Chapter 597: Playing Tricks, Will Only Lead to Your Own Destruction
The black ball of sinister energy that rose from Qin Ruan's hands was following Xiao Guang, and it was Xiao Qiao.
Before leaving the Hou family, she wanted to deal with this trouble.
The reason she came to the flower room was that she was worried that the Third Young Master health would be affected by the sinister energy.
Even if there was a slight possibility, she would not allow it.
The black ball slowly ascended into the void and quickly transformed into a fierce ghost.
Xiao Qiao's eyes surged with crimson, her face twisted with ferocity and ugliness, and sinister energy filled the flower room.
The precious plants closest to her were trembling slightly, both their flowers and leaves.
Qin Ruan's gaze swept over the trembling plants affected by the sinister energy, and her red lips pursed displeased.
She looked at Xiao Qiao with a domineering gaze and said coldly, "I advise you to restrain yourself. If One of the plants in the flower room died because of you. I will make sure you and Xiao Guang will never be able to reincarnate!"
This flower room belonged to the Third Young Master.
She had heard from Hou Chuan that each plant here was collected by the Third Lord from all over the country.
If one plant died, it would be counted as Xiao Qiao's responsibility.
Xiao Qiao's voice was full of bitterness as she said with hatred, "Xiao Guang is dead, his soul scattered! What's the point of saying this now? You are also a woman, pregnant with a child, why are you so heartless!"
"Is it me who's heartless, or is it you and Xiao Guang who are cruel and ruthless?" Qin Ruan's dark eyes were like sharp blades as they pierced Xiao Qiao, "How many innocent lives did Xiao Guang harm for your sake? How many people did you have a hand in killing!"
Xiao Qiao's eyes burst with fierce red light, "Those people deserve to die!"
Qin Ruan's expression instantly became serious, "No one deserves to die. Everyone has their own destiny, and in this life, everyone has to pay the price for their actions!"
Even for wicked people, they have their own destiny, and it's not up to you to judge. You are just finding excuses for your killings!"
"No! That's not true!" Xiao Qiao shouted back.
Her black hair rose without any wind, drifting in the air, exuding a strong sinister energy.
Xiao Qiao pointed at Qin Ruan and yelled, "You are the murderer! You killed Xiao Guang!"
Qin Ruan rested her hand on the table and leaned back in her chair.
Her gaze slanted at Xiao Qiao, a smile that was not quite a smile on her lips, "I didn't have to make a move against a little ghost like him. I just refined him a bit, his three souls and seven spirits have not dispersed yet."
"You're lying! I saw him with my own eyes, he disappeared in an instant!" Xiao Qiao's voice was full of grief, and hatred filled her eyes.
She firmly believed that Qin Ruan was lying to her.
She wanted to take action against Qin Ruan, but knew she was no match for her. She could only stand there, her emotions uncontrollable, roaring in anger.
Qin Ruan stretched her hand towards Xiao Qiao, and in her other hand, there was another black mist.
Unlike Xiao Qiao's, it couldn't form a complete ball; it was just a faint and thin fog.
Even so, it was enough for Xiao Qiao to sense that it was Xiao Guang.
Knowing that Xiao Guang was still there, Xiao Qiao rushed towards Qin Ruan as if she had gone mad, "Give him back to me!"
Qin Ruan's voice was light and slow, with a hint of pleasure, "Don't come any closer, or I'll crush him. Then he will truly disappear into nothingness."
Xiao Qiao, who was about to float in front of her, immediately stopped at her words.
She didn't dare to take another step forward, for fear that Xiao Guang would completely vanish because of her.
Qin Ruan held the life force of Xiao Guang in her hand and stretched it out towards Xiao Qiao.
With her finger movements, the black mist in her palm also changed its shape accordingly.
Qin Ruan's eyes narrowed as she looked at the black mist, a chilling coldness in her deep and dark eyes, as if she could swallow all things.
She casually asked Xiao Qiao, "I'll give you a chance to confess. How did Xiao Guang target me?"
Xiao Guang and Xiao Qiao were clearly distinguished from each other, and Xiao Guang was the mastermind behind everything.
Everything was premeditated.
Xiao Guang was the key.
Xiao Qiao's face flashed with astonishment, and she denied, "No, Xiao Guang didn't do anything."
Qin Ruan tightened her five fingers, and the black mist in her palm also shrank.
"No!" Xiao Qiao shouted to stop her, her voice trembling.
Qin Ruan raised her head, her face frighteningly gloomy, and she stared at the murderous intent in Xiao Qiao's eyes.
"If I were you, I would honestly confess everything and have a chance at survival. Trying to be clever will only make you and Xiao Guang die even faster!"
Under the tremendous pressure released from Qin Ruan, Xiao Qiao's soul trembled.
She also knew that this was the time to be honest.
But if she really said it, it would make her and Xiao Guang have no place to be buried.
Tears of blood flowed down Xiao Qiao's face, and she choked, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you!"
She slowly began to speak, and she told Qin Ruan everything that had happened in the past half year.
Xiao Qiao did indeed come out of the Zhenpin Pavilion, and her name was Shao Qiao.
Before entering the Zhenpin Pavilion, her family was wealthy, and they were considered a small wealthy family.
Unfortunately, because they offended the Nangong family, they fell overnight.
All the young generation of the Shao family was sent to the Zhenpin Pavilion, while the elders were missing.
Shao Qiao stayed in the Zhenpin Pavilion for five years.
At first, she resisted, but she succumbed to the torture of the Zhenpin Pavilion's methods.
In these five years, she witnessed the darkness of the Zhenpin Pavilion.
Anyone locked inside was not treated as a human being.
They were mere commodities, even less valuable than the precious carpets on the floor of the Zhenpin Pavilion.
Anyone could command them as they pleased.
In these five years, Shao Qiao had long lost her innocence.
The unimaginable experiences she had, made her lose the desire to live.
One morning, she woke up in a familiar room and saw a strange face lying beside her. A sudden thought came to her mind.
Perhaps it was the inhuman torture she endured or the repulsive white hair and wrinkles on the stranger's face.
Shao Qiao pushed open the window of the room.
Ignoring the wounds all over her body and wearing only the thin and cold pajamas that were standard in the Zhenpin Pavilion, she jumped out of the window.
If she died, everything would end.
Unfortunately, she didn't die; she was caught by the balcony on the second floor.
Shao Qiao chose the wrong path. She didn't know that someone was working hard to save her from the sea of fire when she was desperate.
At that moment, Xiao Guang appeared.
When Shao Qiao was covered in injuries and half disabled, he appeared before her.
Seeing him, Shao Qiao realized that as long as she waited one more day, just one more day, she could leave the Zhenpin Pavilion in the open.
But fate played a big joke on her.
She met Xiao Guang when she was in such a miserable state.
Shao Qiao had imagined many times that if she hadn't chosen the desperate path that day, would she be able to live happily with Xiao Guang now.
However, there were no ifs in this world.
Xiao Guang was Shao Qiao's childhood playmate, and his family was also wealthy.
During Xiao Guang's primary school period, his parents had a failed investment, and the family moved away from the capital.
After so many years, he accidentally joined the Yin Yang Sect and became a metaphysician.
