Chapter 153 It Is Time to End

Yuan Qing ignored the things directed at her and the people that came in from behind. She walked up to David Lean with a calm expression, but her slightly clenched fists showed her anger and hatred.

"David Lean, the tragedy of my Yuan Family started at my house because of you. Then I will end it at your house."

David Lean raised his eyes and looked into Yuan Qing's eyes, which were indifferent and terrifying. His heart felt cold for no reason as the cold quickly spread throughout his body. He looked at Yuan Qing seriously again. Her expression was calm, but the bad premonition in his heart became more uneasy.

Yuan Qing didn't give David Lean a chance to react. She moved her right hand and used her inner force to hit him.

"Kill them!" David Lean's pupils trembled as he quickly pounced to the left and roared at the same time.

David Lean's men immediately started shooting.

Mu Tianen and the others began to dodge.

David Lean's subordinates, who were at the door, could not come in.

Another group of people appeared behind them, fighting together.

Mu Tianen and the others looked at each other.

"Where did they come from?" Mickey asked, squatting behind a stone pillar.

"It should be someone Master arranged in Country K," Jin Yi said as he glanced at the butler standing behind Master.

He always felt that his Master had a backup plan.

After all, his Master had endured for so many years. She wouldn't be unprepared.

Those people were indeed Yuan Qing's. She had arranged for them to hide here yesterday and kill their way in through the back door.

She wouldn't be unprepared and let her disciple accompany her while risking their lives.

At this moment, Yuan Qing only saw David Lean. The latter knew he was no match for Yuan Qing, so he retreated and ran toward the basement. As long as he entered, he would be safe.

Yuan Qing's steps were like a hunter walking step by step toward prey that could not fight back.

David Lean's steps were messy and impatient. He looked back at Yuan Qing from time to time. Her calm appearance made him even more shocked. He ran to the door of the basement.

David Lean frantically pressed his fingerprint, but there was no response. The door could not be opened no matter what.

"It's useless. The entire castle has been controlled by my disciple. Otherwise, why do you think the infrared rays outside the door are useless?"

Yuan Qing's cold voice came from behind.

David Lean turned around with his back against the door. His heart was in his throat. The fear in his eyes could not be hidden. He could not control his voice, "Yuan. No. Ah Qing, let's talk."

Yuan Qing stopped three meters away from David Lean. The calmness in her eyes gradually turned cold, "David Lean. We have nothing to talk about. It's time to end everything."

"No, no, no. I will compensate you with everything I have..."

David Lean still wanted to say something, but Yuan Qing interrupted, "Do you remember the bowl of decoction I made you drink?"

Thinking of the bowl of decoction, David Lean's heart was lifted again, "What is that?" he asked cautiously.

"It's the thing you dream of."

Yuan Qing looked at David Lean in shock.

"What do you mean?"

"What I mean is that your illness is about to recover."

"Almost recover? No, didn't you say my illness was incurable?" David Lean anxiously took a few steps forward and forgot his fear.

"I said there is no way to save you in the medicine book. I didn't say I can't cure you," Yuan Qing said with a hint of ridicule.

All these years, she studied many medical books, read countless cases, and even used her own body to test the medicine. Finally, she found the prescription to cure David Lean.

David Lean still did not believe it. He shook his head, "Impossible. After I came back, I had a physical examination. Not only did my body not improve, but it was worse. Impossible, you are lying to me."

David Lean almost lost control of himself and shouted out the last sentence.

"That is because there is still one last step that I have not done."

"What?" David Lean asked anxiously.

As soon as Yuan Qing finished her words, she moved to David Lean and grabbed his neck with her left hand.

She lifted her coat with her right hand and a silver needle bag hanging at her waist appeared under David Lean's eyes.

Yuan Qing didn't even need to look. She quickly pulled out a silver needle and quickly inserted it into the acupuncture point on the top of David Lean's head.

Before David Lean could react, Yuan Qing released him as if touching him for one more second would dirty her hands.

David Lean slid down the door and fell to the ground. He breathed hard and raised his hand to pull out the silver needle on the top of his head.

"If you pull it out, all my previous efforts will be in vain."

David Lean's raised hand froze in the air with half-believing eyes.

"We'll know the result in fifteen minutes," Yuan Qing said with a cold smile.

Yuan Qing understood David Lean. His wish was finally about to come true. He would wait.

Sure enough, Li En David put his hand down.

Suddenly, a wave of pain burst forth and spread throughout his body in an instant as if countless needles were pricking him and he was being bitten by a snake.

"Ah..."

David Lean couldn't bear the pain and fell to the ground. His facial features were wrinkled as he was in pain. He broke out in cold sweat. He seemed to have just come out from the water.

"Do you know why I want to cure you?" Yuan Qing asked, admiring the pained look on David Lean's face.

Although David Lean was in pain, her cold words reached his ears. He struggled to hold back the pain in his bones. He raised his head and looked at Yuan Qing. Although she was smiling, he felt her cold and anger.

"That's because I want to see the despair of you falling from heaven to hell as soon as you see hope."

"Ah, Ah Qing, I was wrong," David Lean reached out to pull Yuan Qing's foot.

However, Yuan Qing took two steps back to avoid it and looked at David Lean quietly.

15 minutes was as long as a century for David Lean. The pain was endless as his perception was clear. His whole body was curled up into a ball.

Yuan Qing saw that it was time. She bent down and put away the silver needles. The pain disappeared instantly. David Lean seemed to be reborn. In the next moment, he was pulled up.

Yuan Qing pulled David Lean back to the living room.

The living room was controlled by Mu Tianen and Jin Yi.

"Miss, everyone is under control," the butler said as he walked to Yuan Qing.

Yuan Qing nodded and threw David Lean to the ground at the same time. When the latter heard this, he looked up and saw all of his people have been arrested. With nearly a hundred people in the castle, how could they lose in such a short time?

David Lean looked out in confusion. Many people were standing there, but they were not his people. He looked back at Yuan Qing, "You were already prepared?"

Although it was a question, he sounded certain.

Yuan Qing squatted down and stared coldly at David Lean's face, "I have waited for this day for twenty-seven years. I want to be safe. Can I not be prepared?"

"I prepared those people since I found out your true identity. Even if I let you escape from Nanyang City, it is part of my plan."

David Lean looked at Yuan Qing with a strange gaze as if having never known her before. The young Yuan Qing did not have any schemes and was straight.

"You forced me to become like this," Yuan Qing could tell his thought.

Yuan Qing stood up and turned her back to David Lean, "My Yuan Family didn't want to be rich or noble. We only want to be safe and sound. A man's wealth is a crime. There are too many ambitious people. You have forced my Yuan Family into a dead end. Can I still be as stupid as to be deceived by you and let them bully me?"

David Lean was stumped.

"I was carefree because people helped me shoulder the responsibility and work hard. Now I am alone, and I can only rely on myself."

David Lean slowly lowered his head.

Jin Yi's phone vibrated. He picked it up and looked at it. Then, he looked at Yuan Qing and said, "Master, Shuting said the police have arrived. They will arrive in five minutes."

Hearing this, a glimmer of hope appeared in David Lean's eyes.

"It's time to end everything, David Lean," Yuan Qing said as she turned around and looked down at David Lean with a cold smile.

"Yuan Qing, if you kill me, you won't be able to leave Country K. You have to think about it carefully," David Lean said after sensing Yuan Qing's resolute attitude.

"You don't have to worry about that. Just enjoy the most healthy time of your life," Yuan Qing looked at the butler, who answered, "Miss, everything is locked."

Yuan Qing closed her eyes as the burden on her body seemed to loosen a little, "Guanwen, you come."

That year, Zhong Guanwen was burned for saving her, and his family died in that fire.

The butler, Zhong Guanwen, stepped forward and picked up the stick at the side. Step by step, he walked toward David Lean. His expressionless face gradually became filled with hatred. He raised his hand and smashed it toward his left foot.

After a 'kacha' sound, David Lean screamed.

Zhong Guanwen seemed to not hear it as he hit again and again until he was sure David Lean's left foot was broken.

David Lean collapsed to the ground. The pain of breaking his bones caused his entire mind to be in chaos as he almost fainted from the pain.

It was the first time Mu Tianen and the others knew the butler's name. It was also the first time they saw such a vicious and angry expression on his face, but they were not afraid.

Yuan Qing looked at David Lean one last time. It was time to end everything that had happened in the past few decades, "You should experience what Yuan Family experienced once too. It's time to put an end to it."

Then she lifted her foot and left.

Jin Yi, Mu Tianen, and the others also left.

Zhong Guanwen threw the stick in his hand on the ground and finally left, closing the door again.

David Lean wanted to crawl toward the door, but the pain in his left foot made him unable to move. He watched in despair as the door closed and everything returned to darkness.

"Let's do what he once did. Burn the house."

Following Yuan Qing's words, Zhong Guanwen threw the lighter toward the door covered in kerosene.

The flames burned and stung Yuan Qing's eyes. The scene of her Yuan Family being burned all those years ago appeared before her eyes.

The faces of her loved ones appeared in her mind one by one. Yuan Qing clenched her hands tightly. Her calloused palms were painful, reminding her of everything that had happened.

Tears fell uncontrollably from the corners of her eyes, but her heart was unprecedentedly relaxed.

She had taken her revenge. Everything dissipated with this fire.

Yuan Qing turned around and left. Everyone disappeared into the darkness.
