Wicked Prince’s Abandoned Wife - C238
It wasn’t easy for the three of them to finally arrive at the border between the Southern Champion Kingdom and Yuchi Kingdom. Actually, it was said to be the border, rather than a river. Crossing this river would be the boundary of the Southern Champion territory. But on this side of the river was still the Yuchi Kingdom. The scenery on this side of the river was completely different.
No matter what, Yun Ruo Lu could not understand, could it be that the Southern Champion was really a barbarian land? On the other side of the river was a desert, while on the side of the Yuchi Kingdom was a village.
However, there were several small bridges on the river, and some people would cross the border.
“Actually, this desert is not very big. As long as you walk for two hours you will be able to walk out of the desert. This place can not be considered as the land of the Southern Champion. Scarlet Jade said.
“I have already divided this land into four parts, and that has nothing to do with me.” Yuchi Xuan said.
“This place doesn’t belong to the Blue Judgement. It’s obviously from Yuchi Kingdom.” Chiyu also argued.
Yun Ruo Lu thought this was strange, wasn’t it just a desert? Like a hot potato, neither country seems to want it, neither country recognizes it as their territory. Was it only because it was a desert?
“Let’s change clothes first. We can’t wear these clothes to travel through the desert.” Yuchi Xuan said seriously.
Yun Ruo Lu looked at Chi Yu again, and she nodded. Then they went to the small village and changed their clothes. Then they crossed the bridge and entered the desert.
After walking in this desert for a while, he realized that there were people here too. They were just some stalls selling fruits and things like that.
“Don’t buy anything here, let’s move forward quickly.” Scarlet Jade said.
Before Yun Ruo Lu could react to what was going on, the peddlers who were just selling fruits all drew their sabers. There were at least a few hundred of them.
“Looks like I’ve caught three fat sheep today …” They said to Yun Ruo and co.
Only then did Yun Ruo Lu realize that they were bandits from the desert, people who specialized in robbing and plundering. These bandits must be very savage, otherwise, why would neither Yuchi Kingdom nor Lan Dang Kingdom want this place?
“Quickly hand over the money you have and you can safely pass through. Otherwise, only death awaits you.” The bandits of the desert said.
“We have no money.” Yun Ruo said leisurely.
“No money? Who are you lying to? Although you have changed your clothes, which commoner would be as fair and tender as the three of you? He is obviously the son of a rich family, not to mention the piece of silk that you have revealed. He pointed at Yuchi Xuan.
Yuchi Xuan looked at the silk collar of his shirt. It looked like he hadn’t completely covered up his outer robes.
“Hurry up and hand over the money.” the robber said.
Yun Ruo Lu hated being robbed on the streets the most. Especially since she didn’t like people provoking her, she would be courting death if she were to offend her. In any case, she had just developed a new concealed weapon and had yet to experiment with it. How about she take it out and test it out? she thought. He hadn’t expected that Chiyu and Yuchi Xuan would be the first to act against these bandits. And it seemed to be a very easy fight. What was even worse was that they actually had more bandits to deal with than who!
Yun Ruo Lu felt three black lines on her head drooping in an instant. However, the bandit clearly saw that both Scarlet and Yuchi Xuan were very strong. However, Yun Ruo didn’t move at all. Looking at her tender, white skin, he thought that she was someone who was easy to mess with, so he attacked Yun Ruo Lu.
Of course, Yun Ruo Lu was not someone to be trifled with. She shouted, “Both of you, get out of the way …”
After Scarlet Jade and Yuchi Xuan heard Yun Ruo Lu’s words, they quickly jumped to her side. Yun Ruo Lu took out a small tube like device from her sleeve, held it in her hand, and shot it towards the group of kidnappers. Hundreds of poisonous needles shot out. Those needles could almost see Xue Feng throat, and the group of kidnappers instantly fell to the ground. The rest, seeing them like this, fled in fright.
“Want to leave?” “It’s not that easy …” Yuchi Xuan flew over and killed the bandits who were trying to escape. “Cutting the grass won’t remove the roots. A new spring wind will appear …” “No,” he said.
Yun Ruo Lu and Chi Yu did not say anything, and then they walked out of the desert and saw a small town. Although this town was small, it was filled with farmland. It was now May and June. Rice was growing and there was a green scenery everywhere.
When the wind blew, it was like a green ocean, with tiny waves rolling about. Coupled with the blue sky, it made people feel relaxed and happy, as if all their troubles could be put behind them. At this moment, Yun Ruo Lu and her group were walking on a small path in the field. They were heading towards the town.
Scarlet and Yuchi Xuan didn’t speak at all on the way. It was very quiet. When Yun Ruo Lu arrived at the town, the people from the town treated her warmly.
It seemed that the people of the Southern Champion Country were always very hospitable, especially in this desert. Due to their relationship with the robbers, very few people would come here, so there were not many outsiders in this town.
It was late, and they were determined to rest here for the time being.
He went to the only inn in town and asked for three rooms.
However, on the way here, Scarlet Jade and Yuchi Xuan remained silent. Yun Ruo Lu thought back to when she had taken out her hidden weapon. This was a concealed weapon that she had developed. It was extremely powerful, but the workmanship was also very meticulous. This was especially true for the needles above which had been tempered with the poison from Blood Sealing Throat. As long as it was fired, even a person with a scratch on their skin would die instantly.
One of them was the future monarch of the Southern Champion, the other was the monarch of Yuchi. How could he calm down when he saw such a lethal weapon? If he used it on the battlefield, one of it could kill hundreds of people. Its power was enormous, one could imagine how powerful it was.
Earlier, she had only been concerned with her own strength, so she hadn’t expected such a thing to happen. If she had known earlier, it would have been better to beat up those robbers.
Just as expected, when they were having their meal at night, Yuchi Xuanyuan asked first, “What are the things you used to deal with the robbers today?” How come I’ve never seen one before? ”
Yun Ruo said leisurely, “This is a weapon I made myself. It will emit two hundred and eight extremely fine poisonous needles.” she answered truthfully. Indeed, Yuchi Xuan’s eyes were filled with excitement.
“Do you want the blueprints for this item?” Yun Ruo glanced at Yuchi Xuan.
Yuchi Xuan was about to speak, but he felt a pair of eyes staring at him. Those eyes were crimson jade, and as he stared at him, he swallowed the words that had just escaped his lips.
As the dishes were served, the three of them were eating. In the evening, Yun Ruo Lu could not fall asleep, so she used her lightness skill to fly to the roof of the inn to look at the stars. Scarlet Jade also flew over and sat beside her.
“Are you here to ask me about the blueprints?” Yun Ruo Lu didn’t look at him, she only looked at the stars.
“No, I just wanted to tell you that it’s good for you to do what you like. My Lan Kingdom doesn’t need this blueprint.” Scarlet Jade said with a face full of confidence.
“Then let’s look at the stars together.” Yun Ruo Lu said to Chi Yu.
Chiyu nodded. The two of them sat on the roof for an hour, until the wind somewhat cooled down. Only then did they descend from the roof.
On the second day, Yuchi Xuan didn’t ask about the blueprints anymore. They continued on their journey. Along the way, Yun Ruo discovered that although the territory of the Blue Daimon Nation was not much larger than that of Yuchi Kingdom, it was not worse than that of the Yuchi Kingdom. The people here were very hospitable and simple.
On the way back, the person that everyone talked about the most was the heir to the Southern Champion Kingdom. According to legend, this heir was the old emperor’s long-lost flesh and blood, and was also a very intelligent person. Once he returned to the country, he changed many of the Southern Champion Kingdom’s policies, such as reducing the taxes of the common people.
The commoners were full of praise for him. The Southern Champion Kingdom was originally a country where the commoners lived and worked in peace. No one wants war. The people here love peace.
When Yun Ruo Lu came here, she really liked this place more and more. She didn’t know why, but she suddenly had a thought in her heart: how good would it be if I could stay here.
“Do you like Nanke?” Chi Yu asked.
“Very much.” When Yun Ruo Lu reached that place, she felt free to do as she was told.
“How about staying here?” Chi Yu asked.
“What do you want to do with my beloved concubine? Let her stay here? “Then do you believe that my army will raze this place to the ground?” Yuchi Xuan walked over.
“Is that so? This is the Southern Champion Kingdom’s territory, and there is no Emperor Yuchi here. I am the heir here, if I wanted to keep her here, how could you endure me now? ” Chiyu also smiled, but her words were filled with the smell of gunpowder.
“If you dare to keep her, even if this Southern Champion is razed to the ground, I will still bring her out.” Yuchi Xuan spoke very seriously.
Yun Ruo Lu did not want to see them discuss this issue, so she said: “It’s better if we hurry up and look for amethysts.”
Then she mounted up. She didn’t want to hear the two of them argue. It was none of their business where she wanted to go. She liked the fact that the Southern Champion did not necessarily have to stay forever in the Southern Champion realm. She was the only one who was sure that she would not stay in Yuchi Kingdom.
The two of them rode their horses as well. Chiyu had returned to the Southern Champion quietly, no one knew, and many people believed that Chiyu was still in Yuchi Kingdom, but she did not plan to go to her own palace.
“What, you, the crown prince, are going to take a detour after passing by the capital?” Yuchi Xuan said.
“This will save you some time. If you want to go see the Southern Champion Palace, I also welcome you as a guest.” Scarlet Jade said.
“No, I won’t go.” He did not want to rashly go to the Southern Champion Kingdom’s Imperial Palace. It would not be beneficial for him to go in there like this, and he also did not want to get involved.
“The Dragon and Phoenix Cave is on the outskirts of the city. However, there are very few people who go there.” Scarlet Jade said.
“You know quite well …” Yuchi Xuanxuan glanced at Chiyu and felt that this crown prince knew too much about the local customs and practices of the Southern Champion Kingdom.
“Of course, I’m not like you, who spend all day in the palace.” Scarlet Jade said.
Yun Ruo Lu was already listening to their bickering along the way. She felt her head hurt, so she said: “Let’s see who gets there first.” She had to ride away again.
