BXBX NOVEL Chapter 728 - 728 Set a Wedding Date
“You raised me and my sister, yet you’ve failed to defeat them. That’s your failure! You’ll never… overcome Long Shuli in your lifetime!”
“Shut up!” Wu Dao’s anger was palpable.
“Hahaha! I won’t! Su Yingxue has been hindering your plans for so long. Though you pretend to want her gone, you can’t bring yourself to truly kill her! All your attempts have been thwarted by her. Su Yingxue is no longer someone you can simply dispose of! She’s the Ninth Princess Consort, you won’t be able to kill her!”
” What a joke!” Wu Dao’s laughter was particularly hoarse, his mouth twisted into a cold sneer. “I taught her mother. She was born in an era like yours. How could I not kill her?”
“Then go ahead and kill her!” Su Jinxuan roared.
“It’s not time yet. There’s no rush.”
“No rush, or are you afraid? You’ve regretted killing Long Shuli for years. So when you see Su Yingxue, it’s like seeing Long Shuli. Even though Long Shuli ruined your plans to conquer the four kingdoms and become the ruler of the world, you still can’t bring yourself to kill Su Yingxue. In the future… Su Yingxue will surely kill you! Just like Long Shuli! Utterly destroy you!”
Su Jinxuan, using his last ounce of strength, shouted these words before immediately biting off his tongue.
Blood gushed from his mouth. Wu Dao tried to staunch the bleeding, but he couldn’t save him.
As Su Jinxuan closed his eyes, they were filled with relief!
It was over!
His life had ended, but he knew Su Yingxue’s ordeal was about to begin!
Without him as a blood source, Wu Dao would have to go after Su Yingxue. Without blood, he would perish!
Wu Dao was cunning and ruthless. His medical skills surpassed Long Shuli’s, and his power exceeded Chu Yihan’s. His ambition was to dominate the four kingdoms and make everyone submit to him.
Su Yingxue had a vendetta against him for killing her mother. He would have killed Su Yingxue, and Su Yingxue would have surely wanted to kill him too!
Both the one who caused his death and the one he sought to kill would meet a tragic end!
Though Su Jinxuan was still unwilling, he was content!
His death would usher in a torrent of bloodshed!
Wu Dao discarded Su Jinxuan’s body and, while his blood was still fresh, extracted all he could with a syringe.
He took the blood and departed.
A thin layer of snow had already covered the ground. He looked down at the moonlit green stone slab, his eyes filled with greed and longing.
The moonlight must be beautiful at this moment.
But he was not worthy of the light!
In this life, he could only dwell in darkness!
How despicable!
Chu Yihan recuperated for a few days and settled matters in the palace. Then, he came to discuss marriage arrangements with Su Qingzhi.
He brought along Lin Qin, the Minister of Rites, and the Si Tianjian and carefully recounted all the wedding arrangements he had made in the past few days in front of everyone at the Marquis’s Manor.
Su Qingzhi, seated at the head, wore a complex expression.
Su Dingheng and Su Dingwei sat below, their expressions also complex.
Su Yingxue, Su Han, and Su Miaoyan sat at the back, each with a different expression.
Su Qingzhi pondered, “Isn’t the wedding date next month a bit rushed?”
“This is an auspicious date,” Chu Yihan declared loudly. “It’s not rushed.”
Si Tianjian shifted his portly frame and grinned with a joyous and auspicious expression. “Old General, the eighth of next month is the best day in the past six months. It’s the perfect day for a wedding, especially for the Ninth Prince. It’s a cause for celebration.”
