Chapter 1501: Chapter 159: Willing to Be a Lapdog Under Jiang Qingyang’s Command
The graceful body curled into a ball on the bed, seemingly enduring so kind of pain even in sleep.
The young man slowly walked forward, reaching out his right hand…
Bang!
Before he could react, his whole body had already crashed heavily to the ground. His internal organs felt disjointed.
The Dao Origin within him dispersed, and his neck was gripped tightly by two fingers.
The man’s face quickly turned red, his eyes widened, staring at the woman wearing the faceless mask pressing down on him.
“Yan… Yan…”
The Masked Demon glanced at the scattered bottles and jars on the ground, seeing them filled with various healing dicines, she casually loosened her fingers, but her gaze remained icy cold: “What do you want to do?”
“You seem… seriously injured.” The young man said, his voice tinged with nervousness: “I want… to help.”
“Little wretch.” The Masked Demon snickered, stood up, and returned to the bed, with a teasing tone: “What help can you possibly offer ?”
Liang Jiu, a forr disciple of Yong Country’s Green Cloud Pavilion, lay silently on the ground, still entrapped in that near-death trembling sensation, unable to break free.
Yanzi turned around and sat on the bed, her graceful posture froze into a curve. While tracing her long hair, she wiped the cold sweat on the back of her neck, discreetly retracting her jade hand, resting it upon her knee.
Her tone gentle: “Fool, why are you still lying there?”
At this prompt, Liang Jiu jolted and scrambled to his feet, his staggering steps causing the bottles and jars to clink, stopping fearfully.
“What are you doing?” Yanzi reproached with a pout: “Are you afraid of ?”
“No, no. I like… like.” Liang Jiu quickly approached, trembling as he crawled towards Yanzi.
He reached out to unbutton the collar, but spent a long ti without succeeding, accidentally touching the faceless mask.
“Thwack!”
With a backhand slap, Yanzi sent him flying, making him roll several tis on the ground.
“Disappointing thing!”
The icy voice carried a hint of anger: “Others shine infinitely in their twenties, while you are like a dog at that age! Can’t even be a good dog, clumsy!”
Liang Jiu, embarrassed, rolled several tis on the ground, after stopping, he quickly turned over to kneel properly, his head hanging low.
He didn’t know why he got slapped.
He didn’t know who Yanzi ant by others, nor did he know she had actually misspoken, as Jiang Wang wasn’t even twenty.
He just lowered his gaze, with his already extinguished spirit cowering, whispered: “Sorry.”
“Ah…” Yanzi sighed, seemingly softened again, stood up and walked in front of Liang Jiu, slowly squatted down, fragrant wind brushed his nose, jade hand caressed his forehead: “Sister truly likes you, truly treats you well, but with you like this, how can you stay by sister’s side? Sister teaches you every day, teaches you every day, try to be better, okay?”
Liang Jiu, terrified and ashad and flustered, whimpered like a puppy: “Mm.”
Yanzi reached out, pulling him into her embrace.
The two were closely pressed together, feeling a warmth needed by both.
Vaguely, it was also love.

On the Star Moon Plain battlefield, troops from both Xiang Country and Xu Country amassed.
The leading general of Xiang Country is Lian Jingzhi, the grand pillar of Xiang Country. The leader of Xu Country’s troops is Fang You, the Grand Marshal of Xu Country’s military.
Both are renowned generals of their ti, and the top military strategists that their respective countries can offer.
But the insightful know that the outco of the war doesn’t rest on them.
The true function of these contemporary famous generals is rely a noteworthy na. To assure their people that the armies of Xiang and Xu Countries are fighting for national interests.
What floods the battlefield are nurous young prodigies from Qi and Jing and their respective affiliated and vassal states, who are the ones this battle is ant to prove worthy.
Lin Xian, the first prodigy of Rong Country, enjoys limitless prestige within his own nation, but on Star Moon Plain, does not stand out.
Bao Bozhao, Chao Yu, Xie Huaian, Wang Yiwu, Zhongxuan Sheng, Li Longchuan, Yan Fu, Tian Chang, Wen Lianmu, Gao Zhe…
Just the younger generation from Qi Country arriving on the battlefield are talented and dazzling, leaving no chance for young prodigies from those small Eastern Region countries.
And given Rong Country’s little sches shown at the Yellow River Gathering, they are destined to be reprimanded at Star Moon Plain.
Thus, since arriving at Star Moon Plain, Lin Xian has kept a very low profile, not leaving the camp without orders.
Yet even so, so things cannot be avoided.
That day, barely after Fang You announced the dismissal of the military council, Lin Xian quietly stood and departed towards the camp.
He hadn’t walked far when he saw a shadow flash, and a tall man stood in front of him.
The man had a wide nose and large eyes, wearing luxurious clothes, with a proud expression.
His gaze looked down, quite haughty.
“You are Lin Xian, right?” the man asked.
Lin Xian maintained a calm expression, nodded in greeting: “Greetings to Gao Zhe, Young Master Gao.”
Gao Zhe, who was taller than him by half a head, looked down with interest, with the ease of a cat playing with a mouse: “You know ?”
Facing this heir of the Silent Sea Gao Clan, Lin Xian kept his posture low: “A small country doesn’t dare disrespect a big country, Lin Xian has done his howork on the nas of various young prodigies in Qi Territory.”
“Oh?” Gao Zhe looked around, laughed: “This person’s posture differs from the rumors!”
In the nearby distance, Yan Fu spoke up: “Brother Gao, why stop here? I have a Dao Technique to discuss with you, let’s head to my camp and chat!”
“Eh, no rush.” Gao Zhe waved his hand, not wanting to ride Yan Fu’s ladder, but still staring at Lin Xian: “I heard from your Rong Country that after Jiang Wang disappeared, you’re said to be the top in the Eastern Region’s Inner Mansion?”
Gao Zhe’s intent to cause trouble was already very evident.
As they passed, Wang Yiwu, Wen Lianmu, and others also paused to look.
Zhongxuan Sheng and Li Longchuan walked on the other side but said nothing.
Li Longchuan had no particular connection with Gao Zhe, while Zhongxuan Sheng quickly discerned Gao Zhe’s thoughts, unwilling to waste energy.
Gao Zhe having solidified his position as family heir, carried his confidence higher. Coming to this Star Moon Plain Battlefield was originally to earn fa and recognition. The best thod is naturally to show prowess on the battlefield, but stepping on Lin Xian, who had been to Guanhe Platform, is also one way. And safe, reliable.
Bao Bozhao, Chao Yu, and others walked away, indifferent, especially Bao Bozhao, who felt that these were junior people his brother Bao Zhongqing should be with. Zhongxuan Zun didn’t even deign to co to Star Moon Plain, and Bao Bozhao often took pride, keeping his distance from these juniors.
Moreover, geniuses from smaller countries like Xu, Zhao, Yi, Chang dared not approach, only watched from afar.
With so many young talents present, who would accept losing face and weakening montum?
A fight seed inevitable.
Yet Lin Xian, blocked by Gao Zhe, did not lift his eyelids, only calmly said: “I have never said such a thing.”
“Oh?” Gao Zhe was not surprised Lin Xian would concede, but surprised at how quickly he conceded, without any struggle, stepped forward half a step, maliciously pressing: “Now, in front of so many people, I ask you, deep down, do you think you compare to Jiang Wang?”
Lin Xian raised his eyes, looked around, and under the gaze of young prodigies from each Eastern Region country, calmly stated: “I, Lin Xian, am willing to be Jiang Qingyang’s lapdog. Before reaching Yan Dao, dare not compare with Jiang Wang!”
As these words were spoken, all the noisy, clamorous, uneasy… fell silent.
The entire place was quiet!
