"Whos there? Come out!" The man in white suddenly sensed someone, he shouted towards the direction of a peach tree on his left, and with a flick of his hand, a leaf flew rapidly forward.

  Yan Xijun, hiding behind the tree, heard that things had been discovered and wanted to slip away. A leaf came flying towards her face, scaring her into bending down to dodge. Before she could recover from the shock, a pair of large hands had already grasped her neck, rendering her immobile.

  She was walking well in the peach forest, when she suddenly heard a faint voice coming from afar. Her rationality told her not to pay attention to such palace gossip, but eventually she couldnt help but follow the sound out of curiosity.

  Parting the peach tree leaves in front of her eyes, she saw a tall and straight white figure at a glance. The white clothes and black hair, with long black hair loosely tied behind his back with a white silk ribbon, made him look like an immortal from above.

  Although his appearance was unclear, it could be felt that the white-clothed man in front of him exuded a gloomy and resentful aura.

  A woman in a green dress knelt on the ground, listening to their conversation, and it was another shady conspiracy that could not be exposed.

  "What did you all hear? Uh..."

  Yan Xijun came back to her senses, raised her eyes and looked at the white-clothed man in front of her. A beautiful face appeared at the corner of her eye, with a clear-cut handsome face, a pair of straight eyebrows that reached his temples, narrow peach blossom eyes slightly closed, thin lips with a faint glow. Seeing him looking at her with a gloomy face, his eyes flashed with a soft and cold light.

  The man in white was apparently also unexpected that the eavesdropper turned out to be such a young and beautiful woman, with skin as smooth as jade, eyes like autumn water, cherry lips, and black pupils flashing a hint of panic.

  Yan Xijun tightly closed her cherry lips. At this time, saying anything was useless. She had heard something she shouldnt have, and now she was also at someone elses mercy.

  The man in white robes withdrew his divine thoughts, seeing Yan Xikun speechless, his large hand still not loosening, still pinching Yan Xikuns throat, only needing a slight force to pinch off her head. He asked with a gloomy face: "Who are you? How long have you been eavesdropping?"

  Yan Xijun gradually felt short of breath, and in order to save her life, she forced out a few words from between her teeth: "I am Xiunu!"

  "Beautiful girl?"

  The man in white clothes frowned, and his eyes flashed with a hint of relaxation. He loosened his hand and threw away Yan Xijun, looking down at her from above, saying coldly: "You shouldnt have eavesdropped on our conversation, you should die!" As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly stretched out his palm to slap Yan Xijuns head, intending to kill her with one palm. Those who knew this secret could not be left alive.

  "Spare me, sir! I am the fourth sister of the empress!"

  In desperation, Yan Xikun couldnt help but exclaim out loud. At this time, if she didnt reveal her identity, she would surely die, and she didnt want to die for no reason. She still had many attachments to this world.

  "Queen...?"

  Yan Xijuns words made the white-clothed man pause, and he quickly withdrew his hand. He slightly furrowed his brow and looked at Yan Xijun with a complex expression on his face. Then, his handsome face returned to its usual calm and cold demeanor, and he said in a gloomy tone: "Even if she is the fourth sister of the empress, what does it matter? Kill without pardon!"

  "Grandfather, no!"

  Yan Xijun had already accepted his fate at this time, and survival was hopeless, so he gave up. Suddenly, a voice came over, and it was the green-robed woman who had gotten up and rushed over.

  The words of the woman in green made the man in white pause again, and he looked up at her with a puzzled expression.

  The woman in blue shook her head, "Sir, she is a person of Yan Hou, cant be killed. Killing her will leave many disadvantages. Leaving her may be useful in the future."

  The man in white clothes stared at Yan Xijun with a cold gaze, and after a brief silence, he lightly opened his thin lips and said: "Very well, since you are the emperors sister-in-law, I dont need to be polite to you either."

  A man in white clothes took out a small white bottle from his bosom, poured out a black pill, and with lightning-fast movements, pinched open Yan Xijuns small mouth. With a flick of his wrist, the pill was thrown into her mouth, then he followed the trajectory down her throat, and the pill smoothly entered her belly.

  "What did you give me to eat?" The white-clothed mans action scared Yan Xijun, who immediately fell to the ground, staring at him with wide eyes in terror.

  "Is it poison?" Yan Xijun asked, seeing the white-clothed man remain silent, his eyes fixed intently on her.

  "Women, dont be too clever!" The man in white clothes said lightly with a slight curl of his lips. He stretched out his hand to pick up a delicate flower petal that had fallen on Yan Xijuns hair, and gently rubbed it between his fingers. The flower petal disappeared without a trace in his hand.

  "Do you know?" The man in white squatted down, stretched out his pale hand and gently patted Yan Xiu Juns cheek, with a face full of regret: "Women who are too clever often dont invite peoples liking."

  "Whats it to you even if Im not likable?"

  Yan Xijun responded coldly, and at this time she had recovered from her fright, slowly calming down, and was no longer as afraid as before.

  Her words apparently enraged the man in white, who saw his eyes turn cold, and a hint of cold killing intent flashed across his pupils.

  "Its none of your business," the man in white slowly crouched down, extending his slender fingers to gently lift Yan Xiu Juns chin, his thin lips curling into a cold smile as he said, "Do you know how I deal with people who are useless to me?"

  Yan Xijun was not stupid, and she was also a clever woman. Her sharp eyes caught the murderous intent in his eyes. Suddenly, she didnt want to die like this, so she made a desperate gamble, who knows, maybe a miracle would appear.

  She summoned up courage from somewhere, jumped up and pounced on the man in white, took out the jade hairpin from her hair, grasped it tightly in her palm, and stabbed it fiercely into his chest, gritting her teeth and saying: "Go die, you vicious devil!"

  "Be careful, sir!" The woman in green clothing couldnt help but loudly exclaim, and she hastily dodged to the side.

  "You think you can kill me? Dream on!" The man in white sneered, easily dodging Yan Xijuns attack and grasping her hand. With a swift twist, there was a crisp cracking sound of bones breaking.

  Yan Xijun was in so much pain that she broke out in a cold sweat, and her hand holding the jade hairpin suddenly went limp, causing the hairpin to fall to the ground.

  "How dare you launch a sneak attack on me? Have you eaten leopard gall?"

  The man in white robes sternly rebuked him, his icy gaze fixed on Yan Xijun.

  "Hmph, you despicable and sinister little man!" Yan Xijun, although in pain and wanting to kill the person in front of her, lifted her head stubbornly and let out a cold hum.

  "Am I despicable?"

  "You even resort to threatening me, a weak woman, with poison. Isnt that despicable?"

  "Who allowed you to eavesdrop on our conversation!" The man in white robes said coldly, secretly exerting the power in his hand, and with another grasp, Yan Xijuns wrist, which had just been broken by him, was reconnected.

  "You damn thing!" Yan Xijun cursed in pain, glaring with both eyes and scolding, while the other hand reached up to her hair to take out another jade pin.

  This white-clothed man looks like an immortal in exile, but he actually did such a despicable and sinister thing.

  "How dare you be so dishonest and refuse to accept your lesson!" The man in white clothes quickly grasped her hand, his large hands holding down both of hers, not allowing her to move at all.

  "Kill me then!" Yan Xijun stamped her foot in hatred, unable to survive, couldnt she even ask for death?

  The man in white stared at her for a moment, then smiled evilly and said with deep meaning: "Ive changed my mind, I suddenly dont want to kill you, keeping you might still be useful!"

  Yan Xijun looked at his sly smile and knew something was wrong. "What do you want?"

  "Ill tell you later, Im sure well meet again soon!" The man in white said, and then he flew away, leaving abruptly.
