Upon hearing this, the killer stabbed the knife into Yinxi's abdomen without hesitation. The latter's pupils shrank, and he tried his best to suppress the painful cry that escaped.
"It seems that you have decided to give up on him?" The killer slowly wiped the blood spattered on his hands and stared motionlessly at the Duke with a very bad expression across from him, as if to force him to admit, "Yinxi is your biological son. , have you really decided to give him up for an illegitimate child?"
"Dong, Duke, Grand, person——"
"You-" The Duke's hand pointing at him trembled slightly, and his breathing was heavy and rapid.
He looked at Yin Xi, who was already white and red, and for just a moment, he moved away hastily as if he had been splashed with boiling water.
That child——
The Duke tried hard to calm down his heavy breathing, and pressed the golden handle of the knife with his fingertips. He looked away fiercely in the embarrassing pain of Yinxi being pulled by her hair and pressing the wound.
"...I give up on him."
It wasn't until he said these words that the Duke finally got rid of his almost burning emotions. He looked at the wanton killer in front of him again, and the emotion on his face turned into a calmness that stated the facts. He repeated word for word: "I give up Yin Xi." .”
"This way you will be satisfied!"
"Pfft hahahahahahahaha -" The killer was finally amused by his words, and even with his bleeding fingers, he covered his eyes and laughed out loud.
"Your Majesty Duke, this has nothing to do with my dissatisfaction." After an unknown amount of time, he stopped laughing and cast a cold, condescending gaze at the no longer young Duke, directly breaking through his last words. Laying a fig leaf, "Isn't this your choice?"
"I just - let you look directly into your dirty heart!"
"What on earth do you want?!" The Duke was furious, but this time, before he could make any more excuses, the killer's knife was ruthlessly taken out of Yin Xi's belly and turned to the other side.
"What do I want to do? Your Majesty, I should ask you this question——"
The killer looked down at him, showing unbearable disgust and malice, and asked coldly: "Three years ago, what were you thinking when you killed my father and kidnapped my mother?"
"My brother - he was the same age as your illegitimate child at that time! But you killed him! You killed him!"
After the seemingly tearing cry, the killer seemed to have lost all emotion. His black eyes completely reflected the Duke who was trying to avoid him, and he quietly turned the tip of the knife.
"Zheng——"
"who is it?!"
The tip of the knife that was broken by the stone made a final clang. In this suppressed moment, another figure fell on the rocks a step away, and the robe lifted up by the cold wind slowly followed the lazy sound. Deeply spread out.
"It seems it's a little late."
Yinxi, who also heard the sound, was suddenly startled, as if completely unbelievable, and raised her head with force.
is her.
Yin Xi curled her fingers and watched Xue Chu coming like a god, and was lost for a moment.
It was as if he had really been deprived of all the organs capable of producing sound, and he just grazed Xue Chu's beautiful and delicate robe with his blood-red eyes little by little, not daring to blink for a moment.
Are you here to save me?
Or, it’s another dream that’s too real…
Yinxi bit her lower lip, feeling a restless mood constantly grinding in her heart, stronger than ever before.
"Are you here to save people?"
The unbearable killer asked directly.
"Are you blind?" Xue Chu looked very calm, glanced at the Duke who seemed to be watching, and sneered, "What makes you ask such a question?"
Isn't it...
Yinxi's eyelashes trembled, feeling that the Sword of Damocles that had been pressing on her head finally fell, cutting off the last glimmer of life without any regrets.
"Tsk," Xue Chu, who had been observing him, deepened his eyes, and at this moment, he finally wanted to sigh.
"I am indeed here to save people," Xuechu said in a much more serious tone, not wanting to let the child who had not yet been reached wither away.
"Yinxi, look at me."
"What……?"
Yin Xi, who looked dazed, suppressed his breathing, feeling as if he was trapped in some kind of confusion.
He didn't know how he raised his head, didn't know when Xue Chu came to him, or even how he crushed his finger bones to restrain his desire to touch——
After just a moment of hesitation, the wounds on his body that were so bloody that they were so bloody that they were almost ferocious were surrounded by an extremely warm aura.
No need for him to struggle, no need for him to explain, no need for him to beg like a dog wagging his tail.
Just like that, he was put down and protected in his arms.
He felt like... he was about to be completely crushed.
"Don't you know it hurts?" Xue Chu gently used demon power to heal the wound, leaned forward and put his arms around Yin Xi's waist, directly hugging the fragile young man.
"You're all here...if there's anything else you want to do, just mention it."
"Anything is okay?" Yinxi subconsciously hugged Xuechu's slender neck, her tone still filled with uncertainty.
"Anything is fine."
Xuechu knocked on the young man's forehead, looked down at the eyes that were clearly filled with desire but were still dodging, and added lightly: "After doing this, you will follow me from now on."
"Your Excellency..." Keenly aware that things were out of control, the Duke, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, gave the suppressed killer a hard look and shifted his gaze to Xue Chu, who was holding Yin Xi, "Thank you for saving me. The child is just..."
"Ah, there is still someone who has not been dealt with," Xuechu finally raised his eyes, his dark pupils looking extremely deep at this time, "There is no need to say thank you."
"The people I save will not have a second destination."
Hearing this, Yinxi grabbed her sleeves tightly.
Xuechu's eyes drooped slightly, and his behavior was scornful, as if he could not see the extremely dark expression of the Duke opposite him. He hugged Yinxi into his arms again, "Have you not thought about it yet?"
She seemed to be serious, and it was never so clear to Eun-hee who was being favored like this for the first time.
But precisely because of this, I don't want to cause her any possible trouble...
So he turned away and chose silence again.
"You don't want to be chosen as a bargaining chip, do you?" Xuechu pretended not to see the other party's sour and unspeakable emotions, raised her finger to her lips, and directly stopped Yinxi from wanting to say anything else, "As long as Just say it.”
She raised the corners of her lips, glanced sideways at the two people who were afraid and had been suppressing silence, and her expression slowly became serious, "This is the last time."
Xue Chu paused, as if giving an ultimatum.
"Do not disappoint me."
