Qiu Ziqin looked at Hong Yu, who remained silent, and understood her fate.
After hesitating for only two or three seconds, he knelt on the ground and pleaded, "Duke of Wei, I am willing to accept the slave seal."
Qiu Ziqin's words were abrupt and astonishing.
Hong Yu was the most surprised.
Having just arrived, she didn't know what had happened.
Now, Qiu Ziqin, who had the same cultivation as her, was kneeling and telling Mo Yunxuan that he wanted to accept the slave seal!
She couldn't understand!
What was happening in this world?
Why couldn't she understand anything?
However, she wisely refrained from interrupting and quietly continued to watch.
Mo Yunxuan's surprise was no less than Hong Yu's. Even though he had said he would place a slave seal on her, it was just a whim, or perhaps a fleeting desire.
He hadn't expected her to actually agree.
This made him wonder why Qiu Ziqin was doing this.
However, Qiu Ziqin's next words cleared his doubts.
"Duke of Wei, I am willing to accept the slave seal."
"But I recently took in a disciple to pass on my legacy. I hope Duke of Wei can show him leniency and spare his life."
This statement caught Mo Yunxuan's attention, and he looked at Qiu Ziqin again.
Looking at this "old maid" with the aura of a perfect wife, he couldn't help but think: Tsk, so this is the "Master" in Chong Shi Ni Tu. Her figure and appearance truly befit the role of a Female Lead. Earning a Female Lead slave for free, I'm not at a loss.
"Alright, I promise you. Come over and accept the slave brand now."
Mo Yunxuan said it readily, not stingy with his promises.
After all, in his eyes, once she accepted the slave mark, Qiu Ziqin would belong to him completely.
As for the promise, what Li Tieniu did couldn't be attributed to him, Mo Yunxuan, right!
Hearing Mo Yunxuan's promise, Qiu Ziqin felt a slight reprieve.
He lifted his jade leg, which felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, and slowly walked towards Mo Yunxuan.
This made Ye Chen, who was in the crowd, extremely anxious. This was his Master!
The Master he had always dreamed of!
How could he become someone else's slave!
Ye Chen, who had always regarded Qiu Ziqin as his forbidden plaything, could no longer hold back.
He stepped out of the crowd and shouted towards Qiu Ziqin, "Master, no!"
"My life is worthless. How can I let you sacrifice yourself for my safety?"
Seeing that Ye Chen was willing to give up his life so that she wouldn't become someone else's slave, Qiu Ziqin was deeply moved.
His eyes instantly turned red, and he said softly, "Don't worry, disciple. Your Master is doing this willingly. You don't need to dwell on it."
Mo Yunxuan watched Ye Chen push his way out of the crowd. He knew that
from the moment he besieged Taihua Academy, the hatred between him and Ye Chen had been sealed.
It was either you die or I die.
Moreover, the moment Ye Chen jumped out, Mo Yunxuan received a simulated script from the System's deduction.
According to the virtual plot, this Ye Chen would pursue the path of the Double Subject Examination, and then, without any surprise, he would become the Top Scholar of Double Subjects, gain the Empress's appreciation, and be appointed Grand General.
Ye Chen, a newcomer, had no connections, no resources, and no army. He was a complete shell.
To showcase his abilities, he would naturally target the previous incarnation, who was honest and easy to bully.
In the virtual plot, Ye Chen would use the Empress's name to arbitrarily demand resources, while the previous incarnation, strictly adhering to ancestral teachings, would remain loyal to the Grand General and naturally not refuse his requests.

Later, Ye Chen would become even more aggressive, gradually inching forward and encroaching on the army's control.
The grand Wei State Duke Mansion was hollowed out into a mere shell.
His previous incarnation, who should have been surrounded by attendants, ended up a lonely person.
He never received Ye Chen's gratitude or compensation before his death.
So, you see! He and Ye Chen were bitter enemies. This was true even without the current siege of Taihua Academy.
How could he possibly let Ye Chen go!
Ye Chen must die. Mo Yunxuan declared it!
No one could stop him!
He had no interest in watching Qiu Ziqin and Ye Chen's deep master-disciple affection. Impatiently, he said:
"Vice Dean Qiu, if you're unwilling, just say so. Dawdling wastes time."
Without waiting for her reaction, he casually waved his hand and uttered a simple word: "Kill."
The 30 Void Refinement Realm Elite Vanguard soldiers surrounding Taihua Academy charged into the crowd.
A mere flick of their weapons could easily claim a dozen lives.
The people of Taihua Academy had no time to dodge before becoming lost souls under the blades.
All that remained were cries of mercy.
"No! No! I don't want to die!"
"Duke of Wei! I'm willing to accept the slave seal, don't kill me!"
"Damn it, Qiu Ziqin, you're a jinx!"
"Fuck! Damn Ye Chen, I'll wait for you in hell!"
Everyone present was stunned by the sudden slaughter.
Even the generals of the Left and Right Wei Guard were shocked.
They had initially thought this was just a show, that only the main culprits would be punished. They never expected a complete massacre.
However, they didn't find the Duke of Wei's actions cruel for killing people.
On the contrary, in their eyes, to lead elite soldiers like them, Setting aside strength requirements, one at least needed the courage to kill ten thousand men to be considered a true hero.
Mo Yunxuan's actions now did not displease them.
Instead, it made them feel Mo Yunxuan was decisive and ruthless, which suited their tastes perfectly.
Hong Yu saw this and quickly tried to interject: "Duke of Wei, this..."
Unfortunately, when he looked up and saw Mo Yunxuan's calm eyes, The words he wanted to say ultimately remained unspoken.
He sighed inwardly:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's not that I'm not stopping him, but that I cannot!"
In a short while, all over a thousand people from Taihua Academy were slaughtered.
Only Qiu Ziqin and Ye Chen remained.
However, the Elite Vanguard soldiers had already surrounded them and were slowly closing in.
Ye Chen's heart was in turmoil, he couldn't breathe, filled with anxiety and fear.
He deeply regretted it now, regretting that he could have escaped just now, But because of his lust, he had forced himself to step forward.
He insisted on staging a scene of deep master-disciple affection before the Duke of Wei.
But the Duke of Wei not only didn't care, but because he lost patience watching, he directly ordered a massacre.
It was simply... insane!
Mo Yunxuan waved his hand, and the 30 soldiers surrounding Qiu Ziqin and his disciple stopped.
They stared intently at them, as if watching meat on a chopping block.
The long sabers in their hands were still dripping with warm blood.
Ye Chen was so terrified by the chilling scene that he collapsed onto the ground, Leaving a large wet patch behind him.
