Romance of the Resurrected Crown Princess and the Cold-blooded Wolf King - Chapter 185

Upon seeing the fireballs, the goons all tried to dodge. The fireballs made the goons unable to approach the boy at all.

Duanmu Xi looked at the boy in the middle of the road, her eyes slightly flickering. She turned out to be a fire spiritual master but his spiritual magic was just at the elementary level.

The leader of the goons looked annoyed to the extreme. A dozen people couldn’t deal with a kid. This was such a shame.

“You are all rubbish. I’ll kill whoever dares to dodge again,” the leader shouted and then rushed forward, holding the saber in his hand.

Upon hearing that, the goons didn’t dare to dodge again. They all braced themselves to attack the boy.

The boy slightly knitted his eyebrows. The spiritual magic was not suitable for melee attack but he couldn’t exert mysterious Qi. Did he have to go back with them?

No way. He would rather die than go back with them. A shimmer of determination flashed across his dark eyes. When those people’s sabers were about to hit the boy, he dodged aside with a flash like a bolt of lightning.

He was using the Gale Step. Duanmu Xi slightly curled her lips. This boy was not only a fire spiritual master but also a wind spiritual master. He was a lot more proficient in Gale Step than Fireball Skill.

However, no matter how fast the boy acted, he couldn’t get away from those goons who kept chasing him. Very quickly, the boy was caught by them.

Seeing the boy being caught, the leader smiled complacently and patted the boy’s face with the saber’s back.

The boy’s face instantly darkened. He took a fierce glance over and meanwhile gave off a rush of domineering momentum.

The boy’s fierce eyes made the leader’s blood freeze and complacent smile stiffen instantly. Who on earth was the boy? Why could the leader feel a horrifying momentum of being in a superior position for long in the boy?

The leader shook his head and felt a bit annoyed. Why was he shocked by this boy again? What a shame!

Now, he didn’t dare to pat the boy’s face with his saber’s back anymore. He looked at the boy and arched his eyebrows, “What do you think? Are you going back with us or not?”

The boy sneered, “In your dreams. I would rather die than go back with you.”

The leader immediately flew into a shameful rage and pointed his saber at the boy, shouting angrily, “Do you think I don’t dare to kill you?”

Not afraid of the leader’s threat at all, the boy raised his head and said with disdain, “Just kill me as you wish.”

“You…” The leader was furious, “Okay. Since you asked for death, I will fulfill your wish today.”

The leader raised his saber and struck it at the boy’s head.

Many onlookers looked at the leader raise his saber and all closed their eyes pitifully. Some women even mumbled, “Oh, my good lord…”

The boy looked at the saber struck at him. There was no fear but an unknown relief in his eyes. He even cracked a smile. Dying was better. He would rather be an ordinary man in the next life. In this case, he wouldn’t have to be so tired.

Duanmu Xi looked at the boy’s smile and suddenly felt her heart aching. She couldn’t help rushing forward. When the leader’s saber was about to reach the boy’s head, she kicked the leader away.

“Bang…” The leader was directly thrown to the ground, stirring up dust from the ground.

Upon hearing the voice, the boy opened his eyes. Upon seeing Duanmu Xi, the boy was slightly in a trance. What a handsome man! Even though he had been surrounded by handsome men and beautiful women before, none of them could compare with Duanmu Xi.

After kicking the leader, Duanmu Xi turned around and kicked away the two goons restraining the boy. She reached out her hand to hold the boy’s hand and drag him to her.

The boy hung his head to look at the fair-skinned hands and slightly frowned but he didn’t shake the hands away. It seemed that he didn’t hate her touching.

The sudden scene astonished all.

“It’s that handsome gentleman!”

“Thankfully, the handsome gentleman is here. Otherwise, this boy would be doomed today.”

“This gentleman looks quite weak. He doesn’t seem able to do martial arts. How can he dare to mess up with these people?”

Phoenix Five and the others came to their senses and rushed to Duanmu Xi.

Lishang and Lian Zhengyu directly went forward and stood in front of Duanmu Xi and the boy. Xuanyuan Hao stood next to Duanmu Xi, his eyes glistening with worry.

Phoenix Five looked at Duanmu Xi with a worried face, “Your Highness, are you okay? If you wanted to save this boy, you could have ordered us to do it. Why did you do it yourself? If anything untoward happens to you…”

“I’m fine.” Her light reply directly interrupted Phoenix Five’s babbling.

“Bah… Bah…” The leader got up from the ground and spat the earth from his mouth. He grabbed the saber from the ground and turned to shout fiercely, “Who kicked me…”

Upon seeing Duanmu Xi’s handsome appearance, the leader immediately stopped cussing.

The two goons kicked away by Duanmu Xi covered their chests and walked to the leader, whispering, “Boss, what shall we do now?”

Upon hearing that, the leader composed himself and stared at Duanmu Xi with an obscene smile, “Take the man in white back with us.” The leader believed that Duanmu Xi could surely be sold at a good price given her good look.

“Yes.” The goons received the order and rushed to Duanmu Xi and her companions at once.

They were merely a disorderly mob. How could they defeat Lishang and Lian Zhengyu? Within a blink of an eye, a dozen people were knocked down by two people.

The leader saw what Lishang and Lian Zhengyu could do. His eyes glistened and then he ran away in a fluster.

Seeing that their boss had run away, those goons also rose from the ground and fled.

Seeing those people had run away, Duanmu Xi lowered her head and looked at the boy, saying with concern, “Are you OK?”

Her soft voice was like a spring breeze blowing into the boy’s heart. He felt warm and raised his head to look at Duanmu Xi. Then, he nodded and said nothing.

Duanmu Xi looked the boy up and down. After finding that he was not injured, she said with slight reassurance, “Where is your home? Let me escort you back.”

The boy still said nothing and only shook his head.

Duanmu Xi slightly frowned her eyebrows, her dark purple eyes glinting with pity. He was such a young boy but he was so defensive. What on earth had he experienced?

“Growl…” The boy’s stomach rumbled all of a sudden.

Several people heard the sound and looked at the boy’s stomach.

The boy lowered his head with embarrassment. If his face were not all black, others would see his red face.

Xuanyuan Hao glimpsed the boy and said to Duanmu Xi, “How about taking him to grab a bite?”

Duanmu Xi took a look at the shy boy and nodded.

They entered a restaurant aside together.

The manager was a bit surprised to see Xuanyuan Hao and thought, “Isn’t Second Prince eating in the private room on the second floor? Why is he coming through the gate now?”

“Take us to a private room on the second floor,” Xuanyuan Hao directly ordered without giving the manager a chance to speak.

“Yes. Dear guests, please follow me upstairs.” The manager directly made a gesture of receiving guests and then showed them the way ahead.

After entering the private room, Xuanyuan Hao said, “Bring us some dishes and a pot of fine tea.”

Upon hearing that, the manager immediately said with a bow, “Yes, please wait a minute. The food will be ready soon.”

After saying that, the manager turned around and got out of the private room.

A moment later, a waiter carried the dishes and drinks into the private room. After setting the table, he bowed to them and said, “Sir, your dishes are all served. Please help yourselves.”

Xuanyuan Hao nodded and waved at the waiter.

The waiter immediately took the hint, bowed to Xuanyuan Hao again and then got out of the private room.

Xuanyuan Hao looked at Duanmu Xi, “The food is ready. Come and eat.”

Duanmu Xi dragged the boy to the table and turned to say to Phoenix Five and the others, “Sit down and eat together.”

Upon hearing that, Lian Zhengyu sat next to Duanmu Xi while Lishang and Phoenix Five didn’t move.

Seeing that Phoenix Five and Lishang didn’t move, Duanmu Xi slightly frowned, “Just sit down as told. There are no outsiders here.”

Lishang and Phoenix Five both looked at Xuanyuan Hao.

Xuanyuan Hao stopped pouring the wine and then smiled gently at Lishang and Phoenix Five, “Yeah, she is right. Just sit down and eat together.”

Lishang and Phoenix Five finally sat by the table together.

Seeing the two of them sit down, Duanmu Xi said to the boy, “You must be hungry. Help yourself.”

Then, she picked up the chopsticks and put a bit of the dish in the boy’s bowl.

The boy slightly frowned and took a look at the dish in his bowl. With his eyes flickering, the boy didn’t seem to hate the dish served by Duanmu Xi. Then, he picked up the chopsticks and started eating the dish in his bowl quietly.

Duanmu Xi looked at the boy and slightly smiled. Even though he was very hungry, he still chewed carefully and swallowed slowly. According to his eating movement, he must be well educated. She wondered who the boy’s parents were. Why did he fall into those bad guys’ hands?

She served some dish to the boy again. The boy raised his head to take a look at Duanmu Xi and also put a bit of the dish into her bowl.

Duanmu Xi was slightly dazed and then smiled. She picked up the chopsticks and ate the dish served by the boy.

Phoenix Five widened her eyes in disbelief upon seeing that Duanmu Xi ate the dish served by the boy. Her Highness had just eaten the dish served by that dirty boy! After all, Her Highness was a mysophobia. She never ate anything touched by others except Prince Zhan and Emperor of Qinglong. Even when Her Highness was eating with Her Majesty Empress, His Highness Royal Consort and Her Highness’s three masters, they must use serving chopsticks over the meal.

The boy saw Duanmu Xi eating the dish served by him and then smiled subtly.

While the people were all watching Duanmu Xi and the boy, Xuanyuan Hao put an elixir into the teapot in secret. This Abortion Elixir was specially made for her by him. It would only make her miscarry without affecting her health.

Xuanyuan Hao stood up as if nothing had happened and poured a bowl of tea for Duanmu Xi, “Please have a taste of the white tea.”

“Thank you.” Duanmu Xi stood up and fetched the tea bowl. A weird scent greeted her nose, “It smells so good.”

Xuanyuan Hao smiled gently, “The white tea comes from the snowy cave in Wannian Snow Mountain. It is a kind of special tea in Baihu, which smells aromatic. You may as well try it.”

Hearing that, Duanmu Xi nodded and picked up the tea bowl.
