Chapter 537: 276: The Death of Ashi Luo! (Part 2) (Important Subscription Required)_2

"You killed Yan Ping? You killed his entire family? Is that true?" Ashi Liren said.

"Yes, I killed them," Ashi Luo said. "I swore at that time that anyone who dared to touch a single finger of yours would have their entire family killed by me. Of course, to kill his entire family without arousing your suspicion, I had to kill more than seven thousand people. This kind of darkness, it truly makes one sink."

Ashi Liren convulsed in pain and struggled to close her eyes.

The death of her husband was a piercing pain that never eased, every mention of it.

After several long minutes, Ashi Liren opened her beautiful eyes, her gaze even more gentle, "Death is irreversible, Luo...you should go, disappear forever."

Ashi Luo looked toward Suo Lun and said, "Mr. Yan, why can Suo Lun make his sister fall for him body and soul, while I can’t?"

He was actually asking Ashi Liren this question.

Suo Lun shrugged his shoulders, not knowing how to respond.

Ashi Liren stood up, her delicate body taking hold of the Dragon Gold Sword, and with an even gentler gaze toward Ashi Luo, she said, "Luo, just go, don’t come back."

Ashi Luo also got up and said, "Sister, I will certainly leave, and once I leave, I truly won’t return. Even if I did return, I would no longer be myself. But before I leave, I must fulfill the lifelong wish of my life."

Then, Ashi Luo aggressively moved toward Ashi Liren.

Ashi Liren drew half an inch of her sword and coldly said, "There should be a distinction between humans and beasts. If you become a beast, then you are not my brother, and I would have to kill someone."

"Kill away, kill away..." Ashi Luo laughed.

"Qiang..." Ashi Liren abruptly drew the Dragon Gold Sword, gathered her dragon power, and was about to disable Ashi Luo completely.

However...

Just as her dragon power began to circulate, a terrifyingly ice-cold energy backlash occurred, causing her vision to blacken and her legs to weaken, and she nearly collapsed to the ground.

"Sister, do you feel as if you’ve lost all your strength?" Ashi Luo laughed. "And your legs are starting to give way; a flame is rising within you. Congratulations, you’ve been poisoned!"

Ashi Liren’s face changed drastically, "No, it’s impossible!"

Then, she turned her gaze toward Suo Lun.

Ashi Luo also looked at Suo Lun and said, "Mr. Yan, it seems you didn’t listen properly and didn’t give my sister the Hell Devil Incense. Aren’t you afraid that I will expose what you did to my stepmother Taosu?"

Suo Lun said, "A true gentleman has things he will do and things he won’t."

Ashi Luo was silent for a moment, then said, "It seems you’re not Yan Ziyu, he’s not a gentleman like that. But it doesn’t matter, you’re as irrelevant to me as a pig or a dog."

Ashi Liren’s eyes grew hazy, an internal blaze of emotion welling up within her, becoming somewhat uncontrollable.

Subsequently, her perpetually cold body slowly grew hotter, her skin fair as snow began to flush with a hint of red.

She desperately tried to wield her dragon power, but found she couldn’t even stand.

"What’s going on?" Ashi Liren asked tremulously, "What on earth is happening? The poisoned candy that Fu Yan’er gave to Anan, she didn’t eat it, so why am I poisoned?"

"Damn it..." Ashi Luo said, "I sent two people to poison you, and they both failed?"

"What exactly is happening?" Ashi Liren trembled as she asked.

Ashi Luo clapped his hands.

Instantly, a female samurai walked in.

This was Ashi Liren’s closest female samurai, who had reached the Warrior Layer, and her name was Yuanye.

This female samurai had been with Ashi Liren for over ten years.

This was the person Ashi Liren trusted the most; they were her companions from Dongli Kingdom and had been practicing martial arts together since more than a decade ago.

"Yuanye?" Ashi Liren said incredulously, "Why? What could he possibly offer you to betray me?"

Ashi Luo shrugged and said, "You treat her well, like a sister. But unfortunately, you couldn’t fill the emptiness in her body and heart, whereas I could."

Ashi Luo said, "Actually, the reason I tried poisoning you through Fu Yan’er and then Yan Ziyu was simply a diversion, so as to not reveal Yuanye."

Ashi Liren’s gaze trembled; the betrayal of her closest person once more inflicted great pain upon her.

And Suo Lun truly hadn’t suspected Yuanye of betraying Ashi Liren.

But now looking back, there were indeed clues.

On the day when the fake samurai from Tianshui City came to kidnap Fu Yan’er and Qin Qin, the first one to go open the door was Yuanye, and she was the one who informed Fu Yan’er as well.

Yuanye first hung her head, unable to make eye contact with Ashi Liren. Then, she bravely lifted her face and said, "Miss Liren, you should give our master a chance. He is the best man in the world. You’re very lucky because you are the only woman he truly loves."

Ashi Liren looked at Yuanye with utter incredulity, "You, you love him?"

"Yes, I love him," Yuanye said. "For him, I would do anything."

"Including betraying me?" Ashi Liren said.

"Yes," Yuanye said.

Ashi Liren continued, "Including pushing Qin Qin, such an adorable little girl, into the fire pit, you must know she is Suo Lun’s daughter, and what would happen to her in Ashi Luo’s hands?"

Yuanye was silent for a moment, then said, "A bystander can’t understand the joy of fish swimming in water. The two dogs by our master’s side, they are very happy every day."
