Chapter Ten of the Romantic Continent: An Unjust Accusation

Ye Tianlong lifted Princess Xiu's round, alluring chin, revealing her exquisite face in full view. He then gently patted her smooth, pink cheek with his other hand, a wicked smile spreading across his face.

"Little woman, you're quite beautiful!"

Smelling the strange, sweet fragrance emanating from Ye Tianlong's breath, Princess Xiu's mind began to wander. Hearing these words amidst her wavering thoughts, her proud princess spirit immediately reacted.

"Insolence!" Princess Xiu forced herself to regain her composure, her almond eyes widening as she spoke forcefully.

"Let me go, or else..."

Ye Tianlong's hand pinched her incredibly alluring cherry lips, silencing her.

"Little woman, don't you know your situation?"

A large, burning hand caressed her high, firm breasts, kneading them wantonly through her clothes.

"Ah!..."

Before Princess Xiu could even cry out, her cherry lips were firmly sealed by the man's lips. Panting heavily through her nose, Princess Xiu struggled fiercely, only to be horrified to discover that the man before her possessed a terrifying strength far beyond her imagination. Her pride in her martial arts seemed utterly childish and ineffective against him.

The hot, sweet scent wafting through her nostrils stirred her senses, yet Ye Tianlong's brutal methods filled her with humiliation and panic. What kind of person was this man? This question arose in Princess Xiu's mind, a strange thought that even she found odd at this moment.

Suddenly, she felt a chill on her chest, and Princess Xiu was horrified to find her beautiful breasts exposed to the air. Her shapely, firm, and glistening breasts trembled slightly before the man, oblivious to her horror, displaying their alluring charm.

Princess Xiu's small fists pounded incessantly on Ye Tianlong's body, but all in vain. The demonized man was completely unfazed by her feeble protests. After teasing her ample breasts, his large hand moved downwards, caressing her soft, smooth waist, finally reaching her smooth, hot, alabaster-like abdomen.

Princess Xiu's delicate body trembled violently, as if she were having a seizure. She already knew what Ye Tianlong wanted to do, but she was powerless to stop this despicable man's next move. What filled her with despair was that Ye Tianlong's passionate kisses were giving her a different kind of sensation. She didn't know when it had started, but that strange, sweet fragrance had taken deep root in her heart, making her feel weak and languid all over, as if ants were crawling on her sensitive areas—a feeling that was both soft and itchy, making it difficult for her to even stand.

Seeing Princess Xiu's body swaying gently, trembling and shaking, her breathing becoming increasingly rapid, her small tongue responding, and her eyes gradually becoming hazy, it was clear that she was aroused.

Ye Tianlong suddenly pulled his mouth away from Princess Xiu's lips, extending a wicked hand to grab her now high and large breasts. He chuckled evilly, "Enjoying yourself, little woman?"

Princess Xiu abruptly snapped out of her daze, her half-open eyes snapping open. With a swift movement, she slapped Ye Tianlong across the face.

"You filthy, despicable, shameless scoundrel!"

A woman's curses seemed to lack variety, and as a noble princess, she rarely had the opportunity to use vicious language. Princess Xiu had run out of words, and could only vent her anger with punches and kicks.

"Well said!"

Ye Tianlong chuckled, tossing Princess Xiu's delicate body onto a wide table. The white jade teapot, exquisite small cups, and the small incense burner with burning incense sticks on the table were all sent flying to the ground, shattering into pieces like beautiful flowers.

"Ouch!" Princess Xiu struggled, unable to get up. She looked truly disheveled, yet incredibly alluring; any man who saw her would be tempted to commit a crime.

Her torn front dress revealed her beautiful breasts, the exposed skin even whiter and more delicate than a piece of white jade. Her round, full breasts exuded endless charm. Below, her loose lower garment revealed two long, straight, snow-white legs, half-bent, half-pressed, arousing a desire to explore them further. Her disheveled black hair from the struggle, coupled with the shy and mournful expression on her face, evoked pity and added to her captivating beauty.

But the man, already in a demonic state, thought nothing of this. Without a shred of pity, he tore off Princess Xiu's clothes, leaving this beautiful woman, clinging to his clutches, weeping and pleading.

With Ye Tianlong's full-force attack, Princess Xiu trembled violently in pain, crying and screaming. But this despicable man ignored her, brutally violating her beautiful body, enjoying the moist, warm sensation. Her untouched flower path was so tight that each thrust brought him immense pleasure, yet left her in a state of agonizing pain and itch.

Eventually, Princess Xiu could no longer distinguish between pain and pleasure, helplessly enduring the man's burning lust.

Humiliation, anger, and pain mingled with strange sensations. Suddenly, she felt an indescribable surge deep within her body, making her feel utterly terrified. With a scream, her limbs flailing wildly until they gradually went limp, and she fell into a daze, losing consciousness. She

didn't know how much time had passed when Princess Xiu slowly awoke, groaning as she tried to sit up. She barely managed to lift her upper body before her brows furrowed, and she collapsed back down. Her body ached terribly, and she lacked even the strength to move a finger.

She tried to recall, and amidst the aching flesh, she looked down to find her once smooth, jade-like breasts bruised and red, her fair and tender skin bearing the marks of a storm. She was fully awake; the scene from before flashed rapidly through her mind.

Two tears rolled down her cheeks. Princess Xiu gritted her teeth and struggled to sit up, seeing that despicable man lying naked on the ground, fast asleep, seemingly carefree.

Princess Xiu gritted her teeth and lifted her leg from the table. This slight movement caused a burning pain in her groin, making her groan. Her once beautiful garden, ravaged by the storm, was now a gruesome sight, the stains and specks of crimson blood among the filth particularly shocking. She

walked slowly to Ye Tianlong's side and kicked him hard. The unconscious man remained unresponsive, but this simple action sent a cold sweat down her forehead.

Strong-willed as she was, she knew the situation was irreversible. Sighing, she slowly walked to the dressing table. Looking in the mirror, she saw a pale-faced, purple-lipped, pitiful woman, a picture of utter devastation. Her hatred for Ye Tianlong intensified. She

stood frozen in front of the mirror for a long time, her mind racing with thoughts of how to deal with Ye Tianlong. But this was merely an unexpected event in the planned scheme, an event that should never have happened. How could she let this ruin her carefully crafted plan? And strangely, after this inexplicable change, the man seemed to have returned to normal. If it weren't for the bruises and welts on his body, and the indescribable tingling and burning pain in her lower body, she would have truly believed it was just a daydream. Perhaps when she opened her eyes, the nightmare would simply disappear.

Princess Xiu was heartbroken. After pondering for a long time, she turned to look at Ye Tianlong, who was still unconscious. Although she had made up her mind, seeing this man lying naked before her, a chilling murderous intent flashed in her almond-shaped eyes. She truly wished she could chop him in two. No! How could a single cut quell the hatred in her heart? It should be a thousand cuts!

After hesitating for a long time, Princess Xiu reluctantly walked over, picked up the scraps of cloth from the ground, and gently wiped the stains on her delicate body. Seeing the painful marks, she couldn't help but kick Ye Tianlong twice. However, this action not only didn't harm him, but she herself almost lost her balance.

Ye Tianlong was lucky; he had just narrowly escaped death several times. If Princess Xiu hadn't been so calm, shrewd, and always focused on achieving her goals, he would have already become a victim of her blade.

Thinking about it, it makes sense; any other woman might have rushed at him and torn him to pieces. Such rape and abuse is unacceptable to any woman, let alone a noble princess.

Ye Tianlong groaned as he woke up, finding his head throbbing. Holding his heavy head, he slowly sat up, only to find himself lying in the grass by the lake, with the high walls and wide moat of Esnia not far away.

"What on earth happened?"

Completely bewildered, the man sat blankly on the ground, desperately trying to recall why he was in this place. Was this a dream or reality?

Gradually regaining some strength, Ye Tianlong stood up, looking down at his filthy clothes with a bitter smile. He clearly remembered being lured to "Bixin Pavilion" by Princess Xiu of Wu'an, having a conversation, and then being drugged and rendered unconscious. After that, he remembered nothing.

But how did he end up like this? His whole body felt like it had been brutally beaten, aching terribly everywhere. His reflection in the water showed bruises on his face, and his large bruises under his eyes made him look like a panda from the mysterious Eastern country of Ludian.

Ye Tianlong scratched his head for a long time, unable to recall what had happened. Looking up at the sky, he realized it was almost sunset. He decided to go home first.

Returning in such a state would undoubtedly cause a stir, so Ye Tianlong secretly slipped into the city and found a regular healer, Luo Yu, to give him a quick fix so he could present a normal appearance. Afterward, he went to a tailor shop, quickly washed and changed into clean clothes before heading home.

During this time, Ye Tianlong considered many possibilities: how did he end up like this? He still couldn't recall the missing part of his memory, so he couldn't piece together the whole story. If he went back to that despicable princess now, he would definitely be kicked out. They might even laugh at him for being out of his mind, thinking that the dignified Princess Wu'anxiu would secretly meet with a man she barely knew, especially at such an important time as her impending marriage to the second prince of the Fast Empire. And if she claimed she drugged him, no one would believe it, because Luo Yu and Yin were after his own agenda. Since he hadn't suffered any serious harm or loss, the story was even less convincing.

Therefore, Ye Tianlong's final conclusion was: keep quiet and make a fortune; he'd just have to swallow this bitter pill and pretend it never happened.

Back at Feifeng Mansion, Yuzhu and Xinxiya were about to lead their men out when they saw Ye Tianlong. Overjoyed, they rushed forward to surround him, demanding to know where he'd been and why he'd been gone so long. It turned out that for a while, Yu Fengwu and Yuzhu had felt uneasy. Seeing that Ye Tianlong hadn't returned for so long, they feared something had happened to him and were about to send Yuzhu and Xinxiya out to look for him.

Ye Tianlong was both ashamed and embarrassed; he couldn't reveal what had happened in front of everyone, so he could only stammer and try to cover it up. Yuzhu and Xinxiya were also very happy to see Ye Tianlong return safely, though they still had some questions, they kept them to themselves, and led him inside.

Ye Tianlong noticed that Yu Zhu, who was beside him, seemed hesitant to speak, her expression strange. Feeling guilty, he couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? It seems you have something to say to me?"

"Young Master… I…" Yu Zhu opened her mouth, but didn't say anything, only smiling at him. This smile made the already uneasy man even more suspicious; what had this beautiful young woman seen through him?

They entered the inner hall, their favorite place where they often sat and chatted. Yu Fengwu, Liu Qin'er, and even Long Ling'er and Zuo Lanxin were there. Ye Tianlong hesitated for a moment before entering.

Seeing Yu Fengwu's beautiful eyebrows furrow slightly, Ye Tianlong quickly said, "I'm sorry! I didn't mean to!"

Yu Fengwu stood up and walked towards Ye Tianlong, saying softly, "Silly boy, I was just worried about you being injured!"

Ye Tianlong looked at Yu Fengwu gratefully, forcing a smile, "Fengwu, how did you know?" Before he finished speaking, Yu Fengwu had already flashed to his side, grabbing his arm and saying urgently, "Sit down first, let me examine you properly."

"What? Where are you injured?" Liu Qin'er and Tian Tian, who were standing nearby, rushed over. Seeing Liu Qin'er anxiously holding Ye Tianlong, Tian Tian stood silently to the side, looking at Ye Tianlong with very concerned eyes.

Ye Tianlong was deeply moved by the care and love of his loved ones. He lowered his head like a child who had done something wrong and began to apologize.

"Don't do it again!" Yu Fengwu interrupted him with a smile, her pretty face displaying a half-smile. "You're not seriously injured, just a minor cut. And you seem to have already received some treatment. Now let Lanxin give it a thorough check, and you'll be perfectly fine tomorrow."

Ye Tianlong smiled apologetically at Zuo Lanxin. "I'm sorry, I've really troubled you!"

"Brother Ye, you seem to be apologizing to the wrong person." Long Ling'er wrinkled her pretty nose. Since being appointed commander of the light infantry regiment by Ye Tianlong, perhaps due to Yu Fengwu's mediation, her relationship with Ye Tianlong had become more normal, and she even called him Brother Ye. However, the person in question still didn't quite understand why this beautiful dragon girl had been so hostile towards him at first, causing him so much suffering. Now, hearing her call him so intimately, he was flattered and somewhat relieved. But deep down, he still considered this beautiful dragon girl one of the people he least wanted to offend.

Hearing such teasing, the relatively thick-skinned man didn't seem to mind, just chuckled and apologized to Long Ling'er, leaving her speechless.

The thin-skinned woman, however, blushed slightly. Zuo Lanxin glanced at Long Ling'er, her face slightly flushed, and said softly, "Little Long, you're being unreasonable! Sister Zuo hasn't done anything to you, so why are you making fun of her?" Long Ling'er looked at

Yu Fengwu, who was smiling silently, and stuck out her tongue, looking both adorable and charming, making it impossible to stay angry. "I'm sorry, Sister Zuo!"

Liu Qin'er patted Long Ling'er's shoulder. "Ha, Little Long, you apologized too!"

Ye Tianlong closed his eyes, feeling the warm and comfortable sensation of the "Holy Light" emanating from Zuo Lanxin's hands, like a mother's touch, dispelling all his pain and fatigue. He could hear the laughter of the women around him, and that warm feeling seeped deep into his heart, lingering for a long time.

After fully recovering, Ye Tianlong was sent off to take a bath by Yu Fengwu. As he was leaving, Ye Tianlong suddenly asked with a grin, "Who wants to come with me?"

This remark elicited a chorus of playful reproaches. Yu Fengwu chuckled, "You're so beautiful, even taking a bath with someone else!"

Liu Qin'er playfully punched Ye Tianlong on the shoulder, scolding, "Go on, stop talking nonsense."

"Still lustful! You've only just recovered your strength and you're already thinking of wicked things!"

Amidst the commotion, Long Ling'er's voice clearly reached Ye Tianlong's ears, causing his heart to race. He quickly pulled Tian Tian, who was standing to the side, towards the back, completely ignoring the poor Tian Tian's flushed face and overwhelming embarrassment.

Just as they passed through a door, Yu Zhu suddenly caught up from behind, her pretty face blushing and looking quite adorable.

"Young Master, let me keep you company!"

Ye Tianlong was looking at Yu Zhu strangely when he suddenly heard her words and was taken aback. Why did this beautiful and reliable little woman seem like a different person today? She was actually so proactive and seemed quite aroused

. No wonder she had been acting so strangely earlier. Thinking about it, he couldn't refuse such a good thing that had come to him. He reached out and pulled the shy Yu Zhu into his arms, gently breathed into her ear, and then whispered, "You really want to..." The last syllable was drawn out, carrying a special flavor.

Yu Zhu's pretty face flushed crimson, her eyes brimming with tears. Her shy yet alluring expression stirred even Tian Tian, a woman herself, and it was no surprise that the man, who considered himself a connoisseur of beauty, was captivated.

As she leaned into Ye Tianlong's arms, Yu Zhu whispered, "Young Master, it's really strange. Today, whenever I'm near you, a strong urge to make you love me rises within me. My body heats up involuntarily, and I really want you to..."

"Huh? When did I become so charming?" Ye Tianlong couldn't help but feel smug after hearing Yu Zhu's confession. He held the almost unsteady Yu Zhu in one arm and pulled the blushing Tian Tian with the other, quickly leading her to the back.

When they emerged from the bathroom, the languid Yu Zhu and Tian Tian appeared before everyone, half-supported, half-carried by the energetic man.

Liu Qin'er, who had been itching for a fight, didn't bother to tease the two shy yet satisfied women. She grabbed Ye Tianlong's shoulder and pushed him forward without saying a word. "Now it's our turn, sisters! Hurry up and go into the room. Sister Feng and I want to thoroughly examine you!"

"Good! Very bold!" Ye Tianlong, already aroused, was delighted to hear this. He didn't understand why, after what he had done to Yu Zhu and Tian Tian, his passion hadn't lessened at all; instead, it had become even more unstoppable. He couldn't wait to pick up Liu Qin'er and head towards Yu Fengwu's bedroom.

In the inner courtyard of Feifeng Mansion, there was a two-story, exquisitely decorated pavilion. It had originally been Yu Fengwu's boudoir, but now it had a different owner. After Ye Tianlong moved in, he combined the two rooms on the second floor into a large, elegant, and tranquil room. There wasn't a single table or chair inside; only a low table, blankets, cushions, and bedding made up the open space.

The moon climbed to the horizon, casting its gentle silver light across the earth. The night breeze softly swayed the flowers, trees, and shrubs in the inner courtyard, producing a sound almost celestial. The garden's design was truly meticulous, giving one a blissful feeling of completely forgetting the mundane world.

But at this moment, the most wonderful thing was not this exquisitely crafted scenery, but rather the faint, almost imperceptible moans and whispers emanating from the half-open window on the second floor. Interspersed among these were shy giggles and playful, teasing sounds, weaving together a beautiful symphony of boundless spring.

As Ye Tianlong's muscular body descended from Liu Qin'er's delicate form, Liu Qin'er, having been brought to the blissful state for the fourth time, was completely disoriented. Her bright eyes were glazed over, and she was still passionately murmuring, "You... if you... are... naughty... you... I'll... bite you... kiss me..."

Ye Tianlong inspected his work. Although Liu Qin'er had brought the recovered Yu Zhu and Tian Tian to help, how could four people be a match for the enthusiastic Ye Tianlong? He very satisfiedly gave Liu Qin'er's breasts a squeeze and said with a grin, "Let's see if you're still so stubborn!"

Still lost in the extreme pleasure, Liu Qin'er's body only twisted spontaneously, and she murmured, "I can't... take it anymore... I..."

The smug Ye Tianlong turned his head and immediately saw Yu Fengwu lying to the side. Completely naked, she lay half-reclined on the cushions, gazing at Ye Tianlong. A satisfied glow shone on her delicate face, and her diamond-like phoenix eyes shone with a deep, captivating light that stirred the heart. Her cherry-red lips curled into a seductive smile, making her truly alluring.

Ye Tianlong stared, his eyes wide with disbelief. He secretly admired Feng Wu's profound skill and rapid progress; in bed, she was already perfectly in sync with him. He couldn't help but imagine the unparalleled pleasure if she and Chen Yue were together.

In this situation, if anyone could maintain their composure, they would definitely not be a man. Ye Tianlong couldn't help but swallow hard. Before he could make a move, Yu Fengwu let out an alluring laugh, her breath sweet as orchids, and said, "Silly boy, what are you looking at?"

As she spoke, Yu Fengwu moved her delicate body, letting her pair of pink arms, as slender as lotus roots, wrap around Ye Tianlong's shoulders, neck, and back. She straightened up, her black hair cascading down, revealing a pair of fair and full breasts that pressed against his chest, and her fragrant breath brushed against his cheek.

A delicate, fragrant mouth whispered in Ye Tianlong's ear, "Tell me the truth now, who did you see this afternoon that made you end up like that?"

Ye Tianlong chuckled inwardly. So, after all this talk, Yu Fengwu was still jealous. He pressed his lips to her ear and said with a wry smile, "If investigating cases were always this erotic, I don't think any case would be unsolvable!"

Yu Fengwu squeezed her legs together tightly and giggled, "You rascal, just tell me the truth! There were so many people around earlier, I was too embarrassed to ask too many questions, but now, tell me everything."

Ye Tianlong slowly began to move, whispering his thoughts into Yu Fengwu's ear, pouring out all his doubts to this exceptionally intelligent and beautiful woman.

Amidst soft moans and gasps, Yu Fengwu enjoyed her lover's tender caresses while mentally processing the information Ye Tianlong had provided. Even with Yu Fengwu's intelligence, she couldn't fathom what had transpired. All she was certain of was that Princess Xiu of Wu'an harbored ill intentions; she must have taken advantage of Ye Tianlong's unconsciousness to tamper with things. But why was Ye Tianlong ultimately thrown to the lake? It seemed she merely wanted to punish him.

Yu Fengwu couldn't possibly imagine that Ye Tianlong was thrown to the lake because he had raped Princess Xiu, the mastermind behind the plan, while he was unconscious, thus introducing a twist to the scheme. Yu Zhu knew something about Ye Tianlong's transformation. When Luo UB bathed Ye Tianlong, she noticed something unusual on his body—certain marks—but by then, she was already consumed by lust and simply ignored it.

The real reason for this unexpected turn of events was Ye Tianlong's special talent. His union with Chenyue hadn't completely eliminated the abnormality within him; it had only brought it to dormancy. Furthermore, he had previously been subjected to the "Heavenly Demon's Desire" spell by Princess Qian. This nearly lost art left its aftereffects on Ye Tianlong, which wouldn't normally manifest. However, after Princess Xiu's special bewitching tea, the dark demon god hidden within him became active again. Now united with the "Heavenly Demon's Desire," the demon god naturally saw the beautiful princess before him as its best prey. After its release

, although the dark demon god went dormant again, its residual aura still exerted a strong attraction on the members of the dark race, hence Yu Zhu's sudden, fiery passion. None of the parties involved knew these events, and Yu Fengwu, as an outsider, was even less aware of them.

As the two were enjoying themselves immensely, Yu Fengwu felt a vague unease. She knew she would soon learn the consequences of Ye Tianlong's actions that afternoon, and she believed the difficulties would be enormous. The people of Wu'an had gone to such great lengths to orchestrate that scheme; it must be a grand conspiracy. Unfortunately, she couldn't learn more about the conspiracy before it surfaced, thus preventing her from preparing countermeasures.

Yu Fengwu's premonition was entirely correct; the consequences unfolded swiftly and were devastating.

The very next morning, a spirited Ye Tianlong stepped into the gates of the Eastern Governor's Mansion. He was about to greet Shi Yixin, who was coming out to greet him, when he saw that the military advisor of the Eastern Governor's Mansion was covered in dust, his eyes filled with anxiety.

"What's wrong? My lord, did Madam find out about your visit to Anxiang Pavilion last night?"

Ye Tianlong chuckled, making a self-deprecating joke, but no one responded. Just as he was wondering what was going on, a large number of palace guards surged out from both sides, surrounding Ye Tianlong. Each of them was on high alert, swords and spears in hand.

Yu Zhu, Cynthia, and the female guards also drew their weapons and stood guard around Ye Tianlong.

"What's going on?" Ye Tianlong looked at Shi Yixin, puzzled. Shi Yixin smiled bitterly and said, "My lord, now you understand, right? Why do we all look like that?"

Ye Tianlong looked at Qing Ji, Zuo Daojin, Suo Chong, and other generals of the Eastern Governor's Office. They all looked worried. He couldn't help but shout, "What exactly happened?"

"Ye Tianlong, you've committed a crime!" A cold voice rang out from behind. When Ye Tianlong turned around, he saw a man with a long face walking towards him. He recognized this guy; it was the head of the palace guards, Gu De.

"What exactly did I do wrong?" Ye Tianlong stared intently at Goode, asking angrily.

"Yesterday afternoon, you led men to murder the General's Secretary Trini and the Chief of Ceremonies of the Central Secretariat, Pull. Do you still dare to say nothing happened?"

Goode's words left Ye Tianlong bewildered. He glanced at Shi Yixin and the others, seeing them nod at him, knowing these things were indeed true. But why was Goode so certain it was him?

"If you want to explain, go before His Majesty!" Goode waved his hand, ordering, "Take him away!"

Yu Zhu and Cynthia looked at Ye Tianlong questioningly, waiting for his command so they could cover his escape from the encirclement. Ye Tianlong knew their thoughts, but he was unwilling to bear such a fabricated charge. He would try if given the chance.

However, once brought before Andrei III, Ye Tianlong realized how unfavorable the situation was. Almost every moment of his actions had been witnessed, his route meticulously documented.

Every witness swore they saw Ye Tianlong with several people and the two victims. They were certain of his build and clothing.

Ye Tianlong realized the extent of his predicament; Princess Xiu of Wu'an must have sent someone to impersonate him and commit these acts. But if he claimed to have been with Princess Xiu at the time, no one would believe him. His

only option was to deny it entirely. They could only testify that someone resembling him had been near the victims, lacking concrete evidence and witnesses.

However, Ye Tianlong underestimated his enemy's strength. With Andre III's consent, Yuna brought a powerful witness to the council chamber.

"Triny was killed right after our affair; she is arguably the only eyewitness to the murder!"

Yuna's words echoed in the hall, her confident and forceful tone resonating with everyone present.

Ye Tianlong was overjoyed. He thought that if this woman had seen the murderer's face, she would naturally recognize that he wasn't the one who killed Trini. However, when he approached the woman, she immediately pointed at him and exclaimed, "It's him! It's him!"

"I've never seen you before, why are you so sure it's me, young lady?"

Ye Tianlong tried to persuade the somewhat nervous woman, but after looking at him for a long time, she still said with absolute certainty, "It's him, I will never forget him!"

"But if it was me, why didn't you kill her too?"

Seeing that it was impossible to get the woman to change her story, Ye Tianlong changed his approach, hoping to overturn her testimony.

"Because you met me before you went out with Lord Trini!" The woman's words shattered Ye Tianlong's last hope. Now he was truly speechless. The entire plan was so meticulous that he had no chance to turn the tables.

"Ye Tianlong, do you have anything else to say?" Andrei III looked at Ye Tianlong expressionlessly, as if he was about to deliver a verdict.

"Motive? Why would I kill them? That needs a reason!" Ye Tianlong cried out, grasping at the last glimmer of hope.

Yuna sneered, "That's for you to ask. Maybe it's because of a woman, maybe it's because they both looked down on you. Anyway, the evidence is overwhelming; you can't escape!"

With no other options, Ye Tianlong gritted his teeth and looked at Andre III, saying, "Your Majesty, since that's the case, I have to be honest. At the time, I was with Princess Xiu of Wu'an..."

"What a joke! How could you come up with such an excuse!" The Second Prince, who was listening in, interrupted Ye Tianlong. "Because at that time, I happened to be enjoying a song and dance with Princess Xiu!"

Ye Tianlong's heart sank to the bottom. He was now utterly unable to defend himself; all the evidence was against him. The two dead were both very influential officials: Trini was a trusted advisor to the Third Prince Yuna, and Pull was the most talented foreign minister under Left Chancellor Gilemans. In court, both men enjoyed Andre III's deep trust.

Why did Princess Xiu use his identity to kill Trini and Poole? Ye Tianlong truly didn't understand that woman's thinking, but one thing was undeniable: she had done a brilliant job; the noose around his neck had tightened.

The air in the council hall grew heavy. Everyone's eyes were fixed on Emperor Andre III, who sat on the throne, waiting to see what sentence he would give to this man who had inexplicably gained his favor. Under such charges, even if Andre III wanted to exonerate Ye Tianlong, it would be extremely difficult. Yunaia and Gilemans would absolutely not tolerate this.

Ye Tianlong lowered his head silently, a sudden feeling of absurdity rising within him. He, a mere centurion from a local area, had risen several ranks in such a short time to reach the most powerful center of the Fast Empire. A moment of impulsiveness and carelessness had made him an inexplicable murderer, and the result was not only being reduced to his original status, but possibly even losing his life.

Reflecting on all of this, it felt like a dream, and now it was time to wake up.
