Rebirth of the Heavenly Empress

Chapter 193: Go Back On Your Word

Su Huiqing was awake even before the cold water made contact with her face.

She blinked.

Her long lashes fluttered.

Very discreetly, she observed her surroundings.

They were inside a car, and the destination was probably where she wished to go.

Dugu Wu was also awake. Her expression shifted the moment she noticed that she was all tied up. She glared at the person in front. “Who are you guys? How dare you kidnap me?!”

The driver and the person sitting beside him both had centipede-shaped scars down the side of their faces.

They looked very intimidating.

But they ignored her for now, but just complained. “Damn, why are there so many policemen out and about?!”

According to their original plan, they should have already reached their destination.

“If you don’t release me now, my father and brother will never let you off!” Dugu Wu noticed the line of police cars in front of them. She couldn’t resist raising her brows and smirking.

“Are these policemen all looking for you?” One of the scarred men turned to glare at Dugu Wu.

“Of course. You have kidnapped the Young Mistress of the Dugu Family.” Dugu Wu lifted her chin proudly.

The scarred man frowned before looking at Su Huiqing. “Then you are Su Huiqing?”

Su Huiqing lowered her eyes, pretending to be too afraid to look up.

She just nodded.

No one noticed the chilly glint in her lowered eyes.

The scarred man swore. Those people had given them instructions to kidnap the girl called Su Huiqing. However, their description of her was unclear and looking at both Dugu Wu and Su Huiqing, they had no idea who was who. As a result, they just captured them both.

They never expected to have captured a ticking time bomb like Dugu Wu!

He couldn’t help spewing out a string of expletives.

“We can’t shake off all these policemen.” Those two scarred men exchanged looks before turning toward Dugu Wu. “We will find a place to release you. Can you make those policemen leave?”

Dugu Wu chuckled. “Of course.”

She turned to look scornfully at Su Huiqing, who was still shivering in fear.

“Alright.” The scarred man carefully evaded a police car and drove forward.

They came to a stop outside an ordinary-looking residential area.

“Dark Angel Zuo, we have brought the person here.” The two scarred men kneeled before a black-robed figure. “However, we also wrongly kidnapped another person and attracted the International Police.”

The black-robed man turned around and gazed at Su Huiqing and Dugu Wu. He fixed pondering eyes on Dugu Wu. “The Yu Family mobilized such a major force just because of you?”

The Yu Family?

Both Dugu Wu and Su Huiqing were shocked at hearing his question.

Su Huiqing pursed her lips. She could obviously hear the never-ending car engines sounds surrounding them. She really didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

But she quickly composed herself.

She would soon arrive at her final destination once they leave this place.

Meanwhile, Dugu Wu had a very different reaction.

She thought these were Dugu Family’s people, and never expected it to be the Yu Family’s. Dugu Wu recalled that image she saw on the screen previously. That cool, aloof Yu Shijin and that fighter jet that could come and go as it pleased. Her eyes wavered.

“Now that you know this, you still refuse to release me?” Dugu Wu gazed smugly at the black-robed man.

The black-robed man glanced down at Su Huiqing, who had her head lowered and was shivering.

He couldn’t help frowning. How was this person, who had already reached Song San’s level of talent, so weak?

But he didn’t have time to ponder over this now, and just replied, “Don’t worry. We will not harm you. But we will have to trouble Ms Dugu to accompany us for part of the journey.”

Meanwhile at the Dugu Family residence.

“Little Heng, you must definitely save Little Wu. You know she is my life!” The Dugu Family matriarch was sobbing so hard that it looked as if she might faint any moment.

Faced with her crying, Dugu Heng had no choice but to accede. “Alright, I will go contact Dugu.”

“Have him bring me along.” The Dugu Family matriarch naturally knew who he was referring to.

In this world, the Number One Intelligence Agency possessed the most information in the world.

Even Yu Shijin and Song San could not compare.

When Dugu Heng sought out Dugu, he thought that he would not assent.

But to his surprise, Dugu agreed to it without qualms.

As he drove the Dugu Family matriarch over to find Dugu Wu, he observed the changes in the surroundings.

He noticed the large number of international policemen scurrying about.

As well as the fighter jets flying the skies endlessly.

Even the common citizens could feel a strange vibe in the air.

Dark Angel Zuo constructed a disguise and successfully led the people out of the International Association borders. Just as he was about to bring them away, Dugu steered his car over and blocked his way.

“Dugu?” Dark Angel Zuo alighted from his car. He behaved as if he knew Dugu.

His expression was grim.

Dugu Yusheng stood in front of the car, handsome and dashing. “Release them.”

He had come today with the intention of observing the whole spectacle.

The amount of activity this generated was just too major.

Yu Shijin’s dramatic moves were probably a direct slap to Song San’s face.

Such that even he had come out to enjoy the entire hoo-ha.

Dark Angel Zuo gritted his teeth, one hand still holding onto Dugu Wu. “How can I be sure that you won’t go back on your word after I let her go?!”

Dugu Wu was his personal guarantee.

“You still have my schoolmate in your hands.” Dugu Wu lowered his eyes and chuckled. “With her as your hostage, what are you still worried about?”

Dark Angel Zuo looked at Dugu Wu. Half a second later, he pushed her toward Dugu Yusheng. “I have released her. Let’s go.”

Was Dugu Wu the one Yu Shijin wished to save?

Dugu Yusheng glanced at Dugu Wu and thought: Then he must have really poor taste.

“Little Wu, are you alright?” The Dugu Family matriarch’s face turned dark when she noticed the red marks on Dugu Wu’s body. “Did they hurt you?”

“Grandma, I was nearly beaten to death.” Dugu Wu threw herself into her grandma’s arms.

The Dugu Family matriarch had always doted on this only descendant of hers. She coldly instructed her men. “Blow that vehicle up!”

“Wait a minute.” Dugu Yusheng frowned and shot her a sharp look. “There is still a Monster University student inside that car.”

“Just a commoner.” The Dugu Family matriarch remained unconcerned. “She is doomed even if we don’t blow the car up. At least by destroying it, we can seek some revenge for my granddaughter.”

At that, she turned and commanded. “What are you still standing there for? Blow it up.”
