Exile after Divorce? Empty the Scumbag Husband First!-Chapter 214 - 211: Qi Nanfeng Trembles! Begging for Mercy Without Pause
In his youth, the elder of the Qi Family made many moves, and only after much effort managed to arrange for Qi Nanfeng to go to school through connections.
However, less than a year into his studies, Qi Nanfeng dropped out and fled the academy.
Moreover, Elder Zhang was not only his teacher, but had also once saved his life.
Seeing Zhang Dao Yan now with four Dragon Gate Nails driven into his bone marrow, Qi Nanfeng’s eyes tightened, and he knelt down in panic!
"Princess! Elder Zhang was once my teacher, a teacher for a day is a father for life! I must not be forced to commit this cruel act! Besides, the Princess knows that when I fell into the water as a child, it was Elder Zhang who..."
But before he could finish, the Fifth Princess suddenly laughed out loud, interrupting him: "How come I don’t know, when did you, Qi Nanfeng, become so sentimental?"
"If you cannot bear to do it, this Princess will not make it difficult for you. Men, seize him and imprison him in the Water Prison as a criminal, and choose a day for execution."
Qi Nanfeng’s body shook! He begged for mercy without stopping.
The Fifth Princess couldn’t stand his current wretched appearance. Remembering she had once shared a bed with such a man, she kicked him far away!!
She threw the sharp dagger in front of him and called someone to bring an incense burner, lighting the incense: "Begin."
Qi Nanfeng trembled all over, holding his dagger, he slowly walked to Elder Zhang.
At this moment, Elder Zhang, with the blades of the Dragon Gate Nails constantly scraping his wounds, was tortured beyond recognition.
Yet those eyes were incomparably clear and firm!
He slowly raised his head, his gaze directly meeting Qi Nanfeng’s, like a blade gleaming with cold light, immediately causing Qi Nanfeng’s heart to burn with agony.
Beside him, Elder Zhang’s weak voice could be heard: "Nanfeng, it’s been a long time."
"Back when your family’s elder sent you to school, he said you were a mischievous child, but kind-hearted and clever, as long as I could guide you well, open the door to learning for you, your future in officialdom would be smooth... cough..."
"I remember many years ago when I pulled you from the icy pool, you clung to my neck, shouting, Teacher, I don’t want to die, I don’t want to die..."
Perhaps Elder Zhang was also thoroughly disappointed in Qi Nanfeng’s cowardice, his words were filled with sarcasm.
"I, Zhang Dao Yan, have taught countless students, among them are those who have sacrificed for the country, heroically; in times of chaos, there are countless heroes! But... I never thought, in my dying moments, the last student I’d see would be a narrow-minded, cowardly person, worse than pigs and dogs!"
Upon hearing those last two words, anger erupted in Qi Nanfeng’s eyes!
He couldn’t stand being looked down upon.
Now reduced to such a state, trampled by thousands, despised by all! Even the last bit of respect he had for his teacher was now crushed to dust by these words.
He suddenly gripped the dagger tightly, Elder Zhang’s mouth overflowed with blood, seeing the hidden princess, his emotions suddenly became agitated, even his voice was raised!
"The noble Eldest Princess of Da Jing, traveled thousands of miles to Xingjia, is it just to use me, an old fool, to lure out my An’er?!"
"You cannot kill him, nor seize the evidences of the crimes your treacherous faction committed! Da Jing’s land will never fall into your hands, you ungrateful, fratricidal villains!"
After these words, he choked on blood, coughing desperately.
The Fifth Princess sneered, looking directly at Qi Nanfeng.
Her oppressive gaze stirred up resentment within Qi Nanfeng, the anger accumulated in the depths of his heart, now all transformed into the strength of his fingers.
He gripped the dagger, without hesitation, and cut a piece of flesh from Elder Zhang’s arm!
Along with it, the tendons ruptured, causing Elder Zhang to cry out in pain!
But then, an extremely angry voice came from not far away: "Stop!!"
Qi Nanfeng was startled, realizing who it was, he immediately held up the candle to illuminate that corner.
Unexpectedly, Xie Huai’an was tied up there, looking like he had just awoken from medication, his eyes bloodshot, like a beast lurking in the night.
After a moment of fright, Qi Nanfeng immediately reverted to a nasty demeanor.
Remembering the hardships he suffered on this journey because of him, thinking of his intimate relationship with Ruan Mian, his urge for revenge burned up, and he laughed out loud.
"Oh... it’s Mr. Xie! You have fallen to such a state, what else do you have to say now?"
The princess looked at his arrogant face, only finding it amusing.
But Xie Huai’an’s urgency delighted her even more.
She slowly stepped out of the shadows, swinging her wide sleeves.
"Mr. Xie, you’ve made me expend much thought, preferring to endure the pain of demotion, but secretly working for my brother. Your loyalty is unmatched in the world."
"If not for your teacher’s misfortune today, how could you willingly walk into our trap from the Wuheng Land? That place is too harsh and distant, even I, with my precious body, wouldn’t want to venture there. Your coming to Xingjia is the best result."
She smiled slightly, lifted Xie Huai’an’s chin, looking at his handsome face, regretting even.
"It is such a pity, Mr. Xie, for your good looks, but, how about I give you a way out now?"
"As long as you abandon darkness for light, joining me to strengthen the arm of my and my third brother’s endeavors, I promise you a limitless future, great times ahead! I will also let your teacher live a peaceful life, sharing time with heaven."
"Abandon darkness for light? What is darkness, and what is light? With the Princess and King Yan harboring sinister intentions, you have already deviated from the Imperial Family’s original intent, the true darkness lies in your hands."
In order to seize the throne, how much blood have they stained their hands with, how many acts of atrocity have they committed?
If such people were to sit on the highest seat, it’s imaginable how many would suffer in misery.
If not because the Princess still holds merits, and they haven’t obtained direct evidence of their rebellion, how could the official tolerate them for so long?
The Fifth Princess’s smile waned, an indescribable malice flowed in her eyes.
"If so, then Mr. Xie, watch closely how your most respected teacher gets buried in our hands because of you."
Her mouth slightly curved, her gaze once again fell on Qi Nanfeng.
Qi Nanfeng temporarily set aside his intention to knife Xie Huai’an, turning towards where Elder Zhang was.
Yet unexpectedly, at this moment, Xie Huai’an suddenly broke free from the ropes that bound him! At lightning speed, he pressed the hidden mechanism on his wrist.
Only to see a sharp blade swiftly shoot out! Precisely piercing Qi Nanfeng’s back, penetrating flesh and driving into the bone marrow!
He immediately cried out a few times and collapsed to the ground.
The princess’s face changed drastically!
Unexpectedly, he wasn’t medicated?! He still had such skills!
In an instant, the two assassins beside her rapidly lunged towards Xie Huai’an.
Yet, Xie Huai’an, with his slender and thin hands, actually untied a Soft Sword from his waist, the sword hissed like a white snake, slicing through the air, like a dragon weaving, traversing through bodies!
He was as agile as a swallow, leaping with the sword, sometimes like lightning, flashing silver light, breaking the assassins’ incoming stances.
