Xue Fanxin did not flare up. She knew that someone would be even angrier. The outcome of getting on his nerves was very serious. She wondered if this young miss could bear the responsibility. After Hai Lan said the word ‘unclean,’ she regretted it a little, but just a little. She did not think too much into it. Even if she regretted it, she did not take it to heart. She continued, “Ninth Imperial Consort, I wonder what the Ninth Lord will think if you protect another man so much?” “Apart from romantic feelings, men and women can also have a friendship. Miss Hai Lan, you always think in that direction. Is it because you’re too lonely and always fantasize about affairs between men and women? Whenever you see them, you say that they have an ambiguous relationship?” Xue Fanxin retorted. In terms of words, she was superior to Hai Lan. Hai Lan scolded angrily, “Ninth Imperial Consort, don’t talk nonsense and ruin my reputation.” “When you were doing the same just now, why didn’t you think about my feelings? Could it be that Miss Hai Lan thinks that only you can ruin someone’s reputation and others can’t retaliate? Don’t you think such a domineering method is very shameful?” “You…” “Let’s talk about you and Gu Jinyuan. You were the one who broke off the marriage first. He’s done nothing wrong from the beginning, but you wanted to cut off his arm for no reason. You’re really ruthless and vicious.” “Shut up. Do you believe that I’ll tear your mouth apart?” Unable to win against Xue Fanxin in a verbal battle, Hai Lan could not control her emotions anymore and roared. Her face was ferocious, and she looked like she wanted to skin someone alive.
Although Gu Jinyuan was engaged to Hai Lan, the two of them had not interacted much, so he did not know her very well. Now that he had seen her true appearance, he was even happier that he could cancel this engagement. Otherwise, marrying such a woman would be very painful.
Now that Hai Lan had offended Xue Fanxin, this was equivalent to indirectly offending Ye Jiushang. It would result in a terrifying outcome. Everyone around looked at Hai Lan with a sorrowful, sympathetic, and even mocking gaze. But no one said a word, only waiting to watch the drama unfold. No one in Heavenly Saints City dared to provoke Xue Fanxin. Even the people from the four great clans and three great sects did not have the courage. A woman who had appeared out of nowhere was looking for trouble in front of the Ninth Lord’s Estate. The outcome could be imagined. Gu Jinyuan knew what would happen to Hai Lan if she continued on this course. Out of goodwill, he advised, “Miss Hai Lan, if you don’t want things to get worse, leave. Otherwise, I’m afraid you won’t get the chance.” “Gu Jinyuan, you have no right to speak here.” All of Hai Lan’s anger was directed at Xue Fanxin alone. She had no mood to care about Gu Jinyuan. She glared at Xue Fanxin and ordered, “Kill her.” Right at that moment, everyone around her suddenly collapsed. All of them died extremely miserably, scaring her until her face turned pale. What… What was going on?
