Chapter 485: The Formidable King Consor (2/2)

Lanshan was stunned with his eyes agape as if he had just seen a devil. The sword energies in his hand lost control.

“Boom!” Cangyue with a cold expression struck his head with her palm, forcing him down on the ground. His kneecaps slammed on the ground and nearly went flying. The formations on the ground were shattered.

Lanshan didn’t expect for this graceful princess to actually be so powerful. He was quite shocked inside and wanted to stand up. However, she placed her palm on his head and a black wave of light emanated, stopping him from moving.

If this wasn’t in public, she would have used her evil treasure arts to devour all of his cultivation.

“Whoosh!” She took out a sword and a bright flash ensued. Blood gushed out of Lanshan’s mouth with a piece of his tongue.

He twitched and coiled on the ground while covering his bloody mouth and issuing miserable and muffled cries.

“This is the result of those who disrespect the Divine King.” She gazed at the crowd, scaring many of the prodigies.

So frightening! This princess has been keeping a low profile. If it wasn’t for the engagement, people wouldn’t know about her existence. Everyone thought that she was a feeble princess, not expecting for her first move to be so astonishing.

Even someone on the lower historical list has been subdued by her with his tongue cut off. This cultivation, decisiveness, and cruelty changed everyone’s opinion. They needed to reevaluate her once more.

She naturally had reasons for doing so. Her goal was for the crown prince position so she needed to establish her prestige, telling the world that she had the power to compete.

Though doing this pushed her into the limelight, this was still beneficial since it let others know that there was a third faction for the crown prince position. Some will secretly support her; this was one way for her faction to grow.

Moreover, she was also forcing Feiyun to make a decision in order to stand with her side.

Feiyun understood her intention as well but he quietly watched without revealing his attitude. What’s inevitable will come. The time didn’t matter.

Beiming Potian gave her a deep stare and said: “Looks like this princess is quite strong, her cultivation is not below Princess Luofu. You got another tough rival.”

Long Shenya had a calm expression. He sipped his wine and said: “We’ll see if she’s strong enough.”

Two old men helped Lanshan who was coughing blood on the ground and took him away with the piece of tongue on the ground. They placed it into a jade box; if the vitality was still there, then they could probably attach it to him again.

Long Cangyue and Hongyan gave each other one last fierce stare before Cangyue swung her sleeve and returned to the palace. She gently grabbed Feiyun’s arm and revealed a prestige fitting of a King Consort.

“Satisfied with my performance today?” Cangyue secretly sent him a message.

“Well played, indeed.” Feiyun replied back.

“Thanks.” Cangyue smiled back.

Feiyun then laughed and told the crowd: “Yue’er is too mischievous, excuse us, everyone. Oh right, today is about music. Miss Dongfang, why don’t we play a tune? If I win, I will sit next to you with the King Consort, okay?”

He still didn’t give up on aggravating Hongyan so he purposely didn’t look at her at all.

This was her banquet but he didn’t ask for her opinion at all. She was naturally angry to the point of gritting her teeth.

“If Divine King is in such a mood, then Jingyue will play a song with you.” Jingyue said: “However, I wish to do it privately with no one else around.”

It was a pure type of competition usually used by the famous maestros back then. Two music lovers would fight with their songs for no other reasons than to test themselves. Only gentlemen would use this type of contest.

‘What does she want to do?’ Feiyun wasn’t afraid of being together with her alone so he invited her into his palace then closed the doors. Only the two of them went inside. Even Long Cangyue stood out in waiting for the result.
