Chapter 269 Baili Wuchen’s Defection

“Stop!”

A female voice stopped everyone.

Lin Mengya was standing between the two parties, and was staring fearlessly at Baili Wuchen.

“Your Highness, move back. No matter what it takes, I will never let them go. Don’t you worry about that. I promise I’ll keep you safe!”

They were men and obviously to them, loyalty was the priority. Therefore, the defection of Baili Wuchen, Zhang Liang and the others, was totally unacceptable to Lin Kui!

“No! Lin Kui, let him go. Baili Wuchen, I am letting you go, not because I’m scared of you, but because I hate to see the tragedy of brothers fighting against each other. From now on, all of you, will never be part of Prince Yu’s family. And don’t turn your back on your former boss and help his enemy to set a trap for him, if you’re still kind enough. His faith in you guys, I know, is holding you here. But if any one of you gives him away a little, I swear to God that I would chase after you guys until you die. Lin Kui, step back and let them go!”

After she uttered the last word, everyone fell silent.

The strained atmosphere suddenly quieted down. Zhang Liang lowered his head. They still could not betray Long TianhaoLong Tianyu.

Then, he gave Lin Mengya a determined look, as if he had already made up his mind, and said.

“You’re right, Your Highness. Today, we just wanted to help Mr. Baili out. If he is able to leave, we will not, and would not like to fight against our brothers, ever”

Lin Kui glared at Zhang Liang furiously. They had gone through a lot with him and unexpectedly, they were against Long TianhaoLong Tianyu. It was unforgivable to him!

“Don’t even dare think of that! None of them will be allowed to leave alive today, Your Highness! They can’t leave!”

Lin Mengya shook her head, and did not change her mind.

“Let them go. I’ll bear the consequence and explain to His Highness. Make way and let him go!”

Lin Mengya’s order stopped Lin Kui from carrying out his next action.

They hated to see brothers killing each other as well. So Lin Kui took the lead in stepping aside, even though he resented them very much.

Everyone behind Lin Kui had pained looks, and still forced themselves to make way.

Zhang Liang and his people kept their heads lowered. When they walked away from this place, they would not be brothers anymore, but sworn enemies.

Lin Mengya walked to the forefront and held her head high. She wanted to tell Baili Wuchen that she was letting him go, but not for her sake.

They were on the verge of breaking out in a fight, until they got outside. It was a little dark and the light of the torches at the exit of the artificial hill, made it look bright.

Long TianhaoLong Tianyu was standing at the gate of the dungeon, and his tall, slim figure surprised everyone, and they stopped in their tracks.

“Your Highness, I—”

Lin Mengya was about to give him an explanation, when he lifted his hand and waved to his people.

Guards who were surrounding him closely, automatically made way. Apparently, Baili Wuchen and Zhang Liang had never imagined that Long TianhaoLong Tianyu would let them go.

“Go and never come back.”

His deep voice sounded cold, but actually, it was filled with heavy heartache.

It would be impossible for him not to feel the pain when those brothers, who had experienced lots of fights with him, became his enemies, at this moment.

But, he was used to hiding his feelings, and he would not tell anyone that he felt so much pain.

“Your Highness, we thank you for your appreciation of us. We had to save Mr. Baili. There’s no other way for us. But we will never betray you.”

When he finished speaking, Zhang Liang surprisingly, committed suicide, using his sword, before anyone else noticed.

The guards around him, did the same, and killed themselves one by one, as if they had already planned it.

Lin Mengya was too astonished to close her eyes. When she tried to stop them, a pair of big hands turned her around.

“Stop watching.”

Long TianhaoLong Tianyu sounded calm, but actually, there was suppressed pain in his voice. The sounds of blood spurting forth, and bodies falling, filled Lin Mengya with deep sorrow.

This was not what she wanted.

“Your Highness, Housan and I will stay alive to keep Mr. Baili safe. We are still new here and know little about the secrets here, so even if we’re caught, we can’t give you away. But we’ll die as well once Mr. Baili gets to somewhere safe. Don’t you worry about that.”

A young voice came from behind. Lin Mengya clung to Long TianhaoLong Tianyu’s clothes. “Who could it be, talking like this?”

She did not want them to kill themselves. She let them go because she did not want any more trouble. But why this consequence?

Long TianhaoLong Tianyu nodded. The pain of their deaths were reflected in his eyes.

Many corpses were lying on the ground. They all went through fire and water together with him. But the result was clear. Even though he were to kill them, they would live with remorse forever.

And, Baili Wuchen was the cause.

“Well, Your Highness, You’ve seen it? All of them should have been killed by their brothers, but it is a pity that they died in such an insulting manner. It’s your wife’s fault. She should not have made that decision by herself. She made them feel embarrassed.”

Lin Mengya was irritated. The so-called chief culprit was supposed to be Baili Wuchen. If not for him, they would not have died.

She turned back, only to see the corpses on the ground.

Dozens of guards were lying down at the foot of Baili Wuchen. The grassland was stained with their blood.

“Baili Wuchen! They died because of you! Don’t you feel sorry for them? They would not have died if they had not come to your rescue! You let them betray His Highness. You made them feel guilty!”

Although she thought of herself to be a killer, Lin Mengya did not kill or cause anyone she cared about, to die for her.

But Baili Wuchen had made use of their brotherhood and led them to the abyss, to become defectors.

“Doesn’t he know how to be a human!”

It was now dusk. By the light of the torches, one could see the brutal gleam in Baili Wuchen’s eyes. He looked like a mad man.

Lin Mengya was desperate to kill him, at the moment. But she could not because those people sacrificed themselves for Baili Wuchen’s safety.

“Get lost!”

Long TianhaoLong Tianyu yelled in a deep voice, full of killing intent.

He must have been feeling sad about what happened today. Baili Wuchen gave him a sneaky smile, and with the two guards, walked straight in front of Long TianhaoLong Tianyu.

To everyone’s surprise, he knelt down and kowtowed violently.

Long TianhaoLong Tianyu turned around and refused to see his face. But at that moment, Baili Wuchen rose and grabbed Lin Mengya, before anyone could react.

“Baili Wuchen, you’re ruining yourself!”

Lin Kui, who was behind Lin Mengya, glared at him, his eyes brimming with killing intent. Everyone pointed their weapons, which had been put away earlier, at Baili Wuchen again.

“What are you doing?”

Baili Wuchen gripped Lin Mengya’s neck tightly, and took out a knife from his sleeves, for no reason. He placed the knife onto her slender neck, as if there would be blood from his touch.

“Your Highness, everything happened because of her! Before I leave, I will definitely kill her. You’ll be totally ruined sooner or later, as long as she is alive!”

Baili Wuchen’s voice contained some insane coldness. Lin Mengya was stunned. It seemed that Baili Wuchen would surely have her killed today.

His cold knife was on her neck. Her slight struggle instantly made her neck ache.

She could feel how sharp the knife was.

“Let her go, Baili Wuchen, otherwise, I will tear you to pieces.”

A few minutes ago, Long TianhaoLong Tianyu felt only sorrow, but at this moment, he was really furious.

Baili Wuchen had been grounded, because his plan to kill Lin Mengya was discovered by Long TianhaoLong Tianyu, and also, he hurt Night, who had put up a violent fight, as he tried to stop him.

If Qinghu, Lin Zhongyu and the guards that Long TianhaoLong Tianyu sent, had not protected Liuxin Courtyard like a steel fortress, Baili Wuchen might have already killed Lin Mengya.

“Your Highness, wake up! You’re an ambitious man. Look at you, how soft you are now! An ambitious man should be heartless. You will be pulled down into an abyss by this woman. I won’t let it happen! I won’t allow it!”

It was only now that Lin Mengya knew why Baili Wuchen hated her so much. Indeed, before she became Princess Yu, Long TianhaoLong Tianyu was really a heartless man.

He always showed a somber face at his enemies, as well as his people.

But he was gradually influenced by Lin Mengya, and started to smile, and more importantly, he became more like a real human, as Lin Kui and Steward Deng told her.

He did not soften. He was more like a human, and showed understanding and sympathy for his people. If Baili Wuchen betrayed him before that, he would have been killed many times.

But this time, Long TianhaoLong Tianyu just had him grounded, and did not kill him.

“You’re wrong, Baili Wuchen. Long TianhaoLong Tianyu is no longer cruel and brutal. He’s a real leader now. Look, look at your brothers, they are not afraid of Long TianhaoLong Tianyu. They respect him from the bottom of their hearts. That’s what Long TianhaoLong Tianyu wants. For you, you just want him to be a cold killing machine!”

Lin Mengya suddenly got an idea, and she shouted loudly in disdain.
