Chapter 848: Chapter 341: Fugitive Lovebirds
"Your Highness the Princess, long ti no see. By the look of you, life seems to be treating you quite well," Lady Chi Bi said, eyeing Donghuang Lingling and Gu Feng with jealousy.
Even though Gu Feng wasn’t particularly handso and was just a commoner, his affection towards Donghuang Lingling made Lady Chi Bi envious.
If only Dugu Xiu could treat her the sa way, she would gladly give up ten years of her life.
Gu Feng never expected that he and Donghuang Lingling would be found so quickly, and within the territory of Great Zhou no less.
Dugu Xiu had the audacity to directly bring his guards and barge into Great Zhou.
"Dugu Xiu, what do you want? Lingling doesn’t wish to marry you at all," Gu Feng shielded Lingling behind him and drew out his Magic Wand.
Since the day he fled from the Eastern Capital, he had already vowed that no matter what happened in the future, he would protect Lingling.
Even if it cost him his own life.
"You go by the na Gu Feng, a Sky Level Light Mage, apprenticed to Sunrise Tutor from the Mainland Magic Elite Camp. You’re from Dao Ye Village, with parents and a pair of younger siblings at ho."
"You! What do you want? You have no right to harm my family. This is the territory of Great Zhou, you have no right to harm the people of Great Zhou," Gu Feng’s body trembled with rage, and his Magic Wand trembled along with it.
No one knew better than Gu Feng about Dugu Xiu’s despicable and cold-blooded nature. He would do anything to achieve his goals.
"Hahaha, Gu Feng, speaking of kingship, do you know the woman behind you is the Crown Princess Consort of I, the Crown Prince? The woman whom I openly declared to the world that I would marry. You secretly took the man away, giving
the biggest green hat. Tell , if the Emperor Zhou knew about this, would he still help his ’subjects’?"
"You’re falsely accusing us. Lingling and I are completely innocent of such things," Gu Feng couldn’t stand to see the woman he cherished being so humiliated by Dugu Xiu.
"Innocent? A single man and woman living together for months, who would believe the princess is still pure?" Dugu Xiu’s gaze was cold, staring at Gu Feng and Donghuang Lingling.
Behind Gu Feng, Donghuang Lingling shivered in fear.
She didn’t know who these people intruding the dical hall were, but she really disliked the pair in front of her.
Especially that man, the way he looked at her was as if she were sothing filthy.
Feeling Donghuang Lingling trembling behind him, Gu Feng was both heartbroken and furious, yet powerless.
There indeed was a marriage contract between Donghuang Lingling and Dugu Xiu.
If this matter were to be announced, Gu Feng’s life would be a small price, but Lingling’s reputation would be completely ruined.
She was a princess of the Eastern Capital. If this marriage fell through, what awaited the Eastern Capital might be a war between the two countries.
Realizing that his impulsive actions could bring disaster to the Eastern Capital, Gu Feng’s heart ached.
"What do you want in order to let Lingling go," Gu Feng asked painstakingly.
He understood that even if Dugu Xiu hadn’t brought this many people, with just Dugu Xiu alone, given his Emperor Stage cultivation, Gu Feng had no chance of escaping with Donghuang Lingling.
"Let her go? Gu Feng, do you think I am willing to take a pair of worn shoes back? As long as she is a princess of the Eastern Capital, she has to be my Crown Princess Consort. What I want is her title, as for her as a person, I can find a much better woman anyti," Dugu Xiu’s words enraged Gu Feng.
He lunged forward, intending to fight Dugu Xiu to the death.
"Don’t insult Lingling," Before Gu Feng could advance, several guards pinned him down.
"Don’t hurt him, leave him alone, you bad people, all of you go away," Donghuang Lingling felt a pang seeing Gu Feng being beaten, she threw the dicine jar in her hand, trying to stop those people from beating him.
Lady Chi Bi grabbed Donghuang Lingling’s wrist, examining her, "Oh my, kid, your dical skills are impressive, being able to save soone whose Magic Soul was devoured by my soul snake."
"So what if you saved him, I would still be willing to take a fool ho," Dugu Xiu remarked disinterestedly.
He looked at Gu Feng, who was still resisting, and smirked disdainfully.
Donghuang Lingling stood aside, eyes brimming with tears as she looked at Gu Feng.
Their appearance was that of a tragic parting, provoking Dugu Xiu’s displeasure.
Though he held no interest in Donghuang Lingling, she was at least his Crown Princess Consort.
If Donghuang Lingling had eloped with soone like Ye Beiming, Dugu Xiu might have grudgingly accepted it.
But running away with soone like Gu Feng, who lacked status, power, and only had passable looks, left Dugu Xiu feeling annoyed.
The opponent was rely a Light Mage unable to cast attack magic.
Dealing with soone like him, Dugu Xiu wasn’t willing to waste much effort.
Seeing the unyielding look in Gu Feng’s eyes, Dugu Xiu couldn’t help but feel a little mischievous. He had been in a bad mood since returning from Taiyuan Mountain and figured he could vent his frustration on Gu Feng.
"Release him," Dugu Xiu waved a hand.
The guards quickly let go of Gu Feng.
"Gu Feng, I know you’re unwilling, so be it, I’ll give you a chance. If you can withstand ten punches from , I’ll let Donghuang Lingling go," Upon hearing Dugu Xiu’s words, hope reignited in Gu Feng’s eyes, which had been filled with despair.
"No," Donghuang Lingling shook her head vigorously from the side.
She subconsciously knew that the man like a Wolf King wasn’t soone to be trifled with.
Gu Feng would die.
"Ten punches, just ten punches? Do you an it?" Gu Feng mumbled.
He was not good at much else, but taking hits was sothing he had so confidence in enduring ten punches.
"I, the Crown Prince, would not stoop to lying to a little boy like you," Dugu Xiu put forward the condition, initially only wanting to force Gu Feng to beg, for now he was no longer who he used to be.
Having integrated part of the War God Spear’s power, the strength of Dugu Xiu’s left arm was such that, not even a strong Martial Emperor would withstand it.
Who would have thought that this silly kid Gu Feng would actually agree to it.
Dugu Xiu was genuinely curious as to how Gu Feng planned to survive ten punches from him.
"It’s a deal," Gu Feng nodded at Donghuang Lingling, clutching his Magic Wand tightly.
This Magic Wand was crafted by Yun Sheng many years ago.
It had been modified several tis, and Yun Sheng had infused a significant amount of Purple Gold into it at the end, greatly enhancing its power.
Over the years, Gu Feng kept it by his side; to him, this Magic Wand symbolized the countless days he had faced with Yun Sheng and Qi.
He was no longer alone; he had Yun Sheng, Qi, and Lingling with him.
Ten punches were just ten punches; with the help of the Bright Celestial Sphere, he believed he could endure them.
