"I'll borrow you for a while," the burly old man said lightly.
Shen Bijun's face paled when she heard this. She bit her lip and shouted, "Shameless!"
The burly old man was startled. Only now did he realize that his words had caused the other party to misunderstand. However, he clearly had no interest in explaining and directly pressed towards her. "Obediently cooperate with this old man and you won't suffer any physical pain."
"Dream on!" As a woman, especially one who was born to be a source of calamity, Shen Bijun was naturally very sensitive to such matters. She subconsciously thought of that, especially when she thought about how the innocence she had fought so hard to protect was going to be lost to this old man. She felt so depressed that she wanted to vomit blood.
Rather than being harmed by this old man, it was better to give it to Zhao Weiyi … At this time, Zhao Weiyi's appearance suddenly appeared in Shen Bijun's mind. For some reason, she felt a special sense of closeness towards Zhao Weiyi. Perhaps it was because he had helped her when she needed it the most, or perhaps it was because he was the person her father had entrusted to her before he died …
Unfortunately, he had been sent to the service room … Shen Bijun's face turned red. She didn't know why she still had the time to think about these random things at a time like this.
Seeing the approaching old man, Shen Bijun's eyes suddenly revealed a trace of determination. She gathered all the strength in her body and slammed into a nearby pillar. At this time, she had already given up on the idea of revenge. After all, with the fall of Yelu Yixin and Xiao Xiama, it was inevitable that she would fall out of favor. If she was humiliated by this old man …
She had her own pride. She was the Eldest Young Lady of the Shen family, a famous beautiful and talented woman, and the Crown Princess of the Empire. She could endure humiliation in order to take revenge, but in a situation where there was no hope of revenge, she could not sell her innocence in order to live.
She believed that when she met her parents and the ancestors of the Shen family in the underworld, they wouldn't blame her. She had already tried her best …
After making this decision, she suddenly relaxed. She had been tense all this time. How many days had it been since she had had a good night's sleep? From now on, she should be able to sleep well.
However, the pain she imagined did not come. Instead, she fell into a warm embrace. She subconsciously looked up and saw a man looking down at her. Even though he was wearing a mask, she could tell from his hair and eyes that he was a relatively young man.
Feeling the masculine aura around him, Shen Bijun's face turned red. Even though she was in a life and death situation, her many years of education had been deeply ingrained into her bones. Just as she was about to push him away, she heard him say, "What's the matter that makes you so depressed?"
"It's you!" Shen Bijun's eyes instantly blurred because she recognized the other party's voice. It was Zhao Weiyi, whom she had been relying on and worrying about all this time!
"Who are you?" The elder frowned and stopped. He didn't continue forward. He had been planning to stop Shen Bijun when he saw that she was about to commit suicide, but someone had been faster than him. It was so fast that he didn't even know how that person had appeared. How could he not be on guard?
"Who I am isn't important. On the other hand, you're someone who has been famous for a long time, yet you're bullying a weak little girl. Aren't you ashamed?" The person who had come was naturally Song Qingshu. He had just arrived when he saw Shen Bijun hit the pillar and had hurriedly tried to save her. He naturally didn't have a good impression of the culprit.
He had recognized this tall and sturdy old man from the very beginning. It was Xiao Feng's father, Xiao Yuanshan. Previously, he had been the inspector of the Imperial Palace, but in the end, Yelu Yixin had used Xiao Zhonghui and Yuan Chengzhi's "affair" as a pretext and had no choice but to admit his mistake and resign. After Xiao Feng had been imprisoned, Yelu Hongji had been worried that Xiao Yuanshan's martial arts would be a disaster. At the same time, he had sent people to capture him, but unfortunately, he had escaped and disappeared without a trace.
There had been one attempt to break into the prison to save Xiao Feng, but Yelu Hongji had already made preparations. Not only had he sent a large number of soldiers to guard the prison, but he had also arranged for many experts, so he had returned without success. Of course, with Xiao Yuanshan's martial arts, it would have been difficult for those people to stop him.
"Those who want to achieve great things don't bother with trifles. Reputation is nothing to this old man." Xiao Yuanshan stared at Shen Bijun in his arms. "This old man needs to use her to exchange for someone else. I won't harm her."
With his usual personality, he wouldn't have bothered to explain so much. However, he had been startled by the other party's movement technique just now and felt a bit of fear. He had no choice but to use a negotiating tone to communicate with the other party.
"Exchange?" Song Qingshu was startled at first, but then he immediately realized that the other party was most likely planning on using Shen Bijun as a hostage to exchange for Xiao Feng. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh. As expected of one of the two famous scammers in the "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils." It had to be known that Shen Bijun had been sent to the palace by Yelu Yixin's people. Now that Yelu Yixin had fallen from power, it was almost inevitable that she would fall out of favor. In the end, Xiao Yuanshan wanted to use someone who was destined to be thrown into the cold palace to exchange for the king of the southern courtyard?
Had he been kicked in the head by a donkey?
But Song Qingshu had really misunderstood him. When Xiao Yuanshan had been the inspector of the palace, he knew that the new Hui Fei was a beauty that could topple cities and could rival the empress. Even though the fall of Yelu Yixin had caused her to lose her support, her most useful beauty was still there. Yelu Hongji was also a lecher. No man would be willing to give up such a beauty that was a disaster. So he could use her to gamble. In any case, it didn't matter if he lost the gamble, he wouldn't lose anything.
Xiao Yuanshan had no other choice but to use this plan. Last time he had broken into the prison, he had alerted the enemy. Right now, the place where Xiao Feng was being held was like an iron wall. Not even a fly could fly in. It was impossible for him to directly rescue Xiao Feng, so he could only place his thoughts on Shen Bijun.
If Song Qingshu knew his true thoughts, he would probably still mock him. He was really so childish at his age. For the Emperor, no matter how beautiful a woman was, she was still a woman. Xiao Feng was an existence that could affect his safety and the throne. How could he release a tiger back into the mountains for a woman? Not to mention the Emperor who had been educated in the ways of the Emperor since he was young, any official who had been in politics for a few years would make this choice without hesitation.
"She is mine, how could I give her to you?" Song Qingshu grabbed Shen Bijun's slender waist and rejected Xiao Yuanshan without hesitation.
Hearing the other say that she was his person, Shen Bijun's face instantly turned red. She thought, how could he say something like that? If it got out, her reputation … … but she quickly reacted. At her current level, she didn't have the qualifications to think about things like reputation.
Looking at the tall figure of the man in front of her, she suddenly felt a sense of security she had never felt before: "This seems … … not bad … …"
Being mercilessly rejected, Xiao Yuanshan's face instantly darkened and a fierce look appeared in his eyes: "Hmph, refusing a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit!" Although his opponent's qinggong was high, his martial arts might not be high. Moreover, looking at all the experts in the world, there were not many that Xiao Yuanshan feared.
As soon as he finished speaking, a long black whip instantly appeared in his hand. It covered the distance of several dozen feet in an instant and enveloped Shen Bijun's body. Clearly, he planned on taking her by surprise.
In Shen Bijun's eyes, she couldn't see the whip at all. She could only see a roaring black dragon charging at her. In that instant, she felt her soul tremble. She felt her hands and feet go cold. Her body couldn't even move, let alone dodge.
"Vajra Demon Subduing Ring?" Song Qingshu coldly laughed. He raised his hand and pointed forward. The roaring black dragon instantly collapsed, turning into a small snake that fell to the ground.
Xiao Yuanshan's expression changed. The Vajra Demon Subduing Ring was the ultimate technique that he had painstakingly trained for the past few decades in Shaolin. How could it be broken in one move?
Just now, the other's finger seemed to have predicted it and pointed at the weakest point of his whip's internal energy conversion. It had to be known that before this, he didn't even realize that there was a flaw in this technique!
His martial arts were this high and he was still so young … … Xiao Yuanshan's mind flashed and he put away his whip. He cupped his hands and said: "So it's Golden Snake King, it was a misunderstanding."
