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 shouldn’t ask, but you still feel frustrated inside, don’t you?” Tianyuan Bing glanced at Wu Tingsheng.
Wu Tingsheng bowed and said, “This servant dares 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.
Tianyuan Bing, however, just smiled, waved his hand to indicate it was fine, and then said, “This person managed to kill Xu Boyuan and Lu Cuishan. How confident are you two that you could defeat her?”
“Secondly, this person is a mortal enemy of the Tianji Mansion and the Shengdan Sect. There are thousands of warriors from the Tianji Mansion and the Shengdan Sect here, and countless of them want to kill her. Why should we offend her and risk our lives to do so?”
“Even if we killed her, wouldn’t the rest of Lingjian Mountain hate our Tiyan Empire?”
“Moreover, the head of Lingjian Mountain, Si Yin, cares deeply for her. Whoever kills Ye Wushuang will have to face Si Yin’s wrath!”
“We don’t need to be the villains here.”
“It’s better to let Ye Wushuang and those prodigies and monsters from the Tianji Mansion and the Shengdan Sect fight it out. Causing them great trouble will also reduce our own troubles…”
Shan Yucheng immediately said, “Your Highness is absolutely right. We didn’t think it through.”
Wu Tingsheng, however, muttered, “But she killed Xu Boyuan and Lu Cuishan. If we swallow this, it will make our Tiyan Empire look like an easy target.”
As soon as he said this, Shan Yucheng quickly glared at Wu Tingsheng.
Tianyuan Bing, however, just smiled and said, “Xu Boyuan and Lu Cuishan deserved their deaths for provoking Ye Wushuang. The emperor has ordered that no one in the empire should provoke Ye Wushuang. They didn’t take the emperor’s order seriously. And neither did you two, did you?”
Upon hearing this, Wu Tingsheng and Shan Yucheng’s faces changed again, and they dared not say anything more.
In the entire Tiyan Empire, the current emperor was truly awe-inspiring. Whoever dared to defy him would face certain death!
Although the Tiyan Empire was somewhat like a sect, it was still an imperial empire. Within the empire, the emperor was the absolute ruler, and no one dared to go against his word!
On the other side, Ye Wushuang was walking down the street with Jia Tiancai, Yun Yin, and the others after leaving the courtyard.
At this moment, Jia Tiancai felt as if he were dreaming.
“I never expected Prince Tianyuan Bing to be so magnanimous!”
Jia Tiancai was astonished. “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 think so too,” 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 region knows that the head of Lingjian Mountain, Si Yin, treats me very well.”
“Moreover, I’m in a deadly feud with the Tianji Mansion and the Shengdan Sect, and… the Li clan also harbors some hatred towards me.”
“There are already many people in the Tianmen and Dimen who want to kill me. Why should the Tiyan Empire 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 immediately said, “I understand now. This guy is just staying out of it, watching us fight among ourselves!”
As soon as he said this, Yun Yin and Gong Yangyan both had expressions of speechlessness.
Fight among ourselves?
Who are you calling a dog?
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 so he can benefit from it…”
But at this moment, Ye Wushuang was not paying attention to Jia Tiancai’s words. Instead, she 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 sash around it, holding a paper fan and chatting cheerfully 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 to her.
The leading young man in white also narrowed his eyes, looking at the seven people more than ten zhang away.
At this moment, Jia Tiancai and the others became wary.
It had to be said that Ye Wushuang hadn’t done much yet, but her fame… was already quite widespread!
“Indeed…”
The leading young man in white smiled, unfolded his paper fan, and fanned himself gently, saying with a smile, “It seems my luck is pretty good today!”
