Words:967Update:22/06/30 03:58:38
Yue Ye had been poisoning the Shadow Moon Palace Lord since a few years ago, to wear down his body bit by bit, hoping that one day when the Shadow Moon Palace Lord died and the Shadow Moon Palace would fall into chaos, the brother and sister duo would then be able to seize the opportunity to dig themselves out from this demonic den.
But with Jun Wu's appearance, it had completely messed up Yue Ye's plans. Seeing that the Shadow Moon Palace Lord was gradually improving because of the Melted Snow Elixir that Jun Wu had presented to him, Yue Ye could not sit still any longer.
And at that moment, because of Jun Xie's appearance, Elder Yue had been thrown into a fluster and he had attempted to get Yue Ye to frame Jun Xie. Yue Ye had then thought of poisoning Jun Xie and that had led to the incident where the entire pond of koi fish had lost their lives.
Yue Ye had long harbored the intention to kill Jun Xie. She had painstakingly plotted for so many years and her plan was just about to succeed. How could she give up such an opportunity?
But Yue Yi's words from before made Yue Ye hesitate.
Yue Ye had seen the various ugly truths of the Shadow Moon Palace from a young age and besides her own elder brother, she did not trust anyone else.
The only person she cared about was Yue Yi.
Yue Yi had said that Jun Xie was his benefactor who had saved his life. That had caused Yue Ye to be conflicted for a long while before she finally gave up on her plan to murder Jun Xie, and switched to using the medicine in the sachet, to make Jun Xie temporarily lose the chance to cause any more trouble.
Unfortunately …
All her plans were easily exposed by Jun Wu Xie.
"It's true that I had wanted to kill you in the beginning, but you saved my brother's life. My brother is the only person I care about in this world. You saved him, and I owe you my life." Yue Ye looked at Jun Xie seriously.
Jun Wu Xie knew that Yue Ye was not joking. With her understanding of Medicine, Jun Wu Xie was well aware of Yue Ye's talent in the field of poisons. Yue Ye was still very young and given enough time, the poisons that she would be able to create would surely shock everyone.
For a person who was able to endure silently in the Shadow Moon Palace for so many years, and was able to secretly plot to assassinate the Shadow Moon Palace Lord at such a young age, Yue Ye's abilities definitely surpassed all her peers.
If Yue Ye's opponent this time was not Jun Xie, it was highly possible that she would have already succeeded.
"Our goals are the same. You want to destroy the Shadow Moon Palace and I want my freedom. If it's possible, we can work together. I think, you must have come to me for this matter right? Afterall, if you want to destroy the Shadow Moon Palace, it would be the quickest way to strike at the Palace Lord, and I am the most suitable candidate. " Yue Ye slowly revealed her plan, not because she was naive and easily trusting others, but because Yue Ye had realized that Jun Xie had already guessed everything, or Jun Xie would not have come knocking on her door like this.
Jun Wu Xie's arrival had already indicated that Yue Ye did not have many secrets to hide.
A person who was able to neutralize her poison would definitely not be weak. If she tried to play any petty tricks with Jun Xie at this moment, Yue Ye knew that she would be the one in trouble.
"I like to work with smart people." Jun Wu Xie was highly satisfied with Yue Ye's performance. It could be said that Yue Ye's intelligence was far above the average person. She had been honest about many things, but at the same time, had kept a part of her secrets to herself.
For example, Yue Ye had never mentioned where she had gotten her poison skills from.
But Jun Wu Xie did not mind.
She had already achieved her goal.
There was one point that Jun Wu Xie highly admired in what Yue Ye had done, and that was to clearly distinguish between gratitude and grudges. From Yue Ye's point of view, Jun Wu Xie was the tiger that had stood in the way of her plans, but because of Yue Yi's words, she had decided to change her plans.
