xunian.

Zhou Xunian was also helpless. He did not know what to do.

"Zheng Chuyi, wake up. Have you forgotten the last words Jiang Mubai said to you before he died? Turn back," In a dilemma, Zhou Xunian could only look back to Zheng Chuyi, hoping to convince her with words.

"Don’t mention Mubai to me!" Zheng Chuyi’s face, which had calmed down, instantly twisted with fury as she yelled at Zhou Xunian, "If it weren’t for all of you, how would Mubai have died? You better move faster, or I’ll send Mu Xianxian down to join Mubai in death right away!"

Zheng Chuyi placed the entirety of Jiang Mubai’s death on everyone else, without feeling any guilt herself.

As long as they tied up Mo Qingyi, she would still be the victor.

Zheng Chuyi had planned perfectly.

And she wouldn’t allow herself to fall so easily.

"Here, I know you can’t bear to tie up that little blind girl, so do it." Mo Qingyi walked up to Zhou Xunian again and passed him the rope.

"Qingqing! Have you lost your mind?" Duanmu Zhe was on the verge of frenzy.

Mo Qingyi gave him a gentle wink, "Don’t worry, Duanmu Xiaosi, you’re not dead yet. How could I possibly die before you?"

Zhou Xunian’s hands trembled as he picked up the rope, gritting his teeth, "I’m sorry, sister Qingyi!" With a determined heart, he tied a death knot around Mo Qingyi’s wrists.

"You bastard!" Duanmu Zhe landed a punch right on Zhou Xunian’s face. As he tried to strike again, he was subdued by the people from the Superpower World behind him.

The few cannot stand against the many.

Perhaps, in their hearts, Mo Qingyi’s life isn’t as valuable as Mu Xianxian’s.

Just imagine, if at this moment Madame Mo and Tong Zhi were conscious, what would they think?

Compared to Duanmu Zhe’s raging anger, Mo Qingyi seemed indifferent, even with her hands tied she didn’t look disheveled.

"Hurry and throw the rope over!" Zheng Chuyi’s eyes gleamed with triumph, seeming as though even the heavens were on her side.

Her life was not meant to end.

Joy painted Mu Xianxian’s face; she knew her elder brother Zhou would not leave her to die.

Zhou Xunian held one end of the rope, hesitating.

Even as Duanmu Zhe was restrained, he struggled, "Zhou, if you dare throw that rope over today, I swear I’ll carve you into a thousand pieces!"

"Throw it here, now!" Zheng Chuyi continued to pressure Zhou Xunian from the other side, increasing her grip progressively.

Mu Xianxian’s face turned crimson with strain, emitting painful groans.

A look of agony crossed Zhou Xunian’s face. He looked up and shouted fiercely, "Zheng Chuyi, you better keep your word. I’ll throw the rope over, and you let Xianxian go!"

"Deal!" Zheng Chuyi said coldly.

Zhou Xunian clenched his teeth, as if making a great decision, and threw the long rope over.

At the same moment, Duanmu Zhe roared, "Zhou Xunian, you son of a bitch!"

As she watched the rope flying over, a cold smile touched the corners of Zheng Chuyi’s mouth. She gathered Spiritual Power in her left hand and struck Mu Xianxian hard in the back. With a ’puff,’ Mu Xianxian spat out blood and her body plummeted forward.

Zheng Chuyi caught the thrown rope with her right hand and burst into a triumphant laugh.

Zhou Xunian quickly leaped to catch Mu Xianxian. By the time she fell into his arms, she had already lost consciousness, suffering serious internal injuries and was on the brink of death.

"Zheng Chuyi! You are despicable!" Zhou Xunian’s face was filled with irrepressible fury.

Zheng Chuyi snorted coldly, "Tonight, all of you will join Mubai in death!"

"I’ll start with this little bastard! Die!" As soon as she finished speaking, Zheng Chuyi aimed her dagger at Mo Qingyi’s chest.

"Really?" Mo Qingyi suddenly looked up at her with a shallow smile, "Such big talk!"

As she spoke, she violently raised her hand, swinging the rope. In almost an instant, Zheng Chuyi was entangled by the long rope, struggling and utterly incredulous.

Before she could react, she was bound by Mo Qingyi.

Wasn’t this rope supposed to be the spiritualist’s nemesis? Why did it fail today?

Zheng Chuyi’s face was pale as her smile froze.

Relieved, everyone let out a breath.

And Duanmu Zhe exhaled deeply.

Mo Qingyi had always been one to return an eye for an eye; now holding a whip, she fiercely lashed at Zheng Chuyi, "Laugh, why can’t you laugh now? Weren’t you so pleased with yourself just a moment ago?"
