Chapter 54: Ke Ruan Must Die

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

Qi Cheng bit his lips – Qingye looked happy to see him alive.

“Brother Qingye, do you still remember me?”

Lin Qingye was speechless and took a few steps back, “Let’s talk about that later. Where is Young Master?”

Qi Cheng stared at him for a long time and answered, “Brother Qingye, are you really going to put Ke Ruan in the first palce and talk about my matter later?”

The hands hidden behind his back were trembling slightly.

Lin Qingye, “Yes!”

Qi Cheng’s mouth tilted upwards slightly at the corners with ruthlesness and stubbornness flitting across his face, “But Brother Qingye, matters that concerns about me should be the most important to you. Moreover, Ke Ruan must die.”

He sat on the chair again, with one foot casually resting on it, “Guards, take them down and lock them up.”

A man behind Lin Qingye said, “General, we need to fight our way out to find Young Master.”

Previously, they did hate Ke Ruan and thought that he was not capable to be the Crown Prince. However, after getting along with him these days, they found that Ke Ruan had not only changed his bad temper, but also showed respect to every of them. The most impressive thing was that they felt being treated as his equal. Right. Talking to Ke Ruan gave them the feeling of talking to a person of the same status.

Qi Cheng sneered and said, “Brother Qingye, I have so many men here. No matter how powerful you are, you won’t get any advantage in hand-to-hand combat. Are you going to sacrifise your soldiers for nothing?”

“General, we are not afraid of death. We must save Young Master.”

“Yes, we do not fear to die.”

“Death is nothing!”

Qi Cheng clenched the arms of his chair, veins popping out on his hands. Why? Why were they all willing to sacrifice their lives for Ke Ruan, a loser? Even Brother Qingye was willing to do so. The royals deserved to die! They took away his family. Now the only royal descendant even wanted to take away Brother Qingye. Damn it!

Lin Qingye waved his hand. Although saving Young Master was important, he couldn’t watch his men die here. It seemed that Young Master was still alive, so the plan of rescuing him could be given a further thought.

Qi Cheng gave a slight smile, “Bring them down.”

Lin Qingye hunkered on the ground, frowning and thinking.

“General, is this Qi Cheng…” the speaker dared not continue, as that was something that no one dared to mention in Red Flame Kingdom.

“We need to find Young Master. If Young Master is caught by Qi Cheng, I’m afraid things will get tricky.”

“Yes!”

But now that they were kept here, they couldn’t go out and didn’t know where to find Young Master.

When the first ray of sunlight shone in the morning, Si Yuhan opened his eyes at once, maintaining the same posture when he fell asleep last night. He moved and felt a sharp pain. Then, he pulled Ke Ruan’s hand away and streched.

After that, he looked at Ke Ruan, who still hadn’t woken up, and shocked – Ke Ruan’s face was pale and his lips had lost their color.

He stood, frozen in his stance. He didn’t know why he didn’t have the courage to touch him or check his breathing.

It wouldn’t happen. Ke Ruan was tough. How could he die here overnight? No way. That was impossible

Si Yuhan stretched out his hands, trambling, and despised himself: how could he be so useless? But if Ke Ruan was dead for real, that would be good. His purpose was to make him die anyway.
