Heavenly Star Chapter 194 Hostage Taking

Chapter 194 Hostage Taking

Feng Ling took a few steps forward, he smiled indifferently and said: “I thought that a murderer intruded, as it turns out, it was actually Princess Yao Feng’s brother.” He originally planned to call him his dear “Brother Wuchen”, but seeing his facial expression, he gave up, “When I visited your distinguished country that day I had wished to personally see your graceful bearing, but unfortunately you’ve travelled southwards, I didn’t have the chance to meet you, but today my wish was granted. Today since you’ve came from a faraway place, you will be our guest, can you please let go of the princess? Don’t you worry, I can guarantee you with my crown prince’s t.i.tle, no one will ever hurt you, with regards to intruding the imperial palace, and killing imperial guards, me and my father will not punish you, how about that?”

These sorts of statements were already considered as extremely lenient, which have caused a lot of people to be inwardly surprised. Intruding inside the imperial palace and killing people, these were already considered as a mortal crime that was sufficient enough to execute all of his relatives, Feng Ling had unexpectedly exempted him from this mortal crime, if this incident became a precedent, in future it might become a reason for an uproar. Feng Lie’s face was with an angry look, yet he didn’t say anything. He could clearly see that, today Ye Wuchen came here solely because of Ye ShuiYao, and not aiming against their Feng family. He being the grandson of Ye Nu, and the disciple of the G.o.d of Sword, with his ident.i.ty given the consideration, Feng Ling’s words, happened to be similarly giving the two persons the way out for this situation.

Princess Yao Feng? Ye Wuchen immediately realized that it must be referring to Ye ShuiYao. He raised his brows, with face full of cold smile facing Feng Ling he said: “Feng Ling? Crown prince? Your highness the crown prince you are indeed magnanimous, such kind consideration, Wuchen will be ashamed for being inferior.”

Feng Ling ignored the sarcasm in his words, he sincerely said: “You are willing to travel a thousand miles for your own sister, this one point Feng Ling really admired it. Today’s trespa.s.sing incident, I similarly admired it. If after I went home then suddenly heard of the news of my own relatives being forced to marry off to the most hated country, I will also be distressed, yet I wouldn’t have such kind of courage as you.” Feng Ling spoke bluntly, then with a smiling expression: “But you don’t have to worry, again using my crown prince t.i.tle, I vowed never to make princess feel unhappy in this life, moreover I wouldn’t let anybody hurt the princess, how about this?”

He thought that the reason why Ye Wuchen had rushed over here regardless of everything was solely because he was afraid that since Ye ShuiYao was compelled to marry into the Gale Nation, she might suffer from humiliation, because the two nations were originally hostile against each other, having such thought was quite normal, so in order to pacify Ye Wuchen’s heart, he did not hesitate to sacrifice his own status to make such vows, and he wanted him to personally witness that he was truly in love with Ye ShuiYao, but unfortunately…...

Ye Wuchen was still tightly holding her waist, his facial expression had eased down a bit, but his voice was still cold: “How can you make me believe you? Your Gale Nation had invaded my Tian Long Nation numerous times, so uncivilized and ruthless, if my sister married you, she will be bound to suffer from bully and humiliation!”

Feng Ling was about to speak out, Feng Ru who was restraining herself for a very long time jumped out then stood behind Feng Ling, pointing at Ye Wuchen she scolded: “Young fellow fro Ye family, my brother had already given you quite a lot of prestige, don’t be so shameless. I’m telling you, if it wasn’t for my brother, I wished this woman doesn’t exist, that way my Gale Nation will be able to flatten out your Tian Long Nation at an earlier time. Hmp, instead of expressing your grat.i.tude towards my brother, you still dare to make tyrannical abuse during my brother’s wedding, I’m telling you……”

“Shut your mouth!” Feng Ling wrinkled his brows, then shouted loudly.

“Imperial brother……” Feng Ru got distracted due to being berated, her face full of grievance.

Just step down.” Feng Ling yelled out coldly, not looking at her. Feng Ru was forced to shut up, she ruthlessly stared at Ye Wuchen, then angrily retreated back.

Ye Wuchen coldly remarked: “Where your Gale Nation had planned to attack was none of my business, I only knew that my sister is absolutely not able to marry you!”

Feng Ling shook his head, and said: “This matter had been approved by your distinguished emperor, your grandfather, and also your parents have already agreed, Princess Yao Feng had similarly agreed……”

Their agreements were not of my business!” Ye Wuchen interrupted his words, his eyes became sharper and sharper, ”Did you ever ask for my opinion!”

This words were extremely rude, it sounds like he was completely disrespecting the emperor, Feng Ling wasn’t mad, but instead with a face full of smile he said: “Then your opinion is?”

Ye Wuchen’s expression suddenly calmed down, exposing a simple smile: “Your Highness the crown prince, do you really want to know?”

“There’s no harm telling, I’m all ears. So long as you will not oppose to Princess Yao Feng marrying me, I will seriously consider your opinion.” Feng Ling similarly smiled and said. All the people was able to observe that, he was capable of resisting his temper, with humbled att.i.tude to cater to Ye Wuchen, in order to achieve Ye ShuiYao’s appreciation. Some of the people couldn’t help but sighed, affectionate persons were commonly seen, but infatuated persons were rare, with such high status and such foolish heart, if there will be another daughter of an influential family who could gain the crown prince’s favor, she will certainly enjoy a hundred years of happiness.

“Well, then you must listen carefully.” Ye Wuchen released his right arm from Ye ShuiYao, with a simple smile, he suddenly stepped forward, using one foot he kicked Feng Ling’s chest. With a sharp and clear “ka-cha” broken bone sound, Feng Ling screamed and flew out, smas.h.i.+ng towards an imperial guard behind him.

“This is my response, are you satisfied?” Ye Wuchen’s face was flat and cold, although Feng Ling’s martial skills were not weak, but still not stronger that him. With that kick a while ago, it must have at least broken his two rib bones.

“Ling-er!”

“Imperial brother!”

“Crown prince!”

The Luan Feng Hall was in a great commotion, Feng Lie’s eyes were opened very wide, pointing at Ye Wuchen as he roared: “Quickly arrest him!”

He already felt worried, because the crown prince was hurt, Feng ChaoYang still didn’t show up.

The imperial guard flocked to the front, brandis.h.i.+ng their blade as they rushed towards Ye Wuchen. Ye Wuchen hugged Ye ShuiYao tightly, gently smiled at her, swayed his body, transformed into a white shadow ---- They didn’t run out from the doorway, but instead they went inside, using the fastest speed approaching towards Feng Lie.

“Protect the Emperor!”

An imperial guard shouted, but before he could brandish his sword, the long knife in his hand was taken away forcibly by a strong force in the empty air. Ye Wuchen’s speed was too fast, before the several groups of guards could take their actions, he had already run past them.

Feng ChaoYang is the Gale Nation’s protector G.o.d, with his presence, the imperial household of the Gale Nation was never intruded by any a.s.sa.s.sin for so many years. During that time, Tian Long, Kui Shui and Cang Lan detested the Gale Nation, yet they never dared to a.s.sign any killer or a.s.sa.s.sin to proceed towards the Gale. But there’s no absolute certainty in everything, the outcome of being so dependent and trusted Feng ChaoYang was…… with Feng ChaoYang’s presence, there will be no other expert guards beside Feng Lie, or else it would mean disrespect and distrust towards Feng ChaoYang ---- this was what Ye Wuchen had perceived during his journey, so, he concluded that aside from the ordinary imperial bodyguards in the palace, there will be no other masters beside Feng Lie. In the situation wherein Feng ChaoYang being controlled by Tong Xin, if he was to capture him, it will be an easy task.

He waved the sword as he approached, suddenly a loud bang resonated overhead, the incomparably solid roof of the palace hall collapsed down, a boundless tremendous pressure came attacking from the top of his head. Ye Wuchen immediately felt his head being rigidly pushed down by a thick iron panel, being able to display such grandeur, aside from Feng ChaoYang of the Gale Nation, there’s no other people who could be like that. He had planned to hurt Feng Lie, indeed he will experience his full force obstruction.

Ye Wuchen didn’t lift up his head, also he didn’t evade, with gritted teeth he carried the heavy weight as he proceeded ahead, he trusted Tong Xin!

Almost simultaneously, another piece of palace hall roof collapsed down, causing people to cry out in alarm. And during this time, the entire Luan Feng Hall didn’t become brighter due to the big holes on the roof, but instead distinctly went dark a bit. A pair of pitch-black eyes was staring at Feng Lie during this moment, causing his body violently trembled a bit as if being electrocuted.

Feng ChaoYang was terrified in his mind, he was fully aware of the frightening eyes of the Woman Punished by the Heavens, during those years it was this pair of eyes that had created a lot of b.l.o.o.d.y h.e.l.l. With the stare of both dark eyes, it would take a second for Feng Lie’s body to explode and die. He simply have no time to fight against Ye Wuchen, he coagulated his full strength, thrusting his blade towards Tong Xin…...

Boom…...

The Shattering Wind Blade slashed out a terrible breath of air, the invisible attack caused a deep ditch to emerge up in the ground surface, permitting the roof of the palace hall to show up a strip mark its hollow s.p.a.ce. With just a simple hit, killing more than ten imperial guards, dying a terrible death. And Tong Xin, just simply inclined her body to the side, as long as she was not directly hit, that aftermath of the power simply wouldn’t create any damage on her.

The moment that Feng Lie got stared by Tong Xin’s eyes, his vision became empty, when he suddenly regained his vision, a knife was already pressed onto his neck, Ye Wuchen pulled Ye ShuiYao behind his back in one hand, the other hand pressing the sword on Feng Lie’s neck, using a mocking gaze as he swept through it. Those imperial guards holding swords, princes and princesses, civil and military officials were stupefied. Under several hundreds of guards, as well as the G.o.d of War’s protection, a sword was still being pressed down on the emperor’s neck.

Feng Ling already threw up two mouthfuls of fresh blood, the corner of his mouth was still stained with blood, he was covering his painful chest, with hateful voice he said: “Let go of my father!”

“Quickly release His Majesty!”

“Are you planning to rebel against us!”

“The wild person from Ye family, do you know what you are doing right now? Quickly release His Majesty!”

The people were berating him all together, yet they couldn’t hide the fear in their faces, still they couldn’t believe that their emperor was being taken hostage by someone from the Tian Long Nation before their very own eyes. This was simply the greatest humiliation. Those imperial guards were panic-stricken, yet they refused to act against him for fear of causing any harm, didn’t dare to step forward.

Feng ChaoYang and Tong Xin had stopped fighting each other. Feng ChaoYang knew that the emperor had been taken hostage, if he was to continue fighting with this Woman Punished by the Heavens, he will not just be defeated, but many people will be murdered as the consequence. What amazed him was, this time the Woman Punished by the Heavens was completely unlike the one that he had known before, not only that she wasn’t the demon-like woman who will kill anyone in her path, but instead when it’s time to pull back, she will immediately pull back, then concealed herself. The fancy trick that she had shown a while ago, only made ordinary people saw a black shadow flashed past, unable to clearly see her actual figure.

Feng Lie wasn’t panicky, using the corner of his eyes to glance back, he coldly snorted: “You are a youngster indeed, although you deserve praise for your courage, yet you disregard the consequences, in the Gale Nation, you dared to take me as the hostage, even if you died a thousand cuts it will still not enough!”

“Really? But if I simply moved this knife a little bit, you will not live to see my lingering death anymore.” Ye Wuchen responded with a cold smile, slightly moved the sword a bit, threatening all the panic-stricken princes and officials.

“Humph! I advise you better let me go, I will guarantee your safety as you leave this place, for the sake of your wholly devoted impulsive act and your eagerness to protect your sister, as long as you will never set foot on the Gale Nation ever again, I can forget and not bear recriminations against your act of taking me hostage and injuring my Ling-er, your sister will still be the imperial wife of the Gale Nation’s crown prince! But if you obstinately persist in going about things the wrong way……” Feng Lie’s eyes constricted: “No one among you will ever leave this place alive, tomorrow I shall send a written war challenge to your Tian Long Nation again, to flatten out your Tian Long!”

The leader of the imperial guards who was wearing heavy armor proceeded a step closer, in a mighty voice he yelled out: “Humph, if you dare to hurt even a strand of hair of His Majesty……”

Chi!

The steel knife in Ye Wuchen’s hand interlocked, slas.h.i.+ng a deep wound against Feng Lie’s neck, blood spilled out, Feng Lie twisted his face painfully.

“What will you do now?” Ye Wuchen looked at the leader of the imperial guards, his face exposing a merciless smile.

That leader of guards’ face turned grey, he hurriedly retreated back, all the peoples’ expression hugely changed as well.
