Chapter 1496: Chapter 1496: Not Letting Sui Zimo Live Through the Night!

"Master, Princess Consort Yi, she is one of our own," he reminded, lifting his head to look at him with surprise in his voice.

After all, Princess Consort Yi was one of their own, wasn’t she? The woman would not dare to deceive them, for both her life and Prince Yi’s lay in their hands.

How could she dare to lie to the master?

"How many years have you served by my side?" the man asked suddenly.

Feeling a chill run down his spine and a cold sweat breaking out at the question, the man in black attire replied.

"This subordinate understands. I shall investigate the truth personally and not trust anyone’s words blindly," he said.

"Hmm," the man gave a slight sound of affirmation, indicating his satisfaction with the answer.

"Master, what should we do once we find Yin Baiqing?" the man in black attire inquired.

"Kill!"

The man gave him a look as if to say, was that even a question, and coldly spat out a single word.

"This subordinate understands," said the man in black attire, acknowledging the command.

"Upon finding Yin Baiqing, this subordinate will make sure Sui Zimo does not survive the night!" he declared fiercely.

"Fool!"

The man gritted his teeth in anger at his words.

If he didn’t currently need this fool to carry out a task, he would have killed him already for such stupidity!

"How many times do I have to say it? Sui Zimo cannot die!" the man exclaimed.

"Hiss,"

Even the man in black attire couldn’t help but suck in a breath of cold air at these words.

Sui Zimo must not die; then was the one the master spoke of killing Yin Baiqing?

That young man was the master’s...

How could he so easily talk of killing his own kin?

But then again, there was nothing strange about it; the master had always been cold-blooded and merciless, killing a relative not of his blood meant nothing to him, right?

"This subordinate understands. Once Yin Baiqing is found, there will be no mercy!" he said.

"Hmm," the man acknowledged.

Just a Yin Baiqing; he could have as many Yin Baiqings as he wanted, so long as Sui Zimo stayed alive, his grand desire would still be achievable.

"If Yin Baiqing is not in Sui Zimo’s possession, then he can be spared," he pondered before adding.

But the likelihood of that was almost nil, Yin Baiqing was surely with Sui Zimo; it was just unknown whether Sui Zimo had discovered anything from Yin Baiqing or not.

If he had discovered something...

It would be troublesome indeed; Sui Zimo really had posed him a significant challenge!

"Has there been any recent unusual activity from Sui Zimo?" he asked.

"Reporting to the master, a few days ago Sui Zimo pursued this subordinate, and it was only through the use of poison that I managed to drive him back. Currently, he should still be recuperating in his own estate," replied the man in black attire.

"You used poison?!"

The man’s voice rose involuntarily, and his brow furrowed with displeasure.

"This... Yes,"

Feeling his master’s displeasure, the man in black attire had no choice but to confirm.

Sui Zimo was too skilled, and he had been injured at that time. If he had resisted, he would have certainly died by Sui Zimo’s hand.

The master wouldn’t care if he died; if he was gone, the master could simply send someone else to the barren lands.

But he did not wish to die yet!

"Damn it! Who gave you permission to use poison on Sui Zimo?!"

Upon receiving his confirmation, a tidal wave of rage from the man swept toward him.
