"Why?" Yun Sheng was shocked.
"Because of my identity …" Donghuang Ling 'er said sadly.
"Ling 'er, you can't be like them, having a prejudice against family background, right?" Yun Sheng was somewhat annoyed.
She was from the modern era, and she looked down on this kind of secular concept of marriage. She had always felt that Donghuang Ling 'er wasn't that kind of person.
"No, you misunderstood what I meant. It's not that I dislike Gufeng, it's just that the two of us aren't suitable for each other. You should know what kind of identity I have. Although I look very dignified on the outside, being the princess of the East Imperial Dynasty, it's just an empty title. I'm more like a puppet. No matter if it's my own marriage or my own future, to put it bluntly, it's not up to me to decide. "Donghuang Ling 'er had a sorrowful expression on her face.
"Since that's the case, you can still fight for it. Just like this time, didn't you also come to the Continent's Magic Elite Camp because …" Yun Sheng still wanted to persuade her.
Donghuang Ling 'er smiled bitterly, "Actually, I lied to you and the Dark Gold class teacher. This time, I came to the Continent's Magic Elite Camp secretly because I wanted to escape from my marriage. "
Escape from marriage?
Yun Sheng obviously didn't expect that Donghuang Ling 'er actually escaped from her marriage.
She then thought about Donghuang Ling 'er's age and immediately understood.
Donghuang Ling 'er was older than Yun Sheng by half a year. In a few more months, she would be 14 years old.
In the Boundless Continent, 14 years old was already the age where one could become a mother.
In ancient times, there wasn't much entertainment. Once the sky turned dark, people would play games like playing in bed. It wasn't rare for a 14-year-old to become a mother in the Boundless Continent.
For a woman from the Boundless Continent like Donghuang Ling 'er, 14 years old was already considered old.
However, due to Donghuang Ling 'er's special identity, she never got married.
Until one and a half years ago, the Left Prime Minister of the Eastern Capital suddenly wrote a letter, saying that the Later Qin's Dark Crown Prince wanted to marry Donghuang Ling 'er.
Dark Crown Prince?
When Yun Sheng heard Dugu Xiu's name, the corner of her mouth couldn't help but twitch.
"Dugu Xiu proposed? He's not a good match. "Yun Sheng imagined Dugu Xiu's fiery temper and Donghuang Ling 'er's unruly temper. If the two of them were to live together, they would definitely fight non-stop every day.
Furthermore, with Donghuang Ling 'er's temperament, she would definitely not be able to tolerate the Dark Crown Prince being such a playboy.
"You know him too! Later Qin's Dark Crown Prince, Dugu Xiu. This person's name is known by everyone in the continent. He is a devil who kills people without batting an eyelid. It is said that he didn't even bat an eyelid when killing the concubines of the Later Qin Emperor. The reason for that was because those concubines were noisy. "When Donghuang Ling 'er talked about this marriage, she was extremely unwilling in her heart." Not only that, I also heard that Dugu Xiu's appearance is very ugly. He has the head of an ox, the face of a horse, and triangular eyes. How can I marry such a person? "
"Cough, cough. Actually, he's not that unbearable. No matter what, he is still one of the Five Extremes and Five Walls. Within the Wuji Five Walls, every single one of them is a handsome man with an outstanding appearance. His appearance is still barely acceptable. "Although Yun Sheng didn't like Dugu Xiu, she couldn't directly discredit him.
Although Dugu Xiu was a bit unreasonable and a bit sinister, his appearance was indeed a handsome man filled with masculinity. Even when compared to Ye Beiming, he was only a bit uglier.
Yun Sheng didn't realize that subconsciously, the scales in her heart had already tilted towards Ye Beiming.
"No matter if he is handsome or ugly or not, it's impossible for me to marry the Crown Prince of Later Qin. However, when Later Qin became powerful, they bribed the Left Prime Minister. The Left Prime Minister and the civil and military officials forced mother and imperial brother to agree to this marriage. "Donghuang Ling 'er was a descendant of the Eastern Imperial Dynasty. She didn't have a good impression of the current five major countries. When the Eastern Imperial Dynasty was split, the first country to rebel was Later Qin.
There were even rumors in the imperial palace that the death of the Emperor of the Eastern Imperial Dynasty was also related to Later Qin.
Under such circumstances, Donghuang Ling 'er was even more unwilling to marry the person who killed her father.
"Therefore, you ran away. However, running away from the marriage is related to the diplomatic relations between the Eastern Capital and the country. Ling 'er, you are too reckless." Yun Sheng was worried.
Zhou State's fate was declining. On the other hand, Later Qin had a strong army and strong horses. Currently, the country's strength was rising day by day.
"Therefore, you ran away from the marriage. However, this matter can be delayed for a while, but it can't be delayed forever. The people in the Eastern Capital will find out sooner or later. Dugu Xiu isn't someone who will let things go easily. "Yun Sheng felt a headache coming on.
"The people in the Eastern Capital, including the Left Prime Minister. They still don't know that I have already escaped to the mainland's Magic Elite Camp. I only managed to escape with the help of my imperial mother and imperial brother. The 'Donghuang Ling' er 'that is currently in the Eastern Capital is one of my personal maids in disguise. She said that I am sick and need to rest for the next two years. Therefore, I won't get married for the time being. "Although Donghuang Ling' er was physically in the Magic Elite Camp, her heart was also in the Eastern Capital.
She would often feel nervous in her heart, fearing that her deception would be seen through if she wasn't careful.
This was also the reason why Donghuang Ling 'er didn't dare to accept Gufeng.
Although Gufeng was a light magician, compared to Later Qin's Dugu Xiu, he was obviously not a match for Dugu Xiu.
Donghuang Ling 'er's identity was special. Her imperial mother had always hoped to find a martial artist as her son-in-law to protect Donghuang Ling' er.
Gufeng, on the other hand, was a light magician. The greatest use of light magic was for defense and healing. In terms of attack, its use was really ordinary.
This was also one of Donghuang Ling 'er's concerns.
Only now did Yun Sheng know that although Donghuang Ling 'er appeared to be carefree on the surface, there were actually so many things hidden in her heart.
The two of them were speechless for a moment as they both thought about their own matters.
In the next few days, Yun Sheng continued to meditate in the cabin during the day. When it was late at night, she would go out to look for flying demonic beasts to test out the power of the Magic Wind Blade.
In the next few days, Yun Sheng comprehended her first dark magic, the Magic Wind Blade, and its power was already comparable to that of a high-grade magic.
At the same time that Yun Sheng was comprehending her magic, in Chen Lian 'er's cabin.
Chen Lian 'er sat down cross-legged. She had her own cabin by herself.
Chen Lian 'er carefully set up an anti-interference magic array around the cabin. After that, she took out an item from her storage ring.
It was a shabby bracelet. She couldn't tell whether it was carved out of wood or bone. On the surface of the bracelet, there were inscriptions that were hard to understand. It was a pity that she couldn't tell what it was just by looking at its appearance.
If it was in the past, Chen Lian 'er would definitely not want such a shabby item.
However, this bracelet had a mysterious power.
"What exactly is this item?" Chen Lian 'er didn't know that she had a treasure that would shock the entire continent.
About half a month ago, Chen Lian 'er and a senior from the Magic Elite Camp entered the Dutian Blood Beast World together.
This wasn't her first time entering the Blood Beast World. However, compared to the previous few times, this was the first time Chen Lian 'er entered the central region of the Dutian Blood Beast World.
Yun Sheng's appearance, to Chen Lian 'er, was like a lump in her throat. It was very uncomfortable.
She had been thinking of ways to get rid of Yun Sheng.
