Rebirth of the Heavenly Empress

Song San rarely smoked.

At least, he was personally not that addicted. However, at this point, as he saw the figure before him.

The corner of his lips twitched, but he couldn’t work up the slightest smile.

Instead, as an extremely rare occurrence, he retrieved a cigarette from his pocket, his lowered eyes looking very serious.

Those leering eyes across him were undeniably gorgeous. Although she acted arrogantly, that familiar leisurely tone made his heart shake violently instead.

He turned his head sideways and said to the person beside him. “Release them.”

The mere two words were more solemn than ever.

“Master San!” The great sorcerer laid in the pool of blood as he looked at Song San in disbelief.

Song San retracted his gaze mildly and said in a calm tone. “Otherwise? Yu Shijin alone is already a handful. Just now, that team of fighter jets of the Yu Family that came last was really too strong. Even if Apollo didn’t appear after that, we can’t do anything to Yu Shijin either.”

Also, that girl wasn’t any ordinary folk as well.

Today, with an injured hand, she could already hold a major general under him captive. If she weren’t injured, who could stop her?

Most importantly, such eyes and that tone of voice was clearly very familiar.

Yu Shijin and Su Huiqing were both difficult opponents.

Thinking of this, his eyes darkened.

All along, that person from the Yu Family who held the purple-tint orchid badge didn’t bother him at all.

However, after tonight’s duel, he realized that he was actually rather on par with Yu Shijin.

Most importantly, he still didn’t know if the other party had shown his full abilities.

“Go and investigate those two people thoroughly.” When he turned around finally, he only left with this statement.

He was naturally referring to Su Huiqing and Yu Shijin.

—

The sky was already increasingly darkening.

On the way back to the Yu Residences, the doctor that Chu Xuning brought had already attended Su Huiqing’s injury.

When they returned to the Yu Residences, Yu Shijin immediately ordered for a set of fresh clothes for Su Huiqing and dumped them in her hands. “Take a shower first.”

His voice was deep and seemingly the same as before.

Except for that pair of eyes that were so black they looked harsh.

Drenched in blood and sweat, Su Huiqing squinted her eyes and didn’t reject either. She took the clothes directly and smiled at the helper beside her. “Sister, bring me to the bathroom.”

That smile was cool and harsh, which suited her style.

The helper was stunned and only reacted when she felt a cold glare from Yu Shijin.

She immediately brought Su Huiqing to the bathroom in the adjacent room.

Seeing that she left, Yu Shijin stood at the same spot for a while.

During this period of time, Chu Xuning and the rest could very obviously feel the ever-changing hostility on him.

The chief detective looked at him and wanted to speak, but stopped himself.

Yu Shijin looked up slightly, shot a cold glare at him, and said a single word. “Speak.”

“Here’s the thing—the City Lord and the rest are still waiting for you.” The chief detective said immediately.

Yu Shijin was originally walking towards the bookshelf. Hearing this, he turned back and walked towards the door. “Tell Grandpa that I’ll be there right now.”

The Ye, Dugu, and Yu families had waited for almost four hours before Yu Shijin arrived.

“What’s the matter—speak.” Yu Shijin stood before the entire meeting room just like this with his cold eyes lowered.

A layer of evil aura surrounded him.

It was obvious to tell that he wasn’t in a great mood.

Yu Hongchang said on the main seat and only sipped tea from his cup.

He seemed in a leisurely mood.

“The, the…” When the head of the Ye Family came, he was still full of confidence. However, when he saw Yu Shijin, he became frightened. “You and the Unknown Island…”

“This is my matter and doesn’t concern the Ye Family.” Yu Shijin looked at him from the side of his eyes as his chin tightened and coldness spread from his eyes. “If there’s nothing else, I’m leaving.”

Saying that, he turned and left.

The elder of the Dugu saw that he was really going to leave and immediately turned his gaze to Yu Hongchang, as if to ask for help.

“Hang on.” Yu Hongchang placed his teacup down and finally spoke up slowly. “Old Master Dugu is here to discuss the marriage between the two families.”

“You agreed?” Yu Shijin looked towards Yu Hongchang without the least bit of warmth in his eyes.

Yu Hongchang immediately shook his head. “Naturally not.”

“Then what’s there to discuss?” Yu Shijin turned around once again, his eyes filled with coldness.

“But this is a marriage decided by our ancestors.” Old Master Dugu couldn’t help but shiver. “You… this…”

“Don’t bother me about such stuff in the future. There’s only one person I want to marry.” Yu Shijin walked out the door. In the end, he looked sideways at the people inside. “Otherwise, I’ll let the all of you see Miss Dugu’s corpse.”

The roomful of people fell silent.

Yu Shijin walked towards his place of residence.

At this time, most of the people were already asleep.

However, there were still a couple of people on night patrol.

They all bowed respectfully upon seeing him and Yu Shijin nodded mildly.

Yu Shijin pushed the door open, scanned the living room, and his eyes darkened as they glanced at the helper. “Where’s she?”

The helper was stunned and had yet to speak.

Su Huiqing bit on a cup of milk and walked out from the kitchen.

She had changed into a set of leisure clothes—a white blouse with its sleeves rolled up, revealing a bandage that was still stained with blood.

Upon seeing him, Su Huiqing narrowed her eyes slightly, walked over, reached out, and patted his shoulder.

She looked sideways at him and smiled. “Brother Yu, I’ll remember today.”

Her eyes were simply gorgeous.

Yu Shijin only lowered his eyes and looked over to her blood-stained bandage. His already cold eyes became even colder as he pushed her on the sofa. “Who wants you to remember—let me take a look at the wound.”

As she saw his serious expression.

Su Huiqing leaned on the sofa just like this, took her phone with her other hand, and sent Chi Yue a message.

Yu Shijin lowered his eyes and gently applied the medicine from the doctor for her.

Very naturally, he would touch her fair arm.

They were so close that they seemed to be able to feel the sound of each other breathing.

Yu Shijin secured the bandage and said mildly, “Done.”

“Huh?” Su Huiqing was still chatting with Chi Yue and had yet to react when she returned his gaze and uttered a word.

Initially, there was nothing. However, at this moment, her face was too close to his own. As he tried to lower his voice, Yu Shijin felt the surrounding atmosphere freeze and a current seemed to pass through his brain.

He lowered his head and gave a peck on a corner of that fair forehead.
