Chapter 312

“If I’d known, I would have cut all ties with her back then. Father should have never taken over the Feng household to protect her. It’s all our fault. My sister is so ruthless, so what do I do now?” Tu Xiupei sobbed. She was utterly gut-wrenched and beating herself up. Guilt, regret, and remorse consumed her.

The level of Qi Shujie’s rage went through the roof as he clenched his fists. “Do not be afraid. You still have the Flying Frost Pavilion, and we have been beyond kind to her so far. Her death wouldn’t serve justice. You would be punishing her on behalf of the heavens and ridding the world of her evilness.”

Qi Shujie could hardly believe his eyes. Tu Xiupei had been a bubbly young lady just a few months ago. Now, she was spiraling toward insanity’s brink. Feng Tianlan, that hateful wretch! He would never let her off lightly!

“Senior Brother.” Tears filled Tu Xiupei’s eyes again as she tried to speak. “Oh, how I wish things were that simple. Not only was I violated, but I...”

“What else did they do to you?” Qi Shujie was ready to summon his men and unleash a massacre that would not only kill Feng Tianlan but everyone in her household. Then, he would burn her mansion to the ground. That would teach her to humiliate his beloved!

“They also drugged me with an Everhigh Elixir. Every fortnight, I have to...”

Tu Xiupei fell silent, and Qi Shujie became impatient. “What’s an Everhigh Elixir?”

After much hesitation, Tu bit her lips and came clean about the drug: “Every fortnight, I need to have sex with a male partner. Otherwise, my face will break into horrible boils, and I will die.”

She lied about her predicament. “Everhigh Elixir” was just a name she’d invented on the spot. She didn’t know what kind of poison Tu Xiuyu had actually given her. All she wanted was to ensure that this idiot took revenge on her behalf.

Besides, if she returned to the Flying Frost Pavilion, it would be much harder for her to neutralize the poison through lovemaking. That made Qi Shujie, this man who had been in love with her for a long time, the perfect candidate and her best bet. Not only could he help her get rid of the poison, but she could also manipulate him into killing Feng Tianlan without staining her hands red. Besides, he had the entire Flying Frost Pavilion behind him. It made no sense to not take advantage of him.

“What?” Hearing this, Qi Shujie could not suppress his rage anymore. He punched the concrete wall with so much force that it dented and resembled a crater on a moon. “Feng Tianlan, I want you dead!”

Tu Xiupei wiped the sly smile from her face and turned back into an innocent, distressed damsel. “Senior brother, look at me. I cannot stand alone in this world filled with evil. All I ask before I end my life is for you to rescue my parents and ensure their safety. As for my sister, since we were in the wrong from the start, can we just forget about her?”

Tu Xiupei’s speech resembled the last words of the dying, which only deepened Qi Shujie’s hatred for Feng Tianlan. At the same time, he was afraid to lose Tu Xiupei. He pulled her by the arm and tried to persuade her with the utmost seriousness.

“Feng Tianlan should be the one to die, not you. What she did will not be tolerated. Forget any ounce of kinship you once shared. Killing her will not only be sweet vengeance for us both, but we will also be ridding the universe of great evil.”

“But she has Si Mobai, the King of Wargods, and the entire South Winds Nation under her thumb! To restore glory to the Feng family, she drugged the Wargod. They have already consummated their alliance.” Tu Xiupei pretended that this revelation was an accidental slip of the tongue and frantically covered her mouth with her hands.

It worked. Qi Shujie became even more disgusted with Feng Tianlan. Had a woman ever been more shameless and underhanded? Only someone like her would continually resort to drugging men and women alike to achieve her goals.

“We, the Flying Frost Pavilion, are the top sect in all of the Guiyuan Continent. No nation in existence has ever dared to go against us. I will not let this slide. Feng Tianlan can consider herself dead. I’ll kill her to avenge you.”

An immense satisfaction washed over Tu Xiupei’s heart. What an idiot! This was precisely what she had been waiting for.
