Chapter 441

Diamond J's glance saved his life.

Qin Hanyue was a little worried.

After a brief moment of contemplation, Qiao Ying said to Diamond J, "Get up and come with me."

Diamond J heaved a sigh of relief and crawled up from the ground.

Flowing Shadow stepped forward a few steps, arms crossed over his chest, blocking Qiao Ying and Diamond J's way: "Where are you taking him?"

Qiao Ying: "Get out of my way."

Flowing Shadow: "He's quite crafty among those old guys, be careful you get tricked by him. It would be hard to find him again afterwards."

Thinking of Blood Shadow's formidable power, Flowing Shadow softened his tone: "I'll go with you and have his life after you finish questioning. I don't want to bust my ass just to let the tiger return to the mountain and breed future troubles."

Moon Shadow came up and pulled Flowing Shadow: "Let her take him away, don't worry, she wants him dead more than any of us." He glanced at Qiao Ying and said to Flowing Shadow, "She's way more ruthless than us."

Qiao Ying told Qin Hanyue who wanted to follow her, "No need to come along, wait for me at Lin Cheng's place, I'll be back later."

Qin Hanyue was silent for a moment before responding: "Alright."

A silver gleam flashed across Qiao Ying's fingers. Diamond J had reacted quickly but still wasn't fast enough. Three silver needles appeared on his neck.

He raised his hand attempting to touch them but heard Qiao Ying say, "Go ahead and try if you're looking to die." Diamond J froze his neck, not daring to touch the needles anymore.

He slowly put his hand down and caught up with Qiao Ying as she left the hall.

Worried, Lin Cheng asked Qin Hanyue, "Nothing will happen, right?"

Lin Guli: "Yeah."

Qin Hanyue: "It won't."

Staring at the backs of the two leaving, Flowing Shadow asked Moon Shadow, "Should we follow them?"

Moon Shadow: "No need. I don't think Diamond J can exchange his life with just these petty tricks. She never makes a losing deal." He added, "Even if Blood Shadow craves familial bonds more than I anticipated and makes some kind of trade with Diamond J, don't forget that she is a rogue. She has no integrity."

Recalling certain matters, Flowing Shadow echoed: "That mouth of hers can rarely be trusted indeed."

It seems they had all suffered losses at her hands to some degree. Whenever running into her, they were bound to get short-changed.

Moon Shadow couldn't help lamenting: "He's actually still alive. That's a pleasant surprise. I thought there were only the two of us Shadow-named ones left."

Just as Moon Shadow was speaking, he noticed Qin Hanyue looking at them with unfriendly eyes.

Puzzled, Moon Shadow returned his gaze.

Sensing something, Moon Shadow wondered: We didn't gossip about Blood Shadow, did we? What's with his stare?

Just as he was thinking, sounds of movement caught his attention.

He looked over and saw Lafeier rushing up to Lai En, grabbing Lai En's arms forcefully and painfully.

Somewhat hysterically, he asked: "Lai En, we didn't lose! We didn't lose, did we? We won, I'm the king, I'm the king's father. From now on, the entire royal household belongs to us. The Karolin clan will be trampled under our feet ruthlessly. Their glory has come to an end, it's over, hahaha!"
