Chapter 1480: Scandal

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Quite a few people secretly exchanged glances. What exactly is this Baili Chun thinking? Just now, Rong Xiu clearly said that he wants to send this father-daughter duo off. Yet, he jumped out to stop him? Is it worth pitting himself against Rong Xiu just for Jiang Zhiyuan? Anyway, Jiang Hetian is already dead. Why should he save Jiang Zhiyuan?
However, Rong Xiu seemed to have expected this scene. He wasn’t shocked or angry as he calmly questioned Baili Chun. “Clan Leader, you’ve seen everything that happened just now. Jiang Zhiyuan is guilty! Besides, as the Sky-Cloud Empire’s His Grace, can’t I kill a criminal?”
Baili Chun’s lips moved. “Jiang Hetian was the one who made a mistake! Jiang Hetian was also the one who wanted to kill Shangguan Yue! Yuan Yuan just fought with her twice altogether! Besides, Shangguan Yue isn’t really injured! On the other hand, Yuan Yuan was defeated and severely injured. Her life is also in danger!”
“Anyway, Jiang Hetian is already dead. According to what you said, the Jiang family has a new master. If so, Yuan Yuan’s identity as the Jiang family’s Big Missy won’t be like before!”
“Her Yuan meridian is broken. She has also painfully lost her father, and she’s already in a perilous situation! Even so, you’re not willing to let her off?” The more Baili Chun talked, the angrier he got. At the end, his tone was a strict interrogation!!!
On the other hand, Rong Xiu looked normal. After waiting for Baili Chun to finish talking, he then smiled and said, “That’s what you want to say?”
Baili Chun was stumped and whipped his sleeves harshly.
Rong Xiu lightly nodded. “If you’re done, I’ll say a thing or two. Jiang Zhiyuan knew everything Jiang Hetian did, so she’s not considered innocent. If not, she wouldn’t have initiated the two previous battles and used her trump card the moment she took action. She lost to Yue’er because she’s not good enough and is weak. Why did it suddenly become her reason to be let off scot-free?”
“As for her identity as the Jiang family’s Big Missy Jiang… She should’ve realized that she would have such a day when she wanted to attack Yue’er. Besides… she has always treated herself as the Sky-Cloud Empire’s Big Missy Jiang, right? As for the identity of a mere Jiang family’s Big Missy, she didn’t think much of it. Even if she’s not, she wouldn’t feel bad.”
“She should be punished for doing something wrong! You want me to pity her, but why didn’t you think about how much Yue’er had to suffer alone when she was surrounded and attacked by all of you?” He wants me to let Jiang Zhiyuan go, but who will let my Yue’er go?
Rong Xiu’s tone was nonchalant, yet it had a stern murderous intent to it.
Chu Liuyue’s heart seemed to be hit by something as a sweet feeling spread from her aching spot.
She tilted her head and looked at Rong Xiu.
His side profile was smooth and perfect. At this point, his jade-like chin was slightly tense, and the depths of his phoenix-like eyes were filled with tumbling anger.
He was angry for her.
He felt unjust for her.
Chu Liuyue lightly heaved a sigh of relief. At that moment, it seemed like all the anger and hatred had silently disappeared.
No matter what, this man will always be by my side, sheltering me from the storm and protecting my all. This is already sufficient. She took a step forward, walked to Rong Xiu, and held his hand.
The moment their fingertips touched, Rong Xiu instantly held her hand. His fingers went through the gaps between hers, and after a small touch, they held each other’s hands tightly.
His hand was dry and warm, and the temperature seemed to have warmed the bottom of her heart.
Chu Liuyue instantly felt much more secure.
…
Baili Chun was stumped to the point he couldn’t say anything. Seeing their intimate behavior and their interlocked fingers, he finally realized how important this woman was to Rong Xiu!
Rong Xiu loved this woman! It was even to the extent where she was more important than him!
Not to mention Jiang Zhiyuan… Even if any other woman in the world came down, they wouldn’t be able to fight for this princess consort position!
If it were in the past, Baili Chun might be able to use some forceful methods to pressure Rong Xiu into obeying him. However, there was clearly no such chance now.
Rong Xiu killed Jiang Hetian in front of him on purpose! This was his warning!
Baili Chun couldn’t hold it in. I was in seclusion for a few years, and the entire world has changed! Rong Xiu has long left my control! Now, the only thing I can do is protect Jiang Zhiyuan!
“Yuan Yuan did something wrong. You can punish her, but you can’t kill her! I will never agree to that!” Baili Chun’s attitude was very persistent.
Chu Liuyue squinted her eyes, and doubt flashed across her heart. Baili Chun cares about Jiang Zhiyuan too much, right? He even pitted himself against Rong Xiu because of her? Rong Xiu has already clearly stated the reason for wanting to kill Jiang Zhiyuan, yet he’s behaving like this… Even if he did bring Jiang Zhiyuan up, there shouldn’t be much of a fight about such things, right? Unless… he has a reason as to why he can’t give up on Jiang Zhiyuan!
As the Sky Cloud Empire’s clan leader, he has experienced all sorts of thunderstorms. Something that could make him act in this manner… A faint guess appeared in Chu Liuyue’s mind, and she knitted her brows.
Rong Xiu already said, “If you don’t want me to kill her, you have to give me a reason, right?”
Baili Chun’s face turned white. “There’s no reason! No means no! I’m the clan leader. Do I not even have the right to preserve one’s life?!”
This was rather unreasonable and illogical.
Rong Xiu wasn’t anxious, and his thin lips curled up slightly. He turned around and looked at Chu Liuyue as he smiled gently and said, “Yue’er, did you know that in the Sky Cloud Empire, there are two ways one can be saved from the death penalty if they’ve committed such a crime?”
Chu Liuyue cooperatively revealed a curious look. “What two methods?”
Rong Xiu raised his sharp brows slightly. “The first method: this person has made huge contributions to the Sky-Cloud Empire and used his results to make up for his sins! Another…”
He paused. “Would require that person to have the bloodline of the Sky Cloud’s Empire eldest descendant. She can be saved then!”
