Third Prince's cold smile appeared in the air. Third Prince had never revealed such a rich expression to anyone before. He ruminated over Mu Xueshi's words, and in the end, as if guessing something, he said, "You want to rely on Second Prince?"

Mu Xueshi couldn't tell the danger in Third Prince's tone and kept rebutting, "Third Prince, please don't think so much of everyone. I only reported it out of my own conscience. I don't know what your people are thinking, but it's a trivial matter for us. "Not to mention taking a child's life, I wouldn't hesitate to inform even if I were to find someone to teach him a lesson …"

Third Prince clenched the book tightly, and Mu Xueshi could clearly hear the sound of the book being crushed by Third Prince. He started to regret how hard he had spoken. Third Prince was such a prideful person, he should have given him some face.

Third Prince continued to stare at Mu Xueshi without letting go. He then walked up and forcibly tore off the layer of silver wire covering Mu Xueshi. Mu Xueshi felt that his face was about to be torn off as well, so he subconsciously touched his face, revealing a pained expression.

"Take this face and accept all the punishments!"

Third Prince's emotionless words immediately sent Mu Xueshi's heart into the ice cellar. Mu Xueshi was dragged into the torture chamber by Third Prince like a dog. There were countless malevolent torture devices here, and every one of them could not help but quiver when Mu Xueshi thought about how to use them.

Mu Xueshi still refused to give up. At this moment, only he and Third Prince were left. He had to use every possible moment to convince Third Prince to forgive himself. Unexpectedly, before he could open his mouth, Third Prince had already read out all of Mu Xueshi's crimes.

Lying, disobeying the rules, secretly searching for something, betraying his master, informing others …

Just speaking and disobeying these two punishments had taken half of Mu Xueshi's life. Mu Xueshi watched with trembling eyes as Third Prince played with three to four balls the size of eyeballs in his hands before walking towards Mu Xueshi.

"Take it!" Third Prince ordered as he handed one of the grey balls to Mu Xueshi.

"Third Prince, I really don't have the intention that you think I have. I don't want to hurt you. I just feel pity for Su Ying. He is just a child! If someone wants to harm Third Prince, I will do everything I can to inform you! "

Third Prince was indifferent at first, but when he heard the last sentence, his heart felt like it was hit lightly. He paused, then looked at Mu Xueshi with a mocking expression, disdainful of his efforts to curry favor with him in order to survive.

When Mu Xueshi saw Third Prince's expression, he actually felt sad. He initially said that he was lying to Third Prince, but now that he saw Third Prince's reaction, he suddenly felt that his good intentions were misunderstood by someone else. He felt an unspeakable sense of loss.

Smiling bitterly, Mu Xueshi obediently took the ball that Third Prince gave him. The ball was tasteless, but it felt a little astringent in his mouth. Mu Xueshi instinctively felt that this was extremely toxic, so he put the ball under his tongue and did not move, much less swallow it. At this moment, he realized that this ball was not only a ball, but also had a translucent silk thread on it. The other end of the silk thread was in Third Prince's hand.

"What is this?" Mu Xueshi asked with trembling lips.

Third Prince looked at the innocent and curious expression on Mu Xueshi's beautiful face. Suddenly, he wanted to give a proper explanation.

"This is a pellet, it's very interesting. I'll start the fire from this end and when the thread burns to the end, the pellet in your mouth will explode. But it won't kill you, it will only make your mouth quieter."
