Chapter 170 - Bai Aoxue, An Unmatched Lady
The first half of Liu Wan’s life was miserable. Nobody would imagine how tough it was for a five years child to continue to live on after she learned about the truth.
Liu Wan did it. She kept on living to now carrying the desire of revenge for her parents.
This endurance and perseverance were unmatchable in this world. Bai Aoxue couldn’t help adoring Liu Wan. If she were Liu Wan, she couldn’t imagine her mood after she learned the fact that the person who raised her up turned out to be the murderer who killed her parents.
Maybe she would have a nervous breakdown. But Liu Wan grew up so quickly facing such kind of cruel truth.
Apparently the Fifth Elder didn’t expect Liu Wan to know the details and he was very surprised. He also knew that his life was in the hands of Liu Wan.
“Liu Wan, it was Liu Chunjiang and other Elders who committed the murder. I didn’t involve in it. You should take revenge on them, not me.” The Fifth Elder cried with anxiety.
Liu Wan laughed coldly, “You surely didn’t involve. But you stirred up trouble everywhere! When my father was in trouble, you were the first one that betrayed. Now you let me spare your life, no way!”
The Fifth Elder’s facial expression changed in an instant, and he said anxiously, “Please don’t kill me, Liu Wan. As long as you spare me, I will make up with you.”
“Make up? How do you make up? Bring Liu Wan’s parents back to life? Or bestow her wealth?” It’s a cold female voice with majestic dignity.
The Fifth Elder looked at the lady in red by the side of Liu Wan, and he knew that this lady was the boss right now. He knew exactly that he would be definitely dead if he pissed her off.
“We can talk about it later that you definitely cannot finish the first thing, you even cannot do the second one. So you have nothing to exchange for your life.” Bai Aoxue looked at the Fifth Elder and said with disdain.
The Fifth Elder knew that he was just like an ant that could be smashed by Bai Aoxue in any minute. He didn’t want to give up but he had nothing to do.
“I can! I can stay around Liu Chunjiang and work undercover to help Liu Wan to take revenge.” The Fifth Elder said angrily, this was his last hope, so he has to try.
Light flashed through Bai Aoxue’s eyes, and she knew she had achieved her aim.
“If you really can do this, it is not impossible to spare you this time.” Bai Aoxue pretended to ponder over it.
The Fifth Elder knew that there was hope to be spared when he saw Bai Aoxue was thinking over his words and he hastily continued, “The Falling Flower Festival will be held in ten days. There will be a banquet in Liujiabao. It is an excellent opportunity to assassinate Liu Chunjiang.”
Bai Aoxue was confused, “Falling Flower Festival?”
“Falling Flower Festival is held every year. Girls who were unmarried will show their talent for the access to Liujiabao.” Jun Yeyan explained to Bai Aoxue while looking at her.
Bai Aoxue said indifferently, “Isn’t that a local despot?”
Jun Yeyan felt it was funny but still nodded to agree.
Everybody knew what would the winner of the show do in Liujiabao.
Liujiabao was the hegemony in Yangzhou. Liu Chunjiang played a decisive role in Yangzhou. Every girl was like a sparrow which wanted to turn into a phoenix.
“You are wrong, Fifth Elder. The public don’t know Liu Chunjiang’s malicious conduct. If we assassinate him rashly, we will turn the heroes in the world into our enemy.” Bai Aoxue said to the Fifth Elder casually.
The Fifth Elder was guilty and turned away his head cowardly without saying a word.
Bai Aoxue stamped hardly on the Fifth Elder’s chest with her long leg. The Fifth Elder didn’t expect this and threw up a mouthful of blood.
“Ouch!”
The Fifth Elder lay on the ground miserably with the front of the garment wetted with blood.
“Don’t try to play with me. You despicable old bastard! I can execute you. Things can be handled easily without you.” Bai Aoxue glared at the Fifth Elder with brutal eyesight and said coldly to him.
She stamped on the Fifth Elder’s chest hardly after finishing her words.
The face of the Fifth Elder turned gray in an instant and his eyes opened widely.
He almost forgot that the lady in front of him was a person one thousand times cunning than him. Besides, he was poisoned by this lady. He was now experiencing the pain caused by the poison.
Bai Aoxue now was extremely brilliant just like the morning star shining in the sky.
All the people present, including Jun Yeyan, didn’t know that Bai Aoxue just showed her real side. This was the real Bai Aoxue who ever struggled in the very harsh world.
It’s the indifference of despising life and the pride of conquering the world in her eyes. Her voice was melodious and bewitching like a song from the hell, which made the Fifth Elder fear.
The Fifth Elder was now clear that he was doomed to die if he kept on fighting with Bai Aoxue. He could not defeat her.
Bai Aoxue could see through any trick.
“Please spare me… The evidence that Liu Chunjiang colluded with other elders was in his Sword Pavilion. He didn’t destroy it and kept it till today. If we can get the evidence, we can make the elders give testimony against Liu Chunjiang! Then Liu Chunjiang cannot deny it.” The Fifth Elder said anxiously.
Liu Wan was very excited when she heard the Fifth Elder’s words.
Bai Aoxue now believed the Fifth Elder’s words, and she was satisfied, “You made the right decision. Nobody would want to die if he could live such a wonderful life.”
The Fifth Elder nodded fiercely that his head was almost shaken off when he heard Bai Aoxue’s words.
“Take this pill.” Bai Aoxue flicked a pill into the Fifth Elder’s palm with her slim finger.
The Fifth Elder swallowed down the pill and after a long while he found the pain was relieved all of a sudden.
The Fifth Elder laughed and felt life was beautiful.
“Don’t feel lucky so early. The pill could only restrain the effect of the poison. I am not sure that you wouldn’t be a rat and leak information to Liu Chunjiang. So I will keep the antidote until ten days later when Liu Wan would have taken revenge on Liu Chunjiang.” Bai Aoxue narrowed her eyes and said to the Fifth Elder with a light smile on her face.
The smile on the Fifth Elder’s face disappeared. “Don’t worry. I would not do that! You can keep the antidote if that can ease you.” He replied.
“Don’t even try to find antidote by yourself. I am confident that in this world no one can make antidote to my poison. If you don’t believe my words, you can try. But you will still end up with death if you use the wrong medicine.”
Bai Aoxue pretended to be kind to remind the Fifth Elder and she was satisfied to see that his face turned pale.
The last hope in the Fifth Elder’s heart disappeared. He was not sure whether Bai Aoxue was exaggerating the result on purpose. If she told the truth, and he used the wrong medicine, nothing could be taken back. But he didn’t want to die.
“Don’t worry! I have promised you. I wouldn’t do things which are useless.” The Fifth Elder replied in a deep voice. It was full of hatred in his mind.
“Carry the fat idiot back with Liu Wan. What happened today is that you encountered a gang who defeated Liu Wan and hurt Liu Yuanyi accidentally. And you saved them in time and got rid of the gang.” Bai Aoxue narrated the story she had coined in her mind.
The Fifth Elder was knocked out with admiration of Bai Aoxue’s cunning. In his life time, he had never been set up and threatened by such a young lady. If this was known by others, he surely would be laughed at.
Bai Aoxue didn’t care about what was in the Fifth Elder’s mind. She told Liu Wan, “Go back to Liujiabao with the Fifth Elder. I believe the Fifth Elder will handle this issue perfectly. We will go to Yangzhou and you will pretend not to know us. I will inform you stealthily if there is any action for you to take out.”
Liu Wan nodded. She was confused why Bai Aoxue would like to help her, but she didn’t ask.
“Jun Yeyan…” Bai Aoxue looked at Jun Yeyan and then the servants on the ground.
Jun Yeyan said, “Don’t worry. They just went into a coma. They will wake up by several slaps.”
Bai Aoxue nodded and said to Liu Wan, “Then we will go. I will get in touch with you when I arrive at Yangzhou.”
The Fifth Elder relieved a breath when he learned that Bai Aoxue was leaving.
Bai Aoxue and Jun Yeyan held hands and turned around. The lady who was defeated by Liu Wan shouted out suddenly, “My savior!”
Bai Aoxue turned around to see the lady, with her eyebrows lifted up a bit.
“My savior! Could you take me with you?” The lady looked at Bai Aoxue with expectation.
Bai Aoxue looked at the lady and several men following her closely, and frowned, “We just meet by chance. I believe we will meet again in the future if it is predetermined by fate. See you.”
Then Bai Aoxue turned around elegantly and walked to White. She mounted lightly.
“Go!” Bai Aoxue’s clear voice echoed.
“My savior! My name is Qi Muyuan. We will meet again!” Qi Muyuan shouted and run towards to the figure of Bai Aoxue who had left in distance.
Bai Aoxue rode on her horse and didn’t turn back. There were only clops. Her black hair flied in the air. She came and went just like wind.
At this time, Liu Wan and others realized that they didn’t know Bai Aoxue’s name. They thought Bai Aoxue and the man by her side had a majestic momentum of despising the whole world. They didn’t know who they were and where they came from. All of the unknown information made them fear.
The couple appeared all of a sudden, shocked and terrified people, and disappeared in an instant.
Liu Wan stared at the back view of Bai Aoxue without a blink. She had a feeling of mixed emotions.
Bai Aoxue’s red dress flied in the wind. Her pride made her an unmatched lady in this world.
