The Unknown Beauty - Chapter 191 Sibling Fight 9
Quan
Quan Su Wen jumped on a building, reading the situation. ‘It seems like the sea kings are not moving anymore. But I don’t want to risk that. Sheng said he was going to take care of them so we should be fine. My members are taking care of the citizens but they are not strong enough to take down even one sea king… Not even Tang Hongwu and Soo Tien-Kai was able to damage the Sea King when we encountered one in the forest…
Wait…! The sleeping gas! Lin Yu Yan is probably over at the front! That means I might be able to save my brothers! Yi Ying is also safe in her hands!’
She sighs in realization, ‘I see… this was also part of your plan too, right, Yu Yan? You want me to avenge my mother and created this chaotic scene… I see… Thanks.’
Quan Su wen then looked down to double check the situation is under control and then quickly moved to the Chu Palace, where she can save her older brothers and possibly save herself from this hellish fate.
Quan Su Wen reaches the Chu Palace just to witness a horrible scene. She looks around the palace. So many injured soldiers are on the ground and her three older brothers were breathing heavily and covered in blood and wounds as soldiers come left to right, trying to capture them.
“Brothers!” yelled Quan Su Wen.
“Su Wen! Stay away!” said Quan Xue.
“We got this!” said Quan Wei-Kang
“Su Wen?” It was Quan Jian Min. He came a few moments before Quan Su Wen and witness his two older brother fighting for their lives and fought with them despite knowing what was going on.
“Why are you here!?” said Quan Jian Min. He faces her with no hesitation. The guard took is as an opportunity and he shoot an arrow at Quan Jian Min.
Quan Su Wen notices it and breaks into their circle in a flash, dodging Quan Jian Min’s attack and pushing out of the way, making the graze her shoulder.
“Uff,” said Quan Jian Min, landing on his bottom from her push. He was able to keep his eyes open long enough to see the arrow shoot through and watch it graze Quan Su Wen.
‘She… saved me…? Why…? Something’s not right…’ thought Quan Jian Min.
“Father! The prisoner is not at our house anymore! Our house got ruined!” said a woman’s voice. It was a familiar voice to Quan Su Wen and she glared at the woman next to her father.
“Sister… Jiang…? Father…? What the hell is going on?” said Quan Jian Min, to himself. He watched as the guards near his father come their way, not to protect but to fight against them.
“Father…? Why are you trying to kill brother Xue and Brother Wei-Kang?” said Quan Jian Min.
His voice was heard before the guards reached them and Minister Quan stops them.
“Stop!” said Minister Quan. “Wait… Did you just ask me… Why I’m doing this…?”
He had an loud and angry voice. It scared the 3 of them but Quan Su Wen didn’t flinch.
“I’ve been working on this for years! Those f*cken slave traders didn’t do jack sh!t seven years ago and I thought I wouldn’t have another chance once they stole all the people which I was suppose to rule! But…”
Minister Quan looked up and smiled evilly.
“But I found Chu Hoi-Mo and he gather up the citizens for me without me even breaking a sweat. But the other ministers showed up and I had no choice but to run along his little fairy tale plan and fortunately, it worked out. When he came back with the citizens, I was overjoyed and couldn’t wait to take over once I kill the emperor but…. She showed up,” said Minister Quan.
He looked directly at Quan Su Wen and her brothers and gave them a gentle smile.
“She was like a beautiful flower, flowing through the wind… Lady Lin…”
“Lady… Lin?” said Quan Xue. ‘You held your power all this time for… Lady Lin!?’
“Never have I ever meet such a beautiful woman. But… she didn’t want me… so I killed her!”
“Huh!?” The other Ministers never heard of that and were super surprised.
“You killed our savior!?” said a guard. ‘You told us that we are doing this because the emperor killed Lady Lin!”
“Hahaha!” laughed Minister Quan. “It’s too late now! The sword I stabbed the emperor and the first general was laced with poison and they are both going to die.”
“Who’s the person that’s imprisoned in our basement?” asked Quan Xue.
“You don’t need to know!” said Quan Jiang. She crossed her arms and glared at her siblings down below.
“It’s just some princess that needed our help. She had that beauty pill and we just took it from her and left her to die in the basement,” said Quan Huan Lan.
She came out from a hallway walking towards her father. “It’s not like you are coming out of here alive.”
She had an evil smile, looking down at her siblings. The other sister, Quan Fen He came out of the same hallway, dragging someone behind her.
It was a little boy, hair darker then normal, and struggling to fight.
“Yi Ying!” said Quan Su Wen. ‘Why are you here!? I thought Yu Yan was keeping you safe!?’
‘She was… I got careless on the way back to the Ma residence and also got Wei Ru captured along with me,”‘ said Quan Yi Ying, telepathically.
Right after he said that, a guard walked over to them with another tied up boy and violently threw him on the ground.
“Omph!” groaned Wei Ru.
“Here’s the kid,” said the guard. He was breathing heavily and had lots of wounds and cuts on him.
“Watch it!” said Wei Ru after getting up from the ground. He was also covered in blood and wounds.
“He’s a tough little brat but we finally got him tied up and found the black turtle,” said the guard.
“It took you forever… to finally tie down a little kid…?” said Minister Quan. “What disappointment.”
The guard looked offended but did nothing about it. He walked away and noticed the face changes his friends had as if something is wrong with what they are doing.
The guard turns around and then screams in pain. “Ahhh!!!”
The guard got slashed on the back before he could turn around and died immediately. He has been cut down by Minister Quan.
“This is what happens if you defy me!” said Minister Quan. The other guards tremble in fear and stood in place from the shock.
“Now, bow to me!” said Minister Quan.
All the guards bowed in fear. Minister Quan has eyes of a mad man and they didn’t want to alarm him so they followed his order.
“Y-yes sir!” they all said.
“That’s right,” said Minister Quan, nodding his head and smiling like a psycho.
“I know you want to defeat him, brother. But I want to kill him myself,” Quan Su Wen said to Quan Xue, Quan Jian Min, and Quan Wei-Kang. “Out of all of us… I’m the one who wants to kill him the most.”
She looked at all three of them in the eye and said with determination and anger, “And none of you are going to take that from me.”
The other three eyes widen. Quan Jian Min has always bullied her as a child because their father hated the her. Her mother wasn’t the same as the other wives, she was a little… off. But because she was from a good family, Minister Quan married her and she mysteriously… died.
Minister Quan always talked crap about Quan Su Wen because she knows how she died. Since then, she has been disowned and treated unfairly. Even Quan Jian Min, Quan Xue, and Quan Wei-Kang’s mother, influenced them to bully her.
One day… they witness their father… murder their mother. Their mother wasn’t a great person, for bullying the weak, but she is their mother and because of it, they know who their father really is.
“He’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Same goes with sisters,” said Quan Jian Min, finally realizing what is really going on. “I didn’t believe it. No, I didn’t want to believe it. But I was wrong. It really happened. Father… is the real mad man.”
Quan Jian Min hid that memory deep in his mind because he didn’t want to believe his father was the bad guy.
“Minister Quan!” Quan Su Wen yelled. “You f*cken bastard! You’ll never be the ruler of this empire! No, of any empire!”
