Chu Qianli's guard instantly intensified.
It wasn't that she didn't trust Yu Xing, but rather that she didn't trust the people around Feng Yexuan, such as Feng Ling.
Feng Ling understood hypnosis. If Yu Xing had already been hypnotized, then the current Yu Xing was in great danger.
"Miss Chu, why are you guarding against me?" Yu Xing seemed to have sobered up a little.
Looking at Chu Qianli's feet, she said hoarsely, "Miss Chu, I didn't disappear on purpose, I was kidnapped."
"Kidnapped?" Chu Qianli's brow furrowed. "By whom?"
"A woman... who uses poison."
Yu Xing took another step forward, her hand still behind her back, never bringing it out.
One didn't know what was behind her.
Such a night, such a Yu Xing, such actions, made Chu Qianli's alarm bells ring loudly.
"Miss Chu, are you suspecting me?"
Yu Xing suddenly seemed a little out of control, rushing forward quickly: "Miss Chu, I've been poisoned, please save me."
"Yu Xing, it's not that I won't save you, but I suspect you are trapped by an illusion."
Chu Qianli's face remained expressionless.
Yu Xing looked pained, uneasy, even panicked: "They want to kill me!"
"They?" Then it wasn't just about a woman who used poison.
"Who are 'they' referring to?"
"They are referring to... you!"
Yu Xing's eyes suddenly changed, and after a scream, she leaped up and lunged at Chu Qianli.
Chu Qianli had been prepared. Although Yu Xing's martial arts were formidable, her own martial arts were no less than Yu Xing's.
Moreover, she had long been guarding against Yu Xing.
Yu Xing's lunge could not harm her at all.
"Yu Xing, calm down, I will help you..."
Unexpectedly, Yu Xing suddenly cried out: "Chu Qianli, why do you want to kill me?"
"Yu Xing?" By the time Chu Qianli realized something was wrong, she finally saw clearly what Yu Xing was holding.
A short knife!
But now, this short knife was plunged into Yu Xing herself!
Into her heart.
"Chu Qianli wants to kill me, Your Highness, Your Highness save me... Ah!"
After a scream, Yu Xing fell into a pool of blood.
That scream had exhausted her last bit of strength.
"Yu Xing!" Chu Qianli quickly went over to check her injuries.
Upon seeing them, her face instantly turned ashen!
The knife was lodged in her heart, damaging it beyond any hope of recovery, even for an immortal.
"What happened?" Ding Chen, hearing the commotion, rushed over immediately.
He seemed to have heard Yu Xing's voice just now?
Had Yu Xing really returned?
But why would she say that Miss Chu wanted to kill her?
Walking behind Ding Chen was Feng Yexuan, who had just changed his clothes.
"Yu Xing!" Ding Chen finally saw clearly who was lying in the pool of blood.
His face changed drastically, and he rushed over, shoving Chu Qianli aside: "Yu Xing!"
Chu Qianli, caught off guard, was pushed forcefully by him. Her footing faltered, and she stumbled straight towards the ground.
However, she didn't fall to the ground. Instead, she landed in a slightly chilled embrace.
"What's going on?" Feng Yexuan helped her up.
"Yu Xing tried to assassinate me." Chu Qianli's expression was grim.
Feng Yexuan looked at her hand, which was still trembling.
For some reason, he instinctively took her hand.
It was ice-cold!
"Your Highness!" Ding Chen's entire body tensed, trembling all over.
He picked up Yu Xing, looked back at Feng Yexuan, and gritted his teeth: "Yu Xing was killed by her!"
