Dethroned from the Imperial Throne, Why Are You So Anxious When I Don't Want It Anymore? - Chapter 34
Chapter 34: Brother Yu, Save Me!
Qingyun Sect’s people all changed their expressions upon seeing Liu Ruyun’s appearance.
Lin Jingfeng, who was leading them, looked even worse. Before leaving, Sect Master Leng Qianqiu had repeatedly instructed him to protect Liu Ruyun and to absolutely prevent any mishaps.
Senior Martial Sister Yan Ruyue’s poison still required Ye Yu’s help to resolve.
Immediately, Lin Jingfeng’s face turned cold, and he arrived at the inn with killing intent.
Seeing Lin Jingfeng arrive, everyone automatically made way.
They certainly recognized Lin Jingfeng, Qingyun Sect’s Senior Martial Brother.
“Who did this!? Do you really think our Qingyun Sect is easy to mess with!?” Lin Jingfeng strode into the inn’s door and immediately questioned.
“Senior Brother, it was him! ” Liu Ruyun followed in, didn’t see Ziyun, and immediately pointed at Ye Yu, with a smug look on her face.
Feng Qing’er looked at Lin Jingfeng with a completely infatuated expression. Not only was his background powerful, but his talent was also extremely high. Rumor had it that he was only one step away from the Nascent Soul Stage, making him the perfect Prince Consort in her heart.
Lin Jingfeng followed Liu Ruyun’s finger and saw Ye Yu, immediately changing his expression and rushing over to ask, “You are Ye Yu, right? ”
Ye Yu looked at Lin Jingfeng strangely. This fellow didn’t seem to have come to stand up for Liu Ruyun? He then said, “I am. ”
“Great! Daoist Friend Ye, I’ve been looking for you for a long time. ” Lin Jingfeng’s face showed wild joy. Their reason for pampering Liu Ruyun was, after all, because of Ye Yu.
Looking at Lin Jingfeng’s expectant gaze, Ye Yu finally realized and asked, “Is it because of Yan Ruyue? ”
Lin Jingfeng eagerly nodded, saying, “Yes! We were even thinking that if we didn’t meet Daoist Friend Ye this time, we would ask your fiancée to lead us to you. ”
“My fiancée? You mean her? ” Ye Yu pointed to Liu Ruyun, who was standing there dumbfounded.
Being pointed at by Ye Yu, Liu Ruyun trembled, her face turning pale. Only now did she remember why Qingyun Sect had taken her in—because she had claimed to be Ye Yu’s fiancée!
“Yes, isn’t she? ” Lin Jingfeng also realized this, asking.
Ye Yu smiled, shook his head, and was just about to speak when Liu Ruyun suddenly rushed over, saying, “Senior Brother Lin, what are you saying? Of course I am Brother Yu’s fiancée. ”
Seeing Liu Ruyun’s incredibly fast change in expression, the sisters who had come to support Liu Ruyun looked at each other in bewilderment, unsure of the current situation.
Meeting Lin Jingfeng’s inquiring gaze, Liu Ruyun leaned into Ye Yu’s ear and whispered, “Ye Yu, I forgive you. Let’s resume our engagement from now on. ”
After saying this, Liu Ruyun looked at Ye Yu with a pitiful expression. Ye Yu had always fallen for this act in the past. As long as Liu Ruyun acted pitiful, Ye Yu would agree to anything.
But this time, Liu Ruyun saw disgust in Ye Yu’s eyes.
The next moment, Ye Yu’s spiritual energy burst forth, directly shocking and sending her flying. He laughed, “She is certainly not my fiancée. I don’t know where Daoist Friend Lin got that information from. ”
Lin Jingfeng’s face fell upon hearing this. He turned to look at Liu Ruyun and asked, “You’ve been deceiving us? ”
Being stared at by Lin Jingfeng, Liu Ruyun suddenly felt parched and a strange fear welled up. The consequences of deceiving Qingyun Sect were unimaginable, so she could only look to Feng Qing’er for help.
“It’s not Ruyun’s fault. It’s all because Ye Yu is a scumbag who is fickle. Ruyun is also a victim! ” Feng Qing’er quickly said.
Many people realized what was happening and sneered. Being treated like trash and still claiming to be someone’s fiancée, was that reasonable?
Everyone realized they had been tricked and looked at Liu Ruyun coldly.
Feeling the gazes of everyone, Liu Ruyun trembled. She saw Qin Ruoxian’s Autumn Water Sword and quickly grabbed it, saying to Ye Yu, “Didn’t you say that whoever has the Autumn Water Sword is your dearest? Now that the Autumn Water Sword is in my hands, I am your fiancée! ”
“Right, Ye Yu, right! Say something! ”
Ye Yu glanced calmly at the frantic Liu Ruyun. With a thought, the Autumn Water Sword emitted a buzzing sound, breaking free from Liu Ruyun’s grasp and slowly falling beside Qin Ruoxian.
Seeing this, Qin Ruoxian smiled sweetly and put the Autumn Water Sword into her storage ring.
“No! The Autumn Water Sword is mine, give it back to me! ” Seeing this, Liu Ruyun went crazy and lunged forward, but Lin Jingfeng kicked her to the ground.
“I’m sorry, Daoist Friend Ye, we didn’t get things clear. ” Lin Jingfeng said apologetically.
Feeling the cold gazes of the Qingyun Sect disciples, Liu Ruyun broke down. Previously, she had been cherished by everyone in the sect.
It was precisely because of this that Liu Ruyun gradually forgot the reason she had joined Qingyun Sect.
This huge disparity was too much for her to accept for the moment.
Ye Yu looked deeply at Lin Jingfeng. Lin Jingfeng couldn’t have been unaware of the rumors Liu Ruyun spread about him.
These lies were full of holes. It was fine if outsiders didn’t know, but the people of Qingyun Sect couldn’t possibly not know, especially since Yan Ruyue was present when the engagement was broken off.
The reason for doing this was simply that they intentionally wanted Liu Ruyun to make a big fuss, so that regardless of whether what Liu Ruyun said was true or not, it would lure Ye Yu out. This was probably also why Yan Ruyue brought Liu Ruyun back to Qingyun Sect.
Lin Jingfeng was made uneasy by Ye Yu’s gaze, feeling like he was being seen through, and could only smile awkwardly.
“Alright, now that the matter is settled, you should leave. As for Yan Ruyue’s matter, we’ll talk about it after this Secret Realm is over,” Ye Yu said.
While he disliked Qingyun Sect’s actions, Ye Yu hated the Demon Race even more, so helping Yan Ruyue wasn’t a big deal.
Hearing this, Lin Jingfeng breathed a sigh of relief and left with the Qingyun Sect disciples. Before leaving, he also removed the Qingyun Sect insignia from Liu Ruyun.
The objective had been achieved, and this pawn was no longer of use.
Having lost Qingyun Sect’s protection, Liu Ruyun was quickly surrounded by the cultivators she had completely tricked.
Anyone would be unhappy about being used as a pawn! Especially when that person almost caused them to provoke someone they shouldn’t have!
“No… no… Brother Yu, save me, Brother Yu! ” Liu Ruyun cried.
The people stopped at this moment and looked towards Ye Yu.
Ye Yu glanced at the entrance, then at Si Tu Guang on the second floor. After seeing the other party nod, Ye Yu said, “Do whatever you want, but don’t dirty my eyes. ”
Hearing this, several people immediately dragged Liu Ruyun away.
They were joking! Regardless of Ye Yu’s combat strength, just looking at Lin Jingfeng’s attitude towards him, they knew that Ye Yu was absolutely not someone to provoke. Not to mention that there was also a female devil on the second floor!
“Stop! ” After everyone dragged Liu Ruyun away, a shout suddenly rang out.
