Shan Yucheng quickly said, “Your Highness, whatever you do must have your reasons. As subjects, we should not ask what we are not supposed to ask.”
“Not asking what you’re not supposed to ask, but still feeling frustrated inside, right?” Tianyuan Bing glanced at Wu Tingsheng.
Wu Tingsheng bowed and said, “I dare not, but… I just don’t understand…”
Why let Ye Wushuang go?
With the Seventh Prince here, plus the two of them, killing Ye Wushuang would not be difficult.
Hearing this, Shan Yucheng quickly tugged at Wu Tingsheng.
However, Tianyuan Bing just smiled, waved his hand to indicate it was fine, and then said, “Do you two really think you have a good chance of defeating someone who killed Xu Boyuan and Lu Cuishan?”
“Secondly, this fellow is a mortal enemy of the Heavenly Mechanism Mansion and the Sacred Dan Sect. There are thousands of martial artists from those factions here, and countless of them want him dead. Why should we offend him and risk our own safety to kill him?”
“Even if we did kill him, wouldn’t the rest of Lingjian Mountain hate our Tiyan Dynasty?”
“Moreover, the head of Lingjian Mountain, Lady Siyin, cares deeply for him. Whoever kills Ye Wushuang will have to face her wrath!”
“We don’t need to be the villains here.”
“Instead, let Ye Wushuang and those prodigies and monsters from the Heavenly Mechanism Mansion and the Sacred Dan Sect fight it out. It will cause them a lot of trouble, which is less trouble for us…”
Shan Yucheng immediately said, “Your Highness is absolutely right. We didn’t think it through.”
However, Wu Tingsheng muttered, “But he killed Xu Boyuan and Lu Cuishan. If we just swallow this, it will make our Tiyan Dynasty look weak.”
As soon as he said this, Shan Yucheng glared at Wu Tingsheng.
Tianyuan Bing, however, just smiled and said, “Xu Boyuan and Lu Cuishan deserved their fate for provoking Ye Wushuang. The emperor ordered that no one in the dynasty should provoke Ye Wushuang. They didn’t take the emperor’s order seriously. And neither did you two, right?”
Upon hearing this, Wu Tingsheng and Shan Yucheng’s faces changed again, and they dared not say anything more.
In the entire Tiyan Dynasty, the current emperor was truly awe-inspiring. Anyone who dared to defy him was doomed.
Although the Tiyan Dynasty was somewhat like a sect, it was still an imperial dynasty. Within the dynasty, the emperor was the absolute ruler, and no one dared to go against his word.
On the other side, Ye Wushuang led Jia Tiancai, Yun Yin, and the others out of the courtyard and walked along the street.
It felt like a dream to Jia Tiancai.
“I never expected Prince Tianyuan to be so magnanimous!” Jia Tiancai was amazed. “He just let us go like that!”
Yun Yin, however, said, “Magnanimous? I don’t think so. I think he’s just afraid of Ye Wushuang.”
“I agree,” Gong Yangyan, who usually spoke little, also nodded.
At this moment, Ye Wushuang said, “It’s not that he’s magnanimous, nor that he’s afraid of me. It’s just that… he doesn’t want to be my enemy!”
Everyone looked at Ye Wushuang.
“Everyone in the Qingzhou Continent knows that I am highly favored by the head of Lingjian Mountain, Lady Siyin.”
“Moreover, I am in a deadly feud with the Heavenly Mechanism Mansion and the Sacred Dan Sect, and… the Li Clan also harbors some hatred towards me.”
“There are already many people in the Tianmen and Dimen who want me dead. Why should the Tiyan Dynasty get involved in this mess?”
“Besides, whoever kills me will clearly face fierce retaliation from Lingjian Mountain. Why would he want to do that?”
Jia Tiancai then said, “I understand now. This guy is just staying out of it and watching us fight among ourselves!”
Upon hearing this, Yun Yin and Gong Yangyan both had expressions of speechlessness.
Fight among ourselves?
Who are you insulting?
Jia Tiancai also realized he had misspoken and quickly said, “Ye Wushuang, that’s not what I meant. He wants to watch us fight each other and then take advantage of the situation…”
However, at this moment, Ye Wushuang was not paying attention to Jia Tiancai’s words. Instead, he looked towards the corner of the street.
A dozen or so figures were approaching from the other side.
The leader of the group was a young man dressed like a scholar, with long hair tied up and a white ribbon, holding a paper fan, and chatting amicably with the people around him.
The two groups met.
The scene was somewhat calm for a moment.
But this calm was soon broken by a cry of surprise.
“Ye Wushuang!”
One of the dozen or so people exclaimed in surprise.
Ye Wushuang?
Instantly, all eyes turned towards them.
The leading young man in white also narrowed his eyes, looking at the group of seven people more than ten zhang away.
At this moment, Jia Tiancai and the others all became vigilant.
It had to be said that Ye Wushuang hadn’t done much yet, but his fame… was already quite widespread!
“Indeed…”
The leading young man in white smiled faintly, unfolded his paper fan, and fanned himself gently, saying with a smile, “It seems my luck is quite good today!”
