Lady Yang hugged Ximen Wanwan, frightened and unable to stand steady. She looked at Su Qian and the others as if she had seen a ghost. “Stop! We’re from the Ximen family.”
Su Qian glanced at Lady Yang, her eyes filled with bloodthirsty killing intent. With a wave of her hand, a red silk shot out from her sleeve, sending Lady Yang flying.
There was a loud bang. Lady Yang’s figure was like a torn sack in the air and left an afterimage in the air. When she landed, she broke a few ribs. It was so painful that she cried out and fainted.
“Go back and tell the Master of the Ximen family that in due time, not a single person from the Ximen family will be spared.” Su Qian’s voice was cold and deranged, filled with bloodthirsty killing intent. Everyone present felt their scalps go numb. They knew very well that Su Qian’s words were serious!
“I will take care of the rest. Use my carriage and bring the children back.” Xiao Yan’s tone was emotionless as he spoke calmly.
“Okay.” Su Qian was worried about the two children’s condition. She carried one in each hand and quickly left.
Dong Yan hurriedly sent two hidden guards to protect them. Just as he was surprised that his master was so calm, he suddenly felt a suffocating chill whistling towards him, scaring Dong Yan so much that the hairs on his back instantly stood up.
The temperature of the entire street almost instantly dropped to freezing point. Xiao Yan’s eyes revealed unprecedented bloodthirst and ruthlessness. With a crack, he crushed the iron armrest of the wheelchair.
Plop!
Dong Yan and the rest of the hidden guards did not dare to hesitate. Their knees gave way and they knelt heavily on the ground, making a heavy thud. Everyone instantly broke out in cold sweats.
Not only the hidden guards but everyone else in the surroundings was also frightened by the soaring viciousness around Xiao Yan. Everyone on the street dared not stand, only feeling the terrifying aura as if Mount Tai was pressing down on their backs. Cold sweat uncontrollably streamed down their foreheads and dripped onto the ground.
Who would have thought that Ninth Prince, once despised by everyone, would possess such a terrifying aura?
“Take them away,” Xiao Yan coldly forced out a word. After he finished speaking, he pushed the wheelchair and left.
Dong Yan and the others had lingering fears, so they hurriedly brought all the members of the Ximen family with them.
“Let me go quickly. Otherwise, 1’11 tell my father…” Before Ximen Wanwan finished speaking, her mouth was gagged by a hidden guard and she was taken away.
It was unclear how long they had been walking, but Ximen Wanwan was knocked unconscious halfway.
In a state of drowsiness, Ximen Zhao felt like he was a pile of mud. His surroundings were frighteningly cold, and his limbs were in excruciating pain. He had clearly woken up, but his body was too exhausted that he could not move. No matter how hard he tried, he could not open his eyes.
“Wake him up.”
A deep male voice sounded, followed by a bucket of ice water being splashed on Ximen Zhao’s face.
“Ah!” Caught off guard, he was splashed with ice water. The bone-piercing cold stimulated Ximen Zhao’s heart to almost stop beating. He wanted to get up from the ground in fear, but he did not expect to be affected by the injuries on his limbs. He grimaced in pain and could only fall heavily again.
After falling, Ximen Zhao’s vision regained clarity. He looked around in confusion. “Where is this?”
At this moment, he appeared in a pitch-black room, with walls devoid of windows. But there was a lamp on the table not far away. The weak light shone on the walls that were filled with torture instruments. Many of the torture instruments were stained with blood, making people feel terrified when they saw them..
