Chapter 183 (2/2)
One was Feng Yixuan, one was Leng Lingyun.
The two shared a glance, then fell silent.
Carter and the other knights were stupefied. The refined Divine Prince swore?! Their enterally noble and icy idol had actually cussed today!
Qi Aoshuang’s eyes flashed icily. Not bad, Temple of Light, I’d like to see what other kinds of lies you can use. In truth, Leng Xuanxuan’s death was blamed on Qi Aoshuang not because of his holiness, the Pope, but because of the Divine Princess, Liu Xueqing.
“Captain, it looks like talking is useless. Only when we kill the witch shall our Divine Prince awaken,” one of the knights said coldly.
No one could understand Carter’s current state of mind. He had relentlessly pursued his idol, but now his idol had become like this. The proud and aloof youth in white had saved him from the edge of death many times with a wave of his head, but had never paid him any attention. It was as if he were a passerby saying a small cat or dog. He never regarded him as anything more. Today was the first time he was anything more to him, but it was under such circumstances.
“Light Sanctuary!” Carter shouted, raising his pike high.Dazzling white light poured down, enshrouding him and the other holy knights. This was auxiliary magic that would increase their strength.
Leng Lingyun’s eyes narrowed. He was about to make his move.
But the next moment, something flashed in front of him. A small figure stood before him. It was Qi Aoshuang.
“Let me.” Qi Aoshuang only said these two words.
Leng Lingyun wanted to say something, but found no words to say.
Qi Aoshuang eyed the holy knights, sighing internally. In their hearts, Leng Lingyun was not merely the Divine Prince. Clare understood from their gazes when they looked at Leng Lingyun. Such veneration, adoration, respect… if Leng Lingyun personally attacked…
“Witch! Today is the the day you die.” Carter gripped his pike tightly. He stomped heavily into the ground, then burst forward with a deep bellow.
“Halt…” Qi Aoshuang did not move, only saying this word faintly. It seemed like time paused for a millenia and the entire world was transforming… a huge aura erupted, enveloping the holy knights.
Carter froze in place in the same position in mid air, while the holy knights behind him were also unable to move.
“Huh? What happened?” Xi Shaoqi watched the frozen holy knights with wide eyes. Their eyes were unfocused and they had been frozen in place.
Qi Aoshuang closed her eyes and reached out. With a flick of her finger, nine tiny golden lotuses appeared, slowly revolving as they flew to each holy knight’s forehead. They slowly fused into the holy knights’ foreheads, then disappeared.
“What was that?” Xi Shaoqi was stunned by the unfathomable scene.
“Let’s go. It’ll take them a while to wake up.” Qi Aoshuang turned around, ignoring Xi Shaoqi. She walked over to where she had sat earlier. White Emperor and Black Feather hopped onto her shoulders.
“Are you not going to kill them?” Xi Shaosi’s face darkened. He had a deep hatred for the people of the Temple of Light.
“Yeah, I’ll do it for you.” Xi Shaoqi hated the people of the Temple of Light even more. However, tonight, the two viewed Leng Lingyun in a different light.
“No need.” Qi Aoshuang mounted onto a camel, preparing to leave.
Xi Shaoqi and Xi Shaosi looked back at the utterly defenseless holy knights. Although their hands were itching to stab a few holes in the knights’ chests, they did not dare to disobey Qi Aoshuang. Despite that she had only said two words, no need, she definitely would not change her mind. However, they did not understand why they should not kill the despicable, nasty people.
Everyone started to journey again, traveling under the moonlight.
“Thank you.” Leng Lingyun’s soft yet clear voice traveled to Qi Aoshuang’s ear.
Qi Aoshuang did not look back, did not even say a word. Sometimes, words were unneeded. Qi Aoshuang understood that Leng Lingyun had not wanted to fight against those people.
