Chapter 587 Successful Plan

After Meng Yinwan finished explaining what she knew about the Dragon Sparrow Sword, she couldn’t help but ask again, "Why didn’t Ye Xiu kill me?"

"It was a sacrificial ruse," Qin Qing said earnestly.

Meng Yinwan was stunned for a moment. She suddenly realized that her usually proud intellect seemed to fall short when it came to Ye Xiu.

Qin Qing continued, "Ye Xiu wants to infiltrate the three Judicator Families as an undercover agent. Killing members of the Restorer Alliance in front of Kristina is the best way to gain their trust."

A loyalty test? To make the three Judicator Families believe that Ye Xiu and the Restorer Alliance are mortal enemies? Meng Yinwan finally understood Ye Xiu’s plan and said angrily, "But that doesn’t mean he had to actually kill people! Why couldn’t he just pretend to kill Pusang and the other two, like you pretended to kill me?"

Qin Qing didn’t answer, leaving Meng Yinwan space to imagine.

After a moment of silence, Meng Yinwan sighed. "Actually killing them is indeed more effective. If all four of us had survived, the three Judicator Families would have eventually found out. Then Ye Xiu’s undercover mission would have failed."

Heh, you’re really good at making excuses for Ye Xiu, Qin Qing complained inwardly before saying seriously, "Therefore, you can no longer show your real face, and your Restorer Alliance must act as if you have a life-or-death feud with Ye Xiu."

Meng Yinwan nodded. "I understand!"

You understand my ass!

In fact, Qin Qing had already vaguely deciphered Ye Xiu’s plan, even though he hadn’t spelled it out in his messages. Ye Xiu was trying to ally with one enemy to take down another! He planned to join forces with the Restorer Alliance to fight the three Judicator Families. Of course, Ye Xiu didn’t actually need help to deal with the Judicator Families; his main goal was simply to keep the Restorer Alliance in check. He didn’t want them getting in the way and causing trouble while he was busy.

...

「Early the next morning.」

Ye Xiu received a call from Kristina. "I... I don’t have any money for food. Could you bring me some?"

"Alright!" Ye Xiu replied with a smile and hung up.

Beside him, Qin Qing remarked, "Kristina is making her move. She’s luring you away so she can send people to capture me and Leng Yue."

Last night, Ye Xiu had received a message from Gong Jin. It stated that four mysterious individuals from Nanjing had secretly entered Kristina’s hotel and met with her. Ye Xiu immediately guessed that these four were operatives from the three Judicator Families stationed in Nanjing, who had rushed to Yunluo City overnight to assist Kristina.

"Are you ready?" Ye Xiu asked seriously.

Qin Qing nodded. "Go ahead. My acting is definitely Oscar-worthy."

Still a little uneasy, Ye Xiu gave a few more instructions before leaving.

At this point, only Qin Qing and Leng Yue remained in the villa. An Dongye, Chloe, Tang Bo, and Dong Fangbai had all strategically relocated the night before. Although Qin Qing claimed she wasn’t nervous, in reality, she was a nervous wreck.

Leng Yue reassured her, "Madam, don’t worry. With me here, you’ll be safe."

As the Commander of the Blood Cloth Guards, Leng Yue viewed everyone in the world, aside from Ye Xiu, as complete trash.

"Mhm!" Qin Qing nodded.

Just then, two middle-aged men and two attractive, middle-aged women walked in with expressionless faces. The two men stood guard at the door with swords while the two women entered the house.

They’re here so soon? Qin Qing and Leng Yue both tensed up.

Qin Qing got into character in a heartbeat. "Who are you looking for?"

One of the women asked, "Are you Ye Xiu’s first wife, Qin Qing, and second wife, Leng Yue?"

"Yes, we are!" Qin Qing nodded.

Confirming their targets, the two women wasted no words. They lunged forward, one at Qin Qing and the other at Leng Yue. Almost simultaneously, they struck the women’s acupoints.

"You... who are you? What are you doing?" Qin Qing and Leng Yue expertly feigned panic and fear, with Qin Qing’s voice trembling.

Leng Yue was genuinely impressed by Qin Qing’s acting. It was a shame her talent was wasted outside of the entertainment industry.

"By order of Princess Kristina, we are inviting you to be guests of the three Judicator Families," one of the women stated.

The other woman took out a phone and snapped a photo of Qin Qing and Leng Yue. Then, they struck their sleep acupoints, carried them outside, threw Leng Yue into the trunk, and tossed Qin Qing onto the back seat before driving away. Only then did the two middle-aged men, who had been standing guard, get into another car and leave.

As soon as they were gone, Mo Luo emerged from his hiding spot, took out his phone, and sent Ye Xiu a message: "Plan went smoothly. The young mistress and Leng Yue have been taken. They said they’re taking them to the three Judicator Families as guests!"

Reading the message, Ye Xiu breathed a sigh of relief. He had been genuinely worried that Kristina’s people would just hide Qin Qing and Leng Yue somewhere random instead of sending them to the Judicator Families. It seemed he had been worrying for nothing.

「At the hotel restaurant.」

Ye Xiu saw Kristina sitting at a table, absorbed in a book. He sat down opposite her uninvited and said, "Reading a classic?"

Kristina looked up at Ye Xiu, her face as expressionless as a robot’s. She took a deep breath, discovering that it was impossible to maintain her usual state of serene detachment when facing him. This guy must have been sent by the heavens to stop her from cultivating the Supreme Oblivion Record.

Struggling to remain calm, Kristina said, "Ye Xiu, are you willing to serve the Golden Family?"

"You mean you want me to marry into the Golden Family?" Ye Xiu retorted.

Kristina stared at him as a doctor might observe a patient. She seriously suspected there was a hole in his head; otherwise, how could his thought process be so abnormal?

Losing her patience, Kristina got straight to the point. "From now on, you are a field agent for the Golden Family, and I am your direct superior. You will do whatever I tell you to do."

Ye Xiu laughed. "Did you skip breakfast and your brain is lacking oxygen? How else could you say something like that?"

SMACK!

Kristina slammed her phone on the table. "See for yourself!"

Ye Xiu feigned confusion as he picked up the phone, which displayed the photo of Qin Qing and Leng Yue.

At that moment, Ye Xiu nearly ran out to buy a bottle of brain tonic and pour it down Kristina’s throat. This woman was an absolute idiot! Even if she wanted to use Qin Qing and Leng Yue to threaten him, she should have at least waited until they were safely delivered to the three Judicator Families. She had only just kidnapped them and was already eager to show her hand. Wasn’t she afraid she wouldn’t be able to leave Yunluo City?

"My people captured Qin Qing and Leng Yue right after you left home. Next, they will be sent to the three Judicator Families," Kristina said, crossing her legs and looking at Ye Xiu with the playful mockery of a queen. In that moment, she felt she had him firmly in her grasp and that the situation was completely under her control.

She continued, "From now on, you will do exactly as I say. Otherwise, Qin Qing and Leng Yue will die a miserable death."

Ye Xiu instantly got into character, feigning fury. "Shameless! The princess of the prestigious Golden Family, resorting to such despicable tricks."

"Say what you will," Kristina shrugged.
