Chapter 325: His Highness’ Thoughts
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
Helian Wei Wei naturally knew what Yun Biluo had in mind.
She wanted Baili Jia Jue to stand up for her.
Helian Wei Wei smiled gently. She had decided that she would retaliate against anyone who would vouch for these people, even Baili Jia Jue.
Helian Wei Wei held her head up after some contemplation but was greeted by Baili Jia Jue’s emotionless gaze.
Her heart tightened up a little bit but she continued smiling.
One should never flinch, especially in times like this.
Helian Wei Wei did a good deed when she was very young. She accidentally found a phone, so she went to return it. However, she was mislabelled as a thief and locked up in the station in Chinese Street.
She was discharged afterward but the mistress her father married would not let go of this incident.
She would bring this up from time to time to insult her, accusing her of stealing things.
At that time, Helian Wei Wei endured all of it.
She would never forget how it felt like. She was terrified, and her heart was empty.
Yet she was punished, despite being the one being hurt.
Her existence was so insignificant that she had no right to speak up.
All this while, she had been working very hard simply to finally be able to oppose these corrupt powers.
The Third Prince? I dare him to speak up for Yun Biluo!
She fought him despite knowing that he had the Fire Qilin to back him up. He was her cla.s.smate too, but none of those would matter in this battle!
No one could push her around anymore!
Helian Wei Wei noticed Baili Jia Jue began striding toward her, hence she gripped her fingers and smiled slightly, martial Qi permeating from all of her body. However, the sharpness gradually blunted when she noticed a wound on his shoulder.
Baili Jia Jue seemed angry as his eyes were colder than ever.
He might have lost his mind because his lover was wronged.
Helian Wei Wei looked down and laughed, but her expression was completely peaceful and her state of mind was very clear.
She pondered for a moment and decided that it would be unwise to fight him.
The possibility of her winning was too slim because he still possessed the Wings of the Grim Reaper she gifted him.
She had done so much to perfect it. The Wings of the Grim Reaper was almost flawless, containing the most powerful destructive force.
Had she known she would be fighting him one day, she would have gifted Yuan Ming to him instead… and turned him gay.
Helian Wei Wei felt that she had wasted her martial practice.
However, truth be told, Baili Jia Jue had always treated her differently.
Everyone looked down at her when she first enrolled herself at the academy.
He was the only one who ever acknowledged her martial practices.
He seemed a lot like Young Master Tang in the past.
Helian Wei Wei had always been grateful even though she never mentioned it.
Also, considering the fact that he rescued her countless times…
I should just rescind the contract.
Helian Wei Wei made up her mind and then whispered in a quiet voice only they could hear, “I told you in the past that I can yield if somebody comes back. We promised each other to advance and retreat together, but I guess that is not possible anymore. Why don’t we separate on good terms?”
Baili Jia Jue abruptly stopped his footsteps and sneered, “Separate on good terms?”
“Yes,” Helian Wei Wei mumbled in reply.
A loud noise suddenly resonated from the ground!
Helian Wei Wei thought that something would emerge from it.
However, she then realized the loud noise was reverberating from the man standing before her.
Numerous streaks of fissures spread out rapidly as the ground cracked beneath him, creating crevices with unseen depths.
Yet he merely stood there with a faint smile, one hand tucked in the pocket of his outerwear and the other laying beside him. He wore a little grin on his face, but his eyes were not visible, completely concealed under the layers of his dark, black hair.
The smile was casual and graceful, matching perfectly with his usual air of indifference.
However, his fingers were hidden in a pair of black gloves, their arching joints paling in color.
The black fog surrounding him thickened all of a sudden.
Crack!
Another loud noise blared.
Millions of bats soared into the sky from the depths of the thick woods. The scene seemed like a harbinger of an encroaching zombie apocalypse, it was simply terrifying.
Helian Wei Wei felt the wind howling in her ears as the surrounding trees began swinging crazily and the earth tremored in response.
Seemingly unperturbed, Baili Jia Jue merely budged a little. However, the intense coldness radiating from him made it impossible for anyone to approach him.
Barely anyone or anything on this earth could stir his emotions.
Yet today, she ignited his wrath!
He had always tolerated her. He had never been so patient to any of his prey, despite having raised countless of them.
However, all she could think about was to leave!
In the past, he would have undoubtedly discarded such prey.
However… d.a.m.n it! He had become softhearted!
How ridiculous…
No, I am not! How am I softhearted? Baili Jia Jue frowned.
But why does my chest feel empty? An invisible hole seemed to have burrowed into it.
He had stopped hunting for too long that he even forgot the rules.
A predator should never be manipulated by his prey.
“Haha…” Baili Jia Jue chuckled as demonic red glares shot from his eyes.
The breeze bristled silently.
He stood upright in the same spot gracefully and held his head up high. He slightly gestured with his fingers that were covered in black gloves.
Hurricane roared and torrential rains deluged the earth instantly!
His entire body became gradually drenched…
When Yun Biluo saw it, she quickly grabbed the umbrella from her servant, wanting to go near him.
However, she was nailed to the ground in pure fear by Baili Jia Jue’s cold unmoving stare before she could even approach him.
That stare was identical to the one he wore when he unleashed murderous bloodshed in the palace.
Yun Biluo’s heart palpitated rapidly as she forcefully bit her lip, seemingly to have come to a decision. Then, she called lovingly, “Your Highness.”
n.o.body could hear Yun Biluo except Helian Wei Wei, as the sounds of blowing wind and pouring rain drowned her soft voice.
Yun Biluo looked at the ground and spoke quietly, “I know that you are still blaming me for that incident. Miss Wei Wei…”
However, she could not finish her sentence as she saw the expression on Helian Wei Wei’s face, warning her to stop.
Helian Wei Wei remained calm. She merely wanted everything to be resolved soon as her stomach was in pain. Thus, she simply had no care for Yun Biluo’s usual gimmick. No matter what Yun Biluo said, she would let Baili Jia Jue take care of it.
Yun Biluo was surprised that Helian Wei Wei appeared perfectly poised. However, it mattered not. All she wanted to do was to clarify that incident and ask for forgiveness from His Highness.
With that thought in mind, Yun Biluo moved a step forward again.
However, before she could even begin…
She was hammered to the ground by his single piercing word.
“Scram,” Baili Jia Jue uttered.
Who is he talking to? Is it Helian Wei Wei?
a.s.suming that, Yun Biluo beamed. Just as she thought, he would always treat her differently from the others…
