C22 (1/2)
Abruptly inhaling, lifting his leg and moving his elbow, a series of movements were completed in one go. Ji Tian Ning did not hesitate to make his move. It could be said that he had practiced internal and external techniques since he was young and was definitely not a weak girl. Wolf defense experts, medical university Wushu Club, Taekwondo Club enthusiasts.
The seductive smile still bloomed on her white jade like lips, yet her actions were merciless.
”Hmph …”
The handsome face slightly contorted and he let out a groan. His body abruptly flashed out and collided with the tent, causing it to sway a few times.
Taking advantage of the opening, Ji Tian Ning rapidly ran outside. What a joke, PKing with the Emperor, that was a life and death business. She only wanted to confuse the reverse fire scale and take the opportunity to escape tonight's calamity.
”Pervert Emperor! An emperor is indeed a pervert and a narcissist!”
A figure appeared behind her like a ghost, grabbing the hair at the back of her head and ruthlessly wrapping it around her wrist. Her hair, like a black waterfall, was wrapped around the reverse scale's wrist. At this moment, his face was below -40 degrees Celsius. It was the first time in his life that he had been so offended, especially by a woman.
The Emperor's favorite woman should kneel at his feet and kowtow to him in gratitude. All of the imperial concubines in the imperial harem were fighting each other over who would snatch his gaze.
A slightly rough hand emerged from her slender neck and grabbed her throat. A suffocating feeling rose from his throat as Ji Tian Ning retreated backwards, tears on the verge of flowing out. It wasn't that she was weak, but that her hair was almost torn off. Her body was like a bow as it curved backwards in a beautiful semicircle.
His icy gaze contained boundless coldness as he looked down at Ji Tian Ning.
Gritting her teeth tightly, Ji Tian Ning did not beg for mercy nor make a sound. In reality, she was also unable to make a sound. His throat was tightly gripped and he was short of breath. His face had a strange flush to it.
She knew deeply that if she were to fall into the hands of the White Horse Emperor like this, she would probably be unable to escape the humiliation tonight.
”Reporting to Your Majesty, this criminal, Shang Qiuyuan, has come to seek an audience.”
A voice that was as cold as a mountain spring came from outside the tent. This voice was like a life-saving celestial sound. Ji Tian Ning instantly heaved a sigh of relief, but his gaze was unable to look outside the door.
The corner of Huo Ni Lin's mouth curled up into a sneer as he reached his finger into Ji Tian Ning's chest, lifting up her clothes.
She pursed her lips into a stubborn arc and looked at the Fiery Inverted Scale with a disdainful gaze. If she could speak, she would ask if the Fiery Inverted Scale had never seen a woman before and was an anxious pervert.
”Sinful subjects have come to thank His Majesty and await His Majesty's decree.”
The voice was right at the door, closer than before, and Huo Ni Lin's eyebrows were slightly raised. 'This Shang Qiu used to pick precisely this time, could it be that he did it on purpose?'
”Reporting to Your Majesty, this subject pleads to Your Majesty to bestow grace upon Miss Ji and ask her to rescue the Golden Armor. The Golden Armor is currently in dire straits, and with Your Majesty's blessing, everyone in the world praises Your Majesty for his great virtues.”
”Do I need to listen to the discussions of the common folk?”
”Your Majesty, I hope Your Majesty can never thank Your Majesty for opening the gates to the heavens.”
”Hmph, Shang Qiuyuan, good timing.” ”As you wish. Ji Tian Ning, go and return as soon as possible.”
Huo Ni Lin released his hand and looked down at Ji Tian Ning with a cold gaze. He lowered his head and whispered into her ear, ”Ji Tian Ning, you're my woman. You won't be able to run away.”
Ji Tian Ning let out a long breath, gasped for breath, and ran out of the tent.
He wore a white robe, and a faint white lotus flickered as if swaying in the wind. Her originally black hair now had a few strands of silver in it, making it look even more eye-catching in her black hair.
The silver belt was embroidered with snow lotuses, just like a man. Although they were right in front of his eyes, they seemed to be far above the snow mountains, unlike any man in the mortal world. On his jade-like forehead was a touch of silver on his forehead, covering the wound left by his kowtow, adding to his scholarly looks.
Elegant eyebrows, like the faint across the mountain, warm eyes containing a deep sadness.
A pair of slender hands supported Ji Tian Ning. The two of them looked at each other. Shang Qiuyuan revealed a faint smile and used his gaze to ask Ji Tian Ning. His gaze landed on Ji Tian Ning's wrist and neck. He gently swept over them, his gaze filled with pity.
The two of them did not say anything. Ji Tian Ning steadied her body, revealed a bright smile, and winked at Shang Qiuyuan.
”Shang Qiuyuan, come in.”
”Yes, Your Majesty.”
Shang Qiuyuan gave Ji Tian Ning a deep look. Walking past her, he lifted the tent flap and entered.
He turned his head to look at the man that was like a white lotus disappearing behind the door curtain, feeling lost and dazed on the spot.
