"Buju, what do you think about this matter?" The City Lord of Grand Emperor City was cunning. He wanted Yuan Shahua to pay for Xuan Wuji's life, but he did not say it out loud. Instead, he pretended to ask Yuan Buju.
Yuan Buju and Yuan Shahua were the same. Both father and daughter looked kind, but in fact, they were extremely unyielding.
Yuan Shahua had killed Xuan Wuji this time, so logically speaking, she should pay for it with her life.
Yuan Buju closed his eyes in pain and said with a trembling voice.
"Buju, I'm sorry. Men, bury Yuan Shahua alive in seven days! "
Madam Yuan returned to the Yuan Residence in a daze. Yuan Bupo and his second sister, Yuan Shanshan, who were waiting in the residence, quickly gathered around her.
"Mother, how is it? Have you seen Eldest Sister? "
The three members of the Yuan Family were very close. When they heard that Eldest Sister had killed Xuan Wuji, they were very anxious.
"The City Lord said that he wants your Eldest Sister to be buried with him," Madam Yuan sobbed.
"What?! Xuan Wuji, that bastard, deserved to die. Why should he want Eldest Sister to be buried with him?! " Yuan Bupo was furious. He had said that he wanted to go with his parents, but his father, Yuan Buju, was worried that he would be reckless and did not allow him to go.
"That's right. We can't let them bury Eldest Sister alive. What time is it now?! If they want to bury her, they should let Xuan Wuji's women be buried with her, "Yuan Shanshan said angrily.
Xuan Wuji was not a good person at all.
After Eldest Sister left, he used the excuse of drunkenness to harass her a few times, but was chased away by her younger brother.
Yuan Shanshan felt that Xuan Wuji deserved to die.
"But what can we do? Your Eldest Sister did kill Xuan Wuji. Why is that child so foolish? It has been so many years, but she still can't let it go," Madam Yuan wiped her tears.
"I heard that Yun Canglang was also there. I think Eldest Sister must have done it for him," Yuan Bupo said.
Eldest Sister had a stubborn temper. When she left Grand Emperor City, she had already let go of all her grudges. Needless to say, she did it this time because of Yun Canglang.
"Eldest Sister is so foolish," Yuan Shanshan sighed. "Is it worth it for her to do this for that man?"
When the First Elder returned, he also brought back news that Yun Canglang had broken through and become the new Martial Saint of Zhou State.
Big Sister's face was ruined, and the other party definitely didn't want her anymore. However, she was willing to take on the crime of betraying the city for him.
"No, I have to save Big Sister," Yuan Bupo was annoyed.
No matter what, he could not watch his elder sister being buried alive.
"Bupo, don't be rash. You're in an awkward position right now. You can't be rash. Now that Xuan Wuji is dead, you'll most likely inherit the position of City Lord. If anything happens to you, the people from the City Lord's Mansion will definitely use this to threaten you. "Lady Yuan wiped the corners of her eyes.
The relationship between the Xuanyuan and Xuanyuan Clans was very special. They seemed to be very close, but in the hundred years since the establishment of the Grand Emperor City, there had been a lot of internal strife between the two clans. Especially in the matter of the succession of the City Lord, it was even more mutual deception.
Back then, Xuan Sitian and Yuan Buju were both popular candidates for the position of City Lord. However, Yuan Buju fell in love with Lady Yuan, who was born a commoner, while Xuan Sitian abandoned his childhood sweetheart and chose Lady Bi, who had a more honorable status. That was how he successfully seized the position of City Lord.
This matter had been a burden in Lady Yuan's heart for many years. Now that Xuan Wuji was dead, Yuan Bupo became the popular candidate. Lady Yuan was unwilling to let her son get into trouble at this critical juncture.
Yuan Bupo opened his mouth and wanted to say something. However, his second sister, Yuan Shanshan, shook her head at him. Yuan Bupo understood tacitly.
At night, the Yuan Mansion was silent. After Yuan Buju returned from the City Lord's Mansion, he had a discussion with Lady Yuan.
Lady Yuan sobbed softly, "It's all my fault. If it wasn't for me back then …"
If Yuan Buju had not given up the opportunity to marry Lady Bi, who was from a wealthy family in the city, and married her, he would have been the City Lord by now.
He would not have had to live by Xuan Sitian's face and Sha Hua would not have fallen to this state today.
"Look at you. What are you talking about? If it wasn't for you, where would Sha Hua come from? This is also the child's own choice. You can't blame anyone else. The underground prison is gloomy and there is only one escape route from the sewer. After a few days, go to the underground prison and take a look. It can be considered as the last time you see that child. "Yuan Buju comforted his beloved wife. His gaze seemed to have drifted outside the window.
Outside the window, Yuan Bupo and Yuan Shanshan held their breaths. They bent their backs and slipped out of the mansion.
The Yuan siblings had pretended to compromise in order to appease their mother. Tonight, when they heard what their father said, they knew that the City Lord's Mansion was determined to kill their sister. Therefore, they discussed and went to rescue Yuan Sha Hua under the cover of the night.
To Yuan Bupo, he did not care about the City Lord's position. He only wanted to save his sister. At most, he would leave the Grand Emperor City.
A smiling face flashed across Yuan Bupo's mind. The woman's smile with dimples was like the brightest star in the sky. He could not help but fall into a daze.
"Third Brother? Why are you in a daze? "Yuan Shanshan saw that Yuan Bupo was still in a daze. She could not help but become impatient and pushed Yuan Bupo.
Recently, her little brother had been acting weird. He used to be cool and handsome. Recently, he would be in a daze from time to time. It was as if he had become a fool after leaving the Grand Emperor City.
"Second Sister, are you sure that the sewer of the underground prison is on the west side of the City Lord's Mansion?" Yuan Bupo's handsome face turned red as he collected his thoughts.
"Are you still doubting your second sister?" Yuan Shanshan had a face of confidence. Actually, she did not know why there was an extra map of the City Lord's Mansion's underground prison in her room. However, it was a matter of life and death. She could not be bothered to investigate so much. She had to think of a way to save her sister first.
Both the brother and sister were top-notch fighters in the city.
Although the City Lord's Mansion was heavily guarded, the siblings still managed to sneak in.
The underground prison was dark and humid.
Anyone who entered the underground prison would have their douqi and magic sealed. Their sister's body was not well. In such an environment …
"Sister!"
The two of them saw the torture rack in the underground prison. Their sister was tied up at the side.
Her long hair was scattered and her clothes were covered in blood. Her limbs were also heavily shackled.
At the side, there was a blood-stained whip and a bucket.
Yuan Bupo only felt a surge of anger in his heart. Yuan Shanshan hurriedly cut off the shackles and put down her sister, Yuan Shahua.
Yuan Shahua had already fainted. After a while, she woke up.
"Is it Madam Bi? That bitch! "Yuan Bupo looked at his sister. They actually dared to use torture on his sister. The Yuan Clan was also a prominent clan in the city. According to the city's laws, even if they had committed a serious crime, they should not be punished so severely. It was obvious that Madam Bi was the one who did it.
It was not enough to bury her sister alive. She had to be humiliated before she died.
Yuan Bupo got up and wanted to question Madam Bi. However, he was stopped by Yuan Shahua.
