Chapter 63: The Pain in Her Heart

  Furthermore, Ling Meng's strength is too weak, and it's hard to distinguish the high-level realm of Tian Xuan. The words just now have indeed offended that mysterious expert. Even if the mysterious expert has a broad mind and doesn't care about it, it's still not a good thing. Such a strong person, once enraged, will inevitably have unimaginable consequences! Ye Gu Han understands the seriousness of the situation, so he naturally wants to make amends for Ling Meng.

  Of course, with Ye Guhan's temperament, if it weren't for Ling Meng, he would never have said these words even if he was grateful in his heart!

  The air was quiet and silent, as if that mysterious "Supreme God Zun Xuanfeng" had already left...

  Ye Guhan let out a long sigh, this outcome he had already anticipated. Such a transcendent being would hardly lower their status to accept the thanks of a mere junior like himself, a mere princess of a small country!

  "Uncle Ye? What's... what are you talking about?" Princess Ling Meng opened her eyes wide with curiosity.

  "Meng'er, your previous careless words have already greatly offended the person who saved you, the senior who cut down to save you. It's actually someone else! Moreover, this senior's cultivation is far above mine, no, it's completely impossible for us to be mentioned in the same breath!" Ye Guhan's expression was solemn: "That one knife, has already reached the pinnacle of humanity! How could it be something I can unleash?"

  "Ah?" Princess Ling Meng exclaimed in surprise, covering her small mouth with her slender jade hand: "Is this really the case? Uncle is already a top-notch master of Tian Xuan, and that senior, isn't he an even more extraordinary being!"

  "A thousand truths!" Ye Guhan nodded heavily in the cold night.

  Ling Meng Gongzhu calmed down, composed herself, and bowed deeply towards the sky: "Ling Meng thanks Senior for saving her. Previously, she had spoken rashly and offended Senior, but Senior magnanimously forgave Ling Meng's mistake. Not knowing if Senior will appear, Ling Meng wants to thank Senior in person for saving her life and apologize for her wrongdoing."

  The air is still quiet and there's no news at all.

  If it were truly a Tianxuan strongman or an even higher-level existence, would they be concerned with the gratitude of a mere princess? If it were truly a peak Tianxuan strongman, perhaps even the ruler of the Heavenly Fragrance Country wouldn't dare to show themselves. Ling Meng Princess wasn't unaware of this principle, but out of gratitude, she wanted to thank him regardless of whether he was still present or not. Since Uncle Ye said so, then this matter is absolutely true and beyond doubt.

  "What a pity, fate is just one-sided!" Ye Guhan sighed and his face returned to its usual cold and proud expression. He stood aloof, saying: "Xiao Meng'er, Uncle Ye will take his leave first. You should return to the palace early too. The Imperial City's guard troops are about to arrive."

  The sound of horseshoes was getting closer and closer, like thunder from afar.

  Ling Meng Gong Zhu looked at Ye Gu Han with an unwillingness to part, and asked: "Uncle Ye, when will you come visit Meng Er again?"

  Foolish girl, Uncle Ye has been by your side all along. Ye Guhan let out a deep sigh in his heart and said softly, "I'll come visit Little Meng'er. A killer escaped earlier, there might be more trouble later, so Little Meng'er needs to be careful for a while."

  Princess Ling Meng softly murmured in agreement, her expression showing a reluctance to part ways.

  The sound of hooves had already reached the street corner, and Ye Guhan's body suddenly rose up, swept out, and in mid-air, he suddenly changed direction and swept over from Jun Xie's side. With a sharp glance, he saw the small flying dagger lodged between the killer's throat and chin, which was lying on top of Jun Xie. He couldn't help but feel a wave of gratitude: it turned out that this senior had already taken care of this trouble for him, truly embarrassing to the extreme.

  The body unfolded, no longer staying, lightly floating up to the eaves, a blue light flashed, and suddenly disappeared.

  At the street corner, a fine horse rushed in quickly, and a young officer in blue uniform hurried over with an urgent look on his face. Seeing Princess Ling Meng standing there safely, he let out a sigh of relief and hastily saluted: "Your Highness, are you alright?" The concern in his words was evident.

  Ling Meng Gong Zhu looked at him with a hint of confusion, slightly bowed her head, picked up the two flying knives on the ground, and examined them carefully. The flying knives were thin as cicada wings, small and delicate, with subtle curves and beautiful lines. Ling Meng Gong Zhu was immediately taken with them. A faint flush of excitement appeared on her jade-like face: These were the divine weapons used by that master who even Lao Ye couldn't compare to.

  What a lovely knife!

  "This... dagger?" The young man asked hesitantly. "Such a deadly weapon, Your Highness should be careful with it."

  "If it weren't for this Flying Dagger senior, I would have already died at the hands of assassins! How could I still be waiting for you to come and rescue me now?" The existence of Ye Guhan couldn't be known by just anyone. Princess Ling Meng gave him a faint glance, her pretty face showing a hint of tiredness and subtle sadness.

  In the past, when leaving the palace, there would always be at least one high-ranking jade expert accompanying you, personally arranged by the Emperor himself. So why was he sent out on an errand this time? And several top-notch golden experts from the Imperial Guard were also withdrawn for some reason, and just as he came out, he encountered assassins! What does all this imply? It goes without saying!

  Princess Ling Meng was extremely intelligent and had already understood everything, but she tried her best to control herself not to think about it. She really didn't want to think about it, nor did she dare to think about it, because the consequences would be too heartbreaking for her! It was truly heart-wrenching, a pain that pierced through her very soul!

  You fight for your throne, that's fine, but why do you also see me as a tool for your struggle? Is the throne really so precious? Am I in your eyes just a pawn to be used to harm others and gain benefits for yourself? Although we are not born of the same mother, we are still children of the same father, and blood is thicker than water! Why? Why? Is it true that the imperial family has no regard for kinship?

  Feeling the two flying knives in her bosom touching her skin, emitting a chilly breath, but bringing immense warmth and security to Princess Ling Meng! This mysterious Tian Xuan master saved her life, yet she almost ignored his helping hand. As an invincible master, he didn't show any sign of condescension. Just this broad-mindedness made Princess Ling Meng admire him endlessly.

  Although Ye Gu Han knew that the mysterious person's strength was far from being limited to Tian Xuan cultivation, Ling Meng still didn't know. She only saw the elegant light of the azure sky.

  In the unseen and unheard, saving lives, drifting in and out, before and after, leaving no trace to be found, even more so not caring about others' gratitude! To the point of being completely indifferent to the ignorance of the person being saved!

  What a broad mind! This is the true nobleman! The heartbroken and disappointed Ling Meng Gong Zhu, towards this mysterious Tian Long who appeared and disappeared suddenly, at the most disheartened moment, developed a strong sense of dependence. In her heart, she suddenly felt that this mysterious person was just like Ye Shu Shu, equally worthy of her trust.

  The dagger in her bosom, Princess Ling Meng suddenly felt a surge of courage.

  Yes, whoever it is, having a Tianxuan Dingfeng-level master and a Tiangya Guxing Ye Guhan guardian is enough to make one feel at ease.

  Coming back to her senses, she found that the young man was still staring at her blankly. A hint of shyness and anger flashed across Princess Ling Meng's face as she glared at him with annoyance, feeling irritated in her heart.

  This son is the eldest son of the Murong family in the city, Murong Qianjun; He is also a new generation of outstanding young people from his mother's maternal family, the Murong family. If we talk about kinship, he can be considered as a cousin to Princess Lingmeng. In the capital, he is also a well-known young talent. After seeing Princess Lingmeng once, he was suddenly infatuated and couldn't sleep or eat; He begged his family to get him a position as the leader of the Imperial Guard, hoping to get close to Princess Lingmeng and start a crazy pursuit.

  Since Jun Mo Xie withdrew two months ago, Murong Qianjun has been one of the two most promising pursuers of Ling Meng Gongzhu. As for the other, it is Li You Ran, the eldest grandson of the Taishi Fu.
