nChapter 317: You’re Too Ruthless

nThe people from the four great families were still puzzled by Little Lei’s words. Before they could figure out what was going on, a new change happened. The ground trembled more and more violently, and the incomparably firm stone houses in the surroundings actually collapsed.

nFacing danger, people’s hearts were filled with panic. Especially when confronted with the unknown, they would be even more afraid and nervous.

n

n

n“What on earth happened?”

n“The stone houses collapsed. What’s going on?”

n“Heavens! The ground is cracking too.”

nThe people of the four great families were all in a mess. They gathered in twos and threes to deal with the crisis that was about to happen together.

n

n

n“Everyone, don’t panic. Stay calm.” Out of goodwill, Xue Hanxi comforted the crowd and calmed them down.

nYi Fentian, Bai Han, and Lian Fangcheng also took charge and made their subordinates prepare to deal with the crisis.

nSu Baifeng had been trapped in the stone house for a few days and had understood the strangeness of this place from Lian Fangcheng. Although she did not know what would happen next, she was always afraid and could not help but approach Ye Jiushang.

nHer intuition told her that she would only be safe by his side. Only then would she be able to survive.

n

n

n“Xin’er, prepare for battle.” Ye Jiushang did not have the time to care about Su Baifeng. When the change first occurred, he had started to pay attention to any activity in the surroundings. He had already sensed that there was something approaching them.

nHe was not unfamiliar with the invaders, but…

nJust as Ye Jiushang’s words fell, dozens of huge Electric Water Eels flew out of the lake. Every one of them was bigger than the one Little Lei had caught back then.

nApart from the huge Electric Water Eels, there was a strange plant. Its vines extended out of the water and covered the entire ground, like long green snakes. They were filled with water thorns, looking very terrifying.

nNot only that but there were also Evil Bone Spectral Soldiers climbing out of the cracks in the ground. This was even more terrifying…

n“Young Master, it’s… it’s those moving human bones. They crawled out of the ground.”

n

n

n“No, no, ah…” Someone was dragged down by the Evil Bone Spectral Soldiers because he could not dodge in time. He lost his life right away, letting out a tragic cry that made people tremble.

nThen, another person was entangled by the vines and got dragged into the lake.

n“Ah…”

nIn just two blinks of an eye, two people had died, startling the others. Even people of status like Yi Fentian, Bai Han, and Xue Hanxi were so frightened that their bodies trembled.

n“Your Highness, I…” Su Baifeng was scared out of her wits. She had long ignored her entourage and ran towards Ye Jiushang. Unexpectedly, a vine actually attacked her halfway. In a moment of desperation, she casually grabbed a person and threw him out to block the vine.

n“Ah… save me, save me! Young Master, quickly save me, save me…” The person was entangled by the vines and screamed miserably, constantly crying for help, but his efforts were futile. He was still dragged into the lake and died.

nThe person Su Baifeng had thrown out was Lian Fangcheng’s subordinate.

nLian Fangcheng saw all of this and watched helplessly as his confidant was dragged into the water. He wanted to save him, but he did not have the ability to. In the end, he glared at Su Baifeng and roared angrily, “Su Baifeng, you’re too ruthless.”

n

n

nHe had risked his life to save Su Baifeng, but this was how she repaid him?

nIt was not only Lian Fangcheng who had complaints about Su Baifeng, but the others were also the same. Especially the Lian family, they were so angry that their eyes were red, wishing they could tear Su Baifeng apart.

nThey had not expected the so-called number one beauty to be so ruthless. What gentleness, beauty, generosity, and understanding? It was all a front.
