These three words made Qi Shuning’s blood almost reverse its flow.

She looked at Yu Xiheng in disbelief, her eyes wide with shock.

How could a man, serene and clear like the moonlit night, utter such cruel words?

“Here we go!” Xi Jiang stepped forward decisively. “Brother Nine, these sharks are meticulously bred by the Feng family. It’s different from the wild ones in the sea, with sharp teeth.”

“Mhmm.” Yu Xiheng, propping his head, offering a rare praise, “Well done.”

This compliment nearly pushed Qi Shuning to the brink of nervous collapse.

She screamed, retreating backwards with her hands bracing against the ground, “Who are you… who are you all?!”

She thought she was safe after escaping from JIANG Shuihan, only to end up in a more terrifying place.

What kind ofpeople were these?

Breeding sharks?!

“I warn you!” Qi Shuning, her face deathly pale, exclaimed, “I am the new pillar of the Great Xia TV, and my grandmother hails from a wealthy family in Sijiu City. If you dare to touch me, you’ll be doomed too!”

She indeed had powerful backing, or she wouldn’t have become the new pillar of the Great Xia TV so soon.

There were others with more experience than her.

In any circle, one needed connections to rise to prominence.

Qi Shuning was ready to take over a new show on the Great Xia TV after the program recording, possibly even becoming the host for the Spring Festival Gala.

How dare these people kidnap her?

Yu Xiheng looked indifferent, his gaze downcast without emotion.

It was like returning to many years ago, when he sat on the golden dragon throne, watching those prisoners struggle in vain.

Emperor Yin was never a perfect emperor; he had his cruel and ruthless side.

He harbored the world in his heart, pitied the people, and even personally toiled, tasting the myriad sufferings of life.

But against his enemies, the word ‘mercy’ was never in his dictionary.

The blood of countless lives stained the hands of an emperor.

Not to mention the time when sixteen princes vied for the throne, with blood brothers setting traps for each other, he showed no mercy.

Later, he executed over five thousand corrupt officials and eunuchs in a year, suppressing the turbulent court with thunderous methods, silencing all dissent.

He knew how to wield a sword like a man at the age of six.

History recorded much about this, and later generations had various criticisms.

Some said he was brutal.

Others said his ascendancy was illegitimate, having even killed his brothers.

Still others argued that his policy of stopping war with war and killing with killing was mistaken, costing many soldiers’ lives.

Regardless, he established a millennium- long foundation for the Great Xia Dynasty, driving the barbarian tribes out of the five states.

His life saw rare defeat.

Even 1500 years after his death, he still guarded this land.

But now was not that chaotic era anymore, as peaceful as the dream he had before his previous life’s death.

He concealed all his sharpness, gradually making himself as ordinary as possible.

Who would know that 1500 years ago, in that age of great strife, only the strong could survive.

“Oh, talking about the Great Xia TV?” Shen Ying crossed his arms, raising an eyebrow, “Even if the noble families of Sijiu City come to plead for you today, you’ll still have to go down.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Don’t waste words with her,” Xi Jiang scoffed coldly. “This worthless thing doesn’t know, she could bring the Three Aristocratic Families and Four Major Alliances running here, her death is worth it.”

“Nonsense,” Feng San slapped him on the head. “They’re here for Miss Si, not her. Don’t inflate her importance.”

Their casual conversation was like thunderclaps in Qi Shuning’s ears.

The Three Aristocratic Families and Four Major Alliances!

Qi Shuning’s mind buzzed.

Who exactly was Si Fuqing, that overnight, so manypeople came to support her?!

Could the Great Xia TVnotprotect her?

Who was this man?

While it was said that the wealthy families of Sijiu City were incredibly powerful, even three-year-old children in the Great Xia Empire knew that the real heavens were the Three Aristocratic Families and Four Major Alliances.

IfSi Fuqing had any connection with any of them, how could she be doing so poorly in the entertainment industry?

Holding her head, Qi Shuning started screaming again.

She couldn’t believe it… she refused to believe it!

Why was Si Fuqing better than her in everything?

Shen Ying and Xi Jiang lifted Qi Shuning up, disregarding her struggles, and brought her to the large swimming pool on the balcony.

“Wait.”

A voice spoke.

A glimmer of hope appeared in Qi Shuning’s eyes.

Pausing for a moment, Yu Xiheng spoke again, “Don’t let her die, leave her with a breath.”

When Yu Xiheng said to leave a breath, it meant exactly that — just a single breath..
