Chapter 723 Driving off Wanzhang Cliff

In the next second, she found herself pushed into Yunan's arms. She could not understand how Muchen could suddenly muster such strength.

The two men exchanged glances. No one bothered to ask Ziyue what she thought.

Then, Muchen stood up and ran in the direction Yuchuan escaped.

Yuchuan had run off amid the commotion.

Although Muchen was focused on protecting Ziyue, he still closely observed where Yuchuan went.

Yuchuan committed too many evil deeds, but it did not change the fact that he was Muchen's grandfather. Now that Yuchuan was forced to the brink, Muchen knew it would be too dangerous for anyone to pursue him.

Therefore, Muchen had to do it himself.

Ziyue struggled to free herself to follow Muchen, but Yuchuan restrained her firmly. She could do nothing but watch Muchen heading to his doom.

Yuchuan is desperate. Who knows what he will do!

"Muchen and I discussed the matter and believed this was the best plan. Although he has evidence, it was not enough, so we had to act to force Yuchuan to admit he was Lagos. Only then will we have sufficient reason to arrest him!"

Yunan sounded urgent and briefly explained everything.

Ziyue guessed the rest without needing him to explain.

She knew Muchen and Yunan also collaborated to expose the news about Muchen and her divorce. They deliberately misled her to think Yunan was behind it, prompting her to leave the house. That would give Muchen a chance to meet with Youchuan.

She figured out everything and understood why they did it. Furthermore, she was thankful they did not keep her out of it and even brought her here.

However, how could she bear to see Muchen facing danger alone?

She shook her head at Yunan, but he ignored her.

He secured an arm around Ziyue as he retreated and held a gun in his other hand. He seemed to have some difficulty.

Ziyue looked down at his pocket stuffed with car keys.

She knew the car keys were there because she had seen him put them in. While Yunan was distracted, she grabbed the key, kicked him hard, and ran away. Ziyue had kicked so hard that Yunan gritted his teeth in pain. "Ziyue!"

He glared at her furiously. Why is there such a reckless woman?

She moved some distance from him before turning around and looking at Yunan. Her eyes flashed with determination.

Although she did not say anything, Yunan understood her resolve.

She was fearless and did not care how risky it was.

Yunan felt a flutter of emotions in that instant, only to come to his senses and remind himself that she belonged to another man.

Although he had always liked Ziyue, it was merely because she was prettier than an average woman. Moreover, she was more honest and straightforward than ordinary women.

Of all the time he had known her, she had never looked as dazzling as she did when she walked off.

She exited the house and saw many people in the yard. Half were Yuchuan's people, while the other half were brought here by Yunan. There was also a small group of people that Muchen had assigned in advance.

They were about to head into the house when they saw Ziyue. Muchen's people came over to escort her.

Ziyue left the house safely and entered the car.

There was only one road in this rural area. It led to the city at one end, while the other end connected to denser forests and mountains.

If Yuchuan were to escape, he would surely choose to run into the dense forest.

Yunan's car was a jeep suited for driving in such remote places.

Ziyue had only traveled briefly when she noticed a fresh corpse by the road.

The person lay on the grass by the road. His blood flowed into the snow and stained it red. One could still see steam coming off him.

Ziyue resisted the urge to vomit and proceeded forward anxiously.

By now, she was no longer afraid of corpses. Instead, she feared the next corpse she encountered could be Muchen's.

The jeep did not travel far before she found Muchen and Yuchuan.

They stood on a large field by the road, surrounded by their fallen subordinates.

Ziyue opened the car door and left in time to see Yuchuan kick Muchen to the ground. He took Muchen's gun and tossed it away before saying gleefully, "You learned all your combat skills from the people I hired to teach you. Have you forgotten?"

Yuchuan looked like a cold-blooded demon to Ziyue. He would stop at nothing to fulfill his greed.

Worst, Yuchuan now pointed a gun at Muchen.

Blood pooled beneath Muchen's body.

Ziyue's face turned pale with fear. She shouted, "Grandpa, please let Muchen go! I'll do anything you want!"

It was then that she realized she could speak.

She had only taken a sip of the drink Yunan gave her. The effect must have faded away.

Yuchuan looked at her. His swollen face twisted into a gleeful smile. Then, he kicked Muchen and said, "Look, your darling is here. How are you going to fight me now?"

Muchen had brought many people with him, but he instructed most of them to stay in the house to protect Ziyue. Unfortunately, Yuchuan had more people, putting Muchen at a disadvantage.

All Muchen wanted was for Ziyue to be safe.

His heart plunged into terror when he heard her voice.

He had never felt so afraid in his life.

"Ziyue, why are you here? Go away! I don't need your help!" He shouted anything that came to mind, desperately trying to make Ziyue leave.

He knew Yuchuan would not show mercy to Ziyue.

"I'm serious, Grandpa. I'm the owner of LK Group. If you want, I can give it to you. I also brought a car here. You can use it to escape!" Ziyue walked toward them as she spoke.

Yuchuan's gaze turned solemn as if considering whether to accept her offer.

After a few seconds, he said to Ziyue, "Come here."

Ziyue walked to him without hesitation.

Muchen tried to stand up, only for Yuchuan to step on him. "You have better stay still!"

Yuchuan grabbed Ziyue and pointed the gun barrel at her temple when she came near.

He considered his options and felt Ziyue would be much more useful than Muchen in the present situation.

Ziyue was relieved. All she wanted was for Yuchuan to let Muchen go.

Unfortunately, things did not go as she wished.

Yuchuan gripped her neck and pointed the gun at Muchen. "Since you're useless to me, I might as well get rid of you."

Ziyue protested despite choking from his grip. "No! If you... kill him... I will never transfer LK Group to you... The authorities will hunt you down..."

This is Country Z. Who cares that Yuchuan is an aristocrat in Country J? He can't behave lawlessly in Country Z!

Yuchuan's expression darkened intimidatingly. However, he could not deny that Ziyue was right. They were in Country Z. Now that his identity had been exposed, it would be extremely difficult for him to obtain LK Group.

After pondering for a while, Yuchuan fired a shot at Muchen's leg before dragging Ziyue to the car. He pushed her into the driver's seat and demanded, "Drive."

Then, he sat in the front passenger seat and pointed the gun at her. "Don't play any tricks!"

"Grandpa, don't be so nervous. How can I play tricks?"

Ziyue sounded calm, but her hands shook slightly.

It was impossible not to feel afraid.

Yuchuan also noticed her trembling hands and pursed his lips before smiling mockingly.

He had always looked down on Ziyue and would not be surprised if she became cowardly at this moment and regretted her decision.

However, he turned away from her and realized the car was traveling toward the cliff's edge. His face blanched with shock, and he yelled, "Ziyue, what are you doing?" Ziyue's hand ceased to shake. She looked ahead resolutely. Her eyes glimmered like crystals and shone with ethereal beauty.

"You won't be able to bully Muchen ever again."

With that, the jeep plummeted down Wanzhang Cliff.

Yuchuan widened his eyes in terror and looked at Ziyue in disbelief. However, the car was rolling down the cliff. It was too late for him to say anything.

Ziyue's body tossed about as the jeep fell. However, she smiled and felt at peace.

Previously, she thought the Su family was the worst family one could have. Now, she realized Yuchuan was even worse.

Muchen thought she would hate him once she learned about Yuchuan's role in Su Yizhi's incident.

However, he was wrong.

She only felt concerned for Muchen.

He won't have to be troubled about this anymore.
