Rebirth: My Healer Wife Owns Superpowers

Chapter 18: From now on, I am your dog!

The kneeling people all stretched their necks, staring at Qi Yue with blazing fire in their eyes.

They would regain their freedom, return to the Capital City, and become people of high status!

All it took was to offer up a cripple!

What a simple and perfect choice it was!

Qi Fengzhang also fixed his gaze on Qi Yue’s silhouette.

What did it matter if he were cursed at?

As long as his capable niece curried favor with the disreputable man and gained her freedom, he was confident he could persuade the disreputable man to allow his family to leave with them too.

Once they got into the good graces of the disreputable man, what else was there to fear?

What did it matter if a General Residence was confiscated? He could snatch up ten General Residences in a matter of minutes!

And then, hahaha…

Guan Yidao also fixed his gaze on Qi Yue.

Regaining her freedom, returning to the Capital City; wasn’t it exactly what she wanted?

Now that she had the chance to obtain it so easily, would she still consider the posthumous reputation of General Qi?

Qian Faliang also fixed his gaze on Qi Yue.

He knew no one could resist the charm of that silver note!

If he had known Qi Yue would cave in so easily, why would he have bothered with all this effort?

As Qi Yue stepped closer, the people of the Zhao Family also fixed their eyes on her.

Inside each of them, two selves were fiercely battling.

One self was shouting, she wouldn’t do such a thing!

She was the daughter of General Qi!

She was the one who saved the people of the Zhao Family.

She worried about their food, drink, lodging, and travel along the way, always thinking of the Zhao Family people; she definitely wouldn’t do such a thing.

But the other self was laughing wildly.

She surely would choose freedom, power.

After all, she really was innocently implicated this time!

Qi Yue was unaware of the internal drama in these people’s minds as she walked briskly to Zhao Xiyan’s side and whispered, “I want to spare his life for now, what do you think?”

Zhao Xiyan’s slender body trembled slightly.

What was she saying?

Wasn’t she about to hand him over?

Instead, she was asking his opinion, whether or not to spare Qian Faliang’s life?

From the beginning to the end, she had considered his feelings, avenged him!

He had just been comforting himself that if she truly did present him, he wouldn’t complain.

After all, his life was saved by her!

“This Qian Faliang has many secrets on him, and we still don’t know what he’s up to following us all this way. I’ll figure it out and then kill him.”

Qi Yue continued to explain in a low voice, her tone clear and soft.

He suddenly had a strange notion that the voice seemed to belong to someone else, someone different from the corpulent her before him.

“Okay, do as you see fit.”

“Okay.”

Seeing Qi Yue turn to walk away, he suddenly felt the urge to tell her to be cautious since Qian Faliang was cunning and vicious.

But his eyes fell on her firm stride, and he suddenly felt she would be all right.

She was the most unique, the most formidable woman he had ever met.

A slight smile formed on the corners of his mouth hidden beneath his mask, and a subtle joy began to rise in his heart.

“Qi Yue, no matter who you are, I believe in you.”

As the people of the Zhao Family overheard Qi Yue’s words, they all let out a sigh of relief.

At the same time, they felt ashamed of their suspicions just like Zhao Xiyan, and they silently vowed to trust Qi Yue wholeheartedly from now on!

Watching Qi Yue returning empty-handed, Guan Yidao also heaved a sigh of relief, thinking to himself that he indeed had not misjudged her. The daughter of General Qi indeed had the same bearing as General Qi!

For Qi Fengzhang, things were less comfortable.

Ever since his exile, watching Qi Yue care solidly for the Zhao Family people, ensuring there was always meat in their bowls, he regretted having fallen out with Qi Yue.

Now that such a great opportunity had literally fallen from the sky, he was determined to seize it.

With that in mind, he quickly stepped forward.

“My good niece, what did you say to Zhao Xiyan? Why didn’t you bring him over? How about your uncle helps you?”

Qi Yue, who was just walking normally, felt an inexplicable irritation when she was intercepted like this and immediately kicked, sending Qi Fengzhang flying through the air.

Qian Faliang was feeling quite smug, but upon witnessing this scene, doubts began to arise in his heart too.

“Qi Yue, I told you to bring the person over directly, what are you doing? Are you somehow dissatisfied?”

“Let me tell you, according to our unwritten rules, you…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Qi Yue suddenly smiled slyly and reached out, tossing something round directly into his wide-open mouth.

It was slippery, and before he could react, it had already slid down his throat.

“What, what did you give me to eat?”

“Of course, it’s something good! You’re going to enjoy it in a moment!”

Qi Yue smiled slightly.

All of the onlookers were stunned by this sudden turn of events.

They watched Qian Faliang in astonishment as he suddenly began to roll his eyes back and shake violently all over.

As he shook, the loose flesh on his body bounced up and down as though a Category 12 hurricane was raging inside him, threatening to tear him apart.

And Qi Yue, she was still smiling slyly.

She watched Qian Faliang with interest, seemingly pleased with his reaction.

“You, you poisoned me?!” Qian Faliang collapsed to the ground, desperately scrambling backwards.

Qi Yue frowned slightly, “He’s still conscious? Not enough dosage?”

No sooner had she spoken than Qian Faliang let out a loud scream and stopped moving for good.

“Dead?”

Qi Yue stepped forward, picked up a thin stick from the ground, and lifted Qian Faliang’s eyelid to have a look.

“Too weak, I hope he isn’t dead!”

Her gaze fell on Qian Faliang’s bulging chest, and she couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows.

There must be at least a hundred thousand silver notes in there!

And for some reason, ever since she had that space, her hand had become itchier.

Whenever she saw something valuable, she couldn’t restrain herself.

With a thought, Qian Faliang’s chest instantly caved in.

An inspection revealed a thick stack of silver notes had indeed appeared on the warehouse shelf.

At a glance, there were a whole one hundred and fifty thousand.

This guy was good at making money! Carrying so much cash on the road to exile, who knows how much more was hidden at his home and in his business!

If it all belonged to her, wouldn’t that be beautiful?

Suddenly, Qian Faliang, who had been lying on the ground, sprang to his feet and “thump” kneeled down in front of Qi Yue.

“Miss Qi, I was wrong, I deserve to die! From now on, I’m your dog! Please spare me!”

Qi Yue slightly raised her eyes, “Alright, describe to me how you’re feeling right now! I need to tailor the cure.”

“I, I feel like my internal organs are burning, being pricked by needles, bitten by insects, I feel like I’m rotting away!” Qian Faliang’s face grew paler and his facial muscles started trembling again.

“You described it quite precisely.” Qi Yue smiled as she raised her hand with a red pill between her fingertips.

“Qian Faliang, how much wealth have you accumulated over the years? Tell me the truth, and I’ll give you the antidote.”

Qian Faliang, rolling his eyes, stared fixatedly at the pill in her hand and opened his mouth eagerly.

“Countless jewels and jade articles, innumerable gold and silver. Everything is yours if you wish it, Miss Qi.”

Qi Yue smiled slightly.

“Well then, I’ll accept it.”

As her words fell, the red pill dropped to the ground.

Qian Faliang hurriedly reached out with both hands to catch it.

He didn’t even care that the pill was covered in filth, he grabbed it and stuffed it into his mouth.

A sigh came from everyone in the stable.

It couldn’t be clearer.

Was there something wrong with Qi Yue’s mind?

Having restrained Qian Faliang, why give him the antidote?

Would he still listen to you once he had the antidote?

Even Guan Yidao couldn’t help but step forward, ready to intervene if Qian Faliang suddenly lashed out violently to harm someone.

Only Zhao Xiyan remained calm and composed throughout, he even set aside his crossbow.

Long fingers meticulously adjusted his clothing, and beneath the mask, his handsome face wore a breath-taking smile.

But what happened next seemed to prove that he was wrong.

Qian Faliang, who had been lying on the ground like a dead dog, suddenly leapt up, a dagger in hand, thrusting fiercely towards Qi Yue’s neck.

“Fatty, how could you be so stupid? You believe whatever I say? Hahaha…”

Just as the dagger was about to pierce Qi Yue’s neck, suddenly, the laughing Qian Faliang froze in place.
