Help The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama (by Lotus Seeds) novel Chapter 275

Chapter 275: Chapter 267: A Heated Argument

The man’s voice seemed like a demon’s whisper, "Hand over the military power to me, how about this condition?"

Shen Qingli’s face was full of panic, what this guy truly wanted wasn’t military power, he wanted to force her to make a choice, to leave Yun Han in a fate worse than death... Even if she successfully took over the Empire in the future, she would only turn into a puppet in his hands!

She was the dignified Empire Princess; how could she resign to being the puppet of the rebel army?

Zaxxis saw her unwilling expression and his face darkened, his big hand squeezed her chin, forcefully prying it open, and fed her something unknown.

"Cough... Cough! What did you feed me!" Shen Qingli’s face turned pale as paper, she leaned over the bed, clawing at her throat to vomit whatever it was out but couldn’t.

Zaxxis sat cross-legged on the bed, tilting his head, appreciating her miserable frightened appearance, smiling faintly, "It’s a poison that can turn one’s internal organs to water, a month later the poison will activate, and when it does, you will certainly die."

"You— No! No! I don’t believe you would really kill me, you’re lying, aren’t you? Give me the antidote!" Shen Qingli was scared out of her wits, her face streaming with tears as she begged him for the antidote.

Zaxxis looked at her but remained unmoved.

He curved his slender gloomy eyes, his lips crooked wickedly, his smile growing more dangerous, "Qingli, I dislike disobedient people, and I loathe deceitful females. This is your punishment for being so wishy-washy."

A sudden emergency alert rang in her mind, [Host, quickly agree to him! This man’s heart is sinister; he’s capable of being ruthless even to those he loves dearly. Under the influence of the negative Buff from the card, if the host doesn’t satisfy his wishes today, he might indeed resort to deadly measures!]

Shen Qingli was scared out of her wits, unable to think anymore, she hastily agreed, "Alright, I agree to you!"

Zaxxis finally showed satisfaction, he lifted her chin, kissing her gently, "Be good, see you in a month, don’t disappoint me."

Shen Qingli’s face still stained with tears, gritted her teeth, "Then you remember your promise to me!" 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

"I assure you, the next time you see her will be at the funeral scene."

...

The night was deep and shadowed with dark clouds covering the moon, the forest swept by war was terrifyingly quiet, even the chirping of insects and the calls of birds could not be heard, like an uninhabited realm of death.

Yun Han walked disillusionedly on the remote mountain path, his figure hunched and frail, trudging over broken stones and withered branches, making slight rattling sounds, leaving behind trails of bloody footprints; seen from afar he resembled a walking corpse.

His eyes, which were normally proud, were now lifeless like stagnant water impossible to create waves.

Yun Han didn’t know what he was doing.

His mind was a mess, many things he couldn’t understand, he just instinctively wanted to escape, to a place with no people, to calm down properly.

He walked aimlessly forward, his broken body losing support, feeling heavier and weaker, and the vision tinted with red grew blurrier.

Thud!

He accidentally stepped on something, suddenly losing strength, kneeling down heavily on the ground.

The man hung his head low, his disheveled silver hair matted with dirty blood clinging to his forehead, shading the pain in his eyes, bitter within his heart.

Now he feared he couldn’t face going back, perhaps it would be better to die right here.

Rustling footsteps came from the shrubbery behind him, along with an anxious call,
