Chapter 855 “Please Take My Uncle (1)”
The maid dashes over, her face full of urgency: “Please save my brother! I’ll tell you everything if you save my brother! Miss is the one who told me to frame you, it was her! She used my brother to threaten me, saying I must do as she says if I want my brother to be safe. That’s the main reason why I took responsibility, I needed to keep my brother out from harm!”
“You shut up!” Lashing out from shameful anger, Luo Yun quickly came up to her maid and slapped the girl across the face: “If you say another word then I’ll make you regret it!”
The maid may have blabbed the truth out in a momentary rush, but the fact that she’s still dreadfully afraid of Huo Yun remains true. However, the urge to save her one and only brother continues to burn strong so she didn’t relent.
Becoming firm in the voice now instead of urgent panic: “I did not lie! Miss have always been the type to act strong since she was young. Because of that, the talented disciples back at the Fiery Flame Sect have all been executed by her long ago so the reason she was picked to come was because we had no one else for the test!”
The disciples of the various forces were completely dumbfounded with shock due to the maid’s outburst. For one, the biggest question surrounding why the Fiery Flame Sect would send someone so weak was exactly this because it just didn’t make sense to incur the ire of the Holy Land just for one girl’s whim. But now it has come out there’s no other capable disciple inside that school? In that case, what would happen if the current Fiery Flame Lord dies of old age? Wouldn’t they become so weak that they’re inferior to a third-rate power?
“If you keep babbling nonsense then I’ll tear off your lip!” In her fit of rage after being exposed repeatedly, Huo Yun was ready to reach over to make that threat true when a disciple nearby stopped her mid action.
“Why are you so angry for? Is it because the maid’s word is all true? If so, why don’t we listen to all of it before we continue, how about that?” Chu Yi Yi’s sarcastic voice timely cuts in, “Go ahead, explain the matter of your brother. Don’t worry, I will have someone go secure him afterwards so nothing will happen!”
The maid grew exalted over the happy news. From what was fear and anxiety has now been replaced with joyous hope. As long as my younger brother is safe then I have no regret even in death!
“Yes, Princess,” the maid makes a sigh of relief before continuing, “her ladyship wanted to frame Miss Bai Yan there only because of a simple reason that she blocked our path at the entrance, plus the part with the child’s insult…. Her ladyship felt humiliated, hence the reason why she had Lin Yahan frame Miss Bai Yan over there!” Leaving a moment of pause, the maid somehow seemed more vicious when she bit those lips of hers: “These kinds of schemes aren’t her first, it has been done many times during her childhood. She’s the daughter of the Fiery Flame Lord so no one can punish her even if caught, and…. she used to have a younger brother. But because of the exceptional talent the young master portrayed as a child, the lady here got jealous and murdered him….”
