"Mmm …" Ningxue was soon woken up. She opened her eyes, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and said in a daze, "Brother, have we arrived?"
"Not yet. You must be hungry now. What do you want to eat? "Ye Wuchen asked lovingly.
Ningxue did not answer immediately. Instead, she used her sleepiness to ask the question that she had been suppressing for a long time, "Can we really take my sister back?"
"Of course." Ye Wuchen said with a smile, "However, it may be very dangerous. Cher, just close your eyes and don't be afraid, understand?"
He was going to Dafeng Country to take her, not to ask for her, nor to negotiate. The only way for him to go there was to use force. The so-called contract between Long Yin and Dafeng Country was just a joke in his eyes. If Dafeng Country really dared to attack Tenryū Province, they would first have to be warned by Nanhuangzong. Even if Nanhuangzong remained silent and the two countries went to war, what did that have to do with him? He never wanted to be a so-called hero. He only wanted to use his own strength to protect everyone important to him. Nothing else mattered. At most, he would try his best to resolve the situation with his own strength when necessary.
"Brother … Am I very useless? I can only be a burden to you every time … But I don't want to be separated from you at all." Ningxue pouted and looked sad. She had always known that if she stuck to his side, not only would she not be able to help or protect him like Tong Xin, she would only be a burden.
Ye Wuchen rubbed her little face and pretended to scold her, "Don't say such silly things again, or I will really be angry. Do you still remember that if it wasn't for you, I would have passed away a long time ago? You will never be a burden to me, understand? "
Ningxue did not answer. She shrunk her body into his arms. The air outside had indeed started to become cold. Only her brother's arms were the most comfortable and gentle in the world.
After a short rest, Ye Wuchen bought a horse in the village and galloped westward.
After dusk came the deep night, and then the wee hours of the morning. During this period, every time they came across a village or town, Ye Wuchen would change horses as fast as he could. In the long night, his whole body was soaked with dew, but he still felt that time passed too fast, and the horse ran too slowly.
Early in the morning, when the sun was high up in the sky, they were finally getting closer and closer to Wind City. The east side of the Great Wind Nation was not much different from the Tenryū Province, except that the air was obviously a bit dry. At noon, Ye Wuchen, who was burning with anxiety, finally saw Tianfeng City. He heaved a long sigh of relief.
Back then, Feng Ling used Feng Zhaoyang's power to travel from Tianfeng City to Tianlong City in less than three days, which was already shocking enough. However, Ye Wuchen used only one day and one night. It could only be described as shocking. He mainly relied on Oculum's terrifying speed.
At this moment, with a neigh, the horse under him suddenly staggered and fell forward heavily. Ye Wuchen quickly carried Ning Xue and leaped to the ground. He did not dare to stay any longer. He patted the horse that was panting heavily on the ground and twitching all over, "You've worked hard. Have a good rest."
"Help … Sob sob, big brother, save me …"
When Ye Wuchen was about to move forward, he suddenly heard a little girl's cry for help. The voice was soft and delicate, delicate and delicate. Ye Wuchen was so anxious that he did not notice that there was a person beside him.
He looked sideways and found a petite figure sitting in the withered grass on the side of the road. Because the withered grass was too tall and the girl's body was too small, it was almost completely covered by the withered grass. It was difficult for passersby to find her if they did not pay attention.
Ye Wuchen hesitated for a moment, and finally softened. He walked over. He found that it was indeed a little girl. She was about the same age as Ningxue. Her clothes were torn in a few places, and she had two delicate braids on her head. Her little face was pink and cute, but there were a few tear stains on it that were about to dry. She sat there hugging her right leg and softly cried out in pain. She looked pitifully at Ye Wuchen.
"Big brother, she seems to be injured. Let's help her, okay?" Ningxue knew that they had urgent matters to attend to, but her soft heart did not allow her to ignore an injured girl who looked the same age as her.
"Big brother, my leg hurts … Can you take me home …" The little girl's eyes were still covered with tears, and she was about to cry.
One of her legs was severely twisted, as if it had been dislocated by a great force, but it was not a big deal. Ye Wuchen did not want to delay, nor did he ask her. He quickly squatted down and pressed his hand on her leg. With a twist of his wrist, the little girl cried out in pain and moved her ankle back to its original position with a "kacha" sound. Then, Ye Wuchen released his power and healed the injured part, completely erasing her pain and discomfort.
Ye Wuchen stood up and looked at the girl who had her eyes wide open and was touching her right leg in disbelief. He said, "It's fine now. Hurry up and go home. Don't run so far away by yourself in the future."
"Ah … Thank you, big brother. Big brother, can you tell me your name … Ah! Big brother! "
Before she could finish her words, Ye Wuchen had already left like a gust of wind and disappeared in front of her. She could only stare at his back in a daze, as if she was scared silly.
When their figures disappeared from her sight, the expression on the little girl's face suddenly disappeared. In its place was a cold and indifferent expression. Slowly, she stood up and looked in the direction where they had left. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, revealing a chilling smile. "It's indeed the two of them. One has lost her power, while the other's power has decreased greatly …"
"But, what kind of power did that person use just now?"
Tianfeng City was bustling with people coming and going. When Ye Wuchen and the other two unfamiliar faces entered the city, they were not questioned, but when they walked on the street, they could not help but raise the eyebrows of the passersby.
The air here was drier than Tianlong City, and the buildings and clothes were not as luxurious as Tianlong City. Ye Wuchen had been listening to the conversations of the passersby with rapt attention, and his eyebrows furrowed. It was indeed the right decision for him to rush here as fast as he could, day and night. Yesterday, Ye Shuiyao had come here, and today, she was going to marry the crown prince.
He randomly grabbed a passerby and asked coldly, "Where is the palace?"
To the people of Tianfeng City, this was common sense. Before the passerby could react, he subconsciously pointed in the direction of the palace.
Ye Wuchen let go of him and hurried in the direction of the palace. He knew that there was still time.
Sister, since your choice is wrong, then let me help you make the most correct choice.
The Gale Imperial Palace was decorated with lanterns and streamers, and the atmosphere was harmonious. Guests from all over came to the palace. The crown prince's wedding was not a small matter. However, due to the lack of time, most of the guests were from Tianfeng City.
Luanfeng Hall was the wedding venue of the Gale Imperial Palace. Usually, apart from the princes and grandsons, only those who had been appointed by the emperor were qualified to hold weddings here and entertain guests from all over.
At this time, in front of Ye Shuiyao's Yao Feng Pavilion, bells and drums were ringing, and lion dances were like a tide. In front of the door, there were five palanquins, three red and two blue. The first one was for Ye Shuiyao. The palanquin was covered with red curtains and green lids, with auspicious dragons and phoenixes on it, and golden silk tassels hanging from its four corners. The other four palanquins were, according to custom, two red palanquins were for the bride and groom escorts, and two blue palanquins were covered with blue woolen cloth with copper crowns for the bridegroom and groomsmen.
The noisy and festive sounds disturbed the peace of the Yao Feng Pavilion. Ye Shuiyao had been waiting for a long time like a wooden figure. She was dressed in her wedding dress, and her head was covered with a bright red veil. She knew that this day would come. Although it came much earlier than she had expected, she did not panic. Instead, she was strangely calm, like a pool of stagnant water.
From the moment she left Heavenly Dragon City, her heart seemed to have died, and her life became blank. Everything in the past, happiness, sadness, reluctance, apathy … had already become the past that could not be returned. In this new country, everything about her was … zero. It was as if she had suddenly arrived at a completely unrelated world from one world.
The bride escorts had been persuading her for a long time, but she still did not move. She was confused about what was at the end of this road. Just when the maid said that she was tired, she suddenly stood up and walked towards the door. Her expression was still as cold as before, like a green lotus in the turbid world.
The door was pushed open, and Ye Shuiyao, who was dressed in bright red, walked out. Feng Ling, who had been waiting outside, was overjoyed. Two maids, who were also dressed in red, hurriedly came forward and helped her into the palanquin.
"Hmph, what a big attitude. You took so long to come out." Beside Feng Ling, a woman who insisted on coming with him to escort the bride coldly snorted. Her name was Feng Ru, and she looked to be in her twenties. She was Feng Ling's biological younger sister. Although she was a woman, she was quite sturdy, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. Between her brows, there was a fierce and fierce aura. She was usually very dependent on Feng Ling and only listened to him. However, their personalities were worlds apart. This was also the reason why a dignified princess like her was still unmarried.
Feng Ling glared at her fiercely, and she only shut up and turned her face away in a huff.
Under the accompaniment of gongs and drums, suona, and lion dance, the palanquin finally began its journey to the Luan Feng Palace.
At the same time, there was a huge commotion in front of the palace.
"Stop, this is an important place in the palace. Unauthorized people are not allowed to enter." A majestic guard blocked in front of Ye Wuchen and looked at him with a vigilant expression. They were familiar with the people who often entered the palace, so how could they allow a new face like Ye Wuchen to enter?
Ye Wuchen maintained his composure and said politely, "Little brother, can I trouble you to inform them that the Yeh family of Tenryū Province has specially sent someone to attend the Crown Prince's wedding?"
"Do you have a document?" The guard was unmoved and asked coldly.
"No." Ye Wuchen frowned and his voice became low. At the same time, he took a step forward and directly pushed the guard away. He then quickly walked inside.
"How dare you!" The guard roared. More than ten people beside him also rushed forward and raised their swords to block in front of Ye Wuchen.
Ye Wuchen did not stop and used an indifferent voice to give the first order to kill to Oculum, "Whoever stops me will die!"
As soon as Ye Wuchen's voice fell, a cold red line shot out. In a flash of red light, a red line appeared on the necks of the three people who blocked in front of Ye Wuchen. Then, they widened their eyes in fear and fell backward.
