One and Only: Doting CEO's Infinite Love-Chapter 777 - 775: Xiao Jinghuai, you’re here

Jiang Yixiu knew clearly if Huo Junting wanted to tear apart the scheming ghost, it would be more than just an angry shout; Huohuo would truly be gone.

And Huo Junting indeed has the ability to do so.

Moreover, he’s observed lately that Jin Bao Yan feels guilty towards him, or rather towards Huohuo, so if Huo Junting really decided to deal with him, he wouldn’t fight back but would personally hand him the murder weapon.

Afraid they haven’t finished dealing with Taohuawu yet when betrayal might suddenly arise, Jiang Yixiu immediately admonishes, "Alright, alright, your grudges and all that, let’s sort them out once we get out safely, how big a deal is it! Maybe when we return, Huohuo will be bouncing in front of us."

"She’s always loved to play, so it’s not impossible."

Huo Junting’s gaze deepened further, "It’s also possible she’s never found; Jin Bao Yan, I just want to ask you, during the time Huohuo stayed with you, what did you do to her, and after all these years, what about your child? Could she have taken the child with her when she left?"

"..." Jin Bao Yan didn’t say a word, maintaining an indifferent expression, but Jiang Yixiu clearly saw his hands tightly clenching his own palm.

The once intact flesh of his hand was now bloodied and mangled, yet he didn’t even frown.

Jiang Yixiu thought that sometimes the scheming ghost could be even more unfathomable than Old Xiao.

"Always keeping silent like this." Huo Junting suddenly got angry, "Jin Bao Yan, I’m telling you, even if I kill you directly now, you can’t blame me. I’ve given you plenty of chances."

Jiang Yixiu saw they were truly about to fight and his expression turned more serious, "Isn’t it messy enough? Can’t you see how Song Song is now? Her whole body probably only her soul remains hers; the rest has been replaced."

"Do you know who replaced it? It was done by the ruler here, don’t you know we are dealing with... a monster now?"

Someone who can harm their kin is nothing but a monster.

——

And at this time, Xiao Jinghuai went directly to meet that "monster."

He didn’t want to drag his three brothers down; their willingness to enter was already a burden for him. Life is always more precious than anything else, and they each had people they cared about.

Of course, he did too, but he was now left with no choice.

From the very beginning, they were targeted as soon as they entered Taohuawu.

All the notions of Heaven, Hell, even Su Ting, were just distractions.

Everything they did was under the control of the one called the "Holy Emperor."

Including, he easily saw through Su Ting’s disguise as Song Song.

With Xiao Jinghuai’s stamina, running thousands or even tens of thousands of steps wasn’t difficult, but it indeed left him without the strength for battle once he reached his destination.

He suddenly realized this so-called "Holy Emperor" wasn’t at all an upright person, with a craftiness beyond measure, might just be some renowned fool in reality.

Upon reaching the summit, Xiao Jinghuai found the place resembling a small palace, with several flowers and plants in front of the courtyard.

They were flowers he had never seen before, extraordinarily vibrant, almost toxic.

Suddenly he heard a rustling sound, like snakes creeping through the grass, or like footsteps, yet he was certain there was nothing around.

"...Holy Emperor, come out, if you’re Song Song’s great-grandfather, why are you so harsh on her? Come out!"

"Xiao Jinghuai, you’ve arrived."

Suddenly from within the house came a sound, part human, part demon, part monk, sounding like an echo from mountains and waters afar—
