Rebirth of the Heavenly Empress

Chapter 395: Scheming Queen

Moreover, Murong Bai—who was standing beside Hua Guangxuan—had no intention of stopping him.

Initially, they didn’t mind Su Huiqing coming along.

It didn’t make sense that the three of them couldn’t protect a single ordinary person.

However, now that there were three more people, including Su Huiqing; there were four of them. This made things difficult.

Upon hearing this, Yu Shijin—who had been flipping through his book—glanced at the two of them and smiled mildly. “It’s fine. Just do your own thing then. Don’t bother about them.”

Hua Guangxuan felt his scalp tingle. “Don’t care? How can I not care? They are Sister-in-law and Sister-in-law’s friends! I will protect them even if I have to die! Old Yu, how can you be so heartless?!”

“Are you done?” Yu Shijin closed his book and looked up at Hua Guangxuan mildly.

Yu Shijin’s face was as handsome as ever, but Hua Guangxuan could still see the coldness in his eyes.

He jumped back in shock. “Alright, alright. Protect them if you want. I don’t believe that the famous God of War overseas can’t protect four ordinary people!”

With that, he closed the door and dragged Murong Bai out.

“Hey, tell me.” Hua Guangxuan patted his chest in fear. “The three of us are on the same level as the school. Why are we so afraid of him? This doesn’t make sense.”

Murong Bai calmly retracted his hand and patted Hua Guangxuan’s shoulder with a sigh. He said sympathetically, “You have dug your own grave. You have to fill it up even if you have to kneel.”

“What?” Hua Guangxuan was dumbstruck.

“Have you forgotten?” Murong Bai’s voice was very gentle, and his face was still smiling. “You just said in front of him that you will protect those four people even if you die.”

Hua Guangxuan looked like he had been struck by lightning.

“Murong, you’ve changed. You weren’t like this before …” He looked at Murong Bai with a sad face. “Are you going to watch me die?”

“Don’t worry, I will watch you die.” Murong Bai patted his shoulder again. “The organization thinks very highly of you.”

Hua Guangxuan ignored Murong Bai and went to look for Yu Xiangyang and the rest.

“Are you playing Fight the Landlord?” Su Huiqing asked.

Although Hua Guangxuan said that he didn’t want to, he accepted the cards honestly. When he sat on the chair, he sighed at the sky. When did he become so depraved? At such a time, he still had the mood to play Fight the Landlord?

“Why do you look like you have been tortured by life for just a few minutes?” Su Huiqing sat on a seat by the window. She held her cards with one hand and looked at Hua Guangxuan with raised brows.

Hua Guangxuan sighed and was about to mention Yu Shijin and Murong Bai.

Su Huiqing replied with a smile, “Tell us so we can be happy?”

Hua Guangxuan immediately retracted his words.

Really, why did he feel that Su Huiqing was being kind?

While Murong Bai … he was obviously led astray by this bunch of people!

“To be honest, did something happen to you recently?” Yu Xiangyang was really puzzled. Through the past few days of interaction, he also knew the background of Hua Guangxuan and Murong Bai. Because they were Su Huiqing’s friends, Hua Guangxuan and the rest could not hide it from him.

Hua Guangxuan glanced at him and felt that Yu Xiangyang was the only one who was sincere. Hence, he sighed again. “Can you not be with us?”

“Why?” Yu Xiangyang took out his own water bottle and took a sip.

Hua Guangxuan looked at the bottle and naturally knew that it was a bottle that Yu Xiangyang, Gu Li, and the rest had. Initially, he thought that this bottle contained wine. However, when Gu Li mentioned it, he realized that it was just water. He lost interest in this bottle.

Seeing that Hua Guangxuan was staring at his bottle, Yu Xiangyang generously offered to share. “Do you want a sip?”

Hua Guangxuan immediately declined and continued his own topic. “I’m serious. If you can leave, leave quickly. Don’t follow us. It’s too dangerous.”

“What danger could there be?” Yu Xiangyang waved his hand. They had already experienced the level six mutant beasts. Could they be afraid of anything else?

Seeing Yu Xiangyang’s reaction, Hua Guangxuan felt bitter.

Previously, he had already used Yu Xiangyang’s words and knew that they were students from Green City who had entered the International Association. They were ordinary people with extremely clean backgrounds.

They had a rule overseas that they could not interfere with the order of the secular world. What could he say? If he told Yu Xiangyang that he could not leave with them because there would be monsters who wanted to eat them up, would Yu Xiangyang think that he was a fool?

Seeing that Yu Shijin and Murong Bai didn’t care about the safety of these four ordinary people, Hua Guangxuan felt that these two people were bewitched.

Did they really think that these four ordinary people could survive? To be honest, if not for Yu Shijin, he wouldn’t dare to go alone.

If an ordinary person could survive … wouldn’t that be a fantasy?
