“You don’t know how afraid I was of seeing disgust on your face. I was afraid I couldn’t bear it, so I chose to avoid it.”
I’m sorry for making you suffer,” he held her tightly, the feeling of regaining her bringing him indescribable happiness.
“Ling Feng—” Lan Lan embraced the man who made her happy, determined never to let him leave again.
Dragon Horse Mountain.
Long Junhao led the Dark Hall’s people while Long Yun brought three thousand troops from the city lord to surround Dragon Horse Mountain, killing all bandits without mercy and reaching the deepest part of the bandits’ nest.
Long Junhao’s face filled with dark murderous intent as he looked at Lin Hai sprawled on the ground.
“Go pour water to wake him up!” Someone brought a bucket and splashed water on Lin Hai.
Lin Hai opened his eyes, dazed and confused about his surroundings. Upon seeing the fierce faces above him, he turned pale.
“Tell me! Where is the Princess?” Long Lei demanded.
“The Princess, hehe, Royal Prince, your luck with beauties is truly deep! Just one encounter left me reminiscing!” he shamelessly rambled, determined not to let this couple escape even if he were to die.
“Shut up!” Long Lei slapped him with the sword.
“Let’s see how useful you are. Long Lei, take action!” Long Junhao commanded.
With a scream, Lin Hai’s lower body was destroyed, removing the seed that harmed others.
Long Lei sealed his acupoints to stop the bleeding.
“Anything else to say?” Long Junhao coldly asked, looking at the man lying on the ground. Seeing no response, he turned to Long Lei, “It’s up to you. Find him a better destination.”
“Master, we’ve searched everywhere but can’t find the Princess. Could she have already escaped?” Long Yun cautiously guessed.
“Possibly. Search the mountain again,” Long Junhao replied, his frustration mounting as several hours passed with no results.
Just then, Fu Xinan entered.
He knelt and said, “Master, the Princess has returned to the post station. I’m here to invite you back!”
“Really? How did she return?” Long Junhao asked, his spirits lifting, then wondered if someone had rescued her.
