In the Everpeace Marquis Manor, Qing'er was holding onto Qin Wentian's hand. The gazes of everyone in the surroundings froze, and the people from the Everpeace Marquis Manor felt their faces burning. They had been slandering Princess Qing'er's lover right in front of her. No wonder she would be so enraged, and no wonder she would slap Madam Qin Wentian thrice. Because, Princess Qing'er and the young man before them were lovers.
Qin Wentian, the top ranker of the Immortal Ascension Rankings.
Qin Wentian, he was in love with Princess Qing'er.
Would she verbally disrespect Sharlyn?
Talent, beauty, status, what did Sharlyn have to compare with Princess Qing'er?
In addition, as long as the crowd wasn't a fool, they would understand that although Sharlyn's status wasn't too bad, and she was the golden daughter of the Everpeace Marquis Manor, given Qin Wentian's talent as the top ranker of the Immortal Ascension Rankings, there would definitely be immortal emperors willing to accept him. Such a character was more than enough to be a match for someone like Sharlyn. If Qin Wentian's brain wasn't damaged, why would he verbally disrespect her?
Such a slanderous lie was extremely laughable at this moment. This was especially so for Sharlyn. She only felt a burning sensation on her face, as though she had also been slapped. How laughable. Earlier, she had called Qin Wentian a dog slave.
This entire space abruptly fell silent. Right now, it was easy to determine who was right and who was wrong. Sharlyn had slandered Princess Qing'er's lover, and had even used demonic beasts to surround and kill him. If one looked at it in a serious manner, this could be considered an act of treason. Even if Qin Wentian wasn't Princess Qing'er's lover, and was merely a friend, he wasn't someone Sharlyn could slander and kill. This was simply a slap to the face of Princess Qing'er.
The Everpeace Marquis Madam had slapped Princess Qing'er a few times in vain.
Qin Wentian had a cold smile on his face as he watched everything. He also didn't expect that in a mere manor in the Evergreen Kingdom, these people would almost take his life. This was what it meant to be a marquis with great authority. They didn't place anyone in their eyes, including Qing'er.
Before this, when Xia Fan and Marquis Madam Qin Wentian tried to kill Qin Wentian, they had already taken Qing'er's existence into consideration. They still wanted to act first and report later. Once he died, there would be no evidence, and they could pin all the blame on him.
Qing'er's anger had yet to dissipate. If Qin Wentian died, she would have thought. But here, this place was the Everpeace Marquis Manor, the Everpeace with the Everpeace Marquis. Qin Wentian Peace Marquis Palace was Qing'er Fan's Qin and she had Marquis Manor. Qin Fan Marquis Qin Wentian Marquis Sect Manor.
How could Qing'er Marquis Qin Wentian rest so easily?
Qing'er's Cold eyes landed on Sharlyn. "Sharlyn, you first slandered Qin Wentian, then you joined forces with Xia Fan to kill Qin Wentian. And then, Marquis Madam Yun, despite my orders to stop, you still attacked Qin Wentian, wanting to kill him. In your eyes, you have no respect for me, the Princess, no respect for the Evergreen Kingdom, and no respect for my father. How are you going to punish me for this crime?"
As Qing'er finished speaking, her cold eyes stared at Marquis Madam Qin Wentian. Hearing her words, the experts of the Everpeace Marquis Manor broke out in a cold sweat. This crime was indeed more serious. Moreover, it was obvious that Princess Qing'er did not intend to let this matter rest. She even brought up the name of the Evergreen Kingdom and the Changqing The Great.
The lips of Marquis Madam Qin Wentian twitched, her countenance extremely ugly. Right now, she had no reason to refute Qing'er's words.
"Sharlyn, are you the one who slandered the Princess' friend?" Marquis Madam Qin Wentian coldly spoke. Right now, she could only endure with all her might. Other than this, what else could she do? Fall out with the Princess? If that was the case, there would be no room for negotiation. If she fell out with the daughter of the Great Emperor, even her father, the Cloud King, wouldn't be able to protect her.
"Mother." Sharlyn's countenance paled as she spoke. "Earlier, Qin Wentian was indeed disrespectful towards me. That was why I acted out of anger. Even if he is the Princess' lover, his character cannot be questioned."
Right now, Sharlyn could only endure with all her might. Otherwise, she would be accused of slandering the Princess.
Qing'er and Qin Wentian both coldly laughed. Only to see Marquis Madam Qin Wentian speaking, "Princess, earlier, I acted out of anger without investigating the truth. It is this subordinate's fault. However, the Princess has already punished this subordinate. As for this matter, this subordinate will definitely find out who is in the right and who is in the wrong. At that time, I will give the Princess an explanation."
Right now, the best solution for Marquis Madam Qin Wentian was to drag this matter out and send Qing'er away.
"You also know that you acted without investigating the truth, yet you are so protective of the Princess. Do you want me to wait for you to investigate? Is this a joke? " Qin Wentian laughed. Qing'er also spoke, "Let me ask you one more time. Are you going to give me an explanation or not?"
Qing'er didn't like to speak, nor did she like to cause trouble. But this time around, for the sake of Qin Wentian, she had to stand out no matter what.
A mere Marquis Madam Qin Wentian actually dared to kill Qin Wentian. If she brought Qin Wentian into the Royal Palace, how much pressure would Qin Wentian have to face? This was something she couldn't endure.
"Qin Wentian is the Princess' lover, the Princess naturally trusts him. However, this doesn't represent the truth. At the very least, you have to give me an opportunity to investigate this matter." Marquis Madam Qin Wentian still refused to admit her guilt.
Qing'er stepped out, moving towards Sharlyn. This scene caused the countenance of Marquis Madam Qin Wentian to freeze, as well as Sharlyn.
"BOOM!" A powerful spatial fluctuation gushed forth as Qing'er directly appeared in front of Sharlyn. She lifted her hand and grabbed Sharlyn. Instantly, a terrifying spatial energy enveloped Sharlyn, causing the countenances of those from the Everpeace Marquis Manor to drastically change. However, even Marquis Madam Qin Wentian didn't do anything to stop her. If she did, she would have to act against Qing'er. If that was the case, things would only worsen.
"Since you want to protect me, I can only do it myself. Me and Qin Wentian came to the Everpeace Marquis Manor as a guest, yet Qin Wentian was slandered and almost killed. Sharlyn offended my superior and killed my friend. This is a crime worthy of death." Qing'er's icy voice rang out. Sharlyn stared at that pair of Cold eyes. She finally felt fear as her body trembled.
"Princess, my father, the Cloud King, has contributed so much to the Everpeace Marquis Manor. Could it be that Princess only believes in your own judgment and wants to kill my daughter and the granddaughter of the Cloud King, causing the hearts of the other nobles to turn cold?" The Everpeace Marquis Madam used the Cloud King and the Everpeace Marquis Manor as an excuse to suppress Qing`er.
"Because of the Cloud King's battle achievements, because of the contributions of the Everpeace Marquis Manor, all of you can kill my friend in front of me. If your contributions were even greater, wouldn't you be able to kill me in front of my father?" As the sound of Qing`er's voice rang out, the hearts of everyone present trembled. Her words were truly ruthless.
"BOOM!" A violent spatial energy gushed forth from Qing'er, causing the countenances of the crowd to drastically change. Marquis Madam Qin Wentian roared, "Princess!"
"Princess, please stay your hand." A thunderous voice rang out in the air as an imposing silhouette appeared, instantly descending from the sky. His eyes stared fixedly at Qing'er and Sharlyn as he spoke, "Everpeace Marquis has failed to educate his daughter properly and will definitely punish her severely. Princess, please spare her life."
Qing'er turned her head and stared at Marquis Qin Wentian. Her aura didn't restrain at all, and the coldness in her eyes grew even more intense. She stared at Marquis Qin Wentian as she icily spoke, "Seclusion? So it turns out that Marquis Everpeace has always been watching your daughter slandering Qin Wentian, watching them join forces to kill Qin Wentian, watching as your madam tried to kill him without distinguishing between right and wrong. What a good Everpeace Marquis Manor! "
As she spoke, Qing'er's long hair fluttered in the wind as her aura grew colder to the extreme. Marquis Everpeace's countenance drastically changed. After which, Qing'er's palm pressed down as boundless spatial energy blasted forth. Sharlyn inclined her head, her long hair fluttered in the wind as a scream of misery rang out from her mouth. At this instant, the faces of everyone were as pale as paper.
"Sharlyn." Marquis Madam stepped out, directly appearing beside Qing'er. A terrifying might gushed forth from her, boring down on Qing'er. However, Qing'er merely inclined her head and stared at her. Would Marquis Madam dare to act?
Marquis Marquis Madam also appeared, pulling on her arm, telling her to endure. If she really acted against the princess, that would be equivalent to rebelling. If the Everpeace Marquis Manor were to blame her, they would be annihilated in the blink of an eye.
"Princess, are you satisfied now?" Marquis Madam's voice trembled as she stared at Sharlyn who was slowly collapsing to the ground.
Qing'er stared at her as she slowly spoke, "You should be thankful that you met the current me. If I had sufficient strength, all those who dared to act against Qin Wentian today would all be annihilated …"
"Including you!"
Qing'er stared at the Marquis Madam. Her domineering and cold voice caused her to feel a chill run down her spine. She could clearly feel the determination of the princess. She finally understood that Sharlyn was wrong, extremely wrong. Given the status of Qin Wentian in the heart of the princess, if she had sufficient strength, she would definitely raze the entire Marquis Manor to the ground.
However, Sharlyn purposely slandered and even acted to kill Qin Wentian. How could she live?
"This person cannot be antagonized." Those from the Everpeace Marquis Manor stared at Qin Wentian as they silently mused in their hearts. If they dared to touch him, it would be akin to touching the reverse scale of the princess.
"Everpeace Marquis, I order you to immediately activate the teleportation array and send me to the royal palace." Qing'er stared at the Marquis as she spoke.
The countenance of the Marquis stiffened as he stiffly replied, "Yes, Princess."
After speaking, he turned and soared into the air, with Qing'er and Qin Wentian following behind. Qin Wentian stretched out his hands, grabbing onto Qing'er tightly. He naturally understood that the reason why Qing'er was so domineering was all because of him.
Not only for the sake of the Everpeace Marquis Manor, but also for the sake of the royal palace. Qin Wentian would be able to establish a foothold in the land of nobility, preventing others from offending him. If not, even the Everpeace Marquis Manor dared to take his life, who would still care about Qin Wentian in the royal palace?
At the location of the teleportation array, a bright light flashed as it was activated. Qin Wentian and Qing'er stepped into it, and an intense spatial fluctuation erupted forth as the two of them vanished from sight.
At the instant they disappeared, a terrifying aura gushed forth from the Marquis, transforming into a terrifying tempest. His silhouette flickered, and in the blink of an eye, he returned to the place where Sharlyn had fallen. Only to see that at this moment, the entire place was deathly silent. The Marquis Madam hugged Sharlyn's corpse as she coldly stated, "I want to bring Sharlyn to the royal palace."
The hearts of everyone shuddered, they knew what the Madam wanted to do. She wanted to complain to the Cloud King!
