Rebuffing Prince Rong
"Greetings, Your Highness."
Luo Zheng said calmly with an indifferent smile.
"Father, this time …"
Rongyue was afraid that King Rong would be enraged. She hurriedly held King Rong's arm and whispered into his ear, telling him everything that Bai Xingjian and Bai Qinghou had done.
As she spoke, her eyes turned slightly red. If she hadn't met Luo Zheng this time, she and Yan Nan 'er would have ended up like this.
Other than Luo Zheng, Yan Nan 'er, and Li Wenrui, no one else knew what Rongyue had said to King Rong.
The old man, Bai Yixuan, was as anxious as a horse ant on a hot pan. He did not know what had happened, but he could vaguely feel that something was wrong. His palms were sweating.
"Rongyue, are you telling the truth?"
After King Rong heard this, fury flashed across his face as he asked in a deep voice.
"Little Moon is absolutely not lying, and father can also ask Sister Nan 'er."
Rongyue nodded slightly, her pretty little face filled with grievance.
"Good, good, good!"
King Rong's eyes flickered. He looked at Yan Nan 'er, then turned to Li Wenrui and the rest. From their expressions, he knew that Rongyue was telling the truth. His expression turned icy cold.
"Luo Zheng!"
After pondering for a moment, King Rong turned his head to Luo Zheng, his eyes revealing a trace of gratitude.
"Your Highness."
Luo Zheng also knew that Rongyue must have told King Rong everything, but he didn't care. His face was as calm as ever.
"This time, you've protected Rongyue and Nan 'er to enter the Magnetite Skyfall Mountain Range to collect spiritual herbs. You've made a great contribution, so I won't be stingy."
When King Rong saw that Luo Zheng's face did not have the slightest trace of pride, he praised him even more in his heart.
When he recalled how he treated Luo Zheng in the mansion, he couldn't help but feel his old face burn, and an apologetic feeling rose in his heart.
After pondering for a moment, King Rong said, "How about this, come with me to King Rong's residence, and you can choose any three of the weapons and martial arts in the treasury!"
"What?!"
"This kid has struck it rich!"
"Anything that can be taken into Prince Rong's treasury is a rare treasure in the world. This little Luo Zheng is really lucky!"
Many people looked at Luo Zheng with envy. They were so jealous that they were about to go crazy.
Being able to choose treasures from King Rong's treasury was one thing, but more importantly, King Rong had personally expressed his goodwill, which was equivalent to acknowledging Luo Zheng.
The three Kings of the Hundred Battles Dynasty were all top-notch experts in the martial arts world. They were deeply trusted by the War Emperor and had made great contributions to the empire.
Although Rong Lun, the Rong King, was ranked below the Saint Martial King, Wu Guixuan, he was still extremely powerful.
Obtaining Rong Lun's approval was equivalent to having a limitless future!
Furthermore, everyone present could see that Princess Rongyue's gaze had never left Luo Zheng.
Needless to say, Princess Rongyue had already fallen in love with Luo Zheng. With King Rong's approval, it wouldn't be long before Luo Zheng became King Rong's son-in-law.
"Thank you, Your Highness. I'm afraid that Luo Zheng doesn't deserve this treasure."
Luo Zheng smiled faintly and shook his head indifferently.
Although Luo Zheng no longer took King Rong's previous contempt to heart, it didn't mean that he could forget the humiliation.
"So what if the Rong Family is a super family? So what if the Rong Family is as rich as a country? Could it be that the martial arts of the Rong Family are superior to the Heavenly Flood Dragon Seven Kills Technique? Could it be that there are divine weapons in the Rong Family that can't be made in the Heavenly Record? "
Luo Zheng thought coldly. "Although I didn't take King Rong's previous contempt to heart, I don't care about it. It doesn't mean that I can easily accept his apology. "
Silence!
In an instant, the surroundings were dead silent. Everyone felt a cold aura emanating from King Rong's body, as if it had frozen thousands of miles.
Many people gasped and swallowed their saliva.
"How dare he!"
"Audacious! How dare you!"
"How dare he refute King Rong in public! This kid must have eaten a bear's heart and a tiger's gall!"
Many people couldn't help but think in their hearts, but they didn't dare to speak out.
"Hahahaha!"
Suddenly, King Rong laughed loudly. His eyes were bright like knives and swords. "Not bad, not bad. Kid, this is the second time you've impressed me. You've done well today!"
"Thank you, Your Highness, for the compliment."
Luo Zheng grinned with a calm expression.
"Yue 'er, Nan' er, let's go back!"
With that, King Rong's Primordial Qi gushed out, enveloping Rongyue and Yan Nan 'er, and landed on the golden jade carriage.
Whoosh!
The golden jade carriage rose into the air and suddenly tore open the space, disappearing without a trace.
"Brother Luo, your courage is really …"
Li Wenrui looked at Luo Zheng, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He didn't know what to say.
"Sigh, my heart almost jumped out just now. I was afraid that King Rong would crush you to death. This time, I'm completely convinced by you."
Wang Anhe also had a lingering fear. He clutched his chest, looking as if he was about to suffocate.
Everyone stared at Luo Zheng with disbelief in their eyes.
"Where's Young Marquis Xingjian and Brother Qing Hou? Why didn't they come back with you? "
At this moment, Bai Yixuan walked over, looking at the few of them with a cold gaze, and asked.
"After entering the Magnetite Skyfall Mountain Range, Brother Qing Hou and Young Marquis Xingjian left the team. We don't know either."
Li Wenrui, Wang An, Chen Man and the others looked at each other and said.
