Chapter 1820: Power of the Kingly Aura
“This, you do not need to doubt,” said Ying Su in a confident, resounding tone. The listeners could not help but want to believe her.
The two siblings looked at each other. They then dropped to their knees. “From today onwards, Miss is us brother and sister’s master.”
Ning Shu: …
The heroine was so cool and domineering. All she had to do was release a bit of her kingly aura, and lo and behold, she got two subordinates.
Just acting cool for a bit was all it took.
Ning Shu was not convinced at all. How the frick did this work?
The brother and sister were from another country. The man was called Pei Yuan, while the sister’s name was Pei Zhen.
Ying Su gave Pei Yuan a few taels of silver and said, “First, find a place to settle down. Two days later, I’ll give you a large sum of money. Pei Zhen will go back to the Feng family with me.”
“Feng family?” Pei Yuan froze for a moment, his facial color a little ugly. “Feng Chang?”
“So, Miss is a member of the Feng family?” asked Pei Zhen in a hurry.
Ying Su narrowed her eyes. “Could it be that you have a grudge against the Feng family?”
Pei Yuan knelt and said to Ying Su, “Thank you, Miss, for saving us from such a crisis. We, brother and sister, will certainly return this money to you. Please forgive us for not being able to serve Miss.”
Ying Su didn’t move from her spot. “Tell me, what’s going on?”
“Our father died because of Feng Chang,” said Pei Yuan.
In short, the two countries were at war. Pei Yuan’s father lost a battle, so he was questioned by the emperor. As per norms of the court, his competitors fanned the flames, pinning the whole blame on him. The matter snowballed to treason, and Pei Yuan’s father was beheaded. The siblings’ mother lured the enemy away to give them a chance at survival.
The brother and sister were hunted the whole way on their journey. In the end, when they were on the verge of death, they got caught by slave traffickers.
After hearing this, Ying Su said indifferently, “I have never considered myself a member of the Feng family. In fact, my situation in the Feng family is no better than yours.”
“Only by standing at the peak could you achieve your heart’s wishes. Revenge requires power,” said Ying Su.
“When the time comes, I’ll definitely not stop you from wanting to take revenge. Our goals are the same.”
The Pei family siblings looked at each other. Eventually, Pei Yuan accepted Ying Su’s silver. “I hope Miss can keep her word. When the time comes, please don’t stop us from taking revenge.”
“I won’t.”
Pei Yuan took the silver and disappeared. Pei Zhen stayed behind to serve Ying Su as a maid.
Ning Shu: …
The frick? Their father had lost the war, but they put part of the blame on the Feng family?
It was the emperor and ministers of their country who had killed their father.
Even if they knew that this matter had nothing to do with the Feng family, their minds refused to accept the fact. They had transferred part of the hatred to the Feng family.
Still, the two siblings eventually helped the hero and heroine to unify the continent. In doing so, they were also able to get full revenge on the former country.
Ning Shu watched Ying Su boldly accept Pei Zhen. She even had her stay at the Feng family residence as a maid.
Why was Ying Su so hostile to the Feng family? Even if there was hostility, it should belong to the original host.
She had picked up a body for free and vowed to avenge the original host.
Now, if Ning Shu asked her not to take revenge, she would most probably again scold her by calling her a coward, huh…
It felt like the Feng family was Ying Su’s newbie village for fighting monsters. The problem was that all kinds of idiots would go up to her to provoke her. Then, she would solve it with just a wave of her hand.
If there was something she couldn’t resolve on her own, a powerful man would appear to help her.
