Enchantress Amongst Alchemists: Ghost King’s Concubine

Chapter 673 – Xiao Feng and Yao Yun Qing’s Crisis Part 4

Zi Shao smiled. She once crippled her cultivation to save Jing Er. Now, she didn’t want him to suffer from the slightest pain anymore…

“Alright, since that’s the case, Wu Chen, how about we make a trip to the Yao family after sending my parents to Realmless? I’ve been feeling uneasy whenever I think about them, like something has happened to them…”

Mu Ru Yue furrowed her brows tightly. Her uneasiness continued to intensify until her heart started trembling.

It looked like she needed to make a trip to the Yao family as soon as possible.

“Young mistress, it is time for your meal.”

Yao Yun Qing was in the fragrant pavillion, looking lifelessly outside when a maid servant’s voice was heard. Her expression turned grim instantly and raging flames of fury surged in her heart as she yelled, “You are to tell my second uncle that I, Yao Yun Qing, won’t concede to them!”

The door was suddenly kicked open once she said that.

A middle-aged man in an embroidered robe stood at the entrance. His build was average, but you could say his face was above average. His eyes, yet, were filled with a sinister, ruthless glint of light as he looked coldly at the girl sitting at the window.

“Yun Qing, is it really worth doing this for a man?”

Flames of fury immediately erupted in Yao Yun Qing’s heart, but she suppressed it to coldly reply, “Second Uncle, I didn’t expect that you would make use of how grandfather is severely ill to summon me back urgently. This time, you could say I walked myself right into a trap. But let me tell you this. You should give up on trying to make me marry Gong Xin (meaningless) from the Gong family!”  

Yao Lin (Handsome Rain) smirked sinisterly before commenting, “Yao Yun Qing, the old man is severely ill now so he can’t help you at all. Your parents aren’t home either, so I’m the only one in the family who can make decisions! Moreover, the elders of the Yao family have already agreed to my plan. So what can the disagreeing minority do? You, as a girl, can’t be the head of our Yao family. I really don’t know what weird medicine the head ate before he passed the family’s authority seal to you, a young, silly girl!”

Yao Yun Qing’s expression gradually darkened. “Second uncle, what if… I am adamant in resisting you? I, Yao Yun Qing, am already Xiao Feng’s wife and we had undergone sexual intercourse. Do you still want to marry me to someone else?” she said coldly.

Yao Lin wasn’t angered by her response as he had already predicted it. With a sneer, he sinisterly replied, “Yun Qing, second uncle doesn’t have a choice in this. Gong Xin is a core disciple of the Medicine Sect and a disciple of an alchemist. If you marry him, you will definitely receive countless benefits. Furthermore, he already fancied you long ago. He swore that, if he could marry you, he would supply our Yao family with ten years worth of pills. That’s ten years of pills! Aren’t you a member of the Yao family? As a member of the Yao family, it’s only right that you make sacrifices for the family. I doubt that you think otherwise…”

‘As a member of the Yao family, it’s only right that I make sacrifices for the family?’

Yao Yun Qing couldn’t help but burst out laughing upon hearing what he said. She replied, “Second uncle, is this truly for the benefit of the Yao family and not just you instead? I, Yao Yun Qing, would rather die than marry him!”

Yao Lin’s expression darkened . He shook his sleeves firmly and glared ferociously at the girl’s beautiful face. He then narrowed his eyes slightly, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.

‘I didn’t expect this little girl to be so unamenable to reason. It’s her blessing to marry the Gong family’s Gong Xin. She really doesn’t know what’s best for her!’
