Chapter 170: No More Relation
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Xue Fanxin learned from Little Lei that Su Baifeng was among the people mining outside. She asked with a naughty smile, “Ah Jiu, if the Heavenly Saints Emperor got an empty mine, what do you think the outcome would be?”
“The Prime Minister’s Estate will be in a lot of trouble.” Ye Jiushang had already guessed her plan. He himself felt that this was a good idea.
Although Gu Jinyuan had alerted the enemy and forced Prime Minister Su to report the mineral veins, allowing the Prime Minister’s Estate to escape a calamity, they could dig another pit and let them jump in.
“Ah Jiu, can you not smile so sinisterly? Are you sure you want to do this to the Prime Minister’s Estate? After all, Su Baifeng is your savior.” Thinking about the fact that Su Baifeng and Ye Jiushang still had a little gratitude between them, Xue Fanxin felt depressed.
This debt was the hardest to repay.
“Me not pursuing the matter of Draconic Lotus Intoxication can be considered to have repaid that favor. From now on, I have nothing to do with Su Baifeng.”
The Draconic Lotus Intoxication had caused him considerable harm. Had it not been for Little Xin’er’s blood, he would probably have died.
If Su Baifeng had not done him a favor, he would have definitely uprooted the entire Prime Minister’s Estate after that incident.
However, Su Baifeng still dared to send people to assassinate Little Xin’er. This debt had to be repaid, and the crystal mine was just the beginning.
Xue Fanxin could sense a wave of faint anger and killing intent from Ye Jiushang. Even though she knew that it was not targeted at her, she still felt a little afraid. Her entire body was so cold that she was trembling.
It seemed that Su Baifeng did not know how much the matter of Draconic Lotus Intoxication had affected her. She was really a pitiful and extremely stupid woman.
Su Baifeng indeed did not know how serious the consequences of Draconic Lotus Intoxication were. Ye Jiushang had not done anything to her, only destroying some of the factions under her command. Hence, she thought that Ye Jiushang could not bear to touch her, or even had feelings for her.
In that case, as long as she worked harder, she would definitely get what she wanted.
Little did she know that all of this was just her fantasizing.
No matter what Su Baifeng thought, Xue Fanxin did not care. They were destined to be on the opposite sides, and she had never been merciful to her enemies.
“Everyone, quickly dig up the mine. Leave only a little outside. Pay attention to your strength, and don’t alert the people outside. After finishing the work, I’ll treat everyone to a feast.”
Another feast… Little Lei expressed his disdain for Xue Fanxin’s method of gratitude.
This fool only cared about money and food. He really didn’t know why his master liked her.
“Go, mine all the crystal ores in this mine. Leave a little outside. Remember, you have to be gentle. You can’t cause too much noise. If anyone outside notices anything strange, I’ll skin you alive.” Ye Jiushang knew that Little Lei was very arrogant. If he did not give the orders personally, this guy would not
take anything seriously.
“Extracting such a low-level crystal mine is a small matter to me, hmph.” Even if Little Lei was unwilling, he had to do his work and mine properly. He could not punch like before as it would easily cause a commotion.
Once the mineral vein trembled, it would attract the attention of the people outside. That would be equivalent to him not doing a good job, resulting in his master punishing him.
Xue Fanxin did not know how Little Lei did it. She only saw him transform into a purple light that flew into the depths of the mine. Wherever it went, the crystals on the wall of the mine would fall off one after another. Every one of them was complete.
“Wow… so amazing! Ah Jiu, hurry, help me pick them up. There are too many crystals. I can’t finish the task alone.
“Quickly pick it up, quickly pick it up. After picking it up, Il treat you guys to a big feast.”
When Little Lei heard the word ‘feast,’ he was rendered speechless.
Woman, can you come up with something new?
