“Master,” RuiEn was also alarmed. This powerful air belonged to someone of duke level or above.
XunMi waved her hand, a sudden energy quickly surrounded them, forming a simple barrier.
“To what do we owe the pleasure of this prince’s visit?” She could clearly feel the strength of the air pressuring down on her.
This was at the very minimum a pureblood prince, but it could also be the air of an elder that had been lying dormant for a long time.
RuiEn immediately felt the pressure release him. He was still a viscount, there was a large gap between him and such a high level prince.
Nangong Ci wasn’t very affected but she did sense the changing of the atmosphere around them. She didn’t remember any high profile person visiting here at this point in the plot. Could it be because of her transmigration?
“You are the Wild Rose Queen? You truly are the same as the rumors. Beautiful beyond compare, with a specialty in seducing men in order to suck their blood dry. Have you forgotten the vampire code of discipline? Today, I’m here to retract the vampire society’s gifts to you.” A blondhaired man appeared in a purple embroidered robe. His face seemed mild and gentle, yet his eyes depicted graveness.
XunMi thought this person should be someone who often smiled warmly. But due to the situation, he’s become stiff. Although he appears to be brimming with gravitas now, she wasn’t happy as it was directed at her.
What does he mean by a ‘specialty in seducing men’? Who was this even? Who does he think he is entering like this to show off his coolness? XunMi felt her temper rise.
“Your Majesty, my Master hasn’t done anything that you’ve accused her of. Please don’t dishonor her.” RuiEn impatiently protected his Master. Though he knew he couldn’t beat the opposition’s imposing manner, he still fearlessly stood forward.
Nangong Ci also puckered her lips. This man seemed very familiar. Blonde hair and dark eyes, he looked like a mixed race man and was pretty handsome.
He had a gentle air from head to toe, and was also a pureblooded prince. Could it really be who she thought it was? “Bad people would never admit that they’ve done bad things. There’s no need for more words, quickly release that girl.”
With a brush of his hand, You JiuXiao appeared inside XunMi’s barrier. He easily took Nangong Ci out, even holding out his other hand to block XunMi from taking her back.
XunMi genuinely didn’t have the desire to block him. From the moment that he moved, BaoBao had sounded. [A crucial character has been discovered! A crucial character has been discovered!]
Soon, she discovered that this was the male lead. According to the scientific laws governing Male and Female Leads, they would never harm each other. Even if their relationship is off and on in the middle, the end is always a Happy Ending.
Since it’s like this, why would she need to overexert herself and get involved.
But she really didn’t like his habit of suddenly throwing out ice arrows, she decided as she quickly dodged. However, her clothes were still stained by his shot.
As expected, a just recently upgraded Queen couldn’t compete with with the steady pureblood prince with over thousand years of experience. {T/N: this may be confusing but they are on the same rank technically. It’s just called nv wang (Queen) for XunMi and qin wang (Prince) for him}
Prince Jiu, your power is truly unmeasurable. I am ashamedly inferior in strength. But I will not admit to the circumstances Your Majesty has mentioned. Where did Your Majesty hear such information?” If she found out who has been making false claims about her, she’ll definitely tear them apart.
Did they think that she wouldn’t be able to promote in rank, or were they hoping to attack her while she was weak after upgrading? What grudge do they have against her?
You JiuXiao didn’t believe her. Before he came, numerous citizens, including ordinary humans, had already ran to him to complain. With such circumstances, how could he believe her side of the story.
After waking up from a few hundred years of hibernation, he woke to find that a controversial Wild Rose Queen had risen using her appearance. She’s broken the law and committed crimes. As a moral and just Prince, he cannot tolerate such behavior.
“Show me proof.” But You JiuXiao wasn’t dictatorial, he’ll make sure to be fair.
XunMi sighed. Proof? Where would she possibly go to find proof?
“Since you can’t show any evidence, then accept the punishment” He pointed his hand forward as he spoke, not giving XunMi any time to quibble.
XunMi was about to swear. Sir, you can’t play like this!
She hadn’t had the time to prepare herself yet, only able to block and dodge his attacks.
Nangong Ci stared stupefied at the two people that had started a fight out of nowhere. “S-Stop! That, you, Prince Jiu! Mi clearly didn’t do anything so despicable before!”
Mi had contributed so much for the vampire clans before, yet she was being harmed by others still! It serves the vampire clan right that they were exterminated, but it was a shame that Mi was implicated in the process. No, she must change the original ending.
Under the repeated attacks of a highranking, formidable vampire, XunMi was left spitting blood on the floor.
Although they were both the ranking of king, the difference between them was still obvious.
RuiEn had already been left pale and unconscious on the floor.
XunMi’s stomach turned again and again. Enduring the burning sensation coming from her skin, she quickly murmured an incantation causing her to disappear from sight.
You JiuXiao was shocked. Didn’t this Wild Rose Queen just advance in rank, shouldn’t her powers be unstable right now? Yet, she was still able to escape under his watch.
He was still confused: why did this human being that had been her prey speak up for her?
Nangong Ci blankly stared as her female Goddess figure spit out blood and escaped. Suddenly her face was filled with resentment, causing her to not even try to preserve her aloof image as the Nangong Young Miss.
“You JiuXiao, you bastard! Do you know how much Mi has done for the vampire clan! Why do all of you always bully her? Is it her fault that she looks so beautiful? All these men covet her, if she didn’t gain strength to protect herself, she would have been, would have…” She couldn’t speak anymore. As soon as she thought of Mi’s final outcome, she felt that she was so pitiful.
She knew her temper was sudden, but she could only use this method to hide the panic she was feeling upon transmigrating into a book. Perhaps it’s because Mi had show her kindness from the start, so now she couldn’t bear to see Mi hurt.
“Why do you men all treat her like this? She’s so great.” Nangong Ci wasn’t able to hold back her tears. She didn’t know if she was crying for Mi or herself. She only knew that she felt very sorrowful, an unprecedented level of sorrow.
The hand that You JiuXiao had extended forward froze in place. Had he been wrong? Looking at the girl crying in front of him, he was at a loss.
“Stop crying, if something’s wrong you can tell me.” You JiuXiao clumsily hugged the girl to his chest and lightly consoled.
Nangong Ci immediately collapsed and began continuously hitting his chest. “I just got here. Mi has only been gentle and kind to me, even willing to give me shelter. But you’ve injured Mi. Now she’s hurt, what if a bad guy sees her? Do you know how many people are trying to catch and lock her up?”
Unfortunately, Nangong Ci really was on the mark with that statement.
