Liu Yan's mouth was full of bitterness as she stood in the hall. Although her status and position had risen, it seemed like he no longer needed her to drink with him.
Liu Yan felt as if she had lost her direction in life. She had lost the goal that she had worked so hard to achieve.
Now, she no longer needed to drink with anyone. Given Liu Yan's status and position, besides Yan Guilai, no one else had the right to make her drink with him.
However, the problem now was that Yan Guilai didn't seem to need her anymore. He seemed to be drinking to his heart's content by himself.
Liu Yan sat in a daze at the spot where Yan Guilai had been drinking. She sat there motionlessly, unable to regain her senses for a long time.
At the same time, in Nanming City, the Great Chu royalty's Imperial City …
Ye Ling was filled with anger as she flew directly into the Imperial City and headed straight for the main hall of the Imperial City.
According to the rules, no one was allowed to fly in the Imperial City. Otherwise, it would be the greatest disrespect and provocation to the Great Chu royalty!
However, Ye Ling was really angry. She didn't care about those stupid rules and rushed in directly.
Ye Ling was so angry because the Great Chu royalty had tried to assassinate Yan Guilai. This was only part of the reason.
The other part was that Ye Ling couldn't take it anymore.
Aoki University had originally been under the management of Dongfang Tianxiu. Unfortunately, although Dongfang Tianxiu was the direct descendant of the Lingmu Emperor, he really didn't know anything about alchemy.
Over the past 100 years, Dongfang Tianxiu had only thought about plundering resources and misappropriating the huge sum of money allocated by the Great Chu royalty. He had no intention of developing the alchemy industry.
Over the past few decades, Dongfang Tianxiu had completely destroyed the alchemy profession, which was already weak to begin with.
It wasn't until ten years ago that the Great Chu royalty suddenly realized that if they allowed Dongfang Tianxiu to continue being corrupt, the entire Great Chu royalty would be in danger!
With no other choice, the Great Chu royalty had no choice but to let go of the power in their hands. They removed Dongfang Tianxiu from his position as the dean and let Ye Ling take over Aoki University.
After Ye Ling's hard work, Aoki University had finally recovered its initial strength in the past ten years. However, the Great Chu royalty had actually caused such a scene!
In order to protect Chu Xingtian's throne, they actually sent people to assassinate Yan Guilai!
Putting aside the fact that there was no relationship between Yan Guilai and Chu Xingyun, as the number one seed with the highest points in this year's Green Wood National Examination, was he someone the Great Chu royalty could kill just because they wanted to?
Indeed, during the first round of the National Examination, Yan Guilai had almost killed Chu Xingtian. However, who had instigated all of this?
It was clearly Yan Guilai who had become the champion. However, Chu Xingtian had refused to accept it and wanted to challenge Chu Xingyun.
At that time, Ye Ling had also considered the Great Chu royalty's face and tacitly agreed to this challenge. One had to know that … according to logic, the rules were the rules. How could the rules be changed just because Chu Xingtian was the descendant of the Great Chu royalty?
Ye Ling had tolerated Chu Xingtian's tyrannical and domineering behavior. This face … she had sold it to the Great Chu royalty.
However, in the following battle, who would have thought that Yan Guilai would almost kill Chu Xingtian? Who would have thought that Chu Xingtian's heart was on the right side?!
After that match, Ye Ling had personally treated Chu Xingtian. She had even … in order to allow Chu Xingtian to participate in the next round of the examination in his peak condition, Ye Ling had even changed the rules.
Originally, there was no need to rest for three days after the first round of the examination.
One had to know that for over ten thousand examinees to rest for three days in Southlight City, the expenditure was extremely large. To the examinees and their parents, it was extremely disadvantageous.
However, in order to take care of the Great Chu's face, in order to take care of Chu Xingtian, Ye Ling had clenched her teeth and compromised. She had forcibly postponed the next round of the examination to three days later.
However, even though she had conceded so many times, the Great Chu royalty was still unwilling to forgive her. They had actually attempted to assassinate Yan Guilai. This was simply too excessive.
On this side, Ye Ling had given her all for the sake of humanity and for the sake of the Great Chu royalty. It could be said that she had given her all until her death …
However, it was one thing for the Great Chu royalty to sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor. Now, they were actually trying to wreak havoc. How could they do things like this?
Too much anger and too much resentment had accumulated. Even someone as good-tempered as Ye Ling could not help but explode.
After flying for a while, Ye Ling landed outside the Royal City's main hall.
The moment she landed, two armed guards on both sides of the Grand Hall widened their eyes in anger and shouted, "How dare you! How dare you fly within the Imperial City! Kneel down and surrender! "
Hmph!
With a cold snort, Ye Ling said in a low voice, "You only know how to throw your weight around and put on airs every day. Other than this, what else can you do? A bunch of vermin … "
Faced with Ye Ling's merciless scolding, the two armed guards were instantly enraged. They had been guarding here for decades and had never seen anyone so daring!
Clang!
Amidst the intense sounds of swords, the two guards drew their swords at the same time. The cold tips of their swords pointed straight at Ye Ling!
Seeing the two guards draw their swords at her, Ye Ling was so angry that she reached out a trembling hand and pointed at them, saying, "Why are you behaving so atrociously towards me? If you have the ability, go to the front lines and draw your swords against the Demon Clan. Even if you lose or even die in battle, I will still respect you as men! "
Faced with Ye Ling's angry scolding, the two armed guards were instantly terrified.
It was only at this moment that they finally remembered that Ye Ling was not someone they could bully and humiliate and throw their weight around as they pleased.
Over the past hundred years, Ye Ling had risked her life to contend with the Demon Clan at the front lines. She had even faced the Demon Clan's Emperor and had even defeated him. What were they to her?
Enough! All of you, leave …
At this moment, a deep scolding voice rang out from within the grand hall.
Hearing this voice, the two armed guards could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. They sheathed their swords and respectfully retreated to the two sides of the grand hall's doors.
Patter … patter …
Amidst the crisp sound of footsteps, a tall and burly young man of about twenty to thirty years of age with an incomparably handsome face and dressed in royal robes walked out proudly.
Stepping out of the grand hall, the young man in royal robes looked coldly at Ye Ling and said, "Ye Ling, I have always respected you very much but today, you have disappointed me greatly!"
With a cold laugh, Ye Ling said, "Chu Wuqing … It is not important whether you are disappointed in me or not. What is important is that my patience with you has reached its limit. I can no longer tolerate you."
Faced with Ye Ling's words, Chu Wuqing's face immediately turned ashen. He said in a deep voice, "Ye Ling, please do not become arrogant just because you are favored. The dignity of the Great Chu royalty is not something you can wantonly slander!"
The Great Chu royalty?
Ye Ling curled her lips in disdain and said, "Don't even mention the Great Chu royalty. Even if Big Brother Chu was here right now, I would still say the same thing!"
Hearing Ye Ling mention Chu Xingyun, Chu Wuqing immediately clenched his teeth and said coldly, "Don't mention that heartless man who abandoned his wife. Our Great Chu royalty does not have such a person!"
Ye Ling extended a trembling hand and pointed at Chu Wuqing without any trace of politeness. She said angrily, "If it were not for Big Brother Chu, what would your Great Chu royalty be worth? Don't forget that the Great Chu royalty was established by us seven great generals under Big Brother Chu's orders. "
