"Young Miss Li! We all deserve to die!"Each of the maids fell to their knees before Xu Hui, as they pleaded with her to spare their lives.
Looking at the faces filled with fright, the BaoXu sect disciple"s face lifted in a smile of cruelty.
"Now, why do you think that you deserve to die? Did I say that I would kill you?"
"No! You didn"t! Your servants must have heard wrong!"
Looking at the maids of Li Jiao grovel at her feet made Xu Hui recall a shard of the memory from the body she inhabited.
Rarely had the young mistress of the YuanLi sect been anything but flawless grace, who treated those under he with a kind smile. Hatred burned in the heart of Xu Hui and consumed her mind every day, from the moment she slept and woke it was what she thought of every time.
That affected her dealings with those from the YuanLi sect, neither of the manservants and maids could voice the changes that had been taking place with their mistress.
In the presence of Li Guoliang, Xu Hui was Li Jiao all through, but the moment she was not with the YuanLi sect leader, she returned to her usual self. This was more noticeable by those that were tied to her courtyard than by the other disciples of the sect.
"Father would think I"m wicked or mistreating you if he walks in on this. Why don"t you all rise on your feet. I"m not going to kill any of you."
To make her words sound convincing, Xu Hui smiled warmly at them. Slowly they rose to their feet when they heard the voice of what they thought to be their loving mistress, for Xu Hui reverted to the way Li Jiao spoke to her maids.
"Thank you, Young Miss Li! We would be more mindful of our words!"Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
Each of them gave a deep bow of grat.i.tude when they saw that she wasn"t going to punish them, but rather spoke to them like the old times.
"I think it"s been a while since I tried it out."
Xu Hui spoke so softly that if one didn"t have a sharp ear they would have missed what she said, but some of them caught a portion of what she said and answered, "Young Miss Li, what is it you want to...."
No sooner had the words left the maid"s mouth, that was when she saw the ring leader that headed the gossip begin to cough up blood.
Yun Wanyi held her belly as blood spewed from her mouth, landing right in front of Xu Hui"s feet with some splas.h.i.+ng on those that were closest to her and on the robes of Xu Hui.
"Yi!!!!"
They saw her knees crumble as she fell on the floor. Panic gripped the hearts of the other maids, not knowing what to make of one of their own who was bringing up blood for some unknown reason. They rushed to help her up, while Xu Hui looked with face of serenity.
