Chapter 886: Chapter 886: 884: The Master Won't Harm Me

Chu Yihan pulled her back, “Be careful of deceit! He and this female slave have something strange going on.”

Chu Yihan slightly furrowed his brows. Throughout the journey earlier, Mu Fei had been protectively guarding this female slave, and now he brought up Su Yingxue, as if he were waiting for her arrival.

He couldn’t allow Su Yingxue to come any closer.

“Your Highness, Ah Jing is someone who has shared life and death with me. She’s still young and a simple-minded child at heart,” Su Yingxue pleaded with her lips tightened, her concern evident. If it weren’t for being sold to the ghost market and falling into Mu Fei’s hands, how could she have become a female slave?

She should be living like any other normal girl.

Chu Yihan shook his head, “This female slave is Mu Fei’s bargaining chip; he’s waiting for you.”

Chu Yihan informed Su Yingxue, who clenched her teeth in force, “Mu Fei, you insidious villain, you had planned this all along, didn’t you? You intended to use Ah Jing, right?”

“Of course! Why else would I sell this slave for no reason, keeping her by my side the entire time? Su Yingxue, you are a person of deep emotions and loyalty. A young girl who has shared life and death with you and is obedient, you wouldn’t bear to let her just die like this, would you?” Mu Fei’s eyes sparked a cold, sly smile as he concealed the schemes deep in his gaze.

“No…not like this.”

Ah Jing’s neck was almost being crushed as she shook her head in tears; she couldn’t believe her master would use her!

He wouldn’t!

The master had always been so kind to her!

He… he was kind to her!

“Ah Jing, don’t be afraid, I will save you.”

Su Yingxue spoke to comfort her, then glared at Mu Fei, “You think you can use Ah Jing to escape? Do you think you could get away?”

Chu Yihan’s Shadow Guards had heavily surrounded the area, and countless Imperial Guards of Qin Rulie were guarding outside Yingdu. Even if Mu Fei grew wings, he would not be able to fly back to the ghost market.

“You only have two choices: let this young girl accompany me in death, or let me go; otherwise…”

Mu Fei laughed menacingly, increasing the strength in his hand as he lifted Ah Jing off the ground by her neck.

“Ah… ah… master!”

Ah Jing’s little face twisted in pain as she let out a pitiful whimper, begging Mu Fei for mercy.

A flicker of reluctance passed through Mu Fei’s eyes, but his hands persisted in tightening their grip.

“Don’t!”

Su Yingxue gritted her teeth in anger, “Fine, I’ll let you go, but you must release Ah Jing, let go of her now!”

Su Yingxue turned and grabbed Chu Yihan’s hand, a hint of urgency in her gaze, “Saving Ah Jing is what matters most.”

Capturing Mu Fei was not a difficult task.

Qin Rulie’s reach didn’t extend to the ghost market, but she and Chu Yihan could upend the ghost market and drag Mu Fei out if needed.

Chu Yihan nodded in agreement, “Alright.”

Her requests, he would never refuse.

“Mu Fei, let Ah Jing go.”

Su Yingxue yelled at him.

Mu Fei quietly breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes holding an apology, then raised his hand and threw Ah Jing out.

If Su Yingxue hadn’t caught Ah Jing, the girl would have smashed into the rocks and undoubtedly shattered to pieces.

But Mu Fei had carefully controlled the force in his hands, only turning to flee after seeing Su Yingxue catch Ah Jing.

Chu Yihan waved his hand to give the order, “Chase!”

“Yes, Your Highness!”

Mo Qi led a group of Shadow Guards and swiftly pursued.

In the night, Su Yingxue held Ah Jing, seeing her neck bruised and purplish from Mu Fei’s strangling, she spat out in disdain, “Scum! Not even sparing you.”

Ah Jing’s lips quivered, unable to speak, but in her heart, she knew, “Master would not harm me… ”

Her master was the kindest person in the whole world to her.

Su Yingxue and Chu Yihan together took the people back.
