Chapter 74: His Fury

  Chapter 63 His Frenzy

  His hand, which had been resting on her chin, suddenly moved to her jade neck. "I don't mind letting you know the consequences of provoking me." Thinking that she was no longer a virgin, thinking of the only person who could have taken her virginity... The image of her entwined with Murong Lingyun seemed to float before his eyes, and the anger in his heart surged up, while his hand on her neck involuntarily tightened, almost strangling her to death.

  This woman, how dare she insult him like this? He absolutely won't...

  "If, Your Highness's dignity requires killing a weak woman like me to prove it, then I don't have anything to be concerned about." Her cold eyes stared at him stubbornly, but her heart was secretly tense. She couldn't die; if she died, what would happen to her two-year-old daughter? She could abandon Murong Lingyun, but she couldn't abandon her own daughter, even though the child was an unwelcome accident. Since she had brought the girl into this world, she had a duty to raise her well.

  So no matter what difficulties she faces, as long as she thinks of Bao'er, she tells herself that she must be strong.

  Xuanyuan Cheng's eyes widened slightly, and the hand on her neck also paused involuntarily, stopping the uncontrolled force he had just applied. He stared straight into her eyes, where a flash of ruthlessness quickly flickered, "Good, very good, you're indeed bold enough to threaten me." She was the first person to dare say such words to him in this situation.

  Her eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of her lips curled up into a cold sneer. "Fine, I'll play along with you until the end." The hand embedded in her neck slowly loosened, and his long fingers slid across her cheek, causing her to tremble slightly. "I'd like to see what other tricks you have up your sleeve."

  Accompany him to the end? She didn't know how long she could hold on in front of this man, but what she had to do now was to desperately conceal the truth that absolutely couldn't be let known.

  She didn't dare to show off in front of him, all she could do was try not to provoke him, best if she could ignore him, but looking at his current state, this idea seemed too ridiculous.

  His hand had let go, but he hadn't gotten up, his entire body was still pressed against hers, only deliberately not looking at her smooth jade-like arm, his cold eyes glanced over her body, and the slightly lowered corners of his eyes made it impossible to see any emotion.

  Ling Feng's heart was still hanging high, and he didn't know what to do next. But he just wouldn't get up or move, making the whole atmosphere gloomy and eerie.

  Suddenly, his hand slid down her neck and grasped her chest fiercely, without any gentle tenderness. He said harshly, "Since you've married me, you should fulfill your duty." A single word, 'duty', defined her position, and the responsibility he spoke of was merely a tool for him to vent his desires.

  His hands roamed freely over her body, leaving rough and cruel marks wherever they went on her pure white skin.

  His rudeness was obviously stinging to Ling Feng, but Ling Feng seemed not to feel it at all, standing still and rigid like an ice sculpture, allowing him to be ravaged without any possibility of resistance.

  Xuanyuan's hand, which had been moving with abandon, suddenly stopped, his eyes snapping up to gaze coldly at her face. The distance between them was too close, making her acutely aware of the icy chill that emanated from him, as well as the destructive power that seemed to simmer just below the surface, waiting to erupt like molten lava.

  She was unmoved at this moment, her stillness piercing deeply into his eyes.

  Ling Feng's face at this moment did not show any unusual expression, only a calm and peaceful look. However, in his straightforward gaze, there was a clear flash of disgust and hatred. She hated him, that was for sure, she detested his touch, which was a perfectly normal reaction.

  "What? You hate me that much?" His hand clenched unconsciously, his thin lips moved slightly, and a biting voice escaped from his icy lips. The corners of his lips, as cold as dead stone, twitched slightly, "Does my touch make you feel disgusted?"

  A questioning tone, yet a definite attitude, her hands subtly clenched and suddenly opened, grasping tightly, precisely grasping the place he most wanted to ignore - her arm. Her eyes instantly turned even colder, "Or perhaps you're more expecting Murong Lingyun to touch you."

  Ling Feng's face stiffened slightly, making a great effort to remain calm, because his unguarded words had shaken him, this man was indeed shameless.

  Seeing the subtle change on her face, the anger in his eyes suddenly ignited and shot straight at her. He said harshly, "Unfortunately, you are now the king's consort, and you can only gasp under me. From today on, your body will only be touched by me. You'd better understand this."

  Ling Feng's lips curled slightly, revealing a hint of mockery and self-derision in his cold smile. His eyes flashed with a clear taunt as he spoke in a detached tone, "So, I won't refuse, nor will I resist. I'll just pretend it was a pig that nuzzled me, and at most, I'll wash myself clean a few times tomorrow." Though no matter how hard he washed, the filthy mark would never be completely gone.

  But at this moment she spoke lightly and calmly. Was she trying to deceive herself or intentionally provoke him?

  The former seemed to be nowhere to be found, but the latter's effect was quite remarkable. Xuan Yuan's body on top of hers stiffened noticeably, and her eyes, which had been unclear whether they were fiery or calm, now only showed a fierce and murderous frenzy. The hand that had been holding her arm seemed to have lost all sense of awareness, as if it were just grasping a wooden stick, not just tightening its grip, but wanting to snap it in two.

  The uncontrolled force exerted on her slender arm was a kind of pain that no one could imagine, only revealed by her slight tremble and the fine sweat slowly seeping out from her forehead. Yet she still tried hard to endure it, not letting out any sound, only secretly gasping for air in her heart.

  His eyes, which could instantly destroy the world, were staring at her at close range. Who said that no matter how fierce one's gaze was, it couldn't kill? However, Ling Feng had to refute this now, because she clearly felt suffocated and sensed death in his current gaze. She believed that if things continued like this, without even a moment passing, she would definitely turn into ashes.

  "Good, very good." A low voice, very low, yet still distinguishable as a low growl. But at this moment, Ling Feng vaguely felt that she couldn't tell whether it was a human voice or the sound of a wild beast. She only felt that the sound rippled in front of her face, carrying a kind of deadly terror.

  At this moment, no one knows what he means by "good", it seems that tonight, he has said the word "good" more than once. This woman actually compared him to a pig, such an insult, how can Xuan Yuan endure it.

  His anger at this moment seemed to have blown away all his rationality, but he didn't seem to do anything more ruthless to her except for increasing the pain on her arm. Ling Feng was certain that he wouldn't kill her because he had just promised not to, and wanted to play with her until the end. She knew that someone as arrogant as him would never kill her in this situation, as it would represent his failure. How could someone as proud as him allow a stroke of failure in his life?

  So at this moment, she dared to provoke his anger, it was intentional, of course, also hiding a frightened heart. Everything has unexpected events.

  Of course, Ling Feng had another purpose, which was to try and make Xuan Yuan Chen stop his current beastly actions, because, that man would still...

  Unless he thought he was the pig himself.

  "There's a kind of, dare you say that again." Mingming heard it clearly, but still asked again, at this moment even he didn't know what kind of answer he wanted to hear.

  "I thought I had made myself clear, but it seems there are many pigs in this world who only know how to vent their emotions." With a deliberate provocation, yet secretly startling her, she was still somewhat afraid of the hand that grasped her arm and suddenly reached for her neck.

  It's just that her words aren't bad either, it seems like there were men like that everywhere in ancient times.

  "Hmph... " He suddenly sneered coldly, looking into her eyes, seemingly with a hint of disdain or disgust. The smile at the corner of his lips slowly became a clear mockery. Coldly, he said, "No matter how I am, I wouldn't stoop to your level, you shameless tramp. If I wanted you, I'd be afraid of dirtying myself." Was it an insult? A counterattack? It didn't seem like Xuan Yuan Chen's style... but could the current Xuan Yuan Chen even be measured with normal standards?

  Or because of Ling Feng's humiliation, he has become a hedgehog covered in thorns, of course, a hedgehog that can make his enemies die at any time.

  "Haha... " Ling Feng also chuckled along, "You win some, you lose some." But in her heart, she couldn't help but breathe a slight sigh of relief, maybe this move was a gamble that paid off.

  In fact, she was very clear in her heart that if she said those words, Mo would either kill her or let her go, but he would never take advantage of her. If he did, wouldn't he really become the pig she had called him?

  Xuanyuan Chen's eyes flashed with anger again, but quickly hid it. He turned around and stood up quickly, his back to her, coldly saying, "You're also worthy, to be mentioned in the same breath as this king?" However, in that cold voice, there was still uncontrollable anger.

  Ling Feng didn't make another sound at this moment, and her goal had already been achieved. It was enough to let him take a few verbal advantages, after all, she also knew what it meant to stop in time.

  "A shameless and cheap woman like you, is she worthy of being the king's consort?" He remained with his back to her, not turning around or moving, "Get up and go to the rear courtyard. The women there are all cleaner than you." Heartless and hurtful, Xuan Yuan Zhen was no worse than anyone else.

  Ling Feng was slightly stunned, but secretly delighted. In fact, she wanted to hear him tell her to leave the palace directly. However, she also knew that the possibility of this happening was very small. She was aware that he had many women in his harem, and if she went there, her status would be no different from theirs. Or, as he had just said, she might not even be comparable to them. But for her, it didn't matter; on the contrary, it could be a kind of liberation. In the end, he would forever forget about her, as if she had disappeared. After a year or two, she would find another opportunity to leave.

  Slowly getting up, picking up the clothes beside him, but found that they had been torn by her. He could only take the clothes prepared for tomorrow at the foot of the bed and slowly put them on.

  She actually wanted to get dressed quickly and leave quickly, but she didn't dare to, fearing that being too hasty would have the opposite effect.

  Xuanyuan Chen didn't stop her, or at this moment, he didn't know how to face her either. He was afraid that if this woman didn't leave now, he might really lose control and kill her. Just a moment ago, he had such an impulse, but killing her now seemed too easy for her. He told himself in his heart to let her go, just not wanting to look at her and dirty his own eyes.

  During the day, the flowers that child sent lay quietly on the ground, with a few disheveled petals, yet they were exceptionally charming.

  Ling Feng didn't pay attention to it, after all, it was just a bouquet of flowers. Even if it was really sent by Murong Lingyun, she couldn't take it seriously.

  She tidied up her clothes, slightly lowered her eyelids, and slowly walked away from Xuan Yuan Chen's side, with a slight stiffness in her back, as if she was still afraid that Xuan Yuan Chen would suddenly change his mind. Fortunately, Xuan Yuan Chen had not spoken from start to finish.

  Because she had been looking down all along, when she passed by that bunch of flowers, she happened to see the marks carved on the stem. Her heart trembled slightly, and she felt a little flustered for no reason, but she tried her best to remain calm, as if she hadn't seen anything, and continued walking out.

  One step, two steps, she was getting closer and closer to the doorstep, just a few more steps and she could leave.

  But sometimes, some things just won't go as smoothly as you wish.

  Xuanyuan Chen's eyes had been coldly following her, and as she moved further away, his gaze grew even colder, yet he didn't stop her at all.

  It was only when she passed by the flowers that his eyes moved towards her slow-moving feet, and in a flash, he noticed the flowers. He thought of how she had picked them up during the day, held them tightly in her arms, and then inserted them into a vase at night, seemingly too deliberate. Unconsciously, he couldn't help but pay attention to it, and his eyes also subconsciously followed the direction of the broom.

  He was a martial artist, his eyesight was much better than ordinary people. What Ling Feng could see, how could he not see? So the slightly disordered marks on the stem of the flower naturally entered his eyes.

  But Ling Feng, due to a momentary weirdness at the time, picked up the little kid's flower. Since he had brought it back to the palace under his gaze, he naturally couldn't just throw it away as soon as he returned to the palace, lest it arouse suspicion. So, he specially found a vase and inserted the flower into it, thus perfectly covering up the words on top. However, she never could have imagined that Xuan Yuan Chen would actually knock over the vase...

  Xuanyuan Cheng's footsteps moved slightly, walking towards that bunch of flowers.

  Ling Feng's body suddenly stiffened, but he didn't dare turn his head back. His footsteps, however, suddenly felt much heavier, as if he couldn't take another step.

  Xuanyuan Chen didn't respond to her, but instead walked straight to the bouquet of flowers, slightly bent his waist, and picked it up. The words on the stem of the flower slowly enlarged before his eyes.

  He didn't get angry, but instead laughed, "Hahaha..." But that laughter was even more terrifying than the voice from hell, and at this moment, the expression on his face was a hundred times, a thousand times more terrifying than that of the King of Hell.

  All I heard was the sound of laughter, but his thin lips didn't move, or even his face was stiff, without any expression that hinted at a smile. The laughter was just a deliberate sound, a terrifying declaration.

  Ling Feng's footstep, which had just been forcefully taken, stiffened in mid-air, and his numb body trembled involuntarily. If he hadn't known what fear was before, then now, his laughter had taught him what true fear was - the kind that sent chills from head to toe. He knew this time, he was really done for.

  On that bunch of flowers, although there was no name left, both he and she would think of who it might be at first glance.

  She brazenly accepted Murong Lingyun's flower in front of him, and at this moment, she herself didn't dare to hope that he would let her off.

  "So that's how it is." His voice, cold enough to congeal blood, confirmed her suspicions and shattered the last vestiges of hope that may have still existed in her heart.

  Or perhaps this was fate, heaven had given her an opportunity, she thought she had won the gamble.

  But in the end, it was an even more miserable outcome.

  Hehehe...... It turns out that what's meant to come will ultimately not be able to escape......

  His hand, tightly pinched the stem of the flower, but saw that under the thin skin below the four characters "carefully preserved", it seemed to be slightly loose, and he was slightly stunned. He quickly wiped it off, and unexpectedly found that there were a few more small words hidden underneath.

  Originally, the eyes that were already icy and unapproachable had completely frozen over, slowly taking step after step to walk in front of Ling Feng, coldly facing her, word by word slowly saying, "You and Murong Lingyun, what do you take Ben Wang for?" The words slightly paused, a pair of eyes cold enough to congeal blood suddenly flashed with a hint of cruel ferocity, "Actually exchanging love tokens in front of Ben Wang."

  Ling Feng slowly raised his head, his eyes scanning the flower tightly held in his hand. He closed his eyes slightly, his red lips opening lightly as he spoke in a soft tone, "How can you be certain that this flower was sent by Murong Lingyun?" In fact, she had always been somewhat skeptical about it, for it didn't seem like something Murong Lingyun would do. Although Murong Lingyun was usually gentle and romantic towards her, this was an extraordinary time - how could he possibly make such a mistake? Besides, the words on the flower were just a few blessings, without any particularly sentimental meaning.

  "Hahaha..." Xuan Yuan Chen's soft laughter sounded again, but this time it was not as icy as before, or perhaps it had frozen to the deepest point and couldn't be felt anymore. However, his lips curled up into a clear sneer.

  "It seems that I have not yet reached the point of being old and muddled, to be deceived by such a clumsy trick like this. You think you can fool me?" After a slight sneer, his expression suddenly froze, but his gaze at her eyes was a kind of obvious mockery, a kind of mockery that made Ling Feng somewhat puzzled.

  "Do you think I'm a fool, or do you consider yourself sacred?" His body leaned in slightly towards her, his cold face almost touching hers, letting his icy, bloodless gaze soak into her.

  Ling Feng's eyes widened slightly, with a hint of confusion, and he raised his gaze, saying in a low voice, "I don't understand what you mean, Your Highness." Even if the flower was indeed sent by Murong Lingyun, it wasn't as exaggerated as he said. Moreover, there was no signature on the flower, so no one could be completely sure that it was sent by Murong Lingyun; he was just making an educated guess.

  "Don't you understand?" His eyebrows slightly raised, "I didn't expect that your ability to tell lies with your eyes open is quite impressive. Even now, you still dare to say you don't understand?" As he spoke, the bouquet of flowers moved in front of her, and those four words, "Be careful, take care", were once again revealed before her eyes.

  His hand tightly grasped the stem of the four words, constantly exerting force, as if the stem was about to be pinched into fragments. Ling Feng speculated that he must have taken the bouquet as her neck, wanting to directly strangle it, making Ling Feng directly feel the breath of death.

  At this moment, Ling Feng didn't dare to make any rash moves again, because she knew that at this moment, Xuan Yuan Chen was like a wild beast out of control, and he might not have any rationality left, let alone consider anything else. So if she wanted to survive, she had to be extremely cautious.

  Her eyes swept over the four characters, but she still maintained a calm demeanor, slowly opening her mouth to say, "It's just a blessing message, maybe it was just something that child scribbled for fun." Anyway, there was no evidence, and at this moment, as long as she insisted that it wasn't sent by Murong Lingyun, he couldn't do anything about it. Moreover, she was increasingly feeling that there were too many suspicious points about this matter.

  From the emperor's sudden fainting to Bao'er's sudden appearance, and then this bouquet of flowers, everything seems to be shrouded in a strange atmosphere. Or is it all being manipulated by someone behind the scenes?

  But I don't know what its purpose is?

  "Haha... " Xuan Yuan's lips curled slightly, the slight movement of his lips seemed to be a smile but not quite, "It seems that you really..."

  "Is it that you won't rest until you reach the Yellow River?"

  The hand holding the stem slowly moved away, revealing the place where he had just tightly pinched, slowly revealing...

  "Are you really taking me for a fool? Hmm?" The seemingly smiling yet not quite smiling expression on his face kept spreading, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking. However, Ling Feng discovered that such an expression was even more frightening than when he had an icy cold face.

  Her eyes slightly drooped down, when she saw clearly the few small words that he had just pressed down on, her body involuntarily stiffened completely. Those few words were very small, but they were very clear, and they read "I love you, Yun".

  No, it's absolutely impossible that it was Murong Lingyun. Even in ordinary times, Murong Ling wouldn't say such things to her, let alone at this critical moment. Murong Lingyun should be very clear about the consequences of doing so. Therefore, the usually cautious Murong Lingyun is absolutely, absolutely unlikely to do such a thing. That leaves only one possibility: someone is intentionally framing her.

  "No, it's not like that, listen to me explain." Ling Feng was slightly afraid in his heart, who exactly was this person, how did they know so much about him and Murong Lingyun's situation, and even knew of Bao'er's existence?

  But she understood that she absolutely couldn't fall into that person's trap, no matter how much she hated Xuan Yuan Chen, at this moment she had to explain things clearly to him.

  "What explanation?" Xuan Yuan's eyes coldly swept over her, then slowly turned to the bouquet of flowers. "Do you think it's still necessary to explain at this point?" His words paused slightly, and when his eyes lifted again, they were filled with obvious mockery. "Besides, I recall that you've never been one for explanations. Don't you think it's a bit redundant now?" His eyes narrowed slightly, and a flash of ruthlessness flickered in the depths of his gaze. The flowers in his hand suddenly...

  Loosened, scattered on the ground one by one, lying in a mess, still charming, but at this moment, it has become an absolute irony.

  "Can I just take your current explanation as a sign of guilt, a guilty conscience trying to cover up your ugly behavior with Murong Lingyun?"

  "No." Ling Feng knew that his words were indeed a bit superfluous at this moment, but the more he felt this way, the more he sensed the terror of the pair of hands behind him, so he spoke again, "Why don't you think carefully..."

  "Does the king think that's not enough?" Xuan Yuan Chen coldly and harshly interrupted her, "If I think a bit more carefully, I'm afraid I can clearly describe the scene of you and Murong Lingyun rolling around in bed." The extremely ruthless sarcasm couldn't hide his anger, which was about to burst. This moment's humiliation was meant to hurt her, but it stabbed even deeper into himself.

  Everything Ling Feng said was stuck in his throat, he had already determined everything at this moment, and whatever she said was useless. He had always been calm, but unexpectedly became so impulsive, actually, if you think carefully about it, you will find many suspicious points, with his intelligence, he should be able to understand easily.

  At this moment, Xuan Yuan Chen had long lost his usual calmness, and his mind was already muddled by the anger and jealousy in his heart, unable to see things as they really were.

  "Ah," he suddenly raised an eyebrow, as if remembering something, and his gaze at Ling Feng suddenly turned evil. "You reminded me, there is indeed one thing that I should think about carefully."

  Ling Feng was taken aback, thinking that he had suddenly understood, and his heart involuntarily skipped a beat with joy. Just as he was about to speak, he met the evil glint in his eyes, and was shocked into silence. What exactly was it that he had said made him think carefully?

  "What? You won't forget that quickly, will you?" Seeing the fleeting confusion on her face, Xuan Yuan Chen's smile grew even more wicked, and his body involuntarily leaned in closer to her. "If you really have forgotten, I wouldn't mind reminding you."

  Ling Feng was indeed somewhat perplexed, and for a moment he didn't understand what he was saying. He simply stared at him with a slightly dazed expression.

  "Women, your acting skills are indeed impressive, making even me, the king, have to admire you. And just now, I almost fell for it." Xuan Yuan Chen's face seemed to have slowly erased his anger, replaced by a cruel and vengeful look.

  Although his words were still somewhat incomprehensible, Ling Feng had already vaguely guessed what he was saying.

  As expected, his eyes suddenly turned cold, and the footsteps that were already close to her actually took another step forward. Ling Feng subconsciously retreated, but he happened to retreat onto the table behind him, unable to retreat any further, and could only stiffen there.

  His body pressed down on her, "So you were intentionally provoking me." The cold words spilled out one by one, "Intentionally angering the king." His lips brushed against her ear, and the sound of his teeth gritting also involuntarily entered Ling Feng's ears.

  His lips, which had been slowly approaching hers, suddenly stopped right next to her ear and in a very low voice said, "Just for Mu Rong Ling Yun's sake." As soon as he finished speaking, his teeth suddenly bit down on her earlobe, biting down hard and not letting go for a long time.

  A sudden pain spread from her ear, but Ling Feng didn't dare to struggle in the slightest, fearing that if she struggled even a little, he would bite off her ear, so no matter how painful it was, she could only endure it silently.

  Slowly, she felt a thread of warmth and moisture on her ears, faintly, as if smelling the bloody smell, he slowly loosened his mouth, slowly stood up straight, cold eyes, but there was not a single **, only cruel punishment.

  "My queen, she's actually guarding her body for another man, haha... it's really wonderful." His lips were stained with a faint red color, just like a wild beast that had just devoured its prey. A chilling horror. A pair of cold eyes stared straight at her, as if they wanted to swallow her whole.

  A brilliant remark, spoken from his mouth at this moment, yet containing too many emotions.

  "This king actually wanted to help you, but I'm already a useless person. If I were to help you, wouldn't it be a waste? Every word and sentence was a sarcastic remark that struck Ling Feng's weak point. The corner of his mouth twitched as he cruelly asked her, 'What do you say?'"

  "I am a withered flower, not worth the prince's time. Let me leave and it will be clean." She asked her, she answered truthfully, she was never a chaste person, what else could she hide?

  Xuanyuan Cheng's lips curled up again, his thin lips slowly opened, and he stared straight into her eyes, which had a hint of cold smile. "Woman, you really dare to think." Now, could she leave?

  "I'm just afraid that I, a withered flower, would tarnish the king's reputation." Ling Feng hesitated for a moment, then spoke slowly and deliberately, word by word. If her own self-deprecation could help her avoid this calamity, she thought it was worth it.

  Because she knew that once things were over, Xuan Yuan Chen would definitely discover the strangeness of the matter.

  "Haha... " Xuan Yuan's light laughter echoed in the room again, and he chuckled, "You still have a bit of self-awareness, but... " His words paused, and his laughter became even more frivolous. "What a waste of effort."

  As they spoke, her hand quickly stretched out and with a burst of strength, the clothes she had just put on were once again torn to shreds.

  "A withered flower and a broken willow, what else is there for me to care about?" His hand stopped, his voice rose, all of it was that kind of ruthless indifference, not caring in the least that his roughness had hurt her.

  "Is the king really so desperate that he's interested in even a withered flower?" Ling Feng's body was completely stiff, but he still tried to struggle, his icy voice full of sarcasm.

  But her words had no effect on him, or maybe they did, but at this moment he automatically ignored them and gritted his teeth, growling, "I'm really desperate to the point of not being picky about food, otherwise why would I want you."

  As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly hugged her and swung his arm, slamming her heavily onto the bed.

  "With a 'bang', Ling Feng only felt that his entire body's bones were suddenly scattered, the pain was tearing him apart. This ancient bed was too hard and he had used too much force. Ling Feng could feel cold sweat constantly breaking out on his body, constantly gasping for air, really wondering if he would just pass out like this."

  If she had just fainted like that, it would have been better off, but after the intense pain, Ling Feng still managed to react, his body already invading hers. With a flip of his body, he pressed her down heavily on top of him, without any prelude or warning, with one forceful thrust, he brutally entered her.

  It hurts... it really hurts. The pain now is no less than the first time. She was only taken by him once, three years ago, and that was the only time in her life. So although she didn't have that layer representing her virginity anymore, it still felt tight. Moreover, his roughness at this moment left her completely unguarded, so how could she not feel pain?

  Suddenly, the shadow of that night flashed before my eyes again, a devil-like shadow, just as terrifying, with such eyes, and just as cruel.

  The body pressed against hers stiffened slightly, as if there was a hint of unexpectedness, just a slight pause, as if thinking of something, the cold mockery flashed again in her eyes, and the rough movement continued once more.

  There were several times when Ling Feng felt so much pain that he almost fainted, but was instead tormented by the cruel pain without ever truly losing consciousness.

  ...This part is omitted...

  After an unknown period of time, Ling Feng only felt that all the bones in his body were separating piece by piece, as if they no longer belonged to him. The strength in his entire body seemed to have been drained away, and he couldn't move at all.

  She seemed to be lying in bed stiffly, as if she didn't even have the strength to breathe, and only a faint warmth could prove that she was still alive.

  He finally stopped moving, his eyes only slightly swept over her, then got up and slowly adjusted his clothes.

  "No need to pretend in front of me, I have never been one to pamper or spoil. His voice was still icy and emotionless, as if he had just walked in from the freezing cold rather than having just gone through a brutal and passionate struggle."

  A faint cold smile slowly crept onto her pale, bloodless face. He was not just a master who cherished his fragrance and jade, but an outright devil.

  Seeing her seemingly smiling yet not smiling expression, Xuan Yuan Chen's anger flared up again. What he hated the most was this woman's expression. He harshly said, "Get up, put on some decent clothes and get out of my sight."

  This woman, if she stays here any longer, is likely to have only two outcomes: one, he can't bear it and kills her; or two, again... Neither of these possibilities does he want to consider now.

  Ling Feng seemed as if he hadn't heard, his eyes fixed straight on the canopy above, not blinking even once. From a distance, he really looked like a dead person.

  Xuanyuan Chen's eyes flashed with a hint of strangeness, but just as he was about to move forward, he saw her hand tremble slightly. He stopped his movement and sneered coldly, "What? Can't bear to leave my bed?" As he spoke, he turned his body slightly, leaned down, and gazed at her, seemingly wanting to cruelly possess her again. However, he didn't make any further moves, and his eyes only paused when they met hers, which had subtly shifted.

  Lying in bed, Ling Feng finally had a reaction, only to flash his eyes slightly, actually, she didn't want to leave, but really had no strength at all.

  Seeing him make another move, she just muttered, "Dirty, every time it's dirty." What she meant was that three years ago, once, and this time, now that things have come to this point, what else is there for her to be afraid of?

  Xuan Yuan Chen's body suddenly stiffened, his newly restored sanity once again overwhelmed by anger. "You filthy thing, I'll let you know what true filth is." As he spoke, his body suddenly straightened and he shouted loudly, "Chu Wei!"

  However, her hand unconsciously pulled over a intact shirt by the bedside and quickly put it on for her.

  Ling Feng didn't show any gratitude for his actions, instead he sneered even more coldly, "Hypocrite." Everything that could happen had already happened, and everything that couldn't happen had also happened. Since he had called Chu Wei in at this moment, why bother with such a pointless disguise? Why did she need him to wear her clothes?

  Her obvious sarcasm made his action stiffen for a moment, then with a burst of strength, he quickly pushed her away. Fortunately,

  Ji Ci Ling Feng was still sitting on the bed, and his strength seemed to be not too great either, so he didn't fall over.

  Without looking at her, Ling Feng slowly got up and walked towards the door. He only hoped that he would never see him again, but for now, he didn't say where she should go, whether it meant she could leave or not.

  A cruel trampling, in exchange for freedom, seems worth it too.

  Chu Wei, on the other hand, was very good at choosing his timing. He walked in at this moment and saw a room full of disarray. He couldn't help but pause for a moment, but then pretended as if nothing was wrong and said in a low voice, "What are your orders, Your Highness?"

  Staring straight at her receding back, his eyes suddenly narrowed, thin lips slightly parted, and he slowly said word by word, "This woman, I'm giving her to you." No one knew why he had called for Chu Wei earlier, nor did they notice the unusual tone in his voice when he spoke these words.

  Chu Wei was suddenly stunned, a pair of incredulous eyes suddenly lifted up, looking at Xuan Yuan Chen in disbelief, and tremblingly said, "Wang... Wang Ye... Wang Fei she..."

  "This king says, this woman has rewarded you, what other queen is there?" Coldly interrupting his words, ruthless and cruel, was his specialty.

  Ling Feng's footsteps also stopped involuntarily, it turned out that she had underestimated the cruelty and ruthlessness of this man after all, hehe...

  "This...". Chu Wei faced such a dilemma for the first time, and it was really difficult to advance or retreat. Wang Ye, what's going on?

  "What's wrong, didn't you hear what I said?" Xuan Yuan Chen spoke again in a cold tone, "Or do you want to disobey my orders."

  "Underlings dare not..." Chu Wei said repeatedly, his footsteps also involuntarily slowing down and retreating backwards, when he retreated to Ling Feng's front, he said in a low voice, "Your Highness, please."

  Although he didn't understand why the king would do this, seeing the king's furious face made Chu Wei involuntarily stunned. He had followed the king for so long, and it seemed like the first time he saw the king lose control like this. So he dared to confirm that the king was extremely concerned about the queen, but didn't know what the queen did wrong to anger the king like this. For now, he should just bring the king out and arrange things later.

  Ling Feng heard Chu Wei's whisper and couldn't help but pause for a moment. He then took another step forward, following Chu Wei as he left.

  There was no turning back, so nobody saw Xuan Yuan Chen's true expression on his face at this moment.

  ,,

  Chu Wei led Ling Feng into an empty room in the backyard and said softly, "Princess, you can stay here for one night. Tomorrow, when the king's anger has subsided, I will take you back."

  Ling Feng's eyes scanned the room silently, and he didn't make a sound. Was he waiting for his anger to subside before taking her back? Humph, then she really hoped that his anger would never subside.

  Chu Wei arranged Ling Feng and then returned to Xuan Yuan Chen's room, saying carefully, "Your Highness, I have temporarily arranged for the princess in the backyard." As he spoke, a pair of eyes carefully looked towards Xuan Yuan Chen.

  "Who gave you the guts to act on your own?" Xuan Yuan Chen never lifted his head, only low and angry hums came out, but what followed was nothing, not even a hint of real pursuit.

  Chu Wei's face darkened, and he repeatedly shouted, "Yes, yes, I was out of line... I will withdraw now and not disturb Your Highness." Since His Highness did not say anything more, he naturally understood what he should do.

  ……

  The next day, at dawn, Ling Feng got out of bed as if nothing had happened and slowly walked to the backyard, stopping by a small river that seemed to lead nowhere.

  The river water is very clear, but the bottom can't be seen, proving that this river is very deep. Through the small bridge in front of him, Ling Feng saw that the river stretched all the way to the wall of the Wang Fu and then extended outside.

  If she wasn't mistaken, this river was the one she had seen outside before, and it was also the one that led her to Xiliang City.

  Yesterday evening, when Chu Wei brought her here, she had already discovered it, so this morning, early in the morning, she came to take a look, and after getting confirmation, she couldn't help but feel secretly delighted.

  Of course she wouldn't be foolish enough to jump directly into the river and swim away. She needed to find an opportunity, one that would confuse everyone, including him.

  Of course, she believed that in this backyard, such opportunities would be plentiful.

  While she was in a daze, she saw several women with bright and beautiful colors passing by in front of her. She knew that they were all Xuan Yuan's concubines, and looking at their straight walking posture, they must be looking for her, not to ask about her well-being, but to kick her while she was down.

  However, Ling Feng did not dodge, but instead slightly curled up the corners of his lips and flashed a hint of expectation in his eyes. She had just said that she had many opportunities, but didn't think it would come so soon.

  In less than a minute, several women had already arrived at Ling Feng's side.

  Ling Feng seemed as if he hadn't seen them at all, and simply stared straight ahead at the fish swimming in and out of the water.

  "Ho, who might that be? It's actually our noble princess?" a voice finally couldn't help but say sarcastically.

  "Yes, indeed." Another voice chimed in, but immediately followed with even more venom, "But I heard that last night, she was already given to the servants by the prince as a reward."

  Good news never goes beyond the gate, bad news travels a thousand miles. I didn't expect that before dawn, everyone would know about this matter. But for Ling Feng, such words were simply painless and itchless.

  She pretended not to hear and sat quietly by the river, gazing intently at the water's surface, carefully observing the flow of the water.

  "What's wrong with you? Are you deaf or mute? Didn't you hear us talking to you?" A woman, unable to contain her anger, shouted at Ling Feng, who had not reacted at all. Originally, Xuan Yuan Chen had suddenly married Ling Feng and made her his queen consort, even moving her directly into his bedroom. Everyone had been seething with anger in their hearts, and today Ling Feng finally moved into the backyard as well. They had accumulated days of anger, thinking they could vent it on this woman, but unexpectedly, she didn't even acknowledge them.

  "Never mind, or maybe she's really heartbroken, let's not..." A soft voice rose inappropriately, with a few parts of concern, but seemed to also hide a few parts of care, only... it was even more eerie.

  "Go." A woman cut her off sharply, "You're too kind-hearted, didn't you see the way she looked down on us? She's not sad at all. She just looks down on us."

  "What's wrong with us, we're all the king's women, and always have been, but she, the king gave her to a servant, what does she have to be proud of?" A discontented voice followed.

  "Yes, after all, she's just a woman who doesn't speak up, a worthless wife." This voice was the most venomous.

  Ling Feng's gaze, which had been staring straight at the water's surface, suddenly sank, and a faint cold smile played on his lips. It was her.

  She slowly got up, gently patted the dust on her buttocks, and slowly turned around to look in the direction of the sound. She saw a woman's face with a look of jealousy and a hint of viciousness.

  Ling Feng secretly sneered in his heart, it seems that he is indeed not a simple character.

  "What are you looking at? Don't be dissatisfied, did I say something wrong?" The woman saw Ling Feng stand up and look at her, becoming even more arrogant. "Hmph, what I said is not wrong at all! I heard that last night, you came down from the bed in Wang Fu's mansion and were given to a servant, isn't this already considered a woman who has been passed around?"

  Ling Feng's face didn't show any anger, instead a faint smile appeared, and he slowly walked towards her a few steps. "Disgusting." This kind of appearance was truly disgusting to the extreme.

  As she stood by the river, Ling Feng approached her a few steps closer and also got closer to the river, standing precariously on the shore, as if one misstep would send him tumbling into the water.

  "What did you say?" The woman's eyes suddenly widened, looking at her with some incredulity. Anger continuously spewed out of her eyes, as if wanting to tear Ling Feng apart.

  Ling Feng's face still had a gentle smile, without any change due to her anger. He intentionally leaned in slightly closer to her and said clearly, word by word, "I said your appearance is really disgusting."

  "How dare you say I'm disgusting." The woman suddenly roared with anger, her voice seemingly audible from a thousand miles away. Her hand also slightly extended, pointing at Ling Feng, and she couldn't help but curse loudly, "You cheap woman, since you dared to scold me as disgusting, you who have slept with thousands of men and been ridden by tens of thousands of men, do you still have the face to say that about me?"

  "Haha... " Ling Feng's faint, gentle laughter formed a stark contrast with her inhumanly loud roar. "Not only disgusting, but also foul-mouthed. I really don't know how you ended up in the king's bed."

  In fact, the woman didn't have bad breath at all. Even if she did, she would definitely try to cover it up and wouldn't let anyone find out. Ling Feng's words were purely fabricated, with only one purpose: to intentionally provoke the woman.

  As soon as the woman heard Ling Feng say that she had bad breath, she suddenly stopped talking and looked at the other women with a hint of embarrassment. The women who were just chatting with her seemed to be avoiding her too, and their faces flashed with schadenfreude.

  "You, don't listen to her nonsense, I didn't..." The woman, seemingly a brainless beauty, was actually explaining to everyone.

  "Haha... " Ling Feng still had a faint smile on his face, "Nothing? You're not in such a hurry to do something, it's clear you're guilty and trying to cover it up." Ling Feng continued to intentionally provoke her.

  "You... shut up!" The woman glared at Ling Feng with a pair of fierce eyes, shouting loudly again. Her hands trembled with rage.

  "It's better for you to shut up, otherwise the fish in this river will be stunk to death by you." Ling Feng said as he deliberately glanced at the river, but his slightly lowered eyes carefully observed the terrain under his feet.

  "That...!" The woman suddenly choked with rage, her finger pointing straight at Ling Feng. She was speechless for a long time, unable to utter a single word.

  "Alas." Ling Feng deliberately let out a soft sigh, his face filled with sorrow as he gazed at her.

  "What's wrong with you?" The woman deliberately annoyed him and still asked Ling Feng foolishly.

  Ling Feng's eyes swept over her again, then slowly said, "I just feel sorry for you, I think when you're with a man, you probably don't even dare to speak up."

  One sentence thoroughly enraged the woman.

  "You're a cheap woman." Her hand suddenly stretched out and swung straight at Ling Feng's face.

  Ling Feng didn't dodge, staring wide-eyed as her hand swung towards his face. Suddenly a sharp pain shot through him, and on her face five distinct finger marks instantly appeared.

  She stood by the river, swaying slightly, then her arms seemed to beg for help and stretched out towards the woman, wanting to grab her. The woman naturally dodged quickly, and Lingfeng's out-of-control body plunged straight into the river.

  She kept sinking down, without any struggle, probably no one knew she could swim, and now she just sank to the bottom of the river and then slowly swam out along the water.

  Seeing Ling Feng's fall, a hint of smile floated across the faces of the women. It was only natural that they couldn't immediately go shout for help. At least, they had to wait for a while, until Ling Feng was almost drowned, before going to shout for people.

  But just then, a cold voice suddenly came, "What are you all doing here?"

  The crowd of women were shocked, and involuntarily turned around at the same time. When they saw Xuan Yuan Chen suddenly appear, they were stunned, but their faces immediately flashed with expressions of joy or shyness.

  The woman who had just thrown Ling Feng into the water quickly walked to Xuan Yuan Zhi's front, and the voice that was like a lion's roar just now suddenly became gentle. "Your Highness, that woman fell into the water."

  Xuanyuan Chen raised an eyebrow, slightly impatient, and coldly swept his gaze over her, asking casually, "Which woman?" There were so many women here, he didn't even know who was who, and to him, it made no difference which one had fallen into the water.
