" Lei Yue demanded, she wasn't asking to take it back, she demanded it because to her, it was rightfully hers after all her name was the one written in the imperial edict.

Even the guards on hearing this statement felt their ears vibrate and their hearts shake due to the severity of what had just been spoken.

this was the thought going through of every guards' present.

The earlier gentle gaze of the General turned stern

"But Father" Yue Lei eye's turned red and tears where threatening to fall, she was really a good actor and knew how to gain pity, it was the same tactics she used on Tao Shi and combined with her threatening family background the poor scholar stood no chance and thus he made up his mind to protect her and provide for her despite not truly loving her, but Tao Shi was a loyal man and would have never thought of betraying.

Madam Lei decided to support her daughter, after all if her daughter becomes empress her status will be elevated as well.

"Have you all lost your minds? have you forgotten that what we have done is treason and if our lie is found out, nine generations of our family paying the price might not even satisfy the emperor's blood lust. Have you all also forgotten that the emperor still holds a grudge against me"

Madam Lei confidently said.

Frankly speaking the general had wondered why the emperor hasn't wiped them out yet and even if the general had always thought that it was because the emperor wanted to slowly torture him which he was perfectly succeeding in doing since he can't remember when last he didn't sleep with his eyes open, the general believed that couldn't be the emperor's only reason for sparing the Lei family but despite knowing that he still couldn't believe what his wife had told him some months ago and this is probably because she said it in passing.

Also, despite knowing he is on the emperor' blacklist he still went ahead to go against him for his daughter's sake so right now if his wife doesn't say something that will be pleasing to his ears, he will definitely teach this ungrateful daughter of a lesson.

Lei Chow said

his stern expression didn't lessen a bit while staring at both mother and daughter.

General Lei was truly surprised, he really wasn't aware all this happen behind his back.

Madam Lei added to what she had said previously.

General Lei couldn't see how this reason prevented the emperor from attacking them long ago.

Madam Lei smiled smugly after saying these things.

Lei Chow asked curiously.

"Great-grandmother is really something, she will even disregard the wishes of her family just for a nobody with no blood relations to her" Lei Chow Huffs angrily.

Lei Yue aggrieved voice echoed loudly in the manor.

Madam Lei scolded her daughter back.

General Lei said and it seems the family was in silent agreement with this.

Meanwhile after the fight with Wang Xiu Jiang decided it might not be very safe to return to the imperial palace, He had this feeling that he doesn't escape now he might never be able to and moreover what if Jun Tang was really related to the emperor it some way and decided to expose him.

Jiang couldn't take such chances and thus decided not to return to the imperial palace.

Jiang believed that if he were to leave now his family won't immediately come chasing after him since they will still think he was at the imperial palace and then maybe during this period of time he could try getting rid of the bracelet on his hand as well as finding a way to stop the jinx tracer from locating him.

Even if he had to find one of those legendary ancient realms where it was said that some jinx tracers were ineffective then that was what he would do, he will go there and cultivate to the point where both the emperor and his father won't ever be able to lay a finger on him even if they wanted to.

His plan wasn't full proof but he had to try.

Jiang couldn't forget the fact that his father could use the jinx tracer to locate him, after all, he still hasn't reached a level where he could hide his presence but maybe he could find an artifact or something that could do just that, so many possible ways to escape his predicament where swimming in his head

Thinking about how the jinx tracer uses the blood of a person to trace them after absorbing that person's blood, Jiang wondered if his plans were visible at all after all the jinx tracer in his father's possession already absorbed his blood.

Jiang stood in the middle of the forest and thought about his next move seriously, He knew that the imperial palace, as well as the outside world, wasn't safe for him because at the imperial palace if Jun Tang had exposed him then his life was as good as forfeited while outside when his father finds out he had left the palace his life will still be in danger, Jiang was at an impasse.

After thinking for so long Jiang decided to leave the palace and then put into motion what he had planned.

He will find ways to get rid of both the bracelet on his wrist as well as the Jinx tracer's ability from locating him, he will do anything to protect his little precious life.
