Our Binding Love: My Gentle Tyrant

e above them? Only a few inner force experts died; with this setback you think you are already on This Dowager’s level?”

These blatant words had stolen all the limelight; it was naturally breaking decorum.
Everyone looked in horror towards Mo Linyuan for his expression, only to see him listening very calmly.
His phoenix eyes were half squinted, his exquisite face still carrying a hint of a smile.

“You’re done?” He pursed his lips slightly, looking harmless.
“Drink the medicine after you’ve finished speaking.
Those five hundred people are nothing at all–I have already forgotten about them.”

Nothing at all? Zhao Yunqin’s heart felt even worse! The five hundred people who died were all genuine inner force masters! And deathsworns at that! These assassins had been training for years, and it was a feat to even get ahold of all 500.
Now that everything had been destroyed, Mo Linyuan still treated the matter as something so casual in his eyes?

In the midst of her irate thoughts, she then heard Mo Linyuan continue—apparently, he was still unfinished with his tirade.

“Royal Grandmother has been unconscious for a few days, I’m afraid she is ignorant of the current affairs.” He held the medicine bowl as he slowly spoke, “Although, to my royal grandmother the death of a few inner force masters is a minor deal, on my end, it took a lot of effort to gather more than two hundred inner force masters.
After that…when the three families went to quietly collect their own people’s corpses, I sent people to attack them.
Now, don’t you think there should only be a few survivors, right?

Look at it this way: first, you find them to borrow their soldiers for the purpose of getting rid of me, but then, you betrayed them and slaughtered all of the deathsworn you have ‘borrowed’, greatly weakening their force.
Right now…who knows how much they hate you.”

It took Zhao Yunqin awhile to understand what Mo Linyuan was implying.
He was actually saying that he had found someone to pretend to be her man, and while she was unconscious, had him attack the people of the three great families to create the impression that she had destroyed the bridge after crossing the river*?!
