Provocation from the Strong [10]
The enormous Raging Seven Tail Dragon heavily smashed to the ground. Sima Gi Yan was dizzy, his eyes dimming because of the fall. Standing up, he promptly restrained the thunder rays from the dragonâs body to avoid injuring others.
When the Ice Luan Spirit Bird dived down to save Huang Bei Yue and saw that she was saved by Zhan Ye, it flapped its wings and took to the sky once again.
The panic didnât bring about any casualties. After the shock, the emperor immediately opened his mouth to ask: âSima qing*, you⌠are you alright?â
His tone still carried quite a bit of shock. No one wouldâve thought that Nan Yi Countryâs âUndefeated Generalâ, Sima Gui Yan, would unexpectedly lose so miserably.
Even people with spirit beasts had been beaten down from the sky to the ground.
Sima Gui Yan knelt on the ground, lowering his head, big beads of sweat drip down from his forehead. This was all forced out because of the immense pressure from the black gas.
âThis servant is fine.â Sima Gui Yan shook his head with disappointment. After quite a while did he raised his head. He faced the person in the black cloak on the back of Ice Luan Spirit Bird and said, âI lost.â
The person under the black cloak didnât say anything, faintly waved her hand without saying a word. Confidently and at ease, she urged the Ice Luan Spirit bird to leave.
âSir Xi TianâŚâ The emperor wanted to urge him to stay, but the speed of the Ice Luan Spirit bird was fast. He just started talking when that white as snow shadow was already gone.
The emperor couldnât help but be disappointed.
Huang Bei Yue secretly worried that Dong Ling had left so fast was because of the extreme cold from the Ice Luan Spirit Birdâs body harmed her.
This time, Zhan Ye saved her. Which was a big surprise to her. In her memories, Crown Prince Zhan Ye and Huang Bei Yue hardly had any close friendship.
She didnât know that Zhan Ye had did it subconsciously. Seeing that her thin and weak silhouette was on the verge of being hit by the falling Raging Seven Tail Dragon, he didnât even hesitate to summon the Purple Fire Unicorn in order to save her.
Maybe it was because she was the only child that his royal aunt had left in this world; that was what Zhan Ye had said to himself to justify his action.
But this action of his made many people in Xia Guang Hall raise their eyebrows in surprise.
Xiao Ling was so angry that she stomped her foot the moment it happened. She was right next to Huang Bei Yue; however, the crown prince only saved Huang Bei Yue. He didnât see her at all!
Xiao Yun also coldly humphed, her heart suddenly wished that the Raging Seven Tail Dragon had fallen down and smashed Huang Bei Yue to death.
Why would the Crown Prince only save that waste? Only the Crown Prince himself would know the answer to that question.
The Purple Fire Unicorn landed on the ground, Zhan Ye quietly whispered, âI apologize.â
After that, he wrapped one hand around her waist. While holding her, they both jumped down. Only when they stood steadily on the ground did he let her go.
A feeling of warmth flowed into her heart.
Huang Bei Yue understood in her heart, Crown Prince Zhan Ye thought that she didnât know martial arts and that her body was weak. Therefore, he immediately summoned the Purple Fire Unicorn to save her.
It doesnât matter if this action stemmed from family love because of Princess Zhang or if he just simply sympathized with her, in her heart, towards this cold and handsome youngster he scored a perfect hundred.
The youngest 9-star summoner in the Karte Continent, Nan Yi Countryâs respected Crown Prince. This youngsterâs strength, appearance, and his heart, she incomparably admired.
After he set Huang Bei Yue down, he walked towards the Emperor and Empress without saying a word. Staring at his back, the corners of her lips curved up into a little smile.
âThe Crown Prince only saved you because you were nearby, donât think too much into it!â Xiao Yun said with a sour taste in her mouth. A fool, no one would sacrifice their lives in vain.
