He had been playing along with her, he had long known about her plans.

What did he mean?

Feng Lingxue was dazed, her gaze slowly traveled onto the photographs in his hand.

The photographs were taken at Ah Jiao’s Room. North Duke had gone to look for her, he wanted her to go to the Capital on the pretense of seducing Gu Mohan according to Feng Lihen’s instructions when in fact, he wanted her to seduce Xuan Ying.

He had already… learned of the truth since then?

So when they first met in the Capital, everything was under his control?

“I’ve been expanding my sphere of influence. My first goal is… the North Palace. Ha, I hadn’t expected North Duke to even mess with me. He even sent me… an old flame.”

Xuan Ying squeezed Feng Lingxue’s waist, raising his brows as he exuded a sexy charm. “It’s a waste if I don’t accept an old flame who came knocking on my door, so I just played along and brought you back to my Snow Mountain Residence. You’ve given me the chance to whip you and humiliate you while enjoying your body, why wouldn’t I accept it? Moreover, I can watch how you all behave like clowns while trying to set me up. It’s been truly entertaining.

“You thought that you had drugged me but I’ve actually coated the rims of the wine glass with an antidote. I was merely making use of you and playing along. From the very start, I only treated you as a…”Xuan Ying lowered his head and whispered in her ear, “lowly prostitute.”

As though she had been pushed into an abyss, his words seared into her mind and she could no longer think properly.

So he was in control of everything.

She was merely a pawn in the battle.

“I don’t believe you. You even took me to the cable car ride, you even called me Lingling…”

“Ha.” Xuan Ying forced out a laugh. “Do you know how I felt then? I really wanted to… throw up.”

Hearing his callous words, Feng Lingxue’s pupils turned lifeless. She never knew that he was so good at talking, just those few words of his were enough to make her heart wrench in pain, as though someone was stabbing her heart.

It was painful.

She was hurting all over.

She curled up, having no idea what he was talking about at all.

He really hated her so much.

Feng Lingxue’s eyes were red and tears welled up inside.

“You’re going to cry?” Xuan Ying picked up her jaw, with a wry smile on his face, disgust was written all over his face. “Keep those crocodile tears to yourself. The moment you betrayed me three years ago, I already deleted your presence in my heart. I only have… hatred for you now.”

Understood.

She understood it all.

He no longer loved her.

Those sweet things he did for her, the cable car ride, him calling her Lingling, it was all fake. She no longer had any expectations, she didn’t want to continue being delusional. Brother Ying was really dead.

Xuan Ying flung his arm and her body fell onto the carpeted ground, just like a kite with a broken string.

On the floor, Xuan Mu rolled around the ground in agony when Xuan Ying walked in front, crouching over and he took away Xuan Mu’s tally stick.

He stood up with an almighty aura he stepped on Xuan Mu’s face. “You can spend the rest of your life with your parents who spoil you so much in the South Palace.”

Xuan Mu’s assistant quickly knelt down. “Silver Mask King, you’re our Master from now on!”

All Xuan Mu knew was to indulge in debauchery, he had zero capabilities. His underlings had some pent up anger in them and they admired Xuan Ying a lot. Now that they had the opportunity, they had to grab it and pledge their loyalty to Xuan Ying.

“Silver Mask King, you’re our Master!” Xuan Mu’s underlings all knelt down.

Feng Lingxue’s face was completely pale as she lifted her head to look at Xuan Ying. He stood tall in the center of the living room, the chandelier shining above him and he was surrounded by the golden light. Now, he was worshipped by many.

He was dignified, brazen, beastly. He would definitely rule the world one day.

Hearing those voices of worship, Feng Lingxue lifted her hands, covering her face. Burning hot tears ran through her fingers and she smiled even while tears streamed down.

That was great.

She was happy knowing that he was doing great and would continue to do so in the future.

His future without her.

When North Duke witnessed the scene, he was filled with regret. Now that Xuan Mu’s tally stick had been taken away, that meant that Xuan Ying was going to confine the South Duke and Xuan Mu in the South Palace. From now on, Xuan Ying would be the one wielding the true power and military rights.

He hadn’t expected a man of such lowly beginnings to have such astuteness. He really was formidable.

“Silver Mask King, what do you plan to do with me? If you dare lay a finger on me, my army is going to ruin this entire place.”

Xuan Ying raised the corners of his lips lightly. “North Duke, you may leave.”

What?

North Duke’s expression changed. How could Xuan Ying possibly let him off that easily?

Though North Duke was still skeptical, he quickly made his way out of the place.

As he walked over to the door, he suddenly heard Xuan Ying’s voice coming from behind. “Oh, North Duke, I forgot to tell you something. I worked together with your illegitimate son, Feng Lihen, to take down the North Palace when you came here. There’s a new owner to the North Palace now.”

North Duke gasped. Did he lose his foothold?

Feng Lihen had become the new North Duke?

How could that even happen?!

Puff. The shock was too great for him, he spat a mouthful of blood out and collapsed. North Duke probably had little time left.

No… Feng Lingxue was shocked, he couldn’t die now. He hadn’t told her Mu Mu’s whereabouts yet.

She got up, wanting to run towards North Duke.

“Miss Feng, please stop.” Ah Zhou blocked her.

“Let me go over, I want to see my father!”

“Ha.” Xuan Ying let out a low chuckle. “What a filial daughter, I’m really touched.”

Feng Lingxue turned around to look at Xuan Ying. Her face was covered in tears. Her knees dropped to the ground with a loud pound.

“Please spare my father’s life. Don’t let him die like that, please don’t… I’ll give you kowtows, I’ll make sure to serve you well in the future…”

Feng Lingxue gave him multiple kowtows, knocking her head against the ground and it made loud sounds. Soon, a wound appeared on her forehead, revealing the flesh inside.

Xuan Ying stood in front of her, looking at her from on top. “You want to serve me? Who even said that you can serve me?”

Feng Lingxue was stunned, looking at him dazedly. She had no idea what he meant.

Xuan Ying gave her a cold sneer. “I’m afraid that I’ll dirty my hands just touching you. You really disgust me.”

The corners of his lips kicked up into a sardonic smile. “Listen up, I’m going to be giving you to… my elder brother Xuan Mu. I gave him a kick in the groin and I’m not sure whether he’s still potent or not. But I heard that impotent men are even more perverted. They have many ways to torture women. You can enjoy your time with him.”

H-He gave her away to someone else?

Not only that, but he had also given her to Xuan Mu.
