After Lin Shuran was taken away, Liu Yuanyuan and Hu Yu immediately went back to inform Liu Sanniang. She stood up anxiously but Chu Yan held her hand. Liu Sanniang was lost in thought. The last thing she wanted to happen… happened.

When the people from the Ministry of War came to invite them, Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan immediately took General Black and went.

It was already bright. There were many people in the Ministry of War, some of whom Liu Sanniang knew.

There were more than ten people from the Cloud Breaking Sect.

There were also some hidden masters with arrogant expressions. They closed their eyes to rest. They did not want to be disturbed by anyone.

Wu Ju was dressed in a white robe. When he saw Liu Sanniang, he smiled. “Miss Liu, you’re here.”

Wu Changxian stood up to welcome her. “Miss Liu, you should have heard about it, right?”

…..

Liu Sanniang nodded. “Where is the old woman’s corpse?”

Wu Changxian said, “It’s already in the Ministry of War. It’s kept inside.”

Xia Qiluo stepped forth and said, “Lord Wu, the sect and 1 have already thought of a way to save everyone in one go. Please dismiss the unrelated people. No one is allowed to see the forbidden technique of my sect.”

Wu Changxian looked at Liu Sanniang apologetically. “Miss Liu, it’s inside. Go in and take a look. Saving people is more important.”

Liu Sanniang stopped in her tracks and glanced at Xia Qiluo. She said calmly, “Seventh Princess, are you prepared? Have you thought about the consequences of angering him again and again?”

On the way here, Liu Sanniang already knew that Xia Qiluo had tried to save Lin Shuran and Miss Zhou, but in the end, she only managed to save an arm each time. Lin Shuran’s arms had been chopped off, so her chances of survival were slim.

Did Xia Qiluo consider the consequences of provoking Liu Shun again and again? No, Xia Qiluo had never considered it. In her opinion, the life and death of the victim was not important.

Xia Qiluo’s eyes darkened. “Do you have a better way? If you have a better way, what are you waiting for?”

Liu Sanniang said calmly, “I’m still investigating. I can only figure out a solution when 1 know where his ability is from.”

It was an ability that she had never seen before.

Xia Qiluo’s eyes were cold. “If we wait, people will die. Miss Liu, you can afford to wait, but can they?”

Liu Sanniang did not say anything. Xia Qiluo was right. If they waited any longer, the daughters of these officials might die. They could not afford to wait.

The madams with worried expressions begged Xia Qiluo. “Princess, please save our daughter. Our daughter can’t wait that long. Let’s save them first before thinking of a way to catch the evil doer.”

Xia Qiluo’s expression was cold. “I can’t guarantee that your daughter will be saved alive. Life and death are up to fate.”

The madams nodded with tears in their eyes.

Xia Qiluo had already gone to prepare with the disciples of the sect. This was a complicated and huge array formation. The Ministry of War specially found a cell for the Cloud Breaking Sect to prepare. Since outsiders were not allowed to watch the process, the cell was the best place to do it.

Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan arrived at the place where Liu Shun’s mother’s corpse was placed. She reached out and grabbed Liu Shun’s mother’s stiff hand, carefully sensing her memories.

Wu Ju walked in. General Black instantly walked to Liu Sanniang’s side and blocked Wu Ju from approaching.

Wu Ju did not mind the action. He said calmly, “If you want to catch a person who was born to do evil, you have to find the ambition in his heart.”

Liu Sanniang looked at Liu Shun’s mother and said calmly, “He was supposed to be dead.”

That dream was a prophecy.

Liu Shun was sentenced to capital punishment for beating Liu Yinniang to death. How could he still be alive?

Wu Ju said, “There are many ways to keep a person alive. If a person dies, his soul will still be lingering in the world. That way, he is still considered alive.”

The remaining memories of Liu Shun’s mother that Liu Sanniang sensed were filled with regret. In her memory, Liu Shun’s mother hit Liu Shun and forced him to study because he was not doing well at school. Later on, Liu Shun really liked studying, but he had already changed drastically.

In front of his mother, he was docile.

However, in secret, he was terrifyingly sinister. He hoped to destroy everything beautiful.

Liu Shun’s mother only knew that she had raised a monster before she died, so she was very regretful.

Wu Ju gently chanted the scriptures, and the resentment on Liu Shun’s mother dissipated.

Liu Sanniang looked at Wu Ju.

Wu Ju smiled at her and turned to leave. He came only to remind Liu Sanniang to find the evil in Liu Shun’s heart.

What was the evil in Liu Shun’s heart?

When Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan came out, Wu Changxian looked at Liu Sanniang and asked expectantly. “Miss Liu, did you find anything?”

Liu Sanniang looked at Xia Hongyuan, who was sitting not far away. “The criminal, Liu Shun, was executed, but he’s still alive.”

Xia Hongyuan’s expression was calm. Under Liu Sanniang’s gaze, he said, “When Hui Zhen was alive, in order to please me, she used a mystic technique to keep Liu Shun alive and changed his appearance. After 1 discovered his identity, 1 chased him away. I will definitely not do evil with him.”

Sooner or later, Liu Shun’s identity would be exposed. Xia Hongyuan explained it openly to prevent this matter from affecting his reputation in the future.

Liu Shun had become a criminal. With so many psychics around, they would catch him sooner or later.

Xia Hongyuan had long abandoned Liu Shun, so he naturally would not let Liu Shun or his actions implicate him.

Wu Changxian said, “Liu Shun is vicious and his methods are extremely cruel. Before this, he had already killed several people.”

Thinking of Liu Shun’s torture methods, Wu Changxian felt a chill run down his spine. He would probably only know how Liu Shun had such power after capturing him.

Boom!

With an explosion, the ground shook. Everyone looked in the direction of the prison.

Soon, a Cloud Breaking Sect disciple came out. He said calmly, “We’ve already saved them. Everyone, help.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the madams who were waiting anxiously quickly went in. Soon, sorrowful cries and the sobbing of the young ladies could be heard.

They were helped out one by one. Nine of the ten young ladies were still alive, and one could not be saved. They were all frightened, and their eyes were filled with tears as they sobbed their eyes out..
