Leng Changxi and Qin Yunuan remained still. The Prince Regent opened the curtain for a slip, as if he was making a gesture, or that he was testing them.
Leng Changxi slightly bowed, sort of saluting to the Prince Regent.
"Mister Tuoba is such a busy man." Prince Regent said as he dismounted the carriage along the wooden stairs. Looking closer, he seemed decent and well-educated, unlike the naturally aggressive North Di people. The Prince Regent approached with a kind smile on his face, "However, I have come to invite you in person. I'm just planning to have a short gathering with you at the restaurant, please don't reject me." After saying that, the Prince Regent politely turned to Qin Yunuan and said, "It would be best if Mrs. Tuoba could join us as well."
The Prince Regent had come in person. Leng Changxi was afraid that he would get into trouble if he rejected this. While he remained silent, the Prince Regent had ordered his men to bring ano
The spear was as fast as a meteor with such momentum that made it look like a rainbow. Leng Changxi turned over and leaped into the air, hands grabbing downwards. The momentum of the spear made him take a step back, but it didn't stop him from standing still. With the spear in hand, Leng Changxi wouldn't accept the result as he turned the spear and threw it towards Wanyan Su, Fourth Prince. The spear had ripped into the pillar with its entire sharp, which was a fist away from Wanyan Su.Wanyan Su looked solemn. Droplets of sweat all over his body seemed to curdle at once, "Are you aware of the situation you're facing now?"Despite knowing the answer, Leng Changxi asked, "What kind of situation?"Wanyan Su threw his bracer hard onto the ground and turned his head to the other side, "I've only heard that when Grand Khan came back yesterday, he had a nightmare that the crown prince of North Di would be killed by an ugly monster. Now all the offici
The violent reaction of warrior No.3 aroused even stronger curiosity in the surrounding seats. The youngest princess of North Di, the Ninth Princess, ran over immediately and wanted to take a closer look. She then started crying after only a look at it. A twelve-year-old child only said things as she wanted, "This is an ugly monster. It looks too disgusting and terrible. Father, kill him soon."How could that be? In addition to the courage of the warrior Zhigu, his handsome and mature appearance was also admired by many women. How could he be as unbearable as the Ninth Princess said?Zhigu lowered his head, his braids with intricate patterns hanging beside his cheeks, covering his face. A deeper red stain slowly oozed from the ring. It was blood dripping from Zhigu’s face. The thick bloody water carried an indescribable stench, which was similar to the smell of a corpse that could make people around fainted if they step closer. The one who suffered most was
It was a lovely day with a blue sky. It seemed that nothing had been influenced by the dramatic martial art contests held in the capital of North Di the other day.In a classical courtyard in the capital, the overhang eaves with style in Central Plains were built by gray tiles, which had the characteristics of regions south of the River. Under the eaves, a young lady was speaking with fervor and assurance."Now news from the Royal Palace shows that the Grand Khan of North Di had been dissatisfied with the excess Grand Prince’s aids and staff. He ordered that Grand Prince should dismiss his aids and staff in his mansion with half a year. In consequence, grumpy Grand Prince got out of control for the first time, which made Grand Khan more disgruntled. Now the Grand Khan had ordered the Grand Prince should be under house arrest and could not leave the mansion of Grand Prince for three months. Now it is the best time for us."Opposite Qin Yunuan, t
Three months after the stone tablet with characters of ancient Qidan was found, the Fourth Prince Wanyan Su set off with his mighty troops. The leading troop was cavalries which had gone through tough training. The troop was awarded by the Grand Khan of North Di. Wanyan Su arranged this troop at the forefront, which was not only very imposing but also useful for the removal of mines when crucially necessary."The removal of mines means that if there were some dangers, the troop would be the first to die, which could warn the troop behind." Leng Changxi explained the term carefully to Qin Yunuan. Wanyan Su had arranged a very comfortable horse carriage for the two respected guests, Qin Yunuan and Leng Changxi, but Qin Yunuan refused. She felt so eye-catching for a woman with white gauze covering her eyes to ride a horse in the street.Qin Yunuan ignored the horse carriage and listened carefully to Leng Changxi's description of the troop."There
Wanyan Su was a bit surprised. Then he heard Leng Changxi saying indifferently, "Even kings can never have long hands. Fourth Prince, if you wish to be held by the informers of the Royal Court for the rest of your life, you can give them mercy. But what you have to know is that, in the end, when we find what we want, these people must also be dealt with. Rather than being unrighteous at that moment, it is best to find an excuse and kill them now."Wanyan Su gritted his teeth and immediately ordered the soldier beheaded. This soldier had offended the concubine of the Fourth Prince. No one would have said anything for him even if he was cut a thousand times.The village in the distance was sparkling in the dark. Everyone had different expressions. Yasu, who was assaulted by the soldiers and frightened, nestled in Wanyan Su’s arms like a little rabbit. Wanyan Su was comforting Yasu softly. Look in his eyes, and you would be aware that they were deeply in love.
"Alright." Leng Changxi was about to chop the mad soldier with his hand as hard as an iron blade, but the young man who led the way suddenly grabbed Leng Changxi's wrist, "Our savior, he is a life after all. How could you decide arbitrarily?"A glimmer of luck flashed in the eyes of the mad soldier, and Leng Changxi glanced at the young man, "There is always one going to die today. If you can't bear his death, then you get to be dead.""How can you think in this way?" The young man frowned, "No matter how strong your skill of martial arts is, you can't kill innocent people indiscriminately."Leng Changxi sneered. "Even though you have good intentions in your heart, you can't demand a life for a life. And who said that he was innocent? Little brother, we have been disturbing in the village for a long time. This soldier belonged to us. Let us take him back. As for the inconvenience of your village, Your Highness will naturally give you an explana
Maomu covered his eyes painfully. He went to great lengths in order not to make any noise. This was because he knew that if anybody else in the village was disturbed, something worse would happen to him. He had been here once, so he knew only too well how terrifying this village was. While the villagers appeared to be some skinny men and old women, they were all good at either poisoning or martial arts, like the young man who had tried hard to stop Leng Changxi from attacking with his arm next to the well."You have overrated your ability," Leng Changxi said to Maomu viciously. He would have killed Maomu because he acted against orders and killed such an important mole, were it not for his remaining value.Maomu pushed Leng Changxi lightly and then gently stroked Qin Yunuan's feet, "Help me! Please help me! Madam Tuoba, I know that you've learned some leechcraft before. Help me." Qin Yunuan raised her head. Since Sun Miaoyang had been in her courtyard for s
Two hours. Hearing that, Leng Changxi frowned a little. It implied that someone had started off at least two hours earlier than they did. Who indeed was following them so closely?No. He was not following them. The man was walking even ahead of them.In front of the snake cave, there was still residential heat on the faggots which hadn't been burned out yet. The grass and wood beside it were cleared, which obviously was done when the man was resting. The cave was dark inside. Cha was not seen anywhere. The soldier kidnapped by the huge python was very likely to have little chance of surviving.Wanyan Su ordered the soldiers to tie the torches. In the wild, fire and water were both of great importance. This time, however, he asked people to take out a dozen torches at one time. He also seemed to feel worried about the man showing up in Yeren Valley without reason.The torches were set to fire one after another. The smoke rose up slowly. Wanyan Su
