Mo Yunxian could not help but be taken aback.
"Xian 'er, what are you doing?!" Mo You was completely shocked. He knew that Mo Yunxian was anxious to see Ling Yan and that she was a little willful, but … how could she kill someone in public?
Mo Yunxian looked at the leather whip in her hand and came to her senses. She had not really used any strength just now. How had the old man died?
"What does it have to do with me? I did not kill him. I did not use any strength at all. Perhaps he was pretending to be dead. I merely flung him lightly. How could he die … "Mo Yunxian's face was full of impatience. In addition, her injuries were aching and itching. She did not want to linger here for even a moment longer.
Moreover, she really didn't have the intention to kill the old man. She was just trying to scare him. Who knew that he would die so mysteriously.
The surrounding citizens watched as three lives were lost before their eyes. When they saw Mo Yunxian's arrogant manner, they could not help but gossip.
General Mo had a high status in the hearts of the citizens. He had made many military contributions and could be said to be a great hero in the hearts of the Eternal Dynasty's citizens. But he only had one daughter. Many citizens secretly shook their heads.
Although Mo Yunxian was rarely in the Imperial City, her spoiled and willful reputation had long spread among the citizens.
Now, many people had truly witnessed Mo Yunxian's character.
Three lives had been lost just like that. Mo Yunxian had even killed one of them with her own hands. With so many eyes watching, not only did she quibble, but she also tried to slander her.
Mo You vaguely sensed that something was wrong. But before he could recover his wits, a group of soldiers suddenly emerged from the noisy crowd.
"What happened here?" The leader of the soldiers frowned slightly as he looked at the three people lying on the ground.
Mo You was about to speak when Mo Yunxian lost all her patience.
"You came at the right time. These three unruly people popped out of nowhere to cause trouble in front of us. Now they are pretending to be dead in order to extort us. Quickly arrest them." Mo Yunxian immediately spoke when she saw the soldiers approaching.
She was not sure about anything else, but she was very clear about how much strength she had used.
That little bit of strength was not enough to kill anyone. The three of them were probably pretending to be dead to extort them.
The soldiers recognized the young mistress, Mo Yunxian. They were puzzled when they saw that the other person was the Crown Prince's personal bodyguard, Mo You. However, they still went forward to examine the three people.
"Milord, these three people are indeed dead," a soldier reported after the inspection.
Upon hearing this, Mo Yunxian's gaze froze.
"Have you investigated clearly? They might have used some kind of method to fake their deaths. " Mo Yunxian frowned slightly. Although Mo You's subordinates had said that the three of them were dead, she had seen many ways of feigning death in her many years of cultivating outside. She had always thought that the three of them were faking their deaths.
"Miss Mo, these three people are indeed dead," the officer in charge said.
"Nonsense." Mo Yunxian did not believe it at all. She took a step forward and looked at the old man lying in the mess. Her eyes narrowed slightly.
"I don't believe that you can continue pretending." As she spoke, Mo Yunxian raised her hand and lashed out with her whip at the old man.
Mo Yunxian's attack shocked everyone around them. Even Mo You had not expected Mo Yunxian to be so rash.
