Chapter 407 - His Deep Affection



Chapter 407: His Deep Affection

The faint halo slowly stopped emitting from Huangfu Qingjue. Once Ren Youran was free of its effects, he actually felt much joy and gratitude as if he had gotten a new life.

“Let’s go!” announced Ren Youran to his men decisively after a deep breath. He knew that he was absolutely no match for Huangfu Qingjue. If he continued to dawdle, he might even have to leave his life behind right here.

Very quickly, Ren Youran and his men disappeared from sight.

Seeing their figures disappear into the distance, Li Shaoqiu and the rest felt as though they were in a dream.

“Qingjue, why are you here?” asked Ling Chuxi in an urgent, delighted manner as she looked at him. She unexpectedly tugged against her wound in her excitement, causing her to frown in pain.

“After I got to know that they were going to intercept your journey to kill all of you, I came rushing over,” explained Huangfu Qingjue as he went forward to check on Ling Chuxi’s injuries. “Good thing you’re not too seriously injured. I’m sorry, Chuxi. I got here too late.”

“No, Qingjue. You shouldn’t be…” Seeing the layer of dust on Huangfu Qingjue, Ling Chuxi felt her heart tighten. Time and time again, whenever she met with danger, Huangfu Qingjue always appeared in the nick of time to help her just like this. As for herself? What had she ever done for him? It seemed to her that she hadn’t done a single thing! Seeing Huangfu Qingjue blame himself like this, Ling Chuxi felt so anxious that she kept shaking her head. ‘Qingjue, Qingjue. I have carved all of your intentions with great regard in my heart.’

Ling Yichen watched on with extremely complicated feelings in his heart. Huangfu Qingjue’s words just now were like a shocking clap of thunder exploding in his ears, his mind and his heart! Ling Chuxi was his woman?! Observing the two of them, they seem to have known each other well for quite some time. When did this happen? Why was he so unaware of it? If he had thought such words were merely spoken by the Lord Divine Messenger to scare Ren Youran and his men off in a bid to lend them helping hand earlier, that notion was dispelled by seeing how both the Lord Divine Messenger and Ling Chuxi were looking at each other right now. It would be weird if Ling Yichen still did not understand what was going on. The Lord Divine Messenger clearly had deep affections and a great regard towards Ling Chuxi. And Ling Chuxi herself was not without feelings for him either. Ling Yichen could only feel an incomparable bitterness within his heart. In the end, he despondently lowered his head, unwilling to continue observing the scene unfolding before him.

“It is great that you are fine now,” said Huangfu Qingjue as a relaxed smile appeared on his peerless face. It was as though he had let go of a huge burden. “I’m afraid that I am unable to see you back after this. I still have some matters I need to attend to.”

“All right. And Qingjue…” Tens of thousands of words welled up in Ling Chuxi’s mouth, yet she did not know what to say. She understood his deep affection. Huangfu Qingjue definitely had some important matters left to rush over and deal with, she shouldn’t keep him any longer.

“You don’t have to say anything. You should hurry back quickly,” said Huangfu Qingjue softly with a slight smile.

Ling Chuxi looked at Huangfu Qingjue’s smiling face and nodded vigorously.

After watching Huangfu Qingjue depart, Ling Chuxi went to fetch more antidote pills and mixed them with clean water to let Li Shaoqiu and the rest of the fleet resolve the effects of the first prince’s poison while the few of them who had already recovered rushed ahead towards the capital.

The first prince had poisoned the group of them and even had the men from Wu Feng Hall ambush them as part of his backup plan to get rid of them, so he thought that nothing could go wrong. Without any worries about the future, he would definitely be able to usurp the throne without waiting any longer. At this moment, the emperor and the rest of the families close to the royal family were in a precarious situation. Once the first prince succeeded, the Ling family, the Lan family, the Baili family clan and more who had close ties to the royal family would definitely be purged. Ling Chuxi and the rest did not dare delay their journey to the capital for even a moment.

At night, the capital was shrouded in silence.

The magnificent structure of the main hall stood as majestically as ever within the palace courtyard, but the pools of deep red blood upon the steps leading to it made for a peculiar sight.

Around the hall, countless warriors in black armor stood with their bowstrings drawn, the cold tips of their strung arrows pointing eerily towards the main hall.

In the hall, the emperor sat upright upon the Dragon Throne. His gaze remained calm and collected. A few righteous members of the Forbidden Army stood by his side protectively, their faces filled with fury. Fu Chengyu also stood by his side. At the base of the throne, surrounded by a group of warriors in black armor, the first prince stared up at his own father with a gloomy face.
