Villain Supreme

Kong Yue was back on Yun Xi's bed, and the girl hadn't changed a bit. He held Yun Xi in his arms, smelling the unique fragrance of the girl's body, and feeling how real she was. However, he was sleepless.

Kong Yue had been suffering from insomnia every night recently. Maybe this was his fate. He had to act even though he had known how dangerous it was to assassinate again.

It was another sleepless night for him. There were supposed to be a lot of stars in the sky, but it was mysteriously dim these two nights.

Staring at Yun Xi who was in sound sleep, Kong Yue couldn't help touching her face. In the past two days, he had been doing everything he could to spoil her. He had cooked for her, helped her get dressed, diverted her from boredom, played with her, and appreciated the flowers and the moon with her. He felt so sweet even though he was just watching her sleeping like this. If possible, he wanted to spoil her for a lifetime. He hoped the dawn would never come.

However, dawn was coming. It was grey dawn outside the bedroom window. Kong Yue's eyes could only see Yun Xi. He kissed the girl's pink lips. His lips lingered against hers for a long time, but he had to let her go. He put on a black night suit and a black mask. Yue looked lonely, and his mature and sharp eyes were filled with deep affection and reluctance.

A ray of morning sunlight shone in. Princess Xi was lying on the bed. Her eyes were closed but she wept bitter tears. She had felt something. In the past two days, Yue had been spoiling her, but she could see the intense reluctance hidden in his eyes. He looked at her and didn't sleep last night. In fact, she was also awake. However, she didn't want to make him worried, so she closed her eyes and pretended to be sleeping. Yun Xi did not dare to open her eyes until he left, for fear that she would never see her Yue again.

Yuer knocked on the door gently, "Princess, the imperial edict has just arrived. The king ordered you to go to the hunting ground in the western suburbs. The carriage is waiting outside, and I’ll serve you to dress up."

"I don't need to dress up. I will come out after I get changed."

"Aye."

Her pure and flawless eyes opened. There were complex emotions in her eyes, most of which were anxiety and fear. However, she still had to face it.

The hunting ground in the western suburbs was extremely busy today. All girls were dressed up. They competed for the supremacy of beauty in groups with chatter and laughter. Men were all very energetic, waiting to show their strength. This place was filled with waves of laughter.

A young woman appeared, and she looked incompatible with this scene. Princess Xi was wearing a white mourning dress. There was just a simple hairpin in her long, shiny, and black hair that reached her waist. And she didn't wear any makeup. Yun Xi walked slowly towards the pavilion where King Yun was without any expression. From a distance, it seemed that she was not here to greet the king but to attend a funeral.

Princess Xi walked in the pavilion like a soulless jade doll. The princess ignored officers and princes nearby. She bowed slightly to King Yun and then walked away before King Yun spoke.

King Yun had been in a good mood. Seeing Princess Xi acting like this, he got so angry. Crown Prince Yun Su nearby came out immediately to mediate. Yun Su didn't want to come out, but this time his Sister Xi had gone too far. No king could tolerate someone wearing a mourning dress in front of him. Although King Yun could not kill her, he would not spare her easily.

"Father, you haven't been so happy as today for so long. I must hunt a big animal for you. I can’t wait for the game to start."

His son was changing the topic deliberately. King Yun frowned, but he would still respect him since there were so many people here. "Well, then today's hunting shall officially begin."

Yun Su, Yun Zhi, and some princes of the Kingdom of Yun first entered the forest to hunt. Soon young officials and the sons of some ministers also joined them. Cheering sounds kept ringing outside the forest. Many noble ladies were waving their handkerchiefs in excitement, hoping that the young men in the forest could cast a look at them.

Princess Xi hid in the corner alone away from others, as if she had no relationship with this world. She was really scared. Today, she wore this mourning dress for some reason. Kong Yue happened to leave on the imperial hunting day. The helpless girl could only pray silently to gods in her heart. But no matter how pious Yun Xi was at this moment, what she feared most still happened.

A great number of people in black suddenly appeared in the imperial hunting ground. The people in black separated slowly, leaving a path for one person to pass. A leading man with mature and sharp eyes appeared. There was an irresistibly domineering temperament on his countenance. He was holding a sharp sword in his hand and he drew a trace on the ground. The man looked directly at King Yun in the pavilion with the compelling sharpness in his eyes.

This time, soldiers rushed out and stopped them in the middle of the hunting ground. They fought with the black-clothed men far away from the pavilion. People in black rushed up desperately one by one, brandishing their swords and fighting frantically. They didn't care their bodies had been cut for so many times. Facing these desperadoes, the soldiers also braced up to attack. One fell and another one replaced his place. The scene was out of control.
