Oriental Aoyue's tone was indifferent, as if she was speaking of something insignificant.
But this one sentence could decide Eastern Qingwu's life!
"If you dare to touch me, aren't you afraid that my Clan branch will fight to the death?"
Eastern Qingwu's lips were bitten pale, as she stared intently at Oriental Aoyue.
She was not Eastern Hao, whose bone was dug out.
Eastern Hao was a male, and his status in the Eastern Imperial Clan was not high to begin with.
Coupled with the fact that his birth mother was just an ordinary Elder, without much power, Oriental Aoyue could naturally dispose of him as she pleased.
But she, Eastern Qingwu, was still the Second Young Miss of the Eastern Imperial Clan.
Behind her was a powerful Clan branch whose influence in the entire Eastern Imperial Clan could not be ignored.
This was also why Oriental Aoyue had not dealt with her before.
Although she failed the challenge this time.
She was still gambling that Oriental Aoyue would not dare to attack her.
"Oh, you mean, this Young Miss wouldn't dare?"
Oriental Aoyue tilted her head slightly, and in her beautiful, black-gem-like eyes, there seemed to be a chilling ruthlessness.
Her internal Qi surged, accompanied by killing intent, sweeping out!
Pfft!
Eastern Qingwu was directly pressured to her knees by this Aura!
"If you kill me, the Clan branch behind me will not let it go, and then the entire Eastern Imperial Clan will fall into chaos."
"You just became the Young Clan Leader, and you don't want the Clan to immediately fall into chaos, do you?"
Eastern Qingwu knelt on the ground, humiliated, but at this moment, she still wanted to live.
It must be said that she did have some cunning and shrewdness; even at this moment, she could articulate the pros and cons.
Oriental Aoyue said nothing.
And just then, a faint voice suddenly came.
"Miss Qingwu, I think it's better for you to submit, after all, Miss Aoyue, she won't be threatened by you."
Hearing this voice, Eastern Qingwu's expression froze.
Jun Xiaoyao walked in casually, his expression calm, looking at Eastern Qingwu.
"Oh, it's Young Lord Jun Xiaoyao, what exactly is going on here?"
Beside Oriental Aoyue, Eastern Xinqing's small face showed surprise and astonishment.
She had been worried before that Eastern Qingwu, by winning over Jun Xiaoyao, would cause adverse effects for Oriental Aoyue.
As a result, what was this now?
Eastern Xinqing's mind was a bit confused.
Compared to the shrewdness of Oriental Aoyue and Eastern Qingwu, Eastern Xinqing could be said to be a naive and sweet girl.
"It really is you, Young Lord Jun Xiaoyao, why did you deceive me?!"
Eastern Qingwu's gaze fixed on Jun Xiaoyao.
In her eyes, there was anger from betrayal, and also grievance.
She was the Second Young Miss of the Eastern Imperial Clan, and had never tried to please any man.
Yet, for Jun Xiaoyao, she was willing to humble herself and try to win him over.
She even went so far as to flaunt her figure.
Although Jun Xiaoyao didn't fall for that, she could indeed say that she cared a lot about Jun Xiaoyao.
She had even seriously considered him to be the most perfect match.
She wanted to be with him.
And now, Jun Xiaoyao had betrayed her.
"Miss Qingwu, from the very beginning, it was you who took the initiative, I never said I would be responsible."
Jun Xiaoyao smiled faintly, and then said.
"Moreover, I have long known Miss Aoyue."
Hearing these words, Eastern Qingwu's expression was filled with a hint of desolation.
It was Oriental Aoyue again!
"Why, what about me is not as good as her?"
Eastern Qingwu's red lips were bitten until faint traces of blood appeared.
"No reason, maybe just because you are not her."
Jun Xiaoyao didn't explain much.
Nor was it possible for him to reveal now what Oriental Aoyue meant to him.
"Heh, Oriental Aoyue, indeed, it's always been like this since childhood, everything of mine will be taken by you!"
"Now, even the man I fancy has been taken by you!"
Eastern Qingwu, unable to control her emotions, roared at Oriental Aoyue.
"Haven't you always wanted to kill me? Come on, let this Clan branch of mine fight to the death!"
Jun Xiaoyao's betrayal completely broke Eastern Qingwu's mental defenses.
She had truly given up.
Oriental Aoyue's beautiful eyes were calm.
Even with Eastern Qingwu's loss of composure, she showed no ripple of emotion.
"Sister Aoyue, Second Sister she..." Eastern Xinqing hesitated.
To be honest, although she somewhat disliked Eastern Qingwu's cunning and jealousy.
But no matter what, she was still her Second Sister.
At this moment, Jun Xiaoyao continued: "Miss Qingwu, still the same words, I advise you to yield."
"After all, the Clan branch behind you has Cultivated the Cultivation Technique I bestowed, which means that the lives of most of them are also in my hands."
Jun Xiaoyao simply explained.
Eastern Qingwu, upon hearing this, showed a desolate smile.
She lost.
Lost completely.
Her last resort was the Clan branch behind her.
Not to mention truly fighting to the death with Oriental Aoyue, at least it could cause some negative impact.
But now, this last trump card also ceased to exist.
Under the schemes of Jun Xiaoyao and Oriental Aoyue, Eastern Qingwu lost thoroughly and clearly.
She didn't even have a chance to resist.
However, this was also very normal.
Oriental Aoyue was inherently a woman with strong methods.
Coupled with Jun Xiaoyao's tactics.
No matter how deep Eastern Qingwu's cunning, she was bound to lose.
Oriental Aoyue rose from the throne and walked step by step towards Eastern Qingwu.
Her high heels clicked with crisp footsteps, like the footsteps of death!
"Sister Aoyue..."
Eastern Xinqing also clenched her fists.
Although she didn't want to see Oriental Aoyue attack Eastern Qingwu.
But if she really did, Eastern Xinqing couldn't stop her.
Oriental Aoyue stopped in front of Eastern Qingwu.
At this moment, Eastern Qingwu was still kneeling.
Oriental Aoyue extended her slender jade hand and slowly gripped Eastern Qingwu's neck.
Eastern Qingwu didn't even have the ability to resist; she was completely suppressed by Oriental Aoyue's Aura at this moment.
Only now did she realize that in the challenge at the coronation ceremony, Oriental Aoyue had still hidden her true strength and Cultivation, not revealing her full power.
"If you want to kill me, then kill me! This time, I will not beg you for mercy again!"
Eastern Qingwu looked coldly at Oriental Aoyue.
Oriental Aoyue merely gripped Eastern Qingwu's jade neck, her tone utterly indifferent.
"You said that from childhood, I took everything from you."
"But now, I can tell you, this Young Miss disdains everything you have!"
"And what this Young Miss truly wants, no one can give me!"
Oriental Aoyue directly lifted Eastern Qingwu by her neck with one hand.
Eastern Qingwu, meanwhile, was like a chicken with its neck squeezed, her face flushed.
Jun Xiaoyao saw this, fell silent for a moment, and then said: "How about, spare her life?"
Oriental Aoyue glanced at Jun Xiaoyao.
"You can't bear to?"
For some reason, to an outsider, this originally indifferent remark.
Felt as if there was a hint of sourness in it, though very faint.
