"What a sharp-tongued girl!" Jin Xidao's eyes suddenly narrowed, and the cold light flickered in them, making people feel horrified.
The royal family relied heavily on the Jin family, and Duan Lengyan did not want to fall out with Jin Xidao, but Jin Xidao went too far. Duan Lengyan had to consider the royal dignity, so she spoke a little harder. Just as she was thinking about how to lighten the atmosphere, something she never expected happened.
Jin Xidao first narrowed his eyes and glared at Duan Lengyan for a while, then suddenly raised his hand and slapped Duan Lengyan on the cheek. Duan Lengyan's heart tightened, and she subconsciously wanted to dodge, but how could her movements be faster than Jin Xidao's? In the blink of an eye, a burning pain quickly spread from Duan Lengyan's cheek to her whole body.
It wasn't until her cheeks swelled that Duan Lengyan realized what had happened.
A huge wave of humiliation immediately swept through Duan Lengyan's body. Duan Lengyan's delicate body was like a flower branch in a violent storm, trembling incessantly. A pair of almond-shaped eyes stared at Jin Xidao as if they were about to spit out fire, and said through gritted teeth, "You...how dare you? Someone's here!"
Duan Lengyan scolded, and the guards guarding outside the room immediately rushed in and glared at Jin Xidao fiercely.
Fu Chuanjing snorted coldly and unsheathed the sword at his waist, his face full of coldness and disdain.
Jin Xidao straightened his back, put his hands behind his back, glanced at the guards who rushed in with contempt, and then looked at Duan Lengyan provocatively.
"Third Princess!" The nurse next to Duan Lengyan had long been dissatisfied with Fu Chuanjing and others. At this time, she only waited for Duan Lengyan's order before she rushed forward and chopped Fu Chuanjing and Jin Xidao into meat paste.
Facing the scene in front of him, Jin Xidao was so busy and relaxed that he didn't take it seriously. He sneered and said, "Duan Lengyan, if you have the ability, let your people rush up. I will never fight back, Third Master. If you want to fight or kill, please do as you please!"
"you… "
The disdainful look on Jin Xidao's face was like a steel thorn, piercing into Duan Lengyan's heart, making her tremble all over. But Duan Lengyan knew in her heart that she really didn't have the ability.
Not to mention whether she and her guards could do anything to Jin Xidao and Fu Chuanjing, even if they could, she would not dare to issue this order. The Jin family is too big. If Jin Xidao is touched, the entire royal family may face catastrophe. Duan Lengyan really doesn't dare.
"How about it? If you have the ability, give the order. If you don't, just tell them to get out! Otherwise, they will have to lie down and get out!"
Jin Xidao was considered a figure in the Iron War Dynasty. What kind of storms had he not seen? Duan Lengyan, a little girl, he really didn't take seriously.
Duan Lengyan clenched her teeth, unable to vent the hatred in her heart, which almost caused her internal injuries. It's just that she could endure this situation, this tone, and if she couldn't, she had to endure it even if she broke her teeth.
"Back... down!" Duan Lengyan almost used all her strength to say these two words. Unknowingly, her eyes were covered with a layer of tears.
"Third Princess!" Duan Lengyan's guards were more loyal than the last. Seeing Duan Lengyan being humiliated like this, they were unable to take any action, and their eyes were all red.
"Stop talking, listen to my order and retreat!" Duan Lengyan waved her hand fiercely and shouted with her eyes closed.
The guards, filled with resentment and deep helplessness, exited the room.
Jin Xidao looked at Duan Lengyan and sneered, "You think as a princess, I can't hit you? What a joke! In my eyes, you are just a junior, a girl who doesn't understand shit. I want to be with you If you act like a princess in front of the third master, then you are just looking for trouble!"
Duan Lengyan took a long breath and said in a low and cold voice, "Leng Yan will definitely remember Third Master's teaching today and never forget it!"
Jin Xidao sneered, curled his lips and said, "I know you hate me so much in your heart, but I don't care at all. Jin Sen and Jin Mu were crippled like this. Although the boy named Xu Yaoting is going to die, you can't escape either." It doesn’t matter! Can we, the descendants of the Jin family, be bullied casually?”
Duan Lengyan snorted lightly and did not answer. But he knew clearly in his heart that Jin Xidao would definitely not treat her like this if he was not instigated by someone. And the person behind this is not sure which one of his two brothers is it. Duan Lengyan couldn't help but feel a burst of sadness in her heart. The tragedy of fratricide was never a rare thing among the royal family.
After giving Duan Lengyan a lesson, Jin Xidao felt a lot calmer. He turned around and sat on the chair of the imperial master. He looked at Duan Lengyan as if he were a junior and asked casually, "Where is your master? I'm here. Isn't he even willing to show his face?" A face?"
Duan Lengyan raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "Master is in retreat."
"Retreat? Humph... If you're like Wu Qiujun, what can you do if you go into seclusion? It's a waste of time!"
Duan Lengyan sneered in her heart. Although Jin Xidao was full of disdain when he mentioned Wu Qiujun, she knew very well that if Jin Xidao could still be so polite to her, it was definitely because of Wu Qiujun.
Masters of the ninth level of Qi are rare even in the Iron War Dynasty. What's more, Wu Qiujun single-handedly founded Tianbao Pavilion and has considerable private power. Just say that most of the guards around Duan Lengyan were assigned by Wu Qiujun.
Duan Lengyan thought in her heart and said, "Master, he has taken the 'Sacred Pill'. After he comes out of seclusion, his cultivation level will definitely increase greatly!"
Now that she knew Jin Xidao's thoughts, Duan Lengyan naturally didn't mind making him feel a little uncomfortable and spoke in a neutral tone.
The higher Wu Qiujun's cultivation level, the more wary Jin Xidao will be of him, and the safer her situation will be.
This was Duan Lengyan's plan in her heart, but the reality did not seem to be developing in the direction she expected. After listening to her words, Jin Xidao's face did not show a solemn and fearful look, but it seemed... there seemed to be a touch of surprise on his face.
"You said Wu Qiujun took the Holy Pill?" Jin Xidao asked almost involuntarily, and Duan Lengyan could hear more joy in his voice.
This is not normal, this is so abnormal! Duan Lengyan's heart sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition quickly spread in her heart.
"Not bad! Why, Third Master, do you think there's anything wrong with this?"
"Isn't that right?" Jin Xidao was stunned for a moment, then waved his hands and said with a smile: "What's wrong? Oh, you think I shouldn't be so happy? This is your fault. Every time our Iron War Dynasty increases, Being a master means you have more strength, of course I am happy! Hahaha..."
Seeing that Duan Lengyan was not a fool, she would naturally not believe Jin Xidao's words, and her heart became more and more nervous. But he didn't open his mouth to ask again. Even if he asked, Jin Xidao would never say anything. (To be continued)
