Becoming Invincible By Marrying The Ultimate Villainess - Chapter 56 - Chapter 56 – The Villain Wife Strikes — Total Wipeout!

As soon as the words were spoken, everyone in the hall turned their gaze to Ning Ye. The courtiers of Junlin were utterly confused—what was the Second Prince, Wu Lintian, doing?

Wasn’t today supposed to be the memorial for the Third Prince?

Why was the Second Prince questioning Ning Ye as soon as he entered the palace?

What did this have to do with Ning Ye?

“This guy… is going to attack Ning Ye?”

Behind the veil, Mu Lingxi let out a faint smile.

“What is he trying to do?”

Mu Lin took a deep breath, the ominous feeling in her heart growing stronger.

“Second Brother, what do you mean by that?”

Wu Yao looked at Wu Lintian in confusion, asking.

Wu Lintian, however, ignored Wu Yao’s question and instead continued to address Ning Ye.

“I’ll ask you again!”

“Ning Ye!”

“Do you realize your crime?”

Heh!

Ning Ye chuckled and shook his head, asking in response: “May I ask, Your Highness the Second Prince…”

“What crime have I committed?”

Hmph!

Wu Lintian snorted coldly and said: “Ning Ye!”

“You truly don’t know?”

“Fine, fine, fine!”

“I see you won’t shed a tear until you see the coffin!”

“Let me ask you this!”

“That night—the Crown Prince’s birthday banquet—chaos erupted in the palace!”

“Where were you?”

Upon hearing this, Ning Ye did not respond. He simply stood silently, watching Wu Lintian put on his performance.

“Not going to speak?”

“Fine!”

“I’ll speak for you!”

Wu Lintian, hands behind his back, sneered before continuing:

“The Crown Prince’s birthday banquet!”

“The Empress was attacked!”

“Taking advantage of the chaos in the palace, you first went to the Crown Prince’s chamber and stole the Crown Prince’s secret jade!”

“Then you went to the forbidden area of the Scroll Hall and looted the three most precious treasures of the Junlin Empire!”

“You thought you had done it perfectly, but my third brother and his wife caught you. Then, you killed them to silence them… Is what I said correct?”

After his words fell, the entire hall fell into a brief, eerie silence, before erupting into an uproar.

“What?!”

“The one who broke into the Scroll Hall and killed the Third Prince… was Ning Ye?!”

“How is that possible?”

“Didn’t they say it was the demonic cultivators who were the culprits?”

…

At this moment, all the courtiers in the Junlin Hall were staring at Ning Ye in shock. Even if they wracked their brains, they never could have imagined that the mastermind behind it all was Ning Ye.

How could it be him?

Wu Yao was equally stunned. She had always thought that it was the Crown Prince’s wife, Mu Lin, who had secretly betrayed them.

“Does no one believe me?”

Wu Lintian scanned the confused faces of the courtiers, then confidently clapped his hands.

At that moment, an elder dressed in black slowly walked into the hall.

Ning Ye immediately recognized the elderly figure—he was the very same person who had been in the forbidden area of the Scroll Hall that night.

“Old Master Ye!”

“That night, all of Junlin’s Ten Great Generals were absent from the palace.”

“Only you witnessed everything, didn’t you?”

Wu Lintian asked with a smile on his face.

“Yes!”

“Your Highness the Second Prince!”

Old Master Ye nodded in acknowledgment.

“Then, Old Master Ye, tell us…”

“Who was the one who broke into the Scroll Hall that night?”

“And who killed my third brother and his wife?”

Wu Lintian’s mood surged as he glared at Ning Ye, his eyes filled with killing intent.

“In response to His Highness the Second Prince…”

“The person who broke into the Scroll Hall was indeed Yanyun’s Tenth Prince, Ning Ye!”

“And the one who killed the Third Prince and his wife was also Ning Ye!”

Old Ye lowered his head and responded flatly.

At these words, a storm of murmurs erupted in the hall. Many people knew that Old Ye had an impressive background—he was an elder who had fought alongside the Wu Emperor. Though not one of the Ten Great Generals, his cultivation and combat abilities were no less formidable than any of the Ten!

“Ning Ye!”

“Is what my second brother said true?”

“Did you really kill my third brother?”

Wu Yao clenched her teeth, her eyes burning with fury as she glared at Ning Ye, her hand resting on the hilt of her sword.

Ning Ye furrowed his brows, not responding to Wu Yao’s question. He was deep in thought.

The current situation was clearly a setup orchestrated by his fiancée, Jun Qianyue!

Did she want to kill him?

That didn’t seem likely.

After all, they shared mutual benefits, and she wouldn’t go that far.

But whether it was the Second Prince or Old Master Ye, both were loyal to Jun Qianyue!

So, what exactly was this woman trying to do?

And just as he was contemplating, it seemed like he suddenly figured something out.

This woman… seems to have another plan!

At that moment, a melodious, magnetic laugh—a voice distinctly feminine—echoed from outside the palace:

“Heh heh heh heh!”

“Today’s palace is really quite lively!”

As the voice faded, a graceful figure slowly entered the Junlin Palace.

Today, she wore a white feather gown, the hem adorned with gold-foil moon carvings.

Her dark hair was elegantly tied up, exuding nobility and beauty!

The summer sunlight shone on her strikingly cold yet enchanting face, making her even more dazzling!

Upon seeing her, the prominent figures in the palace drew a sharp breath.

“The Divine Strategy Army!”

“Miss Jun, the Second Miss!”

Jun Qianyue!

Behind the curtain, Mu Lingxi’s eyes gleamed with cold light.

“It’s her!”

Wu Yao tightened her grip on her sword hilt.

“She’s here!”

Mu Lin took a deep breath.

And when Wu Lintian saw Jun Qianyue, his cold eyes suddenly burned with intensity. He immediately stepped forward and softly asked: “Why are you here?”

“I told you, everything today is under my control, didn’t I?”

Hearing this, Jun Qianyue ignored Wu Lintian completely. In full view of everyone, she slowly walked up to Ning Ye, her red lips curling as she addressed Wu Lintian:

“Your Highness the Second Prince, may I ask who gave you the courage to question my future husband like this?”

What?

Wu Lintian was stunned, standing frozen in place as he stared at Jun Qianyue.

“You… what do you mean?”

“Didn’t you tell me… that Ning Ye broke into the Scroll Hall’s forbidden area, and that it was Ning Ye who killed my third brother?”

“Yes!”

Jun Qianyue nodded, not denying it.

At this moment, everyone in the hall was stunned!

So, it was Jun Qianyue who provided the clues?

But if that was the case, why was Jun Qianyue, today, acting as if she was defending her husband, contradicting her previous actions?

“Miss Jun!”

“Did you know all of this?”

Wu Yao asked sharply.

“Of course I knew!”

Jun Qianyue smiled faintly.

“Then what about now? Are you trying to protect Ning Ye?”

Wu Yao questioned once again.

Heh heh!

The smile on Jun Qianyue’s face grew even more pronounced. She raised her hand and patted Ning Ye on the shoulder, saying: “Naturally, I’m going to protect him!”

“After all, he is my future husband!”

Again, that phrase!

Upon hearing this, Ning Ye couldn’t help but shake his head, thinking to himself: How does this woman love to put on a show!

“Insolence!!”

Wu Yao couldn’t take it anymore. Hearing Jun Qianyue’s arrogant words, she unsheathed her sword, pointing it directly at her.

“Qianyue, are you insane?!”

Wu Lintian’s eyes widened in shock, his heart trembling.

Everything had been orchestrated by Jun Qianyue.

So why was she now tearing it all apart herself?

Hmph!

Jun Qianyue gave a soft snort, completely ignoring Wu Lintian. Instead, she turned to Old Ye and spoke: “Old Master Ye!”

“Tell us!”

“Who killed the Third Prince and his wife that night?”

Cough cough cough!

Old Ye cleared his throat three times before seriously speaking up in the hall: “It was Ning Ye who killed the Third Prince!”

“It was Miss Jun who killed the Third Prince’s wife!”

The words dropped, and the entire hall fell silent.

No one had expected this… Miss Jun had actually been involved in the killings that night alongside Ning Ye!

“You…”

“Why did you do this?”

“I refuse to believe it!”

“I don’t believe… you would do that to me!”

Wu Lintian’s mouth hung open, staring in disbelief at Jun Qianyue.

“Don’t believe me?”

Jun Qianyue raised an eyebrow, the corner of her lips curling into a cold smile.

The next moment!

Clang!!!

Her fingertips glowed with ethereal light!

Whoosh!

Blood splattered along with shards of armor and fragments of bone!

At this moment, the entire Junlin Palace fell into an eerie silence. Everyone stared wide-eyed at the bloody scene unfolding before them.

Jun Qianyue’s punch had pierced through Wu Lintian’s chest, leaving a gaping, bowl-sized hole in the heart of this legendary military god of the Eastern Wilderness!

“You… You… You killed me?”

Wu Lintian gasped, staring at the face of the woman he had long admired, feeling a cold chill running through his body.

Heh!

Jun Qianyue laughed softly as she withdrew her hand, pulling a handkerchief from her sleeve to wipe the blood from her hands. She then casually asked: “Now do you believe me?”

At that moment, the light in Wu Lintian’s eyes gradually dimmed.

Boom!!!

With a loud crash, he collapsed to the floor, perishing in an instant!

No one had expected… the son of the royal family, the military god, the famous Second Prince Wu Lintian of the Junlin Empire, to die so easily… at the hands of the woman he had always adored—Jun Qianyue, the Second Miss of the Jun family!

“Second Brother!!!”

Wu Yao looked at Wu Lintian’s lifeless body, her eyes bloodshot with rage.

“Seize her!”

“Seize Jun Qianyue for me!”

Mu Lingxi immediately issued an order to the Ten Great Generals.

What a rare opportunity this was—how could she let it slip away?

“Your Majesty, don’t worry!”

“There will be a time for you to be anxious!”

Jun Qianyue shook her head.

As her words fell, an elderly man dressed in a blue Taoist robe appeared in the hall.

Ning Ye immediately recognized him… it was one of the four great elders of the Tianji Pavilion, whom he had met once at Tianmen Pass.

And the moment Elder Tianji entered the hall, Mu Lingxi’s expression changed drastically. She seemed to realize something!

“Ladies and gentlemen!”

“I won’t hide it from you!”

“The Third Prince was killed by Ning Ye!”

“The Third Princess Consort was indeed killed by me!”

“As you can all see… Wu Lintian, was also killed by me!”

“But, what you don’t know is…”

“They were all true practitioners of the demonic path!”

“Is there anything wrong with killing them?”

Jun Qianyue smiled as she spoke, her hands clasped behind her back.

“Jun Qianyue!”

“What nonsense are you spouting!”

“My second brother, my third brother, how could they be demonic path practitioners?”

Wu Yao asked, tears brimming in her eyes as she confronted Jun Qianyue.

“Oh?”

“Wrong!”

“Not just your second brother, third brother!”

“Even… your eldest brother, your eldest sister-in-law, and even… your mother are all practitioners of the demonic path!”

Jun Qianyue shook her head, her cold, beautiful face breaking into a more intense smile.

“Good heavens… this woman has set a trap, stirring up chaos to take down both the Yin Yang Sect and the Junlin Royal Family… all in one go!”

At this moment, Ning Ye couldn’t help but chuckle.
