Forsaken Immortals Chapter 41
Advertisement
Although the princess was very brazen with her words, that was only if she was able to use her strength to suppress others. Now that she was being suppressed, her face was red, her body trembling with hate and anger.
She was the one who bullied others, when had she ever been bullied?!
But she was also aware that going against this woman would just end with her being beaten up, so she had no option other than to reign in her anger and frustration.
Fortunately for her, someone else had not understood the situation at all. Bai Yue'er saw that the Crown Prince was eager to connect to this woman, and jealousy was gnawing in her heart.
"Stop right there!" she called out. If it were not for the Crown Prince being there, she would have cursed her.
"You seduced this expert to make him your man, but do you honestly think that you can walk sideways just because of a man who is not even your own?" Bai Yue'er mocked her, her eyes glancing at the Crown Prince to see his reaction.
As she had expected, his eyes darkened when he heard her say that she had seduced the expert into acting like her guard, but while she thought it was anger towards Bai Rouyun, the truth was that it was anger towards her, Bai Yue'er.
Anyone with a bit of brain could see his polite behavior towards Bai Rouyun. Even if she had seduced him, she was the one who had to be flattering and pleasing him, not the other way around. This woman was clearly the master.
"So young but already sprouting such venomous words," Bai Rouyun said with a carefree shake of her head. It was as if she was not insulted by the words, but upon closer inspection, one would find that the smile on her face did not reach her eyes, which were cold.

"Xiao Chu, since she cannot speak properly, we should educate her. Chop her tongue off."
The voice that drifted over was gentle and melodious. It was soft and pleasant to listen to; however, when one heard the words that were said, all of them felt a chill running down their spine.
Mo Chu did not ask if she was serious, he strode directly towards Bai Yue'er.
His master was Li Moyun, and Li Moyun was one of the most ruthless figures in the entire world. Something as simple as chopping off one's tongue was not even considered a real punishment.
And Mo Chu was also insulted by the words this woman had said. His master's wife had seduced him? Was she trying to say that he had competed with his master for her affection, or was she trying to say that Bai Rouyun was putting a green hat on Li Moyun's head?
Mo Chu went to Bai Yue'er's side, grasped her head with a hand, and forced her mouth open. A beam of blue Qi flashed, followed by a shriek, and the scent of blood wafted everywhere.
It was in the middle of the Thousand Treasure Pavilion, and many other customers were alerted by the shriek and the scent of blood. They came rushing over, only to see the young miss of the General Bai's estate was spraying blood from her mouth, her tongue laying on the ground in a pool of blood.
The commotion had caused the branch manager to appear, and when he saw that Bai Rouyun was standing with cold eyes staring at the kneeling and bleeding woman, he felt a headache coming his way.
"I say, Miss, can't you leave some face for our Thousand Treasure Pavilion?" the branch manager asked Bai Rouyun, looking as if he was looking at his ancestor.

He dared not insult her, as he had understood that this woman held a high position in their young master's heart, but he felt defeated.
The reputation of the Thousand Treasure Pavilion was going to suffer after her actions.
Not to mention the compensation they needed to fork out for the General's family for having cut off the tongue of Bai Yue'er on their premises. Although it was not the Thousand Treasure Pavilion that had done so, it was done in their shop so they could not avoid blame.
Bai Rouyun was carefree as she looked at the branch leader. Then she looked at the bloody Bai Yue'er, and said in a casual voice, "She insulted me, and she insulted my husband's dignity. She claimed I had improper relationships with my guard. It is already enough that I have not killed her within your store, but now you come to me to condemn my actions?"
Everyone present was shocked when they heard what Bai Rouyun said. Husband? This girl looked like she was only just old enough to be married, but she had already married someone?
The heart of the Crown Prince ached, he felt as if something had been taken out, but he was not willing to give up getting her backing, so he kept a straight face.
The branch leader, however, was shocked, silly. Did his young master know that this woman was already married?
Bai Yue'er, who was lying on the floor in a pool of her own blood, was feeling regretful. So regretful that her insides turned green, but she had no other option than to accept it. She could not change anything.
If she had known that this woman was married, she would not take her as a rival. Everyone knew that married women belonged to their husbands. No one would be so immoral to break a loving couple up.
Not to mention, this world was a world that belonged to men; men were superior while women were inferior. Having been touched by a man, no other man should want her.
