Chapter 185 The dispute with Lingyu

Author: A forget-me-not grass

The two were in a stalemate for a long time, staring at each other with some embarrassment. Just when Bai Zhiqian wanted to speak to ease the atmosphere, Lingyu spoke first.

"Xiaoxue, do you know your guilt?" The tone was inhumane again, as cold as ever.

Is this another way of showing off to yourself?

This time, Bai Zhiqian did not defend herself. She lowered her head slightly and said, "I know I was wrong."

"Well, it's your first offender, so I won't care about it, but you must remember not to act recklessly just relying on the eldest lady's favor, let alone live up to her kindness." Lingyu scolded sternly.

"Yes, I understand." She naturally nodded obediently, but she also noticed that Lingyu was indeed loyal to the eldest lady, Xie Siling, and considered her almost all the time.

At least that's how it seems on the surface.

"As long as you know," Lingyu was very satisfied and continued, "But I see that you get along well with them. As long as you are more honest in the future, I will not treat you badly. Now is the time to employ people."

"Yes, but I..."

Bai Zhiqian didn't want to talk nonsense anymore. Time was urgent and she had to get more useful clues. She pretended to be hesitant and looked embarrassed.

"What's wrong?" Lingyu asked with a frown.

"I'm really curious about the monster that appeared last night." Bai Zhiqian asked. She actually wanted to know the eldest lady's attitude towards this matter through Lingyu.

Lingyu's expression changed slightly, and he hesitated and said, "Actually, there are some things I shouldn't tell you, but since you've asked me, there's no point in hiding it. You'll know it sooner or later."

"Many people know that the monster suddenly appeared in the city lord's mansion a few months ago. It looked like a pitch-black mass and seemed to have no fixed shape. However, its attack power was extremely strong and there was no countermeasure. Since its appearance,

Since then, countless guards and maids have died in its hands."

Thinking of those innocent lives sacrificed one by one like abandoned children.

Bai Zhiqian was angry and wanted to stimulate Lingyu, so she couldn't help but taunted, "I'm afraid they have been sucked dry."

Even now, she still clearly remembers the way she looked when she met Xiao He. He was just skin and bones. If she had been a moment later, I'm afraid not even the scum would be left.

Naturally, Lingyu didn't know what happened at that time, and she didn't understand the reason why Bai Zhiqian was suddenly angry, but she didn't get angry yet.

After a brief silence, she explained patiently, "Actually, it's not just humans, any life will be sucked by her. The stronger ones may still have a breath left, but the weak ones will die without a whole body."

"So?" Bai Zhiqian glanced at her and continued to sarcastically say, "Can you just ignore their lives and let the monster wreak havoc in the city lord's mansion? Is this how the noble lady behaves?"

"Shut up, there is nothing you can do to teach the young lady a lesson."

Unexpectedly, when Xie Siling was mentioned, Lingyu became excited. She pressed Bai Zhiqian's shoulders with both hands and gritted her teeth and said, "We have no choice. Their sacrifice is necessary, not to mention that since they sold their resources to the city lord

We own the house, and everything including life belongs to us."

"But before you tricked them into entering the house, you didn't tell them about the dangers. Otherwise, how could they sell themselves? I know they are homeless. How could they sell themselves unless they had no choice but to do so?"

"But..." Bai Zhiqian stared at her, without any intention of backing down, "How can you deserve to be the master of Ye Qiucheng when you waste so much human life? The City Lord's Mansion is supposed to protect everyone and the entire Ye Qiucheng, but you failed to do it.

The eldest lady didn’t even do it.”

"Shut up, you don't understand anything."

Xie Siling became even more angry, even hysterical. She angrily shouted, "Why do you humble beings deserve our protection? To be honest, it is our kindness to give you a meal."

Bai Zhiqian immediately revealed her cold eyes and said mockingly, "If the dignified Lord Lingyu, as the eldest lady's right-hand man, has this attitude, then I have always thought wrong. Everyone in the City Lord's Mansion is all the same, and no one is good."

"Including your eldest lady!"

"Go to hell." Bai Zhiqian's verbal offensive was effective. In anger, Lingyu actually slapped her out with a palm, hitting her directly in the abdomen.

Of course Bai Zhiqian could resist easily, but she deliberately gave up her strength and received a heavy blow. Of course she was not being abused, but had another purpose.

"puff!"

She fell heavily to the ground and vomited a large mouthful of blood from her mouth, looking very painful.

"Lord Lingyu, you can hit me or even kill me, but can you kill everyone in the City Lord's Mansion?"

Bai Zhiqian wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and showed a faint smile, "Even someone like me, who has just joined the government, knows so many things and has so many ideas, let alone them?"

"You are so careless about human life, I'm afraid you can't stop everyone from talking!"

Lingyu was silent for a long time, then suddenly squatted in front of Bai Zhiqian, stared at her and said, "You...who are you? You are definitely not an ordinary person."

"I'm just a miserable person who longs to find my sister, just like Xiao Zi who lost her best friend, Xiao He who lost her sister, and just like many people in this city lord's mansion who have lost their relatives and friends!"

Bai Zhiqian smiled and replied, "Besides, it was your eldest lady who kidnapped me personally, didn't she, Lord Lingyu?"

"you…"

Lingyu stared at her, as if she wanted to pry out something more, but after a long time, she could only sigh helplessly, showing a low expression.

"Yes, it is true that many people have lost their close relatives, even me. I have had many close friends in the City Lord's Mansion since I was a child, but they have disappeared one by one, even the eldest lady. None of us have lost anything.

Woolen cloth?"

"But is it because we don't want to take care of it? You think we don't care about human life, but have you ever thought that we have no way to take care of it?"

Lingyu helped Bai Zhiqian up and said coldly, "I...we have tried our best to protect everyone, and the eldest lady has done enough."

"But I didn't see your so-called protection!" Bai Zhiqian replied coldly, "I only saw the increasing number of victims, and I only saw the innocent lives sacrificed one after another."

"you…"

Lingyu gritted her teeth, obviously having something to hide, and she said sternly, "I told you, we have no choice, and besides, we have put in enough efforts, you don't understand anything."

"For the final victory, any sacrifice is worth it!"

Bai Zhiqian could see that Lingyu obviously had something else he didn't want to say, but she knew that she might not be able to force him to tell the truth easily.

However, she risked her identity being exposed this time, but not without success. Her suspicion became clearer. The monster was created by Xie Qianchou. In a sense, Xie Siling was just a victim.

But which victim may not be so innocent,

Bai Zhiqian couldn't help but sarcastically said, "Of course victory can be sacrificed, but why are the sacrifices always made for the humblest lives? It's obvious that... just living is already very difficult, why should they have to sacrifice?"

"I don't care what kind of plans you have, it's not a reason to treat their lives as nothing. What's more, if sacrifice is really needed and someone needs to take the lead..."

"Why can't those people be you?"
