Chapter 497: Long Yang’s Thin Lips Pursed, Hiding The Unhappiness Behind It
When Long Yang found out Lu Liangwei had been abducted, it made him frustrated and anxious, which filled him up with hostility. He could not wait to cut up whoever had abducted her into a million pieces.
Yet, Madam Lin chose to say such words at this point, which ignited the murderous intent within Long Yang’s eyes. There was a bright flash and the sword on his waist was pulled out of its sheath as an abundance of energy flowed into the sword, which came slashing down toward Madam Lin’s head.
Madam Lin sensed the extreme danger just in time.
She immediately pulled away from where she stood, narrowly escaping the impending crisis.
However, despite being quick in her reaction, a large chunk of cloth was cut off from the corner of her dress.
Madam Lin was enraged. With the razor-sharp sword in her hand, she crouched slightly and rushed forward, aiming to stab Long Yang fatally in the heart and end his life right there.
Li Liangwei heard the intense fighting coming from outside of the horse-drawn carriage. The frown on her face became tighter.
She had just heard Long Yang’s voice. She had never expected that he would come personally for her…
Mixed feelings welled up within her, but she also felt a warmth in her heart at the same time.
As the fighting intensified outside the carriage, she pulled herself together and pushed back the curtains as she stepped out of the carriage. When she saw the fighting in front of her eyes, she could not help shouting out loud. “Stop it. All of you, stop fighting!”
The people outside paused momentarily in their actions.
“Second Miss Lu?” Chu Yi called out in delight as he flung off the man in black with a wave of his sword and turned toward Lu Liangwei, who had exited the carriage.
Not far away, Long Yang, who was engaged in battle with Madam Lin, turned to look at her as well. He lashed at Madam Lin with one stroke of this sword and jumped forward, flying toward the horse-drawn carriage.
There was no way Madam Lin was going to allow him anywhere near Lu Liangwei. She struck at the man’s back with her sword.
“Watch out!” Lu Liangwei screamed out with fright.
Long Yang did not even look back as he gave a wave of his sleeve. A strong gust of vigorous wind was swept in an instant at Madam Lin’s direction.
Madam Lin was not prepared for it and her entire body was sent flying backward.
“Lihua…” The man in black roared as he stopped attacking the relentless Chu Yi and flew toward Madam Lin in an attempt to grab her.
However, his movements were not quick enough. By the time he reached out to catch her, Madam Lin had soared over the top of his head.
Right at that moment, thundering claps of horse hooves could be heard. In an instant, Lu Hetian had arrived with his men as well.
He had been so consumed by thoughts of his daughter’s safety that when he saw a woman flying toward him whose figure looked similar to Lu Liangwei, he had mistaken it for his daughter, and fear immediately struck him. With a tap with the tip of his toes, he launched himself from the back of the horse and clutched Madam Lin, who was flying in the air, in his arms.
Even though Lu Liangwei had been abducted like this by Madam Lin, she still could not help but feel worried for Madam Lin when she flew off in the air from the attack, especially when she heard the name being called out by the man in black. She hoped fervently that nothing would happen to Madam Lin.
Lu Liangwei was relieved when she saw her father grab Madam Lin. She quickly held Long Yang’s hand and urged him, “Your Majesty, let’s go take a look quickly.”
When Long Yang saw the anxiousness on her expression, his thin lips pursed, hiding the unhappiness behind it.
He had worried himself sick over the entire night for this girl, and now that he had found her after so much difficulty, he was not even given the chance to take a good look at her. Worse still, she was worried about some other person.
He frowned, feeling a little upset. If he knew this would happen, he would have killed that Madam Lin instantly.
He had let her off easy because the person had not caused any real harm to Weiwei. Besides, he had yet to find out her reason for abducting Weiwei.
Now, she had now taken all of Weiwei’s attention, which made him feel even more unhappy about the situation.
However, no matter how upset he felt, he was not able to reject the request of the girl in front of him, neither did he want to.
“Alright,” he replied indifferently and put his arm around her waist as he jumped onto the horse.
Lu Liangwei was momentarily stunned from being pulled into his arms without warning, but right then, she was more concerned over Madam Lin, which was why she ignored it. She even urged him further. “Your Majesty, please be faster.”
Long Yang was a little angry about this and the arm around her waist gripped her even tighter.
