C38 The Sparrow Died
After Ye Ming died, the barrier formation he set up outside the courtyard automatically disappeared. The sound of Lin Yue digging earth attracted the attention of the guards.
"It's me, I'm training my body. It's nothing much, you guys have worked hard." Lin Yue replied.
"Oh, it's good that you're fine. It's not hard. I'm doing my job." When the guard heard his voice, he felt relieved.
Lin Mentor had a very high position in Qin Zheng Prefecture. The Second Young Master had specifically instructed him to ensure his safety. Otherwise, he would be questioning them.
After listening to the guard walk away, Lin Yue continued to fill the soil.
When dawn broke, the large pit in the courtyard was finally filled up. At this moment, the sky was filled with lightning and thunder. It was actually going to rain.
"That's great!" Lin Yue smiled slightly and returned to his room to treat his injuries.
Not long after, a heavy rain began to pour, wiping away all traces of the battle in the courtyard.
The heavy rain made people's mood sink.
Ye Han's mind had been restless the whole night, and coupled with the rain, it made him even more upset.
"It's fine. Big Brother's cultivation base is profound. Assassinating Lin Yue isn't as fun as playing around." Ye Han comforted himself, "He must have killed Lin Yue and Lin Tian."
It was only until the afternoon rain stopped that Ye Ming still did not appear.
He could not sit still anymore and sent people out to inquire about the situation.
When he heard that Spring Apricot had delivered food to Lin Yue today, his entire face turned ashen.
Before Ye Ming left, the first target of the assassination was Lin Yue.
Haruka had given Lin Yue food today, which meant that Lin Yue was still alive, but Ye Ming had not returned. This was a very bad sign.
"Even if the assassination fails, it shouldn't be a problem for him to escape. Perhaps Big Brother had an urgent matter and changed his mind midway, so he went to do something else." Ye Han kept comforting himself.
Three days passed in a flash, but Ye Ming still did not hear anything from him.
"How could this be?" Qin Gaang's face darkened.
Ye Ming's arrival had given him a lot of confidence.
Initially, he thought that he could rely on Ye Ming to get rid of some eyesore and suppress Qin Zheng's arrogance, but he didn't expect Ye Ming to disappear from the face of the earth.
"I am also very puzzled. Even if there is an emergency, big brother will still greet me." Ye Han was so anxious that he almost cried.
Currently, he and Ye Ming were the only ones left in the Ye Family. If Ye Ming also met with misfortune, he didn't know what to do.
"In the entire Royal City of Qin Family, only Star-treading Stage warriors can kill Ye Ming with ease." Qin Gaang said slowly.
Ye Han nodded. Although he didn't want to believe it, the signs indicated that Ye Ming was in trouble.
Only Star-treading Stage warriors could put Ye Ming in such a situation.
"Could it be that Lin Yue is protected by a Star-treading Stage warrior?" After saying that, Ye Han realized that this was a stupid question.
They had a clear understanding of Lin Yue's background, and even checked his parents' identities. He was indeed a servant, and there definitely wouldn't be a Star-treading Stage warrior protecting him.
If that was the case, then there was only one possibility left, and that was that there was a Star-treading Stage expert guarding Qin Zheng's mansion. When Ye Ming sneaked into the mansion, he was discovered, and was killed or captured alive.
"Qin Yue!" The two of them looked at each other and spoke at the same time.
Among the five commanders of Qin Family, the top three were all Star-treading Stage warriors, but the only one who could help Qin Zheng was his father-in-law, Qin Yue.
Ye Han felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar. If that was really the case, Ye Ming would certainly die.
"What should we do?" Ye Han felt powerless.
"Let's wait quietly. If there is no news from Ye Ming in three days, we can only think of a way to deal with the worst-case scenario." Qin Gaang was also very annoyed.
"Then I will continue to send people to inquire. I hope Big Brother is fine." Ye Han nodded and left.
Qin Gaang closed his eyes slightly and rubbed the space between his eyebrows. These past few years, things had been really bad.
"Go and tell Chiang Shi that I will prepare wine for him tomorrow." Qin Gaang called in a confidant and instructed him in a low voice.
Now that he no longer had any hope for Ye Ming, he could only think of another way.
A ninth level Pulse Opening Stage warrior actually didn't have any effect at all, and disappeared without a trace. What a pity.
He was extremely depressed, so he called a person at the door.
"How is the matter that I asked you to do?" Qin Gaang asked.
"Young master, in the name of recruiting female attendants, I found three beautiful virgins and secretly arranged them to be in the room." The servant hastily said.
"Well done, bring the most beautiful one here." Qin Gaang threw out a large ingot of gold.
"Thank you, young master!" The servant was overjoyed and put away the gold. After respectfully kowtowing, he walked out.
Not long later, the door was opened again and a girl entered.
This person had been around for 28 years. His hair was tied up and his face was shaped like melon seeds. His face was so tender that it could be squeezed out of water. He looked at Qin Gaang timidly.
"Greetings, young master." Only now did the girl remember the servant's instructions, and she hurriedly knelt on the ground.
"What's your name?" Qin Gaang saw her respectful and fearful look, and he felt very comfortable in his heart.
"This servant is Kun Er." The girl hastily said.
"Come here." Qin Gaang waved his left hand at her.

Kun Er hesitated for a moment, then slowly crawled over.
Qin Gaang lifted Kun Er's chin. She had delicate features and looked pitiful. She was indeed a beauty.
He gently rubbed Kun Er's smooth face and moved his hand downwards.
Kun Er's body trembled. She did not struggle.
When she came to Royal City of Qin Family to be a maid, she had already thought that such a thing would happen.
Moreover, the other party was the young master of Qin Family. If he could win his heart, even if he couldn't become his concubine in the future, at least he wouldn't have to worry about wealth and fortune.
It wasn't impossible for a sparrow to become a phoenix.
"Kun Er, tell me, in the entire Royal City of Qin Family, who will be the next king of Qin?" Qin Gaang asked in a low voice, but his hand did not stop.
"Of course it's you, young master. No one else is qualified except you." Kun Er said in a flattering manner.
Qin Gaang smiled and was very satisfied.
"Then tell me, why do I have such qualifications?" Qin Gaang's hands kept moving.
After a while, Kun Er's cheeks turned red, and her eyes became blurred. She could not help but make some sounds that could stir one's heart and soul.
"The eldest young master is the eldest son of the Qin Family. According to the rules, he should also inherit the throne. Moreover, you are handsome and unrestrained. You have both civil and military skills, and you have a benevolent heart. There is no one who doesn't admire you. If you don't become the king of Qin, who else has the right?" Kun'er said with a smile.
"Not bad, not bad. Kun'er, you're really not bad." Qin Gaang smiled very happily. "I am currently considering whether I should take you as my concubine."
At this moment, Qin Gaang's right hand appeared from his long sleeve. To be precise, it should be an iron claw.
His right hand had been crippled, so his heart was a little unnatural. Usually, he would hide the iron claw in his sleeve.
He felt pretty good just now. He wanted to use both hands to experience it. When he revealed the iron claw, he remembered that he couldn't do it.
Kun Er looked at the cold black iron claw, and fear appeared in her eyes. She subconsciously retreated.
"Why? Do you dislike me?" Qin Gaang's pride seemed to have been smashed by a heavy hammer. A trace of ferociousness appeared in his eyes.
Kun Er was shocked, and subconsciously crossed her arms in front of her as she retreated.
"Put your hands down!" Qin Gaang ordered.
"Eldest Young Master, this servant is still... still a virgin." Kun Er's face turned red. She had already woken up from the panic when she saw the iron claw.
She was very clear that she would not be able to escape today.
She was a little surprised that the eldest young master was disabled, but no matter what, he was the eldest son of the Qin Family, the future heir of the Duke of Qin. It was better to please him.
However, Qin Gaang had already been angered by the look in her eyes. He sneered and roughly grabbed her.
The servants outside the door could only hear the continuous screams and begging for mercy, but they didn't dare to go in.
If they disturbed Qin Gaang at this time, their heads would definitely move.
The Eldest Young Master had never set up any restrictions in this room, allowing the sounds to drift out. No one knew what he was thinking.
All these years, there were no less than ten beautiful Maidservant maids who had been killed by him.
Miserable screams rang out continuously, making people tremble in fear.
"Someone come!" A quarter of an hour later, Qin Gaang shouted.
"Young master." The servant guarding the door hurriedly opened the door and looked at Kun Er, who was lying on the ground with wounds all over her body. A trace of pity flashed across his eyes.
Kun'er was lying there, her clothes in a mess scattered to the side. She no longer had any life left.
"Get rid of her." Qin Zheng said coldly while his upper body was naked.
"Yes." The servant quickly took out a blanket familiarly and wrapped Kun'er up. Then, he wiped away the blood on the ground and carried Kun'er out.
Qin Zheng sat on the chair and looked at Iron Claw. Boundless resentment surged in his eyes.
Kun'er's gaze at Iron Claw at that moment touched his sensitive self-esteem.
One. A lowly servant who was as lowly as an ant actually dared to despise him. This caused him to lose control of his emotions, causing Kun'er to die.
"Parents, relatives? Hmph! To think that not a single person would be willing to offer up their right hand to me! What kind of family is this?!" Lin Yue used his iron claw to smash the table in front of him, smashing the top grade mahogany table in half from the middle!"
Ever since his right hand froze to death, he went to ask Hua Buqun about the Godly Doctor and was told that he could use his family's hand to change it. Otherwise, he could only use a fake hand, which was an iron claw.
He went to ask his family members with hope, but they were all rejected.
In fact, if Qin Gaang had not taken the initiative to ask, perhaps it would have been better. If he had asked, only an idiot would be willing to give his right hand to him.
"Humans are not for themselves. Heaven will punish and destroy the earth. In this world, what kind of familial love is there? It was all fake. Only the cultivation base and the power in his hands were real. True!" A cold look emerged in Qin Zheng's eyes. He no longer looked like a hedonistic son of a rich family.
He had already made up his mind to change his previous hedonistic personality. He wanted to recuperate and temper his personality.
Because after this incident, Royal Father would surely be even more disappointed in him.
Plus, his right hand had been crippled, and his image was even worse. If he still acted as unreliable as before, then the chances of him getting the inheritance of the Duke of Qin would be even lower.
"Old thing, why didn't you die earlier?" Qin Gaang suddenly hated the king of Qin, Qin Xiong, "If you had died earlier, I would have inherited the throne a long time ago. There wouldn't have been so many things to do. It would have been a lot of trouble if you had delayed it!"
