Taking the Blame for Me

In the prison, Tao Yuan anxiously asked Qin Rang, "Their life force is getting weaker and weaker. Should we take action?"

Qin Rang tightened the Evil Ghost Mask, thought for a moment, then abandoned the risky idea of using it and instead used Colorless Fire.

Although the Colorless Fire is his greatest secret and he rarely uses it, the effects of other Weird Objects probably cannot break the deadlock.

If there are no more Dream Points, you can't start over. If a teammate dies, he'll regret it for the rest of his life.

Colorless Fire silently landed on the lock, quickly melting the chains and easily opening the cell door without a sound.

At this moment, Wang seemed to sense something and turned to look at him.

The moment those grey eyes met his gaze, Qin Rang's thoughts momentarily drifted.

What was he thinking just now?

Oh, right, I was thinking that he absolutely cannot use Colorless Fire. If he gets discovered, the tragedy of his teammates being ambushed before will happen again.

He withdrew his gaze, concealing his achievements and fame.

Just as the Bai Ao was about to deliver its third blow, hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the door.

"Eldest Miss, Madam has returned and is looking for the Young Master and the Second Young Master!"

The sound startled the Bai Ao awake. He looked at An Ying under the knife, pulled his hand back as if he had been electrocuted, and stared at his hand in disbelief.

He seems to have misjudged the situation; An Ying was not invaded by the [eye].

Why did he feel like he was being invaded by an [eye] just now?

Sheng Qingqiao finally got a brief respite from the Rules.

The Eldest Miss frowned. "Why is she back now? Wasn't she visiting Count Difu's House today?"

The servant, head bowed and looking uneasy, said, "I don't know what happened; he seemed to be in a great hurry! He came back to find you!"

Having watched the show for quite some time, Wang, somewhat bored, slowly spoke up, "Big Brother is still in the Castle, Eldest Sister. Do you really think he doesn't know about this Secret Chamber you built, or what you're doing here?"

With a single glance from the Eldest Miss, the servant who had delivered the message bowed and left, closing the door behind him.

"What do you mean by this, young man?"

Wang idly toyed with the rope between his fingers, grinning as he said, "Kill as many as you want today. Once my elder brother and mother see my Second Older Brother and me dead here, I wonder if they'll still keep you in the Castle."

"Eldest Sister, you probably don't want to give up your comfortable life as a noble lady to live the hardships of a commoner, do you?"

The Eldest Miss turned and walked step by step to him, bending down with a cold laugh, "What, not going to pretend with me today?"

"Wang, I told you long ago, you always pretend you don't want anything, but actually, you also want to inherit the title and become the heir to the Count's Estate, right?"

Wang shook his head. "You're wrong, that's never what I wanted."

"Ridiculous!"

The Eldest Miss slowly rose, looking down at him with her striking red dress. "We were all born of our fathers and mothers; when it comes to ambition, no one is any less than the other."

"You're saying my older brother will tell on me to Mother?"

"Do you think I didn't consider this when I brought you here?"

"So what if Mother comes back? Guess why I'm keeping you here? These are all my men. When the time comes, I just need to find a few witnesses, and you'll be the one who killed them all."

"But I am the one who saved others."

The Second Young Master couldn't believe it. "Eldest Sister, are you really going to kill me? I'm your own brother!"

"Don't you know why I'm killing you?"

The Eldest Miss walked to his side, kicked him hard in the stomach with her toe, the sharp tip of her shoe pressing against his abdomen, crushing and ravaging it forcefully.

"If you had behaved, I wouldn't have made a move on you now. But you were the one who had those inappropriate thoughts."

The Second Young Master had never been treated like this before. He was trembling with pain and began to beg for mercy after only a few moments.

"Useless thing. Look at the one next to you. I hurt his eye when he was little, and he didn't utter a sound."

The Eldest Miss pressed her entire weight onto the shoe, grinding it repeatedly with force. "What a pity, I didn't go blind, and I was even healed."

The Second Young Master's pleas for mercy turned into a struggle. "If you kill me, Father and Mother will never let you get away with it!"

Seeing the blood gushing from the Second Young Master's abdomen, Wang smiled and said, "Second Older Brother, you're wrong. Father and Mother won't care about the fate of the loser."

"The reason my Eldest Sister targeted my eyes is because Eldest Sister wanted to poison my older brother, and I discovered it."

The Eldest Miss clicked her tongue and shook her head. "It's a good thing you're the youngest. If that stupid older brother were like you, I'm afraid I really wouldn't be able to outmaneuver him."

With each effort she exerted, more and more blood gushed from the Second Young Master's abdomen, and he went from hurling insults and threats to intermittently begging for mercy. But the more he begged, the more excited the Eldest Miss became.

Wang coldly watched the two of them, and just before the Second Young Master was about to breathe his last, he gave a wink to An Ying, who was tied to the chair.

An Ying was taken aback, then turned her head to meet the gazes of Qin Rang and the others who were resting in the prison and watching them.

With a exchange of glances, the group understood each other's intentions.

[I was so nervous watching this]

[Ahhh, Second Young Master, don't die!]

[The Second Young Master has clearly been used as a pawn.]

[This Eldest Miss is so vicious; she fought and snatched things, and even killed so many people.]

[But I've heard that this kind of thing was quite common back then; murder to seize a title was all too normal.]

[Now I want to know, what's going on with this Young Master? Why is he helping the Calamity Crossing Squad? I thought he was some kind of weirdo.]

[Here we go again, how do you understand eye contact like that?]

[Luo Jiayu probably doesn't understand; her eyes reveal a clear naiveté.]

[The encrypted language of the Calamity Crossing Squad, hahaha]

Only when the Second Young Master's breathing gradually weakened and he stopped struggling did the Eldest Miss lift her foot.

Only then did everyone notice the protruding blade on the tip of the Eldest Miss's shoe.

The dripping blood from the blade stained her leather shoes red. The Eldest Miss turned to Wang, leaning down. "Little brother, do you think... you'll be so lucky to escape this time?"

Looking directly into her eyes, he said, "Eldest Sister, I truly consider you my older Older Sister."

The Eldest Miss's lips twitched. "Are you trying to disgust me to death?"

No, I'm really grateful to you.

Wang suddenly stood up, and the ropes binding him scattered around him.

The Eldest Miss didn't seem surprised and let him get close to her ear.

His grey eyes, like dusty gems in the candlelight, occasionally glimpsed a fleeting, dazzling brilliance when illuminated by the candlelight.

"Thank you for taking the blame for me."

His voice was barely audible. After uttering a single sentence, he exchanged a glance with the person behind him and quickly retreated.

Behind the Eldest Miss, Tao Yuan Weird Object Chainsaw hand and smashed it down on the Eldest Miss's head with all her might!

"Thump!" A loud noise knocked the Eldest Miss to the ground instantly.

The sound made Wang tremble involuntarily. He looked at the Eldest Miss lying on the ground with her head sunken in a large clump, his face showing pity.

"Walk!"

Sheng Qingqiao grabbed Wang and ran towards the door.
