At the entrance of the prison, Lu An looked at Yun Bing. Actually, he hadn't wanted to see Yun Bing. After all, he didn't have any feelings for her and didn't want to show off here. The reason he had come was purely because Liu Yi was very busy.
Before spreading the news, Liu Yi had naturally told the other women of the Lu Clan about this. It was only then that the six women knew what had happened. Liu Yi naturally told them everything, including how she had written a letter to Yun Bing in her husband's name. When they heard this, everyone was very shocked. They also knew that it was very likely to anger their husband. Even they themselves felt that it was inappropriate to do so. However, this was a plan that Madam had agreed to. Furthermore, it had already happened, so they wouldn't say anything.
As the news spread, Liu Yi also constantly arranged for people to interfere with public opinion in the three-way alliance and human cities, especially regarding Lu An's surname. Many public opinions were set at the beginning and were difficult to change later on. Just like the first impression of a stranger, the initial public opinion was very important. Therefore, Liu Yi had been busy. At the very least, she had to help Lu An stabilize the public opinion on the Immortal Planet. As long as the public opinion on the Immortal Planet could be unified, the entire Heavenly Galaxy would be led by the Immortal Planet. Most people would view this matter according to the public opinion of the Immortal Planet.
It was precisely because Liu Yi was very busy that Lu An came here personally. He looked at Yun Bing, who was almost out of control. There were guards in the long corridor, so he wanted to close the door to avoid awkwardness. However, if he closed the door, it would be even more suspicious. After all, a man and a woman alone in a room couldn't explain themselves. Therefore, Lu An didn't close the door.
"They are fine." Lu An's voice was very calm as he said, "The Immortal Empress has removed the poison in their bodies. They are back to normal."
Lu An wasn't lying. The Immortal Empress had indeed done it.
After all, Lu Ding wasn't at the Heavenly King Realm. His understanding of the Heavenly King Realm's power was still too lacking. In fact, Lu Ding also knew that the Heavenly King Realm could remove the poison. He had only used this to scare Yun Bing. After hearing that the poison in the children had been removed, Yun Bing's tears couldn't stop flowing. Her body finally relaxed from its extremely tense state. Her body went limp as she knelt on the ground and cried.
"…"
Lu An looked at Yun Bing, who was kneeling in front of him. He knew that Yun Bing was not kneeling to him. She had just lost her strength. He didn't stop her, but walked away from Yun Bing and sat down on a chair.
He didn't know how long Yun Bing would cry, and he didn't want to coax her, so he just sat there and waited quietly.
Reality proved that after the child was saved, Yun Bing was able to let go of the things she cared about and worried about the most. Yun Bing's temperament also quickly returned. She would only lose her composure when she was facing an extreme situation, but now, she quickly calmed down. She knew that Lu An would not lie to her, and there was no need to lie to her. She knew that she could not waste Lu An's time, so she gently and forcefully stopped herself from crying. She used her strength to wipe away the tears and dust on her face, and used her hands to comb her hair behind her back.
That's right, this was the first time she paid attention to her image after being caught. Before this, she didn't even consider such things. When she was done, she got up from the ground and turned to face Lu An.
Although Yun Bing's face was very pale and she looked very weak because of the intense mental torture, when she regained her composure, she was still the original Yun Bing.
She was elegant, reserved, and her temperament had completely returned. This was the real her, not the one who was crying bitterly just now.
"Thank you for saving me, Alliance Master. Thank you for saving me, Immortal Empress." Yun Bing bowed deeply.
"No need to thank me," Lu An said. "Stand up and talk."
"Yes, Alliance Master." Yun Bing stood up and looked at Lu An.
This time, when she looked at Lu An, it felt like a lifetime had passed.
From the night before to yesterday morning, she thought that she was lingering with the man in front of her. She thought that the man in front of her had fallen in love with her and wanted to marry her. But after waking up from her dream, the man in front of her looked at her as if they were separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, but she couldn't immediately change her mindset.
Looking at Lu An, she felt that he was very familiar, but also very unfamiliar.
Was all of this … really fake?
The lingering scene last night, the gentle touch, was it really an illusion? Was there really such a realistic illusion in the world?
Now that she calmed down and thought about it, Yun Bing couldn't believe that what she had experienced was actually an illusion. Of course, she couldn't be blamed. Even the Flaming Lion Tribe's Patriarch believed in the illusion, let alone her.
Lu An had always been very sensitive to other people's emotions. And looking at Yun Bing's eyes, he knew that Liu Yi's letter and the Sky Water Illusion probably made it difficult for Yun Bing to accept reality. But now, he was no longer the person who couldn't handle emotions. He wouldn't give Yun Bing any leeway. He said directly, "I came to find you for only one thing. It's your trial."
Trial.
Yun Bing's heart tightened when she heard that. When she begged for mercy for the child, she said that she was willing to do anything for Lu An. Even if she wanted to commit suicide, Lu An didn't have to do anything. She was even willing to be Lu An's servant in her next life. Although the child was saved, she wouldn't go back on her words. She waited calmly for the verdict and didn't beg for mercy.
Looking at Yun Bing like this, Lu An couldn't help but admit that this woman's temperament was natural from the inside out. There was no hypocrisy at all.
"Alliance Master, please speak," Yun Bing said softly in a hoarse voice.
"You have two options. Choose for yourself," Lu An said. "One is to be executed in public. The other is to be tortured in public for a total of ten days. You should know what torture is. I don't need to explain it to you, right? Choose for yourself whether you want to be happy or suffer a fate worse than death. "
Yun Bing, who was prepared to die, trembled visibly when she heard Lu An's words. Even her eyes lit up!
"Alliance Master, what happens after the torture?" Yun Bing asked immediately. "How will I be punished?"
"Let bygones be bygones. Go back to the Celestial Alliance and atone for your crimes," Lu An said.
Yun Bing's eyes lit up even more when she heard that. Her attitude of waiting for death changed. She immediately asked again, "What about my child? Can I take care of my child? "
"Otherwise?" Lu An said, "Do you want someone else to raise your child?"
"…"
Yun Bing's tears gushed out again, but tears couldn't stop her from speaking. She said without hesitation, "I choose the torture!"
"Ten days of torture. Are you sure?" Lu An asked.
"I'm sure!" Yun Bing nodded frantically and said resolutely while crying, "I can definitely get through it!"
Looking at Yun Bing's appearance, Lu An's heart was touched again.
Was this the love of a mother?
Lu An didn't have a child yet, so he couldn't understand this feeling. But looking at Yun Bing's experience and choice, it really reminded him of his mother.
That year … by the ancient river, his mother was probably in as much pain as Yun Bing, right? If Jiang shi spared her life, would her mother also be as grateful as Yun Bing, and would not hesitate to save her?
Thinking of this, Lu An's heart became dignified. Because of this, his hatred for the Kang Clan was even greater.
Lu An took a light breath, got up and said, "Since you choose the torture, starting at noon tomorrow, I hope you can withstand it."
After speaking, Lu An didn't want to talk to Yun Bing anymore and walked directly to the prison door.
Seeing Lu An leave, Yun Bing's heart panicked. She hurriedly came to Lu An's side and wanted to reach out to hold Lu An, but she didn't dare to do so. She could only cry and say, "Alliance Master, can you let me see my two children?!"
Lu An stood still and turned to look at Yun Bing.
"Please, let me see my children before I'm tortured, even if it's just one time …" Yun Bing's voice was full of pleading. Anyone who heard it would feel distressed and sad.
Lu An knew that Yun Bing was worried that the children weren't saved and that he was lying to her. He thought for a moment and said, "Tomorrow morning, before you're tortured, you can go see them."
"Thank you for your kindness, Alliance Master! Thank you, Alliance Master! " Yun Bing's tears were even fiercer. Lu An didn't stay here for a moment longer. He immediately walked out of the door and closed it.
Only Yun Bing was left in the room. After Lu An left, she couldn't hold on and collapsed to the ground, crying bitterly.
But this time, she was crying tears of happiness.
The children were saved.
The children were finally saved.
She knew that if she went to see the children tomorrow morning, as long as the children were alive, it was enough to prove that the poison in their bodies had disappeared.
She would definitely get through it. The children had suffered too much and couldn't be orphans anymore. No matter what, she had to bear it and let the children grow up well on the Immortal Planet.
