Capítulo 1245: Chapter 1230: Ye Zhen’s Resolve
When Ye Zhen and Zhao Zhong hurried over, just one glance and Ye Zhen’s eyes were about to burst with rage!
For so reason, the kitten had already revealed its true form, but was being tightly grabbed by an old eunuch with a sinister face. Its body was confined in a dark power, struggling and wailing.
Seeing this scene, Ye Zhen’s eyes imdiately turned red.
“Let go!”
Without hesitation, spirit light surged from his body, and Ye Zhen rushed toward the old eunuch.
Ye Zhen’s charge frightened Zhao Zhong. In the blink of an eye, Zhao Zhong recognized the identity of the young girl behind the old eunuch.
“Don’t act recklessly!”
Zhao Zhong hurriedly pulled Ye Zhen back. With his cultivation at the Divine Communication Realm, he quickly reached out and held Ye Zhen.
However, the old eunuch who was holding the kitten screeched angrily, “Bold! How dare you assassinate the Princess!”
With a shout, his free hand slapped toward Ye Zhen like a giant fan!
The stance seed ready to flatten Ye Zhen into at paste on the spot.
Zhao Zhong, who was holding Ye Zhen, was dumbfounded. He didn’t know the consequences of bumping into this noble young lady.
But if Ye Zhen was killed by this old eunuch, not only would Marquis Xingqing obliterate Zhao Zhong’s entire family, but he would also make Zhao Zhong’s life a living hell!
Because Zhao Zhong knew very well how crucial Ye Zhen was to Marquis Xingqing’s gamble and how much Marquis Xingqing cared about it.
“Eunuch Jin, stop!”
Zhao Zhong’s voice, usually coarse, beca extrely sharp at this mont, as he gave up on Ye Zhen without hesitation. His pale fingers instantly flashed out countless shadowy fingers, shrouding Eunuch Jin’s vital points.
“Zhao Zhong, how dare you attack !”
Eunuch Jin was both surprised and furious, but had no choice but to retract his hand. Although Zhao Zhong’s cultivation was not much different from his own, the “Ten Thousand Shadows Poisonous Finger” from Zhao Zhong was exceptionally vicious, and he dared not take it head-on with his body.
Black light suddenly exploded inside the book-storage building, spreading out like a shockwave. The bookshelves nearby started to glow dimly and then exploded under the terrifying impact.
Instantly, alarms blared throughout the building.
Zhao Zhong and Eunuch Jin simultaneously grunted, each taking half a step back.
But in the mont Eunuch Jin retreated, a shadow rapidly enlarged before him.
Ye Zhen’s iron fist ruthlessly smashed into Eunuch Jin’s face!
Eunuch Jin’s eyes showed an indescribable shock. His protective spirit light was forcibly smashed apart by Ye Zhen, and the iron fist directly decorated his face with a blossom of red and purple.
Even more lethal was that the mont the fist struck, circles of thunder light wound around Eunuch Jin like electric snakes, causing him to convulse violently as if possessed.
His face was charred black from the thunder light.
In pain and agony, he naturally let go of the kitten’s forehead, and with a wail, the kitten shivered and jumped into Ye Zhen’s embrace.
As soon as he touched the kitten, Ye Zhen’s expression turned even darker. The kitten’s terrified look clearly signaled an attack on its divine soul. A touch of balanced and harmonious divine soul power went into the kitten’s soul sea, slightly repairing its damaged divine soul. Ye Zhen’s gaze turned fierce, and he prepared to attack the ruthless Eunuch Jin again.
This ti, Zhao Zhong held Ye Zhen tightly and then knelt respectfully towards the young lady on the opposite side, with a bitter smile, “Old servant pays respect to Princess Changle. Old servant did not know that Princess was present and offended the Princess, please forgive !”
A trace of disdain flashed in Ye Zhen’s eyes. The princesses on this Primordial Continent were truly not worth much; within a short period of ti, Ye Zhen had already encountered the second princess.
Moreover, because of Princess Jie Youu, Ye Zhen had no good impressions of the princesses of the Primordial Continent.
Just as he was about to speak, a powerful force ca, Zhao Zhong forcibly using his cultivation in the Divine Communication Realm to pull Ye Zhen down, while a warning echoed in the Spirit Palace.
“Captain Ye, this one here is nothing like the likes of Princess Jie Youu you have seen! This one here is truly the most prestigious bloodline princess of our Great Zhou Empire, and currently the most favored princess.
Not to ntion you and , even the Marquis and the Prince must salute and worship her in formal occasions! Absolutely nothing out of line can be said or done, or no one will be able to save you!”
At this mont, from amidst the thunder light, Eunuch Jin, having recovered, began cursing loudly. His gaze at Ye Zhen and Zhao Zhong was filled with hatred, “Zhao Zhong, you are so bold! You’ve lost your mind! In broad daylight, how dare you attack the princess, is Marquis Xingqing planning to rebel, Princess……”
“Slap!”
A loud slapping sound rang out; the cursing Eunuch Jin scread, his body was knocked flying by the slap, and a green-robed eunuch imdiately followed, slapping him continuously.
“A re death slave dares to manipulate the princess? Dares to slander Marquis of rebellion, truly don’t know the aning of death? Slap his mouth a hundred tis for !”
The defiant voice of Marquis Xingqing resounded, his figure had already landed in the chaotic interior of the book-storage building.
“Sister Lingg, this old servant of yours is getting more and more presumptuous, speaking nonsense without restraint! It’s only because Sister Lingg, you have a gentle nature; if it were under , it would have been death by beating long ago!”
Marquis Xingqing’s words made Eunuch Jin, who was being slapped, shudder all over. Even though his mouth was slapped loudly and blood dripped from the corners, he didn’t dare to utter even a half-hearted cry for fear of attracting Marquis Xingqing’s attention, lest he would truly beat him to death.
“He is an old servant who attended to my mother. Although my mother is no longer here, having them by my side makes feel like she is watching over . So, I tend to indulge them at tis,” Princess Changle spoke slowly, her voice sowhat soothing with a hint of freshness.
“Ah, you, it’s just your temperant! Otherwise, this old servant might have caused your death many tis over! Yet, it’s precisely your temperant…”
Marquis Xingqing sighed deeply and walked to Princess Changle’s side, “You’re like this, but if you ever need , your brother, to discipline them, just say the word. Just once, and I guarantee they will behave for a hundred years!”
“If there’s a need, Changle will certainly ask Brother Tao for help!” Princess Changle said.
“By the way, Sister Lingg, what exactly happened? Why is there such a commotion here?” Marquis Xingqing’s face sank, pointing at Zhao Zhong and cursing, “If this daring servant has the audacity to offend you, I’ll skin him today!”
Zhao Zhong was imdiately frightened, begging for rcy repeatedly, hitting his head on the ground, and repeatedly saying he dared not.
It was unclear how Zhao Zhong managed, but his head knocks even managed to draw blood, making him appear quite pitiful, which even Princess Changle could hardly bear to watch.
Of course, perhaps Zhao Zhong knew Princess Changle’s temperant and acted accordingly.
“Brother Tao, actually, it’s not their fault—it was my impulsiveness! I saw a little fellow and found it very cute, so I just wanted to…” Princess Changle gestured, pointing at the kitten, a rare blush appearing on her pretty face.
“This? Cute?” Marquis Xingqing looked at the Cloud Winged Tiger King revealing its true form with a puzzled face, as he knew Princess Changle wouldn’t normally like sothing so unusual.
“No, Brother Tao, earlier, this tiger was only the size of a palm, truly just palm-sized, and it was even flipping through books! It’s the first ti I’ve seen a Demon Beast that can read…” A hint of excitent flashed in Princess Changle’s beautiful eyes.
With a face full of confusion, Marquis Xingqing glanced towards Ye Zhen and Zhao Zhong, seemingly inquiring. Zhao Zhong imdiately nudged Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen reluctantly called out, and the kitten owed softly. Its body glimred with light, instantly shrinking from the size of a hundred ters to that of a palm, leaving Marquis Xingqing and Princess Changle’s eyes filled with brilliance!
“Strange, I’ve seen many Demon Beasts capable of Fatian Xiangdi transformations, but for a small creature barely stepping into the Spirit Beast threshold to possess such Divine Skills, and without a hint of worldly aura, is indeed extraordinary!
And it can flip through books? Go on, let see! If it truly can read, I won’t hold you accountable for the Book Storage Building incident!” Marquis Xingqing said.
“It really can read, Brother Tao!” Princess Changle emphasized with a prolonged tone.
Though unwilling, Ye Zhen knew today’s situation had escalated, especially with that previous strike destroying a thousand books. Without Marquis Xingqing’s intervention, it would be hard to justify.
With a slight movent of his Divine Sense, the kitten leapt onto the nearest bookshelf, flipping through the books with a seemingly adept appearance, its spirited deanor utterly captivating everyone around.
Princess Changle looked at the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten as if watching little stars, her affection palpable to the extre.
“I fancy this pet of yours. Whatever you want, just say it. As long as it’s within my power, I’ll surely fulfill it!” Princess Changle suddenly spoke.
Marquis Xingqing and Zhao Zhong were both taken aback, and then Marquis Xingqing smiled bitterly, “Changle, it’s just a little Spirit Beast. If you like it, just ask, and I’ll decide to give it to you…”
“No way!”
Marquis Xingqing’s words were cut off by Ye Zhen’s firm refusal, making Marquis Xingqing’s expression imdiately turn extrely unpleasant as he stared at Ye Zhen. “Captain Ye, do you know what you’re saying?”
“The kitten is my companion! It has faced life and death with countless tis, sharing both hardships and joys. I will absolutely never give it away!” Ye Zhen t Marquis Xingqing’s gaze without flinching, making him want to kill!
“Ye Zhen, you are courting death! If you don’t hand it over, I’ll kill you and still obtain this pet for the Princess! I’ll reward handsoly for gifting it to the Princess!” Marquis Xingqing’s eyes were filled with murderous intent!
“Even if you kill , I will never give away my brother!” Ye Zhen shook his head calmly, wearing a determined expression.
Just as Marquis Xingqing was about to lose his temper, a green-robed eunuch behind him quietly stepped forward and whispered into his ear.
“Is it true that your bond with this little creature was ford through the most ancient blood sacrifice for Divine Soul connection?” Upon hearing the whisper, Marquis Xingqing’s brows furrowed deeply.
Upon hearing this, a look of disappointnt appeared on Princess Changle’s face, “Brother Tao, if he is unwilling, then forget it! If you forcefully separate it from its master, this little creature is unlikely to be happy.
Forget it, I won’t want it then!”
Marquis Xingqing looked quite serious as he turned to Ye Zhen, “Ye Zhen, have you made up your mind? As soon as you give up this little creature, I will imdiately promote you a rank! You can choose any suitable military position under my command!”
These words, even surprised Ye Zhen a bit.
For soone as proud as Marquis Xingqing to negotiate terms with Ye Zhen just to make Princess Changle happy.
But the issue is, even if it ans being promoted a rank, or being granted a title, Ye Zhen would never give the kitten away!
Perhaps understanding the current situation, the kitten nestled in Ye Zhen’s arms, owing softly.
“You!” Seeing Ye Zhen resolutely refuse again, Marquis Xingqing’s expression darkened further.
“Your Highness, Marquis, this old servant has a good thod that can keep the little fellow by the Princess’s side!” Eunuch Jin, who had just finished being slapped, suddenly stepped forward with advice.
However, while offering advice, his gaze towards Ye Zhen was full of malice!
