Chapter 521 - 521: Escape
At this point, Vanilla kowtowed to the Second Prince.
“Second Prince, you have to avenge our girl! Back then, the man who raped our girl had a big mole on his waist and a hair on it. When that bastard was putting on his clothes, he happened to be standing where I could see him, so I’ve always remembered this!”
As soon as she said this, the second prince’s expression changed.
Because he happened to know someone who had such a mole on his waist.
This person wasn’t Luo Cheng, but his mother’s subordinate.
This time, the second prince’s face turned pale and he could barely stand properly.
“Now, you finally understand who did all this? All these years, you’ve repeatedly sent people to kill me, but you didn’t expect that the person who really killed your cousin and separated you two was right under your nose!”
Luo Cheng said sarcastically, “You idiot, you even want to fight for the throne?
What a joke!”
When the Second Prince heard Luo Cheng’s words, his eyes turned red.
“Luo Cheng, don’t be smug. So what? If you dont hand over the antidote and prescription today, I’ll still take your life!”
At this moment, the Second Prince was furious about the sudden revelation.
His mother wasn’t by his side and only Luo Cheng was there.
Therefore, Luo Cheng became his target for venting.
“Second Brother, I really overestimated you. I didn’t expect you to be so useless. You don’t even have a backbone anymore. How can you still call yourself a man? Now that you’re angry, you’re targeting me. Good job! Speaking of which, all these years, I’ve been slandered by you and your mother. You guys have even tried to assassinate me so many times. It’s time for me to get payback!” Luo Cheng said as his expression changed.
“Kill the second prince today. Leave no one alive. Whoever takes the second prince’s head will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold!” Luo Cheng ordered.
All these years, Luo Cheng’s subordinates had been training hard in martial arts so that one day, they could kill those who had oppressed them and bullied their young master.
Today, they finally didn’t have to suppress their anger anymore and could beat people up directly. The group was naturally excited and motivated.
In just a few exchanges, countless people had died already.
As Luo Cheng stared at the second prince, who wasn’t far away, he sneered.
It was time to let the second prince have a taste of what he had suffered all these years.
“By the way, Second Brother, you have to work hard to survive! Don’t die here today! If you’re really beheaded by my buddies, that’ll be boring! As long as you escape, I guarantee that from today onwards, you and the people you care about will experience several assassination attempts every day. Don’t worry, when you’re not paying attention, I’ll hire assassins to relieve your boredom,” Luo Cheng said.
When the second prince heard Luo Cheng’s words, he panicked and got stabbed.
As blood spurted out, the second prince’s secret guard appeared and ran away with the second prince on his back.
Seeing this, Luo Cheng didn’t send anyone to chase after them. Instead, he asked someone to deal with all the people the Second Prince had brought.
These people had killed countless innocent people, so their deaths were not worth pitying.
Moreover, a lot of his buddies had been sacrificed to protect him all these years.
Killing these people with their own hands could be considered comfort for those buddies in heaven.
After the second prince’s men were dealt with, Luo Cheng thought of something and quickly brought his men up the mountain to look for Li Xiaoran and the others.
Li Xiaoran sensed Luo Cheng’s anxiety in the cave, so she quickly ran out.
When Li Xiaoran walked out of a bush, Luo Cheng finally felt at ease. After Luo Cheng ran over and hugged Li Xiaoran, he took a deep whiff of her scent.
“I’m glad you’re fine!”
“What about you? Are you alright?” Li Xiaoran smelled blood on Luo Cheng, so she asked worriedly.
“Don’t worry! I’m fine. The second prince suffered heavy losses. However, this time, the second prince was lucky enough to escape! But don’t worry, I’ve already arranged everything. If the second prince can find assassins from the martial world to kill me, I can also find assassins from the martial world to kill him. Anyway, I have plenty of money. I don’t lack this bit of money!” Luo Cheng said fearlessly.
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately laughed.
“I’m glad you’re fine!”
With that, Li Xiaoran thought of something and said, “Husband, come. I’ll show you a good place!”
With that, Li Xiaoran brought Luo Cheng to the bushes and stepped on a mechanism.
Soon, the cave entrance was revealed. Luo Cheng called a few people to follow Li Xiaoran to the cave below.
Zi Zheng, Shu Ruyue, and Wu Qinghe were all waiting in the cave. When they saw Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran coming down, their faces lit up.
“Husband, we found this cave by accident. Not only does this place have good scenery, but there’s also a vegetable garden and a small stream. The temperature here is suitable and it’s very hidden. We have to make use of such a good place!” Li Xiaoran said.
Luo Cheng looked around and realized that this place was indeed very good, so he nodded.
“Li Xiaoran is right. This place is really a good place!”
“Sigh, I’m thinking that if I can put a bed and some pots, pans, and ingredients here, I won’t get sick of living here for even a month!” Li Xiaoran felt that living here was like being on vacation.
“You’ll get sick of it after living here for a long time! Come home with me first! I’ll send some guards to clean up this place,” Luo Cheng said.
Li Xiaoran nodded and left the cave with everyone.
On the way back, Li Xiaoran told Luo Cheng what had happened when they went up the mountain.
Luo Cheng didn’t hide anything either and told her about how he had dealt with the second prince.
He also told her about how the second prince’s mother, Consort Shu, had asked someone to pretend to be him and rape the second prince’s cousin.
Li Xiaoran didn’t expect Luo Cheng to be the scapegoat for such a thing.
No wonder the second prince had been targeting her husband.
“Consort Shu is quite scheming! Not only did she get rid of so many thorns, but she also successfully cleared herself of suspicion and made the second prince hate you for so many years! Why is this woman so evil?!” Li Xiaoran said angrily.
Seeing that Li Xiaoran felt sorry for him, Luo Cheng didn’t feel that bitter about it anymore.
“Didn’t you say that one who has never tasted what is bitter does not know what is sweet?! Perhaps because I’ve experienced so many hardships, the heavens rewarded me with a lucky star wife!”
