Chapter 1356: Chapter 1356: No!
“Wuu wuu wuu, you’re lying, who could be more powerful than the captain?” Qin Xueling didn’t care who the other person was, as she cried and wiped her tears and snot all over Dongfang Ao’s body. Dongfang Ao, once the heir of the Dongfang family, wasn’t known to be obsessive about cleanliness, but who would dare to heap dirt on him? He was so disgusted that his whole body shivered.
Huu huu huu!
Desperate to suppress the anger in his heart and that sickening feeling, Dongfang Ao finally couldn’t hold back anymore. He yanked Qin Xueling out of his embrace and flung her away, “Stay as far away from me as possible!”
Qin Xueling was the granddaughter of one of the few Venerables of the Imperial Court in the Raya Empire and was respected wherever she went. At her young age, she was already a Star Spirit Master, but most crucially, she was a veteran of the Iron Blood Mercenary Group, which had elevated her to an incredibly exalted status within her family.
When had Qin Xueling ever been so spurned before?
Caught off guard, Qin Xueling was tossed aside. Fortunately, those sitting nearby were from Huang City and Yan City. Seeing her thrown, they immediately reached out to catch her, preventing a terrible fall.
“Bastard, you damn bastard, how dare you treat me like this?” Qin Xueling hadn’t even steadied herself when she roared back at Dongfang Ao.
Dongfang Ao turned around, his handsome face ashen, his eyes swirling with a dangerous glint. He didn’t say a word, only took two fingers and disdainfully pinched the front of his robe, on which snot and tears were smeared, creating a large, dirty patch that was a far cry from Dongfang Ao’s usual unsullied image—truly a sight for sore eyes.
Qin Xueling was ready to explode with further rage, but upon seeing this scene, she found herself utterly speechless.
“Pfft!” Someone from the crowd of onlookers, who knew who, couldn’t hold back a laugh, and instantly, laughter erupted all around. It was all in good fun, coming from their own people. While the younger generation had their dispute, neither Qin Shuang the Venerable nor Venerable Dongfang Lu wished to interfere on behalf of their juniors. Instead, they exchanged a smile and helplessly shook their heads.
The tension thus dissipated, and the earlier sorrow and the somewhat gloomy atmosphere vanished like smoke. At this moment, everyone’s gaze returned once again to the center of the square and to the light curtain, nothing else could disturb the crowd’s hearts or draw their attention away.
Almost everyone, their entire focus, was fixed on Beiting Huang and Yan Ye, all waiting for Yan Ye’s response.
Waiting for Beiting Huang for ten thousand years, the Devil Emperor must have been anticipating this very moment! Who knows what kind of emotions the Devil Emperor was experiencing upon hearing Beiting Huang’s marriage proposal. Everyone was eager to see the fireworks exploding in the Devil Emperor’s eyes, sparkling like a brilliant cascade of bright stars.
Unfortunately, at that moment, the Divine Veil kept everything tightly concealed, and no one could see Yan Ye’s expression. Just as everyone imagined the man to be overwhelmed with joy, a voice as ethereal as Fanyin sounded from within the veil.
“No, Beiting Huang!”
What? On the square, a hundred thousand people simultaneously stepped forward, those closest to the Divine Veil even disregarded its terrifying pressure, wishing they could rush into it. They had to confront the Devil Emperor, demanding to know why he had said “no.” Could it be that the Devil Emperor was spurning Lord Beiting Huang because he was a man?Nôv(el)B\\jnn
