Chapter 523: A Warning to the Birds

st that the smell of blood is a bit unbearable. The road is too bumpy, and I can't hold on for long. You keep an eye on me, I have to recover my injuries by channeling my inner strength." She then too...“So, you planned all of this beforehand!” Liao Qinghuan’s thin body trembled, her eyes filled with sadness and disappointment. It was as if in an instant, her entire world had collapsed. What could be more heartbreaking than the betrayal of her most trusted sister

Perhaps if it were someone else who betrayed her today, her heart wouldn't hurt this much!

"Yes! All these years, I've been biting my tongue, just waiting for an opportunity. Now, the opportunity has finally arrived!" The woman in yellow looked at her triumphantly, as if victory was already hers.

"Oh! So my arrival has triggered another conspiracy" Xiao Yuge feigned surprise, her eyes wide. In truth, she had already heard about the Qingyi Men incident. After all, Qianjige and Shuang Xue Lou were two major networks in the martial arts world. Especially Qianjige, with its informants spread throughout the land, there was nothing they didn't know.

“So, Xiao Yu Ge, now that you’re down below, don’t blame me too much. Rest assured, I’ll have them burn extra paper money for you! Make sure you live comfortably over there!” The woman in yellow shouted at the two burly men who were frozen in place. “What are you waiting for Attack!”

"You can't hurt her!" Liao Qinghuan leaped forward, standing in front of Xiao Yuge: "She has entanglements with the King and Crown Prince. If something happens to her here at Qingyi Gate, then all the sisters of our gate will be implicated!" Even at this moment, she was still thinking about the well-being of her fellow sisters.

“Sister, by your looks, you’ve chosen to oppose me!” The woman in yellow drew a line across her face, her eyes hardening. “You two are fortunate. Tonight, the current sect leader will bestow upon you the former sect leader who is charming and alluring! Don't underestimate her age, she's still a virgin, a rare gem for you both!" With that, a sinister and smug smile spread across her face.

"You dare!" Liao Qinghuan's face flushed red with anger. She didn't expect that her younger sister would even spare her.

"Master, rest assured, we'll be gentler later! Forgive our offense!" One of the burly men, Y, grinned and charged towards Liao Qinghuan.

"Be bold!" Although Liao Qinghuan's martial arts skills weren't great, she wouldn't just sit there and wait for death. Seeing the burly man charge at her, she gathered strength in her palms, preparing to slap him back.

But as soon as she moved, her whole body went limp. She instinctively looked towards the incense burner beside her, and it seemed like she understood something: “You... you actually dared...”

"Sister, even before I arrived, they had already set the soft tendon powder here. Even if your martial arts are superb, you can't muster any internal energy right now. You're just like an ordinary woman with no strength, obediently listen to me!" The woman in yellow saw Liao Qinghuan's expression of anger and delight, feeling very pleased.

"You, little one..." Liao Qinghuan looked at the maid serving her, as if she understood something.

"She has belonged to me since she was young, of course she would only be loyal to me." The yellow-clothed woman's words confirmed Liao Qinghuan's guess.

"Deputy Master, please spare the Head Mistress! She has always treated us well. You can't do this to her!" At this moment, a young girl knelt down and pleaded for Liao Qinghuan.

The woman in yellow glared, her eyes fierce: "Shut up! From this moment on, you will all call me Master! Otherwise, your fate will be like Liao Qinghuan's!"

"See the Sect Leader! We pledge our unwavering loyalty to you!" The little maid took the lead, kneeling down to show her allegiance. Those around her, though reluctantly, followed suit. Despite their inner resentment, they were forced to kneel.

“Hahaha!” The woman in yellow laughed triumphantly.

“You all! I never expected that you would betray the Mistress even after she treated you so well! It's too despicable!” The young girl looked at her fallen sisters, her eyes filled with tears of anger. She still insisted on her stance: “I only have one Mistress! And I will absolutely not allow anyone to harm her!”

“You’re asking for death!” The woman in yellow changed her expression drastically. With a sudden slap, she struck the young girl, sending her flying backward. She collided with a pillar and then crashed to the ground, opening her mouth and spitting out a mouthful of blood!

This is a warning shot across the bow. She's using this to establish her authority!

"Xiaodong!" Liao Qinghuan cried out in pain at the little girl.

"Master..." Poor little girl named Xiaodong, her face contorted in pain, reached out to her with a pleading look. She opened her mouth as if desperate to say something, but ultimately couldn't utter a word, her hand falling limply back down.

The girls standing nearby were stunned by Xiaodong's tragic death. They looked at each other, their faces pale with fear. These sisters, who usually cherished their bond, now hesitated to approach Xiaodong and offer help.

"Xiaodong!" Liao Qinghuan was heartbroken, her tearful eyes slowly looked at the cruel-faced woman in yellow: "Huang Fengyin, how could you be so cruel Xiaodong is a child we have watched grow up!"

“She dared to disrespect the headmaster of our sect, so she deserves to die!” The woman in yellow showed no remorse. In her eyes, it was worth sacrificing a young girl to establish authority. She yelled at the two burly men again, “What are you two waiting for Move now, or I’ll kill you both right here!”

"Yes!" The two strong men no longer hesitated, and walked towards Liao Qinghuan and Xiao Yuge again.

"Even if I die, I will never endure such humiliation!" Liao Qinghuan knew that her martial arts were exhausted at this time, and those sisters, under Huang Fengyin's intimidation, naturally dared not come to her rescue. Therefore, she decided to bite her tongue and commit suicide.

"Master Liao, don't be impulsive!" Xiao Yuge saw that Liao Qinghuan was about to commit suicide and quickly pulled her back secretly.

"Miss Xiao, I'm so sorry! I dragged you into this!" Liao Qinghuan looked ashamed. She knew the ins and outs of the situation and that everything was Fang Minrou's own fault. She couldn't stand their actions, but she was too cowardly to stop them.

"As a sect master, you were indeed quite pathetic, but as a person, you're still passable, so, your crime isn't punishable by death!" Xiao Yuge rubbed her hands together, secretly furrowing her brow: it was already April, how come it was still so cold Watching the play had made her hands numb with cold. Looks like she needed to get moving and warm up!

"Little beauty, brother's here!"

Just then, two burly men rushed towards them!

Xiao Yuge grabbed Liao Qinghuan's waist, lightly spinning her feet, and dodged the two men's forceful charge!

The two men came up empty, falling to the ground with dazed expressions. They seemed unable to believe that Xiao Yuge and her companions could actually dodge their attacks. After a brief moment of stunned silence, the two men looked at each other and charged towards them once more!

“I gave you a chance, so now, you have none!” Xiao Yu Ge’s lips curled into a charming smile, but her eyes were chillingly cold. With a casual flick of her hands, two bone-piercing needles pierced through the burly man’s throat in the blink of an eye!

They hadn't even had a chance to utter a sound before they collapsed heavily to the ground!to things just a while ago was now suddenly backtracking."Sorry, I'm in a bad mood..." Xiao Yu Ge took a deep breath, trying her best to control the emotions threatening to overwhelm her."Ge'er, I'm t...
