Chapter Thirty-One: Enemies Meet Again

  "Even dared to block the carriage of Princess Snow, quite bold indeed"

  The speaker's voice carried a deep, dark energy that seemed to intimidate, causing the people around him to involuntarily take a few steps back, their faces pale and their eyes flashing with anger. But Ling Wusuo and Ji Yunyang stood calmly on the path, their lips curled into a playful smile, not a single hair out of place.

  "I'd like to see who it is"

  A steady and powerful voice, yet with a hint of eerie sharpness, making one's back hair stand on end. Before the words had even fallen, two middle-aged men emerged from the rear of the formation, their faces ashen, with an unnatural pallor, their footsteps slow, their entire bodies shrouded in a deep yellow aura that churned and surged.

  Upon seeing the arrivals, everyone gasped in unison and exclaimed in surprise: "It's Wei Jing and Tie Nan! One is an eighth-rank Tianxuan master, the other a seventh-rank Tianxuan master. They are top-notch experts from Donglin, ranking among the best. And aren't they also the bodyguards of Concubine Jiang? How can they possibly be here?"

  "This is going to end badly, those two are done for!"

  Some people snorted softly and disdainfully said: "What's the big deal about being a high-ranking Tianxuan, aren't they just two eunuchs, what are they showing off?"

  "Just watch, this kind of person who relies on their connections will eventually be taken down"

  "Are you blocking the princess's carriage?" Wei Jing's voice was slightly shrill and suddenly rose, making it even more piercing.

  Ji Yun raised her thick black eyebrows, her long boots lightly tapping the ground as she smiled and said: "The road to heaven is wide, each of us will take half of it. I'll stand wherever I want, and you're not worthy of controlling this young master?"

  Wei Jin's arrogance got on his nerves.

  "Wait a minute..." Tienan drew out his voice, slow and deliberate, suddenly raising his hand to stop Wei Jing. Then, he raised an eyebrow to size up the person in front of him, his gaze lingering for a moment on Jiyunyang's forehead protector. His pale, thick lips pursed slightly before he spoke: "May I ask, is this the young master of the Ji family?"

  "It's exactly" Ji Yunyang hooked her lips with a cold smile, her chin slightly raised, as if to say that she would not change her name or surname even if she sat down, so what can you do to me?

  "It turned out to be Ji Yunyang!"

  "So it was him, the genius young master of the Ji family"

  A murmur of surprise and disapproval immediately spread around, no wonder he was so bold. Not to mention the status of the Ji family as the second largest family in the east, let alone the sacred hall behind Ji Yunyang, which even the imperial family did not dare to underestimate.

  Tie Nan and Wei Jing locked eyes, their gazes slightly dimmed.

  After a moment, Wei Jing's face twisted slightly, and he hummed angrily twice. With a fierce flick of his sleeve, he sneered: "I've long admired your great name, but I didn't expect you to be the young master of the Ji family. However, it's better for young people to keep a low profile. You should know that geniuses are often short-lived!"

  In the end, the tone was harsh and severe.

  "As expected, you're a young master of the Ji family. I've long admired you. Today, we won't bother to make an issue of it, so hurry up and leave." Tie Nan's face also turned cold, "Otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite. The imperial family's dignity doesn't tolerate provocation!"

  "This young master has long admired the names of the two seniors, and today I finally see you, indeed it's not an ordinary response. I didn't expect that at such a high age, you can still break through the seventh rank of Tianxuan in one move. I really admire you." Ji Yunyang had a smile all over his face, but the words he said made people feel strange, "I don't know what secrets and insights the two seniors have, is it just relying on seniority?"

  Wei Jing and Tie Nan listened to the front, feeling comfortable in their hearts, but as soon as they heard a certain age, their faces suddenly sank. The people next to them couldn't help but laugh out loud. This young master of the Ji family was indeed not someone who could be bullied at will.

  "Do you want to know their secret?" At this time, Ling Wushuang glanced at Ji Yunyang, with a mysterious smile at the corner of his mouth, and slowly opened his mouth.

  "What?" Ji Yunyang smiled slightly, but his intuition told him it was better not to know.

  "This is heaven, after all, it's always fair, isn't it?" Ling Wusuo raised the corner of his mouth and smiled, his eyes sparkling with a hint of mischief as he glanced at Wei Jitian and Tie Nian. "It took something away from you, so it must give you something else in return."

  "Cough—" Ji Yunyang almost choked on his own saliva, then smiled wryly and hastily waved his hand: "Such a secret, this young master can't bear to accept, I'm afraid only the two of you seniors can appreciate it."

  It's better not to listen, Wudang is really damaging, this means that these two are eunuchs, they don't have that thing, so their cultivation will be faster, however, such a secret method, I'm afraid no one dares to try!

  Hahaha

  "It turns out that the two seniors cultivated quickly, and there was also this reason"

  "Haha, you want to imitate too?"

  Many people around them suddenly understood and couldn't help but burst out laughing. They thought that the young master's words were already hurtful enough, but unexpectedly, the stunning woman next to him was the one with the sharpest tongue, scolding without even using a single profanity!

  "You, you!" Ling Wu's casual remark had struck a sore spot for the two of them, enraging them to the point where they were trembling with anger.

  "Yun Yang Gege, it's really you!" The two men's faces turned pale with anger, just as they were about to take action and teach him a lesson, when suddenly a woman's scream came from behind them.

  How hateful! They'll deal with that stinky girl later. The two of them had twisted faces, secretly cursing under their breaths, but they couldn't help but suppress the anger in their hearts. Turning around to see the arriving person, they immediately showed a respectful expression and said: "Greetings to Your Highness, Princess."

  A beautiful woman got off the carriage, wearing a large red peony cloud brocade dress, with purple silk tassels and gold hairpins on her head, her face as lovely as a peach blossom, her charming eyes like silk, taking slow steps, swaying her waist and waving her hand, naturally charming, glancing faintly at the crowd below, haughty, disdainful, and scornful.

  The woman in yellow beside her was also exceptionally beautiful, wearing a brocade dress with golden threads hanging down to the ground.

  Ji Yun's eyes flashed with a hint of disgust, and it was that ruthless and overbearing princess again. Last time in the Forest of Sunset, Nangong Xue had secretly plotted against him and Wuduan, he still remembered it clearly.

  However, this guy obviously automatically ignored what happened later, that someone made Nan Gong Xue and others cry bitterly.

  "Yun Yang brother, are you also coming to Canaan Academy to study?" Nangong Xue was extremely excited, and walked a few steps forward to Ji Yunyang, saying: "It's really great, Xue'er is too, this way we can see each other often in the future."

  "Eight Princess..." Ji Yun furrowed her brow, but before she could finish speaking, a shrill cry pierced the air, "How is it you again!"

  Nangong Xue stared at Ling Wusuo with a fierce gaze, her eyes blazing with anger, her old grudges and new hatreds boiling over, her teeth clenched in rage.

  What's going on, this woman is standing with Yun Yang again, despicable woman! Later she found out that the last time in Lu Ri Forest, it was actually this woman who got them attacked by the Xuan Beast Tide. And also, she herself provoked a poisonous dragon, and finally almost got eaten by it!

  Ling Wushuang clasped her hands together in front of her chest, innocently raising an eyebrow, "Isn't it me?"

  For some reason, compared to Nangong Xue's fiery and explosive roar, when the crowd heard Ling Wusuo's calm and gentle words, they felt an inexplicable jump in their hearts.
