Chapter 30 Lei Zichen
Lei Zichen's crazed expression as he had his claws open, ready to attack Bing Tong was unexpected.
No one in the Moon Bazaar nor his uncle, Lei Yong would expect Lei Zichen to go crazy that he would be trying to attack Bing Tong.
After all, attacking the princess of the Northern Continent was equivalent to asking for their whole nine generations to be annihilated.
"Stop it, Lei Zichen," Lei Yong screamed in panic as he wanted Lei Zichen to reconsider the consequences.
However, it was too late when his claws were nearing Bing Tong as Lei Yong closed his eyes and cursed inwardly.
Everyone else also closed their eyes as they were too late to stop it because even if they tried to use their movement speed or cultivation base to suppress Lei Zichen, they still wouldn't make it in time.
BAM!
No one dared to witness this scene as they all knew their life is going to be over now.
"It's over, Lei Zichen, this scum has ruined all of our lives."
"We were just trying to shop in the Moon Bazaar. Why did we have to encounter a no-brainer Lei Zichen?"
Everyone cursed loudly as they slowly opened their eyes to see what happened.
They held a gawking expression when they realized Bing Tong remained unscathed and the person that crashed into a wall was Lei Zichen.
However, the most surprising thing was Lei Zichen's face. His face was marked with a shoe print and his jaw seemed to be dislocated.
Their eyes soon turned to focus on the person with his leg raised up and they were dumbstruck to see it was Jiang Ming.
"Why didn't you suppress that fool yourself, Bing Tong?" Jiang Ming lowered his leg as he asked her.
"You could have easily destroyed that fool or even dodged aside but you simply sat still in the chair." He then continued.
Bing Tong gave a rare smile at Jiang Ming as she shook her head.
"Why would I be resisting when I know you would protect me?"
"Well, what if I didn't protect you and simply did nothing like the rest of the crowd? Your life would have been over by then."
Jiang Ming wasn't confused or surprised by Bing Tong's action. In fact, he knew exactly why she didn't move aside but he wanted her to say it aloud.
Bing Tong also knew that Jiang Ming wanted her to admit it herself so she decided to give in.
'Since you have the advantage then I shall give it to you for now.' Bing Tong exclaimed inwardly as she smiled at Jiang Ming.
"I have full trust in you so it's obvious that I wouldn't flinch a bit." Bing Tong then said and continued, "A trash like Lei Zichen is someone that you could easily handle at ease."
Afterward, she waved her hands toward the imperial guards who quickly snapped out of their daze as they walked toward Lei Zichen and apprehended him.
"P-Princess Bing Tong, please forgive the Lei Clan. O-Our Lei Clan has nothing to do with that scum, Lei Zichen." Lei Yong quickly banged his head as he hurriedly pleaded for their innocence.
If words of this incident were to get to the emperor's ear, Lei Yong knew his entire clan would be exterminated today.
Thus, he wanted to quickly pacify Bing Tong and assure her that Lei Zichen had no relationship with the Lei Clan and that his action today was all done by him and him only.
Bing Tong's expression turned into a cold one as she glared at Lei Yong.
Lei Yong shuddered as he became frightened by Bing Tong's aura that seemed to pierce through his bones.
"I was going to let your Lei Clan off easily with just the death of Lei Zichen. However, your Lei Clan is really good, they managed to produce an heir that has the nerve to go against the imperial family." Bing Tong said in a calm tone but anyone with eyes could tell it was anything but calm.
"P-Princess Bing Tong, please forgive our Lei Clan for our centuries of service," Lei Yong banged his head over and over again as he pleaded.
Blood could be seen seeping out from his forehead as each bang of his was loud and thunderous.
However, Bing Tong remained nonchalant as she tilted her head to look at Jiang Ming.
"Are you going to come to my house tonight?" Bing Tong asked.
Jiang Ming nodded his head.
"You can lead the way, Bing Tong." Jiang Ming said as he leaned closer to her ears and whispered, "You can rest assured that your imperial family will receive another Spiritual Master rank technique."
Bing Tong smiled as she walked outside the Moon Bazaar, followed by Jiang Ming and Hong Ling.
At the same time, the imperial guards started dragging Lei Zichen's body without any care if he got damaged in the process.
Lei Yong wasn't off the hook either as the imperial guards came to drag his arms. Lei Yong wanted to resist but he knew it would be futile since the imperial guards aren't some nobodies where he could fend them off.
While Bing Tong started guiding Jiang Ming to the imperial family's house, the crowd was even more shocked to see the princess walking with a man.
Including the fact that the imperial guards are dragging people from the Lei Clan.
"Isn't that Lei Zichen? How come he has a shoe print on his face?" A person from the crowd shouted in disbelief.
"Idiot, can't you tell by the look of things here? Clearly, that Lei Zichen's arrogance has caused a huge problem today. He's being carried by the imperial guards and who do you think controls them?"
The commotion was turning bigger as Bing Tong had no intention of hiding the fact that she was punishing Lei Zichen and Lei Yong.
News traveled fast in the Central District and soon, the emperor received the news of this incident.
