Su Yingxue was momentarily pacified.

She looked at Zhifen and recalled Su Ilan’s intention to reconcile, saying, “Grandpa, since my sister has decided to divorce, let Zhifen tell everyone about what happened to my sister in the Regional Prince’s Mansion so that everyone can understand and avoid tarnishing her reputation.”

Zhifen gratefully kowtowed to Su Yingxue. “1 thank Miss Yingxue!”

Su Yingxue helped her up and encouraged her to continue recounting Su Ilan’s experiences in the Regional Prince’s Mansion.

Zhifen wiped away her tears and tried to keep her voice clear. “After Miss returned to the Regional Prince’s Mansion following the surgery, she has been subjected to constant torment. Your Highness tortured her, and Madam Sheng and Min Jia County Lord were even…”

Zhifen’s torrent of words made Chu Xiaotian feel as if he had been skinned alive. He hung his head in guilt.

“Despite holding the title of Regional Princess, she was made to do menial tasks like a servant. She barely had three hours of rest each day, doing laundry, cleaning, tending to the garden, and even kitchen chores. With injuries on her body, she was exhausted daily. Were it not for Miss Yingxue’s healing medicine, she would have succumbed to infection and fever in the mansion long ago. Despite this, Min Jia County Lord and Madam Sheng continued to torment her! They would come to bully and beat her, leaving her skin marred.”

Zhifen’s words hit the hall like a thunderbolt.

Su Qingzhi’s eyes turned red with anger. “Unbelievable!”

The daughter of the Su family was subjected to such humiliation by her husband’s family!

Su Dingwei wanted to kill Chu Xiaotian on the spot, but his servants restrained him.

Su Yingxue’s face darkened, with half of it obscured in shadow, making her expression unreadable but exuding a frightening malice.

Approaching Chu Xiaotian, she removed the needle from his throat.

Chu Xiaotian let out a long sigh of relief but looked at Su Yingxue with fear in his eyes. “Su Yingxue, what are you planning? How dare you lay hands on me? I…”

Before he could finish his threat, Su Yingxue sealed his meridians and forced poison into his mouth.

It was a recent concoction by Saint Ruan. Non-lethal, but causing excruciating pain as every meridian in his body broke, akin to being crushed.

However, he wouldn’t die!

Before long, Chu Xiaotian collapsed, coughing up blood, his face reddening as if his eyes were about to bulge out, presenting a horrifying sight.

Su Xinlan covered her mouth in shock. “Su Yingxue, you… you’ve killed someone! He’s the Regional Prince!”

The Imperial family’s bloodline!

Su Yingxue’s eyes held an unyielding coldness. “He won’t die, but he will suffer immensely. He’ll taste all the pain my sister endured!”

At the entrance of an alley outside the Regional Prince’s Mansion, three groups confronted each other.

“Step aside!” Zi Wei dragged the unconscious Su Han and coldly ordered the two groups in front.

“Release Miss Su Han. I’m here on Miss Su and Your Highness’s orders to take her back to the Marquis’s Mansion!” Mo Qi declared his intentions to Zi Wei.

Knowing Zi Wei’s formidable martial prowess and lethal nature, snatching Su Han from him was futile.

Yet, Su Han must be brought back.

Zi Wei only obeyed Su Yingxue’s commands, showing indifference with a hint of killing intent. “Step aside.”

Su Jinxuan, concealed under a black veil, lurked in the shadows, observing Min Jia’s men battling Mo Qi and awaiting the opportune moment.

With the need to fend off both Mo Qi and another group of assailants targeting Su Han, Zi Wei found it increasingly challenging.

He positioned Su Han behind him and unleashed a fierce sword strike, forcing everyone to step back..
