With a single word, Wei Yuan abruptly lifted the petite figure of Ye Feifei.
Though Liu Yuemei had lost one hand, she clung desperately to Wei Yuan’s dress with the other, wailing, “Wei Yuan, she’s still just a child! She’s not even ten years old!”
“Hmph, so what?” Wei Yuan replied coldly, “For provoking the Wei family, Ye Wushuang deserves to die, and so does everyone in your Ye family!”
With a disdainful snort, Wei Yuan hoisted Ye Feifei up and sneered, “How would you like to die? Shall I throw you high into the air, so you can crash to the ground and die? Perhaps then, when Ye Wushuang returns, he won’t even recognize you. Hehe…”
As she finished speaking, Wei Yuan raised her hand and hurled Ye Feifei into the air. The girl soared more than a dozen feet into the sky before beginning her descent toward the ground. From such a height, if she landed on the stone floor, it would be a gruesome sight.
“Feifei, Feifei!” Liu Yuemei struggled to get up and crawl toward her, but it was too late. Ye Qingfeng was blocked by Li Qingying, his body now marked with several more bloodstains, making it impossible for him to rush over. Xu Qiuyuan, on the other hand, was completely overpowered by Wu Xuan, barely holding on to his own life.
As Ye Feifei’s figure passed over the courtyard wall, she looked up at the sky and marveled at the beauty of the night. But this would be the last time she would see it in her life! She was not afraid of death, but she did not want to die. If she died, her brother would be heartbroken, and she did not want to see him in pain. But wait, if she died, she wouldn’t be able to see him anymore, would she?
As the feeling of death approached, Ye Feifei suddenly saw a face, so close yet so far away. “Brother?” Ye Feifei was stunned for a moment, but then she smiled sweetly and said, “Brother, am I dead?”
“Huh? No, if I’m dead, how could I see you? Did you… did you get bitten by a beast in the Liu Yue Mountains?” Ye Feifei suddenly panicked, tears streaming down her face as she cried uncontrollably, “If you’re dead too, what about Mother and Uncle San? Who will save them?”
“Foolish girl, what are you talking about?” A gentle voice rang out, and a hand pinched Ye Feifei’s ear. Ye Wushuang smiled and asked, “Does it hurt?”
“It hurts, it hurts!” Ye Feifei immediately slapped at Ye Wushuang’s hand and complained, “Brother, you’re pinching too hard.”
“That’s the point. If it hurts, it means you’re still alive. Why are you talking nonsense about dying?” Ye Wushuang laughed.
“But… but…” It was only then that Ye Feifei realized she had landed safely on the ground, right in her brother’s arms. The gazes of those around her made her understand: she was not dead! Her brother had come back!
Gently lowering Ye Feifei to the ground, Ye Wushuang asked, “Are you hurt anywhere else?” Ye Feifei shook her head hastily.
At that moment, Liu Yuemei, seeing Ye Feifei safely caught by Ye Wushuang, let out a sigh of relief, but then suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
“Mother!” Ye Wushuang rushed to Liu Yuemei’s side in three quick strides, helping her up and looking at her twisted wrist, his eyes reddening. “Mother, I’m sorry…” His voice choked as he continued, “I broke my promise. I said I wouldn’t let anyone bully you, but I failed…”
With that, Ye Wushuang quickly took out a bone-healing pill and helped Liu Yuemei swallow it. Seeing his mother’s complexion improve slightly, he looked around at the chaos. Several of the Ye family’s servants lay dead, and his gaze finally fell on Wei Yuan, standing at the entrance of the hall.
“Miss Wei of the Wei family, Wei Yuan!” Ye Wushuang’s tone was calm.
“I thought you were too scared to come back,” Wei Yuan looked down at Ye Wushuang and laughed, “Ye Wushuang, I don’t know whether to call you foolish or arrogant for daring to return!”
“You don’t really think that the Qin family, the Yun family, and the Wei family can’t deal with you, do you?”
