Chapter 1721 The Real Cause of Shinra's Death

After putting on the veil, the number of scrutinizing gazes from those around me noticeably decreased.

The clone picked up a delicate pastry placed on the table in front of it and put it in its mouth.

Take a sip.

The crispy pastry melts in your mouth, leaving a lingering fragrance.

"It's done! She ate it!" An excited female voice rang out from an inconspicuous corner on the second floor.

"Hmm, the effects of the drug will probably take a while to take hold. Wait a bit longer, then you can go and take her away." A male voice responded to her.

"That bitch, daring to scheme against us like that, we'll teach her a lesson today!" Senli pinched the flesh of her palm with her fingers. Every time she thought about what was about to happen, she trembled with excitement.

Ahua echoed, "Are those outsiders you found reliable?"

"Of course it's reliable. Although the Elf Realm has been sealed off for over a thousand years, we've never lost touch during that time. We're close friends, so you can rest assured."

As the words fell, Ahua's eyes became even more profound.

It's not a matter of whether I feel at ease or not.

The key point is that he also wants a share of the profits.

Such a beautiful and charming woman, it's better to let him have her first than to let someone else benefit from her.

I need to think of something to stall Senli and those other foreigners, and then take advantage of the situation...

Senli was unaware of Ahua's thoughts; she had already begun to fantasize about her clone being wantonly bullied and ravaged by several outsiders. Just thinking about it was exciting!

After she has suffered all the humiliation, she will jump out and kill her! Torture her to death! To avenge her brother!

"Where are you taking me?" The two were happily daydreaming when they didn't notice that someone had appeared behind them.

That voice... it sounds so familiar! Even if it were reduced to ashes, Senli would still recognize it!

The clone had left its seat at some point and appeared behind them.

He smiled and leaned closer, speaking softly.

Senli and Ahua were startled by the sudden voice of a third person: "A ghost!"

Senli has done many bad things and has a guilty conscience, so naturally she is afraid of ghosts.

She had barely uttered a sound when Ahua covered her mouth: "Don't shout! It would be bad if you attracted someone's attention!"

“It’s you.” Senli calmed down, turned around and looked at the “clone” with feigned composure.

Although I recognized the voice as hers, how could it be her? Wasn't she just down there?

Senli looked at the seats again in disbelief.

At his seat, the clone continued to enjoy the pastries.

Who is this woman in front of them? Senli and Ahua stared wide-eyed, their hearts shrouded in a fog of despair.

Really...was I ghostly?

Senli was so frightened that her eyelids drooped, her body went limp, and she fainted on the spot.

She thought Ahua would catch her before she fainted, but to her surprise, Ahua moved aside as she fell.

Senli was left to fall to the ground, her head hitting the wall hard.

"You...are you a human or a ghost?" Ahua was terrified!

He glanced at the seats again, just as his clone's gaze turned towards him.

"Hi!" The clone waved and greeted him.

Ahua's legs were shaking so badly that he could barely stand by bracing himself against the wall.

Ruan Yu asked with a smile, "Guess if I'm a human or a ghost?"

Ahua swallowed hard, too afraid to answer.

"What were you thinking about just now?" Ruan Yu smiled, her lips curving into a captivating smile that shone brilliantly in the sunlight.

Ahua unconsciously revealed his true feelings: "I'm thinking of you."

"I like you." He didn't know where he got the courage, but he reached out to grab Ruan Yu's hand.

"Senli has joined forces with several outsiders to harm you. How about I take you away?"

Ruan Yu gave him a cold look, and Ahua withdrew his hand.

“I’m telling the truth, Senli is trying to hurt you! I’ll take you away to a place where she can’t find you, and we’ll live a good life together, okay?” At this moment, Ahua truly wanted to spend his life with Ruan Yu.

He could pretend that nothing had happened regarding what his clone had done to him.

Perhaps, this is love.

Ahua was moved to tears.

“Senli hired someone to harm me…” Ruan Yu analyzed.

Ahua nodded, "Yes!"

"So you didn't intend to harm me?" Ruan Yu's tone shifted, and she watched with interest as Ahua's expression gradually turned frightened.

"I...I didn't."

"Weren't you just thinking about how to deal with me?"

"No, let me explain..."

Ruan Yu raised her right index finger and circled it, the Blood-Drinking Blade spinning at her fingertip. Despite the bright sunshine, a chilling glint appeared on the Blood-Drinking Blade.

Ahua's voice suddenly stopped.

"Tell me, what were you thinking just now?"

"..." Ahua pursed his lips tightly, remaining silent. He dared not speak, fearing that if he did, he would lose his life.

"It's okay if you don't say it. You won't have the chance to say it later anyway." Ruan Yu smiled slightly and paused her finger.

The Blood-Drinking Blade was unleashed in an instant!

"Help..." Ahua's plea for help was stuck in his throat. He turned around to run away, but he was too slow and could not keep up with the speed of the Blood-Drinking Blade.

"Pfft!"

The sound of a sharp instrument piercing the skin was clearly audible.

A sharp pain shot through his entire body, and Ahua collapsed to the ground.

His chest cavity had been ripped open, and most of his blood had been drained. At that moment, his eyes were filled with the fear of death.

There was also a desperate desire to survive: "I...I don't want to die...Save me..."

"I promise, I will never... have any improper thoughts about you again..."

Ruan Yu ignored him, grabbed Senli with one hand, and slapped her hard with the other.

Senli was still a little dazed after being woken up. When she caught sight of the half-dead Ahua out of the corner of her eye, she screamed shrilly, "Ahhh...! Ahua!"

"Did you hurt him?" Senli truly lives up to her reputation as someone who's obsessed with love.

Seeing Ahua so badly injured, he even forgot his fear.

He waved his hands, trying to break free of his restraints.

"I'll kill you! I'm going to kill you!" She glared at Ruan Yu with hatred in her eyes.

Where are those foreigners now?

"You know everything?" Senli was taken aback, not expecting Ahua to tell Ruan Yu everything. She paused for a moment, then laughed and said, "I wasn't going to tell you."

“I’ve already made an agreement with them that even if I don’t show up, they will still do that kind of thing to you.”

Senli's eyes held a malicious glint.

"What? You're not angry at all about what I've said? Looks like you're a slut at heart..."

"Snapped!"

Ruan Yu's slap twisted Senli's mouth.

"Go ahead and kill me if you dare! This is the Elf Realm! If you kill me, you won't leave here alive!"

Ruan Yu's words plunged Senli into an unfathomable abyss.

"Have you forgotten how your brother died?"

"What do you mean? Didn't my brother die by suicide? It was you! You killed him?"
