"You can’t handle this?!" Xie Ruilin sneered arrogantly, "There’s even more that you can’t handle. Do you want to hear it?"
At this moment, Xie Ruotong truly wished she could kill Xie Ruilin.
She really shouldn’t have shown mercy.
Not after Song Yanqing took that sword for Xie Ruilin.
She chose to make concessions.
To yield to Song Yanqing and Xie Ruilin.
She really should have.

"Although I personally killed our grandmother, the one who truly wanted her dead was not just me!" Xie Ruilin laughed coldly.
The more Xie Ruotong appeared to be collapsing,
The more exhilarating it felt.
"Did you really think I had the guts to kill our grandmother? No! I am also afraid of death! But Xie Ruiyao gave me support, and even the poison administered to our grandmother was given to me by Xie Ruiyao. Of course, Xie Ruiyao alone was not enough; our mother too. For years, our mother, oppressed by our grandmother and voiceless in Duke Mansion, has long wished for our grandmother’s death. So, in the family, she secretly collaborated with us from within and without!" Xie Ruilin said chillingly, feeling more gratified the more she spoke, "Xie Ruotong, didn’t expect this, did you?! The grandmother you thought everyone respected, in reality, so many people wanted her to die!"
"Enough, Xie Ruilin, enough!" Xie Ruotong collapsed.
She was truly infuriated by Xie Ruilin.
The family she always believed in.
She always thought they were family.
The only thing keeping her going at the Ten Extremes Sect was her family.
Their hearts could be so cruel!
She didn’t even want to believe that this was her own family!
"Xie Ruilin, when I was abducted, I never hated you!" Xie Ruotong said icily.
Now, however, she truly wished she could flay Xie Ruilin alive!
"Heh." Xie Ruilin let out a mocking laugh, "I thought you didn’t know that I intentionally didn’t call for help to save you!"
Xie Ruotong’s eyes were red with anger.
"Actually, I could have called for help. I just despised you, hated how you were always better than me, hated how you were adored by our grandmother, loved by our parents, just wished you were dead!" Xie Ruilin said viciously, "Since childhood, the obedience I showed in front of you was all an act, all to wish you dead!"
"Xie Ruilin, we’re family!" Loved ones.
"I don’t think so," Xie Ruilin was indifferent to Xie Ruotong’s outburst, "To me, anyone who harms my interests is my enemy, there’s no such thing as family. Your very existence affected me! Don’t you know, after you were taken, how well I was treated in Duke Mansion, how respected I was! But ever since you came back, my life has been utterly ruined! Xie Ruotong, all that’s happening to you now, you deserve it!"
Xie Ruotong clenched her fists tightly.
Her body continuously jerked at the chains.
The chains clanged loudly.
But still, she could not break free.
"Oh right." Xie Ruilin seemed to have just remembered something.
The smile on her face became even more venomous.
She looked at Xie Ruotong who had been tortured by her until she was neither human nor ghost.
And said with rising excitement, "The murderer of our grandmother isn’t just me, Xie Ruiyao, or our mother. There’s also, the King of Chu, our fourth brother, and... Song Yanqing!"
Xie Ruotong’s body stiffened.
The body that was struggling frantically suddenly stopped.
Stared intently at Xie Ruilin.
"Can’t believe it?" Xie Ruilin loved the sight of Xie Ruotong’s barely restrained collapse. She continued, "Song Yanqing now serves the King of Chu, but you’re entangled with Ye Qichi. The King of Chu, of course, couldn’t tolerate your presence by Song Yanqing’s side and wanted to annul your marriage. But because of our grandmother’s interference, Song Yanqing couldn’t divorce, so it prompted Xie Ruiyao to come find me to actively kill our grandmother."
Xie Ruotong’s veins bulged with rage.
Her entire body trembled.
Trembled with suppressed fury.
"The King of Chu knew that if grandmother had an incident, he would definitely seek out Ye Qichi for treatment, so he bought our fourth brother in advance, ensuring that Ye Qichi couldn’t arrive in time. I was quite surprised, how did Ye Qichi survive, logically, if the King of Chu caught her, she would be ruthlessly killed. So, was it you who saved Ye Qichi?" Xie Ruilin said, slightly irritated with grudge.
