The Shadow Moon Palace Lord seemed to sense Yue Ye's terror and he then turned his head to say: "Little Ye, do not worry. I will definitely think of a way to save your elder brother."
Yue Ye suppressed the rage in her heart and only managed to pull out a weak and pale smile.
"Ye 'er only has one brother, Yue Yi. I beg Your Highness to save my brother."
"Definitely. Even if it's for Ye 'er's sake, I will save your brother." The Shadow Moon Palace Lord took the opportunity to stroke Yue Ye's tiny hand, wanting to do something else but unable to do so due to his splitting headache. He could only say a few words of comfort to Yue Ye before he let Yue Ye leave.
Yue Ye maintained a calm facade as she walked out from the Shadow Moon Palace Lord's room. The sky outside was gradually turning dark and the moonlight spilled onto the ground. Yue Ye stepped upon the moonlight, but every step she took felt like she was stepping on the tip of her own heart, which made her feel suffocated.
"Ye 'er." A nightmarish voice suddenly rang out behind Yue Ye.
Yue Ye was shocked and she turned to look in the direction of the voice.
Elder Yue walked out slowly from within the shadows at the side, and upon that sanctimonious face, was a sinister smile that sent chills up people's spines.
"Ye 'er is really a smart child. You know how to use His Highness to get what you want, but … Am I not good enough for you? Your clothing, food, shelter and transportation, are all several times better than the other disciples in the Shadow Moon Palace, only slightly inferior to the Young Lord. Even so, are you still not satisfied? Really a wolf cub that cannot be tamed. "Elder Yue said with his eyes narrowed, staring at Yue Ye viciously.
Yue Ye held her breath, as she looked at Elder Yue who was slowly approaching.
Elder Yue looked at the highly nervous Yue Ye and reached his hand out to lift up a clump of hair from her shoulder, to bring it before his nose to sniff at it.
"Ye'er indeed loves cleanliness. Even though he is accompanied by dirt all day long, he still feels so refreshed. I wonder if a person who has been burned by fire will feel as refreshed as Ye'er?"
Yue Ye's heart jumped, her eyes wide as she stared at Elder Yue whose words held a hidden meaning.
"What did you do to my brother!?" Yue Ye's eyes flashed as she asked through gritted teeth.
"Yue Yi? He is my grandson. What can I do to him? You heard it just now. The attack on the Hill City branch was just an accident. I didn't expect it either. Yue Yi is so obedient, unlike you, an ingrate who forgets favors. I naturally love him dearly, and I'm also very worried for him. Tell me, his body hasn't recovered from the raging flames, so how can he escape from being engulfed by them? Or perhaps … after he was caught, what kind of torture would he suffer? My heart is really aching for you. "Elder Yue muttered in a strange tone.
Every single word that he said was like a sharp blade that slashed across Yue Ye's heart.
"Let him go! I can immediately ask His Highness to let me continue to follow by your side. "Yue Ye clenched her fists tightly, squeezing out a desperate plea from her throat.
She only had Yue Yi as her only relative. She could no longer bear the pain of losing her brother.
So what if it was freedom? As long as she could get Yue Yi back, she was willing to pay any price!
"What a deep sibling bond. But Ye 'er, do you really think I'm senile? You said so much to the Palace Lord, do you think you can just go back on your word just because you want to? Even if you say you want to come back, the Palace Lord will think that I am threatening you and I do not want to incur the Palace Lord's disgust. "Elder Yue said with a low laugh.
"Then what do you want me to do? I can do anything. "Yue Ye said, drawing in a deep breath.
