The General's Daughter Doesn't Want to Get Married!-Chapter 137: Not a Delusion

The skin from her face was removed little by little, and what awaited Xia Ruoling was not Shah Jumman, the wealthiest merchant of the Southern Kingdom, but a young man in his twenties, who resembled the same as Shen Xia, her son.

"Let me introduce myself again, I’m Yun Shu, Lord of the State of Yun and son of Yun Xuan, King Zhennan."

’Yun Shu? That crazy mad dog of the Empire? How could it be possible?! He actually disguised and deceived me!’

Seeing the horrified face of Xia Ruoling, Yun Shu grinned in satisfaction. Surely, that must’ve come to her as a great shock?

Ah! It seems I’m becoming more sadistic as of late... well, it can’t be helped since I feel like teasing the Young Man husband of mine who blushes in every word I say, guess I really need to restrain myself!

Yun Shu picked up the glass of wine as she looked inside for a moment, before looking back at her.

"See this cup? You must have been wondering how it is that you were the one who got poisoned even if you checked it through and found nothing?" Yun Shu said in a low voice as she moved the cup in front of Xia Rouling.

"Too bad to say it now, but the poison residing in my heart wouldn’t just go away, as you can see! After all the suffering you put him through, dying like this would be too easy, isn’t it?"

"You, you, you! Coughhh! You, you’ll never be able to get what you want! So what if you killed me and my lackeys, do you think you would be able to save the Empire?! In your dreams!" Xia Ruoling spat out a mouth full of blood on Yun Shu’s face in anger, but the other side didn’t seem to be swayed at all.

"Hmm, are you talking about the upcoming war that you guys are planning on?" Yun Shu showed a worried expression as she pretended to get all gloomy, but just as she looked at Xia Ruoling, she grinned widely.

"...! How did you?!" Xia Ruoling was shocked to hear that, but she became even more shocked to see the evil smirk on her face.

’This guy! Did he know everything from the beginning? Were we playing at his hands till now?!’

He’s even more terrifying than the Demon Lord himself! Damn it!

"You think I came here without any plan or preparation? You must think I’m naive and stupid, that I’m a young star who doesn’t know anything around the world." Yun Shu stood up as her expression turned cold.

"T—!" Xia Ruoling wanted to curse out at Yun Shu again, however, the moment she opened her mouth, a stinging pain caught around her throat, as her voice didn’t come out.

"Oh, looks like the poison has started taking effect. Don’t worry, you won’t be treated badly in our special cell made for high ranking prisoners!" Yun Shu looked very calm and poised, acting as if nothing happened, she was just slightly exhausted after taking a stroll around the flower garden.

"Ah! Ahh! Ahhh!" Xia Rouling tried to scream in horror as she tried to grab Yun Shu’s hem of clothes, however, before she could do that, her hands crunched up in pain.

’W-what is this? What’s happening to me?’

The flesh around her beautiful and long fingers started to melt down little by little, along with unbearable pain. The misery didn’t end here, since her other body parts and her face also started to show the same symptoms.

"Wow! Look at how they are melting down, it’s truly such an amazing sight to see! No, no! Don’t worry though, because you won’t die with just this much! The skin and flesh will melt down and rot away along with that stench, however, new flesh will grow in your body, and then rot again, then grow again. I don’t know how long it will continue, but dying isn’t an option! You won’t die no matter what you do, so suffer the pain of hell while you are still alive, just like you tortured my lover."

Xia Ruoling gasped as she saw the expression Yun Shu had on her face, she never thought a human could actually have such an expression.

At this moment, Xia Ruoling knew only one thing, that she was done for.

No one can save her, not even Yama the king of hell could save her from this devil!

’Should I keep her? Or should I just kill her for once and all?’

Because of this woman, Bai Yunxian had to suffer a lot, she couldn’t feel satisfied by doing anything to this woman, Yun Shu was in a dilemma on what to do.

Xia Ruoling collapsed on the floor, as Yun Shu was standing still. After a long time, she moved her hand, as if preparing to strike the woman. Just as she was about to raise her hand, a soft but firm hand grabbed into hers, as she could hear a soft voice calling out to her which reached her soul.

"My Lord."

Yun Shu stopped in her tracks instinctively, before she turned around like a flash of lightning. She couldn’t believe what she was seeing just now.

’Am I hallucinating right now? Or am I just deluding myself into thinking it’s him?’

Right after the ambush, the plan was that Chi Yan would take Bai Yunxian out safely and escort him to the Estate. After that, Yun Shu will take care of all the dirty deals around here, as well as join the war and fight till everything goes back to their place.

What was he doing here?

"My Lord, it’s not a delusion, nor are you hallucinating right now. Look this way and see. It’s me, Bai Yunxian, standing in front of you." He said as he understood Yun Shu’s feelings and thoughts right away, as if they were two people in one soul, one body.
