Chapter 979: Chapter 979: The Mission Just Failed

Sui Zilin was restrained by Zhe Jue with his arms twisted behind his back, yet he was still there, shouting that it was nothing serious, he had only killed the son of a subject; at most, he could compensate with more silver, and that would be the end of it.

Commander Mo watched as Sui Zilin was tied up, but could only swallow his saliva in silence, daring not to say a word.

Because they all had witnessed Sui Zilin stabbing Suri to death, if they allowed Sui Zilin to ride in a carriage into Shaohua City pompously at this moment, National Teacher Suyang would definitely quarrel with the Emperor.

If the Emperor and the National Teacher were to quarrel, the consequences would not be something they, as subjects, could afford.

Even if he had the desire to save Sui Zilin, he dared not do so; moreover, he did not want to save such a fool who could kill someone in front of so many people. Let Sui Zilin suffer more.

"Young master, young master."

Steward Xin knelt there, his face covered in tears as he looked at the body of Suri.

Before leaving the National Teacher’s residence, he had repeatedly assured his superior that he would ensure the young master’s safety, that he would not let Prince Mo touch a hair on the young master’s head.

Who could have known that it wasn’t Prince Mo who would harm his young master, but Prince Lin Sui Zilin!

How was he to explain this to the National Teacher? And that Sui Zilin, truly deserving death, where had his young master offended him to deserve such a severe attack?

"Steward Xin, carry your young master’s... let’s go, return to your superior to seek justice," Jiang Li approached him and said.

The current situation was unexpected by all, and the most infuriating part was that Suri had not only been killed but also implicated his family’s matriarch. This time, how could his lord possibly let Sui Zilin off easily?!

Now it was his lord and the National Teacher who could openly join forces against Sui Zilin!

Hearing his words, Steward Xin glared hatefully, looking at the still-shouting Sui Zilin, who had been bound. If not for his own status as a mere servant, he would certainly have fought Sui Zilin to the death!

"Just wait, just wait!"

He must report the matter in full detail to his superior, to have his superior uphold justice for the young master!

...

Inside the Golden Pearl Space, as soon as she entered, Sui Ziyou greeted Lin Caisang, who looked terrified; she was truly scared.

"Sister-in-law, how did you get into such a state, where have you been?"

She couldn’t help but swallow her saliva, looking at Lin Caisang as if she had been fished out of the snow.

"It’s nothing, I just failed the mission," Lin Caisang replied.

Lin Caisang tried to lift her arm but found her stiff arms could not be raised; only her mouth could still make sounds.

"Mission failed?"

Sui Ziyou was confused for a moment, but quickly understood.

"Suri is dead? That’s impossible, isn’t it? Sister-in-law, your medical skills are so good, how could Suri possibly... Sister-in-law, sister-in-law?"

Before she could finish her words, she felt a blur in front of her eyes; Lin Caisang, who had been standing before her, suddenly disappeared.

...

In a place full of ice and snow, the ground was covered with many jade books, as if one could crush one or two by simply stepping on them, making it feel like there was nowhere to step.

At this moment, Lin Caisang was standing in that place, the stiff feeling in her body gone, but still so cold that she shivered uncontrollably.

"This is the place for punishment upon mission failure?"

’Here you may read the jade books you wish to see, and the Golden Pearl will record your time and speed. Once you have learned a certain amount, you may leave. Mission points, as usual.’
