Chapter 163: Traitors

That place was only a day's journey from the capital. If they intended to stage a rebellion, the capital would be in great peril.

The thought sent a chill down one's spine. The anger on Mo Yun's face deepened a bit more!

Mo Litian quickly led his troops to that small town. But when he got there, it was already deserted, and the number of people in the town had also decreased significantly!

Apparently, this small town had been firmly under the control of these people before, and most of the people were their informants.

Mo Litian soon found the entrance to the underground training ground, which was right beneath the flowerbed where Yinyin was killed!

If it hadn't been for A Nan's tip, he might never have guessed!

Night fell.

When Liu Rumei woke up, she felt weak all over. There were faint shadows flickering outside the door.

After a while, a maid walked in. Seeing that Liu Rumei had woken up, there was no expression on her face. Her eyes were extremely calm. She simply slung Liu Rumei over her shoulder and carried her away!

Liu Rumei's eyes darkened. Where were they taking her this time?

At this moment, the Lian family welcomed a group of uninvited guests.

The pungent smell of fresh blood filled the air. Lian Jingzhou listened to the commotion outside the door, his heart unusually calm.

After a while, the door of the study was finally opened. The courtyard was filled with shocking scarlet. Bodies were lying haphazardly, full of the fear of death.

Seeing Mo Liandi in black, Lian Jingzhou curled his lips into a smile. "What is the prince up to?"

Mo Liandi said coldly, "There are traitors in the Lian family. To ensure the safety of the emperor, I am entrusted by the crown prince to come here and eliminate the remaining evils!"

Lian Jingzhou couldn't help laughing out loud. "Remaining evils? If you want to frame someone, you can always find an excuse. The prince knows very well whether the traitor is me or you!"

Mo Liandi snorted. His patience had been completely worn out. "Where is Liu Liu?"

Lian Jingzhou curled his lips in mockery. "The always cold and ruthless Prince of Guoa is actually so concerned about a woman?"

Mo Liandi's eyes were full of malice. "I have limited patience! I don't want to hear your nonsense!"

Lian Jingzhou sneered. "The prince is so capable. Why do you have to ask me?"

Mo Liandi, you finally have your day!

Ye Zhe's eyes were full of cold light. He slightly raised his hand, and someone drove a group of people over.

Lian Jingzhou's pupils shrank instantly. The calm on his face had completely disappeared. "Mo Liandi!"

Hadn't he sent them away long ago? How could they fall into Mo Liandi's hands?

"Father! Save me!" He didn't want to die! He never expected that Mo Liandi would suddenly attack the Lian family! Why was this happening!

"Grandpa..."

"Ah... Master!"

"..."

Mo Liandi's eyes were full of coldness. "Where is she?"

Lian Jingzhou's eyes were full of anger. "Mo Liandi, if you dare to touch them even a little, that woman will definitely not see the sun tomorrow!"

Mo Liandi's expression was cold. Ye Zhe behind him understood his meaning and winked at one of the men.

In the blink of an eye, a man fell.

Lian Jingzhou looked at the fallen middle - aged man. His eyes were full of unwillingness and doubt. He felt a sudden dizziness in front of his eyes. "You..."

He really dared...

Mo Liandi's cold voice sounded again. "Where is she?"

He had ransacked the Lian family from top to bottom, but still couldn't find her.

Lian Jingzhou's old face turned red with anger. He was so angry that he wished he could die with Mo Liandi.

Seeing this, Ye Zhe's eyes turned colder. The men behind him raised their blood - stained blades and were about to strike at the young child!

"A Yu!"

"Master, please say something. A Yu is your own grandson!"

"Grandpa..."

"Please, master. Zhenxiong is already gone. I can't lose A Yu! Please!"

"..."

Lian Jingzhou also widened his eyes. That was his only grandson. If he died, the Lian family would really be extinct!

Just as the blood - stained blade was about to fall, Lian Jingzhou angrily shouted, "West of the city!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a man rushed over in a hurry. "My lord, we've found a clue!"

As soon as the words fell, Mo Liandi's figure quickly disappeared from sight.

Ye Zhe also breathed a sigh of relief. If they couldn't find Miss Liu any longer, the prince would probably go crazy!

Looking at Lian Jingzhou, who was slumped on the ground in a sorry state, Ye Zhe's eyes were full of coldness. The Lian family deserved what they got for having such wild ambitions.

He winked at the men behind him and chased after the direction where Mo Liandi had left.

There was a faint scream from behind, and then there was no more sound.

...

On the quiet path, the maid finally noticed something was wrong. She immediately stopped and smelled the faint smell of blood in the air. She put Liu Rumei down and looked at the blood constantly dripping from her fair arm. Her eyes were full of malice. "You're looking for death!"

Seeing that she had noticed, Liu Rumei couldn't help sighing slightly, but her expression remained calm.

The maid was full of anger, but she had to suppress it. She simply bandaged the wound on Liu Rumei's hand. "Be obedient, or I'll kill you right now!"

If it weren't for the fact that the master needed her alive, how could she have survived until now?

Liu Rumei didn't take her threat seriously. She curled her lips into a smile. "If your master really wanted to kill me, he wouldn't have let you take me away."

The maid couldn't help grinding her teeth. As expected of Liu Rumei, she could still be so calm in this situation. No wonder the Prince of Guoa was so infatuated with her.

"Miss Liu is really smart!"

However...

She reached out and pinched Liu Rumei's fair neck. Her eyes were full of malice. "The master did tell me to take you back, but he didn't say I had to bring you back intact! If you're still so ungrateful, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

As long as she left her with a breath of life, the master probably wouldn't say much.

The Lian family was gone. The master had suffered a great loss. She might as well vent her anger for the master!

Liu Rumei's heart tightened. She naturally knew that what the maid said was true, so she didn't say anything more to provoke her.

A wise man submits to circumstances. She understood this truth.

Seeing that she finally calmed down, the maid was about to pick her up and continue on their way.

Unexpectedly, she felt a chill on her back. She quickly hid behind Liu Rumei, holding a dagger across Liu Rumei's neck and said coldly, "Who's there!"

She looked around warily, her back tightly against the tree, using Liu Rumei as a shield. Seeing no one appear, she shouted again, "Come out! Otherwise, I'll kill..."

Before she could finish her words, the maid lost her breath.

Liu Rumei only felt the maid's hand loosen, and she fell into a warm embrace.

The familiar smell made her heart feel inexplicably sour, but at the same time, she felt extremely at ease. "Mo Liandi..."

"Liu Liu, I've made up my mind. I want both you and the throne!"
