Chapter 41: Life and Death Struggle!
"Ah, I really didn't expect it, your fiancée is actually her!" Nangong Yan's sidekick, Yun Qingchen, wore a white robe that fluttered in the wind, and gently shook his feather fan, expressing admiration with a hint of schadenfreude, "This is indeed a beauty among beauties, Yan, you really have poor eyesight"
"Shut up for me," Nan Gong Ye flicked his sleeve and hummed softly. Yun Qingchen's words were like pouring oil on fire.
It seemed that in order to save face, Nangong Ye turned his gaze towards Ling Wusuo and took the initiative to speak: "Ling Wusuo, it was actually you who injured Mei'er's servant. Hurry up and apologize, and this matter will be considered settled."
Forget it, is there anything so cheap? She Li Mei'er, can be dismissed so easily?
"Is an apology enough?" Li Mei'er walked to Nan Gong Ye's side, letting out a series of giggles. "Your Highness, Seventh Prince, you must be fair and not show favoritism just because she is your fiancée. I want her to kowtow and apologize to me!"
"Nangong Ye......" The red lips opened lightly and spoke slowly, as Ling Wushuang stepped forward.
Upon hearing the woman's gentle murmurs, Nan Gong Ye's face relaxed slightly, his eyes flashing with a hint of warmth, yet he remained standing beside Li Mei Er, his lips set in a firm line, intent on teaching her a lesson - who let this woman treat him like a fool!
Ji Yun's eyebrows twitched with a flash of worry and anger. That despicable Nan Gong Ye, he went too far! What right did he have to make decisions on behalf of Wu Shuang? It was as if Wu Shuang were his person or something! However, everyone in Dong Lin knew that Wu Shuang had a crush on the Seventh Prince. But his intuition told him that things weren't that simple; otherwise, how could one explain what happened at Lu Ri Forest?
"Nangong Ye, who do you think you are?!" But before he could react, Ling Wushuang's voice suddenly dropped, unusually cold and detached, like a faintly chilly breeze blowing by, "Who do you think you are?!"
"What...what?" Nan Gong Ye's mouth opened in surprise, disbelieving, and he raised his eyes to meet the woman's sharp and clear gaze, stunned. What did she say? Did he hear it wrong?
"High and mighty Seventh Prince?" Ling Wu Xuan's lips curled into a light smile, her hands clasped together in front of her chest, her eyes gleaming with a hint of mockery. Her voice was soft and gentle, "In my eyes, you're just a useless second-generation master, nothing more. Take away that layer of skin, what are you? Keep nagging and this young lady will beat you up along with him!"
"Ling Wushuang!" Infuriated and humiliated, Nan Gong Ye's face turned red with rage, he fiercely swung his sleeve and shouted, "How dare you! You don't know what you're talking about!"
No, this is all wrong, she shouldn't be reacting like this.
Ling Wushuang's words left the people around her stunned. Didn't they say that Miss Ling was so in love with the Seventh Prince that she couldn't live without him? What's going on now? This woman who claimed to beat up even the prince, is this really Ling Wushuang? However, as soon as everyone thought about it, even the princess and noblewoman were beaten by her, what can't this woman do?!
Ji Yunyang smiled secretly on one side, he said so, this is what Wú Shuāng would say.
The group of rich young men around Nan Gong Ye all had their eyes wide with incredulity, revealing an expression of utter bewilderment. Ling Wu Shuang was most familiar with how Nan Gong Ye used to pester and cling to him, even if it wasn't over a thousand times, there were at least several hundred instances, so why did he suddenly change his behavior now?
"I'm perfectly aware of what I'm saying, it's you who hasn't figured out the situation yet." Ling Wushuang sneered and said word by word: "Nangong Yan, listen up, it's me, Ling Wushuang, not you."
Li Mei's charming eyes fluttered, and the tears at the corner of her eyes sparkled with a bewitching allure. She deliberately leaned her body towards Nan Gongyan, smiling coyly: "Your Highness, this woman doesn't seem to understand your feelings."
"Alright, very well." Nangong Ye's lips twitched violently as he wrapped his arm around Li Mei'er's exceptionally soft waist, making the man furious. "You don't even care about this concubine position? I'm delighted to the extreme!"
As they spoke, Nan Gong Ye's eyes were fixed on Ling Wu Shuang's clear and beautiful face, not moving an inch. He wanted to see how long this woman could pretend to be strong!
"In that case, you can take your time to discuss. Ling Wu's eyebrows slightly raised, her pure white long sleeves gently stroking, she turned around and left, her simple and neat ponytail drawing a beautiful arc in the air, leaving behind a sentence, 'You two can enjoy yourselves, I won't disturb you'".
She didn't have that much time to waste on these boring people, and she had no idea what was going on with the Ling family now, whether Grandfather had really made a smooth breakthrough or not. Ling Wushuang's heart was filled with worry.
"Stop right there!" Li Mei'er shouted loudly. She had originally wanted to take advantage of Nan Gong Ye's anger to scold this woman, but she actually turned around and left, as if she really didn't care!
"Ling Wushuang..." Nan Gong Ye's face turned even more unsightly, directly turning green, his voice almost gnashing his teeth.
Before, if Ling Wushuang saw another woman approaching him, he would have gone mad. But now, she's actually so nonchalant? No way, this woman must be pretending! Right, she must be intentionally showing off to get his attention. Don't all women like playing hard to get? It's just unexpected that Ling Wushuang has also become clever. Thinking of this, Nan Gongyan's expression slightly improved.
Li Mei'er stepped forward a few steps and shouted in a state of urgency: "Ling Wusuo, I challenge you in the name of the Holy Master! To the death!"
The people of the four nations of the Star Continent all believe in the Sacred Temple, and the status of the Holy Master is naturally supreme. If an oath or challenge is made in the name of the Holy Master, it is the most formal.
"Undying, unrelenting" Li Mei'er slowly walked up to Ling Wusuo, her bright red lips curled into a ruthless arc.
The disciples of Tiān Yè didn't dare to make a move against the Hù Guó Fǔ, but if they died in a trial by combat, even if it was Tiān Yè's fault, what could be done about it? Could others be blamed for one's own disciple being incompetent? Why did she only think of this now?!
"A fight to the death, this is going to cost someone their life!" The people around them heard this and sighed in shock, also lamenting that Li Mei was too shameless. As a senior student, she actually issued a challenge to Ling Wusuo, who had just entered the academy!
"Mei'er..." Nangong Yan's eyebrows moved slightly, seeming to want to speak but hesitating, his expression very disapproving.
"Li Mei'er, don't be too arrogant." Ji Yun's face suddenly darkened, and the handsome face revealed a murderous intent. "A fight to the death? Good, I accept your challenge. I'd like to see what kind of skills you have, being so reckless."
"Ji Yunyang, I remember that the Ji and Ling families didn't have a good relationship. Why do you need to defend this woman?" Li Meier's tone was unpleasant, as if she also realized it wasn't quite right. Her delicate face twisted slightly, but the words had already been spoken, like spilled water that couldn't be taken back.
Li Mei'er directly ignored the surrounding gaze, her eyes fixed on Ling Wushuang, and said stiffly: "Ling Wushuang, do you dare to accept?"
Can't be bothered with so much anymore, she just wants Ling Wushuang dead!
"Are you looking for a fight to the death?" A soft and gentle voice, like the sound of flowers blooming, Ling Wu's footsteps paused lightly, her fingertips pinched her chin, her exquisite and beautiful face floated with a radiant smile. Ji Yunyang felt a chill run down his spine, but then she calmly spat out two words, "Not interested."
