Chapter 229: Blood Rain in the Qing Palace, Ye Family’s Head Sacrifice (2)
Xiao Xie was also a tall man, but at this moment, Ye Dingzhi grabbed his collar and held him in the air. His lower body was dripping with something, and he couldn't tell if it was urine or the wine and vegetable soup on the table...
"Yingxian, save me! Yingxian...save me..."
"Ye Dingzhi... Ye Dingzhi, you can't kill me! I'm a prince, if you kill me you'll die too!"
"It wasn't me who wanted to kill your father Ye Yu. I was also following the orders of my father, the Emperor!"
"Ye Dingzhi...as long as you don't kill me, I'll give you everything you want! Everything...please..."
Xiao Xie howled with his eyes closed, becoming more and more incoherent. He just didn't dare to look directly into Ye Dingzhi's eyes, those eyes that were seeking death and chasing after souls!
“Hehehe, it’s too late… Xiao Xie, no matter who harmed our Ye family, they will die in the end!”
"No matter you, Zhuoqing, or Xiao Chongjing! No one can save you now!"
Ye Dingzhi held Xiao Xie in his arms, his voice was bone-chilling, and he almost squeezed out these two sentences from between his teeth!
His internal energy surged out uncontrollably, causing the curtains and draperies in the entire back hall to rustle.
As the wind surged, flames also shot up from the ground, gradually climbing onto the corpses of the wandering Jianghu people, and then climbing up the clothes of the corpses to the gauze curtains...
The sword strike by Ye Dingzhi just now shattered the table, causing the candle on the table to fall to the side and ignite the gauze curtain.
The fire spread rapidly and with the help of strong liquor, in just a few breaths, half of the back hall was engulfed in flames!
The bodies of the few Jianghu wanderers who had just been there started to burn as well, and the entire back hall was filled with the stench of burnt flesh...
The Zhenwu sword blade reflected Ye Dingzhi's red face and almost crazy eyes. Now he only needed one sword to take off the dog head of his blood enemy!
At this moment, a thin figure rushed in from the back hall...
"Let my master go, cough... Ye Dingzhi, you killed me, let me die in his place!"
It was Ying Xian who had just fainted. She actually stumbled into the back hall with her seriously injured body.
"Yingxian... Yingxian, run away! You are no match for him! Go away... quickly..."
Xiao Xie opened his eyes upon hearing the sound, and seeing the broken sword on Ying Xian's chest and the blood stains on his mouth and nose, he roared, but before he could finish the second half of his sentence, no more sound came out of his throat...
"die!"
Ye Dingzhi swung the Zhenwu sword in his right hand, and blood shot up three feet high, spraying all over his face and body!
Xiao Xie's mouth was still opening and closing, but his head flew up, and then his sight fell rapidly...
Gulu!
The head rolled far away on the ground. Xiao Xie's last glance stopped at Ye Dingzhi. The young man with half of his body soaked in blood looked as terrifying as an Asura in the Avici Hell!
"Your Majesty!"
Ying Xian roared, her voice full of despair, and then she pounced on Xiao Xie's headless body!
"Your Majesty! Ye Dingzhi, I will kill you!"
Ying Xian's eyes turned blood red, and he fiercely pulled out the broken sword that was more than half a foot long from his ribs. With a stream of blood gushing out, Ying Xian picked up the broken sword and stabbed forward!
"Bah!"
The sound of a sword piercing through flesh and bone suddenly rang out!
Ying Xian groaned, and the broken sword, stained with blood, slowly slipped from his hand...
"My Lord..."
Ye Dingzhi turned his back, holding the Zhenwu sword in his hand, but the other end of the sword broke out from Ying Xian's back!
……
The fire in the back hall burned more and more fiercely, and Ye Dingzhi, covered in blood, disappeared in an instant before the Qingwang Mansion's servants and the royal guards arrived.
Disappearing along with him was the head of Qing Wang Xiao Xie...
Besides the bodies of four men and one woman, there were nine large characters written in blood on the wall in the middle of the back hall:
"The murderer is Ye Dingzhi of the Ye family!"
……
There were few pedestrians on Zhuque Street at midnight. The weather was already bitterly cold as the winter solstice was approaching, and the branches of the trees on both sides of the street were creaking with cold.
Not long after, a tall young man came from the direction of Prince Qing's Mansion, holding a black object in his hand, which was dripping with something.
The young man walked into an incense and candle shop. The owner of the shop was trustworthy and kept the lights on and waited for him.
The lights in the store were dim, and the old shopkeeper, who was almost asleep, was startled by the cold air when Ye Dingzhi pushed the door open!
"Hey, Master, you're so lucky to remember to come pick up this order! I'm almost going to bed!"
"Come, come, take it. You should finish burning the paper and offering incense as soon as possible and go back to rest..."
The old shopkeeper came out from inside, picked up the bundle of things in the corner of the container and handed it to Ye Dingzhi who was silent at the door.
At this moment, the old shopkeeper finally saw Ye Dingzhi's appearance clearly under the dim oil lamp.
His body was covered in almost solidified blood, soaking him from his face to his waist. What almost frightened the old man to death was the thing in Ye Dingzhi's hand!
A human head with dilated pupils and a gruesome death!
"Ah! Murder! Murder..."
The old shopkeeper felt that the hairs on his body almost bulged out his clothes. Just as he was shouting at the top of his voice, he saw Ye Dingzhi's cold and resentful eyes!
In an instant, the old shopkeeper shuddered all over and immediately shut up!
"Thank you, boss!"
Ye Dingzhi grabbed the bundle of incense, candles and yellow paper, stepped out of the door and headed towards East Street.
A trace of cold sweat trickled down the old shopkeeper's forehead. He reached out and touched his lower body, and a warm, fishy smell surged up...
……
General Ye Yu’s Mansion.
The weeds are overgrown and the north wind is blowing.
The door panels are mottled and moss has grown on the steps.
"Squeak!"
Ye Dingzhi pushed open the door of the general's mansion with his shoulder, and walked steadily to the main room of the general's mansion.
The clay basin where I burned paper the last time I came to Tianqi City is still there, filled with dust and fallen leaves.
Ye Dingzhi dragged out a table that was almost falling apart from the house, dusted it off, then pulled Xiao Xie's head from the ground and placed it upright in the middle of the table.
After placing Xiao Xie's head, Ye Dingzhi pulled out a bundle of sandalwood, gently exhaled his inner strength, and inserted the sandalwood firmly into the table. He also placed several stacks of yellow paper in the pottery basin...
After doing all this, some warmth finally appeared on Ye Dingzhi's face.
He knelt on his knees in front of the table, took out a wine bag from his waist, and first poured half of the wine into the soil, muttering:
"Dad, Mom! The enemy's head is here. Yun'er finally killed Xiao Xie with her own hands and avenged her blood relationship!"
"You can rest in peace now!"
After saying that, Ye Dingzhi took a big gulp of liquor and held it in his mouth.
"Keng!"
He drew out the Zhenwu Sword, and the blade drew a streak of sparks from the top down on the edge of the pottery basin...
"puff!"
Strong liquor gushed out, flames rose, and ignited the yellow paper in the ceramic basin.
Green smoke curled up into the night sky, and the firelight illuminated Ye Dingzhi's cold and handsome face. After ten years of endurance and hibernation, he finally didn't have to suffer from those nightmares that woke him up in the middle of the night!
"Dad, Mom, killing Xiao Xie isn't enough. He was just the knife that killed people. The one who started it all was that bastard Emperor Xiao Chongjing!"
"I, Ye Dingzhi, swear before my parents, and heaven is my witness, that one day I will kill Xiao Chongjing with my own hands and clear the wrongs done to my Ye family!"
……
(Die! Die for me! All of you die for me!)
(Thanks to Ye Dingzhi, I finally got rid of my anger! But it’s not enough…)
(Thank you all for your support. It's a little late today. I hope everyone will give Daju more praise, attention and rewards... Love you!)
