2555 Even the Noble Empress Was Forced to Lower Her Head

Ye Wangchuan walked to the window and looked at the car. He knocked on the window and gentlemanly asked, "M?"

Qiao Nian had once received an anonymous express delivery. There was a finger inside, and the sender was "M".

Qiao Nian did not take it to heart.

However, Ye Wangchuan investigated and found out that the sender was from Country M, and the finger's owner was the blondie from the K Organization.

Country M had always been the territory of the reclusive families.

The Yu family and the royal family wouldn't give Qiao Nian such a 'gift'.

He had always wondered who would send it to Qiao Nian. Now that he thought about it, the answer was actually right in front of him.

"You're the mysterious person who sent her a finger, right?"

There was still no movement inside the black Lincoln. It was silent as if the people inside did not hear him.

Ye Wangchuan straightened his back and stuffed his hands into his pockets. He was noble and carefree, and his aura was not ordinary. "You wouldn't give something to my girlfriend for no reason, so I thought you were an acquaintance. Or maybe someone blood-related?"

Who would have thought that the empress of the hidden families might be inextricably linked to the Ji family? If this news were to spread, most people's jaws would probably drop.

Ye Wangchuan was still smiling, but the smile did not reach his eyes. His aura was strong. "I don't care about your relationship with her. You only have one choice now—let her go. Otherwise, there's a high chance that you won't be able to leave alive today.

"I'll give you ten seconds to think about it."

…

In the car.

Everyone kept their heads down and stared at their toes. No one dared to look at the expression of the person in the backseat.

They all heard Ye Wangchuan's threat. Their hearts pounded.

What mysterious M?

What blood relations or acquaintances?

They were confused and did not know what the person outside was talking about, but they acutely felt that the air in the car was about to freeze them.

The assistant who communicated with Yu Qingliu carefully bent down and knelt before whispering, "Ancestor, what should we do now?"

The car was silent for six to seven seconds.

Every second was so long. The tense atmosphere caused everyone's hearts to beat faster, and their minds went blank from lack of oxygen.

Finally.

An old and gloomy female voice sounded. "Tell Shadow to let her go."

"Yes." The assistant got out of the car and communicated with Ji Lin and the rest.

There was dead silence in the car again. Everyone kept their heads lowered.

Not only were their hearts racing, but they were also extremely shocked.

The empress was forced to lower her head this time!

This was definitely an unprecedented humiliation and slap in the face for the reclusive families!

However, they did not dare to raise a different opinion. After all, their lives were still in the hands of outsiders.

In Freedom Square.

The two sides were in a stalemate.

Someone from the reclusive families could not take it anymore and prepared to attack. "If we don't keep her here today, the reclusive families won't be able to survive outside! Don't talk to her. Just attack. I don't believe that a little girl can soar to the sky!"

Shadow's left shoulder bullet wound was incomparably painful. A thin layer of sweat marked his forehead. After he stabilized himself and pursed his lips, a trace of killing intent flashed in his eyes.
