Chapter 1082: The Truth About Rakshasa
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Su Li looked terrified and whispered, “Hey, Fourth Brother! Aren’t you afraid that Grandpa will beat you up! You should at least hesitate!” That jade-faced Rakshasa!
Why couldn’t he be on the same side as his biological brother?
Couldn’t the two of them escape together?
“Come in!”
The Old Marquis roared angrily and Su Li slipped in.
The Old Marquis sat on the cold official hat chair.
A dim oil lamp was lit on the table at the side.
Half of his face reflected the light, and the other half was shrouded in shadows. He looked at Su Xuan and Su Li coldly. “Kneel!”
At the Protector Duke’s Estate, Su Xiaoxiao arranged a beautiful courtyard for Ling Yun. He could admire the scenery in the day and see the stars at night.
Ling Yun sat in the room wiping the zither.
Su Xiaoxiao knocked on the door. Ling Yun said, “I’m asleep.” Su Xiaoxiao said, “Egg yolk pastry.”
“Come in.”
Su Xiaoxiao carried a plate of freshly baked egg yolk pastries into the house.
She sat down opposite him.
Ling Yun reached out to take the egg yolk pastries, but Su Xiaoxiao hugged the plate.
Ling Yun looked at her resentfully, as if he was accusing her. It was very tiring to pretend to be Zhuge Qing. Wouldn’t she him eat?
Su Xiaoxiao coughed lightly and said, “Answer a few questions and I’ll give you all these egg yolk pastries.”
Ling Yun chuckled. “Do you think I care?”
Su Xiaoxiao picked up an egg yolk pastry and took a big bite.
Seeing that Ling Yun was silent, Su Xiaoxiao picked up the second egg yolk pastry and took another bite.
When she was about to cause trouble with the third one, Ling Yun couldn’t take it anymore and said, “What do you want to ask?”
Su Xiaoxiao stopped while she was ahead and retracted her demonic claws.
“It’s about my fourth cousin. Is my fourth cousin hiding something from us?”
Ling Yun said, “You should ask him.”
Su Xiaoxiao sighed. “If he was willing to say it, I wouldn’t have come to you.”
Ling Yun took the tea leaves away and poured her a glass of warm water. “He’s your brother, not mine. What makes you think I’ll know about him?”
“Thank you.” Su Xiaoxiao brought the teacup over and looked into his eyes. “Su
Li said that you treated Rakshasa’s injuries.”
Ling Yun denied it. “No, I just gave him some medicine.”
Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows. “What medicine is better than mine?”
Ling Yun said without changing his expression, “There’s always someone better.”
Su Xiaoxiao hit the nail on the head. “But you’re not a doctor. Don’t say that you found another doctor to get the medicine. I don’t believe you.” Ling Yun curled his lips. “If you don’t believe me, why are you asking me?”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “I’ll believe you if you tell me the truth.”
“Hmph.” Ling Yun snorted.
Su Xiaoxiao placed the egg yolk pastry she had taken a bite of into another clean plate.
She didn’t rush him and just looked at him with her arms crossed.
After a long time, Ling Yun sighed helplessly. “He was planted with Heart Guide.”
“What’s a Heart Guide?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.
Ling Yun said, “It’s a little difficult to explain. You can think of it as a restriction of martial arts or as a poison. Every disciple of the Assassin Alliance has been planted by the Alliance Master. Once they betray the Assassin Alliance, the Alliance Master will find them and activate the Heart Guide in their bodies, causing their hearts to explode and die.”
Su Xiaoxiao touched her chin. “No wonder it’s called the Heart Guide. It sounds quite powerful. Was Su Xuan also activated when he vomited blood last time?”
Ling Yun nodded. “Yes.”
