Dethroned from the Imperial Throne, Why Are You So Anxious When I Don't Want It Anymore? - Chapter 8
Chapter 8: Coming With Me?
“Qin Ruoxian, what do you mean! ” Hearing this, Ye Qingwan’s expression instantly became unsightly, staring fixedly at Qin Ruoxian.
Qin Ruoxian merely glanced indifferently at Ye Qingwan and said, “Great Yan? You can’t even understand human speech? You still come to ask me? ”
Ye Qingwan trembled with anger. This was the first time someone dared to speak to her like this. Coldly snorting, she said, “You’ve truly forgotten where you are now, Qingxuan, take her down, and let the Great Qin Sovereign come and personally request her! ”
“Are you saying this without putting this old man in your eyes?!” Hearing this, the Elder beside Qin Ruoxian’s expression darkened. He took a step forward, and the terrifying pressure of a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator swept out.
Feeling this pressure, Ye Qingwan and Ye Qingxuan’s expressions both changed, but they weren’t particularly apprehensive.
Ye Qingwan took out a Jade Talisman and crushed it. In the Imperial City, a stream of light instantly rose, arriving at this place within a few breaths.
“Nangong Laogui, you’re not dead yet! ” Seeing the arrival, the Elder’s expression turned serious, and he coldly said.
“Si Tu Laogui, since you’re not dead, how could I bear to die! ” Nangong Wushe looked at Si Tu Guang, sneered, and with a raise of his hand, dispelled Si Tu Guang’s pressure completely.
Nangong Wushe, one of the Protectors of the Great Yan Imperial Family, possessed Nascent Soul Mid Stage cultivation, a realm higher than Si Tu Guang’s Nascent Soul Initial Stage.
In the path of cultivation, the higher the cultivation base, the greater the gap between each realm.
Although Nangong was only one small realm higher than Si Tu, for ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivators, a small realm was like a chasm.
“Daring to run wild in Great Yan, you’ve chosen the wrong place. Rest assured, I won’t take your life. In a few days, I’ll have your father personally come and collect you! Protector Nangong, take her down! ” Ye Qingwan said.
Nangong Wushe looked at Si Tu Guang after hearing this, “Will you surrender or fight? ”
Si Tu Guang sneered and said, “We haven’t fought in over ten years. I’d like to see if your cultivation has improved! ”
As soon as his words fell, Si Tu Guang pointed a finger, and a spiritual light shot out, heading straight for Nangong Wushe.
Nangong Wushe, however, smiled faintly, formed hand seals, and condensed a light shield in front of him, blocking all the spiritual light. Then, he stepped forward, his whole person instantly disappearing. When he reappeared, he was already in front of Si Tu Guang.
Si Tu Guang’s face changed drastically. He just wanted to counterattack but it was too late. Nangong Wushe grabbed Si Tu Guang’s pulse points, instantly suppressing the surging spiritual energy within Si Tu Guang’s body.
“Are you about to break through to the late stage? ” Si Tu Guang looked at Nangong Wushe with an unsightly expression.
Nangong Wushe nodded with a smile, his expression full of arrogance. He then stopped explaining, his gaze falling on Qin Ruoxian beside him. With a flick of his sleeve, a wave of invisible spiritual energy spread out, intending to confine Qin Ruoxian.
But the next moment, a thunderclap sounded. Nangong Wushe only felt a thunder flash before his eyes. Ye Yu stood in front of Qin Ruoxian with a solemn expression, punched out, and dispersed Nangong Wushe’s spiritual energy.
Before everyone could react to what had happened, they heard Ye Yu’s icy voice.
“Touch her, and you will die! ”
The voice was icy, containing endless killing intent. Nangong Wushe couldn’t help but tremble. When he saw the person clearly, his face changed slightly and he said, “Cr…Crown Prince? ”
“I am no longer the Great Yan Crown Prince. Let go! ” Ye Yu looked at Nangong Wushe’s hand gripping Si Tu Guang’s pulse points and said calmly.
Qin Ruoxian looked at Ye Yu standing in front of her, her pretty face flushed. She put away the Jade Talisman in her hand, pretending to look nonchalantly elsewhere, but her eyes frequently stole glances at the figure in front of her.
Nangong Wushe quickly released his hand. He understood Ye Yu very well. He could say that his ability to touch the threshold of the Nascent Soul Late Stage was due to Ye Yu’s guidance.
Six months ago, he was ordered to check the condition of the Nine Nether Bl00d Spring. It was then that he witnessed Ye Yu’s strength and extraordinary abilities. He had personally seen Ye Yu slay a Nascent Soul Stage Demonic Cultivator who had emerged from the Nine Nether Bl00d Spring with a single sword.
It was during that time that Ye Yu gave him a few pointers, allowing him to reach the threshold of the Nascent Soul Late Stage within half a year.
“Where did you get your Golden Core Stage cultivation? Good! You even dared to steal treasures when you left the Imperial Palace! Protector Nangong, take this dog down! ” Ye Qingwan was furious.
She knew that Ye Yu’s Spiritual Root had disappeared. Now that he could have Golden Core Stage cultivation, he must have stolen some Treasures.
Nangong Wushe frowned upon hearing this, looking at Ye Qingwan with a puzzled expression. He had been in closed-door cultivation in the Imperial Palace’s secret grounds for the past six months and was completely unaware of outside matters, making the current scene difficult to understand.
“What is this? ”
“This good-for-nothing has been expelled from the Imperial Family. Protector Nangong, I now order you to take him down! He dares to steal treasures, such precious treasures are only worthy for Little Xuan to possess, you good-for-nothing, how dare you?!” Ye Qingwan’s face was cold, and she spoke through gritted teeth.
Nangong Wushe’s expression was very complex. He looked at Ye Yu, not knowing what to do for a moment.
“Do you intend to defy orders! Fine, I’ll do it myself! ” Seeing Nangong Wushe hesitate, Ye Qingwan could no longer suppress her anger. She formed hand seals, flashed, and rushed towards Ye Yu.
Seeing Ye Qingwan rushing towards him, a cold light flashed in Ye Yu’s eyes. He took a step forward, and a terrifying surge of spiritual energy appeared. Ye Qingwan’s expression changed drastically. She truly felt the killing intent. Ye Yu truly wanted to kill her!
Seeing this, Nangong Wushe’s face changed drastically. He quickly came in front of Ye Qingwan and blocked her, letting out a muffled groan, swallowing the sweetness that welled up, and helplessly said, “Crown Prince, this…we are all family, why must it be like this…”
“Family, who is family with this dog! I want him dead! ” After sensing Ye Yu’s killing intent, Ye Qingwan became even more ferocious and was about to attack again, but Ye Qingxuan pulled her aside.
“Elder Sister, calm down, don’t let people laugh at us. ”
Hearing this, Ye Qingwan glanced at Qin Ruoxian beside her, then gritted her teeth and said, “Good-for-nothing, I’ll give you one last chance. Go with me willingly; this is your only chance! Otherwise, you will never be able to set foot in Great Yan again! ”
Nangong Wushe watched this scene, his brows furrowed. He couldn’t understand why things had turned out this way. The Crown Prince’s excellence was obvious to all, but now it seemed like they were mortal enemies! What had happened in the recent period?
Ye Yu glanced indifferently at Ye Qingwan, ignoring the madwoman. He turned around, looked gently at Qin Ruoxian, and whispered, “How is it? Weren’t you scared? ”
Feeling Ye Yu’s gentleness, Qin Ruoxian felt a little flustered. She cleared her throat, forcing herself to remain calm and said, “What could happen to me? How about it, will you come with me? ”
By the end, Qin Ruoxian felt her heart almost jumping out of her throat.
Unexpectedly, Ye Yu pondered for a while before shaking his head and saying, “No. ”
