"And I still thought… turns out… aiiii" Yu BingYan wanted to say so in her words was already very clearly conveyed

The courtyard door lightly opened, and a youth dressed completely in black walked in One could clearly see that he was elegant and handsome, but his expression was just like a dead board except for his eyes which were like a predator, piercing and fierce

"Ling Jian, why are you here?" Because Princess JiaoYue ca Tian’s trusted aide, and thus couldn't help but blurt out

Seeing the three ladies, Ling Jian couldn't help but be startled

Under nor Residence in the day However, he had just received soent and i Tian in order to plan a counter Jian recklessly decided to rush over Little did he know that not only was Ling Tian not present, there were even three beautiful ladies looking at hi a rare specihness is here I was looking for young noble about some matters, but since he’s not here, this servant shall take his leave" Since Ling Tian was not around, there was no point in Ling Jian staying over He said his piece, thinking ‘I’ll come back later,’ as he looked up to see the sky dyed in cri Jian, I have so to ask you" Princess JiaoYue shot him a smile that was not really a s Jian, to actually collude with your young noble to make a fool out of this princess for soJian was immediately put in a spot If another lady dared to talk to him this way, he most likely would have had silenced her with a stab, even if the person was fro Ran’s daughter, whichJian couldn't find an answer to give to her, and could only cautiously reply, "What’s thebehind Princess’s statement? This servant does not really know I still have otherFaive respect to the trusted aides of Ling Tian, whichJian was not a mere servant, but since he didn't kno much Princess JiaoYue are of, he could only play the part of a servant

"Hmph, you don’t understand?" Princess JiaoYue coldly snorted once, "I think you understand it clearer than anyone else here! Hurry up and confess to this princess now!"

Hearing this, Ling Jian shut hisintent exuded from his body With an indifferent tone, he icily spoke, "So noble, princess!" This sentence sounded like nothing a servant would say to theirlike what someone would say to a princess of a country In his tone was an arrogance carved deep in his bones, as well as disdain towards the Sky Bearing Royal Fa the First Pavilion these few years, other than Ling Tian, Ling Chen and Old Mada, there was nobody in this vast world that he considered his superior! The only exception was Yu ManTian, but even with his exceptional htforward personality, and his trustworthiness, he had only gained the respect of Ling Jian!

Don’t joke withnoble, there is nobody else capable of ordering ? If you were not the cousin of Ling Tian, just based on your first sentence, I would’ve killed you! Even if you were Long Xiang, with but a co noble, he would only end up as a departed spirit under my blade! You all, have no qualifications to talk toJian only spoke that one sentence before turning to leave However, when had Princess JiaoYue had so Xue, who hated her mother and her to the bones, had to use a civil tone to address her! To think that Ling Jian would be so bold! At that ry that she was at a co, unable to for to step out of the door when a , "Someone from the Wei Residence has come May Miss Wei quickly return to the Residence, Sir and Mada to discuss with you"

Princess JiaoYue asked, "How er replied, "Two; one of the about what happened to her and Ling Tian on the way to the palace today, Princess JiaoYue couldn't help but worry about Wei XuanXuan If she reallyon the ould that not be trouble for her? Now that all sorts of , who knows if there would be another such silkpants roa the streets!

As such, she frowned and replied, "With the unstable state that Sky Bearing is currently, wouldn’t it be dangerous to escort Sister XuanXuan houards" Casting her gaze over to the exiting Ling Jian, she snapped at hiet hi Jian was already frustrated by the fact that he couldn't get to Ling Tian on ti that Princess JiaoYue actually wanted hi hiation, he couldn't help but roll his eyes, saying, "Why do we need so many? Just myself alone will do!"

Princess JiaoYue coldly snorted, about to chide hi, "With this elder brother escorting, Miss Wei will definitely be safe" As she spoke, she shot Princess JiaoYue a knowing glance

Seeing Ling Jian accompany Wei XuanXuan out, Princess JiaoYue couldn't help but ask in bewilderuy isn’t even skilled, how could he take care of Sister XuanXuan?"

"Princess can relax, there will definitely not be any probleave a sweet se and experience couldn't coYan couldn't practice ht for details were at the level of an expert She had onlyJian this one ti intent, she had a rude shock upon realizing that Ling Jian’s internal strength was only one step away from the XianTian realm! He could at least be considered as a White Jade cultivator in their fae, even for her Yu Fa interacted with Princess JiaoYue before, she knew that the latter was innately kind and thus couldn't bear to watch as she offended a potential future expert How could such an expert place a princess in such a s Chen were enough to shock people out of their wits To think that there was still another Ling Jian!

In the last few days, she had discovered that aResidence already possessed three such experts! And they were all extre Family exactly? How many more hidden experts did they actually have? Hoas it possible for a north?

Upon considering the possibilities, Yu BingYan then realized that the Mysterious Yin Essence Heart Sutra that she found in Ling Tian’s study was definitely not so Tian had probably spentabout how h to Yan couldn't help but feel a wave of happiness surge through her, and the corners of her eyes greet At that ti Tian probably didn't want her to know about his strength, as well as didn't want her to feel uneasy if she were to discover anything, right?

Yu BingYan foolishly leaned on the courtyard door, letting the gentle breeze tug at her sleeves as she stood there in a daze…

While the Wei residence was not far away fro residence, the as about an hour Sir and Madahter of theirs, and actually didn't send a sedan over! However, fro Jian acco the nobility, of course didn't know of her requirements Since he could walk a few thousand miles on foot, then this ss! Further Jian didn't volunteer as tribute specially for Wei XuanXuan, but only to escape the interrogation of Princess JiaoYue Until he received the green light fro Tian, no matter how much Princess JiaoYue were to question hi Jian conveniently forgot a huge point! Wei XuanXuan was a noblewoman who seldom stepped out of her house With her weak constitution, hoas she able to withstand such a long journey?

She had only taken a few steps when she felt her legs turning numb At the front, while the butler of the Wei Family would look back in concern, he seemed to not want to stop for a rest! Wei XuanXuan couldn't felt but feel bitter, knowing that it was the intention of her parents for her to suffer a little! Having previously been dragged along by Yu ManTian, her two legs were still hurting, and knowing that there was such a long route ahead of her, she was acutely aware of the pain in her legs
